Permanent Martial Arts - Chapter 131
Chapter 131 Protect
Swoosh.
Seeing that Zhang Zifeng had left, Hao Shiyi also let go of the handle of the saber on his back. He wouldn’t use this saber easily. Once it was used, blood would be shed. This saber had already killed countless demons, and even Divine Realm demons. It wouldn’t be afraid of Legate Zhang Zifeng at all. Although Legate Zhang Zifeng had left, everyone still didn’t dare to move. This was no joke. Dragon Rider Hao Shiyi could “trounce” even Legate Zhang Zifeng. His strength was evident.
Who knew what kind of a temper Hao Shiyi had?
Hao Shiyi glanced at the surroundings, then said in a low voice, “All the inhuman martial artists can leave now. Go back to where you came from.”
It was indeed very easy for something to break out with so many inhumans gathered together. Hao Shiyi was too famous. With a glance from him, everyone lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes. Hence, many inhumans bade farewell to Lin Feng one by one. Lin Feng expressed his gratitude to each one of them, even exchanging contact information. After all, those who could respond to his call and come to Stone City to assist him were all passionate martial artists. Lin Feng naturally had to treat them with respect. After many people had left, Hao Shiyi looked at Lin Feng.
Whoosh.
The giant dragon flapped its wings and flew directly in front of Lin Feng. The huge head of the dragon was like a small mountain, and even its breaths felt like gusts of strong wind.
If the dragon swiped its claw at Lin Feng, its pure strength would crush Lin Feng into pieces. No matter how strong his regenerative ability was, he could not recover. After all, the undying characteristic did not make him truly undying.
Long Duo hurriedly pulled Lin Feng and bowed to Hao Shiyi. “Greetings, Lord Hao Shiyi.”
At any rate, Long Duo was once Hao Shiyi’s subordinate. Hence, Hao Shiyi nodded and said, “Long Duo, you haven’t improved at all in the past few years. You’re still at the Second Level of the Metamorphic Realm. You have to work harder in the future and strive to break through to the Third Level of the Metamorphic Realm soon.”
“I’ll definitely work hard, but I’m just not talented enough.”
Long Duo was also very embarrassed. Back when he was under Hao Shiyi’s command, he was already at the Second Level of the Metamorphic Realm. Now that so many years had passed, he was actually still at the Second Level of the Metamorphic Realm.
At this moment, Lin Feng stepped forward and said, “Lin Feng greets Lord Dragon Rider. Thank you for saving me just now, Lord Dragon Rider.”
This was truly a life-saving favor. Legate Zhang Zifeng had really wanted to kill him just now. Naturally, he was very grateful to Hao Shiyi.
However, Hao Shiyi did not say anything. Instead, he sized Lin Feng up from head to toe. After a while, he said, “Your temper is a little like mine. You’re unwilling to bow down to a Divine Realm expert. However, you don’t have to thank me. You’ll probably hate me later.”
“Huh?”
Lin Feng was a little confused, not knowing why Hao Shiyi would say that. Hao Shiyi’s expression turned serious. “Lin Feng, you incited many inhuman experts and killed an ordinary person in public. That is a serious crime. Come with me.”
Long Duo panicked. He had invited Hao Shiyi to save Lin Feng. Why was Hao Shiyi trying to capture Lin Feng now?
Hence, he hurriedly said, “Lord Hao Shiyi, there’s a reason behind this matter. Moreover, the Legate and the law enforcement team were really going too far. Lin Feng is also the holder of the Hero of Humanity Medal, and he’s a genius student of our Myriad Academy!”
Long Duo was really anxious. Who knew what Hao Shiyi was trying to do by taking Lin Feng away?
“Long Duo, this is what the Sage asked! Being guilty means being guilty. How can it possibly be defended?”
Hao Shiyi glared. Even without anger, he exuded an imposing aura, daunting as a sea of corpses and blood. This was especially so, when the battle between Hao Shiyi and the Legate was still vivid in their minds.
Roar.
The massive dragon also seemed to sense a trace of its master’s anger, so it roared and stared at Long Duo in an unfriendly manner. “How could Lord Sage…”
Long Duo was stunned. He opened his mouth, but hesitated. The Sage had personally given the order. What could he do?
At this moment, however, Lin Feng smiled and said to Long Duo beside him, “Chief Commander, don’t worry. My Hero of Humanity Medal was approved by Lord Sage. I’ll make a trip with Lord Dragon Rider. Everything will be fine.”
“All right, come on up. I won’t resort to violence. Also, Long Duo, you guys will return to Dragonlith City immediately. Don’t linger.”
“But if people from the government faction use force…”
“With me around, who can hurt Lin Feng?”
Long Duo eventually nodded and led the inhuman experts of the Dragon Mountain Base onto the spaceship, returning to Dragonlith City.
Lin Feng also jumped onto the dragon’s back. This was a Divine Realm demon. It was also the first time he’s seen such a fearsome demon at such a close distance.
Then, the giant dragon flapped its wings and flew out of the villa, leaving the policemen in the villa looking at each other in dismay.
Now that the villa area had been reduced to rubble, the owners of those villas would definitely cause trouble. When the time came, who would be blamed for this? At the thought of this, Chief Liu felt a headache coming on.
The Imperial Hotel, the top-notch hotel in Stone City, was rather stunned when the giant dragon descended. Fortunately, with the “privileges” of inhuman experts, the Imperial Hotel was long prepared to welcome Hao Shiyi.
Hao Shiyi was not very particular about these ostentatious appearances. He led Lin Feng to the room upstairs.
“Stay here for the time being. Don’t go anywhere except the hotel.”
“Understood.”
Lin Feng nodded, looking calm. Hao Shiyi became a little curious instead. He asked softly, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ve locked you up here?”
Lin Feng smiled and said, “I’m very grateful towards Lord Dragon Rider.”
“What are you grateful for?”
“Lord Dragon Rider is doing this to protect me, not to put me under house arrest.”
Lin Feng’s words made Hao Shiyi nod a couple of times. He said with a smile, “You’re an interesting lad. So you’re not that idiotic after all. However, since you know that I’m doing this to protect you, are you aware of how much trouble you’ve caused this time?”
Lin Feng shook his head and said, “I was just doing what I should do. If Lord Dragon Rider’s lifelong comrade also suffered such unjust treatment, I believe Lord Dragon Rider won’t stand by and do nothing either.”
“That’s right. If my lifelong comrade had suffered such an injustice, that Zhang Zifeng wouldn’t have been able to leave alive today. Lad, you’re not bad. No wonder Lord Sage asked me to come and protect you.”
Lin Feng was slightly surprised as well. So Hao Shiyi had not come to Stone City because of Long Duo’s request. That made sense. Even if Long Duo was once under Hao Shiyi’s command, how could he have persuaded a Divine Realm expert like Hao Shiyi?
So it was because of the Invincible Fist Sage.
“I’m thankful to the Lord Sage. However, I have another question. How long do I need to stay here?”
Although Lin Feng knew that Hao Shiyi was doing this to protect him, staying in the hotel was not a long-term solution. Moreover, he still wanted to go home to take a look.
“Heh, lad, now you know to be scared? Don’t worry, you won’t need to stay for long. The Nine Sages have already personally convened a meeting because of your matter. Once the Sages have come to a consensus, you will naturally be informed.”
With that, Hao Shiyi left of his own accord. Lin Feng smiled helplessly. He had no choice but to wait quietly now.
