After saying that, Lord Wu dumped all the food from the rice bucket into the cell like pig feed.
Chen Mingyu was so humiliated by Lord Wu that he could not bear it. He frantically rammed the fence in an attempt to escape, but the fence was also protected by an array that he could not break.
"You bastard, just you wait! I'll kill you sooner or later!" Chen Mingyu roared.
Lord Wu glanced at Chen Mingyu with disdain, then turned and left.
After Lord Wu had been gone for a while, Ye Feng finally said, "You are Chen Xiangfei's son, Chen Mingyu?"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Chen Mingyu in the prison cell was immediately taken aback.
Chen Mingyu suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Feng, but he saw nothing.
The corridor outside the cell was deserted, not a soul in sight!
"Who is it? Who is speaking?" Chen Mingyu shouted.
"Keep your voice down, do you want to attract that guy surnamed Wu here?" Ye Feng said coldly.
Chen Mingyu then asked in a low voice, "Who exactly are you?"
“I’m someone your father hired. He sent me to find you,” Ye Feng explained.
"Why should I believe you?" Chen Mingyu said angrily.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you," Ye Feng said bluntly.
Chen Mingyu gritted his teeth and remained silent for a long time without uttering a sound.
Ye Feng continued, "Now, answer my question: are you Chen Xiangfei's son, Chen Mingyu?"
“That’s right, I am Chen Mingyu,” Chen Mingyu said.
"How do you prove your identity?" Night Wind asked again.
"Do I need to prove anything? Look at my face. If I weren't Chen Xiangfei's son, would I look this much like him?" Chen Mingyu said, brushing aside his messy hair to show Ye Feng his face.
Chen Mingyu does indeed look very similar to Chen Xiangfei; he's practically a carbon copy of Chen Xiangfei.
But what if the Chen Mingyu in the cell is actually an imposter?
Thinking of this, Ye Feng said, "Put your hand out from behind the fence, I need to check it again."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
After saying that, Chen Mingyu stretched his right hand out from behind the fence.
Night Wind grabbed Chen Mingyu's wrist like lightning, and pure Dragon Emperor True Qi immediately flowed from his palm, continuously surging into Chen Mingyu's body.
Every corner of Chen Mingyu's body was instantly filled with the true energy of the night wind.
Only after confirming that the person in front of him was not an imposter using some kind of technique that could change one's appearance and physique did Ye Feng finally believe that he was Chen Mingyu.
"Now you know I wasn't lying to you, right?" Chen Mingyu said.
"Well, I'll assume you're real for now," Night Wind said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Take me out of here!" Chen Mingyu urged.
"Don't rush, I have something to ask you," Ye Feng said.
"Then ask quickly, don't dawdle," Chen Mingyu said swiftly.
Night Breeze smiled and said, "Why were you imprisoned here by City Lord Cheng Shuanghan? What exactly happened to you?"
Chen Mingyu's face showed deep resentment.
After a long while, Chen Mingyu finally said, "Have you ever heard of the Xuanbing Spirit Palace?"
“I’ve heard of it,” Night Wind said.
Chen Mingyu continued, "Actually, my father was the master of the Xuanbing Spirit Palace. Ten years ago, the Xuanbing Spirit Palace was besieged by countless people. My father knew that the situation was hopeless, so he disbanded the Xuanbing Spirit Palace and brought me to Fengding City."
“My father changed his name to Chen Xiangfei, and I changed my name to Chen Mingyu. My father and I were living a good life in Fengding City, but then I was targeted by the Twelve Zodiacs.”
"So I was captured and brought here, where I was subjected to severe torture by the people of the Twelve Zodiacs. Their goal is to obtain the fundamental cultivation technique of our Xuanbing Spirit Palace—the Illusion God Technique!"
“But my father is the palace master. Only he has cultivated the complete Illusion God Technique. I have only cultivated the Illusion God Technique to the third level.”
Night Wind asked, "You handed over the first three levels of the Illusion God Technique?"
"Yes, I handed it over. I had no choice. Cheng Shuanghan and the others took turns torturing me, and I just couldn't take it anymore..." Chen Mingyu said resentfully.
A look of understanding appeared on Ye Feng's face.
Ye Feng had found it strange before. When he followed Liang Cheng'an into that underground chamber, he was clearly maintaining the state of concealing his breath, but Wang Xinglong discovered him.
Wang Xinglong was merely a martial artist at the Divine Travel Realm; theoretically, he shouldn't have been able to detect Ye Feng.
It now seems highly likely that Wang Xinglong has also cultivated the Illusionary God Technique.
As for the mysterious assassin who suddenly appeared and attacked Ye Feng, it goes without saying that he must have also cultivated the Illusion God Technique, and his cultivation level in the Illusion God Technique was even higher than Wang Xinglong's!
In this way, the identities of Wang Xinglong, Cheng Shuanghan, and the others are obvious!
Cheng Shuanghan is one of the twelve zodiac signs. Wang Xinglong, Zhao Tongwei, Mu Qingshan, and the guy surnamed Wu from earlier are also members of the twelve zodiac signs!
They are all killers of the twelve zodiac signs!
Ye Feng immediately asked, "Is Cheng Shuanghan the assassin of the Twelve Zodiacs? Are Wang Xinglong, Zhao Tongwei, and Mu Qingshan also assassins?"
Chen Mingyu nodded and said, "That's right, Cheng Shuanghan is a hypocrite, but in reality he is the leader of the twelve zodiac animals!"
"Wang Xinglong, the chief constable of Fengding City, Zhao Tongwei, Mu Qingshan, and Wu Qingfeng are also included!"
"Besides them, I know someone else named Li Lianhao, who is also an assassin among the twelve zodiac animals. And I suspect that Li Lianhao is the Monkey!"
"However, although I know they are the killers of the twelve zodiac signs, I don't know which killer they correspond to."
Chen Mingyu stopped there.
Night Wind, of course, understood what he meant.
The twelve zodiac animals are designated as Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.
Although we now know that Cheng Shuanghan, Wang Xinglong, and others are assassins from the Twelve Zodiacs, we don't know which codename they correspond to.
This would not be considered revealing the true nature of the twelve zodiac animals.
"Can you take me away from here? If you rescue me, I'll give you anything you want!" Chen Mingyu pleaded.
"Including the Illusion God Technique?" Night Wind asked.
“Including the Illusion God Technique!” Chen Mingyu said emphatically.
"Okay, then I'll get you out of here."
Without further hesitation, Ye Feng raised his hand and punched the cell bars.
With a loud bang, the fence was instantly torn open by the night wind.
Chen Mingyu was stunned.
He never dreamed that Ye Feng could break through the prison door so easily, even though there were defensive formations inside the prison door and cell!
"What...what level are you at?" Chen Mingyu asked in surprise.
"Does it matter what level I'm at?" Night Wind retorted.
After saying that, Ye Feng grabbed Chen Mingyu's shoulder.
As Ye Feng took a step forward, he and Chen Mingyu disappeared from the dungeon, and when they reappeared, they were already in the sky above Fengding City.
