Chapter 1881 - 1871: First Encounter with Shen Yunnuo
"I say, beauty, a gentleman uses his words, not his fists. If you keep making a scene like this, don’t blame me for taking action," Lin Zifeng said hastily.He just felt the woman’s power. She didn’t use all of it, fearing she might accidentally kill Lin Zifeng.
Lin Zifeng also didn’t want to exert all his elemental power to stop her; at most, he would just convert some of it into power to counter her.
"You despicable scoundrel, even if you get beaten to death, no one would pity you," the woman said, growing more and more furious. Luckily, she didn’t have the intention to kill Lin Zifeng, as her status in the Divine Sky Sect was not low.
She was, after all, the daughter of Shen Wuji, the Peak Master of Piaomiao Peak, the first peak among the seventy-two peaks of the Divine Sky Sect—Shen Yunnuo.
"I’m warning you, if you push me too far, I really will hit you." Lin Zifeng was so angry he was grinding his teeth, never having seen such an unreasonable woman.
"This camera, if you don’t want it, then I’ll take it." Lin Zifeng took out the small camera.
"You stole my camera!"
Shen Yunnuo glared and screamed.
"Who stole your camera? It clearly fell. I picked it up for you, yet you not only don’t appreciate the favor, but you also treat me like a scoundrel."
"I seem like a chicken (play on words: ’camera’ and ’chicken’ sound similar)"
Shen Yunnuo shouted, reaching out to grab it.
"Damn. Like whatever you love. Anyway, this thing you didn’t want is now mine." Lin Zifeng grabbed the camera, shoved it into his pocket, and strode towards the restaurant.
"Stop!"
Shen Yunnuo barked a command, stepping forward, placing her hand on Lin Zifeng’s shoulder.
"Give me back my camera!"
"You didn’t want it just now, and now you’re using such a barbaric way to snatch it back, doesn’t it seem unreasonable?" Lin Zifeng’s mouth twisted into a wry smile, utterly helpless.
"Fine, I’ll give you back the camera, but you have to kiss me. That deal shouldn’t be too bad for you, right? Besides, I found the camera, and you said yourself you didn’t want it, and now you resort to violence. No matter where you go to argue about this, I’m afraid you wouldn’t win, would you?" Lin Zifeng said with a grin.
"Rascal!"
Shen Yunnuo was infuriated, reaching out again to strike Lin Zifeng.
"Damn! You still want to fight for this, right?"
"To hell with being a lady. I can play the guy instead."
As she spoke, Shen Yunnuo closed in again, opening her delicate hands to grab Lin Zifeng by the neck, and reached with her other hand for the small camera he held. Lin Zifeng leaned back against a nearby Hummer, causing Shen Yunnuo to miss him and lunge towards him.
"Ah-ya~" Shen Yunnuo let out a small cry, lunging into his chest, and as a result, his two demon claws inadvertently wrapped around her slender waist, which startled Shen Yunnuo so much her mind went blank.
She knew the scoundrel, who seemed to be a demon, would definitely try to violate her first, so she instinctively raised her leg to kick him.
However, his reaction was almost as fast as hers. He clamped his legs and trapped her right leg tightly! For a moment, she found it hard to pull back her right leg~
This realization befuddled Shen Yunnuo. Being a genius-level cultivator in the Qi Dao Realm, she couldn’t even retrieve her right leg in front of him. What did this mean, that his power was significantly higher than hers?
"Hehe. Girl, are you planning to kiss me twice? Oh, it’s tough being handsome. People even dare to kiss me when I walk on the street. Heaven has indeed been too kind to me."
"Get lost!"
Shen Yunnuo raised her hand for a slap, but after it fell, Lin Zifeng tilted his head, neatly dodging it.
"You!"
Shen Yunnuo was so angry she could’ve exploded. She really wanted to kill this bastard in front of her!
"What do you mean ’you’? I didn’t force you. You’re the one who lunged at me. I was just being passive, wasn’t I?" Lin Zifeng smirked cheekily, feeling like a scoundrel.
Initially, he intended to return the small camera to her, hoping she’d owe him a favor. Little did he expect the girl to be so stubborn, and not only didn’t say "thank you," but even dared to hit him.
This indignation, Lin Zifeng found hard to swallow.
"Tell me, what’s your name! When I find you, I’m going to hack you to pieces!"
"Me? I’m Lin Tianfeng. If you don’t like me, remember my face now, you can come to find me anytime you want." Lin Zifeng gave her a false name.
"What sect do you belong to?" she asked through gritted teeth, knowing her opponent was exceptionally skilled.
"Haha, ever heard of the Divine Sky Sect? You know the biggest sect in Huzhou, the Divine Sky Sect? I’m with them. Now you know my background. Let’s see if you still dare bully me," Lin Zifeng boasted gleefully, not caring even if he revealed an affiliation with the Heavenly Gate; he would still be safe.
"Which peak are you from?"
"You know Cloud Finger Peak? I’m from there!" Lin Zifeng continued teasing her. After all, he’s not from the Divine Sky Sect. Spouting nonsense didn’t have much consequence.
"Cloud Finger Peak? How’s Shen Kong related to you?"
"Oh! You actually know my master? Shen Kong is my master. I haven’t seen him in a long time, do you know him?"
Lin Zifeng came to an advantageous point and quickly released Shen Yunnuo.
"Fine! I’ve remembered you. Don’t let me see you in the Divine Sky Sect!"
With that, Shen Yunnuo didn’t make more trouble for Lin Zifeng.
This left Lin Zifeng a little befuddled, like a monk who couldn’t figure it out.
"Hey! Girl, your camera~"
"Like your mother’s walls like! Roll back home and like there!"
Shen Yunnuo turned back, angrily cursed, and then slipped into a Land Rover, started the engine, and quickly left the scene...
"If you don’t like it, then fine, but why curse so rudely? Could it be that all people from the Divine Sky Sect have their manners eaten by dogs?" Lin Zifeng sneered. He knew the girl probably didn’t have a higher status in the Divine Sky Sect than Shen Kong, the Peak Master of Cloud Finger Peak, otherwise, she wouldn’t have let him off so easily, fleeing the scene like a mouse...
However, Lin Zifeng knew full well that the Peak Master of the Divine Sky Sect’s Tenth Peak, Shen Kong, was someone who died by his hand on Wolong Mountain! A master of the Sub-Saint Fourth Layer Heaven!
...
That day, Lin Zifeng finally found what he wanted at a cultivator hub at the foot of Huishan.
These cultivators were mostly from the civilian side. Essentially, the Divine Sky Sect held a recruitment competition at the foot of the mountain every month, though calling it recruitment was a bit misleading; it was mostly to recruit people to do miscellaneous chores in the Divine Sky Sect.
However, everyone understood deep down that civilians remained civilians. They couldn’t live the life of fame and fortune, nor hold positions revered by thousands, so many people still hoped to change their fate by entering the Divine Sky Sect.
It’s kind of like modern-day students striving to enter prestigious universities, hoping to change their lives. But how many people in today’s entrance exams actually make it, and with the same scores, some enter Tsinghua or Fudan, while others end up at a small school. Studying well is not as good as being born well~
Some people are just born with a silver spoon... destiny is not the same.
