Chapter 47: Ning Xian and Lin Feng Sever Ties
"I'm all right."
"Simply take another pill..."
Jiang Chen's voice was feeble. After uttering those words, he employed his divine sense to access the storage bracelet.
Abruptly.
A pill tumbled out.
"Let me help you!"
Ning Xian observed Jiang Chen quivering as he attempted to grasp the pill, so she promptly collected it and administered it to Jiang Chen.
"No!!"
All of a sudden, a thunderous bellow reverberated throughout the entire Vast Spirit Residence!
"Who...?"
Jiang Chen swiveled his head with feigned difficulty.
"Lin Feng!"
Ning Xian gazed at the entrance in astonishment as she spotted Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, didn't I tell you to leave!" Qiu Liaoxi uttered weakly.
"You, you two..."
Lin Feng disregarded Qiu Liaoxi's statement and simply stared at Jiang Chen and Ning Xian with widened eyes. His voice quavered slightly.
"What's wrong with us?"
"Jiang Chen is gravely injured and can't move about. What's the issue with me giving him a medicinal pill?"
Ning Xian furrowed her brow. She discerned what Lin Feng was implying!
This fellow felt hurt because she had administered the pill to Jiang Chen!?
"Heh..."
"What's wrong?"
"I've already warned you before that Jiang Chen cannot be fully trusted..."
Lin Feng let out a bitter laugh, nearly clenching his teeth. "I didn't even realize how close you had become with him!"
"Lin Feng, that's enough!"
"I never expected you to be this kind of person!"
"When we were attacked, it was Jiang Chen who appeared in time and saved both my master and me!"
"If it hadn't been for him, it would have been uncertain whether my master and I could have even survived!"
"Where were you when we were attacked?!"
"And after Jiang Chen helped you get rid of the Zhou Clan, where did you go? Why didn't you come back even once?!"
"I'm simply giving Jiang Chen a medicinal pill now!"
"Furthermore, I have no connection to you whatsoever, so what gives you the right to become so emotional for no reason?!"
"Lin Feng, what do you have to say?!"
Ning Xian's beautiful face was filled with anger as she asked question after question.
She and her master had barely survived, and Jiang Chen nearly lost his life attempting to save them!
Yet, Lin Feng!
Instead of inquiring about their well-being or their condition, he burst in and began shouting in disbelief!
He even displayed a sneering, self-deprecating expression!
And he ground his teeth in anger!
How could Ning Xian not be furious at this?!
[Ding! You have successfully caused Ning Xian's impression of the protagonist Lin Feng to plummet to an all-time low! Lin Feng's Heavenly Fate Value has decreased by 200 points!]
[Ding! You have gained 300 Villain Value points!]
'Dropped to an all-time low?'
'So that means there's still a chance for Lin Feng to turn things around?'
Jiang Chen silently speculated in his heart, 'So, do I have to make Ning Xian's impression of Lin Feng fall to a negative level?'
Simultaneously.
"I!"
"I... I received the news and hurried over right away, but someone stopped me..."
Lin Feng was choked by Ning Xian's words, struggling to speak and feeling an agonizing pain within.
It took him a considerable amount of time before he managed to convey his helplessness and sorrow.
"Stopped by someone?"
Jiang Chen inquired weakly, "You dealt with the other party, right? Were you injured?"
Upon hearing these words,
Lin Feng's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Jiang Chen's concern revealed how petty Lin Feng had been.
But Lin Feng refused to acknowledge it!
A suffocating feeling of frustration, threatening to tear him apart, filled his chest, yet he found no outlet for it at all!
"He's asking you, are you mute?!"
Ning Xian was evidently still infuriated as she questioned indignantly.
In truth,
If it weren't for Lin Feng being a disciple of Qiu Liaoxi, she wouldn't even spare him a glance.
"I sustained a minor injury..."
Lin Feng's expression stiffened for a moment; he suppressed his heartache and replied, "I didn't kill the other party. He was a Mysterious Platform realm cultivator, and ultimately, he let me go."
"Mysterious Platform Realm?"
"If he pursued you, why did he let you go?"
Ning Xian shook her head with a smile, clearly unconvinced by his words.
"It's..."
"It's because... Those people didn't want to offend the Jiang Clan, so they struck an agreement with them to not meddle in each other's affairs."
"As for me, I was also their target... But due to my connection with Jiang Chen, they merely stopped me and didn't kill me."
Lin Feng explained in a subdued tone, evidently reluctant to do so.
With that said,
Everyone knew that he, Lin Feng, now owed Jiang Chen another enormous favor.
"So it was Jiang Chen who saved you again."
A flicker of understanding crossed Ning Xian's face before she sharply turned her head to look at Jiang Chen. "And... Jiang Chen, you have breached the agreement between the Jiang Clan and those people!"
"It's nothing."
"You guys are my friends."
"Many times, interests are not the most crucial factor."
Jiang Chen explained weakly, "Besides, those people approached with ill intentions; making a deal with them would be inviting disaster..."
"Jiang Chen... Thank you!"
Ning Xian interrupted Jiang Chen's words, her eyes glistening with a few crystal-clear droplets of light.
[Ding! Ning Xian's fondness for you has increased, while Lin Feng's Heavenly Fate Value has decreased by 100 points!]
[Ding! You have gained 200 points of Villain Value!]
Jiang Chen's heart surged with joy as the system prompt echoed within his mind.
Simultaneously.
Observing this spectacle.
Lin Feng felt as though he might rupture on the spot!
All at once.
"I comprehend now!"
A spark of insight abruptly ignited within his mind, causing his eyes to widen as he fixed his gaze intently on Jiang Chen.
Such an expression.
It immediately prompted Ning Xian to knit her brows, and Jiang Chen too furrowed his forehead.
"Lin Feng, what have you grasped?"
Qiu Liaoxi inquired with a touch of detachment. Truth be told, she also harbored some disappointment towards this disciple.
"All of this was orchestrated by Jiang Chen!"
"Your Jiang Clan struck a deal with those individuals, but you reneged on the agreement when they took action!"
"You merely sought my demise! You employed that Mysterious Platform realm cultivator's hands to eliminate me!"
"Consider this, if that Mysterious Platform cultivator discovered your breach of the agreement, he would undoubtedly target me!"
"Regrettably for you, your scheme failed. That individual didn't finish me off but merely retreated!"
Lin Feng directed a frigid stare at Jiang Che, "And your true objective is Ning Xian and my master!"
Upon uttering these words.
They appeared to hold merit.
"Hmph."
"Lin Feng, I genuinely didn't anticipate such malicious conjecture about my intentions."
"If I truly desired your death, I wouldn't have come to your aid when the Zhou Clan falsely accused you. Wouldn't it have been more advantageous for me to add fuel to the fire?"
Jiang Chen scoffed and shook his head, laden with disappointment.
Upon hearing Jiang Chen's words,
Ning Xian and Qiu Liaoxi could unmistakably perceive the malice and prejudice directed towards Jiang Chen.
"Lin Feng!"
"I never thought you could be so petty and narrow-minded that you would fabricate allegations against Jiang Chen after he saved your life!"
"I deeply regret consenting to let my master take you on as a disciple!"
"From this moment forward, I no longer know you. Leave!"
Ning Xian stared at Lin Feng in disbelief, gesturing towards the door as she shouted in fury.
[Ding! You have successfully caused Ning Xian and Lin Feng to sever ties. Lin Feng's Heavenly Fate Value has decreased by 200 points!]
[Ding! You have gained 300 points of Villain Value!]
The system prompt resounded.
Jiang Chen's heart swelled with delight.
Naturally, he maintained a facade of profound disappointment as he gazed at Lin Feng.
"Ning Xian!"
"I'm speaking the truth!"
"Jiang Chen has harbored malicious intentions from the very beginning!"
Lin Feng's lips quivered and his expression abruptly transformed into one of extreme ferocity. His outburst grew even more frantic.
"Enough!"
"I don't want to hear another word!"
Ning Xian uttered in a frosty tone, her gaze upon Lin Feng turning increasingly contemptuous.
