Night King: My Life Journey
Ch-398's chat. My life is in your hands
After traveling a long distance, Lin Feng finally reached the Eastern continent. And at this moment, Lin Feng was already at the city gate of Xuanshi, yet Lin Feng did not directly enter the city, but instead paced in front of the city gate, with a face that looked nervous. The gate guards were confused by Lin Feng's strange behavior, and one of them ventured to approach him.
"Young gentlemen, has something happened to you?" the soldier asked very carefully, so as not to offend Lin Feng.
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking of a way to deal with my mother's anger" replied Lin Feng, without turning his eyes to the soldier.
The gate guard warrior who was approaching Lin Feng looked extremely shocked and also confused, he could not even believe what Lin Feng had just said. All this time, the people of the Eastern continent had already known what sort of cruelty Lin Feng was, especially the city of Xuanshi, even a criminal would instantly shudder when he heard his name mentioned, but who would have thought, that would be, this very cruel and feared person was actually very afraid of the anger of his mother.
"I just found out that the god of death was afraid to face his mother's anger" the soldier said in his heart, then returned to his original position.
After thinking for almost half an hour, Lin Feng finally gave up and preferred to surrender to receiving his mother's anger, after all he had a special reason to attack the Tang imperial capital. If not for the Tang emperor insulting his family, perhaps Lin Feng would never have been willing to come to the imperial capital of Tang, because he had no reason to come there, he said, unless there's something he has to do there.
The Lin family residence.
Lin Feng was seen standing in front of the door of the main residence of the Lin family, he was really very nervous at the thought of what his mother's anger would be like. After quite a while standing in front of the door, Lin Feng then let out a long sigh, then opened the door in front of him and directly stepped in after the door opened, yet had just taken a few steps into the main residence, he stopped because his mother was standing right in front of him.
"I-mom, I'm home" said Lin Feng.
"What did you ever tell you before? Are you not going to obey your mother anymore?" asked Lin Hua.
"Bu-not like that, ma'am. I just couldn't accept it when our family was insulted, let alone the Tang emperor having wanted to kill mother, so I was thinking of avenging her, but..."
"But you got carried away and instead destroyed one imperial capital, isn't that what you wanted to say?" said Lin Hua.
"..." - ".Lin Feng didn't answer Lin Hua's words, instead he immediately knelt before his mother.
"What are you doing? Do you want to apologize in this way so that I don't punish you?" asked Lin Hua.
"No ma'am, I won't apologize. I kneeled down because I was ready to receive punishment from mother" replied Lin Feng.
Instead of directly punishing Lin Feng for his actions, Lin Hua was actually very impressed by his son's actions, because not a single bit Lin Feng showed a defensive attitude towards himself, instead, but only resigned because he realized if he was wrong. But of course, it was only done to his mother, if not his mother, it would have ended in bloodshed.
Looking at his son's attitude like that, Lin Hua who originally wanted to punish Lin Feng, instantly undo his intentions, he even rubbed Lin Feng's hair gently while smiling at him. "Mother doesn't blame you for you having destroyed the imperial capital of Tang, I'm just worried that nothing will happen to you, if you're not around, then mother..."
"No mother, my life is only in your hands, if you want me dead then I will die by ending my own life. And if mother doesn't want me to die, then no one can take my life" Lin Feng said cutting Lin Hua's words.
Lin Hua smiled, then pulled Lin Feng to his feet, then hugged him very tightly. "If what you say is true, then I don't want you to die, because only you still make me want to survive in this cruel world" said Lin Hua.
Others would probably think that the words spoken by Lin Feng were mere nonsense, or that he was just to comfort his mother, but not Lin Feng, what he said to his mother, then that was what would happen, had Lin Hua wanted his life right then and there, then Lin Feng would have instantly ended his own life.
Lin Hua was indeed not her biological mother, but ever since her soul occupied Lin Feng's body, she had finally decided to consider Lin Hua as her mother as well, originally it was only as a sign of gratitude because he had occupied the body of Lin Hua's child, but as time went on, the affection given by Lin Hua to him, managed to make him feel like he had family again, and so on, even Lin Hua's affection managed to make her think of Lin Hua as her own mother.
"Although that's the case, mother will still punish you" said Lin Hua, then let go of her embrace.
"Please, Mom. I will receive any punishment from mother" replied Lin Feng.
"Good, then you should pick up Luo Ning and bring her back, so that you can get married as soon as possible" Lin Hua said.
"But..."
"But what?" said Lin Hua.
Lin Feng let out a long breath. "Good, Mom. I'll take this punishment" he said, then the two of them went to the dining room.
Arriving at the dining room, Lin Jianheeng and his two sons looked delighted when they saw that Lin Feng had returned, yet they said nothing, because they knew that Lin Hua was angry. Although Lin Jianheeng was Lin Hua's father and Lin Feng's two uncles were his brothers, but when Lin Hua was angry, none of them dared to refute him, otherwise, they will also get their sap.
In the end, the five of them ate together in a silent atmosphere, because no one spoke.
***
In the evening, Lin Feng sat meditating inside his room to calm his mind, as he really could not calm down after Lin Hua asked him to pick Luo Ning up. If Luo Ning was somewhere on the blue continent, then Lin Hua's request wasn't a problem for him, maybe even he would have directly picked her up right then and there, but the problem was, the problem was, Luo Ning was on the holy land and in order to go there, Lin Feng had to reach the Supreme Emperor realm first, which naturally would not be easy.
While meditating, Lin Feng's consciousness went into his own soul space to meet Huise. "Huise, don't you have a way for me to get to the sacred land before reaching the Supreme Emperor realm?" asked Lin Feng.
"Actually the power of the master who is now is enough to go to the holy land, because the power of the master is indeed already equivalent to the power of a Supreme Emperor, but the problem is that the master's cultivation foundation has still not reached the realm of a Supreme Emperor. If you insist on going to the holy land, it is likely that you will have difficulties while you are there, not to mention the unresolved issue of Yama" Huise replied.
"You're right, after all I'm going to the holy land after defeating Yama. But I don't understand the difficulty of what you said earlier" said Lin Feng.
"The difficulty I am referring to is that the natural energy on the sacred land is completely different from the energy that exists on all the landmasses of this world, since the energy in the holy land was much denser and larger than the landmass in this world, if the master did not have a strong cultivation foundation, then the master could be injured during his time there" answer Huise.
"It turns out that way" Lin Feng muttered softly, "alright, then I will strive to reach the Supreme Emperor realm as soon as possible" he said.
