Chapter 2019 - 2008: The Judgement Angel’s Secret
Early the next morning, after Zhang Xixi woke up, Lin Zifeng had not left. Instead, he sat by the window and accompanied her for an entire night. Throughout the whole night, Lin Zifeng did not sleep, pondering many important matters while keeping Zhang Xixi company.
"Brother Lin, you..."
Seeing Lin Zifeng sitting by the window without sleeping, Zhang Xixi furrowed her delicate brows. Last night, Lin Zifeng neither touched her nor did anything outrageous, which actually made Zhang Xixi feel both touched and a bit disappointed.
She was touched that Lin Zifeng was willing to stay and keep her company, to guard her. The disappointment stemmed from him not doing anything to her—this clearly indicated that perhaps Lin Zifeng’s feelings for her were far less than for Nangong Bing.
"You’re awake." Lin Zifeng smiled and walked over, pouring her a glass of water.
"Brother Lin, did you not sleep last night?" Zhang Xixi slowly climbed out of bed, checking her body briefly and finding no signs that anyone had touched her, meaning Lin Zifeng didn’t lay a hand on her at all last night.
"You drank so much last night; if I didn’t look after you properly, who knows what might have happened." Lin Zifeng chuckled and said, "Alright, take a shower first, then head back on your own. I have some things to attend to outside."
"Alright." Zhang Xixi nodded obediently, looking at Lin Zifeng’s departing back with complex thoughts. She moved her lips slightly but still said nothing...
After leaving the hotel, Lin Zifeng found Zhang Mengjie and the others. Now that the matter of the Holy Hall should be almost done, the news of Supreme Emperor becoming a Saint in recent days seemed to overshadow the news about Nangong Bingmo. Besides some major sects and forces knowing about the Demon event.
Others simply weren’t concerned about the Demon matter. Moreover, among the Taishang Sect and Demon God Sect, aside from them, the others were almost entirely obsolete.
"Did you find any news on Mo Xiangxi?" Walking into the bar formerly opened by Zhang Mengjie, Black Hawk, Bu Chen, Huo Zhengfeng, and Shuobude were all present.
"Found him, but Mo Xiangxi is indeed an Eastern King. Are you planning to assassinate him?" Zhang Mengjie furrowed her brows. With the Holy Hall unstable and Lin Zifeng planning to assassinate a King at this time, it’s somewhat mad.
If it attracts some formidable characters, it would surely be a heavy hit to the Holy Hall.
In fact, everything has its balance. If Lin Zifeng goes too far, attempting to completely eliminate those who offended the Holy Hall at the time, it will surely backfire. You must know, the foundation of the Mortal World is just that much.
If he goes insanely, undoubtedly some hidden masters would jump out, and that would be a loss.
"Without eliminating this person, it’s hard to remove my doubts." Lin Zifeng nodded, ordered a vodka, and drank it all in one go, the fiery liquor burning his stomach, stirring it up.
"In the battle of the Holy Hall, the Qingchi Holy Land, Great Wilderness Holy Land, Jiuxiao Holy Land, and Divine Sky Sect’s Eastern Kings have been eradicated, and several other Eastern Kings have also been assassinated. But don’t forget, if these Eastern Kings aren’t eradicated, they’ll inevitably become nightmares for our Holy Hall." Lin Zifeng said coldly. He understood what he was doing and knew that everything he did was for a certain reason.
"What about the Supreme Emperor?"
"The Supreme Emperor has no issues. Despite his madness, I think the person he’s targeting should only be me, and won’t pose harm to the people of the Holy Hall. It’s impossible for such a character to use regular people to provoke me." Lin Zifeng chuckled lightly.
"Brother Lin, recently there’s a Judgment Angel, wondering if you’ve paid attention to it?" Huo Zhengfeng stepped forward, personally filling Lin Zifeng’s glass, took out a cigarette, and had a puff.
"Oh!? Judgment Angel?" Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, glanced around the bar, and noticed it wasn’t truly operational at the moment, yet the consumption from the brothers of the Holy Hall was sufficient.
The atmosphere and ambiance it once held were gone, making Lin Zifeng quite unaccustomed.
"Indeed, Brother Lin, do you know what are the hottest news recently?" Black Hawk stepped forward to pour himself a drink.
"Which ones?" Lin Zifeng was curious.
"The Supreme Emperor becoming a Saint wiped out the Lin Family; this you are aware. But lately, the Judgment Angel has been causing quite a stir, and this Judgment Angel has also greatly assisted our Holy Hall. Qingchi Holy Land, Great Wilderness Holy Land, and Jiuxiao Holy Land have all been troubled by the Judgment Angel."
"That’s a good thing, another helper grants us more paths. Having such individuals helping me pull hatred allows those opposed to our Holy Hall to have less desire." Lin Zifeng casually drank his wine and rested his cigarette on the counter.
Perhaps only he knew who the Judgment Angel really was.
"Should we investigate the origin of this person?" Black Hawk asked with a cold expression.
He was just that type of person; even though he didn’t know who the Judgment Angel really was, he felt that the Judgment Angel did not belong to a good crowd. Even if the Judgment Angel genuinely intended to help the Holy Hall, in his heart, apart from Lin Zifeng, everyone else was an enemy!
"Silly Yingzi, why do you always want to investigate everything?" Zhang Mengjie swayed her seductive waist, placing a hand on his shoulder, her charming eyes coyly glanced at him. Though Lin Zifeng didn’t reveal the origin of the Judgment Angel, Zhang Mengjie seemed to have understood something.
Having followed Lin Zifeng for so long, she might not be a parasite in his stomach, but she can see through things.
"Uh... Sister Zhang, please don’t tease me." Black Hawk’s fierce black face flushed instantly, completely unable to withstand Zhang Mengjie’s little tease.
Everyone laughed heartily.
Lin Zifeng smiled but didn’t speak. After downing a glass of wine, he waved to leave.
After leaving the bar, Zhang Mengjie followed Lin Zifeng away. During this great calamity, Zhang Mengjie contributed greatly and suffered plenty of fright. In other words, Lin Zifeng couldn’t compensate them for anything but hoped to take them out for meals, or drinks, and chats as a kind of relief.
Time has flown by another week, and the arrangements of the Holy Hall began to slowly recover. Having lost too much during this period. Currently, the strategy of the Holy Hall is simply to stabilize Zhonghai City, while all affairs in Yanjing and Jiangzhou are managed by Hidden Kill, Ming Zhan, and the Shadow Group.
Managed by Phantom, Yu, Mu Yang, and others for Jiangzhou and Yanjing. As for other aspects, the Huayu Group remains as a local force in Zhonghai City, Liu Ruyan’s Beauty Powder operations are quite successful, with Wang Xiaomin’s Divine Needle Sect as backing, everything remains the same.
Having pushed aside all these matters, Lin Zifeng turned into someone seemingly carefree.
