Ji Zhiyin stared at the man coldly but did not say anything in the end as she was aware of his identity. He was Du Huanfeng, the young master of the Myriad Pill Palace.
The young man, Du Huanfeng, was accompanied by four old men. Each one of them emitted an aura as powerful as Qin Wuji. Evidently, they were at the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm. Yet, with such an identity, they were actually acted as bodyguards of Du Huanfeng. It could be seen how high Du Huanfeng's status was in the Myriad Pill Palace.
At this moment, Lei Jin descended from the sky and stood before Lei Feifei. His gaze fixed on Du Huanfeng and said calmly. "We can handle the situation by ourselves. No need to trouble you."
Du Huanfeng waved his jade fan and looked at the miserable appearances of the people on the ship before shifting his gaze back to Lei Jin. "Sure. I'll leave it to Senior Lei then."
His face was full of smiles, but one could see a trace of mockery on it. He gave a signal to the four old men behind him, and they quickly elected profound defense around him.
Lei Jin did not bother with Du Huanfeng further and turned to check Lei Feifei. "Miss…"
Lei Feifei waved her hand impatiently. "Save your words for now. Let's bring everyone out of here first." She then turned to Yun Lintian and sent a sound transmission. "Elder Mu, do you have a way out?"
Du Huanfeng seemed to notice something and discovered Yun Lintian standing unaffected by the Abyssal Energy. His brows raised in surprise, and he secretly asked the old man on his left. "Third Elder. Who is he?"
The old man used his Spiritual Sense to sweep on Yun Lintian and Linlin rudely before replying. "Fifth level of Heaven Profound Realm. Eighteen years old. There's a trace of Profound Spirit Liquid. He knows how to deal with Abyssal Energy?"
If Yun Lintian heard this, he would be shocked because the old man actually used the terms "Abyssal Energy," not "Abyssal Poison" like others.
Du Huanfeng frowned slightly and remained silent. No one knew what he was thinking.
Yun Lintian could perceive the Spiritual Sense swept over him, but he didn't care much. When he saw Du Huanfeng appearing on the deck, his intuition told him there was something wrong with the latter's body, but he couldn't figure it out for the time being. It was a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling coming out of him.
"Big Brother Yun, there's something on this person. It's a kind of divine artifact." Linlin's voice resounded in Yun Lintian's mind.
Hearing this, Yun Lintian didn't intend to probe further and replied to Lei Feifei. "There's no other way aside from asking him to take action." Before Lei Feifei could say anything, Yun Lintian added. "The four people around him knew how to deal with this Abyssal Poison."
Lei Feifei's brows couldn't help knitting together. She was naturally aware of this, but she didn't want to owe this bastard a favor.
Yin Shang, who was pouring her energy into the crest, saw Du Huanfeng's appearance, and her face abruptly changed. She had never thought the young master of Myriad Pill Palace would come along this time.
Without thinking further, Yin Shang retracted the crest and decisively executed the forbidden escape technique. In that instant, her figure vanished into the darkness without leaving a trace behind.
The Abyssal Energy around this area gradually faded before completely disappearing a few breaths later.
Everyone was relieved to see this scene. They quickly helped each other up and tried their best to expel the Abyssal Energy.
Swoosh!
The Black Wing's elders returned to the ship one after another, guarding around Lei Feifei. They looked at Du Huanfeng, who had a leisurely smile on his face, with complicated expressions. Although they didn't want to admit it, Du Huanfeng's appearance had indeed scared Yin Shang away.
Du Huanfeng fanned the jade fan and chuckled. "As expected from Leader Lei. You can bring everyone out of this difficult situation unscratched. It's truly a remarkable achievement." His voice sounded natural and sincere, but everyone with a brain knew it was full of sarcasm.
Lei Feifei stared at Du Huanfeng and said to everyone. "Bring the injured people back first, and the rest go back to the control room." She turned to Xiao Lian and said. "Go down and try to appease the passengers."
Xiao Lian accepted the task readily and left the dock along with other crews.
Being ignored by Lei Feifei, Du Huanfeng didn't care much about it. He walked toward Yun Lintian and said with a smile. "This brother, may I know what your name is?"
Before Yun Lintian could answer, Ji Zhiyin suddenly spoke. "He's Mu Chen, our new guest elder."
Lei Feifei frowned slightly as she looked at Ji Zhiyin. The latter didn't feel anything and said nothing further.
Meanwhile, Qin Wuji and others glanced at each other as they obviously knew Ji Zhiyin's intention. However, none of them say anything in the end.
"Oh? Guest elder?" Du Huanfeng was surprised. "Brother Mu must be extraordinary to get into Miss Lei's eyes… Ah, sorry. I haven't introduced myself yet, haven't I?"
Du Huanfeng closed the fan and said. "My name is Du Huanfeng from the Myriad Pill Palace. Would you like to have tea with me?"
Lei Feifei's body tensed up when she heard this. She, of course, knew Du Huanfeng's personality well. Don't look at his carefree attitude. In fact, he was highly ambitious deep down. The rumor said he had recruited a lot of experts throughout these years. His goal was naturally the top position of this world… She was afraid that Yun Lintian would accept Du Huanfeng's offer in the end.
It was as everyone expected. Yun Lintian didn't reject Du Huanfeng's invitation and went together with him.
"Leader…" Seeing this scene, Qin Wuji felt that he had to say something, but he was interrupted by Ji Zhiyin first.
"Hmph! How ungrateful he is! I wonder what would Snow Maiden Mu do if she knew this?" Ji Zhiyin said coldly.
"Snow Maiden Mu?" Lei Feifei repeated in puzzlement. How did it relate to Snow Maiden Mu?
