Chapter 1389 - 1392: Zhou Yang and Xiang Wang

Master Ci Yun glanced at Tang Rou, thinking to herself that since the sutras had been fully instilled into Tang Rou’s mind, she only needed to slowly comprehend the twenty-eight Chapters of the Lotus Sutra, and she would naturally become a member of the Buddhist sect. There’s no need to rush; it’s fine to let them take Tang Rou back for now!

Of course, Master Ci Yun was reluctant to admit one thing: she was actually a bit apprehensive of Lin Feng and Lu Lu. In a one-on-one fight, Master Ci Yun was confident of a sure victory against either Lin Feng or Lu Lu. After all, she was already at the pinnacle of the mid-Innate stage, a peerless expert, facing two inexperienced juniors wouldn’t put much psychological pressure on her. However, if she had to face both simultaneously, Master Ci Yun wasn’t as confident, given that Lin Feng and Lu Lu were Innate experts too, and young and vigorous at that. Not to mention, it’s unknown how many advanced Tianji Sect talismans Lin Feng and Lu Lu carried; she was even less certain of winning decisively!

Moreover, the most crucial point was that Master Ci Yun was very apprehensive of Lu Lu’s grandfather, the Sect Leader of Tianji Sect, Lu Yuming... he was the true formidable enemy!

Considering multiple aspects, Master Ci Yun decided to let go today, planning to bring her sect’s experts to Jiangzhou later for a proper reckoning with Lin Feng!

"To think that the latest Dispute over Blessed Lands in the cultivation world has yet to commence, and the Tianji Sect already started meddling in our Buddhist matters!" Master Ci Yun looked coldly at Lu Lu and said indignantly, "Little girl, pass a message to your unkillable grandfather, today’s incident will certainly be accounted for by him. When the Dispute over Blessed Lands begins, don’t blame me if Wunian Nunnery repays today’s favor!"

"What is the Dispute over Blessed Lands?" Lin Feng didn’t quite understand Master Ci Yun’s threatening words, and glanced at Lu Lu.

Lu Lu’s expression changed slightly. Clearly, she understood the meaning of the Dispute over Blessed Lands and was fairly concerned about Master Ci Yun’s threat!

But seeing Tang Rou being rendered spiritually confused by Master Ci Yun enraged Lu Lu, prompting her to speak with no courtesy left for Master Ci Yun.

"Stop frightening people here! If you have the guts, say that to my grandfather! What are you pretending for in front of me?!" Lu Lu glared at Master Ci Yun and continued, "If you’re unconvinced, go ahead and make a move! Although we’re only two people, the sum of our ages isn’t even yours, so it wouldn’t count as bullying you!"

The more Master Ci Yun heard Lu Lu say this, the more she was convinced Lu Lu had a scheme. After a complex expression flashed across her face, Master Ci Yun ultimately sighed, gazing deeply at Tang Rou, and said indifferently, "To be honest, Tang Rou is destined to be one of our Buddhist sect. Even if you take her back today, it won’t change this fact. To completely shatter your hopes, I’ll let Tang Rou go with you today! When she comprehends the twenty-eight Chapters of the Lotus Sutra and desires to join our Buddhist sect, I will personally bring my sect to Jiangzhou to fetch her!"

"Hmph! If that day truly comes, I’ll flatten Wunian Nunnery’s mountain gate and kill all you pretentious fake nuns!" Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Master Ci Yun, and spoke in a calm tone.

Lin Feng’s attitude bore no threats; it was as if stating a common fact... However, the content of this fact made Master Ci Yun feel waves of terror...

Yet, Master Ci Yun said nothing. She just coldly glanced at Lin Feng before walking away.

Watching Master Ci Yun’s seemingly unguarded figure, a hint of motivation flickered across Lin Feng’s face. However, after glancing at Tang Rou beside him, he ultimately restrained his impulse and did not act.

At this moment, Master Ci Yun suddenly turned back, giving Lin Feng a meaningful smile, which looked harmless but made Lin Feng feel a sudden chill internally.

"That stubborn Demon Nun! Acting all high and mighty!" Lu Lu cursed discontentedly.

"Forget it! At least we’ve rescued Tang Rou, we’ll settle accounts with her later!" Lin Feng said heavily.

"Lin Feng... now that Tang Rou’s like this, do you have a way to restore her consciousness?" Lu Lu looked at Tang Rou, who remained absorbed in chanting, and asked with a worried expression.

"I... don’t know yet!" Lin Feng was speechless. Although the Supreme Medicinal Manual recorded many medical techniques, he was unsure how to handle Tang Rou’s current state effectively. Despite having various treatment methods, Lin Feng was unwilling to use Tang Rou as a test subject.

"What should we do then?" Lu Lu frowned. "Why don’t we return to Jiangzhou first and talk about it later? I’ll contact my grandfather to see if he can help!"

"It’s the only option!" Lin Feng nodded.

Thus, Lin Feng’s party in Harbor City didn’t even leave the airport before purchasing tickets for the early morning flight back to Jiangzhou the next day. To avoid further complications, Lin Feng and Lu Lu decided to wait with Tang Rou in the airport’s resting area until they boarded the early flight back.

Just as Lin Feng thought nothing would happen tonight, he suddenly received a call from Xiang Wang.

"Boss, where are you now? My Brother Zhou and I just landed at Harbor City airport..."

Zhou Yang and Xiang Wang came to Harbor City too? Lin Feng was taken aback, thinking internally; wasn’t Zhou Yang injured?

Before Lin Feng could ask, Xiang Wang explained for Zhou Yang, "Boss, I intended to let Brother Zhou recuperate in New York before returning, but he felt guilty towards you and insisted on hurrying back. I managed to catch the latest connecting flight, that’s why we’re now in Harbor City. Where are you? We’ll come find you!"

"I’m still at Harbor City airport!" Lin Feng sighed, feeling touched yet helpless; Zhou Yang and Xiang Wang, those two fools.

Then, Lin Feng heard Zhou Yang’s weak voice coming through Xiang Wang’s phone, "Boss, about Tang Rou...?"

Lin Feng glanced at Tang Rou beside him, spoke softly to Zhou Yang, "Don’t worry, we’ve found her. You come find us!"

A relieved long sigh was heard from Zhou Yang over the phone...

Ten minutes later, Xiang Wang and Zhou Yang, full of remorse, found Lin Feng and the others. Seeing Tang Rou maintaining her silent, sleepless state, and remaining in a prayer demeanor, a hint of panic and guilt flashed across their faces...

"Boss, what’s going on with Sister-in-law Tang Rou..." Xiang Wang widened his eyes in surprise, looking at Tang Rou, asking subconsciously.

Bang! After a moment of silence, Zhou Yang raised his left hand and punched himself hard in the face.

"Zhou Yang, are you crazy!" Lin Feng leapt up in surprise, grabbed Zhou Yang, and said sternly, "You’ve done your best to help Tang Rou, I know, it’s not your fault!"
