Chapter 1975 - 1975: Ancient Memories About Yun (1)
Regret stabbed Yun Feng’s heart fiercely like a sharp knife. The continuous torture made her feel clear pain almost every second. She regretted believing, trusting, letting down her guard… She couldn’t see everything clearly with her eyes.
“Xiao Fengfeng…” Qu Lanyi looked at Yun Feng’s silent back and didn’t know what to do. He could only watch and accompany her. He could feel the regret and pain in Yun Feng’s heart, but he found that any comforting words were unnecessary.
Ever since that day, Yun Feng had been sitting there expressionlessly without saying a word for half a month. Even if Qu Lanyi said something, she didn’t seem to hear him. Qu Lanyi sighed. Nobody could have expected such an accident. Who would have thought that such a woman was one of the four elders of the Blood Souls? She was stronger than the two of them. How would they notice?
Qu Lanyi walked over and sat down quietly, daydreaming with Yun Feng. She needed time to calm down, or rather, she needed time to heal her heart. She still had to continue walking on her road. Zhan Li’s body was penetrated by Yan Xin and he died on the spot. However, for Zhan Li, if his soul was still there, there was still a possibility of rebirth. After Yan Xin left that day, the two of them immediately started talking about the resurrection of his soul. As long as his soul was still here, Zhan Li wouldn’t really die!
However… Yan Xin, one of the four elders of the Blood Souls, cut off all his escape routes. Zhan Li’s soul was taken away by her just like that. Ever since then, Yun Feng had been silent and didn’t say a word.
Nobody else knew what happened. The news of Zhan Li’s accident couldn’t be leaked. Once it was leaked, there was a high chance that something would happen to the Mercenary Union. Once something happened to the huge Mercenary Union, the consequences would be unimaginable. If the Blood Souls took advantage of the situation, it could be imagined.
Everyone at the headquarters thought that Zhan Li was still recuperating in peace. Nobody would have thought that the president of the Mercenary Union was already gone.
A gust of wind blew and the faint fragrance of food seemed to come from afar. Yun Feng’s body trembled fiercely and she suddenly clenched her fists on the stone table, exerting so much strength that the veins on the back of her hands could be seen clearly.
“Lanyi, thank you,” said Yun Feng in a low voice with an extremely calm tone. Qu Lanyi was startled and looked at Yun Feng worriedly. “As I said, you don’t have to be so polite to me.”
The corners of Yun Feng’s mouth curled up indifferently. “It’s been so long. The pain in my heart can’t be eliminated. For my godfather… I only have guilt. It’s all my fault. It’s my fault for trusting others too easily.”
Qu Lanyi frowned. “It’s the same for anyone else. Neither of us noticed it. If you’re in the wrong, I’m also in the wrong.”
“One of the four elders of the Blood Souls… Yan Xin.” Yun Feng’s nails dug into the flesh of her palm fiercely and a clear pain came. “We’ll definitely meet again. Definitely!”
“Don’t you think it’s strange that Uncle Zhan’s soul was taken away? According to the style of the Blood Souls, Uncle Zhan would definitely be killed to silence him after learning such important information. Why did they take his soul away? Shouldn’t they destroy his soul casually so that Uncle Zhan can’t be resurrected?”
Yun Feng sneered. “The Blood Souls have always done whatever they want. They certainly have other uses for taking my father’s soul away.” Yun Feng’s expression eased a bit. “However, my father’s soul is still out there, so there’s a possibility of resurrection. He’s not dead!” Yun Feng stood up. “In the past half month, I’ve been thinking who should take care of the Mercenary Union. My father’s efforts can’t be ruined.”
“Such a huge organization must be managed by someone meticulous. Yan Ming is probably the best candidate,” said Qu Lanyi. Yun Feng shook her head. “How would I not know that he’s the most suitable? However… the East and West Alliance has already given him too much burden. I can’t and won’t trouble him anymore.”
“Do you have a suitable candidate in your mind?” Qu Lanyi frowned. Yun Feng nodded. “Mu Canghai and Ze Ran are the best candidates I’ve thought of. Judging from the current situation, these two people can be said to be free and have the most free time. Mu Canghai is calm and collected, and Ze Ran has a rigorous personality. It’s not bad for the two of them to take over the organization together.”
Qu Lanyi was helpless. “As long as you think they’re suitable, I have no objection.”
Yun Feng replied softly and sighed. “The strength of the four elders is above yours and mine, which means that their strength has already jumped to the God Venerable Level. Then, what about the Soul Master of the Blood Souls…
Even if we have multiple Element Seeds, we can’t use the energy of the Element
Seeds, but the Blood Souls are different.”
Qu Lanyi frowned. “The longer we go on this road, the more we find the difference between us and the enemy.”
“That’s right. I thought the God Emperor Level was already a surprise. Now that I look at it, if we fight with the Blood Souls, we’ll definitely lose!” Thinking of this, Yun Feng’s heart couldn’t help but feel extremely gloomy. The four elders had already jumped to the God Venerable Level. Master was the only one who had reached the God Venerable Level so far! What level was that mysterious Soul Master of the Blood Souls? Above the God Venerable Level!
“We’ve finally learned some information about the internal structure of the Blood Souls. Below the Soul Master should be the so-called four elders, and below them should be another level.’
“Four elders… Four God Venerables… If we want to beat the Blood Souls, we can’t be too weak. There should be at least four God Venerables!”
“You and I are two. Yun Qi will very likely become the third, and the fourth God Venerable… might be Xuan Yi.”
“Xuan Yi?” Yun Feng was shocked. Qu Lanyi looked gloomy. “I said a long time ago that I couldn’t see through his strength. As we increased our strength, his strength seemed to have increased like a tide. It’s not that he’s improving rapidly, but that he’s already reached such a level.”
“So… from the beginning, his strength has surpassed ours!”
“That’s very likely.” Qu Lanyi nodded. Yun Feng was silent. If that was the case, why did Xuan Yi hide his strength? Had his real strength really reached the God Venerable Level as Lanyi said? How old was he… If that was the case, Yun Feng herself admitted that she was inferior! She was far inferior to Xuan Yi in terms of talent!
“However, we can completely exclude Xuan Yi. We can’t treat him as a friend.”
Qu Lanyi’s voice was deep. “He obviously has ulterior motives..”
