70 Lin Feng’s State Of Mind (1/2)

mo xie had never been as shocked and scared as he had been when he saw nan gong ling growing furious. he had to think carefully about what his next words would be. he bowed respectfully then said: ”patriarch, mo xie admits his mistake.”

mo xie and mo cang lan had power in the yun hai sect but nan gong ling was the patriarch. nan gong ling had become furious at mo xie's actions. mo xie had no choice but to admit his mistake.

”maybe i am too aggressive and too arrogant… maybe i've been disrespectful to the patriarch…” said mo xie while insulting himself and acting humble.

when nan gong ling saw that mo xie acknowledged his mistakes, he started to calm down. he coldly glanced at mo xie and said: ”since you acknowledge your mistake, let's forget about it this time. if this happens again then there will be no more chances.”

”regarding the disciple on stage, yu hao was the first to provoke him and state his intent. he threatened that he would cripple the cultivation of this young disciple then planned to break his arms. he showed no intention of having any mercy and only gave the impression of cruelty. this was then returned onto him.”

”but patriarch….” mo xie wanted to speak again. he hadn't understood the reason why nan gong ling was furious after all.

”huh?” nan gong ling glanced at him furiously. mo xie swallowed his previous thoughts and forced himself to say: ”patriarch, you are wise and brilliant.”

nan gong ling groaned, he didn't really care about what mo xie had to say. he then looked at lin feng and said: ”what's your name?”

lin feng raised his head and looked at nan gong ling. he looked incredibly calm at this moment.

”lin feng.”

”lin feng, good job, you are now an elite disciple of the yun hai sect.” declared nan gong ling. nan gong ling was really impressed by lin feng's abilities and actions. he personally asked lin feng his name and personally gave him the status of an elite disciple. many others would never have that privilege. the other disciples would need to check the results with the elder in charge of the elite disciple exam.

lin feng was smiling from ear to ear. his smile seemed to be filled with a strange feeling which wasn't gratitude. his smile contained the feeling of accomplishment.

”only those who are strong enough can demand respect.”

nan gong ling hadn't forgotten that lin feng had once said words in that respect. at that moment, lin feng had showed that he held an extremely strong power and everyone had witnessed it. the question was as to how nan gong ling was going to answer lin feng's actions. he had given lin feng the answer he had wanted.

mo xie had tried to hand lin feng over to lin qian and chu zhan peng. he hadn't gotten involved in the incident at that time. he had thought that an ordinary disciple wasn't worth creating a dispute with an elder. so he had just watched from the sidelines.

but this time was different, mo xie had wanted to kill lin feng again and nan gong ling had stopped him. it was only because lin feng had shown that he was truly a genius and proved it by returning with such an incredible increase in power. nan gong ling now knew about the precipice of zhangu so he was always going to value lin feng. protector bei had told him about it when he had wanted to kill mo xie. mo xie had been humiliated but nan gong ling had actually helped him in a way. did mo xie really want to continue making this talented young disciple his enemy?

but… was that enough for lin feng?

obviously it wasn't. lin feng was not satisfied at all. would he really let someone who had made so many attempts on his life get away with only a slap in the face?

when the ferocious beasts had attacked the sect, mo xie simply handed lin feng over to them without hesitation. lin feng didn't believe that nan gong ling was not aware of these actions. nan gong ling may have been able to overlook these incidents, but could the same be said about lin feng?

just a moment ago while in the presence of everyone, mo xie had wanted to kill lin feng again and nan gong ling had seen it with his own eyes.

had nan gong ling punished mo xie? everyone had the impression that he had but in lin feng's eyes, he had just humiliated mo xie. was nan gong ling just trying to make lin feng feel grateful for this minor kindness and make him serve the sect?

lin feng had never been a servile person. this was his second life and he had almost died at the hands of mo xie too many times. were nan gong ling's words enough? they were too far from being enough. an elder was an elder and an ordinary disciple was just an ordinary disciple but because lin feng had proved to everyone that he was a genius, he was now an elite disciple.

”there is only one solution to this problem. if mo xie remains in this sect then i will make my own path, however if he is no longer within the sect then i will stay.”

thought lin feng. he knew that nan gong ling and the yun hai sect had to choose one person. if they chose him then he would dedicate his life to the yun hai sect. if they chose mo xie then not only would he leave the sect but he would return one day to take his revenge… because of the hatred that he held for mo xie there was no longer a peaceful solution. if the yun hai sect was unable to choose him over mo xie. then he had no other choice but leave the sect.

lin feng didn't say what he was thinking. he had hoped that nan gong ling would choose him when the time came. this was only the beginning of the grudge between them. during the elite disciple exam, lin feng had already planned how to take care of mo xie.

lin feng stepped down from the fighting stage and looked determined. each of his steps were filled with firm determination.

nan gong ling was observing lin feng's eyes and thought that he looked very mysterious. it was not surprising that this young disciple would have some secrets as many exceptional talents did.

”how strong and mysterious.”

”if i was that strong, i would act the same way that he does”

”even if there were ten disciples who would join me to fight against him, we wouldn't be able to win.”
