Super Soldier in Campus

"Who’s speaking?" Ye Lin was startled when she heard a sudden male voice in the forest. Nervously, she asked a question, raising her gun and trying to pinpoint the source of the voice, aiming in the direction of the speaker, but she couldn’t figure out where the sound was coming from!

Lin Feng quickly stopped Ye Lin’s movement and said in a deep voice, "Don’t act recklessly... the opponent is very skilled!"

Although Lin Feng hadn’t reached the Innate level, he was an experienced practitioner of Innate Cultivation Techniques. Just by listening to the mysterious male voice that seemed to come from various directions, he knew this person was not ordinary! The person speaking was at least an Innate cultivator, and possibly the legendary cultivator!

From the voice’s message, Lin Feng caught a key term, "Kongshan Temple," and realized that it referred to the large house in the valley. Could it be a Taoist temple?!

Thinking of this, Lin Feng became curious: What was this Kongshan Temple’s origin? Why did it appear in such a remote wilderness, and why had he never heard of a Taoist temple in this area?!

"Hmm, the young man knows the rules well enough, but unfortunately, the young girl is very impolite and needs a small punishment!"

Lin Feng heard the male voice in the darkness suddenly speak coldly, and then the next second, he heard a strange whooshing sound coming from far to near. Suddenly, the treetops in front of him were cut off, and Lin Feng saw a silver flash rapidly approaching, aiming at Ye Lin’s arm!

Ye Lin’s expression was a bit dazed. Although she found the whooshing sound strange, she had no idea what was happening.

"Be careful!" Lin Feng instinctively shouted, pulling Ye Lin’s arm to the side. He pulled her half a meter away just in time, and the silver flash nearly grazed Ye Lin’s shoulder before disappearing into the dense forest...

"Are you okay?" Lin Feng was both shocked and furious. He glanced at Ye Lin’s arm and found that although her arm was unharmed, her clothing there had been cut open by the silver flash. If he hadn’t pulled her aside just now, Ye Lin might have been injured!

"Just now... what was that?" Ye Lin, seeing the silver flash pass by, finally came to her senses and asked with some lingering fear.

"Hmph! Your reaction is quick, young man. Very well, since you managed to avoid my sword, I’ll let the young lady off this time! Remember to be careful with your words in the future to avoid trouble from speaking out of turn!" The male voice in the dense forest said in a muffled tone.

Lin Feng was filled with anger and was about to speak when he suddenly heard more whooshing sounds behind him. Instinctively, he turned his head to see the silver flash flying back again, but much slower this time. Lin Feng could even make out that it was a hiltless short sword less than forty centimeters long...

At this point, Lin Feng finally realized what the silver flash was...

"It’s actually a Flying Sword?!" Lin Feng muttered to himself with a strange expression.

Ye Lin, too, was shocked as she watched the small sword quickly fly back to the large house, her expression becoming extremely peculiar. How did that small sword fly out, and why was it so fast? And why could it fly back, what was going on?

Lin Feng now confirmed that the person living in that large house, or rather Kongshan Temple, was definitely not an ordinary person. The one who had just targeted Ye Lin was likely a cultivator with astonishing cultivation!

"Let’s go!" Lin Feng immediately made a decision, grabbing Ye Lin’s hand and preparing to return the way they came. Based on their recent encounter, Lin Feng was certain that person was very troublesome. Even he couldn’t be sure he’d be able to handle the situation on his own, let alone with Ye Lin, who could hold him back. The best strategy now was to retreat!

"Go, where?" Ye Lin asked Lin Feng instinctively, not having fully grasped the situation.

"Back!" Lin Feng gritted his teeth and told Ye Lin, "Let’s leave quickly, or it’ll be too late!"

"But, those armed drug traffickers?" Ye Lin finally understood Lin Feng’s intention, but she was reluctant to leave immediately because those eight dangerous drug traffickers had yet to be captured!

"Don’t worry about it... not one of them will survive..." Lin Feng said. By now, he understood that with the presence of someone capable of using a Flying Sword, Kongshan Temple was likely in no danger. The gunshots and screams they had just heard were likely the drug traffickers getting caught in an ambush, followed by their futile struggles, producing those sounds...

Unwillingly, Ye Lin turned back for one last look, and suddenly she saw a figure covered in blood burst out from the shadows behind a wall of Kongshan Temple, letting out a desperate cry for help...

"Help... me..."

Ye Lin recognized the man calling for help as one of the drug traffickers, but what terrified her was that the man now had his left hand and arm completely gone, blood gushing from his shoulder wound, soaking his entire body instantly...

"Lin Feng..." Ye Lin pulled on Lin Feng’s shoulder, signaling him to turn around.

Lin Feng turned to see a bizarre shadow, the size of a person, suddenly leap out from the shadows of Kongshan Temple, swiftly passing the fleeing drug trafficker, after which the latter’s cries halted... abruptly.

The next second, Lin Feng and Ye Lin were horrified to see the fleeing drug trafficker’s upper body collapse to the ground with a thud, leaving his legs standing in place for half a second before the lower body also fell...

"What... what was that shadow?!" Ye Lin felt her voice trembling, fearing to speak loudly, she whispered to Lin Feng.

"Let’s go!" Lin Feng did not guess at the answer, choosing instead to pull Ye Lin away directly!

...

Lin Feng wasn’t aware that in a loft of Kongshan Temple, which he couldn’t see, two men dressed in Taoist robes, one old and one young, were quietly discussing something.

"Martial Uncle, why did we let that man and woman leave? They will expose the location of our sect!" the young Taoist asked, somewhat puzzled, looking at the old Taoist and speaking in a deep voice, "Since they’re just ordinary people, not very strong either, wouldn’t killing them be the end of it? They haven’t gone far yet, if you give the command, I can have the Shadow Puppet catch up to them!"

"Ming Yue, you don’t understand!" the old Taoist shook his head, speaking in a grave tone, "Of the two people just now, the woman is ordinary, but the man, his strength is already close to Innate, close to the threshold of cultivation. Also, I sensed two very unsettling auras emanating from him. Those presences are so powerful that I dare not act rashly! I’m afraid that man is also a disciple of other Hidden World Sects, and I dare not act as an assassin! Moreover, that sword just tested him, and indeed, his skills are quite extraordinary!"
