Chapter 1355 - 1359: Cultivation Advancement

However, Zhu Xiuyue was an ordinary person, and her reaction was obviously too late for this reminder.

Before Zhu Xiuyue could speak, the tip of Zhang Tie’s knife was already approaching Lin Feng’s back...

The blade was chilling, and even before contact, the cold aura made Lin Feng’s back feel a chill. Lin Feng knew that if he couldn’t dodge this strike, even with Inner Strength protecting him, he would likely be seriously injured; this was the outcome Zhang Tie had calculated.

Zhang Tie was quite confident, believing Lin Feng absolutely couldn’t dodge his strike. Unfortunately, Lin Feng’s performance disappointed Zhang Tie.

"Shift Shape and Shadow!"

Lin Feng used his Shift Shape and Shadow movement technique once again, disappearing in the air and reappearing three meters away, then turning swiftly to grab the long knife flying by his side!

Zhang Tie froze for a moment, he really couldn’t believe Lin Feng could continuously use such advanced movement techniques like Shift Shape and Shadow!

"Hehe, the last two moves were pretty good, keep going, I’ll give you a chance!" Lin Feng looked at Zhang Tie with a smile and, very casually, threw the long knife back to him.

Zhang Tie instinctively caught the knife, looking at Lin Feng with some surprise. He couldn’t understand why Lin Feng, who had clearly gained the upper hand after snatching the knife, would still give him a chance to strike... Could it be out of consideration for him being a brother from the Hong Sect and not wanting him to lose too badly?!

Thinking this way, Zhang Tie actually felt a bit grateful to Lin Feng...

If Lin Feng, who was keen on stealing the Off-hand Knife Technique, knew what Zhang Tie was thinking now, he would probably applaud his generosity!

In the next minute, with Lin Feng deliberately holding back, Zhang Tie was able to freely exhibit his Off-hand Knife Technique, and Lin Feng carefully noted every move in both his mind and vision.

Once Lin Feng confirmed that Zhang Tie had fully demonstrated the essence of the Off-hand Knife Technique, he moved like a phantom, suddenly appearing behind Zhang Tie, and lightly tapped a finger on Zhang Tie’s neck...

Puff!

After the sound of a gentle thud, Zhang Tie’s body stiffened, completely immobilized, and the long knife in his hand fell onto the soft arena...

"You lost!" Lin Feng said in an extremely calm, almost indifferent tone.

Zhang Tie’s expression was dazed, his gaze vacant as he stared straight ahead, seeming not to hear Lin Feng speak...

"Boss! Are you okay?!" Cai Quan noticed Zhang Tie’s abnormal state, rushed to the arena in a panic, and nervously supported Zhang Tie. When he realized Zhang Tie was totally unresponsive, as if he’d lost consciousness, he instinctively turned around, glared at Lin Feng, and asked in a deep voice, "Lin Feng, what did you do to our boss?!"

"Oh..." Faced with Cai Quan’s questioning, Lin Feng merely lifted his eyes slightly and explained in a relaxed tone, "He’s fine, I just sealed the meridians throughout his body, he can still hear you talking now... No big deal, he’ll be fine lying down for half a month!"

Martial artists have their tempers, even though Lin Feng’s temperament greatly improved after advancing to Innate, unlike his previous petty behavior, Zhang Tie and his group’s provocation ultimately annoyed him, especially seeing Xie Nan wronged, he naturally felt quite hostile towards Zhang Tie and his friends!

Originally, Lin Feng intended to use ruthless methods to severely punish Zhang Tie and teach him a profound lesson, but he inadvertently learned Zhang Tie’s Off-hand Knife Technique just now, so it was naturally a bit awkward to act harshly...

Upon hearing Lin Feng say Zhang Tie needed to lie down for half a month, a particularly venomous expression flashed across Cai Quan’s face. But with both Liang Qiu and Zhang Tie already injured by Lin Feng, he knew that with his own abilities, he couldn’t retaliate, so he had to temporarily endure it and think about getting Liang Qiu and Zhang Tie back first!

"Lin Feng, to be this harsh toward fellow sect brothers, Mr. Bai will definitely remember your actions! I hope you won’t regret what you’ve done when you meet Mr. Bai!" Cai Quan stared at Lin Feng, trying his best to control his agitated emotions as he spoke.

"No need to trouble yourself with that!" Lin Feng sneered faintly, calmly replying to Cai Quan, not considering his actions too harsh nor worrying about explaining himself to Bai Yuanshan! If these three men were sent by Bai Yuanshan to test his strength, Lin Feng might have shown Bai Yuanshan some courtesy, but Lin Feng was very sure that Bai Yuanshan wouldn’t do such a thing, so he wasn’t at all anxious.

Lin Feng picked up the Cold Blade long knife Zhang Tie dropped on the arena, handed it to Zhu Xiuyue, and casually instructed, "Xiuyue, if you have time tomorrow, put a sheath on this knife and hang it in my office... It’s a good knife, be careful not to let it get stolen."

Cai Quan glared at Lin Feng resentfully and eventually said nothing more. He made a phone call, asking one of his brothers to drive over to Longfeng Martial Hall to pick them up, and then led Liang Qiu and Zhang Tie away in defeat.

As Cai Quan and the others made their hasty escape from Longfeng Martial Hall, Lin Feng was already chatting in the VIP suite of the Martial Hall with Zhu Xiuyue and Xie Nan.

"Brother Feng, your stance on the stage just now was so cool... almost blinded me!" Xie Nan lounged lazily on the sofa, drinking beer while genuinely praising Lin Feng.

"I didn’t know your eyes were so fragile..." Lin Feng glanced at Xie Nan, saying with a chuckle.

"Boss, you didn’t know? I’ve always been quite weak..." Xie Nan also smiled, pretending to be pitiful as he spoke.

"Bah... Stop pretending to be weak, disgusting!" Lin Feng laughed and scolded Xie Nan, then asked, "Before I arrived, you weren’t hurt by those guys, were you?!"

However, after laughing, Lin Feng also felt that Xie Nan’s strength needed a boost, considering Xie Nan was currently only at the second level of Inner Strength cultivation. If the task wasn’t significant, Xie Nan’s skill could count him as an expert, but since he is now an important leader at Longfeng Martial Hall, a second level Inner Strength cultivation seems rather inadequate...

"Brother Feng, you’re looking down on me!" Xie Nan glared at Lin Feng resentfully upon hearing his question, and said calmly, "Though I’m not that guy’s opponent, it’s not that easy for that kid to harm me either!"

"Good that you weren’t injured!" Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, then patted Xie Nan’s shoulder and continued, "But things can’t go on like this, your strength needs to be improved!"

"How to improve?" Xie Nan looked curiously at Lin Feng, complaining, "Brother Feng, you know me, I never slack off in practicing martial arts. The moves are easy enough, but Inner Strength is really hard to improve quickly!"

"You cannot quickly improve, but I have a way to help you!" Lin Feng said to Xie Nan with a smile, "Prepare yourself in the next few days, and when I’m free, I’ll help boost your cultivation!"
