“Fellow Daoist, your answer is irrelevant.” Lü Dongbin paused for a moment, sighed, waved his hand to stop the changes around him, and placed the sword on the unsheathed blade beside him: “Yuan Tiangang asked the three of us to take you back. Please come with us.”

"No, no, Yuan Tiangang is plotting against me again." Lin Feng shook his head.

"Then I can only sever your Three-Flower Divine Fire and take you back." Lü Dongbin twitched his fingers slightly, and a sword beam flew out from the open scabbard, blowing away the surrounding clouds and mist.

Zhong Kui sneered, "Then I'll have no choice but to take your red-clad female general and return with Huang Chao's weapons!"

“Amitabha Buddha, this humble monk is not skilled in fighting and killing. If you remain obstinate, I can only sever your distracting thoughts.” Master Xuanzang spoke, immediately shattering the peaceful atmosphere of the monks: “The Buddha said, ‘Lay down the butcher’s knife and become a Buddha on the spot.’ You should lay down the butcher’s knife!”

Lin Feng took a deep breath: "Are you three planning to gang up on us?"

"Hahahaha, otherwise, would the three of us just stand by and watch you bully us with your numbers?" Zhong Kui stood up, drew a sword out of thin air, pointed it at Lin Feng and said, "Don't be afraid, it will hurt for a moment and then it will stop hurting."

Why...

Lin Feng retreated helplessly, his gaze fixed on the three who had also stood up, and asked again, "Do you really have to fight?"

“Then come with us.” A glint flashed in Lü Dongbin’s eyes as he waited for Lin Feng to make his choice.

"Well... alright, then I'll go with you..." Lin Feng sighed, but quickly asked again, "Can you tell me, are you taking me to be beheaded, or are you planning to do something else?"

As he spoke, Lin Feng's gaze swept across the three faces. Although it was impossible to discover anything from people with such cultivation levels, their intentions were clearly very different.

"What, do you think you'd dare run away if I told you?" Zhong Kui said nonchalantly, "But it's fine to tell you. His Majesty has no complaints about you killing those people. Apart from handing the matter over to Yuan Tiangang, he hasn't asked a single question."

“Amitabha, His Majesty is busy with many things every day, how could he possibly concern himself with such a small matter every moment?” Master Xuanzang said in a low voice, “If the three of us cannot bring you back, you will have nowhere to escape next time.”

Seeing this, Lin Feng persisted, "Then... did Yuan Tiangang say anything? For example, that he brought me back just to behead me?"

"Beheading?" Zhong Kui laughed and cursed, "The Holy Tang Dynasty rarely speaks of beheading, but... Yuan Tiangang will probably throw you into the cycle of reincarnation, completely erasing your memories, so that you can be reborn and fight for the Tang Dynasty!"

Lü Dongbin shook his head and said, "His destiny is that of a demonic star descended to earth; even if he were to reincarnate, he would be sent to the outer realms to fight for the Tang Dynasty..."

"That's not bad either..." Lin Feng feigned surprise: "Aren't you afraid that we'll remember our past lives again?"

"What good will it do to remember? The protagonists of this world are either chosen by fate or they obtain divinely ordained treasures. After losing the Nightmare Space, how much can you accomplish with just your own hands?" Zhong Kui sighed. "I suppose you really were just an ordinary person in your original world?"

At this moment, Lü Dongbin also sighed, "Fellow Daoist, the matter of cultivating the Dao is by no means a one-way street. Without the support of great resources, it would be very difficult for you to achieve such a level by yourself alone."

"Okay, okay, you're right."

Lin Feng was too lazy to refute, then raised his hands hesitantly and said, "Then... I'll go with you."

"Hmm?" Lin Feng's answer stunned the three of them. They were about to draw their swords when Lin Feng simply asked a question.

Zhong Kui was puzzled for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You really... Heh, kid, we'll use the Soul-Binding Lock to capture you."

“Then let’s do it.” Lin Feng didn’t hesitate and raised his hand in front of the other person, forcing Zhong Kui to lock him up.

"Um..." Zhong Kui couldn't help but think a little more about it, but with the other two around, he wasn't worried about any problems. He directly spoke his mind while wearing the Soul-Binding Lock: "Do you think someone will come to save you? Your friends? Or... Huang Chao's old subordinates?"

Lü Dongbin and the monk Xuanzang were thinking the same thing, but they all shook their heads when they saw Lin Feng's current situation.

Once they capture him, the matter will be incredibly simple. They can send Lin Feng to Gyeonggi Province in just one day. At that time, even if there are hundreds of participants, or even the army of a super dynasty, attacking them, it won't be that easy.

Click.

The Spirit Binding Lock was fastened to his hand. Lin Feng said quietly, "Let them catch you. You can handle any enemy that comes your way. Even if you don't believe in yourselves, I believe in the three extraordinary names you bear."

Lü Dongbin, Zhong Kui, and Xuanzang—perhaps this is what they meant by extraordinary. Without the Nightmare Space, everyone else is just an ordinary passerby...

I wonder if they have ever considered that if all beings had the same talent, they might not be able to surpass ordinary people.

"Amitabha, this humble monk still possesses a magical treasure that can seal all energy flow, leaving only his consciousness." Xuanzang tossed out a leaf, which gently landed on Lin Feng's head, pressing down on everything around him like an ancient, colossal mountain.

"Seven-Leaf Bodhi, hahaha, kid, even if you're let run now, you won't get very far!" Zhong Kui tossed out a rope and tied it to Lin Feng. With a gentle pull, Lin Feng immediately flew up with him: "Kid, when the Venerable Xuanzang was comprehending Buddhism, seven leaves fell on you. Each leaf, along with the Venerable Xuanzang, comprehended layers of Buddhist teachings. This is something that never existed in your original world. Even if you participants could foresee everything, this kind of change... is something you might not have been able to guess!"

Lin Feng couldn't help but become more curious. He couldn't see the leaf, but he could sense the source of the oppressive aura.

If the Spirit-Binding Lock sealed the flow of energy within his body, then this leaf was like a powerful source constantly radiating energy, suppressing all the abnormal movements within him.

The most crucial point is that there's only one piece; if there were seven pieces...

"Master Xuanzang is indeed amazing." Lin Feng complimented, but before he could finish, Zhong Kui glared at him and said, "Amazing, amazing! You'll see something even more amazing later!"

"Fellow Daoist," Lü Dongbin, who had followed them, interrupted their conversation and asked Lin Feng, "On your way... is there anything you haven't finished with?"

"Me? No, I have no ties to this world, and in the other world too..." Lin Feng sighed, "I'm relieved that there's world peace."

"World peace?" Master Xuanzang was taken aback and couldn't help but chant a Buddhist prayer.

"Hahaha, it's true world peace, even the most ordinary people can live a 'healthy' life." Lin Feng pointed ahead, indicating to lead the way, and then said nothing more.

healthy?

The three of them didn't seem to understand the subtle meaning behind it, but they didn't pay much attention to Lin Feng's intentions either. They simply pulled Lin Feng and flew towards the direction of Gyeonggi Province.

Besides, even if they really understood, they wouldn't have much interaction with Lin Feng at this moment.
