The Spirit World

Chapter 711 I Will Definitely Get First Place

Chang Yufeng slowly walked out of the shadows and walked towards the light under everyone's gaze.

He remained calm and expressionless as he looked at a girl named Lin.

"Lin'er, I'm here to save you."

His eyes softened from this sentence onwards, Lin'er's hands were held tightly, she only reached Locke's waist, but her hands were pulled to her waist as well.

She still had feeling in her right hand, and she slowly moved forward to struggle free, but Locke held her tightly, preventing her from getting away.

"I..." Lin'er took a step forward, but was unable to leave the platform even a step.

Everyone was in an uproar, not knowing what was going on in the current situation. They were quiet, like fireflies in the dark.

"What?" Freddy didn't hear the sentence clearly. He looked for Lili Marlene's expression, but Lili Marlene was looking at the boy named Jack with some surprise and some inexplicable worry.

Instead, it was Shor who responded to him by shaking his head, to express that he did not understand the situation.

The protagonist this time, Lin'er, had her eyes flickering. She knew what happened, and she also knew what happened. However, Lin'er saw Monica and many more innocent girls in the audience, those little people who were trafficked by their parents, who were following her gaze with very scared eyes, making it impossible for her to dodge.

"It's okay... look at me..." Chang Yufeng's eyes were as calm as a deep pool.

He understood that the girl was not mature enough and didn't know how to deal with such things.

He could tell at a glance what was being threatened by others.

Perhaps everyone here knew that what she revealed was more or less forced and awkward.

In fact, few people know how to deal with being threatened by others... It would be great if we could inform the Imperial Household Department... But the Imperial Household Department cannot do that much.

If the Ministry of Internal Affairs could help, there would not be an organization like Longxinghui. Lin'er and Longxugong, who were threatened at the cost of their lives, were indeed strangled.

If it were someone else, facing the death of someone with whom they had no blood relationship or even no connection at all, at most they would say it’s a pity or express their condolences.

Because there is no connection, because there is no blood relationship, life and death are not important. This cannot be blamed on anyone. Who should be blamed?
Is it because the murderous blade is too sharp?

It’s not me, it’s the year, it’s the same thing.

Don’t say that people are cold-hearted. We can only say that evil is the worst of all evils!
Lin Er really didn't know how to deal with being threatened by others. She didn't know how to deal with Monica, and those who followed her here...

No, they are the girls who were trafficked here by their parents. Their lives and deaths may be worthless in front of Locke... or in front of most people.

Of course, if they bought it, it would definitely be worth it. The flood spread plague to a place whose name Lin'er didn't even know, washed away the fields, and ruined life.

There are also girls who were sold to individuals. They were either raised as wives or resold again. In any case, they no longer have a normal life.

Perhaps, sometimes they are lower than dogs.

But there is no way, in this world some people live a wonderful life, some have a happy family, while others are broken up.

Some people are rich and powerful, while others are as lowly as ants.

The so-called ordinary people pursue fairness, but that’s just a pursuit.

Some people keep talking about "sparkling", but this is just a word that people of his class can shout out. A young girl who is resold to an old man can't dream of blooming flowers.

A person who is busy all day long and lives a life of drunkenness and dreams cannot shout out his dreams.

A person who can only spend his life in endless medicine will not yearn for the arrival of starry night.

You shouldn't be too positive.
They need flowers, they need dreams, they need to cross the starry night, because without these, their lives will be nothing but day and night after day, without sunlight.

It's not right to be too sad...

Some people can understand... that their lives have already been predetermined... that's why the word "fate" needs to be mentioned. If that is their fate, will they be willing to accept it?

They won't be willing.

If they were rich and prosperous, if they received a good education, if they were deeply loved, if they could pursue their dreams without worries, would they be willing?
They might be willing.

"You can't save her." Locke turned Lin'er's hand outward, trying to break her entire arm. He stood very straight. At this time, his hand was like a trigger. With just a slight pull, Lin'er's hand would be torn off.

Lin'er's arm bones were under unprecedented pressure. Her elbow could not be turned into a normal arm, so she could only be turned upside down and flipped over by Locke.

"Luo..." The word "Ken" was about to come out of Chang Yufeng's mouth.

All that could be heard was a crackling sound, and the bones of Lin'er's entire right arm were pushed forward rapidly, about to be dislocated.

"Do you know why you can't beat me? Hahahaha..." Locke laughed, and amid Lin'er's crying, he threw the delicate arm at the feet of all the spectators.

“He… … ”

Chang Yufeng quietly looked at Lin'er on the stage, standing there quietly, and after a while, he exhaled...

He anticipated possible scenarios...

But it is impossible to take a step forward.

He looked at Lin'er looking at him. Lin'er's eyes seemed to be full of him, but without so much desire.

She didn't think he could save him, nor did she hope he could save her, because she cared about the lives of those little girls who were being sold...

He might be somewhat glad that he stood there, saying nothing and never moving forward, while Lin'er's hand was lowered and she bowed to all the guests.

Locke announced that she would participate in the next Dragon Tournament, and told all the families in front of them that Lyn K. Locke would win the first place in the Swordsman Group, with her sword pointed at Fran.

Locke looked at Chang Yufeng standing in the corridor, quietly watching everything he announced, but Locke couldn't think of why he did this, and frowned.

Until he had finished announcing the matter, she grabbed Lin'er's hand and pulled him away.

Lin'er, on the contrary, breathed a sigh of relief and followed Locke, leaving the middle position. She walked down from the brightly lit podium almost calmly and quietly, just like Chang Yufeng, without any emotional ups and downs.

"Jack!" Lili Marlene shouted softly, waving her hand to signal Chang Yufeng to look over.

Chang Yufeng calmly watched Locke's "speech". All the families, big and small, applauded, but he remained indifferent. It was only when Locke took Lin'er away and the banquet continued that he came to his senses a little.

It would be an adult's behavior for him to do nothing. A child would rush to the stage to save him, quarrel with Locke, and get Lin'er hurt. Lin'er would definitely be hurt too... because in Locke's eyes, she was nothing more than a lowly pawn, not worth mentioning.

He saw Lili Marlene waving at her. He knew Lili Marlene, so he trotted over. "What's wrong? Lili Marlene, big sister." Chang Yufeng called her sweetly, as he should. He never hesitated to address kind people.

"What are you doing here?"

Lili Marlene saw the fan on Chang Yufeng's waist.

Freddy and Shor also glanced at Lili Marlene's waist. Lili Marlene's fan was behind the boy's waist.

They were quite confused, but said nothing.

"I just delivered something and passed by here." Chang Yufeng glanced at the kind-hearted Lilia. Lilia leaned lazily on her sister like a panda, looking at Chang Yufeng with a very strange look.

This look was like smelling a very pleasant scent, quite intoxicating. She didn't understand love, she just felt that this boy was too special...

His dark eyes are like the sea of ​​stars, gentle as jade, and lovable. He is not an ordinary person, and he deserves to enjoy the beauty of the world.

All I can say is that Lilia was keenly aware of his unique charm bestowed by heaven and earth.

"I don't think so..." Lilimaren did not expose Chang Yufeng's lie. Katutan had specially led people into this inner hall.

"Well, actually I was lost...haha..." Chang Yufeng scratched his head. He looked at Lilia again. Lilia was a little frightened and dodged away in panic.

This made Shor and Freddy look at each other before they began to look at Chang Yufeng seriously.

Chang Yufeng was indeed so special. He was wearing a very thin piece of clothing. It was not a coarse linen garment, but a better brocade. It was obvious that his parents were not poor and were willing to spend money on their son, and a lot of it.

"Well, if you are not invited, then you should not be so conspicuous. There is a very important meeting going on here." Lili Marlene did not want Jack to be kicked out. Discussing the matters of the Dragon Conference was naturally an important matter. At any meeting anywhere, uninvited outsiders should not show up. It was a respect for the meeting.

She understood this as well as Jack, but she didn't want Jack to be disturbed by this situation: "However, you have been invited now, so there is no need to worry about it. You sit...uh..." Lilimaren glanced at Lilia, who looked at her sister straight in the eye and glanced at the empty seat on her left.

"Sit next to Lilia. Wait until the banquet is over. I'll take you back..."

Lilimaren pointed to the position next to Lilia. From the left, she had to pass through Shor and Freddy. Shor and Freddy had very strange looks in their eyes, one was serious, and the other was laughing uncontrollably.

Chang Yufeng walked to the right and came to Lilimaren obediently. He looked at Lilia, who seemed to turn her head to look at her specially... a little... blushing...

Being stared at like this by Lilia, his face suddenly became hot, and then calmed down...

There were leftover desserts on the table. Freddy ate almost every one of them but didn't finish them. So, this table was not as elegant as their status. However, since food is made to be eaten, they didn't care that much.

But to be honest, they didn't eat voraciously, nor did they show any disdain for Chang Yufeng.

They are more ordinary than anyone else. This feeling makes Chang Yufeng a little dazed for a moment.

He noticed that Lilia was looking at him.

This bothered him a little... a small bit, which made him purse his lips. When he looked at Lilia, she sat up straight again, stretched out her skirt, and smoothed the light blue carefully selected skirt straight. She seemed to do this subconsciously.

Lilimaren and Shor talked about the Dragon Convention. Shor answered him. Freddy drank his wine and smiled slowly. It seemed that the wine was not very tasty. He frowned and smiled bitterly.

Chang Yufeng didn't have any extra topics to talk about with them... So, this period of time was a little awkward. Lili Marlene saw it and put the cake in front of him and asked him to eat it. He had no choice but to eat it.

"Your name is... Jack..." Freddy glanced at Chang Yufeng and put down the bottle.

"Yes……"

Lilimaren and Shor stopped talking and looked at Freddy, trying to see what Freddy would ask.

asked the little boy.

Lilia also slowly began to reach out to take the cakes. Those cakes were specially prepared for children. There were actually a lot of dishes, but they didn't eat them.

"Did you participate in the Dragon Expedition?" Freddy glanced at Chang Yufeng. He noticed the pause between Shor and Lilimaren.

"I've participated..." Chang Yufeng put down the piece of cake that tasted pretty good. He just glanced at the more than ten dishes on the table. Lilimaren took a small bowl and helped him to serve five of them, one by one, and placed them in front of him.

Lilia also reached out to grab the bowl, and Xiaoer took it for her.

"What group?" Freddy kept staring at Chang Yufeng's profile. The more he looked, the more he felt that the little boy's face was so delicate.

Petite, exquisite? This word, so strange, appeared in Freddy's eyes.

"Swordsman Team."

"Oops……"

Chang Yufeng answered straightforwardly, while Lilimaren and Freddy both shouted "Oops".

"Why?" Chang Yufeng asked. He understood, but that didn't stop him from asking.

"What is your goal? Is it the Knight Academy in Wenti County?" Freddy glanced at Shore, who pursed his lips and said nothing.

"I want to get first place."

Chang Yufeng said this lightly.

He repeated it for them to hear.

"My goal is to be the first in the swordsman group. I want to go to Fran to study."

"What?" Freddy didn't hear it twice or think his ears had heard it clearly.

"Do you know what you are saying..." Shaw's seriousness was also revealed, but he felt it was not good to be too harsh on an outsider, so he restrained himself a little.

"Jack..." Lilimaren helped Chang Yufeng serve a bowl of dishes with many different kinds of meat.

She didn't know how to tell Jack about this. Hitting the target of a little boy was not something that could be said lightly.

Because she didn't know how she would explain to Lillia, who was training so hard, if it was Lyn K. Loken who participated in the mage competition.

"I heard that Lin is going to participate in the Dragon Race and win first place.

Chang Yufeng said this quietly, as calmly as he watched Lin'er being pulled away by Locke.

"She is very strong, but I will definitely beat her and get first place."
