CHAPTER 868: CHAPTER 889: DEATH GOD CONQUERS THE MOUNTAIN AND RIVER LIST

"Brother, can you handle it?"

Shuobude, after being helped up by Lin Zifeng, immediately furrowed his thick eyebrows slightly. He and Lin Zifeng had both experienced Huo Fenghuang’s treachery, and seeing Lin Zifeng step into the fray against someone as powerful as her made him somewhat worried.

If no expert comes to stop her, they even think Lin Zifeng might not be able to defeat her.

"A man can’t admit defeat. Don’t worry, I can hold my own against her." Lin Zifeng said with a deeply playful smile.

Instantly, it provoked a burst of laughter from the crowd.

Huo Fenghuang was so enraged that her sharp eyebrows knit together, as if she wished to cut him down on the spot.

"You two are already severely injured. Allow me to fight for you next." Supporting both Shuobude and Huo Zhengfeng together, Lin Zifeng’s determined gaze gave both men immense confidence. Yet little did Lin Zifeng know, ten years later, this bald Shuobude would become a mentor to his son.

Even half of his son’s mischievousness could be attributed to him—

"Alright! Brother, we’ll leave the hope of defeating Huo Fenghuang to you. Even if we lose, we will be proud of having fought! If we meet again in the future, we will surely become good brothers." Huo Zhengfeng, holding a Soft Sword, nodded to Lin Zifeng and handed the Soft Sword to him, saying seriously, "That bitch learned my Sword Net Skill. You might be at a disadvantage bare-handed, so I’ll lend you this Soft Sword. Defeat her for me!"

...

"Hey, you great-grandson of your grandfather’s grandmother, have you seen enough? Now it’s your turn to step in."

In the corner of the ring, a sleazy man nudged the strong man beside him with his shoulder.

"Huh? What, big brother!"

Seemingly engrossed, the strong man was somewhat bewildered by the man’s reminder.

"Damn it, did you forget what I just told you to do?"

The man scolded him angrily, his already small eyes squinting half closed, half open, appearing quite sleazy.

"Oh! I got it, I got it."

The strong man awkwardly scratched his head, then suddenly stood up and shouted loudly toward the bottom of the ring, "Death God, defeat Huo Fenghuang, I..."

The strong man’s random shout.

Immediately, hundreds of eyes from above the ring all swiftly turned to focus on Lin Zifeng.

Damn it! I originally wanted to hide my identity, but it seems someone has seen through it.

Lin Zifeng looked helplessly toward the strong man, but as soon as the strong man turned his head, the sleazy man beside him had vanished!!!

"What the hell!"

The strong man was dumbfounded, with hundreds of people staring at him, and he couldn’t find any reason to explain.

Looks like I’ve been tricked.

Damn it, can this world still keep on playing? I read less, so I keep getting duped!

Huo Fenghuang pointed her longsword straight at Lin Zifeng’s face, speaking coldly, "Are you the K-9 Death God?"

Since he couldn’t hide it any longer, Lin Zifeng had nothing left to conceal. He removed the black cloth from his face, revealing a sunny, stern face to everyone.

"Boom—!"

In a luxury box on the third floor, an old man suddenly stood up and pointed at the screen on the wall, saying, "How did that kid get up there? Is he also participating in the Mountain and River List competition today?"

This elder was a figure of the elder rank within the Huo family of Dragon City and was the Protective Elder accompanying Huo Fenghuang. Besides Huo Fenghuang, nearly all others on the Mountain and River List were alone, and even those with family backgrounds didn’t exceed three.

It was precisely because of the family’s protection that the proud Huo Fenghuang could wantonly kill others!

What she wanted was to eliminate all potential opponents of her generation, so she could dominate alone in the future, with no one able to challenge her. Such despicable methods might be deliberately encouraged by some members of the Huo family.

Once a potential king like Shuobude or Huo Zhengfeng rises in the future, they would surely be recruited by other family forces, which would not be beneficial for her Huo family.

"What? Does Elder Huo have any objections?" Long Zaitian smiled at him.

The reason Lin Zifeng appeared today was indeed orchestrated by Long Zaitian.

"No, no objections." The elder’s face turned ghastly pale, he cupped his hands and retreated to the side. In that box, who wasn’t a hero? He, a mere family elder, meant nothing.

However, as the elder retreated, a cold, murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he glanced at Lin Zifeng.

Half an hour ago, he witnessed the might of Lin Zifeng when he defeated the seventh person on the Mountain and River List in the chamber.

If this time Huo Fenghuang couldn’t make it to the top three, he would surely get rid of Lin Zifeng. To him, the Death God was nothing but a speck of dust.

...

"Do you recognize me?" Lin Zifeng smiled as he looked at her, feeling somewhat apprehensive when she called out his name.

This woman was indeed very sinister.

"You’re just a Heavenly Gate dog, a small mercenary daring to step into the fray. I see you’re courting death!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

Huo Fenghuang’s long robe fluttered as she swung her longsword and suddenly moved toward Lin Zifeng.

"You, stand aside!"

Lin Zifeng turned his head and shouted coldly, instructing Shuobude and Huo Zhengfeng to step down.

Holding the Soft Sword, Lin Zifeng stood in the ring, his deep and hollow eyes fixed on Huo Fenghuang approaching.

"Hah!"

Huo Fenghuang shouted, and a purple sword light sliced across the sky, launching an offensive, with the heavy purple Vital Energy boosting the sword light, making it almost as powerful as a bamboo shoot breaking through the earth.

Lin Zifeng retreated two steps, holding the slender and delicate Soft Sword, unwilling to meet its edge.

He well knew that Huo Fenghuang’s Sword Net was formidable. Once close and engaged in a protracted battle, he might very well be ensnared by her Sword Net, making escape difficult.

"Dare not meet the edge?"

Huo Fenghuang took the upper hand and laughed coldly.

"Haha—just starting, what’s your rush?" Lin Zifeng was calm, laughing, and continued to retreat backward.

With the water mist painting her, Huo Fenghuang’s clothing clung with an impression of flesh pressing, especially the two snow-white peaks, barely hidden by the soaked light gauze, making the snowy texture underneath almost easily discernible.

Especially under the gaze of someone like Lin Zifeng, capable of seeing through it, the scenery underneath was entirely captured by his eyes.

"Then let me finish you!"

Huo Fenghuang cut short her cold smile and continued her relentless pursuit with her blade.

With a graceful leap, she soared over three meters high above the ring! Holding her gleaming longsword, she sliced downwards from the air, unleashing a purple sword light like a purple thunder dragon from the Nine Heavens, madly weaving out purple sword lights and then suddenly devouring toward Lin Zifeng.

What impressive swordsmanship!

No, that’s not just swordsmanship. She has actually fused her purple Vital Energy with her sword skill!

So, she didn’t use her full strength when she fought against Shuobude and Huo Zhengfeng earlier?
