Chapter 2140 - 2129: Beiyao Ancient Clan Matriarch

After the man in black resolved to kill Lin Zifeng, he advanced to attack.

Yet, just as the man in black approached, suddenly the air seemed to fill with a force.

When the man in black turned his head to look, he was shocked to discover a gigantic hand crashing down, enveloping him completely!

Faced with this, the man in black turned pale with fright, his expression changing, realizing he was caught in a trap. He tried to retreat once more to create distance and escape.

Lin Zifeng chuckled, swiftly closing in. The Primordial Battle Banner unfurled and hovered above his head. Accompanied by a long howl, the banner soared high into the sky, stopping the man in black from retreating.

Next, the Gray Dragon Hand swept out, grabbing the man and pulling him back.

The Heavenly Hand struck fiercely, hitting the man in black heavily in the abdomen.

"Argh!"

The man in black took the hit to his abdomen, immediately spitting blood. He retaliated with a wave, but Lin Zifeng’s speed was faster, holding his arm and snapping it forcefully, producing a crunching sound!

The man in black howled in pain towards the sky.

"Bang!"

A ferocious fist landed heavily on his face, nearly knocking the teeth from the mouth of the man in black.

After a miserable cry, the man in black fell heavily to the ground, limbs weak, as if all strength had been drained, completely unable to rise again.

Lin Zifeng approached him with a smile, saying, "If you answer my questions honestly, I’ll ensure you don’t die. But if you insist on being a tough guy, I can make you one, although you’ll regretfully die in pain."

With those words, Lin Zifeng was not joking. If he didn’t get what he wanted, the man in black would have to die.

"Speak! What do you want to know?" the man in black growled, staring angrily at Lin Zifeng.

"Good, I prefer you cooperative." Lin Zifeng nodded satisfactorily, smiling, "Tell me, who are you?"

"You..."

"You may fabricate lies, but if false, I won’t mind breaking all your limbs and cutting you into a human stick." Lin Zifeng smiled wickedly, his cold face filled with a charmingly evil grin.

With no choice, the man in black had to confess everything.

It turns out this man in black was from an ancient clan of millennia. Furthermore, the beautiful woman he found tonight was also of an ancient clan, and she was the eldest daughter of the National Guardian Martial God, Dongfang Ziyue, a clan woman of the Beiyao Ancient Clan!

Lin Zifeng naturally asked why Dongfang Ziyue looked unwell tonight. It turns out, the ancestor of this Beiyao Ancient Clan was a creature with a human head and snake body.

To resurrect the ancestor from millennia ago, the Beiyao Ancient Clan seeks special bloodline females each century for cultivation and then performs living sacrifices to summon the resurrected ancestor.

Dongfang Ziyue, as a clan woman of the Beiyao Ancient Clan, is the target for the upcoming living sacrifice.

In light of this, Lin Zifeng was filled with curiosity about the Beiyao Ancient Clan, thinking it surely contained unique records. If he could easily enter the clan, might he gain a greater understanding of the world, perhaps even return to the Mortal World?

"Now let me go." The man in black had revealed everything to Lin Zifeng.

In his view, Lin Zifeng shouldn’t threaten his life.

"Certainly." Lin Zifeng nodded.

The man in black sprang from the ground, but just as he leaped up, the Primordial Battle Banner above his head suddenly plunged towards him.

"Squish"

The flagpole of the Primordial Battle Banner pierced deeply into the man’s head, instantly blood flowers splattered, his eyes wide in disbelief as he turned toward Lin Zifeng.

"You!"

The eyes of the man in black were filled with fury.

But Lin Zifeng responded with a cold laugh, saying, "I can’t feel at ease unless you die."

After speaking, with a thought, the Primordial Battle Banner burst with light, an extremely powerful force exploded the man’s head into pieces...

Blood water sprayed violently, blood mist filled the air, chunks of flesh scattered everywhere.

After completing this, Lin Zifeng retrieved the Primordial Battle Banner with a sneer, and then turned indifferently to leave...

Along his way, Lin Zifeng continually thought about the Beiyao Ancient Clan. Aside from these ancient clans, he couldn’t think of another power capable of finding clues to return to the Mortal World.

Even knowing the ancient clans might hold a way to return, with his current strength, could he really enter these ancient clans?

With this in mind, he kept pondering that, should he successfully enter an ancient clan, he could find some clues. Then, returning to the Mortal World would be within reach.

Returning to the Marquis Mansion, the beautiful woman he inadvertently glimpsed bathing earlier had already left, astonishing Lin Zifeng, discovering the cold beauty was the eldest daughter of the National Guardian Martial God, Dongfang Ziyue.

No wonder she was so young and beautiful; earlier, he thought she was a young wife of the Martial God...

After returning to the Marquis Mansion, he slept until daylight the next day.

Early in the morning, Lin Zifeng jumped from bed, ready to recover some depleted Elemental Power from last night.

Dongfang Xiaohuang arrived at his room early with attendants, patiently waiting outside his door for a long time.

Only when Lin Zifeng opened the door did he see the smiling face of the refined little girl.

"Lin Zifeng, you’re awake." The little girl held her hands behind her back, seeing Lin Zifeng with a smile.

"Morning, Xiaohuang." Lin Zifeng smiled, the fragrant aroma causing his stomach to churn.

"Lin Zifeng, I’m going to the National Institute today. Do you want to come?" The little girl asked with a grin.

"Oh? National Institute?" Lin Zifeng furrowed his brows, uncertain of the so-called National Institute.

"Hehe, it’s where I study. By the way, when I saved you, it wasn’t only me but also our teacher and classmates." Dongfang Xiaohuang smiled.

"Then thank them for me; I’ll definitely visit the National Institute when I have time." Currently, he was busy, unable to accompany Dongfang Xiaohuang to her institute. Even visiting would wait some time, as he wished to venture to the ancient clans.

Only within those ancient clans could he find what he desired, otherwise, he couldn’t return to the Mortal World.
