We've asked everything we needed to ask. Although we didn't get much information from Zhang Xianguang and Li Lingyu, it's better than nothing.
Ye Feng examined Shen Hou's body again, and after confirming that there were no problems, he threw it directly into the cold river water.
Shenhou's body fell into the river and sank immediately, disappearing without a trace.
"Now that this matter is settled, let's part ways."
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, he teleported away.
Looking at the spot where Ye Feng had just stood, Zhang Xianguang said to himself, "I never expected that we would be able to meet such a powerful senior who would come to our rescue. We are so lucky."
"Yes, it seems we're not destined to die," Li Lingyu said with a smile.
Suddenly, Zhang Xianguang coughed violently, and bright red blood gushed from his mouth.
Li Lingyu immediately asked with concern, "Husband, are you alright?"
Zhang Xianguang shook his head and said, "It's just a minor internal injury; it's nothing serious. He'll be fine after a few days of rest."
After a pause, Zhang Xianguang continued, "Lingyu, we must leave here quickly. Shenhou is dead, but the Twelve Zodiacs still have eleven assassins, and each one is more powerful than the last. We are no match for them and cannot linger here."
Li Lingyu nodded and hurriedly left with Zhang Xianguang, not even bothering to look after the small boat.
But the night breeze didn't leave.
Ye Feng stood by the river, using a concealment technique to hide his figure and aura, quietly watching everything on the river surface.
Seeing Zhang Xianguang and Li Lingyu abandon the badly damaged boat and leave, Ye Feng did not show up.
Another hour passed, but Zhang Xianguang and Li Lingyu did not appear, and there was no one else nearby.
Night Wind finally moved to the surface of the river, raised his right hand and gently grabbed, and a corpse broke through the water and hung in front of Night Wind.
It was the corpse of the Monkey King!
Ye Feng removed the monkey mask from Shen Hou's face and also took off the storage ring from Shen Hou's wrist.
There weren't many items in the storage ring on Shenhou's wrist.
However, one of the tokens caught Ye Feng's attention.
This token is made of bronze and looks ordinary, but it contains a very complex array.
Once activated by injecting true energy, a monkey pattern will appear on the originally blank token.
It seems that this token is the one Shenhou uses in the Twelve Zodiac Killer Organization, and he can use it to prove his identity.
Ye Feng then put away the token and also put Shen Hou's magical longsword into his storage ring.
With the mask, the token, and Shenhou's magical artifact, Yefeng could impersonate Shenhou and take his place.
If we can infiltrate the Chinese zodiac in this way, it will be much easier to investigate their true nature.
Just as Ye Feng was thinking this, a small boat sped up from upstream on the river.
Night Wind immediately put Shenhou's mask on his face and turned Shenhou into ashes.
In this way, no clues will be left behind!
The small boat was extremely fast, arriving in front of Ye Feng in just a few breaths. Ye Feng landed from the air and stood on the small boat, looking at it.
On the small boat stood a middle-aged man who looked very kind and was dressed in blue, exuding a strong scholarly air.
"I never expected to meet Lord Shenhou here."
The middle-aged man on the small boat said with a smile, his eyes scanning Ye Feng up and down.
"How do you know I am Shenhou?" Yefeng asked, feigning indifference.
“This isn’t the first time I’ve seen that mask on your face. How could I not recognize you?” the middle-aged man said.
"Who are you?" Night Wind asked.
"My name is Chen Xiangfei. There is something I need Your Excellency Shenhou to do for me," Chen Xiangfei said.
Night Breeze chuckled and said, "Want me to help you? My price is very high."
"As long as Lord Shenhou can help me get this done, I will agree to any request you make," Chen Xiangfei said without hesitation.
Just as Ye Feng was about to speak, Ling Luo Yuan Sheng's voice suddenly rang out in Ye Feng's sea of consciousness.
"Side quest activated: Impersonate Shen Hou and help Chen Xiangfei find his only son, Chen Mingyu."
A side quest has been unlocked?
This situation has not occurred in the previous two missions.
It seems my previous judgment was correct; as the number of tasks completed increases, the difficulty and complexity of the tasks will also increase.
However, this naturally makes the rewards even more generous!
After a moment's thought, Ye Feng asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"
Chen Xiangfei sighed and said, "Your Excellency Shenhou, you may not know this, but my son Chen Mingyu suddenly disappeared a month ago, and there has been no trace of him since. He is my only son, and I certainly cannot abandon him."
"But I really don't know where to start, and I'm injured and unable to search, so I can only entrust this to Lord Shenhou."
Ye Feng said, "What if your son Chen Mingyu is already dead?"
"I want to see him alive or dead. Even if my son is dead, as long as Lord Shenhou brings his body to me, the mission will be accomplished. What do you say?" Chen Xiangfei emphasized his words, showing that he was determined to find his missing son.
Suddenly, a wave crashed in front of us.
Chen Xiangfei raised his oar and pointed it at the crest of a wave. The wave immediately broke through the gap and bypassed the two boats where Ye Feng and Chen Xiangfei were.
Peak of the Divine Realm!
This Chen Xiangfei is not an ordinary person, but a martial artist, and his strength is not weak, even stronger than Shen Hou!
Since Chen Xiangfei is so powerful, far surpassing Shen Hou, why would he need Shen Hou's help?
Ye Feng frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Chen is so powerful, I'm afraid he doesn't need my help, does he?"
"Your Excellency Shenhou, look at my hand."
As Chen Xiangfei spoke, he raised his right hand and showed it to Ye Feng.
It was discovered that Chen Xiangfei's right hand was missing three fingers!
"Ten years ago, I fought with someone and had three fingers cut off by him. As a result, I now have a lot of skills but I can't even hold a sword. I have the strength of a martial artist in the Divine Travel Realm but I can't use it much."
"Moreover, I have many enemies, so it is really inconvenient for me to show my face in public. Therefore, I can ask you for help."
Chen Xiangfei said earnestly, and even cast a pleading look at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng finally nodded and said, "Alright, I promise you, I will help you find your son Chen Mingyu. But after it's done, you have to give me enough reward, otherwise don't blame me for turning my back on you."
In fact, Ye Feng didn't care about any reward at all.
Now that Lingluo Yuansheng has started the side quest, Yefeng will definitely accept it. Even if Chen Xiangfei can't offer a reward, he won't stand idly by.
