C1339 Assassination in the Middle of the Night
However, as soon as he left the Medicine Vat, Patriarch Ka Tu felt that something was wrong. The energy within his body was rapidly absorbing the life force that he had replenished over the past few days. In just two to three breaths of time, his body had finally recovered. And then shrivelled up again!
"Ah!"
This force that was almost stripping made Ka Tu cry out involuntarily. Xu Feng was shocked and did not dare to delay any longer. He hurriedly placed Ka Tu into the Hundred Full Wine and soaked him in it.
A fragrance of wine spread throughout his entire body. The Spiritual Force contained within the Hundred Perfect Wine quickly replenished the Yuan energy that Patriarch Ka Tu had lost. Very soon, his face once again flushed red.
"I can feel it, I can feel it!"
Ka Tu's voice carried a bit of panic because of this power. It was even more invasive than before, and he had a feeling... As long as he left the Medicine Vat... That power... The power within his body... His life force would be completely absorbed, and this time, he would not be given a chance to struggle.
"This is indeed a problem!"
Xu Feng naturally saw what happened just now. This was the first time he witnessed how terrifying the energy in Patriarch Ka Tu's body was, and he had no idea how Patriarch Ka Tu managed to endure it in the past.
At the same time, he also knew the seriousness of the matter - Patriarch Ka Tu's body had been destroyed by that force in the past. As Patriarch Ka Tu's body weakened, the energy was no longer replenished. It also weakened. Now that Patriarch Ka Tu had recovered, that power had also recovered. It wouldn't be an easy task to force him out.
"Wu... If there's really no other way, the Gray Essence Strength and Sky Breaking Spell can always suppress him!"
Xu Feng was thinking about how to deal with this, and he had some confidence in himself. After all, whether it was the power of the Gray Essence Strength or the Sky Breaking Spell, they were both incomparably powerful. Xu Feng was confident in suppressing any ordinary strength.
"Uncle, how do you feel?"
Putting these questions aside, Xu Feng did not think about it for the time being. What he needed to care about now was whether Patriarch Ka Tu could adapt to the effects of the Hundred Full Wine.
"I feel good. Most of my body has recovered. I can still accept these medicinal effects!"
Ka Tu said in a deep voice. From his tone, Xu Feng could hear his worries.
In the past, he was determined to die. He only wanted to see Ka Te again before he died. Now that hope had risen in his heart once again, he was naturally afraid of death.
You can look down on death once, but you can't look down on death twice, especially when the hope is right in front of you.
"Uncle, don't worry. I have my own way. Leave it to me!"
Xu Feng was full of confidence. There was even a smile on his face. He looked very confident. This made the anxious Patriarch Ka Tu calm down a little.
Indeed, the reason why Xu Feng was so confident was because he was putting on a show for Patriarch Ka Tu. He had to build up Patriarch Ka Tu's confidence so that he could have a greater advantage in the following actions.
Think about it, before the battle even began, one side had already admitted defeat. Was there a need to continue this kind of battle?
"Uncle, you should rest. I also need to rest!"
After saying goodbye to Patriarch Ka Tu, Xu Feng staggered out of the alchemy room. On the way, he even spat out a mouthful of black blood, which made him look very weak.
These were all faked by Xu Feng, but when he returned to his room, he felt really dizzy.
Refining Hundred Wine during the day had really consumed too much energy. Now, he was lying on the bed and did not want to move at all. He just wanted to have a good rest.
"Chiang Nu, pay more attention to the situation in the pill refining room!"
After warning her, Xu Feng closed his eyes. In less than ten breaths of time, Xu Feng's snores could be heard.
"These few days have been tough enough..."
Chiang Nu looked at Xu Feng lying on the bed and murmured softly. She quietly covered Xu Feng with a blanket and helped him keep vigil as usual.
"Boom!"
The night was still dark, but in the middle of the night, a loud sound echoed throughout the entire Hidden Village. Chiang Nu immediately stood up because the sound came from the alchemy room!
"Shua!"
Such a loud sound naturally woke Xu Feng up. He suddenly sat up from the bed and hurriedly asked, "What happened?! ”
"There's a sound coming from the alchemy room!"
Chiang Nu answered truthfully. Xu Feng stood up instantly. He did not even have time to tidy his clothes. He rushed out of the door and said as he walked, "Quickly go and take a look. Maybe someone wants to kill the patriarch!"
Of course, other than some people wanting to kill the patriarch, there was also the possibility that the force in the patriarch's body had changed!
Because he was worried about the patriarch, Xu Feng did not dare to delay. It was just that he was too tired during the day and had not fully recovered. Now his head was still dizzy and he walked with a sway.
Chiang Nu saw his appearance and shook her head. She rushed to Xu Feng's side with quick steps and flew out with Xu Feng on her shoulder. A gust of wind blew past and he arrived in front of the alchemy room.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Ka Ming and ___, who were guarding the door, were injured and fell to the ground. On their bodies, there were scars.
Although Xu Feng did not have a deep understanding of weapons, he could tell that... The blade marks on their bodies were caused by five or six inches of sharp blades. The first thing that appeared in Xu Feng's mind was the few Black Clothed Man that wanted to kill him.
"What happened?!"
Chiang Nu put Xu Feng down. Xu Feng's footsteps floated and came in front of the two of them. After taking out the Medicine Pill and letting them consume it, he asked in a deep voice.
"Someone wanted to kill the patriarch, but we forced him to retreat!"
After consuming the Medicine Pill, the dripping blood on his hand gradually stopped. Ka Ming's eyes were full of concentration as he said in a muffled voice.
"What's wrong? What's going on?"
Before he could ask any other questions, the Great Elder's voice could be heard. He turned around and saw the Great Elder leading the other elders over.
There was no lack of elders. Xu Feng frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
It was obviously impossible to escape from this place in such a short period of time, change clothes, and return to this place.
"Could it be that I really misunderstood them?"
Xu Feng thought in his heart, allowing Ka Ming and the Great Elder to explain what he had just experienced.
"This is too much! Go and find him! There is actually someone in this village who dares to harm the patriarch!"
When the Great Elder heard this, his eyes were about to spew flames. He immediately gave the orders to the other elders. When the elders heard this, they quickly spread out and began searching the village.
"Then Great Elder, who do you think will be the people who want to kill the chief?"
At this moment, Xu Feng spoke. His eyes were burning as he looked at the Great Elder. His voice was low and deep, as if it was the cold snow that had been frozen for many years.
What had happened tonight had truly angered him. The Great Elder wanted to take control of the power of the village. Xu Feng had no right to interfere in this matter. However, if he really wanted to kill the patriarch because of this... Xu Feng would never agree to it!
"I'm not sure, but once I find out about it, I will definitely use the sect's law to deal with it and give everyone an explanation!"
The Great Elder spoke in a straightforward manner. Xu Feng couldn't find any flaw in his eyes. In fact, there wasn't even any fluctuation in the depths of his heart.
There were only two types of situations like this. One was that the Great Elder had never done it before, and the other was that the Great Elder was too scheming. Even the Aura of Heaven and Earth wouldn't be able to find out about it.
Due to all the things that had happened before, Xu Feng naturally believed the latter possibility even more.
"It can't be you, right? Great Elder!"2
The fury in Xu Feng's heart was unbearable. His eyes were filled with flames as he questioned.
When Chiang Nu heard Xu Feng's words, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly pulled Xu Feng back and said with a smile, "Great Elder, don't take it seriously. Xu Feng only said such nonsense because he was too worried about the patriarch!"
However, Xu Feng ignored her and continued to look at the Great Elder with a burning gaze.
Sometimes, people were like this. Once their minds were broken by anger, their usual calm would disappear. All actions and words would be controlled by anger.
"Xu Feng, what do you mean by this?!"
The Great Elder was stunned by Xu Feng's question. It was his son, Ka Lu who stood out and shouted. At the same time, he grabbed Xu Feng's clothes and clenched his fists.
"It's what you heard!"
Xu Feng didn't back down. Even if his clothes were being pulled, he still wanted to know what was going on.
"You bastard!"
Ka Lu had always been a hot-tempered man. Naturally, Xu Feng couldn't bear to question his father like this. He raised his fist high and was about to smash it down.
"Ka Lu, let go!"
The Great Elder's calm voice rang out. When Ka Lu heard this, he was stunned for a moment and stopped his falling fist.
Of course, even if the Great Elder didn't stop him, this punch wouldn't land. Chiang Nu, who was standing at the side, would naturally stop him.
"Father..."
"I told you to let go!"
The Great Elder's voice became heavier. Only then did Ka Lu let go indignantly. In his opinion, his father was conscientious and conscientious for the village, even though he was usually a little harsh on them. However, he would never do such a thing as killing the chief.
Slowly, he came to Xu Feng's front and the Great Elder looked at him. He said calmly, "Child, I don't know what someone told you. But I can assure you that I have never intended to kill the patriarch. And I also hope that the patriarch can recover! "
Looking at the Great Elder's eyes, Xu Feng's mood gradually calmed down. He gave the Great Elder a complicated look and walked to the side without saying a word.
"Is it really not him?"
The Great Elder ignored Xu Feng and left with the other villagers. There was only one question left in Xu Feng's mind.
When he and the Great Elder looked at each other just now, Xu Feng didn't seem to be able to dodge. In other words, the Great Elder didn't say anything.
Anyone who lied would have some special characteristics on their body. Unfortunately, the Great Elder had been acting very normally from the beginning until the end. There was nothing suspicious about it. That was why Xu Feng had always suspected him.
"Could it really not be him?"
Xu Feng did not understand this question. He raised his head and asked Chiang Nu, who was standing beside him.
