Chapter 1148 - More Outstanding Than Lin Feng?

"Hehe, Qian Jin Cai Yue noticed us. Wait, she'll have someone call us to go upstairs," said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin casually. Lin Feng raised his eyes and looked towards the sixth floor. The curtains of the windows on the sixth floor were all closed…

Lin Feng and Godly Ancestor Tu Jin sat down at a table and waited. Godly Ancestor Tu Jin was confident. He counted to three and…

"You two, our Miss wants to see you," said a woman in a red skirt. She didn't sound particularly respectful, but she did smile.

Lin Feng looked at her. She looked like one of those women from the auctions Lin Feng noticed that those maid-servants had lost lots of their feminine charm and gestures, which he found strange.

Lin Feng didn't know what those maid-servants felt like when Qian Jin Cai Yue talked to them. When Qian Jin Cai Yue told them something, they did it immediately. Qian Jin Cai Yue only recruited orphans who had neither parents nor siblings. All those women were at the prime of their youth.

Those women had kind of become Qian Jin Cai Yue's maid-servant army. They helped Qian Jin Cai Yue do many things, and Qian Jin Cai Yue had established many rules which those women didn't dare break.

"Let's go up and see your Miss," Lin Feng said to the woman. They headed up to the sixth floor. The crowd watched them go in admiration.

Half a month ago, Lin Feng from the University of Stars and Clouds had drawn Miss Qian Jin Cai Yue's attention, the first time a man had ever gone into her room. Half a month later, Qian Jin Cai Yue had now called TWO men to her room. This time their faces were covered, and nobody knew who they were.

The only thing they were sad about these days was that the University of Stars and Clouds had won the Great Competition, but they hadn't been able to enjoy the glory for too long because eight Godly Ancestors had suddenly ambushed the members of the University of Stars and Clouds before Qian Jin Cai Yue had intervened.

Many people didn't understand why Qian Jin Cai Yue had intervened. How had she made eight Godly Ancestors retreat? She was strong, but she was just a female cultivator of the seventh Great Supreme God layer. She wasn't even a Godly Ancestor!

The people were confused. Of course, all they could do was talk about those things with other people who had no idea what was going on at the top. They would never know the truth because they were insignificant.

Lin Feng and the woman in the red skirt quickly arrived on the sixth floor. It was definitely a woman's room. The door was open and there was a rainbow-colored curtain made of crystals hanging on the door so Lin Feng couldn't see inside.

It was the second time Lin Feng had been there. He was getting used to it already, including the smell. It didn't affect Lin Feng at all. However, Godly Ancestor Tu Jin was affected and almost lost control, even though he was extremely strong.

Of course, he was extremely strong so he quickly managed to control his Qi, but Qian Jin Cai Yue had noticed that.

Qian Jin Cai Yue looked at Lin Feng's curiously. Wasn't he affected by her perfume? She was instantly interested in him. Of course, it wasn't because she had a good impression, it was just because she wanted to understand how that was possible. Even Lin Feng had been affected by her smell. How come the man in front of her wasn't affected at all?

"Please come in, you two," said Qian Jin Cai Yue smiled, as pretty as a flower. The two women in red skirts opened the crystal curtains at that moment, so Lin Feng and Godly Ancestor Tu Jin entered the room.

He immediately noticed she looked different from usual. Something was missing in her eyes. She looked sad. She tried to hide it but Lin Feng saw it.

Was it because of me? Or because of something else?, Lin Feng wondered.

Godly Ancestor Tu Jin didn't feel much at all. Qian Jin Cai Yue was extremely young, and he was extremely old. He looked at woman of the generation of Qian Jin Cai Yue's mother, Ni Huang. Therefore, Qian Jin Cai Yue was beautiful, but he didn't really pay attention to her.

"Why do you walk around with your faces covered? Do you have something to hide?" asked Qian Jin Cai Yue, when she saw they both remained silent.

"Yes, we are in a difficult position and we can't talk about it," Lin Feng confirmed. He even changed his voice, or Qian Jin Cai Yue would have recognized him and their plan would have been ruined.

"Hehe, you're funny. Since you can't talk about it, I won't insist. But then again, I still wanted to ask you… do you have something to do in the Celestial Pavilion of Enchantments?"

"Indeed!" said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin indifferently.

Qian Jin Cai Yue was startled, then she realized the Qi of the man with the plaited bamboo hat started suppressing her. That man had the strength of the Godly Ancestor layer but… it wasn't any weaker than her mother's Qi!

Qian Jin Cai Yue was stupefied. Her mother had told her about the world order of the World of Battles. Her mother had told her that there were close connections between the nine Overlords of the Cardinal Points.

At her mother's level, apart from the eight other overlords, there were only the overlords in the top ten of the List of the World of Battles, some of whom were those eight people, too. For example, the one ranked second in the List of the World of Battles was Hong Meng, who was also known as Hong Meng of the Center.

The third ranked was Mo Xiao, who was also the Demon Ancestor of the South. Fu Yi from the Human Clan was also the Human Ancestor of the East. Therefore, those people were connected in various ways.

There were many Godly Ancestors in the World of Battles, and up to dozens and dozens of them in each territory. However, the world order could only be changed by the dozen people who stood at the very top of the world, as well as those who were extremely strong and lived in isolation.

She could sense a Qi at least as powerful as her mother's Qi emerge from the man with the black plaited bamboo hat. She realized he might be one of those extremely strong cultivators.

She had to be careful. When she studied at Godly Ancestor Tu Jin again, she was much more serious. She raised her head and the women in red skirts knelt down in front of her. Qian Jin Cai Yue then whispered a few sentences to them and the women hastily ran away.

"Master, I hope you're not here to cause trouble. People who come to Liang City usually want to relax and have some fun. Please be merciful. Whatever you're thinking, you can tell me; I may be able to help you," said Qian Jin Cai Yue, bowing hand over fist.

Godly Ancestor Tu Jin was a bit startled, but then he smiled wryly. He hadn't thought Qian Jin Cai Yue was so smart.

However, Qian Jin Cai Yue couldn't see Godly Ancestor Tu Jin's expressions because his face was covered.

"Little girl, don't be nervous. I am one of your mother's good friends. How could we do anything against the Celestial Pavilion of Enchantments?" said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin smiling indifferently.

When Qian Jin Cai Yue heard him, she remained vigilant. She glanced at the window a few times. The women in red skirts had made everybody leave the building, so they were now completely alone inside.

Godly Ancestor Tu Jin already knew, but he didn't care; he just wanted to see Ni Huang, the rest didn't really matter.

"Little girl, you understand what I want. You're very smart," said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin.

Qian Jin Cai Yue paled. It was the first time she had seen one of the Ancestors of the Five Cardinal Points or Overlords of the Four Cardinal Points, apart from her mother.

The old man wanted to see her mother; she couldn't force him to leave, and she didn't know what to say.

"Little girl, take this jade pendant, give it to your mother. When she sees it, she'll let us see her," said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin. He could see she felt awkward, so he gave her a jade pendant that would prove who he was. The jade pendant was dazzling, half a hand in size, with ancient words carved on it. Qian Jin Cai Yue didn't understand them, but she could see that that talisman was extraordinary.

It could easily be compared to her mother's talismans. She was convinced the old man was extraordinary.

She took the jade pendant, bowed hand over fist, and said to Godly Ancestor Tu Jin respectfully, "Master, please wait. I will go and inform my mother immediately."

"Asura, go with her," said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin. He didn't nod, he just looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng was startled, but he quickly nodded. He turned around and followed Qian Jin Cai Yue. Qian Jin Cai Yue didn't want him to come with her, but she had no choice.

Godly Ancestor Tu Jin smiled strangely, but nobody knew what he was thinking. Why did he want to see Ni Huang?

——

Lin Feng followed Qian Jin Cai Yue. Qian Jin Cai Yue left the building and flew to the edge of Liang City.

Then she grinned, and turned around, studying Lin Feng carefully. She couldn't believe he had managed to follow her; she thought she was the fastest Great Supreme God!

However, Lin Feng had followed her easily. He had even stayed at her side the whole time. The distance between them hadn't exceeded ten meters during the whole trip.

"You… How come you're so fast?" Qian Jin Cai Yue asked. She looked at the man with the red mask angrily. There was a man who was more outstanding than Lin Feng?

"Why wouldn't I be fast?" Lin Feng smiled back.

As Asura, Lin Feng realized that that woman wasn't as detestable as he had thought. She had buried his brother and saved the University of Stars and Clouds, so Lin Feng had more esteem for her now.

Therefore, he didn't despise her anymore.

Qian Jin Cai Yue didn't know what Lin Feng was thinking, nor did she know the man who was more outstanding than Lin Feng was actually Lin Feng himself!

Qian Jin Cai Yue didn't waste time. She continued flying, even faster this time. She was flying towards a mountain range eight thousand li away where Ni Huang was living.
