Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Master...Master, Little Fish understands...!"

Lin Xiaoyu suppressed her fear, slipped out from behind Lu Feng, and approached the tomb entrance opposite her again, but her steps remained cautious.

"If you're really scared, you can go back to the village and wait for me."

Seeing this, Lu Feng spoke again.

Lin Xiaoyu stubbornly shook her head, seemingly unwilling to lose face in front of the other party, and mustered her courage again.

"Master, Little Fish is alright!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Xiaoyu quickened her pace, but Lu Feng frowned slightly, as if he had sensed something, and suddenly leaped forward.

"Be careful!"

bass!bass!bass!

With a piercing whooshing sound, countless dark arrows suddenly shot out from all around, instantly covering Lin Xiaoyu's vital points and leaving him with no way to escape!

Swish!

At the critical moment, Lu Feng also flashed and immediately arrived in front of Lin Xiaoyu. At the same time, layers of blood-red dragon scale armor appeared around his body, easily blocking the countless dark arrows that came at him.

Clang clang clang...!

Click!

The hidden arrows broke apart one after another, unable to penetrate the defense of the dragon scale armor. Just as Lu Feng landed, the originally calm and still ground suddenly cracked open, revealing a series of chilling spikes!

"There are other mechanisms involved?"

Lu Feng's expression hardened.

The next moment, his Yuan Power surged out from his body, then condensed into a pair of Yuan Power wings, and he landed easily on the other side like a nimble eagle.

"That was close! It seems that safely entering the ruins of the Prince Zhong's Mansion won't be so easy..."

Lu Feng gently held Lin Xiaoyu in his arms, his face solemn at this moment.

"Oh...!"

With her arms tightly wrapped around Lu Feng's neck, Lin Xiaoyu seemed to remember something and quickly broke free from his embrace, her pretty face as red as an apple.

"Master, Master... I'm sorry...!"

Lin Xiaoyu looked at Lu Feng with a guilty expression, then bowed repeatedly, as if she knew that she was the one who had dragged him down and caused him to fall into danger time and time again.

"It's alright, let's go."

Lu Feng didn't take Lin Xiaoyu's apology to heart and just walked towards the entrance of the tomb.

"Hey! Master, wait for the little fish...!"

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyu quickly followed, afraid of falling behind.

...

The interior of the Zhongwang Tomb site is similar to the outside world, with nothing particularly unique about it, but it is exceptionally vast, as if it were a world of its own, where you can even see birds and beasts, plants and streams.

However, since this tomb is the burial place of the dead, the corpse atmosphere is exceptionally strong. Therefore, most of the creatures that dwell here are carrion-eating creatures, mostly poisonous insects, snakes and ants, which are not suitable for ordinary creatures to live in.

In front of a small hill, Lu Feng was resting cross-legged, while Lin Xiaoyu ran around curiously, stopping to observe from time to time, seemingly standing guard for him.

"Master, are you thirsty? Let me get you some water!"

Lin Xiaoyu took small, quick steps and bent down to greet Lu Feng with a smile. Her ponytails hung down her chest, making her look very cute.

Although this underground world is filled with the stench of death, it also hides many underground springs, so finding a clean water source is not difficult.

"Okay, be careful, don't stray too far."

Lu Feng glanced at the other person and nodded slightly.

"Little Fish understands!"

After receiving Lu Feng's instructions, Lin Xiaoyu turned and left happily, disappearing from sight in no time.

...

Before we knew it, another hour had passed.

Lu Feng finally stood up, slowly exhaling a breath of stale air, seemingly having recovered most of his strength.

However, he could not find Lin Xiaoyu anywhere; it was as if she had vanished into thin air.

"Strange, why hasn't Xiaoyu come back yet..."

Lu Feng frowned and immediately released his Yuan Power to sense the surrounding area, but he could not find any trace of Lin Xiaoyu's presence within a radius of dozens of miles.

"Could something have happened...?"

A sudden sense of foreboding arose in Lu Feng's heart. Just as he was about to get up to look for someone, a sinister, low laugh came from afar.

"Hey Lu, are you looking for this brat?"

The next moment, several figures appeared out of thin air and surrounded Lu Feng. The one on the left was dressed in a black robe with a thin and long face. He was none other than Ji Rufeng, the former head of the Punishment Hall of the Tomb Raiders.

Beside Ji Rufeng was Lin Xiaoyu, who was bound hand and foot and gagged. She was glaring at him with grief and indignation, but she couldn't utter a single word.

"So it was you..."

Upon seeing that the person who came was Ji Rufeng, Lu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, then revealed a cold smile, "Last time you slipped through the net, but this time you won't be so lucky."

"That guy surnamed Lu, it's still uncertain who will live and who will die!"

Faced with Lu Feng's contempt, Ji Rufeng's expression also darkened, and his anger surged.

"Oh, so you've come here seeking revenge?"

"Unfortunately, you don't seem to have that ability."

Lu Feng's lips curled slightly, his smile still forced and insincere.

"You sharp-tongued little beast, you're asking for death!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Rufeng was furious and was about to make a move, but was stopped by a burly man in tight-fitting clothes next to him.

"Brother Ji, could this young man be the traitor to the Tomb Raiders Sect you spoke of, the scourge that even Sha Wuqiu was willing to issue a kill order to eliminate?"

The man in the tight-fitting clothes was tall and imposing, exuding a menacing aura. A large knife scar was exposed on his left chest, suggesting that he was a ruthless person who had spent many years navigating the dangers of life. Moreover, his cultivation had reached the third level of the Condensation Realm, far surpassing that of Lu Feng!

Behind him followed a black-robed youth with a similar appearance, though slightly shorter. The two appeared to be twin brothers, and the latter was also quite strong, having reached the third level of the Condensation Realm.

"That's right, this young man is Lu Feng!"

Ji Rufeng gritted his teeth, cupped his hands in a fist salute to the two men, and said in a vicious tone, "I hope you two gentlemen will lend a hand and help me get rid of this scoundrel. I will reward you handsomely afterwards!"

The two opponents were not ordinary martial artists, but the Zeng brothers, who were notorious on the list of villains!

Although the Zeng brothers are ranked at the bottom of the villain list, only number 50, their strength is quite remarkable. Even a fourth-level expert of the Condensation Realm would not dare to say that they would definitely win against them.

Besides, the Zeng brothers are extremely audacious. In the past, they even dared to rob the imperial grain shipments escorted by the Dongyun Kingdom government in public. Naturally, they would not be afraid of Lu Feng, a mere tenth-level Body Refinement Realm martial artist.

"Hmph, a mere lackey at the tenth level of Body Refinement Realm? I could crush him with a flick of my wrist!"

He also glanced at Lu Feng and found that the other party's Yuan Power cultivation was only at the tenth level of Body Refinement Realm. The elder brother Zeng Hongming couldn't help but grin and sneer, his eyes full of contempt.

"Brother, there's no need for you to deal with these small fry personally. Let me handle it!"

The second brother, Zeng Hongyi, standing to the side, also wore a cold smile, clearly not taking Lu Feng seriously.

"I'll give you a way out..."

Despite the Zeng brothers' threats, Lu Feng remained calm. He merely pointed to Lin Xiaoyu, who was being held hostage, and said in a serene tone, "Release her, or...die!"
