Chapter 78: Brother Wen, I never expected you to be such a person!
Qin Haoxuan didn’t expect Lin Fengmian to talk to him like that and laughed angrily, “Why don’t you try it?”
Lin Fengmian looked at him with a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely cold.
“I’m afraid you’ll die if you try.”
Qin Haoxuan suddenly felt a sense of mortal danger and broke out in a cold sweat.
He quickly changed his demeanor and said with a laugh, “Haha, Mr. Lin is truly a fascinating person. It was my rudeness!”
Lin Fengmian watched as he quickly backed away a few steps, surrounded by his henchmen, hesitating but ultimately not making a move.
Even if he activated the power within the double fish pendant and killed Qin Haoxuan, it would be of no use and would only implicate Xia Yunxi.
So he just wanted to scare the man, maybe show the VIP badge of the Heavenly Patrol Tower, but not actually make a move.
He speculated that although the VIP badge was intimidating, it would probably have no effect on a noble like Qin Haoxuan.
Showing the so-called VIP badge would only alert the snake, making his death even more silent.
Lin Fengmian lovingly wrapped his arm around Xia Yunxi’s waist and declared his ownership with a smile, “It’s good that Mr. Qin understands.”
If I can’t kill you, I’ll make you sick to death!
Qin Haoxuan, feeling the mocking glances from the surrounding crowd, suppressed his anger, bowed, and turned to leave.
After walking for a while, he looked back at Lin Fengmian with icy cold eyes.
He didn’t care about Lin Fengmian’s threat; as long as he didn’t act foolishly, Lin Fengmian couldn’t kill him.
However, the thought that such a fine furnace vessel like Xia Yunxi had already been taken by someone else infuriated him.
“How annoying!”
Of course, Lin Fengmian knew that Qin Haoxuan wouldn’t let this go, but whether he cowered or confronted him directly, the result would be the same.
Being a profligate himself, Lin Fengmian understood Qin Haoxuan’s mindset perfectly.
Such people seemed to be better than the usual arrogant young masters, but they were actually more dangerous.
On the surface, they were polite, but they had an arrogance that looked down on everyone.
Their code of conduct was still that of a wastrel.
I can provoke you, but you can’t provoke me!
I want your possessions, and it’s up to you to give them to me with gratitude.
Lin Fengmian understood this because he had once been like this, only to be humiliated and almost crushed by the Joyful Union Sect.
Therefore, he also knew that Qin Haoxuan, like other young masters, was most afraid of death and was not willing to take any risks.
He hadn’t enjoyed the world of pleasures to the fullest, how could he die like this?
Seeing Lin Fengmian’s dark expression, Zhou Xiaoping apologized, “It’s all my fault for wanting to go out for some fresh air, and he blocked our door…”
Lin Fengmian forced a smile, “It’s not your fault. Anyway, we’ll leave the ship tomorrow. I didn’t expect any more complications.”
Zhou Xiaoping nodded, “Don’t worry, we’re not going anywhere tonight. I’ll keep an eye on her.”
Lin Fengmian chuckled, “Thank you for that.”
Xia Yunxi lowered her head, “Brother, am I a troublemaker?”
Lin Fengmian patted her head and smiled, “How can this be your fault? Don’t worry, it’s fine!”
As he watched Zhou Xiaoping take Xia Yunxi into the room and activate the protective field, he walked over to Wen Qinlin with a heavy heart.
Wen Qinlin’s room was on the other side, unaware of what had happened.
When Lin Fengmian knocked on the door, Wen Qinlin cautiously asked, “Who is it?”
“Brother Wen, it’s me!”
After Lin Fengmian spoke, the door opened after a while.
Wen Qinlin, dressed in black, invited Lin Fengmian in and poured him a cup of tea.
Lin Fengmian sniffed and frowned, “Brother Wen, have you had a woman here? There’s a strong smell of a woman.”
Wen Qinlin panicked and waved his hand, “Nonsense, don’t talk nonsense. It’s just that my junior sister came to visit me.”
Seeing that Lin Fengmian wanted to ask more, she changed the subject, “Brother Lin, is there anything you need?”
Lin Fengmian also remembered his business and told her about the recent incident, saying helplessly, “I hope this doesn’t cause you any trouble, Brother Wen.”
Wen Qinlin apologized, “It’s my fault. I didn’t expect Qin Haoxuan to be so shameless.”
“Don’t worry, Brother Lin. I’ll keep an eye on things and make sure Qin Haoxuan doesn’t bother Miss Xia again.”
Lin Fengmian smiled, “With your words, I feel relieved. Anyway, we’ll be off the ship tomorrow, so the problem should be minor.”
Wen Qinlin nodded and then looked at Lin Fengmian who seemed to have something to say but hesitated. She asked, “Brother Lin, is there anything else?”
Lin Fengmian thought for a moment before speaking, “Brother Wen, have you heard of the Qionghua Sect?”
“Qionghua Sect?”
Wen Qinlin furrowed his brow and shook his head, “The name sounds familiar. It seems there was a supreme being who used it as a title.”
“Qionghua Supreme, the Sword Supreme!” Lin Fengmian recalled.
“Yes, the Sword Supreme of the previous generation!”
Wen Qinlin clapped his hands, remembering the matter, and then asked confusedly, “Why did you bring that up all of a sudden, Brother Lin?”
Lin Fengmian smiled, “I saw related records in the Joyful Union Sect and became a bit curious. I wonder if you know anything about this supreme being and her sect?”
Wen Qinlin awkwardly shook his head, “The Qionghua Supreme was the Sword Supreme of the Divine Prefecture. I know very little about her, only that such a supreme being existed.”
“But I don’t know about her life and sect, and the affairs of supreme beings are not recorded.”
Lin Fengmian was a bit disappointed and curious, “Why are the affairs of supreme beings not recorded?”
Wen Qinlin explained, “It is only because the Qionghua Supreme has fallen that I dare to discuss her with you.”
“If she were still alive, mentioning her title like this would attract her attention, which is an insult to the Supreme Being.”
Lin Fengmian was shocked, “So unbelievable? Can’t even talk about it?”
Wen Qinlin nodded, “It’s best not to talk about it if possible. The abilities of supreme beings are beyond our imagination. Insulting a supreme being will bring endless trouble.”
Lin Fengmian originally wanted to ask who the current Sword Supreme was, but when he heard this, he immediately gave up the idea.
He was about to leave politely when he suddenly noticed something under Wen Qinlin’s blanket and reached out to pull it out.
“Brother Wen, isn’t this a woman’s undergarment? Why is it in your room?”
Wen Qinlin immediately panicked and reached out to grab it, but Lin Fengmian dodged.
He was holding her innerwear, and she was at a loss for words.
She had just finished a night of cultivation, loosened her restraints, and changed into a fresh set of underwear.
Who knew that Lin Fengmian would suddenly visit? She hurriedly put on her clothes and bound her chest.
The used clothes hadn’t been washed yet, and she didn’t want to put them in her storage ring, so she stuffed them under the blanket.
Who knew this guy had a dog’s nose and figured it out.
