Chapter 2552 - 2551: It’s Up to You
The person trying to escape was still mid-air when the micro missile launched from the spaceship directly hit him!
The missile’s speed was extremely fast, and the person couldn’t even react to dodge.
As a result, with a loud bang, his body was blasted into pieces mid-air, leaving not even bones behind.
After this loud explosion, everyone present went weak in the knees, almost sitting on the ground.
"Should these remaining few be put to death?" Ling Feng asked in a deep voice.
Everyone looked at each other, intimidated by Ling Feng’s tactics, and for a moment, no one spoke.
Seeing this, Ling Feng said, "If you think they shouldn’t die, then so be it."
"No, they should die. These people followed the one just now, doing all kinds of evil, destroying countless families!" someone shouted.
Once one person shouted, others followed, and the courtyard was suddenly a cacophony of voices, the sound echoing far in the night.
Looking at those shivering guys, Ling Feng sneered, "Since that’s the case, we must comply with the public’s will!"
Without needing to lift a hand, the Blade of the Apocalypse flashed with cold light, swiftly ending those people’s lives!
Seeing those people collapse, the scene became quiet in an instant.
The Onmyoji had been immobilized, but his mind was still intact. Watching his subordinates get killed before his eyes, his feelings were expressed only through his gaze, which showed his mixed emotions of anger and fear.
After dealing with his subordinates, Ling Feng turned to look at this person and then towards the other men and women: "Can any of you tell me why this person occupied this place?"
"I know!"
The woman from before raised her hand again.
Ling Feng looked at her, "Good!"
Then he said to the others, "This Onmyoji can’t move now; if any of you want revenge, now’s the time to do it!"
With that, he left the courtyard with that woman, heading outside.
Initially, there wasn’t much movement in the courtyard, but within a few minutes, there were sounds of clanging and banging from inside.
And by that time, the woman had already led Ling Feng to the backyard.
This was an enclosed courtyard, surrounded by high walls, completely obscured from the outside view.
Now Ling Feng saw a well in the middle of the yard, with the wellhead about a meter above the ground, built with whole blue stones.
"Sir, this is the Onmyoji’s purpose for being here!" the woman said.
Ling Feng paused for a moment, then quickly asked, "What’s it for?"
"I heard him mention it before, called a Soul-Suppressing Well, supposedly used to suppress wandering souls!" the woman said.
"Oh?"
Ling Feng was startled, then bent down to carefully examine the few blue stones and soon noticed they were etched with patterns!
Looking a few more times, according to the Compendium of Array Formations, he saw the clues!
These patterns were part of a formation.
This meant that the woman was right, the well was imbued with formations for a definite purpose.
After pondering for a moment, Ling Feng gradually devised a plan in his mind. If he guessed correctly, these five Onmyoji were each controlling one well, using some sinister method to lock down the Peninsula’s land.
Although the exact consequences were unclear, he could guess they were definitely to consolidate their rule over this Peninsula.
Thinking of this, Ling Feng drew his saber, using the God Slayer Saber to destroy the wellhead.
No unusual incident occurred, the blue stones scattered, exposing the dark well opening.
Ling Feng swept his Divine Sense over it, discovering the well’s walls were very smooth, at least a hundred meters deep, with water at the bottom, but he couldn’t tell if it was groundwater or something else.
There were no patterns on the well walls, suggesting there was no longer a formation.
Ling Feng wasn’t sure if what he did counted as destroying the Soul-Suppressing Well. Hesitant, he thought he’d deal with it later, leaving it as it was for now!
Then he turned to the woman, saying to her, "Alright, this is as far as it goes. Later on, divide the Onmyoji’s belongings among yourselves and hurry home!"
"Sir, where are you going?" the woman asked.
"I still need to find the other people. On your Peninsula, there are five Onmyoji in total. I need to eliminate them all!" Ling Feng said.
"Can I follow you?" the woman asked.
Ling Feng was taken aback, then shook his head, "No, I’m not from your place. Once everything’s sorted out, your country will be restored. At that time, live your own lives!"
After saying this, his Divine Sense swept over to see that the Onmyoji had been beaten beyond recognition by the furious crowd, already without breath, so he didn’t return to the courtyard, directly soaring into the sky and returning to the spaceship.
After sitting down, Li Chunxi asked, "That girl wanted to go with you, why didn’t you bring her along?"
Ling Feng felt a bit speechless, glancing at her, "Why should I bring her?"
"No reason, just thought that if she were a pretty girl, you’d accept her!" Li Chunxi said.
"..."
Ling Feng shook his head helplessly, "You think too much!"
After speaking, he commanded the spaceship to start and leave the mountain.
At this time, the night was deep, and it would be four or five hours until dawn. Ling Feng didn’t plan on wasting too much time, so he directly instructed the spaceship to head to the second location.
This time, the position was not easy to find, and only when the horizon began to brighten, with the earth gradually returning to light, did Ling Feng’s Divine Sense lock onto an estate on the plains.
The location was on the outskirts of a town, about three or four kilometers from the urban area. The estate was built at the foot of a mountain, with a large river flowing in front, occupying quite a favorable position.
The spaceship went directly over the estate, and some people here had already started working. Seeing something floating in the sky, they were somewhat frightened.
Ling Feng didn’t put on any airs, directly descending from mid-air to the open space in the estate, then said in a deep voice, "Owner of this place, come out!"
There were many people in this estate, over a hundred, with most being Goryeo people and only about twenty being Dongying people.
He had already locked onto a guy with a small mustache, seemingly in his seventies, with a lean face and eyes as sharp as electricity.
With that shout, everyone in the estate could hear it, and the old man immediately sat up from the bed.
Of course, this guy certainly wasn’t about to show himself immediately; he quickly arranged for estate guards to see what kind of person had come.
Ling Feng wasn’t polite either, seeing those men carrying weapons, he immediately dashed over, in three or two moves, put them all down.
