Chapter 149: Showdown (4)
Suddenly, Feng Qinghan's mouth curled up in a very playful arc, as if he had thought of something? The man in white behind him only saw the shallow arc on Feng Qinghan's side and was horrified.
"...Interesting. If I had known she wouldn't give up so easily, even if she was struggling to death, it might not be as boring as I imagined." Feng Qinghan chuckled while shaking his fan.
The man in white didn't understand what was going on, and still maintained the posture of kneeling on one knee, waiting for Feng Qinghan to give orders.
"What's the situation on King Zhao's side?" Feng Qinghan suddenly asked.
"Prince Zhao and his entourage have already split up. Prince Zhao is acting together with three of his subordinates. The man named Wang Ye that the young master mentioned is acting alone. The others have all been separated and acted separately." The man in white did not dare to be negligent and answered in an orderly manner.
Feng Qinghan was a little surprised after hearing the answer. He turned his head slightly and said: "Oh? Wang Ye acted alone? At this time?"
"Yes." The man in white replied.
Feng Qinghan was still somewhat puzzled. He turned back to look at the entire valley, but could not see clearly where everyone was moving. He was curious about why Wang Ye separated from Zhao Ziheng at this time, but from another perspective, this move was not surprising. But what was Wang Ye's purpose? Given Zhao Ziheng's current physical condition, could he leave him?
"What did Wang Ye do after they separated?" Feng Qinghan asked.
"I'm really sorry, Wang Ye disappeared from our sight the moment we separated." When saying this, the man in white was obviously a little bit unbelievable, as if he still hasn't figured out the situation.
On the contrary, Feng Qinghan showed an understanding expression after receiving the news. He had never fought with Wang Ye, but he was very clear that Wang Ye's strength should not be underestimated. Even though he had known it for a long time, he was still a little surprised when he learned that Wang Ye could easily get rid of Bai Lang's surveillance. He thought that he had underestimated him too much.
"Where is the special visitor now?" Feng Qinghan asked again.
"The guest room at the northwest end." The man in white answered immediately, not daring to be negligent in the slightest, and his attitude was respectful but neither humble nor arrogant.
"What is the current situation?"
"It has gradually fallen into the hands of King Zhao and his people."
The man in white gave a very clever answer, at least Feng Qinghan was quite satisfied. After all, although the people who attacked this time had the same goal, they were different people. The man in white's answer was general and not obvious, and it could be said to be the answer Feng Qinghan wanted to hear the most.
After thinking for a moment, Feng Qinghan asked: "How is Prince Jing, who attacked first?"
Feng Qinghan still remembered that Zhou Yan had helped Huan Ling escape, so that he felt uneasy as a vanguard. He also did not forget that Huan Ling still had something in his hand that threatened Zhou Yan, although he did not know exactly what it was and only knew a rough idea at best.
"Controlling the situation like everyone else," the man in white replied.
Does that mean Zhou Yan's behavior is normal? But why does Feng Qinghan think it's not that simple? Looking back and taking in the environment in the valley again, Feng Qinghan said: "Have you mastered the terrain of the valley?"
“I’ve basically mastered it.”
"Generally?" Feng Qinghan repeated with a little doubt. It was obvious that this answer did not satisfy him. He was not doubting Bai Lang's ability, but was concerned about why the obviously disadvantaged Phantom Spirit did not do anything? Moreover, even Bai Lang could not figure out the terrain of the valley, so there must be some mystery hidden in it. Feng Qinghan did not deny that the scenery , like a paradise on earth. Although it was beautiful, it could not be said to be unique. On the contrary, it was just ordinary to him. What could be so special about such a square place?
After being repeated by Feng Qinghan, the man in white further explained: "It should be said that the terrain in some places is very strange."
"Strange?" Feng Qinghan repeated it again, but this time he stopped what he was doing, because the answer from the man in white made him realize something.
"Yes, I can't tell where. Although I know there are various defensive formations such as the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams to protect and obstruct, it is unexpectedly easy to break." The tone of the man in white seemed a little puzzled, as if he still hadn't gotten over the strange feeling.
This time Feng Qinghan was slightly stunned. He never thought that the Phantom Spirit would make a meaningless dying struggle. Even though in his opinion any behavior of the Phantom Spirit was a dying struggle, but based on his understanding of the Phantom Spirit, the Phantom Spirit would never do such a thing. As the man in white said, Feng Qinghan could basically understand it as delaying time. But was it really just that?
Slowly, Feng Qinghan began to recall the beginning, thinking about whether he had overlooked something. He was not worried about whether he would pay a heavy price for this neglect. What he cared about was whether this neglect would implicate Yin Yin. Yes, he did not forget that Yin Yin was still in Huanling's hands. He had never been so scared as he was now, afraid that he would be careless and lead to irreversible consequences. Even if Yin Yin would not belong to him in the end, as long as she was safe, Feng Qinghan would be willing to exchange his life; for Feng Qinghan, even if it was the price of both of them dying, he would not hesitate to exchange for Yin Yin's safety once. At this time, what he was worried about was whether Huanling saw through his mind and tried to do something to Yin Yin. This idea made him feel very uneasy. After all, when he saw Yin Yin being tortured by Huanling in [Rucheng], he was really very angry.
At this moment, Feng Qinghan suddenly missed his former self, who was not moved by anything and did not care about anyone. But at this moment, he deeply realized that when you really care about someone, you really can't help it and cannot ignore anything about that person. However, Feng Qinghan did not regret the result of all this. Life is short, and it is better to have had it than never to have tried it. Even if it is the end of life, at least you must leave a trace of your real existence.
