Chapter 2292 - 2291: Auction House
Just at this moment, Madam Lin came over with tea.
She put down the tea, poured a cup for both Su Han and Lin Fengjie, and then left with a smile.
Su Han withdrew his gaze, fixed his eyes on Lin Fengjie, and said calmly, "Why did you say sorry?"
"You know why."
Lin Fengjie picked up the teacup, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn’t drink it.
He raised his eyes and met Su Han’s gaze, no longer avoiding it.
"But I am definitely not a traitor, nor have I secretly sabotaged the Phoenix Sect!"
As he spoke, Lin Fengjie’s hand that held the teacup couldn’t help but tremble.
A flush of red appeared on his fingertips, and with too much force, the teacup shattered with a bang.
Su Han glanced at the broken teacup, pursed his lips, and said, "The method for creating the safe zone has been leaked, causing the Phoenix Sect now to become the target of everyone. Countless forces have genuine intentions to annihilate the Phoenix Sect, and if any Phoenix Sect disciples show up at this moment, they would absolutely make a move without hesitation."
"If the Extraterritorial Demons were still raging at this moment, the Phoenix Sect’s situation could be better."
"But now, the entire land has completely calmed down. For them, there’s only one enemy now, and that’s the Phoenix Sect."
"In this vast world, there’s no place for the Phoenix Sect to take shelter. Such sadness can’t be resolved with a simple ’sorry’."
Lin Fengjie’s body trembled, his chest heaved.
"Brother Su!"
"When I, Fengjie, was at my wit’s end, it was Brother Su who took me in. Such immense kindness, I, Fengjie, have never forgotten!"
"And now, the Phoenix Sect is placed in such a situation, which I, Fengjie, cannot redeem. I can only... atone with death!"
As the words fell, Lin Fengjie’s body suddenly began to swell.
"Enough!"
Su Han snorted coldly, immediately spreading his Power of Cultivation, forcefully suppressing Lin Fengjie’s attempt at self-destruction.
"Do you think by doing this, it solves anything? You die, and they won’t hate our Phoenix Sect anymore?"
"But I truly have no way out!!!"
Lin Fengjie suddenly roared, his eyes bloodshot, his hair disheveled, as if he was about to go mad.
"That is my father, my biological father!!!"
"He has two sons, maybe he doesn’t care about me, but I have only this one father, how could I not think of this familial bond!"
"I thought, he truly missed me, truly wanted to reunite and reconcile with me..."
"Who would have thought, this was all his conspiracy, a conspiracy to obtain that method for creating the safe zone!!!"
"Hahahaha, hahahaha..."
"What did I, Lin Fengjie, do in my past life to be born into such a family!"
"Living like this, it’s truly better to die!!!"
Listening to his roars, Madam Lin appeared, not far off, tears in her eyes, sobbing softly.
In fact, the method for creating the safe zone wasn’t truly leaked by Lin Fengjie.
It was just that the Illusion Clear Ancestor Emperor used a grand means to steal a segment of Lin Fengjie’s memory.
And Lin Fengjie, was not a fool.
From the day the Qing Emperor Sect created the safe zone, he knew that this was all leaked by him!
Even when he returned, the Illusion Clear Ancestor Emperor left a mark on him, wanting to use Lin Fengjie to see where the people of the Phoenix Sect were hiding.
It was only that the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son was too powerful, and when Lin Fengjie came in, it wiped away that mark by itself.
Whether Lin Fengjie did it intentionally or unintentionally, ultimately, the matter had already happened, and the Phoenix Sect had become like a rat on the street!
He himself, could not escape blame!
Countless times, Lin Fengjie went alone to the valley where Su Han was, but every time he saw Su Han was in seclusion, Lin Fengjie did not disturb him.
And now, what was meant to come, has come...
Lin Fengjie could think of no other way than death to make amends.
Thinking of the long night talks with the Illusion Clear Ancestor Emperor, thinking of that kind and gentle expression on his face, thinking of those words he said...
Lin Fengjie suddenly felt a wave of nausea.
The feeling of vomiting rose from his heart and could not be suppressed.
"Ah!"
A large amount of blood spurted from Lin Fengjie’s mouth, splattering on the ground.
"Fengjie!"
Seeing this scene, Madam Lin was startled, rushing over.
"I, Lin Fengjie, have no father for the rest of my life..."
Lin Fengjie’s face was pale, he wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth, but his murmured words were filled with finality and decisiveness.
"This mask, return it to you."
Su Han took out a mask and handed it to Lin Fengjie.
Then said to Madam Lin, "Auntie, take good care of him."
After Su Han finished speaking, he got up and left.
He didn’t know how to face Lin Fengjie.
Forgive?
Such a grave sin, how could it be easily forgiven?
Although it was not Lin Fengjie’s intent, Su Han felt that Lin Fengjie should have foreseen this outcome long ago!
If he had thought a bit for the Phoenix Sect, for Su Han, how could things have ended up like this?
As for punishment...
How should he be punished!
He is Su Han’s friend, and because of this mask, he saved Su Han several times, otherwise, Su Han’s identity would have been exposed long ago, and the Phoenix Sect would have already been destroyed!
Su Han didn’t know how to deal with him, so... he could only leave.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."
"Su Han, I, Lin Fengjie, am sorry to you!!!"
And after Su Han left, Lin Fengjie roared again, more blood continuously spouting out.
...
Jade Void City.
This is one of the cities under the Sect of the Heavenly Sea, one of the Seventy-Two Sects.
Today, a large auction was held here, attracting many people to participate.
The Three Teachings, Nine Factions, and Seventy-Two Sects all had cultivators coming, crowding the auction place until it was impervious.
However, a few years ago, after the billion lands calmed down, most of the powerful figures from each sect went into hiding.
Sub-Immortal Level cultivators have all disappeared.
Even at the Heavenly Emperor Realm, only figures like Sect Masters still exist, seemingly everyone else has started their seclusion.
Therefore, the cultivators who came here, although their status is high, in terms of cultivation base, at most, they only reached the Dao Sovereign Realm.
Among them is Xiao Hailong, the son of the Deputy Sect Master of the Immortal Sword Sect.
As well as the genius of the Sect of the Supreme Void, Han Junjie, and others are also here.
Figures like the Top Ten Young Masters, Top Ten Fairies, Top Ten Divine Sons, since coming to the billion lands, are no longer so mysterious.
Today alone, there were no fewer than twenty Young Masters and Fairies appearing in Jade Void City.
After all, they’ve been suppressed for too long.
This is the first place to hold an auction after the calm.
Such a lively scene, how could they not join in the fun?
