Mainland Martial Arts

Chapter 482: Dividing the Troops into Three Groups

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves. Lin Feng and the other three instantly widened their eyes, their faces filled with shock.

"God's residence?!" Lin Feng muttered to himself, with a complex light flashing in his eyes, with shock, confusion, and a hint of expectation that was difficult to conceal, "Will there be any inheritance in there, or a way to become a god?" His voice was very low, but it seemed as if he was asking everyone present, and also as if he was asking himself.

For a moment, the four of them fell silent. The mysterious Divine Palace surfaced in their minds, imagining the endless treasures and astonishing inheritance that might exist within.

Xu Tian was the first to break the silence, his eyes flashing with excitement: "If we can obtain the inheritance of God, then our strength will advance by leaps and bounds, right?" His voice trembled slightly with excitement, as if he had already seen himself standing on top of the world.

Chen Xiner was a little worried. She bit her lower lip lightly, her eyes full of anxiety: "But, there must be many dangers there, and there are so many forces eyeing us covetously..." Her voice was soft, but with a hint of fear of unknown dangers.

Chen Yu nodded slightly, his expression solemn: "Miss, you are right, the risks involved cannot be underestimated." His voice was low and steady, with a calm analysis of the situation.

Just when they were debating whether to go or not, Hongze's voice rang out again: "Hey everyone, you are also the target of major forces." His voice was filled with a hint of anxious reminder, as if pouring a bucket of cold water on everyone immersed in fantasy.

Xu Tian was slightly stunned, then said: "Yes, Lin Feng, what Boss Hong said makes sense." A hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and the original excitement dimmed a little.

"It's inevitable. I think someone's heading our way." Lin Feng's face was solemn, slightly flushed by the wind and sand, but his eyes were sharp as an eagle's, piercing the dust and glancing vigilantly around. His voice was deep and powerful, carried steadily through the whistling wind, carrying a sense of time-honored composure and courage.

Upon hearing this, everyone's brows furrowed, their expressions instantly becoming solemn and tense. Chen Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, a flicker of doubt and vigilance in his eyes. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword at his waist, his knuckles turning slightly white from the force. He lowered his voice, a hint of uncertainty: "They probably don't know we're in Moyan Village yet, right?" In this perilous moment, every decision was a matter of life and death. He tried to find a respite from this unknown danger.

Chen Xin'er bit her lower lip gently, worry etched across her delicate features. Her eyes revealed a deep sense of unease. "They should already know. We're looking for General Li Hua in the city. The Li and Ding families already know about this." Her voice was soft but clear, ringing like a warning bell in everyone's ears. She knew full well that the Li and Ding families had a long-standing grudge against them and would not miss any opportunity for revenge. If this news leaked, their situation would become even more precarious.

A surge of anger suddenly surged on Xu Tian's face. He clenched his fists violently, his joints turning white from the force, veins popped out on his forehead, and his face was full of anger and unwillingness: "The Li and Ding families have cooperated with those forces in order to kill us." His voice was filled with strong hatred, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, as if he could see the ugly faces of the two families swaying before his eyes.

Lin Feng nodded slightly, his expression stern, his eyes revealing a clear insight into the situation: "As soon as we leave, they will go looking for the general." His voice was low and serious. He knew that General Li Hua was in a precarious situation at the moment. Those forces have always used any means to achieve their goals, and the general's safety was like a heavy stone weighing on his heart at the moment.

When Xu Tian heard this, he became extremely anxious. He took a big step forward, his eyes full of anxiety and determination: "No, we have to go back to Moyan Village and protect the general." His voice was urgent and resolute. In his heart, protecting the general was his unshirkable responsibility. Even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, he would never retreat.

Lin Feng raised his hand, signaling Xu Tian to calm down. He frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "Don't worry. Their main target is the God's Mansion. Even if they send someone now, they're either extremely powerful or just here to gather information about us." His voice was steady and calm, a sober analysis of the situation, trying to find a way out of this complex situation. In this crisis-ridden moment, a calm mind was their most powerful weapon.

Xu Tian's brow furrowed, a flicker of worry and self-blame in his eyes. "If the person coming here is extremely powerful, wouldn't we have put the general in danger?" His voice was filled with deep remorse, as if the general's safety was hanging by a thread, and he was powerless to change it. He clasped his hands tightly together, as if that would hold onto the fading hope.

Lin Feng turned his gaze to Hong Ze, a hint of expectation and earnestness in his eyes. "Boss Hong, would you be willing to do us a favor?" His voice was sincere and firm, with a hint of help. In this difficult moment, he knew that Hong Ze's help might be the key to turning the situation around.

Hong Ze was slightly startled, then he straightened his back, looked firm, and said without hesitation: "If you have anything to say, just tell me, just don't let me betray the Ming family." His voice was firm and powerful. Although he didn't know what Lin Feng wanted him to do, he believed that Lin Feng would not make things difficult for him. This trust was especially precious in this troubled time.

Lin Feng nodded slightly, his expression serious, his eyes revealing a firm determination. "We've come to Lingyuan City, and the God's Residence is northwest of Lingyuan City. Those forces will definitely not believe this coincidence. Boss Hong, get someone to spread the word that we've headed to the uninhabited area in the northwest to search for the God's Residence." His voice was clear and steady, every word revealing his plan. While this plan was risky, it might buy them valuable time and opportunity.

Chen Xiner nodded gently, her eyes gleaming with approval. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a relieved smile. "That's a good idea. Perhaps it can divert their attention." Her voice was gentle but powerful, filled with trust and support for Lin Feng. In her heart, every decision Lin Feng made was based on his considerations, and all she had to do was stand firmly by his side.
