Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 1294 This place is no longer safe to live in.

Seeing Lin Feng's ever-changing expression, Chen Xiang couldn't sit still any longer and clapped her hands a few times.

In an instant, three men darted into the house from outside. Each of them was strong and agile.

The three men each carried ropes or wooden shackles.

They were planning to come in and take Lin Feng away after he was drugged.

Unexpectedly, the plan changed, and Lin Feng did not fall for the trick and faint.

Chenxiang got up and, taking advantage of Lin Feng turning his head to look at the men, retreated to the doorway and stood there, widening the distance between them.

"Lin San, I've given you a chance. If you don't speak up now, you'll suffer the consequences. Your body will be ruined."

Chenxiang still felt a pang of regret. A man who could make her feel physiologically attracted was a once-in-a-century find, and she had also developed too many feelings for him against her will.

She knew such thoughts were dangerous, but she just couldn't suppress them.

Lin Feng tapped his fingers on the table, his expression calm.

"I think it would be better if we sat down and talked. Why turn on each other and resort to violence?"

Chenxiang shook his head: "You're beyond saving. You should go to the government and talk to them."

Seeing Chenxiang wave his hand in signal, the three men immediately rushed forward, wielding their weapons, and pounced on Lin Feng.

Chen Xiang coldly watched Lin Feng, who remained seated motionless, a hint of regret in his eyes.

But the next moment, her eyes widened and her bright red mouth opened wide.

For some reason, the three burly men moved forward very quickly, but retreated even faster.

Moreover, after the three men took a few steps back, they almost simultaneously fell to the ground and stopped moving.

"Madam, may we sit down and talk?"

Lin Feng smiled, picked up the teacup on the table, and took another sip.

Chenxiang rolled her eyes, snapping out of her shock. She took light steps, slowly approached the table, and then gently sat down.

She was indeed clever; she knew that with Lin Feng's skills, she definitely couldn't escape, so she might as well obediently sit back down and have some room to maneuver.

"What is your master's name, and what position does he hold in the court?"

To verify the truthfulness of her subsequent answers, Lin Feng started by asking about what she already knew.

"My master is an imperial censor during the Great Zheng Dynasty, named Liu Mingzhen. Because he frequently impeaches important officials in the court, he has offended some big shots."

Chenxiang answered quickly and lied quite fluently, clearly someone who did this kind of thing often.

She felt that, given Lin Feng's role as a gofer, it was highly unlikely that he would know Lan Yu's identity.

When did you move into this house?

"Oh, about six months ago."

"Is she Liu Mingzhen's mistress?"

"Yes."

How did you two meet?

"At the Xuanhua Pavilion in the capital."

Lin Feng nodded: "Who lived in this house before you moved in?"

Chenxiang shook his head: "I don't know."

How often does your husband come over?

"The time is uncertain, generally three to five days, or longer."

After pondering for a moment, Lin Feng stood up.

"Although I know you're not telling the whole truth, I don't want to pursue it. I didn't come here because of you, and you should know that in your heart."

Chenxiang nodded quickly: "I know, but my master has a lot of power. You'd better stay away from the capital to avoid trouble, or tell me what you need and let my master help you. He's very easy to talk to."

Lin Feng laughed: "Chenxiang, I think it's your master who should be the one to avoid trouble. Even if he has immense power, he can't withstand a single blow from me."

Seeing that Chenxiang's eyes were darting around, he knew she was trying to come up with a solution.

Lin Feng leaned forward, bringing his face close to Chen Xiang's.

"Do you think your master would dare to stay here overnight if he knew about this?"

Upon hearing this, Chenxiang was stunned.

As a high-ranking official in the imperial court, Lan Yu wielded great power, but he was particularly afraid of his wife and even more afraid of being assassinated.

Once they know someone has found this place, they certainly won't come here to see her again, in order to save their lives or their reputations.

Having finally managed to snag such a high-ranking official position, only to lose favor, he would undoubtedly return to a life of fickleness and infidelity.

"Lin San, if you have any request, I will do everything in my power to help you, how about it?"

Lin Feng waved his hand: "Don't worry, I won't come again. Your master is not my target. I'm leaving."

After saying that, Lin Feng turned and walked out.

Chenxiang was naturally worried and got up to ask further questions.

"Lin San, who is your target? Perhaps I can help you."

Lin Feng stopped in his tracks and remained silent for a moment.

"That's true. With your master's power, he must be able to find out inside information."

After saying that, he turned around, leaned closer to Chenxiang again, and asked in a low voice.

"How about you have your master inquire where the Grand Preceptor of the Great Zheng Dynasty, Lan Yu, is staying?"

Upon hearing this, Chenxiang was stunned, her mouth agape, at a loss for words.

Lin Feng looked at her expression strangely.

"What, does your master not recognize Lan Yu?"

Chenxiang swallowed hard: "This...my master...definitely knows...him."

Lin Feng nodded vigorously: "That's perfect. You just need to tell me where Lan Yu is staying or his whereabouts. No matter how many guards he has, taking his head will be as easy as taking candy from a baby for me."

Chenxiang stared at Lin Feng in horror.

Lin Feng reached out and patted her shoulder, comforting her.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine. If you don't believe me, just watch..."

Before Lin Feng could finish speaking, he began to back away.

He raised one hand, extended two fingers, pointed to his own eyes, and then pointed to Chenxiang's eyes, indicating that she should see him clearly.

Then, he suddenly swayed his body.

Chenxiang's body trembled, and he blinked in surprise.

Then, something even more terrifying happened.

In broad daylight, the light was excellent, and the surrounding scenery was clearly illuminated.

Yet, under such bright light, Lin Feng, a perfectly healthy man, vanished right before her eyes.

Chenxiang trembled all over, strained to open his eyes, and scanned his surroundings.

He even bent down and looked under the table.

All I could see was the man lying on the floor, gently twisting his body as if trying to wake up.

Chenxiang recovered from his shock, sat blankly at the table, reached out and picked up a teacup, bringing it to his lips.

She was thinking to herself that she had to send a message to the master as soon as possible, that not only could the master no longer come here, but she also had to move away quickly.

This is a haunted house; no matter how much you like it, you can't live here.

At this moment, Lin Feng had returned to the Prime Minister's residence and was watching Qiao Jushan training the eight hundred guards at the training ground in the backyard.

He was very pleased with himself. After his intimidation, he was certain that Chenxiang would move away from Zhu Qisheng's house immediately, and Lanyu would never go near there again.

It will be much easier to do it yourself then.

The next step should be to consider who should be sent to escort the goods and retrieve Zhu Qisheng's treasure in batches.

Miao Yong approached Lin Feng, frowned as he looked at the eight hundred guards running in circles, and asked.

"Muchuan, why is it that this military training mostly involves standing in formation and listening to lectures, with very little actual combat training?"

Lin Feng sighed: "The Prime Minister has given too little time, so we can only strengthen the soldiers' execution ability through willpower. If we want to improve their physical fitness and combat skills, time does not allow it."
