697 While Virtue Is A Single Foot Tall, The Demon Is Ten Feet Tall (2/2)
”Feng Qingzi, what are you doing over at my territory?” An aura of unparalleled might burst forth from the void. This aura was extremely overbearing, filled with a tyrannical nature.
'Isn't this the aura of the Utmost Being, Cruel?' The moment Lin Fan sensed this aura, his face changed immediately.
”Cruel, this old man came forth to settle something. I shall leave now.”
…
'Indeed! That old man did not leave at all!' The moment Lin Fan heard the voice of Feng Qingzi, his heart jerked a little. Holy f*ck! This old man was really too good at enduring! To think that he could tolerate for this long!
”Hmph. Do you think you can come and go as you wish? Stay here!” The voice of the Utmost Being, Cruel, was akin to a booming thunderbolt right now. The moment he struck out, the void trembled.
In a flash, Feng Qingzi's body shifted out nimbly as he dived into the void in the distance.
Bang! Boom! Thump! Whoosh!
The battle that ensued was earthshattering. Eventually, it moved further and further away into the void at the far reaches of the skies.
'To think that the one who would save me eventually would turn out to be the Utmost Being, Cruel.' Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. If not for the appearance of the Utmost Being, who knew how long more this old man was going to wait for.
But, as they said, 'all's well that ends well.' Eventually, the old man still left.
However, right at that moment, Lin Fan's sight was caught by a dazzling golden flash!
”Hahaha! That old man has forgotten about his storage ring!” The moment Lin Fan saw this, his heart leaped with joy.
What was this called again?
Right, trying to catch a chicken but ending up losing the rice used to lure it? Did Yours Truly really come across as someone that easy to deal with?
Based on the outcome? Obviously not.
”Rich! I'm definitely rich for sure this time around! Oh well, this storage ring that you've dropped, old man? I guess it should belong to me, oh ho!” Lin Fan stood up straight and walked towards the storage ring immediately.
But right now, safety came before anything else. Lin Fan still did not exit his Stealth status.
Looking at the storage ring, Lin Fan gulped down his saliva and stretched out that kind and compassionate hand of his.
'Ding…Congratulations on discovering Jail of Greed'
”EH?”
The moment Lin Fan touched the storage ring, the notification from the system rang out. When Lin Fan heard the sound of the notification, he was stumped entirely.
”Holy f*ck! That old man scammed me!” The color drained from Lin Fan's face immediately. He wanted to toss away the storage ring. However, before he could react, a bright burst of light shone out from the storage ring. It took on the shape of a jail, trapping Lin Fan within it.
”Earth tunneling!”
Without any bit of hesitation, Lin Fan wanted to tunnel into the ground. However, he realized that the ground seemed to have been sealed up! No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get into it at all!
”Haha…HAHAHA!!!” All of a sudden, a cheery laughter chirped through the world.
”How now, lad? You've been tricked, haven't you?” A figure appeared before Lin Fan. And when Lin Fan caught sight of who it was, he was flabbergasted.
Two streams of tears flowed streaked down his face gently.
”While virtue is a single foot tall, the demon is ten feet tall.”
”Old man, weren't you chased by the Utmost Being of the Ancient race?” Lin Fan could not even bring himself to cry out over his anguish right now. This was the last stretch now. To think that he would be done in by this old man.
”Utmost Being of the Ancient race? Oh, did you see him? That's just an aura that this old man here simulated out. How now? Do you submit?” Feng Qingzi laughed out brightly. All of those sulky feelings he had accumulated over the past few days had disappeared entirely by now.
”You…!” Lin Fan had nothing to say right now. His plan was already well laid out. To think that this old man's plan would be even craftier than his.
There was always someone better than one out there. Seemed like there were people who were way more cunning than he was.
”Now, are you willing to take this old fellow here as your master?”
Lin Fan, ”…”
