Chapter 123 The Bloody Feast Begins
The white fog permeating the air was gradually becoming less and less.
Countless ghost insects surrounded Shen Feng, and after the white fog in the air was completely absorbed back by the ghost insects,
Shen Feng had a thought.
The ghost insects rapidly flew into the nest in his palm.
The ghost insect nest, the size of a bead, was very convenient to carry. Shen Feng casually placed it in his pocket and suddenly furrowed his brows. Just now, inside the One-Star Spirit Mine, all his attention was on the ghost insects.
Now that he had emerged from the Spirit Mine, he noticed that everything around him was too quiet. The sounds of construction from the estate were gone. Could something have happened?
As he was about to head toward the construction site, a figure was running rapidly in this direction.
"Bene... Benefactor, Brother Wang and the others, they've all been taken away," said Wang Daniu, out of breath as he approached.
With his familiarity with the geography of Nine Dragons Mountain, he safely made it to the eastern side of Nine Dragons Mountain using only a Life-saving Jade Amulet. Luckily for him, the white fog had been absorbed by the ghost insects, or he would've been in trouble.
Shen Feng placed his palm on Wang Daniu's forehead and said, "Relax your body, and don't resist at all."
Wang Daniu didn't know what Shen Feng intended to do, but he had to obey whatever the Benefactor said.
Shen Feng was going to read Wang Daniu's memories, which would allow him to understand the entire sequence of events in the quickest way possible.
Although he had the means to read memories, with his current level of cultivation, he needed the other party's cooperation; otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to accurately retrieve the necessary memories.
After successfully accessing the memories in Wang Daniu's mind, Shen Feng's expression instantly turned icy cold. He had only refrained from dealing with the big families in Wuzhou temporarily at the request of Wang Anxiong and Fatty Qian.
But it seemed these big families were too eager to court death, unwilling to wait for Wang Anxiong and Fatty Qian to rise to power.
"Now, let's see where can you run off to? And you, a charlatan, are here too? Seems like my luck is quite good today," said the flat-nosed man who had chased them here, flanked by two black-clad men with guns. They had all seen Shen Feng's picture before.
Shen Feng was not interested in wasting time with these minor characters. He said, "Daniu, let's go!"
Wang Daniu nodded vigorously, following Shen Feng closely.
The flat-nosed man and his companions had already witnessed the strangeness on Wang Daniu, but they didn't understand what was going on.
However, if Wang Daniu was truly capable, then why would he be running away? He must be afraid of them!
The flat-nosed man aimed his gun at Shen Feng's arm and smirked, "You brat, not even fully grown, and you're pretending to be some kind of Immortal? If I didn't need you alive for someone, I would blow your brains out right now."
The two black-clad men aimed their guns at Shen Feng's legs.
"As long as we keep the kid alive, that's all that matters. Whether he ends up crippled or not, no one specifically instructed us to care about that."
"Look at that arrogant face of his. He really thinks he's someone divine," they mocked.
In the midst of their conversation,
The two black-clad men tried to shoot Shen Feng's legs, but before they could pull the triggers,
"Bang! Bang!" Two sounds.
It was not the sound of gunfire, but the inexplicable bursting of their heads, splattering blood and brain matter all over the face of the flat-nosed man.
The smile on the flat-nosed man's face instantly froze. His brothers had been shot in the head without reason—who was behind this? With only Shen Feng and Wang Daniu present, could this young man really have supernatural abilities?
His gun hand trembled as he stared at Shen Feng, now not caring about keeping him alive.
But before he could shoot, countless ghost insects flew towards him.
Whizzing sounds filled the air, and only a bone skeleton was left on the ground.
Ghost insects liked fresh hearts, but they also enjoyed devouring flesh.
Shen Feng's expression remained unchanged as the ghost insects that had feasted on the flesh returned to the nest in his pocket.
While Wang Daniu felt a great sense of satisfaction, he also swallowed nervously. What kind of person was his Benefactor really?
He had just experienced the power of the Life-saving Jade Amulet, and now this scene was wildly stimulating his senses.
A gunshot rang out with a "Bang!" from the west.
"Daniu, I'm taking off first." Shen Feng dashed toward the west side of Nine Dragons Mountain.
In the west of Nine Dragons Mountain.
Cai Zhi and Cai Heguang lay on the ground, surrounded by three men in black, their faces pallid.
Especially Cai Zhi, his stomach, shoulders, and back were all riddled with bullets.
Cai Heguang was somewhat better off, having been shot only in the right leg.
Both of them were unfamiliar with the terrain of Nine Dragons Mountain and had been unable to shake off the three men in black who pursued them.
With a look of despair, Cai Heguang's lips turned white as he said, "Uncle, I never imagined we would die together."
Cai Zhi's face showed no regret. If it weren't for Shen Feng, he would have long since been dead. He said, "Heguang, today you really acted like a man. The master will avenge us."
The corners of the men in black's mouths curled with disdain as they pointed their guns at Cai Zhi and Cai Heguang and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The moment the bullets flew out, Cai Zhi and Cai Heguang involuntarily closed their eyes.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds passed.
They didn't feel the expected pain, and when they opened their eyes in confusion, they saw the three men in black lying on the ground, each with a bullet through their foreheads.
Seeing Shen Feng approaching from not far away, Cai Zhi was overcome with excitement and shouted, "Master!"
He knew it was the master who must have saved them again.
Cai Heguang was filled with doubt, having not witnessed Shen Feng's capabilities and because he had his eyes closed during the incident.
After Shen Feng approached, he placed his palm on Cai Zhi's body and said, "Don't talk for now."
The bullets inside Cai Zhi's body soon emerged on their own, and his wounds began to heal at a visibly fast pace, leaving Cai Heguang standing nearby in shock. He was beginning to understand why his uncle called Shen Feng the master!
After treating Cai Zhi's injuries, Shen Feng also gave Cai Heguang some basic treatment.
Cai Zhi immediately pulled Cai Heguang to kowtow in thanks to Shen Feng.
Shen Feng's voice was indifferent, tinged with an undercurrent of chill, he muttered to himself, "Wuzhou's major families want to play? This time, I'll play with them properly!"
A smile, filled with cold intent, emerged at the corner of Shen Feng's mouth.
Cai Zhi realized that the master was somewhat angry, knowing it wasn't the time for thanks. He pulled Cai Heguang to follow Shen Feng down Nine Dragons Mountain.
Shen Feng didn't hide or sneak; he walked down from Nine Dragons Mountain openly.
The remaining men in black, who were left to watch the construction workers, sensed trouble upon seeing Shen Feng and the others and aimed their guns at them.
Seeing their guns no longer pointing at them, the spirits of the construction workers were reignited, and one of them finally mustered the courage to run outside Nine Dragons Village.
With one person leading, the rest of the construction workers scattered like birds and beasts.
The remaining men in black couldn't be bothered with the workers. To them, Shen Feng and his company were more important, so they allowed the workers to run toward the outside of Nine Dragons Village.
Shen Feng had no interest in dealing with these men in black personally.
With a casual wave of his hand.
A swarm of Ghost Insects flew at the men in black.
The men in black immediately looked terrified and pulled their triggers without hesitation, but it was in vain. The Ghost Insects gathered together, forming an impenetrable wall.
They could easily pierce through ten meters of steel plate; ordinary bullets were useless against them.
As the mass of Ghost Insects passed over, ten skeletal frames instantly appeared on the ground.
