Chapter 155: G.o.d of War Feng Chaoyang Part 2

What a nice dual-play of a red face and a white face echoing one another…’ Feng Ling coldly smiled in secret, raised his hand and said, “Don’t be too emotional Old General Lin.” He turned around, using his eyes to point at the middle aged man who had always closely followed him, “It is evidently this gentleman’s fault for bringing the bladed weapon inside the palace, but what business does he has with me, Feng Ling? Actually he isn’t my attendant, but just a person who follows behind me and protects my safety. Basically, he won’t follow my commands. Even if I were to ask him to leave he will not do it. If you feel that he has broken any of your rules, then you may arrest him, I will absolutely ignore it, because it’s evidently none of my business. But, I will offer you a bit of advice, if this gentleman really wanted to kill any person here, he won’t even need to use any bladed weapon.”

Lin Kuang laughed loudly as he sneered, “Hahahaha… You can really make such a ridiculous excuse. I didn’t expect that the magnificent Crown Prince of Gale Nation, in order to avoid guilt, would actually not hesitate to…”

“Shut up!” Long Yin suddenly yelled aloud, causing Lin Kuang to be shocked as he quivered. He slowly reseated himself, his face somehow cloudy and gloomy, finally he adopted to a grave expression. Looking at the middle aged man, he asked, “Your distinguished self, are you the famous G.o.d of War—Feng Chaoyang!?”

Long Yin knew very well that this was absolutely not some simple person, but he had yet to guess that it was Feng Chaoyang. Because he stayed behind and to take care of the matters inside the Imperial Palace of the Gale Nation to thoroughly protect the safety of the royal family, aside from cooperating to bring the Cursed Woman under control, he had never left the Gale Nation according to the rumors. Moreover, Feng Chaoyang’s age was already close to sixty, but this person only seemed a little more than fifty years, the age doesn’t match. But based on Feng Ling’s statements, he could not help but think of the name that caused him to be appalled.

Feng Chaoyang… These three words were like three claps of thunder, causing all the officials inside the hall to be frightened stiff. These three words bore a heavy weight, no one would dare to have any doubts because it represented a legend of the human race, a G.o.d comparable with to a real G.o.d. In an instant, the entire Flying Dragon Hall became awfully silent, all eyes were terrified as they focused on the middle aged man. The breaths of three old figures hidden on top of the roof became heavier. Lin Kuang was intimidated as he was now covered in cold sweat, the name Feng Chaoyang frightened his heart as he almost jumped out due to fear. If they really angered the G.o.d of War, the outcome would be unbearable, yet also irresistible.

Feng Ling observed the reactions of all the people around, the corners of his lips hooked up, he smiled and said, “Your Majesty’s vision is like a torch, this man is indeed our Gale Nations’s hero Feng Chaoyang. He is also a great benefactor of my Feng family for many generations now, n.o.body has ever restricted his freedom. If Old General Lin feels that he has broken a rule by bringing in a bladed weapon, you can command your people to arrest him, Feng Ling will absolutely not interfere.”

After obtaining an affirmative answer, more than ten people inside the hall had their hearts throbbing faster by multiple times. No one would ever doubt that, based on Feng Chaoyang’s ability, he would be able to kill anyone inside the palace with no effort at all, the layers of security were just merely for display. The few G.o.ds within the Heavenly Star Continent were rebellious as they were able to get the severed head of the general among the millions of an army as easy as walking and eating. And to make such achievement, generally they had to have a clear mind without greed, wholeheartedly devoted to martial arts, gave endless efforts, with numerous chances and luck to obtain such results. They basically were not in the mood to meddle with imperial affairs, Chu Cangming, Wu Qiaocui, Cang Lan, and the Snow Woman were all like that, yet Feng Chaoyang was half an exception. After he became a G.o.d, he resolutely came to the royal family of Gale Nation. Fortunately his aim was to protect and not to follow orders, or else Tian Long might not have existed until this day.

The corners of Lin Kuang’s mouth moved, yet no words came out. If he had known beforehand that he was the G.o.d of War of the Gale Nation, protector G.o.d Feng Chaoyang, even if he had ten guts he would never have dared to use this aspect to embarra.s.s Feng Ling, thereby exposing their mistakes. His extreme regret had made his intestines turned green.

Luckily, it was just probing, they had not really set out to arrest him, or else the only outcome would be blood splashed all over the Flying Dragon Hall, maybe the first blow would be aimed at Lin Kuang. Lin Kuang immediately kept silent, holding it until his face turned black and red, to suffer in silence was better than suffering from a murderous attack. The opponent was Feng Chaoyang, he had the qualification to make anybody tremble with fear and to obediently admit their defeat.

Ye Nu personally stood out to smooth things over as he said, “The reputation of the G.o.d of War is like a clap of thunder in one’s ears. According to the legend, the blade never leaves his side, how can a very distinguished and special person be restricted by the rules of the mundane world? Your Majesty, I have an unfavorable request, I hope to ask for the special favor of granting the G.o.d of War the privilege of not needing to abide the rule of unloading weapons inside the palace to show our respect.”

Long Yin nodded his head promptly and said, “Old General Ye, you words are exactly what I intended. Crown Prince Feng, Hero Feng, a while ago my officials might have offended…”

“It’s nothing.” Feng Ling voluntarily waved his hand, “There must be some confusions due to old age. A moment, he may say that he wasn’t afraid of anything, in another moment he is frightened and does not know what to say. I will not waste my effort to argue with this kind of person. Your Majesty, Feng Ling will not waste my precious time in Tian Long Nation, I hope that I can go ahead and visit the Ye Family first. My father has always said that General Ye is similarly brave and skillful, worthy to be called a son of Ye. If he was to go to the battlefield this time, he must possess a similar courage as Old General Ye during the old days. Such a great hero, Feng Ling must see. Moreover, I’ve heard General Ye’s son was also an outstanding young talent, that he also possesses the t.i.tles such as Tian Long Number One Gifted Scholar, Number One Outstanding Talent, and Number One Amazing Physician are what I’ve heard around the Tian Long City. The rumors about the son of Ye Family say that he’s like some celestial being, Feng Ling looks forward to it and can’t wait to meet him in person.”

Long Yin chuckled and said, “Crown Prince Feng you might be disappointed now, the son of the Ye Family is indeed an incomparable genius, but now he has an important matter to attend to so he needed to head South. He will only be back after a month.”

Feng Ling felt disappointed upon hearing these words, and he regretfully said, “In that case, Feng Ling will just visit General Ye and Madame Ye. Feng Ling will certainly regret it if he isn’t able to visit the Ye Family.”

Long Yin nodded his head, facing Ye Nu he said, “Old General Ye.”

Ye Nu knew the meaning, he stood up and said, “Crown Prince Feng, if you please.”

Feng Ling followed behind Ye Nu with Feng Chaoyang following like a shadow without a word. Long Yin, with a heavy face and his brows tightly knitted together, concentrated his eyes to think deeply.

No wonder he dared to come alone, he had Feng Chaoyang’s protection. But why would Feng Lie allow Feng Chaoyang to follow him here? If the reason was just as simple as what Feng Ling had mentioned, then it should not be like that. The reason the Gale Nation would dispatch the Crown Prince to visit was surely not that simple.

Feng Ling was praising Ye Nu all along the way, Ye Nu only had an ordinary expression, sometimes answering him with a few words. Feng Ling did not mind, his expression was still the same. Ye Nu walking in front, secretly sighing in his mind… He was deserving of the t.i.tle of Gale Nation’s crown prince, he absolutely was not an ordinary character. Judging solely by his courage and self-restraint efforts, no ordinary person would be able to reach his standard. Furthermore, the style of his speech, the manner, as well as the expression, were actually somewhat similar to Ye Wuchen.

The Ye Residence.

Since he entered through the gate, Feng Ling’s eyes had meticulously swept through every corner, as if delicately observing every corner of this place down to the smallest detail. This time when he mentioned the visit to the Ye residence, his main reason was to find out more about the Ye Family. If Tian Long was to meet the Gale Nation in a battlefield, the one that they should be afraid of would be the generals of the Ye Family. The current emperor, Feng Lie of the Gale Nation, had crossed swords with Ye Nu and Ye Wei numerous times during the battle, fully aware of the strength of the Ye military troops. They could only do their utmost to get closer to their enemy, to be able to minimize the casualties. Of course, it would merely be injuries and deaths, and not the possibility of failure after the twenty years of recovery and preparation in all aspects. They believe that even with the help of Kui Shui Nation and Cang Lan Nation, they could not possibly be defeated. They only need to focus on minimizing the casualties and losses.

Ye Wei was summoned to the front courtyard, at seeing Feng Ling, he was puzzled and asked, “This special guest is?”

“He is the Crown Prince of the Gale Nation.” Ye Nu said plainly.

“Nice to meet you General Ye. General Ye’s reputation, as I’ve heard it from the Gale Nation, is like a thunder piercing the ears” Feng Ling said gently.

Feng Ling’s extraordinary att.i.tude made Ye Wei feel that he was not just an ordinary person of character, upon hearing the name he was surprised, “So it’s actually Crown Prince Feng, I really don’t deserve such praise. Please come inside and have a seat.”

Feng Ling waved his hand and said, “No, to be able to meet General Ye, I’m already satisfied. I wouldn’t want to trouble you further. Next, I would like to boldly ask General Ye to bring me to see your Ye military troops, allowing me to witness the true master of courage.”

Ye Wei creased his brows, this statement is clearly intended to scout the current military force of the Tian Long Nation. He looked at Ye Nu. Ye Nu nodded at him, “You can bring Crown Prince Feng there, this was also His Majesty’s idea.”

Ye Wei responded at once, knowing that the army camp had already made the preparations, thus he nodded and said, “Alright, please come with me Crown Prince Feng.”

“Remember, by all means do not offend the person behind him… He is Feng Chaoyang.” The moment he turned around, Ye Nu had quickly whispered in Ye Wei’s ears. Ye Wei was shocked, as he looked at the ordinary person in the green suit carrying a huge blade on his back. For a moment, he could not conceal his startled face.

At this time, Feng Ling happened to be looking at the wonderful figure approaching them from a distance… Ye Shuiyao was coming out from Ye Wuchen’s small courtyard and was heading towards her own courtyard. Ever since Ye Wuchen had left, Ye Shuiyao who sometines step out of her own room and head towards his courtyard because she wanted to seek the traces of his smell.

If she was still the same one who confined herself to her own world, the old Ye Shuiyao who refused to go out, then everything would be what Ye Wuchen expected. The Lin Family would be entrapped until they could no longer explain themselves, until they finally collapsed, Long Yin would be dead from a sudden attack of his serious illness, Long Zhengyang would succeed the throne, the Gale Nation would not ignore Tian Long Nation for three years as they knew that the clan of the Southern Empire was involved with the Ye Family. These three years would be sufficient for him to setup a huge trap… But the appearance of Ye Shuiyao had forcibly cut off all of his plans in one single moment and also brought a huge change on his life path, from protecting, to moving towards trampling the whole world.

Sometimes, the most terrible things were not weapons, but the femme fatale.

Feng Ling’s expression became sluggish, he completely lost his perfectly composed state of mind that he used to face the Emperor of Tian Long and the numerous officials. In his eyes was the figure of an immortal-like being and nothing else. In an obscure world of blank s.p.a.ce, he could only hear his violent heart beat. All his life this was the first time that he had experience the feeling of losing his mind.

“She is a fairy or a demon of temptation of my life…” Within his heart, he mumbled these words.

The figure of an immortal did not come near him. Ye Shuiyao felt that she was being stared at, so she coldly shot a glance at him, then withdrew her gaze and changed her direction to head towards her own courtyard. Feng Ling’s gaze followed her until her figure disappeared in his line of sight, yet he had not regained his state of mind.

“Crown Prince Feng, let’s go.” Ye Wei shouted with a heavy voice, he knew his daughter’s charm very well and did not feel anything peculiar with Feng Ling’s reaction.

Feng Ling felt like being woken up from a dream, his eyes flickered and he impatiently asked, “General Ye, who was that woman I saw a while ago?”

“It’s my daughter.” answered Ye Wei with an emotionless face.

Feng Ling’s original simple and elegant smile this time looked somehow different, his mind was full of Ye Shuiyao’s figure, impossible to get rid of that he even lost his intention to visit the army camp. “So it’s General Ye’s daughter, really an outstanding beauty, a fairy that transformed into human. My Gale Nation’s beauties are somehow bleak compared to your nation’s beauties. What is her good name?”

Ye Wei wrinkled his brows as he said, “Crown Prince Feng, let’s just head out to the army camp first.”

Feng Ling realized he was forgetting his manners, laughed as he was mocking himself but did not ask further. He stepped aside and said, “Please go ahead, General Ye.”

Heading out of the Ye residence, he could not help but glance back once more to the courtyard gate where Ye Shuiyao’s figure had disappeared. He did not see the figure that made him lose his mind so he disappointedly departed.

Feng Chaoyang was following him from behind all along, just like a pile of wood. One of the commitments he vowed was to protect the Gale Nation throughout his life, but he only protected, the rest, he did not care about, and he also did not intend to care about them.
