The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1738 - 1736: Golden Scale

"Cough cough... it hurts, it hurts..." Suddenly, Ling Feng opened his eyes and sat up from the bed: "What on earth happened?"

"You’re awake?" At this moment, a familiar voice came, it was Shadow Strike.

"Boss, there are people from the Dragon Clan approaching our defense zone!" Ling Feng hurriedly pretended to be anxious.

Shadow Strike walked over, patted Ling Feng on the shoulder, and looked at him with a meaningful gaze: "Diga, do you know who you were battling with before?"

Ling Feng was stunned for a moment and said: "Wasn’t it someone from the Dragon Clan? That person wasn’t from our Shadow Department, and he was so strong. If not from the Dragon Clan, where could he be from!"

"Hahaha!" Shadow Strike laughed and said: "I don’t know whether to congratulate you or marvel at your ignorance and bravery! You were battling with Lord Xingyin!"

A look of shock appeared on Ling Feng’s face: "Lord Xingyin, how could it be? How could I be battling with Lord Xingyin? This... I need some time to digest this!"

Shadow Strike looked at Ling Feng, who was dumbfounded, with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Alright, don’t worry, even though you fought with Lord Xingyin, he didn’t hold it against you, and he even appreciates you!"

"Really?" Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said thankfully: "That’s good... I never expected Lord Xingyin to show up, I always thought it was a scout from the Dragon Clan, I was wondering since when did the Dragon Clan scouts become so formidable!"

"You are truly bold and fearless!" Shadow Strike said: "Lord Xingyin is the most skilled in assassination and concealing breath among the three lords. For you to fight so fiercely with Lord Xingyin, your strength is indeed remarkable. I underestimated you before. Oh, by the way, how are you feeling now?"

Ling Feng waved his arm and said: "I feel almost recovered now, feeling great!"

"Since you’re feeling almost recovered, you should go see Lord Xingyin then!" Shadow Strike said: "Lord Xingyin specifically instructed to visit him once you awaken."

Ling Feng asked worriedly: "Visit... Lord Xingyin isn’t intending to settle accounts later, is he?"

"Impossible!" Shadow Strike laughed heartily: "Lord Xingyin isn’t that kind of person. If he were to settle scores, you’d have been dead already!"

Ling Feng thought for a moment and said: "That’s true, then please lead the way, I really don’t know where Lord Xingyin’s residence is!"

Under the guidance of Shadow Strike, Ling Feng arrived at a very elegant garden. It was tranquil here, like an oasis in the midst of the City of Obliteration.

"Up ahead is Lord Xingyin’s residence. Without his permission, we don’t dare to enter lightly, so you had better go in by yourself!" Shadow Strike said.

Ling Feng nodded, took a deep breath, and walked along the garden path.

Upon stepping into the garden, Ling Feng immediately felt as if he was being pricked in the back, like a beast hidden in the shadows was staring at him intently.

"It’s quite an unsettling feeling!" Ling Feng muttered to himself.

Suddenly, at this moment, dozens of attacks appeared instantly around Ling Feng, sealing off all his retreats.

Ling Feng’s first reaction was that Xingyin wanted to kill him, but in the next instant, he forcibly suppressed the urge to resist and stood quietly.

Sure enough, those attacks stopped less than a centimeter from Ling Feng, and he could even feel Death God’s kiss.

"Why didn’t you resist?" At this moment, Xingyin’s voice came from the depths of the garden.

Ling Feng took a deep breath and said: "If Lord Xingyin wanted to kill me, why use such means? You could’ve killed me then and there, so I believe Lord Xingyin doesn’t intend to kill me."

"Not bad, bold and meticulous, to be able to suppress your battle instincts and desires in such a situation. You have truly impressed me!" Xingyin’s voice came with emotion: "I indeed didn’t plan to kill you, but I feel if we were enemies, you would be the most troublesome adversary!"

Ling Feng’s heart sank, then he dryly laughed and said: "Lord Xingyin must be joking, how could we possibly be enemies? I belong to Lord Yueqiu!"

"Alright, I’ve already investigated your background!" Xingyin said calmly: "Come in!"

As the words fell, the attacks around Ling Feng disappeared instantly, as did the feeling of being watched by a beast.

Ling Feng followed the stone path, and after a few turns, finally saw a Lake Heart Island in the center of a small lake, with an elegant three-story wooden pavilion on it.

With a splash, a water bridge rose from the surface of the lake. Ling Feng didn’t hesitate and walked directly on the water bridge towards Lake Heart Island.

Upon reaching Lake Heart Island, the door of the small pavilion opened, and inside stood a young man who had previously battled with Ling Feng, gazing at him with scrutinizing eyes.

Ling Feng touched his nose, then walked in: "Subordinate Diga, greets Lord Xingyin!"

"Rise!" Xingyin looked at Ling Feng and said: "I thought you would be unconscious for more than ten days, but you woke up in just three days. It seems your physical quality is stronger than I imagined. However, I am curious why I haven’t heard of your race before?"

"Our race seldom leaves our world before. If it weren’t for the weakening of the Star Core Power, we wouldn’t have taken the initiative to leave!" Ling Feng explained.

Xingyin didn’t delve deeper into whether what Ling Feng said was true. He looked at Ling Feng with interest: "You were able to perceive my breath before, I am very interested in you. I now offer you an opportunity to join me. As for Yueqiu, I can speak on your behalf!"

Ling Feng frowned: "Lord Xingyin, I don’t know why you’re interested in me, but Lord Yueqiu treats me very well, I..."

"I’ve spoken with Yueqiu, your aim is to find a Small World suitable for your race to live, right?" Xingyin interrupted Ling Feng: "Follow me, I promise you will have a Small World to settle your race, how about that?"

A flash of joy passed over Ling Feng’s face: "Really... May I ask what you need me to do?"

Lord Xingyin said: "Your Spiritual Perception is powerful, even able to sense my breath. I need you to help me complete a task. Once this task is completed, I will fulfill my promise, how about it?"

Ling Feng thought for a moment and asked: "Lord Xingyin, may I ask what task it is?"

Xingyin turned his hand, and a golden scale appeared in his palm. Upon seeing this scale, Ling Feng’s heartbeat even stopped for a moment.
