Super Soldier in Campus

Su Zi knew Lin Feng was trying to comfort her. She shook her head resolutely and said, "Lin Feng, stop hiding it from me... Something so big happened, you can’t hide it!"

For a moment, Lin Feng was taken aback and didn’t quite understand what Su Zi was talking about. He widened his eyes and asked in return, "What happened?"

Ning Aoxue couldn’t hold back any longer and spoke up, "Lin Feng, the Longfeng Martial Hall was smashed up. Su Zi and I went to see the site; it’s practically reduced to ruins. Are you still trying to hide the reason for your injuries?"

Lin Feng’s expression paused slightly as he gave a bitter smile to Ning Aoxue and helplessly asked, "Since you both went to the site, what more do you need to ask?"

Ning Aoxue’s expression slightly froze; after glancing at Su Zi, she softly said, "We want to know who you’ve offended!"

Su Zi nodded fervently like a pecking chick.

Lin Feng glanced at Xue Qingyi, who helplessly shrugged at him, clearly indicating he had no solution for Su Zi and Ning Aoxue.

"Enough, you two little girls. Even if you knew, it wouldn’t help; it would only invite trouble!" Lin Feng didn’t plan to tell Ning Aoxue and Su Zi about Kongshan Temple. In fact, if it were possible, he even wanted to suppress the news, forbidding anyone from Longfeng Martial Hall from spreading the word about the matter with Ming Yue Taoist. But in modern society, too many things can spread through the internet. When Ming Yue Taoist entered the Longfeng Martial Hall, there were not only employees but also many guests present. Lin Feng knew controlling it was futile, so he gave up!

"Lin Feng..." Su Zi was still determined to ask further.

But Lin Feng stopped her with one sentence, "You two stop bothering me. I still need to rest and recuperate..."

Su Zi and Ning Aoxue were stunned, then exchanged a glance. They were quite reluctant but also afraid of disturbing Lin Feng’s rest. After sulking for a few seconds, they obediently left.

As for why Lin Feng kept Xue Qingyi, both girls knew Xue Qingyi was somewhat of a medical expert, so despite feeling jealous, they endured without overthinking what might happen between Lin Feng and Xue Qingyi in the room.

...

Of course, with Xue Qingyi’s current condition, even if Lin Feng wished for something to happen, it was not appropriate!

"That sword is poisoned! That’s why your wounds aren’t healing!" After Xue Qingyi closed the door, she furrowed her brow slightly and said to Lin Feng, "But when I had Xiang Wang analyze the poison on the sword, there was no sign of added toxins... We can only observe your condition for now!"

Xue Qingyi looked at Lin Feng nervously, afraid he might suddenly collapse... After all, heroes collapsing from poison are commonplace in historical stories!

Seeing Xue Qingyi’s concern, Lin Feng gave a bitter smile and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t have major issues... If there’s no toxin found on the weapon, it’s likely the weapon itself is the problem! Once I have the chance to study that weapon, we’ll figure it out..."

"That’s all we can do!" Xue Qingyi nodded. She had carefully examined the slender sword and found nothing amiss, so it seemed Lin Feng would need to handle it himself.

Due to his injuries, Lin Feng didn’t do much. After waking up, he had a hearty meal and returned to the room, enduring the pain.

Regarding the wounds on his body that wouldn’t heal, Lin Feng wasn’t careless but carefully examined them. Once he confirmed there were no other signs of poisoning, he relaxed, resisted looking at the wounds, and quietly awaited their recovery.

After just waking up, Lin Feng didn’t feel sleepy; he directly sat cross-legged on the bed, quietly thinking about various matters.

"If other cultivators from Kongshan Temple learn Ming Yue Taoist has been killed, they definitely won’t let it slide easily..." Lin Feng’s brow furrowed in concern, "Who’ll come, and with what level of skill? Someone beyond Innate? Inner Strength Level Six? What would that mean? Do I have the ability to escape from such masters?"

These thoughts swirled in his mind, leaving Lin Feng feeling somewhat heavy-hearted.

Then, Lin Feng picked up two dragon and phoenix jade pendants from his bed and examined them carefully... Suddenly, Lin Feng noticed that both pendants emitted an emanating aura, two mist-like airs approached his hands simultaneously, and Lin Feng felt a wave of coolness penetrate his hands along with the mist!

Lin Feng then discovered, to his surprise, the wounds on his body slowly began to freeze... really freeze, with white crystals forming right at the skin’s surface of the wounds!

Stunned for a few seconds, Lin Feng realized, "So the sword wound was harboring sword energy all along. No wonder my wounds couldn’t heal; these strange Inner Strength energies kept enlarging the wounds?! And the phoenix jade’s aura can freeze them. My wounds can be healed!"

Immediately after, Lin Feng noticed the frozen crystals rapidly transformed into blood-red mist, which gradually dispersed from his hands and was absorbed by the dragon-shaped jade stone...

With the phoenix jade stone freezing and the dragon-shaped jade stone absorbing, this simple yet time-consuming process allowed Lin Feng’s wounds to finally return to normal and slowly heal.

"So, using the dragon and phoenix jade together has such a great healing effect; no wonder that Taoist wanted to snatch them from me..." Lin Feng thought wryly, "Meaning, if other cultivators learn I possess such powerful dragon and phoenix jade stones, they’ll come to take them from me too? Is this the ’crime of holding an object of value’?"

Suddenly, Lin Feng felt a deep sense of crisis. In an instant, he thought... I must advance to Innate!

Only by advancing to Innate can one have the capability of self-preservation! Lin Feng felt an unprecedented sense of urgency.

But how could he advance, reach that legendary threshold? Lin Feng didn’t know... He rummaged through all the secret scripts, medicines, and tools he possessed at that moment, placing them on the bedside table, examining them one by one: medical needle kit, Poison Sting Dagger, Yin Yang Life Changing Needle, Mystery Deduction Technique, Five Elements Escape Technique, Innate Qi Returning Finger, dragon and phoenix jade pendants, and a dull gray wooden box...

Lin Feng’s gaze quickly rested on the last wooden box with an odd expression.

"I remember this wooden box was given to me by that little girl named Lu Lu when I bought the Returning Finger secret script in the Imperial City... At the time, I only remembered there was a pill inside, but I didn’t know its purpose, so I’ve kept it until now!" Lin Feng recalled while picking up the wooden box and muttering as he opened it.

It was a pill the size of a dragon’s eye, sealed in a wax pill. Lin Feng tried to open the wax pill and saw a small brown pill, instantly filling the entire room with a rich, fragrant aroma...
