Qin Keqing?
Was the person beside Hua Jieyu really Qin Keqing? How was that possible? He had interacted with Qin Keqing several times and had clearly felt that she was an ordinary person. How could she possibly be Hua Jieyu’s friend?
If she was not Qin Keqing, then who was this person beside Hua Jieyu? She looked far too much like Qin Keqing, so similar that it was as if they had been carved from the same mould.
After staring at her for a while, Li Feng shook his head inwardly.
This was not Qin Keqing.
But if she was not Qin Keqing, how could she look so alike? Was it just a coincidence?
Li Feng shook his head again. This was definitely not a coincidence. Two people could look similar, but their aura could never be the same.
This person, who looked almost exactly like Qin Keqing, was not only nearly identical in appearance, there were also similarities in her aura.
Who was she? Was she Qin Keqing’s sister?
But this person, who looked almost exactly like Qin Keqing, currently possessed the aura of the ninth level of the acquired realm. If she really was Qin Keqing’s sister, then why did Qin Keqing not practise martial arts at all? Was it because Qin Keqing lacked talent?
It seemed there were secrets here that outsiders did not know. At the same time, Li Feng was certain that there must be some kind of relationship between the two.
It seemed he should find time to ask Qin Keqing about this properly. Ever since he returned from Kunyang Town, he had felt that Qin Keqing’s identity was not simple. He had wanted Eagle Eye to investigate her background, but because of all kinds of matters, it had been delayed again and again.
The last time he dealt with Blood Shadow, he had personally seen Qin Keqing together with Cai Die. It was Cai Die who had been threatening Qin Keqing to do something. However, after resolving Cai Die’s matter, he had to prepare for the Boxing King Tournament, and there was also the Northern Underworld family issue, so he never went to see Qin Keqing.
Now it seemed that it was indeed necessary to meet Qin Keqing. Perhaps he could obtain something from her.
Moreover, Qin Keqing was someone he liked, someone he wanted. There was nothing he wanted that he could not get, and Qin Keqing was no exception.
“Young Master Feng, what are you looking at?” Hua Jieyu walked up to Li Feng. Seeing his dazed gaze, she smiled and said, “Could it be that Young Master Feng has taken a fancy to our little sister Ke Ying?”
“Ke Ying? Qin Ke Ying?” Li Feng was taken aback.
“I knew it. Young Master Feng must have fallen for our little sister Ke Ying, otherwise you would not even know her name,” Hua Jieyu laughed, speaking with a hint of deeper meaning.
“Your name is Qin Ke Ying?” Li Feng stared closely at Qin Ke Ying and asked.
“That is right. I am Qin Ke Ying,” Qin Ke Ying replied as she looked at Li Feng, her expression icy, with no emotion at all in her eyes.
Qin Keqing, Qin Ke Ying, and they even looked almost exactly the same. If there was no relationship between them, Li Feng would not believe it even if beaten to death.
“Young Master Feng, are you trying to pursue our little sister Ke Ying? Unfortunately, our little sister Ke Ying will not like someone like you,” Hua Jieyu said.
“Hua Jieyu, I only like someone like you,” Li Feng said domineeringly, his gaze falling on Hua Jieyu. “From today onwards, you, Hua Jieyu, are my woman. When you go back, wash yourself clean and wait for me to dote on you.”
“You…” Hua Jieyu was so angry that she could not speak.
“Hee hee…”
“Haha…”
Seeing Hua Jieyu at a loss for words, the friends she had brought could not help laughing. At the same time, they were somewhat puzzled. Normally, if Hua Jieyu heard a man speak to her like this, she would definitely attack him, crippling or killing him without hesitation. But now, although she was angry, she showed no intention of making a move.
Could it be that Hua Jieyu was wary of this Young Master Feng?
Thinking of this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
They knew a little about Hua Jieyu. If this Young Master Feng was someone she feared, then he must be no simple character.
Moreover, considering that this Young Master Feng was here today to sell slots for the Boxing King Tournament, a trace of solemnity flashed through their eyes.
“You are here to exchange for slots, right? I trust Hua Jieyu has told you my rules. Let us begin now,” Li Feng said.
“Alright.”
A quarter of an hour later, everyone got what they wanted and exchanged for five slots from Li Feng. Li Feng also obtained five items. Although these items were not as priceless as the Nine Dragon Jade or the item in Hua Jieyu’s wooden box, they were exactly what Li Feng needed. Especially the two spirit herbs, which were materials for refining Innate Pills.
“Everyone, when the time comes, gather with Hua Jieyu before the Boxing King Tournament. Rest assured, I will inform Hua Jieyu half a day in advance. If I do not take you to Dark Prison Island then, I will return your items to you at double their value,” Li Feng said solemnly after putting away the items, addressing Qin Ke Ying and the others.
“Young Master Feng, what if you die on Dark Prison Island? Would that not mean we get nothing at all?” At this moment, Shen Kongxuan, the only man among Hua Jieyu’s friends, spoke up.
“What do you think should be done?” Li Feng narrowed his eyes. He did not think he would die on Dark Prison Island, but others did not necessarily believe that. This was indeed an issue.
If the one raising this question had been Hua Jieyu, Li Feng would have considered it carefully. But since it was Shen Kongxuan, Li Feng felt that Shen Kongxuan had ulterior motives.
Earlier, when he was trading with Qin Ke Ying and the others, Shen Kongxuan had glanced at the spirit herbs and ancient jade he obtained, and a trace of greed had flashed in his eyes. That look might have escaped others, but it did not escape Li Feng. He had been monitoring everything with his spiritual sense.
Li Feng understood the principle that possessing treasure invites disaster. That was why he had been on full alert throughout this transaction.
“Take out the invitation,” Shen Kongxuan said.
“For you?” Li Feng looked at Shen Kongxuan with a smiling expression.
“To Hua Jieyu,” Shen Kongxuan almost said himself, but changed his words at the last moment.
“So you trust Hua Jieyu, but not me?” Li Feng’s eyes flickered, a cold smile flashing deep within them. How could he not understand Shen Kongxuan’s little schemes? He was simply jealous of the valuable items Li Feng had obtained.
“Yes,” Shen Kongxuan nodded.
“Do you think Hua Jieyu is strong?” Li Feng asked.
Hua Jieyu and the others were stunned. They had not thought of Shen Kongxuan’s question earlier and were preparing to see how Li Feng would answer, but instead Li Feng shifted the topic to Hua Jieyu.
“Hua Jieyu is naturally strong,” Shen Kongxuan said without hesitation. She was the strongest among them.
“Then do you think Hua Jieyu would die on Dark Prison Island?” Li Feng continued.
“That is impossible,” Shen Kongxuan replied without hesitation.
Oh.
Hearing Shen Kongxuan’s words, Li Feng understood. So Shen Kongxuan was a pursuer of Hua Jieyu, and hearing Li Feng’s earlier words had made him jealous.
It seemed that Shen Kongxuan not only coveted the items in his hands, but was also motivated by Hua Jieyu. Truly, beauty brings calamity.
“In that case, if I cannot take you to Dark Prison Island, I will hand your items to Hua Jieyu. After Hua Jieyu leaves Dark Prison Island, she will return them to you. What do you think? Hua Jieyu is your friend, so you should trust her, unless you think that Hua Jieyu and I are colluding to swindle your items,” Li Feng said.
Hua Jieyu glared fiercely at Li Feng. What did he mean by colluding? Did he think she was that kind of person?
Qin Ke Ying and the others looked at Li Feng, then at Hua Jieyu, lost in thought.
“Hmph. What if you do not even take Hua Jieyu to Dark Prison Island? Would that not mean you are deceiving Hua Jieyu as well?” Shen Kongxuan snorted coldly.
“Hua Jieyu believes that I will take her to Dark Prison Island. Hua Jieyu, am I right?” Li Feng looked at Hua Jieyu.
Although Hua Jieyu was angry with Li Feng, she still said, “I believe you.”
“Hua Jieyu, there are many liars in this world. Besides, we do not even know whether he really has an invitation. This person’s background is unclear, and he will not even state his name. You should not trust him,” Shen Kongxuan said coldly, glaring at Li Feng. Hua Jieyu’s simple words, I believe you, completely ignited the anger in his heart. “So I think this has been a scam from beginning to end, to cheat us out of our precious treasures.”
“Then what do you want?” Li Feng’s gaze turned cold. Shen Kongxuan’s words had exhausted his patience.
“You take out the invitation and hand it to Hua Jieyu. We trust Hua Jieyu and believe she will definitely take us to Dark Prison Island to participate in the Boxing King Tournament. There are six of us here. One invitation can take up to ten people. If you want to go, you can follow Hua Jieyu,” Shen Kongxuan said.
“Clap clap clap…”
Li Feng applauded lightly and looked at Shen Kongxuan. “Very reasonable, tightly linked step by step. Shen Kongxuan, I must say, this is a good plan.”
“You agree?” Shen Kongxuan’s eyes lit up with joy. As long as he got the invitation, he could then find a chance to kill Li Feng, and all those treasures would be his.
“Agree?” Li Feng sneered. “Why would I agree?”
“You…” Shen Kongxuan glared angrily at Li Feng. Clearly, Li Feng’s words were unexpected. After taking a deep breath, he said coldly, “Young Master Feng, could it be that you really do not have an invitation in your hands?”
“Whether I have an invitation or not is none of your concern,” Li Feng said coldly. He took a jade box from his spatial pouch and handed it to Shen Kongxuan.
“What do you mean by this?” Shen Kongxuan was stunned.
“Did you not distrust me? This is your spirit herb, returned to you. Our transaction is cancelled. Now, you can get lost,” Li Feng said coldly. Wanting a slot while acting so arrogantly, as if he was someone important. If not for Hua Jieyu’s sake, he might have already killed this bastard. Give him an inch and he would take a mile.
