The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1781 - 1778: The Undercover Identity

"How could this happen?" Ximen Shuang said, somewhat incredulously.

Ling Feng sighed and said, "The truth is just like that. The Star Core Power of this planet is no longer sufficient to support all living things on it. So, it could be tomorrow, or it could be next year, but this planet will be completely obliterated and cease to exist!"

Ximen Shuang looked at the surrounding red flowers and green trees, the birds flying, and the fish swimming. A hint of regret appeared on her face, "That’s truly a pity. Will these lives also completely disappear with the planet?"

Ling Feng nodded. Unless they are those who have Transcended the Ordinary and Become a Saint, ordinary life can only live and die with the planet; this is the law of nature.

As someone from the Ancient Ruins, Ximen Shuang also knew this was the inevitable process for an abandoned planet. Besides regret, there were no other emotions on her face.

"Shuang Er, how many days’ journey do we have left to return to the Ximen Family?" Ling Feng asked curiously.

"With the current route, it will take at least ten more days!" A trace of excitement flashed across Ximen Shuang’s face. She couldn’t help but cover her chest. In ten days, she would be able to return to her family again.

"Can you tell me what happened along the way?" Ling Feng stood by Ximen Shuang’s side and asked, "I assume you spent a lot of time and effort to obtain the Ghost Spirit Grass, and surely you encountered many difficulties, right?"

Ximen Shuang’s face turned a little red, "Actually, I didn’t face too many difficulties. I initially only knew that on the edge of the Ancient Ruins, there’s a Small World called the Abyss of the Netherworld, where the Ghost Spirit Grass might exist, so we set out!"

"But halfway there, we heard that the Small World of the Abyss of the Netherworld had been completely obliterated!" Ximen Shuang showed a bitter smile, "In a helpless situation, we could only go to the nearest black market from the Abyss of the Netherworld. We ended up spending a huge amount to buy this Ghost Spirit Grass!"

"Honestly, I didn’t expect to get the Ghost Spirit Grass so easily!" Ximen Shuang exhaled and said, "The moment I bought it, I even thought I was dreaming, but that’s the reality, nothing too thrilling."

"That’s luck as well!" Ling Feng mused.

At this moment, Ling Feng suddenly felt a fluctuation in the Heavenly Earth Vitality around him. Beams of light shot into the sky, encircling Ling Feng and Ximen Shuang.

"What’s happening?" Ximen Shuang instinctively hid behind Ling Feng.

Ling Feng also frowned. Could it be that this planet is starting to collapse? But it doesn’t quite feel like it.

"Ximen Shuang!" A deep voice came, and from the light beams walked out a man with a mask. His sharp gaze fixed on Ximen Shuang and Ling Feng.

"Who are you? This is your doing, right?" Ling Feng surveyed his surroundings and said, "Using a Formation to trap us here, it seems you’ve been prepared for some time!"

"This is between Ximen Shuang and me. You, a mere Mid Sky Realm guy, dare to meddle? You are simply courting death!" the masked man said coldly, "Get lost, and I may spare your life!"

Ling Feng’s lips curled into a mocking smile. He replied softly, "Spare my life? Do you really think you can defeat me? Moreover, I promised Miss Shuang Er that I would protect her. So... thinking you can make me leave with just a few words is merely daydreaming!"

Ximen Shuang’s face revealed a touched expression, "Big Brother Lei, how confident are you?"

Ling Feng patted Ximen Shuang’s hair and said, "Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, no one can harm you!"

"Arrogant words!" the masked man retorted coldly, "Are you forcing me to act against you?"

Ling Feng sighed, "At this point, how long do you intend to hide your identity? I’m really curious why you keep going after Ximen Shuang. If I’m not mistaken, you were the one who revealed Ximen Shuang’s whereabouts to Ximen Yan, right?"

Ximen Shuang’s eyes widened, "Big Brother Lei, you mean he’s the mole by my side?"

Ling Feng glanced at Ximen Shuang and said, "Of course, otherwise, how could there be a master from the Later Stage of the Firmament Realm waiting specifically for us here? Isn’t that right, Uncle Ximen Yu?"

"Uncle Ximen Yu? Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" Ximen Shuang exclaimed in surprise, "Big Brother Lei, what are you saying? How could the mole be Uncle Ximen Yu? Could it be..."

Ling Feng interrupted Ximen Shuang and intensely focused on the masked man, "Ximen Yu, are you still going to wear that ridiculous mask now?"

The masked man’s eyes revealed a vicious expression. After a long silence, he removed the mask, "How did you know I was the mole? I thought I was well disguised!"

When Ximen Shuang saw the true face of the masked man, it was as if she was struck by Lei Ji, completely stunned, "It’s really Uncle Ximen Yu. How could this be? How could Uncle Ximen Yu be the mole, and how could he want to harm me?"

Once the mask was removed, it was indeed Ximen Yu! However, the Ximen Yu now had none of his previous warm smile, but rather a venomous expression Ximen Shuang had never seen before!

Ling Feng chuckled and said, "What’s so hard to guess? Setting up a Formation here isn’t something that can be done quickly. As an Array Master, I’m quite familiar with this! So, the one who took the initiative to dock the airship on this planet is naturally the mole. Isn’t that right, Uncle Ximen Yu?"

Ximen Yu exhaled, "Didn’t expect I would expose myself over such a simple thing. Lei, you’re formidable, the most formidable young man I’ve ever seen!"

"Thanks for the compliment!" Ling Feng smiled slightly.

"Your future is limitless, but if you hang yourself on Ximen Shuang, don’t you think it’s a waste? Moreover, you still have a blood feud unavenged. Dying for Ximen Shuang, isn’t that not worth it?" Ximen Yu said blandly.

Ximen Shuang was still in a stupor. She couldn’t comprehend why the person she trusted the most would betray her and even want to kill her. Why!

Ling Feng thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, according to your words, it might be a loss! But then again, life is not business. The promises I make, I never go back on! Besides, Miss Shuang Er also promised to help me, so how could I just leave her now?"

Ximen Shuang looked up at Ling Feng in surprise, her eyes slightly red. Now, only Ling Feng could provide her with a sliver of warmth.
