Chapter 941: Fulfilling the Promise

When the young master of the Yao family heard what the old man surnamed Ni said, his tears flowed down uncontrollably, and he said in a trembling voice: "Second Grandpa, please don't say that. No matter what, I will definitely If you bring it back to the family, my great grandfather will be able to rescue you."

The old man surnamed Ni looked at the young man kindly, gently stroked his hair, and said: "No matter how great my eldest brother is, he is still a human being and not a god after all. I am an old man who knows best. You don't want to either It’s so sad that I feel relieved to be able to bring you here.”

"No, no, I want my second grandpa to be well, and I want my second grandpa to watch me grow up."

The young man cried extremely sadly, his voice was trembling and he was out of breath when he spoke. Zuo Feng was not used to this kind of scene, so he quietly stepped away, leaving space for the two of them to communicate alone.

He could somewhat understand the young man's mood. When he tried his best to rescue Teng Xiaoyun from the enemy, he found that Teng Xiaoyun was deeply poisoned. His mood at that time was similar to that of the young man.

It was precisely because he understood the young man's pain at this time that he did not interrupt or urge him to hurry up, but walked silently to the big tree beside him. In fact, walking so far away, for Zuo Feng's keen hearing, he could still hear the conversation between the two if he wanted to.

However, once Zuo Feng arrives, he must seize the time to adjust his breath and restore himself to the best condition. In addition, although he takes the antidote pills, he still needs to circulate them all to avoid even a trace of poison remaining in the body. To do this well, he must concentrate and not be distracted at all.

While running his spiritual power, Zuo Feng discovered that the detoxification substances released by the pill seemed to be able to stay in the body for a long time. This means that in a short period of time, even if you encounter the so-called "falling star fog" again, there is no need to worry at all, as the remaining substances in the body will continue to be detoxified.

While the technique was running, Zuo Feng also calmed down his mind. It wasn't until he heard footsteps approaching slowly that he opened his eyes. The person who came was none other than the old man surnamed Ni. At this time, the old man looked much weaker than before. His cultivation had also dropped from the first level of the Qi Sensing Stage to the peak of the Muscle Tempering Stage, and his breath seemed to be slowly declining.

Seeing the old man's condition at this time, Zuo Feng also guessed that the old man's aura would probably keep falling until the aura finally dissipated and he would reach the end of his life.

The old man noticed the sadness flashing in Zuo Feng's eyes as he looked at him. He smiled slightly and said, "Little brother, seeing that you are young but have extraordinary knowledge, you should have guessed that I don't have much time left."

Zuo Feng did not hide it, and Ershi nodded directly.

The old man smiled slightly and sat down next to Zuo Feng, and said casually: "Little brother probably knows who I am now, but I don't know much about little brother. I wonder if it's convenient for you to tell me about this checkmate." The old man.”

Zuo Feng turned his head and glanced at the old man surnamed Ni, and then looked into the distance. When he saw that the young man was always standing in the distance with no intention of coming over, he immediately understood that the old man was thinking about himself. Presumably, the old man also saw that he had some secrets in his body. Of course, this secret could not be known to outsiders because he was not going to die soon, so he came to inquire alone.

After pondering for a while, Zuo Feng said: "The previous name has no meaning to you. Ever since I set foot on the land of Xuanwu, my name has been Shen Feng, and I am an alchemist."

"Shen Feng"

The old man muttered to himself and repeated it. Suddenly he suddenly raised his head and looked at Zuo Feng, with a trace of shock and confusion in his eyes.

"Are you the one who won the competition to select medicine in Linshan County? But you shouldn't..."

Zuo Feng didn't expect that his name would become so famous now. It didn't take long for the Linshan County City Competition to select medicines to end, and he didn't expect that it would have spread here. However, he also knew that his worries were indeed correct. It was obviously someone who deliberately made his name known.

The person who spread his name would never have good intentions, and Zuo Feng already had several candidates in mind for those who had the strength to do this.

Looking at the old man with a wry smile, Zuo Feng said directly without hiding it: "It is true that some accidents occurred after leaving Linshan County. The team escorting me was attacked. I was lucky enough to escape. I won't know what happened next. Too clear."

After a slight pause, Zuo Feng continued: "Senior, you should have heard about what happened to me in Linshan County. Some people don't want me to reach the imperial capital alive, so I must be careful everywhere, and I don't dare to interact with any force casually. I think the seniors should understand me very well if I come into contact with them, even if they are forces belonging to the empire.”

After the old man listened, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he said coldly: "Today's Xuanwu Empire is no longer the empire that survived in the cracks of other empires, and it no longer has the heart to unite. You There is nothing wrong with your choice.

I didn't expect that the person I accidentally saved here would be the up-and-coming Shen Feng from Linshan County. I really don't know how to sigh. "

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, as if he couldn't let go of some sadness in his heart. He paused for a long time before continuing: "I have already seen how good my little brother is, but I didn't expect that you are that Shen Feng. But You are in no less trouble than us, and I don’t know whether it is right or wrong to ask you this time.

But now I completely believe you. No one will use Shen Feng's name indiscriminately at this time. This is enough to prove that you are indeed honest with me. "

Zuo Feng smiled slightly and said: "Senior, don't worry too much. Not many people really know me in the Xuanwu Empire, so it's okay to be careful. Since I promised you, I will try my best to protect your young master. It’s safe. If it’s not possible, I’ll keep him safe.”

Zuo Feng could understand the conflict in the old man's heart. He originally hoped to drag someone to bring his daughter to a safe place, but he did not expect that Zuo Feng would be in greater trouble here. If he had a choice now, he would naturally not leave his young master in Zuo Feng's hands, but now he didn't have any other better choice.

The old man surnamed Ni looked at Zuo Feng. He didn't know whether he was moved by his sincerity or whether he really had confidence in Zuo Feng. Anyway, he nodded lightly in the end.

"Then I'm begging you, old man, to send the young master away for me no matter what. He is very important to the Yao family, and there must be no mistakes. There are more than 80 people coming out this time, including If one person rebels, everyone else, including me, will be ruined. I hope you will protect the young master for the sake of me saving you, old man. "

When the old man said this, he turned over and one of his legs was bent and touched the ground. Zuo Feng knew that the old man was going to give a big salute at this time. How could he accept such a big salute from the other party? He hurriedly stretched out his hand to support the old man.

With the old man's cultivation and strength, he believed that if he wanted to salute, he would not be able to stop him even if he didn't want to. But when Zuo Feng grabbed him with both hands, his body couldn't forcefully kneel down. This time, the old man was surprised. Instead of a look of shock, there was a hint of joy and excitement in his eyes.

He didn't know much about Zuo Feng, and he didn't know much about Zuo Feng's strength. On the surface, it seemed that the young man's cultivation should be at the peak of the third level of the tempering stage. It is extremely rare to meet someone with this kind of cultivation at such a young age, even in a big family, so he still has some confidence in Zuo Feng.

But as soon as he knelt down, the young man in front of him was able to stop him purely by relying on his strength. While he was completely caught off guard, he also saw clearly part of Zuo Feng's strength. Seeing that Zuo Feng had such strong physical strength, he felt a little more relieved, and at the same time he felt more assured about the safety of his young master.

"No matter what, old man, I sincerely thank you. Maybe I shouldn't say this, but if you can send the young master back safely, our Yao family will definitely give you a generous reward."

Zuo Feng knew that sending the young master of the Yao family back safely would inevitably involve taking a huge risk. Why take this risk if he was just seeking benefits. However, Zuo Feng did not refuse, because it was a bit hypocritical. Even if the Yao family owed him a favor, this favor might be of great use to him in the future.

With a slight nod, Zuo Feng said: "Old senior, I won't say any more. I am not willing to make promises lightly, but as long as I make a promise, I will do my best to complete it even if I go through fire and water."

The old man surnamed Ni saw Zuo Feng's firm gaze, and his words were also genuine. He finally exhaled a long breath, then smiled and clasped his fists, and said: "Then let's say goodbye, and I will continue to move forward. I don’t care what route you take, my young master has a map, you can decide on your own.”

After saying that, the old man turned around and walked forward with a few steps. The speed at this time was much slower than when he just arrived here. Going back to that time, he still had two people with him, but now he is still not very fast on the road alone, and it is foreseeable that he may not be able to go very far.

Zuo Feng pointed at the old man's back, cupped his fists and saluted. Although the old man did not look back with this small movement, he had already noticed that there was a smile on his wrinkled face. This smile was full of satisfaction. It was impossible to tell that this was a person who went to death calmly. The expression left by the person.

The young master saw the old man leaving from a distance and subconsciously wanted to chase him. However, after taking a few steps, he seemed to remember something and immediately stopped.

Zuo Feng watched the old man go further and further away, disappearing from sight, and then he walked towards the young master. In fact, the impression this young master gave me was not very good. He looked like a young master in a big family who lacked experience and was used to being pampered. However, since he had promised the old man, he must try his best to fulfill his promise.
