Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 290 - 299: Outbreak of Civil Strife

Lin Feng looked at the armor in his hand and said, "Why don’t you go ask your father yourself? It’s truly peculiar that the daughter of the Grand General is mingling amongst men!"

"What did you say? Do you believe I won’t reveal your identity right now and have you wanted throughout the city?" Luo Lin was instantly furious, not expecting this kid to dare ignore her.

"Is there something wrong with your head? Since your father already knows my identity, why hasn’t he captured me? You can try and see if anyone believes you. For your information, the warrant against me has long been canceled," Lin Feng said.

Lin Feng was feeling particularly pleased at this moment, finally getting back at this girl since she fooled him the last time. He had decided then that he would definitely return the favor.

"Missy here won’t fall for your tricks. Lin Feng, just you wait, you’ll regret it when you cross me." After saying this, Luo Lin walked away without bothering with Lin Feng.

At this moment, the Prime Minister’s Mansion was in uproar. Ying Wanxiong, having received the news of the deaths of the three tributors, was pacing back and forth with a livid expression.

"Yuwen the Dog, you dare to kill my men for a yellow-haired kid. I intended to let you enjoy a little more peace, but since you’re pushing me, don’t blame me for being discourteous."

Subsequently, Ying Wanxiong entered a secret chamber, where a man in black was calmly absorbing Star Power.

Ying Wanxiong said respectfully, "Envoy, something terrible has happened. My three tributors have all been slaughtered by Yuwen the Dog’s men. My identity might be exposed. Shouldn’t we take the initiative to attack?"

The man in black, upon hearing this, immediately rebuked, "Ying Wanxiong, you fool! You’ve caused the Empire to lose three masters, and you have the nerve to tell me your identity’s exposed. You irritate me too!"

"Please calm down, Envoy. I will incite chaos in the Imperial City, letting Yuwen the Dog know the consequences of offending me, Ying Wanxiong. At the same time, I request the Envoy to inform our lord that we should deploy our troops immediately, for this is the best opportunity," Ying Wanxiong said.

"Our lord has been ready for a long time. As soon as there’s chaos in the city, we’ll deploy troops immediately. But your actions are too disappointing, always hesitant. If the tributors hadn’t been killed, would you have kept delaying? It seems your years of comfort in the Celestial Dragon Empire have made you forget your responsibilities." The envoy’s voice was ice-cold as he spoke.

"Ying Wanxiong is loyal to our lord, only delaying because the time wasn’t right. Please, Envoy, observe clearly." Ying Wanxiong responded immediately.

Ying Wanxiong felt quite helpless at this moment. Indeed, he had lived a carefree life over the years, being second to none, a feeling anyone would be reluctant to give up, leading to his delay over the years. Otherwise, the Celestial Dragon Empire and the Sea Dragon Empire might have already clashed.

"It’s good that you understand! I will return to take charge. Make sure to cause chaos in the entire Imperial City, so that Yuwen the Dog will definitely assign Luo Ping to suppress it. Then, without him leading the army, our Sea Dragon Empire’s million-strong force can easily break through their defenses and take the city directly," the envoy said.

"I will do my best to complete the task. Please rest assured, Envoy. I believe our Sea Dragon Empire’s army will soon be here."

The envoy glanced at Ying Wanxiong before leaving the secret chamber. Ying Wanxiong said, "To be able to kill Elder Yan and his three men, aside from Wang the Dog and Luo Ping from Yuwen Qingkuang’s Mansion, no one else in the Imperial City has such power. Just you wait!"

Then he exited the secret chamber and shouted in the hall, "Someone, come!" Immediately, two guards came in from outside.

Ying Wanxiong took out a purple token from his bosom and said, "Take my token and inform the Minister of the Ministry of War, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Generals Liu Wang and Wang Er that it is time to act. They must notify everyone to initiate rebellions everywhere inside and outside the Imperial City, ensuring chaos throughout Celestial Dragon Country."

"Understood!" The two guards left immediately. Ying Wanxiong then said, "This place is no longer safe; I must leave as well."

...

Lin Feng returned to the resting room, opened the door, and saw Meng Ji meditating nearby. He placed the armor on the table and smiled, "Do you need to do this as well?"

"You’re back. How is Wei Qun? Has he passed the test?" Meng Ji smiled, not answering Lin Feng’s question.

"He passed. The boy didn’t disappoint me. I think Ying Wanxiong, that old dog, should know by now that his three tributors were killed, and is likely to take action," Lin Feng smiled.

"This armor is nice. How about trying it on, Lin Feng?" Meng Ji responded evasively.

Lin Feng glanced at Meng Ji, who had already removed her veil. In front of Lin Feng, she didn’t need to hide her beauty, which made it easier for Lin Feng to fall for her.

Every time Lin Feng saw Meng Ji, he felt amazed, but a sense of helplessness lingered in his heart. It wasn’t that he disliked seeing Meng Ji’s appearance; he feared that her beauty might cause him to lose control and do something wrong.

"Meng Ji, could you please put on your veil? You’re making it easy for me to commit a crime!" Lin Feng said.

"I want you to commit a crime. When we’re alone, I hope you’ll call me Xuan’Er. This name belongs to you." Meng Ji’s voice was gentle, and her amorous eyes made one irresistibly want to hold her close.

"Xuan’Er? It’s a lovely name, but I’m not daring enough to call it yet. Meng Ji seems more appropriate! Please step out while I try on the armor to see if it fits," Lin Feng said.

Meng Ji rolled her eyes at Lin Feng and said, "Why should I go out? You’ll be my husband in the future, so why can’t I see your body? Of course, if you want to see mine, I’ll gladly show you now. Would you like that?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng felt a chill down his spine. This witch was unreasonably casual, daring to say such things. He was utterly convinced by her boldness.

"I’d better not. I’m afraid after seeing your body, you’ll devour me. Since you’re not going out, suit yourself. Anyway, I don’t need to undress completely to try on the armor," Lin Feng said, removing his outerwear.

Meng Ji stared intently at Lin Feng, "Wait a minute, what’s going on with your back?" Meng Ji suddenly said.

She noticed Lin Feng’s back glowing faintly gold, visible through his clothes due to her cultivation level.

"It’s nothing, don’t make a fuss!" Lin Feng said, preparing to put on the armor.

"Hold on, let me see!" Meng Ji said, stepping in front of Lin Feng and tearing his shirt to reveal his back.

"What... what are you doing? Aren’t you being a bit forward?" Lin Feng joked.

"You wish! Do you think I’m that easy? Even if you’re willing, I might not agree. Why do you have the totem of a Flying Magical Beast on your back?" Meng Ji asked.

"Oh, that? It’s my little brother. He’s currently breaking through the King Tier. Don’t be so surprised," Lin Feng said, taking out an undershirt from his Storage Ring.

"Your little brother? Are you saying this King Tier Flying Magical Beast has signed a Soul Contract with you?" Meng Ji asked.

"Indeed, and here’s another one. If you don’t believe it, take a look!" Lin Feng showed her the image of the Blood Shadow Frenzied Lion on his arm.

"My goodness, how is this possible, this..."
