C1040 Dispute
The middle-aged man disappeared, and Xu Feng's dream collapsed as well. Beautiful flowers drifted into the sky, and in the distance, the darkness gradually devoured everything. Before long, it arrived in front of Xu Feng.
However, the darkness didn't stop. It devoured Xu Feng very quickly. Xu Feng's consciousness returned to the darkness, and the dream completely collapsed!
"Bang!"
A burst of pain came. Xu Feng suddenly opened his eyes and saw that he had rolled down from the bed. He looked around blankly. What happened in the dream was still vivid in his mind, and it made him feel a lingering fear in his heart.
Originally, he thought that the Sin Falling City was absolutely safe. Tu Yingying, Lu Yifu, and the others were not far from here. If something happened, they would definitely be able to rush over immediately.
But he never thought that the enemy would invade in such a way, and even to the extent that they could not be found. It really made people feel fear.
After a long time, Xu Feng slowly got up from the ground. A cool breeze blew past. He actually felt some coldness. Only at this time did he realize that his entire body was covered in cold sweat.
"It seems like I can't be careless no matter where I go!"
Shaking his head helplessly, Xu Feng smiled bitterly in his heart. However, he was more and more curious about the identity of the middle-aged man.
"Hehehehe..."
The crowing pulled Xu Feng out of his contemplation and shook his head. After throwing away all the messy thoughts in his mind, Xu Feng took out a set of clothes from his Storage Ring. After he went to the bathroom to wash them, he also washed away the haze from last night.
"Hu... Even cultivators can't be excluded. There are some things that are much more comfortable to be a mortal!"
Xu Feng stretched his back and muttered.
Cultivators had longer lifespans. This was something that ordinary people envied. However, once one stepped onto the path of a cultivator, the danger they would face would be much greater. Just like what happened last night, even if he slept, there is a possibility that you will die in your dream.
However, Xu Feng sighed. It wasn't because of mutual deception in the world of cultivators, but because he felt refreshed and incomparably comfortable after taking a bath.
The metabolism of cultivators was very strong. They didn't need to take a bath, change clothes, and eat, but these two ordinary things made Xu Feng feel that mortals were the most beautiful.
At this time, the first ray of sunlight had slowly risen from the east wind. After the battle yesterday, a new day had begun.
The morning sun slowly rose into the sky and shone on the morning fog. It was a hazy scene. The entire Sin Falling City was shrouded in a dense fog. At this moment, the Sin Falling City was peaceful and incomparably beautiful. After the darkness, there would be sunlight. Wasn't this referring to the scene in front of them?
"It's so beautiful!"
Xu Feng took a deep breath and inhaled a cool breath into his stomach. Such a refreshing breath could only be felt in a corner of the Sin Falling City.
After enjoying the beautiful scenery, Xu Feng started to cultivate on the morning sun. He sat cross-legged in the void and slowly entered a state of cultivation. The Yang light shone on Xu Feng's body. The temperature was just right, and it was warm.
It was only at noon that Xu Feng stopped cultivating. Under such a calm environment, Xu Feng felt as if his mind had been cleansed. It was very comfortable.
He had just experienced a great battle yesterday, but now, he was like an old man who stood aloof from worldly affairs. His mind had become incomparably peaceful, and even he couldn't help but sigh at this miraculous feeling.
After changing his clothes, Xu Feng walked into the courtyard of the Sin Falling City's City Lord's Mansion. Even though it was already noon, there were still many cultivators cultivating in the City Lord's Mansion. They didn't seem to notice Xu Feng's arrival.
After walking for about 15 minutes, Yee Shuihan was drinking tea in a small garden not far away. Xu Feng walked over and said with a smile, "City Lord Yi, I'm really sorry about yesterday. I hope City Lord Yi won't mind!"
"Hehe... Young Hero Xu, you don't have to be so polite. Take a seat, let's drink tea together!"
Yee Shuihan chuckled. He did not mind. After inviting Xu Feng to sit down, he personally brewed a cup of tea and brought it to Xu Feng.
"How are your injuries? Your mental state seems to be pretty good. I think you should be fine!"
After taking a sip of tea, Yee Shuihan asked again with concern. Xu Feng did not hide anything and told Yee Shuihan directly that he went to rest yesterday because he was mentally exhausted.
In fact, Yee Shuihan was not weak. He could clearly see Xu Feng's condition. Xu Feng said it out loud because he did not want Yee Shuihan to have any unnecessary prejudice in his heart.
"Oh... I understand!"
Yee Shuihan nodded and then said, "Now the entire Southern Ridge is hunting you. It is indeed difficult for a young man like you to face so many fierce tigers and wolves."
Hearing this, Xu Feng could hear the implied meaning and smiled. He did not mind and said generously, "I don't know if City Lord Yi has any hidden secrets. Just say it. If Xu Feng can do it, I won't delay it! "
"Young Hero Xu is indeed a bright pearl with sharp eyes. You can tell what I'm thinking with just a glance!"
Yee Shuihan chuckled. Although he said it politely, his words were not polite at all. "To tell you the truth, the entire Southern Ridge is plundering you. I am afraid that you will bring harm to our Sin Falling City!"
Initially, Xu Feng had a good impression of Yee Shuihan, but now he finally understood what was going on. He didn't meet Yee Shuihan here. Yee Shuihan had been waiting for him here. Yee Shuihan wasn't really concerned about his injuries. He just wanted to take the opportunity to tell Xu Feng. He wasn't welcome here.
Xu Feng's hand that was holding the tea stopped. He slowly put down the teacup and said softly, "Since City Lord Yi does not welcome me, just say it. There is no need to be like this!"
Xu Feng liked people who came straight to the point. Now that they were comparing the two of them, it seemed that Yee Shuihan was a bit hypocritical.
However, Xu Feng did not get angry. One reason was that Yee Shuihan and Tu Yingying had a good relationship. If he made a big fuss here, it would only make Tu Yingying's situation difficult. Second, it was because he understood Yee Shuihan's current situation. He had been running Sin Falling City for so many years. Naturally, he did not wish to be destroyed because of Xu Feng.
Although Xu Feng said it bluntly, Yee Shuihan understood what Xu Feng meant. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "I hope Young Hero Xu can understand my painstaking efforts, and I hope Young Hero Xu can consider the people of Sin Falling City!"
"I understand!"
Xu Feng nodded. He did not have the mood to continue drinking the tea. Standing up, he continued, "Thank you for the tea, City Lord Yi. I will leave today. Naturally, I won't let Sin Falling City suffer any unnecessary troubles!"
"City Lord Yi, what do you mean by this?"
As soon as Xu Feng's voice faded, another voice was heard. Without needing to look, just by listening to the voice, Xu Feng already knew the owner of the voice. It was just that at this moment, Tu Yingying's voice was a little cold.
Taking three steps and two steps, Tu Yingying quickly arrived in front of Yee Shuihan. She stared at Yee Shuihan with a burning gaze and said again, "Is it that even the guest I invited is going to be expelled? It seems that after leaving for a few decades, this place is indeed your world!"
"Yingying, you have to understand me..."
Yee Shuihan could not help but feel somewhat flustered under Tu Yingying's gaze. But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Tu Yingying. "If it was not for the fact that there was no way to go, I would not have come back to disturb you. I didn't expect that the friendship I had that day couldn't be compared to the power of Sin Falling City. Yee Shuihan, I have misjudged you!"
After saying that, Tu Yingying did not waste any more time talking nonsense. She turned around and pulled Xu Feng's arm. She said coldly, "Let's go. There will naturally be a place for us if we are not left here!"
Although Tu Yingying was a girl, sometimes her character was even more unyielding than an ordinary man. She pulled Xu Feng and quickly walked towards the entrance of City Lord's Mansion.
After so many years, Tu Yingying was not forced to a corner. Without Sin Falling City, she would not be able to survive. If she was not able to cross the ocean and return to the Central State, she would be able to avoid the pursuit of the Southern Ridge families.
"Don't! Don't! Don't!"
When he heard that Tu Yingying was about to leave, Yee Shuihan panicked. He quickly caught up with the two of them. He blocked in front of her and said with a smile, "Yingying, don't you know what kind of person I, Yee Shuihan, am? I'm just worried about the Sin Falling City that we built together, and the other people in the Sin Falling City. That's all!"
"Affected? You're not afraid of blushing even if you talk big!"
Tu Yingying coldly snorted and her expression did not improve at all. " In this Sin Falling City, which one is an ordinary person? When they come to Sin Falling City, Sin Falling City will protect them. The people that I, Tu Yingying, bring here... But you can't protect them. You are clearly not putting me in your eyes!"
"No! No!"
Yee Shuihan quickly explained after being scolded by Tu Yingying. However, at this moment, his words were extremely pale. No matter what he said, Tu Yingying still had an angry look on her face.
However, when the word protection fell into Xu Feng's heart, it shocked him. After he came to his senses, he was touched.
Initially, he thought that Tu Yingying had brought him here just to find a place to settle down. However, he didn't expect that Tu Yingying's real intention was to ask the entire Sin Falling City to help him resist the hunt of the three great families.
"Yingying... Forget it! It's not easy to establish the Sin Falling City. Why would I need to sacrifice the lives of the entire Sin Falling City just for me?"
Because of Xu Feng, many people had been implicated. Even Lu Baixian had died because of him. What Xu Feng did not want the most was to implicate others.
He also understood that it wasn't easy to build the Sin Falling City, especially the bustling streets. Xu Feng was even more unwilling to destroy them.0
"No, the purpose of building the Sin Falling City is to protect those practitioners who have no other choice. If we give up on protecting you today, who will be willing to enter the Sin Falling City tomorrow?"
However, Tu Yingying didn't listen to Xu Feng's words at all. Her brows were cold and straight. She was clearly trying to force Yee Shuihan to stay. As long as he didn't agree to let Xu Feng stay here, Tu Yingying would still take Xu Feng and leave the Sin Falling City!
