Chapter 123: What if I had another chance?

  Feng Lie's appearance brought a great deal of worry to Qin Zheng.

  It's not that Feng Lie himself is particularly formidable, but rather that behind him stands the Phoenix Blood Royal Clan, one of the Eight Great Demon King Clans. If they were to intervene, it's likely that even a casual sweep within the clan would yield dozens of Soul Martial Realm experts, rendering any resistance utterly futile.

  Qin Zheng met Feng Lie in the living room.

  Phoenix Liet is still the same as half a year ago, with an elegant and extraordinary demeanor, exuding an aura that symbolizes his status. The phoenix wings on his body are not hidden, shining brightly and openly, which also serves as a deterrent to some petty individuals, and at the same time, boosts his own confidence.

  "It's been half a year since we last met, and Brother Qin has truly given this prince a new look. Feng Lie sat comfortably back in his chair, sitting across from Qin Zheng."

  "It's just luck." Qin Zheng smiled calmly.

  "This is not a fluke. I ask you, among the masters gathered in Ziyang Town today, who dares to say that they can single-handedly destroy the Four Families Alliance without taking more than three moves?" Feng Lie raised his thumb at Qin Zheng, "Brother Qin is one of them. Although this prince has always looked down on others, and had even scorned the invitation from the Sea Emperor's son to visit him in the sea domain, and the Demon Emperor's son wanting to duel with you five years later, I still thought that your ability to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat was just a coincidence. Now, you have earned my respect."

  Qin Zheng lightly smiled and said: "Brother Feng wouldn't be here to flatter me, would he?"

  Feng Lie laughed, "Is this true? On my way here, all I've been hearing is about Brother Qin. It seems like the entire town of Ziyang can't talk about anything else except Brother Qin, and nothing else sparks their interest. I'm just speaking from my heart." He paused slightly, sat up straight, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes. "I have two ideas, and I hope Brother Qin will cooperate."

  "Oh? What's the idea." Qin Zheng knew that they were getting close to the crucial place and he also became more spirited.

  "First, abandon the protection of the Three Realms Linglong Beast; second, hand over that demonic energy sword to me. If you can agree, I not only guarantee your safe departure from this place, but also send you to the sacred land of my Phoenix Blood Clan for a year of cultivation. What do you say?" Feng Lie said, revealing his intentions.

  If previously, Qin policy still hoped that Feng Lie would not intervene in the matter of San Shi Ling Long beast, then now it has completely abandoned this hope.

  He didn't have the same worries as before, but instead was very calm.

  Since Feng Lie also wants to intervene, then come on.

  And Qin Zheng also heard a little meaning, that is, Feng Lie didn't have the full confidence to become the final winner of the three generations of Linglong beast, which means that Feng Lie didn't ask the people of Feng Xue Wang tribe to take action.

  "Before I answer, may I ask Phoenix Brother to answer a question of mine first?" Qin Zheng said calmly.

  "Alright." Feng Lie crossed his arms over his chest, and naturally exuded the pride and confidence unique to those of the Yao Wang race.

  Qin Zhengdao said: "May I ask Brother Feng, what is it about the Three Lives Linglong Beast that can attract you?"

  Feng Lie smiled, "There are some things, Brother Qin is better off not knowing."

  As soon as he spoke these words, a flame of anger was about to erupt in Qin Zheng's body.

  Want you to do it, but don't tell you the reason.

  What's the difference between this and when the three emperors wanted to kill him without giving a reason?

  "Not even mentioning this, I can only guess that the Three Realms Linglong Beast must have something particularly attractive to Brother Feng." Qin Zheng suppressed his anger and said calmly, "Logically speaking, since it attracts you, with your identity, it's easy to find a few super Soul Martial Realm experts, why bother so much?"

  Feng Lie's expression remained calm and serene as he listened, without interrupting.

  Qin Zheng continued, "In that case, it makes me think of something." He leaned forward slightly, applying a bit of pressure, his eyes fixed intently on Feng Lie as he said slowly, "Brother Feng must have discovered that the Three Lives Linglong Beast has parts that can greatly help your Feng Wing Martial Pulse. But you don't want others to know because you're worried that if they find out, they'll come to stop you and you won't have a chance. So you came alone."

  "Your imagination is quite good." Feng Lie didn't back down at all as he stared straight at Qin Zheng, "However, what you said isn't entirely correct."

  "Generally speaking, it must be right. Otherwise, you can casually grab a dozen or so high-ranking Soul Martial Realm experts to come, and the high-ranking experts from the three major forces are not worth mentioning at all. I don't know what specific reason, but you must have no helpers, and you rely solely on yourself." Qin Zheng said with a loud and clear voice.

  Facing Qin's overbearing and intimidating aura, Feng Lie remained completely unmoved.

  He leaned back in his chair with a confident smile on his handsome face, "I can do everything I want to do by myself."

  Qin's tightly wound heart relaxed slightly.

  Without the massive power backing him, Feng Lie's threat was reduced by 99%, and his words alone were still a great threat, but at least not to the point of being unstoppable. Of course, with the addition of the three major forces and Mo Wu Shuang, a powerful master, the situation became even more severe.

  "Feng brother is very confident." Qin Zheng also sat back down.

  "Even this can't be done, what qualifications do I have to compete for the Phoenix Blood Throne." Feng Lie didn't put his competitor, including Qin Zheng's side, in his eyes at all. "Alright, let's not drag this on," he stood up and said, "I'll just ask Brother Qin one question, my two proposals, do you agree or not?"

  Qin Zhengdao said: "I disagree."

  Feng Lie's voice was soft and gentle: "I still have high hopes for Qin brother's future, and I look forward to seeing Qin brother fight against the Demon Emperor's son in the future. However, if you don't agree, then perhaps you won't have that opportunity."

  "Feng is threatening me." Qin Zheng said in a deep voice.

  "Threat? No, no, you're wrong." Feng Lie stretched out his hand and gently shook it twice, "I'm just narrating a fact that's about to happen."

  "So you're saying that if I stay, Brother Feng will personally come to kill me?" Qin Zheng's eyes shot out a fierce glare.

  "That still requires Brother Qin to hold on till the end, I will take action personally." Feng Lie completely ignored Qin Zheng's sharp gaze, "So please consider carefully, Brother Qin, don't go seeking death voluntarily."

  Qin Zheng retracted his sharp edges, and the whole person became a bit lazy, stretching his waist, "In order to have a final showdown with Feng brother, I also can't leave."

  Feng Lie shook his head and sighed: "I thought I could persuade you to leave."

  "Brother Feng, don't use this tone to show off in front of people, are you really here to persuade me to leave? I think you're after my demonic energy sword. You want to snatch it away." Qin Zheng was already infuriated by Feng Lie's attitude, and had been suppressing his anger. Seeing Feng Lie still putting on a pretentious friendly face, he coldly said.

  "Now that it's been said, I might as well be straightforward. I've indeed taken a liking to the Demon Energy Divine Soldier. Originally, I was even thinking of giving you some benefits in exchange for it. But since you want to stay and seek death on your own accord, then there's no need to waste anything else. In a few days, I'll take it myself." Feng Lie said.

  "Get it yourself? Do you think I'm just a decoration?" Qin Zheng said in a deep voice.

  Feng Lie smiled, "In my eyes, you are indeed just a decoration." As soon as he finished speaking, the phoenix wings behind him suddenly spread out, flames soaring, and the temperature in the living room suddenly rose. The next moment, a shocking scene occurred.

  The tables and chairs between Qin Zheng and Feng Lie suddenly vaporized on their own, reaching an extremely high temperature, with a burning speed that was too fast to be seen by the naked eye.

  Immediately following a loud rumble, the living room also collapsed with a loud crash, and the flames danced wildly before turning into flying ash.

  "Qin brother, you'd better think carefully." Feng Lie's provocative smile, his back Phoenix wings lightly flapping, immediately soared into the sky.

  Qin Zhengqi was about to take action.

  But he had to hold back, this was the Tiger Garden Manor, and once they started fighting, even if he could kill Feng Lie, with the flames released by Feng Lie's Phoenix Wings, it would likely reduce the Tiger Garden Manor to ashes, and everyone inside would be killed. The demon tigers that Song Qian Shan had prepared would also not escape death.

  "Feng Lie!"

  Qin Zheng looked at Feng Lie, who was proudly flying back and forth in the air, with flames burning on his phoenix wings, also setting fire to the clouds at the horizon, shocking countless people in Ziyang Town.

  The people in the mountain villa were also startled and rushed over.

  The manager is in charge of handling this matter.

  Qin Zheng and Song Qianshan walked aside.

  "The current situation, you've also seen it, the four alliances have been eliminated, but in this dead end, they were just the outermost ones. The ones that truly brought us crisis haven't made a move yet. Feng Lie's arrival makes us even more dangerous." Qin Zheng looked at the distant great hall that no longer existed, still feeling some emotion. Feng Lie's martial aura was indeed extraordinary.

  "Master, is there still a chance for us to survive?" Song Qianshan spoke out his concern for the first time, he had almost lost hope for the future.

  The Qin government's destruction of the Four Families Alliance was at its most exciting moment, but Feng Lie's appearance was like a splash of cold water on Song Qian Shan's head, making him calm down. His analysis of the situation made him despair.

  "Even you don't have confidence anymore." Qin Zheng sighed quietly, and indeed, the situation was difficult to give people confidence.

  "I'm telling the truth, so I hope you won't blame me," said Song Qianshan.

  "Speak," Qin Zheng said lightly.

  "We've completely lost all hope, it's a dead end. Unless some powerful expert comes to our aid, but that's impossible. The only hope for the Hu Garden Mountain Villa is the East Sea Royal Palace, but they're being held back and can't help us. As for the Long Xiang tribe, their hope lies in the Dragon Elephant tribe's headquarters, but after countless years of no contact, they've even been at odds with each other, to the point where the Dragon Elephant tribe's headquarters is actually working against us. In this situation, I really can't think of what our hope is."

  Qin Zheng was indifferent, but he could sense that Song Qian Shan had lost all confidence and his will to fight was crumbling. It was the appearance of Feng Lie that had stimulated him, after all, the prestige brought by the identity of the young prince of the Phoenix Blood Royal Family was too strong, not everyone was like Qin Zheng, who dared to take the lives of even the Three Emperors.

  This is probably everyone's heart.

  Qin Zheng looked at the busy people in Huyuan Mountain Villa, their joy was gone, and there were worries between their eyebrows.

  "Master," said Song Qianshan, "I have a question for you."

  Qin Zheng nodded.

  "If you were given another chance, would you still choose this path of no return for the sake of your friend?" Song Qianshan asked Qin Zheng intently.
