Chapter 460 My Dao is the Dao of Staying Indoors
Ming Hua’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she carefully observed the man before her. Lin Feng looked far too young. Handsome to an almost unreal degree.
His posture was relaxed, his gaze calm, and his aura restrained to the point that he almost resembled an ordinary mortal.
Yet hidden beneath that ordinary appearance was something that made even her soul instinctively tremble. It was danger. A danger so profound that her instincts screamed at her to stay cautious.
The more she looked at him, the more unfathomable he became.
Especially after what had happened earlier.
Ming Hua still clearly remembered the horrifying moment when Lin Feng’s gaze had casually swept across her body.
For a brief instant, she had felt completely exposed before him. Not merely physically, but spiritually as well.
Every hidden secret, every concealed thought, every trump card she possessed and it all felt as though it had been thoroughly seen through.
One had to know that Ming Hua carried more than a dozen protective treasures on her person.
Some shielded the soul, others concealed heavenly secrets, while several were personally bestowed by ancient elders of the Ming Clan.
Even peak experts would find it difficult to probe her secrets through those defenses. Yet before Lin Feng, all those treasures had felt utterly useless. Like thin sheets of paper before a blazing inferno.
Not a single one reacted. Not a single one managed to block him. The thought alone caused cold sweat to form along Ming Hua’s back. What kind of existence was this man exactly?
Even the ancient monsters hidden within the Ming Clan might not possess such terrifying methods. For the first time in many years, she felt the situation slipping beyond her control.
Ming Hua tried every trick in the book, but in the end, Lin Feng simply would not budge. She had attempted reason, speaking of the ancient ties and influence of the Ming Clan.
She had subtly threatened him with the possible consequences of offending a power that had existed for countless millions of years.
She had even lowered herself enough to flatter him and praise his mysterious strength. Yet none of it worked. Lin Feng remained as unmoving as an eternal mountain.
It was easier to move the heavens themselves than to make Lin Feng change his mind once he had already decided on something.
In his opinion, Ming Ye and Old Xi were vile people who deserved no mercy. Allowing them freedom again would merely give them another chance to spread suffering and evil across the world.
Ming Hua could clearly sense that this was not arrogance or impulsiveness on Lin Feng’s part. He genuinely believed what he said. That was what made him even more terrifying.
The man was impossible to predict. Even now, Ming Hua still could not completely understand him.
Sometimes he acted carefree and casual, almost like an ordinary young master. Yet at other times, he gave off an invisible pressure so overwhelming that even her soul trembled slightly in fear.
And then there was that terrifying beast in the courtyard. Just recalling the existence of the little chicken made her scalp tingle. She still remembered the horrifying sensation from earlier.
It felt as though she had stared into an endless sun capable of burning worlds into ash.
If she had truly used her spiritual sense recklessly at that moment, Ming Hua suspected her soul might have been heavily injured instantly. What kind of existence was Lin Feng keeping by his side?
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became.
An hour later, Ming Hua finally understood that there was no point in staying any longer. Nothing she said would change Lin Feng’s decision.
"Thank you for your time, Master Lin Feng. I shall take my leave. Good night."
Her voice remained calm and elegant as she bowed deeply. Her long black hair cascaded down like silk while her graceful figure bent respectfully before him. Lin Feng merely nodded casually.
"Safe travels."
That simple response somehow made Ming Hua feel even more complicated emotions. There was no hostility in his tone, nor any fear toward the Ming Clan.
It was as though he simply did not care whether they were an ancient clan or not. Ming Hua slowly exited the courtyard.
The instant she stepped outside the residence, her expression changed slightly.
The calm composure she maintained earlier loosened just a little as she released a quiet breath she did not even realize she had been holding in.
A moment later, her figure blurred and vanished into the night sky.
Whoosh!
She moved across Clear Moon City like a phantom before finally arriving at the massive flying boat of the Ming Clan hovering silently out of sight.
Ancient runes glowed faintly across its surface while several guards stood watch respectfully.
"Master!" Her old servant immediately stepped forward and bowed the moment he saw her return.
However, Ming Hua did not answer immediately.
Her beautiful brows were tightly furrowed as she stood there quietly, lost in thought. The night wind gently swayed her robes while the moonlight illuminated her flawless face.
The old servant did not dare disturb her.
He had served Ming Hua for many years and understood her personality well. Whenever she became this silent, it meant she was considering something extremely important.
And indeed, Ming Hua was currently debating what exactly she should report back to the clan.
If she told them the truth bluntly, some of the clan elders would definitely become furious. Ming Ye was still an important member of the Ming Clan despite all his faults.
The clan’s pride alone might push certain hot-headed elders into retaliation. But if she downplayed the danger Lin Feng posed, the consequences could become catastrophic.
That man... was simply too mysterious.
Not only was his personal strength unfathomable, but even the terrifying beast beside him seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth.
Ming Hua had a strong feeling that if the Ming Clan truly provoked Lin Feng recklessly, the outcome might be far worse than they imagined.
