Li Fengyuan
The slender and seemingly attractive figure under the black clothes slightly attracted Ling Tian's gaze, raising his eyebrows slightly as he looked at her.
"Something?"
Ling Tian asked causally, Xuanyuan Ling narrowed her eyes slightly at this person and Shin Wei yawned faintly.
"R-really are you, Feng Yu?"
A slightly nervous little voice was heard shortly after, causing Ling Tian to pay more attention.
"And you are?" Ling Tian asked with some curiosity as he looked at her thoroughly with some intensity, causing a slight displeasure that did not go unnoticed.
The slender but beautiful figure looked at Ling Tian for several seconds before slowly pulling back the hood that covered her face, revealing a magically beautiful face of youthful charm, with long eyelashes, refined nose and thin lips; along with beautiful eyes that conveyed an indomitable spirit showed a spectacular and extremely beautiful face that was painted on her!
Ling Tian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly surprised just like Shin Wei to see a young beauty who was on another level. Xuanyuan Ling blinked slightly in surprise before strangely glancing sideways at Ling Tian.
"You don't remember me?" The young woman with an appearance of 18-20 years old asked soon after with an obvious hesitation.
"No."
Ling Tian denied without bothering to explain his situation. But he was interested in who is this woman who dared to come. Could she be a childhood friend or lover of the supposed Feng Yu?
The woman grimaced slightly as she narrowed her eyes, as if she was scanning Ling Tian and thinking in her mind.
"I am Li Fengyuan."
Ling Tian simply raised his raised eyebrows a little more, indicating to her that he had no idea who Li Fengyuan was.
"I'm the daughter of the Li family and... we were engaged before you disappeared..." Li Fengyuan whispered as she clenched the small dagger in one of her hands, as if she found it hard to talk about this.
"Li Family?"
Finally, Ling Tian recalled some of the information he had been told by the guards when they were in the Nightmare Valley.
Li Family!
One of the major families of Ronchen City!
Although this Li family is the least powerful among the great families, it is still one of them.
And also, there is the knowledge that the most beautiful woman in the city is the Young Miss of the Li family!
Li Fengyuan!
"And so? You come to collect your debt with me for disappearing? Future wife of mine~?" Ling Tian asked with a slight smirk as he was interested in this kind of event. Li Fengyuan has a cultivation at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, so she didn't look like a mere vase of flowers either.
Ling Tian was not surprised by the past engagement, as it is normal for families to relate in different ways and engage their descendants with each other to become stronger. This is a world where interests, reputation and strength comes before everything else.
Li Fengyuan furrowed her brows as she listened to Ling Tian, but when she saw his gaze that had nothing but simple curiosity but at the same time a hint of indifference as if he didn't really care, Li Fengyuan was inwardly surprised. Normally men would always look at her with desire and lust! But in his eyes there was none of that, not even a hint of mischief or desire!
She was also inwardly surprised to see Ling Tian's almost perfect appearance, with a unique and attractive charm with an appearance of little more than 20 years old, but with a charm that completely surpassed the supposed handsome young men in the city!
"I don't know if you already know but our engagement was annulled and I am now engaged to your older cousin, Feng Xuan." Li Fengyuan gritted her teeth as she talked about Feng Xuan.
"Oh?" Ling Tian pretended to be surprised and asked, "So shouldn't you be going to see your fiancé? Why are you looking for me?" He could already imagine what was going on with this young woman.
Li Fengyuan frowned even more before sighing and saying, "Because I don't want to marry him..."
Li Fengyuan did not want to marry the arrogant, evil and lustful Feng Xuan!
Ling Tian sighed internally as he confirmed it.
This is a matter of families that did not take Li Fengyuan into consideration and were forcing her to marry Feng Xuan!
Li Fengyuan alone could not go against her family, let alone fight against the Feng family, so she had no choice but to vainly fight against her fate.
Shin Wei also couldn't help but let out a sigh when seeing this kind of situation. Xuanyuan Ling glared at Li Fengyuan.
"And why are you looking for me?" Ling Tian tiredly asked something he already knew, having witnessed it on more than one occasion.
"Because I want you to help me." Li Fengyuan let down her guard and finally released the oppression she held, "You are the only one who can help me out of this situation."
"I don't know if you know, but I'm no longer the Feng Yu everyone knew. Besides, I have no strength and will simply be a cripple all my life. How do you think I will be able to help you?" Ling Tian shook his head and said. Although she is a beautiful woman who begged for help and thousands of men would accept without hesitation, he had experienced and matured a lot, so he would not be easily attracted or tempted by beauty alone. Ling Tian could imagine what he would have to do if he agreed to help Li Fengyuan.
Li Fengyuan was stunned to hear Ling Tian's reply but quickly shook her head. How could she realize that this was not the Feng Yu of the past? She had simply met Feng Yu once before he disappeared, so Li Fengyuan did not know that this person really wasn't Feng Yu. Their engagement had been set up when they would just turn 15 years old, but it was a few days before Feng Yu's disappearance occurred, therefore, the two of them had only met personally once at their families' reunion.
But Li Fengyuan did not believe Ling Tian's words, after all, she had seen him easily beat and defeat Simu Zhicai with a single blow!
How could a mere cripple defeat Simu Zhicai?!
Li Fengyuan looked at Ling Tian and although she could see that he really is a cripple, she refused to believe it. Sometimes the eyes could deceive and make others believe something totally different.
After thinking about it for an indefinite time, Li Fengyuan hesitated. But looking into Ling Tian's clear and calm eyes, the resolve in her took hold and her decision was made.
"I have a favor to ask of you." Li Fengyuan spoke soon after, "And in return you can ask me for anything, as long as it is in my disposition."
Ling Tian nodded his head for Li Fengyuan to continue.
"Engage with me."
The request was thrown directly.
Shin Wei blinked in surprise before smiling delightedly inwardly as he imagined what Ling Tian would do. Xuanyuan Ling was surprised as well and finally couldn't help but look at Ling Tian.
"I refuse. Why should I?"
But Ling Tian simply refused and snorted indifferently. Why should he help her? Simply because she's an incomparable beauty? Because of her current state? That's nonsense!
Li Fengyuan couldn't help but let her expression change and shock flash across her face, showing that she really hadn't expected it.
However, Li Fengyuan regained her temper and said, "Because I don't want to marry that bastard. I'd rather resume our engagement from the past to avoid Feng Xuan. If you do this, I promise to give you whatever you want, Spirit Crystals, weapons, pills or ask me to do favors for you in the future... I could even help you look for the Meridian Reconstruction Pill so that you can cultivate yourself again."
