Chapter 918 - 709: Medusa
Behind Lin Feng, Wang Mian’s expression fluctuated, looking as if he wanted to speak but stopped.
In the Divine Martial Continent, in a city surrounded by Abnormal People, to openly hunt down an Extraordinary Powerhouse in broad daylight like this?
And this Extraordinary Powerhouse was still the City Lord of Wuyun City!
Isn’t it necessary to make a plan?
If the encirclement fails, they will face the siege of thousands upon thousands of Alien Powerhouses.
With Lin Feng’s notoriety and the high bounty on him, if exposed, not only this city but neighboring cities, and even much of the Divine Martial Continent’s powerhouses will be drawn in.
This is definitely no joke.
The bounty on Lin Feng may not have such allure, but the hatred attribute he carries certainly does.
Thinking of this, even Wang Mian felt a headache and a slight fear.
Don’t let the White Clothes be resolved without him being dealt with by the Abnormal People first.
"Madman."
Wang Mian cursed silently in his heart.
"Are you sure about doing this?"
As they were about to reach the City Lord’s Mansion, Wang Mian couldn’t help but ask.
He considered himself bold and somewhat arrogant in his conduct, but compared to Lin Feng, he was still quite honest and low-key.
"Do you have another plan?"
Hearing the hesitant inquiry from behind, Lin Feng didn’t turn around but countered with a question.
He wasn’t overly confident or arrogant; he just couldn’t think of a better way.
This mission seemed to have no time limit, but it was indeed very urgent.
If the news of an Extraordinary Abnormal Person being encircled and killed by the Human Race spreads, it will quickly sweep through the Divine Martial Continent. At that time, with a little analysis, the Abnormal People could guess their true purpose.
Afterward, all Alien Powerhouses possessing a ten-star "Key" would be cautiously guarded, or even protected and hidden.
Just having joined the Pure Land and becoming one of the Thirteen Celestial Kings, Lin Feng felt it was necessary to perform brilliantly on his first mission.
At this time, other teams were also taking action, if not already in action. So, there was no extra time for them to make plans or wait for an opportunity.
"Then I’ll listen to you."
Wang Mian indeed had no better plan, so he had no choice but to follow Lin Feng’s arrangements.
Under Lin Feng’s lead, the two quickly arrived outside the City Lord’s Mansion.
As soon as they approached, they were stopped by two armored guards.
"I request to see City Lord Lou Yuan, I have important news to report concerning the Human Race."
Lin Feng had already changed his attire, dressed in a light golden robe, making him appear even more noble with his originally princely appearance.
Wang Mian, standing behind Lin Feng, was dressed similarly, but his ordinary looks made him appear just like a follower.
"City Lord Lou is not someone you can meet just by wanting to."
A middle-aged guard said, his tone harsh.
If the young man in front of him didn’t seem distinguished and hard to provoke, he would have reprimanded him already.
"You lowly thing, just go and report it. Can you afford to delay the City Lord’s major affairs?"
Lin Feng appeared impatient and directly shouted.
This insult made the middle-aged guard’s expression furious, but this arrogant attitude made him wary.
To be so arrogant even when arriving at the City Lord’s Mansion, one is either a fool or has something to rely on.
In the Divine Martial Continent, might makes right, and the hierarchy is very strict.
Without knowing the other party’s identity, the guard could only endure it, not daring to act.
Normally, the more arrogant the person in front of him is, the more likely they have important information.
Having been a guard for years, he had never seen anyone dare to fool around with Lord Lou Yuan.
"Wait here."
Finally, leaving only one sentence, the guard went to report inside the mansion.
After about ten minutes, he reappeared.
"Follow me."
The guard said.
Lin Feng chuckled softly, his laughter dripping with sarcasm, which made the guard both angry and even more apprehensive.
The City Lord’s Mansion was quite luxurious, although to Lin Feng, the architectural style seemed somewhat incongruous.
Along the way, they occasionally saw human-shaped stone sculptures, both old and young, mostly male, lifelike, with even the hairs vividly detailed.
After walking for a while, bypassing a gently flowing garden, they arrived at a study filled with many books.
Their target, an elderly man wearing a yellow robe, with graying hair, a slim build, and slightly cold eyes, was also watching them.
Upon seeing the elder, the guard bowed and then turned to leave.
"Do you have something to report to me?"
Lou Yuan asked, his eyes scanning Lin Feng and Wang Mian.
They seemed unremarkable, but for some reason, they gave him a strange feeling.
"Is it because they seem too calm?"
He wondered to himself.
"Lord Lou Yuan, it’s information regarding Lin Feng."
Lin Feng stepped forward and spoke.
"Lin Feng?"
Lou Yuan set down the book he was holding, looking visibly surprised.
That name, even he knew, resounded like thunder in his ears.
He’d heard that Lin Feng had joined the Pure Land and become one of the Thirteen Celestial Kings.
Given his potential, he would inevitably become a threat to the Divine Martial Continent in the future.
"What information?"
Lou Yuan asked, with some interest.
Behind Lin Feng, Wang Mian slightly lowered his head, hiding his somewhat speechless expression.
Are you really playing such a high-stakes game?
"Lin Feng has already entered Wuyun City, preparing to assassinate City Lord Lou Yuan."
As Lin Feng spoke, he moved closer.
Lou Yuan’s pupils suddenly contracted, his eyes filled with doubt and shock. At this moment, he seemed to have realized something, just about to react, the air suddenly turned moist, and a pervasive drizzle appeared out of nowhere.
