Chapter 407: The Light-Fleeting Shadow Technique!
"You bold pervert!"
Aunt Lan struck out with a roar. The might of an expert in the Spiritual Element Realm was truly terrifying!
Ye Xingnan's eyes twitched with fear as he glared fiercely at Ling Feng. He couldn't comprehend how he had managed to be discovered by this wretched boy even though he had successfully evaded everyone else's detection and sneaked in.
Now, not only had he failed his mission, but he had also been targeted by a Spiritual Element Realm expert!
"Aunt Lan, you arrived just in time. Quickly, subdue this scoundrel!"
Ling Feng had exchanged a few blows with Ye Xingnan and found that, although his opponent's strength was mediocre, his evasion skills were extraordinary.
Every time Ling Feng's sword was about to strike, Ye Xingnan would dodge in seemingly impossible ways, almost like a boneless snake.
Aunt Lan's face was stern, and without needing Ling Feng to speak further, she launched ruthless attacks, each move aimed to kill.
If that little thief escaped, it would tarnish the young lady's reputation.
Ling Feng stepped back and moved to the bedside of Deng Yongshi, contemplating stealing the demonic shen crystal core amidst the chaos.
However, upon seeing Deng Yongshi's partially disheveled state, he quickly averted his gaze, adjusted her clothes, and then turned back to check.
He searched around Deng Yongshi's pillow and confirmed that she wasn't wearing any jewelry around her neck and sighed softly. It seemed that today he still wouldn’t be able to take the demonic shen crystal core.
At that moment, Deng Yongshi murmured in her sleep, laughingly cursing, "You wretched boy, watch me beat you to death, whip you, and kick you! Hahaha..."
As she spoke, she slapped her hand down hard towards Ling Feng's head.
Ling Feng quickly dodged as a black line formed on his forehead. This crazy woman still wants to hit me even while dreaming!
He snorted softly, took out a golden needle, and gently pricked Deng Yongshi's armpit at the extreme spring point. With a swift withdrawal of the needle, Deng Yongshi let out a painful yelp and finally woke up.
Although the drowsy incense would only cause deep sleep, as an incense, it still had some impact on the body and would make one feel lethargic and unfocused for days. How could he train her like this?
He needed to tame this wild girl to obtain the crystal core.
Deng Yongshi opened her eyes to see her room in chaos, with maids bustling around to clean up the mess. The sounds of fighting came from outside, and most infuriatingly, Ling Feng, tha detestable man, was in her room!
"You pervert!"
Deng Yongshi immediately assumed Ling Feng had snuck into her room while she was asleep. She jumped up from her bed in a rage and struck at him.
"You crazy woman, get the situation straight!"
Ling Feng frowned, easily grabbing her wrist and immobilizing her with a twist.
"Ah! You pervert, let go of me!" Deng Yongshi cried out in pain, tears streaming down her face. She glared fiercely at Ling Feng while seething with anger.
"Pervert?" Ling Feng snorted. "Who would be interested in a woman like you? If it weren't for me, you would have been violated by someone else by now!"
Ling Feng slammed Deng Yongshi out of the room and pointed to the sky, saying coldly, "Open your eyes and see clearly. Aunt Lan is fighting the real pervert!"
"I... you..."
Deng Yongshi's face flushed slightly. She gritted her teeth and said, "I-I understand. Now let go of me!"
"Hmph, you unreasonable woman!" Ling Feng released her wrist and stepped back several paces, feeling the need to keep his distance from this madwoman.
Deng Yongshi looked up at the sky, her anger flaring up again. She yelled, "You pervert! I will kill you!"
With that, she prepared to fly up and join the fight.
"I suggest you save yourself the trouble, Miss Deng," Ling Feng said with a roll of his eyes. "If you plan to join the fight, you might want to change your clothes first."
Deng Yongshi looked down and realized she was only wearing a thin nightgown...
Her face flushed bright red, and she quickly retreated to her room. She wanted to close the door, but it had been chopped down by a sword, increasing her hatred for the pervert to the extreme.
Actually, it was Ling Feng who had chopped down the door...
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In the air, Aunt Lan fiercely exchanged blows with Ye Xingnan, yet still couldn't subdue the little thief.
Her thoughts mirrored Ling Feng's; Ye Xingnan doesn't have many powerful attacks, but his ability to escape is extraordinary. No matter how she unleashed her skills, she couldn’t hit him.
Frustrated, Aunt Lan shouted, "Bold pervert, fight me honorably if you dare!"
"Ridiculous! Have you ever seen an honorable thief?" Ye Xingnan retorted with a smug grin, feeling no shame but rather pride.
Below, Ling Feng rubbed his nose. Although the words were shameless, they weren't exactly wrong.
"Smelly pervert, you seek death! Maids, form the Four-Extremes Sky-Locking Array!"
Aunt Lan waved her hand, and four maids formed a battle array, surrounding Ye Xingnan.
These seemingly delicate maids were actually hidden experts, which explained why General Deng felt safe leaving his granddaughter at the Orchid Pavilion alone.
Ye Xingnan cursed, "Moreover, I'm a master thief, not a flower thief! Don't blame me; blame your lady for being too enchanting!"
"You shameless cur!"
Aunt Lan furiously channeled her elemental qi, her palms striking out like tempestuous waves. After several failed attempts at capturing Ye Xingnan alive, Aunt Lan abandoned the idea of taking him alive and used her killing moves.
"You crazy woman, I'm outta here!"
Ye Xingnan deftly avoided Aunt Lan's deadly strikes using his incredible flexibility and then blended into the shadows, disappearing from even Aunt Lan's perception.
"Damn it, that's the Light-Fleeting Shadow Technique!" Aunt Lan's eyes widened with realization. Could it be The Shadow organization?
Her heart sank as she comprehended the gravity of the situation.
If the Shadow Organization was involved, this was far from a simple matter of petty thief.
"Aunt Lan, to the left!"
As Aunt Lan hesitated, Ling Feng leaped into the air, pursuing in the direction that Ye Xingnan had vanished.
Among everyone present, only Ling Feng could use his Boundless Vision to partially track Ye Xingnan's movements.
Though Aunt Lan didn't know how Ling Feng managed to counter the Light-Fleeting Shadow Technique, she unhesitatingly followed his lead and chased after him.
