Lone Walker

Chapter 34
King Xiao's convoy has been traveling for two days, and in the distance, a huge phoenix statue can be vaguely seen in the east.

This is the unique mark of Xifeng Valley. Lin Feng thought in his heart that it should not be far away, and he estimated that it will arrive in a while.

Along the way, Lin Feng practiced and consolidated his cultivation in the middle stage of the Immortal Ascension Boundary, and at the same time chatted with the soldiers in the team, consciously or unconsciously inquiring about Lin Yan's deeds back then.

Of course, in order to confuse the public, he also inquired about Ye Huang, Ye Hua, and Ye Ling.

However, this strategy had little effect in the end. When the soldiers heard the name Lin Yan, they seemed to have seen a ghost, and kept silent. Occasionally, they met a few bold people, but they couldn't ask any useful information.

"Royal!"

There was the sound of reining in the horse in front, and a high wall blocked the road. Before we knew it, we had already arrived at Xifeng Valley. The leading non-commissioned officer called for the customs clearance documents for entering the city, and the convoy entered the city in a mighty manner.

Although this place is named Valley, it has a half-field atmosphere. On the contrary, the soldiers and horses here are strong, and the prosperity is not much lower than that of the imperial capital. This also shows that the Xifeng clan is powerful. Well-fed.

Looking at the crowds, tall restaurants, and luxurious shops, Lin Feng couldn't help but think, the place chosen by King Xiao is really good, and if he can really spend the rest of his life here, it wouldn't be too much of a grievance.

The mansion of the Xifeng family is located under the huge phoenix statue, and now the convoy continues to move forward, and it has arrived by now.

"Send someone to pass it on..."

The third prince, Ye Ling, had already got off the carriage, and two daughters, Concubine Xi and Princess Jing'an, came down with him.

At this moment, Ye Ling frowned slightly, thinking in his heart, this Xifenggu is too ignorant of the rules. Although I came here for something, I am still a prince after all. It's too inappropriate.

"Your Highness!"

Seeing Ye Ling's displeasure, Princess Xi gently put her hand in his palm and comforted him.

"It's okay, I'm not angry!"

Seeing his concubine's apologetic and aggrieved expression, Ye Ling's heart softened. For her sake, he could bear it.

"Your Highness... Your Highness..."

However, just as Ye Ling was comforting his wife, the soldier who was sent to communicate came back scrambling like crazy.

"Dead...all dead!"

There was a look of fear in his eyes, as if he was still in shock!
"what!"

Princess Jing'an, the highest-cultivated princess, immediately flew in, and then said that King Xiao and the others ran quickly into the mansion.

In the courtyard of Xifeng Mansion, fresh blood was all over the ground, on trees, houses, and tables...

The corpses all over the ground were lying in various places...

"Daddy, grandpa!"

Princess Xi rushed to the hall of the mansion...

An old man in his seventies, a middle-aged man in his forties, and his family members and children all collapsed in the hall, and they are all out of breath at this moment...

"Who is it! Who is it!"

The normally elegant and generous Princess Xi has completely lost her former dignity. Her snow-white dress is stained with blood, and even her pretty face has a trace of blood, which is shocking.

"Yu'er..."

Ye Ling felt distressed and wanted to reach out to hug her, but hesitated again. Those hands stopped halfway and never stretched out again.

He knew that all of this should be related to him, and the other party made it clear that he didn't want him to die well...

Because of this, his guilt towards Xiyu was even deeper, if it wasn't for his weakness, the current situation would not have been caused.

"Am I, a curse star!"

Ye Ling suddenly felt very tired, and walked out of the hall of Xifeng Mansion in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.

"Left Guard, please, look at our Highness!"

Seeing Ye Lingsheng's disinterested look, the internal officer immediately ran to Lin Feng, wanting to kneel down and beg.

"Neiguan Yin doesn't have to be like this, I will take good care of him!"

A breeze blew past, straightening Yin Neiguan's bent knee. After he realized it, Lin Feng's figure followed Ye Ling out of the hall.

…………

Outside the hall of Xifeng Mansion, in a courtyard.

Ye Ling was dressed in white, standing under a tree, staring at the corpses all over the ground, without saying a word.

"Your Highness came to Xifeng Valley just to find Elder Xi, to ask him to come out of the mountains and enter the palace to meet the saint, and then give up taking the throne, and come here to be a prince of Fengjiang?"

Lin Feng's voice came from behind Ye Ling.

"Let's not hide from the left guard, this king is indeed what the guard thinks. It's been too long. I have been fighting with my elder brother for ten years, and I'm tired... Actually, when Lin Yan was killed, I already had the idea of ​​​​retiring. I will I pretended to be ignorant of government affairs and wanton and wanton, just hoping that my brother would give up his vigilance and take care of politics with peace of mind."

"If His Highness retreats, wouldn't Lin Yan die in vain? Now, with the addition of the Xifeng clan, the entire clan will also die in vain! Has Your Highness ever thought about whether those souls who died unjustly because of you can forgive you?" What you are doing now, dreaming back at midnight, has your Highness met them before?"

"who are you!"

A cold light flashed in Ye Ling's eyes. He had heard a little about Lin Feng's investigation of Lin Yan's deeds in recent days, but now that he brought up the past, he couldn't help feeling vigilant.

"Son of an old friend!"

Lin Feng answered simply.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I won't harm Your Highness, or I won't save His Highness over and over again!"

"The son of the old man, the son of the old man... you are!"

Ye Ling kept muttering, thinking about it in his heart, and the identity of the other party was immediately revealed, and then his eyes widened suddenly, as if he couldn't believe it.

"Your Highness thinks I am, and I am!"

Lin Feng interrupted Ye Ling.

The two of them knew very well that Ye Ling was very sure now, people's thinking is often like this, the most important person will always be put first, now Lin Feng puts Lin Yan first, and the Xifeng clan behind Ye Ling, who has a delicate mind, sees it in his eyes, but his heart is already as clear as a mirror.

"I'm sorry about Lin Shuai's matter. I tried my best, but in the end I couldn't recover. I know your reason for coming. I will tell you everything when I return to the palace."

The sharpness in Ye Ling's eyes disappeared, replaced by expressions of apology, sympathy, and pity.

"You have suffered a lot these years..."

In terms of seniority, Ye Ling and Lin Yan are of the same generation, so they can be regarded as Lin Feng's uncle. This old-fashioned sentence, coming out of his mouth, also has a taste of family affection.

"Your sister, where is Lin Meng?"

Ye Ling asked again.

"She's dead, she died in the Emperor's Mausoleum!"

"Who did it?"

"Black Dragon!"

"He belongs to Ye Hua, and his cultivation base is very high. If you want to take revenge, you must be careful and don't act rashly."

There was concern in Ye Ling's eyes, and today's Lin Feng saw it in his eyes, but he also had an unexplainable taste. The probing of the power of the primordial spirit let him know that Ye Ling was not hypocritical, it was sincere, but Lin Yan's death, and Lin Meng's death, made him extremely repulsive, and he could not accept this kind of concern.

"Your Highness, go back and persuade Concubine Xi, she should be worried about you after you have been out for so long..."

Lin Feng didn't want to continue this topic, so he brought out the princess.

"Xi Yu..."

A trace of confusion appeared in Ye Ling's eyes...

"Will she still forgive me? It's my fault that he has no relatives now..."

"Your Highness is worrying too much. Doesn't she still have you? If she loses you, then she is truly unaccompanied. The one-night couple is a hundred days of kindness. The person she needs most now is you!"

"A one-night couple, a hundred days of grace..."

Ye Ling read this sentence, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"You're right, a one-night couple with a hundred days of grace, my husband has done nothing in the past few years, I can't let her bear all these pains alone!"

It really is a word to wake up the dreamer...

Ye Ling, who had figured everything out, hurried back...
