Ling Xueyan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, her expression shifting between light and dark.
The current situation is somewhat unfavorable for her; if Qin Feng insists on fighting her, she will be in a very passive position.
Moreover, with the Xia King watching from the sidelines like a hawk, it's not uncommon for this guy to play the game of the snipe and the clam fighting while the fisherman reaps the benefits.
However, cooperating with the Xia king is tantamount to asking a tiger for its skin.
After much deliberation, she finally made her decision.
"I will not cooperate with you!"
"This immortal's cave is yours!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Xueyan jumped onto the flying beast. "Let's go!"
Upon hearing this, the flying monster immediately took off and left.
King Xia's expression changed slightly, and he quickly shouted, "Miss Ling, don't go yet!"
"If you don't trust me, we can poison each other."
Upon hearing this, Ling Xueyan stopped the flying demon beast and looked down at King Xia.
"I don't have poison, but I have a more effective way than poison."
"You sign a blood pact with me, and the one who betrays will suffer divine retribution."
King Xia frowned slightly, his expression shifting between light and dark.
"I am not a cultivator, nor have I ever heard of a blood pact. How can you expect me to trust you?"
Ling Xueyan shrugged indifferently. "Whether you believe it or not is your business!"
"Anyway, I'm a cultivator; I can choose whether or not to enter an immortal's cave!"
King Xia pondered for a moment, then sneered, "Since that's the case, then so be it!"
"With my strength, once the Kunlun Forbidden Zone opens, I will go there to seek opportunities."
Ling Xueyan didn't say anything and simply told the flying monster to leave.
King Xia glanced at Qin Feng and his three companions, then turned and left.
Qin Feng watched as Ling Xueyan and King Xia left, a cold smile creeping across his face.
He simply didn't believe those two would leave.
They'll probably hide and watch from the shadows to see if he can break through the protective formation of the manor.
Qin Feng glanced at the four people controlled by Ling Xueyan, hesitated for a moment, and then helped them break free from the binding spell, considering it a good deed.
The four regained their senses and bowed deeply to Qin Feng with expressions of gratitude. "Thank you so much for saving our lives, young friend!"
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "It's no need to mention saving my life!"
“Your strength is not bad, but it is dangerous for you to stay here. I suggest you leave as soon as possible.”
The four exchanged glances, and one of them, a round-faced old man, said, "Young friend, may we travel with you?"
"We don't know how to leave this little world, or where to go?"
"More importantly, that vixen Ling Xueyan probably won't let us off easily, so we need your protection."
"As long as you agree to let us come along, I guarantee that we old guys will obey your every word."
"If you don't trust us, you can use any means to control us, but once we leave this little world, you have to give us our freedom!"
Qin Feng glanced at the protective array around the manor, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded. "Alright!"
"Now open your minds, I will use a method to control your life and death."
"But as long as you do not betray me, I will not harm you in the slightest."
The four round-faced old men exchanged glances and all chose to believe Qin Feng.
Without any unexpected incidents, Qin Feng successfully used the Soul-Sealing Technique to control the four round-faced old men.
Unlike spirit binding and soul-capturing techniques, the Soul-Sealing Technique does not temporarily cause a person to lose their mind.
Lan Lan, Song Yuqing, and the deceased Meng Heyuan were all controlled by him using the Soul-Binding Technique.
Aside from his control over life and death, there will be no other impact.
Qin Feng glanced in the direction Ling Xueyan and King Xia had left, and gave a wicked smile. "Let's rest here for ten or eight days before leaving!"
Now, including him, there are eight people on their side, plus Lan Qin who is hiding in the shadows and has not yet appeared, making a total of nine people.
Apart from him, the other eight, including Lan Qin, were all at the peak of the Heavenly Realm and were all top-tier experts.
With such a lineup, even if King Xia and Ling Xueyan returned together, they would still have a fighting chance.
Since we don't know how to leave the small world right now, we might as well stay here and keep waiting with Ling Xueyan and King Xia.
Yan Feifei and the other six nodded. Qin Feng was now their pillar of support, so naturally they had to follow his lead.
Qin Feng glanced at Ouyang Mingyue, a half-smile on his face, and asked, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Ouyang Mingyue looked embarrassed. She hesitated for a moment and then sighed softly.
"You guessed right, I really didn't tell you the truth before!"
"I've never actually been to this small world. All the things I told you about it were told to me by Ling Xueyan!"
"But one thing I'm sure of is that Ling Xueyan has never been to this small world either!"
"Otherwise, there would be no need to sacrifice so many people to open the spatial gate."
Qin Feng glanced at Ouyang Mingyue and said speechlessly, "So, after all this time, you're just a pawn too!"
Ouyang Mingyue's face darkened. "Didn't you already know? Did you need to deliberately say it to mock me?"
Qin Feng didn't say anything more, sat down in meditation, and closed his eyes to pretend to sleep.
Ouyang Mingyue looked around but couldn't find any trace of Lan Qin. Her lips twitched violently.
She felt that Qin Feng was too cunning, even though he clearly held an absolute advantage.
They even let Lan Qin hide in the shadows, what a top-tier sixth master!
If King Xia and Ling Xueyan were to turn back and start a battle, they might be ambushed and severely injured by Lan Qin.
A dozen minutes later.
King Xia and Ling Xueyan walked out of the woods not far away, side by side.
Unlike Qin Feng, they all desperately wanted to enter the Immortal's Cave.
But Qin Feng stayed there the whole time, so they had no chance at all.
They now only have two choices: first, join forces to kill Qin Feng; second, cooperate with Qin Feng.
Upon seeing King Xia and Ling Xueyan return together, Ouyang Mingyue and the other six immediately stood up, their expressions quite unfriendly.
Qin Feng opened his eyes and slowly stood up.
King Xia and Ling Xueyan stopped about five meters away from Qin Feng and the others, and then King Xia spoke.
"Qin Feng, continuing like this will not benefit either you or us."
"How about we cooperate?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "I can cooperate with you, but you must help me get rid of Ling Xueyan."
King Xia frowned slightly. "Impossible. I have already signed a blood pact with her. If I betray her, I will be punished by heaven!"
Qin Feng curled his lip. "If it's impossible, then what's the point of talking about cooperation with me?"
"If you want to enter the immortal's cave, I will not stop you, nor will I do anything to harm you."
"But if you dare to provoke me, that's a different story."
Xia Wang and Ling Xueyan's expressions turned extremely ugly. If they were confident in breaking through the Immortal Cave, why would they have sought cooperation with Qin Feng?
Ling Xueyan took a deep breath and looked directly at Qin Feng, asking, "What do you want in return for your cooperation?"
Qin Feng said decisively, "Unless you die!"
