C31 (1/2)

For a moment, only Qin Zhan and the rest were left, as well as Gu Feng who was standing beside his corpse.

Ignoring the expression on Qin Zhan's face, Gu Feng squatted beside him and pulled out the Ivory Bone Blade hanging on his waist, and directly stabbed it into Chu Zhen's dantian.

After doing all that, he turned to look at Qin Zhan, only to hear him say: ”Return to the residence!” His expression was one of displeasure.

”Speak, what happened!”

Slapping the table, Qin Zhan's face was filled with unhappiness.

Qin Ling wanted to say something. In her opinion, Gu Feng killing Chu Zhen was just for his own sake.

However, when she was about to speak, Gu Feng had already opened his mouth.

”City Lord, actually?”

In the next hour, Gu Feng told them the reason from the time he awakened his Innate Spirit Root to when he saved Qin Ling at the unmarked cemetery.

”In other words, the one who was detected by the Battle Soul Academy, and had her spirit root awakened, was not Chu Zhen, but you.”

Qin Zhan looked at Gu Feng. He had always thought that it was just a coincidence, but it turns out that Chu Chengfang actually thought of a method to impersonate him and did such a malicious thing just for his son to be able to go to the Battle Soul Academy.

”So it was you who saved my daughter from the unmarked cemetery.”

With regards to this point, Qin Zhan also only found out now.

Gu Feng nodded one by one.

”City Lord, that Ye Han has come looking for us, we will definitely not let this matter rest.”

For a moment, Qin Zhan did not speak. He only looked at Gu Feng as if he was thinking about something.

”Escape, if you leave, then Ye Han will definitely come and find you.” The meaning in his words was that he only wanted to help others, and not the Qin family.

”Father!”

Since Qin Zhan had said so, Qin Ling was displeased. The moment he opened his mouth, he was stared at back.

”Mayor.”

Gu Feng laughed bitterly.

”I'm afraid it's not that simple, when Ye Han saw young miss that day, he wanted to capture young miss and use her as his furnace. Even if I were to leave, I'm afraid Ye Han would still come here and snatch young miss away.”

When Gu Feng said this, he glanced at his daughter.

Qin Ling nodded.

”Yes, Father!”

”This means that we won't be able to escape this calamity?”

Qin Zhan's eyes revealed a pondering look, his face was filled with worry, even Qin Zhan was unable to see through Ye Han's cultivation, and it was as if he had reached the Awakening Realm, even if he used all of his City Lord's Mansion's energy, he would still not be his match.

Seeing Qin Zhan's worried look, Gu Feng cleared his throat.

”City Governor, I have a plan.”

Gu Feng knew that it was time to reveal his plan.

Qin Zhan and Qin Ling turned to look at Gu Feng.

”Since First Miss and I have awakened our spiritual roots, we naturally have to go to the Battle Soul Academy. Taking advantage of Ye Han going to the Chu Family, First Miss and I can immediately set off and go straight to the Battle Soul Academy. Once we reach the Battle Soul Academy, we will naturally be safe.”

”Also, if Ye Han comes to the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord can tell me that I've already escaped.”

After Gu Feng finished speaking, Qin Zhan, however, did not speak at all.

When he thought about going to the Battle Soul Academy with Gu Feng, Qin Ling was naturally overjoyed. Seeing that his father still had not responded, he felt a little anxious.

”Father, what are you thinking about? Once Ye Han comes to our doorstep, it will be too late!”

Qin Zhan looked at his daughter, then turned and nodded at Gu Feng.

”Gu Feng, today I will betroth my daughter to you!”

Gu Feng was shocked, he never thought that Qin Zhan would actually say such a thing.

Qin Ling was also surprised, but her face had a blush, she stomped her feet, revealing her bashfulness.

”Dad, what are you saying!”

Qin Zhan only looked at Gu Feng to see if he would agree.

Qin Zhan thought for a moment, and then he came to an understanding.

This time, not to mention the long way to the Battle Soul Academy, there were many fierce beasts that came through the Great Wastelands. Even if they reached the Battle Soul Academy, they were unfamiliar with the place, and there would be plenty of strife there. The main reason why he betrothed Qin Ling to him was to ensure that he took care of him.

Qin Ling secretly glanced at Gu Feng. She, who had always had feelings for Gu Feng, would have liked for him to do this.

Just that, would Gu Feng be willing?
