The improved female villains regained their memories.

He was born with the body of an immortal, and his soul was powerful, making him naturally more perceptive than others.

Perhaps he sensed something...

Lin Feng chuckled. He was quite curious to see what would happen if a traitor from the Linlang Sect and a traitor from the royal family got together.

-------------

As time moved forward, more and more news about Yang Pingsheng emerged.

Most of the stories are about the beautiful scenery of Yunmeng Mountain, the fine wine that Guiguzi kept, and some trivial daily life.

Yang Pingsheng spoke little about the princess, perhaps intentionally concealing something.

His messages are casual and ordinary, just like a simple sharing from an old friend.

Lin Feng mostly just reads, and only occasionally replies when he encounters something that interests him.

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather that he had become busy.

In the past two years, Qin's offensive has become increasingly fierce, and the demands of the Chu royal family have become more and more outrageous. The Linlang Sect is almost out of manpower.

He lost the freedom he wanted and spent all his time with others, going out on missions.

The Linlang Sect set a minimum contribution standard for each month, which made it impossible for Lin Feng to slack off.

So does freedom really exist in this world?

Or is it that so-called freedom is nothing more than this?

-------------

Time pushes all events forward.

The State of Chu was engulfed in war and was in grave danger.

Disciples of the Guigu School emerged from the mountains to support Prince Fusu.

Although the State of Chu had the support of the Jixia Academy, its foundations were rotten, making it difficult to recover.

Many people in the Linlang Sect are already discussing fleeing. Even though the Linlang Sect controls the Gu insect technique, it cannot influence the hearts and minds of its members.

Lin Feng told Yang Pingsheng the news and warned him to be careful.

Soon, he received a message from Yang Pingsheng, the contents of which shocked him.

Yang Pingsheng said that he had decided to completely break away from the Linlang Sect, and that the problem of the Gu worms in his body had been resolved.

The one who helped him was none other than that princess.

They did end up together.

-------------

Just as Lin Feng was wondering whether he should tease the other party about when they would get married, or seriously inquire about their attitude, Yang Pingsheng's new message arrived.

He said he had found the answer.

"I have ideals, and my ideals are placed on her. In this relationship, I will devote myself to her wholeheartedly and live for her from now on."

It's written in a really cheesy way.

"Truly a beautiful and graceful lady, a gentleman's ideal," Lin Feng sighed, shaking his head. But as he continued reading, he saw an answer he hadn't expected.

"I should live my life like this—giving everything for her."

"For my confidant, Ye Buxin."

Chapter 685 The wind carries my name, spreading far and wide.

It's snowing; winter has arrived.

The fluttering snowflakes danced in the air like butterflies before gently falling onto every inch of the mountain forest.

The pine branches were soon covered with a thick layer of snow. The originally green pine needles were wrapped in snow, like blooming cotton. Each pine branch turned into a jade branch and leaves, swaying gently in the breeze and making a rustling sound.

Wen Shihan had previously said that he had made a major discovery at the Jixia Academy, which might take a few days to complete, but unexpectedly, this delay lasted until winter.

Yang Pingsheng sat on a rock, looking into the distance.

In the distance, the trees in the mountains are draped in a pure white cloak, their varying heights creating a vast white sea of ​​trees. The tall trees, capped with white snow, reach straight into the sky, while the low shrubs resemble round and adorable snow buns.

The boy breathed out cold air as he ran through the snow, seemingly trying to use his spiritual energy to ward off the cold.

Yang Pingsheng glanced at it and then looked away, carefully sensing the true traces of the Great Dao.

The Great Dao True Mark placed on Wen Shihan's side has not been used; the other party is still active and has not been attacked or had their personal freedom restricted.

She probably had something else on her mind, which is why she was delayed.

But Yang Pingsheng could hardly imagine what could have caused Wen Shihan to be delayed for so long.

As he was thinking, he suddenly sensed movement from the true traces of the main road that had been laid out around him.

Qi Feng appeared beside him at just the right moment: "Someone's coming."

He stood up and looked at the path leading there.

Amidst the pure white snow, someone staggered up the path.

It looks like a child.

He was panting, taking one step at a time as if he had used up all his strength, and then collapsed into the snow with a thud.

The little boy, who was learning to use spiritual energy to ward off the cold, was startled and looked at Yang Pingsheng: "Sir, that person..."

"Go and see."

-------------

The biggest difference in fate comes from the encounter.

Some say that the madman's birth chart indicates that he will never meet anyone he is destined to meet.

That's why he can never escape his fate.

-------------

Lin Feng remembered.

He didn't always have this name, or even this surname.

The surname Lin originated from the Ji clan of the Zhou royal family. They are members of the royal family of the State of Han and descendants of the royal family of the State of Lin. The famous figure Lin Xiangru came from this clan.

The Lin clan was rooted in the state of Jin. After the division of Jin into three states, its branches scattered among the seven states, but they were still considered nobles. Lin Feng's surname came from this clan.

Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with Lin Feng.

He was bought, and his main duty was to be the shadow of the real Lin Feng.

In other words, a body double.

-------------

Like Yang Pingsheng, he had never seen his parents since birth.

He fell into the hands of slave traders when he was very young. When he grew a little older, he was bought by the Lin family because he looked like the son of the head of the Lin family, and was trained and educated by them.

The shadow must ensure two things: first, loyalty; second, dying for its master in a critical moment. This is a sentence they repeatedly told him when he was in the Lin family.

How one should live is not only Yang Pingsheng's question, but also the question he is pursuing.

The shadows they found weren't just his; there were many others.

Those who train them should not only mold them into the shadow of Prince Lin Feng, but also into the sharpest sword in his hand.

He felt nothing when he killed for the first time.

A white blade goes in, a red blade comes out, and a life ends.

But when the trainers asked him to kill children his own age or even younger, he hesitated.

The little girl was shivering; in the cold wind, her thin clothes barely covered her body.

The knife in his hand was colder than the snow falling from the sky.

"What are you waiting for? Make your move!" the man roared. "Do you remember the principles I taught you? Absolute loyalty!"

"Take action, what are you hesitating for?"

The repeated threats made his pupils constrict.

He suddenly sprang up, but the blade didn't slice across the girl; instead, it sliced ​​across the man's neck.

The man's eyes widened; blood covered the snow, red drowned out white, and all was silent.

Blood dripped from the tip of the knife, and he himself was panting heavily.

Why did he make this choice?

he does not know.

Before I could think about it carefully, my body moved.

Perhaps it's because they dislike following orders, or perhaps it's for some other reason.

In short, that's how he moved.

-------------

He thought he was going to die, but he didn't.

As Qin's ambitions expanded and the war intensified, the Lin family's survival became increasingly precarious.

Apart from the nobles who were most deeply bound to the alliance, the other nobles were all looking for multiple ways out.

Having a double is also a good way out, perhaps because there are too few people who look alike. In any case, he survived.

However, he had to endure the most difficult training and eat the worst food every day, and if he dared to disobey even slightly, he would be beaten and scolded.

They saw his rebellious nature, and everyone wanted to get rid of him.

In the worst case, he was completely disfigured, unable to move his hands and feet, and lay paralyzed in the yard, looking like a dead man.

Nobody paid him any attention.

Those in high positions didn't have it, nor did those who shared his fate. None of them did.
