"Lin Fei, have you and your senior sister returned to Kunlun Mountain yet? Also, as I mentioned before, there's a secret I've hidden for years in the secret chamber of the cave behind the mountain. Now you can take a look. My phone is almost out of battery, so I won't say much more. Take care of yourself..." The old man said up to this point, and then the call abruptly ended.
Lin Fei was startled and quickly redialed his grandfather's number, but the phone only returned with: "The other person's phone is turned off, please try again later..."
Followed by the sound of busy signals ringing.
This made Lin Fei's heart sink instantly.
He had just heard from his grandfather about Ice Lake, and he also heard the howling wind over the phone.
This made Lin Fei think that his grandfather's location was probably the Snowfield Plateau.
In such a place, a phone running out of battery is quite normal.
But thinking about his grandfather being in dire straits, Lin Fei couldn't express his worry and distress.
Moreover, his grandfather had suffered a fatal injury and was about to use the Great Nirvana Heart Sutra to freeze himself for self-preservation and submerge into the Ice Lake.
This means that in the next three years, Lin Fei would not be able to see his grandfather.
And three years from now, if his grandfather's Great Nirvana fails, it would mean he would never see his grandfather again, losing him forever.
What was more terrifying was that Lin Fei didn't know where the Ice Lake, where his grandfather froze himself, was located.
If his grandfather couldn't emerge from the Ice Lake after three years, Lin Fei might not even be able to find his grandfather's body.
Lin Fei felt a heaviness in his heart that couldn't be described.
Thinking about his grandfather's last mention on the phone, about the secret hidden in the secret chamber of the cave behind the mountain, Lin Fei recalled that his grandfather had told him about it before he returned to Huadu last time.
But that time, Lin Fei had to go to the Capital City to save his senior sister, so he didn't return to Kunlun Mountain nor did he check the secret his grandfather left.
Now that matters in the Capital City are settled, and his senior sister needs half a year to awaken after using the Parnie Heart Sutra for self-preservation.
Thus, Lin Fei decided to return to Kunlun Mountain. He had many questions he wanted to solve, and perhaps his grandfather's secret held the answers he sought.
At this moment, Lin Fei's phone rang.
Seeing it was Li Guang calling, he answered the call: "Hello, Li Guang, how's it going?"
"Lin Fei, Ding Yongsheng has escaped." Li Guang's voice carried some regret.
Lin Fei said, "Hmm, that's okay. Since he's escaped, you should come back!"
"Okay." After saying that, Li Guang hung up.
Ding Yongsheng escaping was within Lin Fei's expectations, but it was likely Ding Yongsheng would seek out the Netherworld people.
However, Lin Fei didn't mind because wasn't he just troubled about not finding the Celestial Wolf Martial Saint of the Heaven and Earth Sect?
If they could come to him, that would be even better.
Three days later, in the apartment where Lin Fei used to live, Deng Ziyu sat on the sofa with her eyebrows furrowed, looking gloomy and dejected. Her eyes were a bit red, as if she was about to cry.
Deng Han and Chen Lin, sitting on the opposite sofa, saw Deng Ziyu's sad and upset state. Deng Han exchanged a glance with Chen Lin, signaling him to comfort his younger sister.
Chen Lin had to clear his throat and said to Deng Ziyu, "Ziyu, although Lin Fei has returned to Kunlun Mountain, he didn't say he wouldn't come back. He just went back for something, and I believe he'll return soon."
"Yes, yes, yes, he must know your feelings for him, and he will come back," Deng Han quickly chimed in.
Deng Ziyu was very upset; Lin Fei had been gone for three days, and she was the last to know.
Because Lin Fei had been dealing with various martial arts figures lately, Deng Ziyu hadn't seen him for the past few days and thought he was just busy with something.
If she hadn't asked Chen Lin today about what Lin Fei was busy with recently and why he was always out of sight?
Chen Lin might have continued keeping it from her.
Lin Fei left quietly, but before leaving, he told Chen Wuyue and also informed people like Chen Lin.
However, he hadn't told Deng Ziyu.
That's why she was so upset.
Moreover, Lin Fei told Chen Lin that this trip back to Kunlun Mountain could mean he would return to the Capital City soon, or it might take months before he returns to the Capital City.
Thinking about the upcoming days without seeing Lin Fei, Deng Ziyu felt deeply disappointed.
...
At night, under the moonlight.
On the Great Wall, dozens of black-clad figures appeared.
The leader of the black-clad figures wore a silver mask with a head full of silver hair, exuding a strong and profound aura.
His eyes were as sharp as a wolf's, radiating a bloodthirsty glow.
"Elder Wan, that night, Sect Leader Wan, and people from the five sects and ten schools had a grand battle with that Lin Fei right here," an elder showed a sycophantic expression, speaking to the silver-haired opposite Elder Wan wearing a silver mask.
This elder with a sycophantic face was precisely Ding Yongsheng.
After Lin Fei had destroyed Ding Yongsheng's martial arts skills that night, Ding Yongsheng quickly relocated the Ding family members and the Ding family Black Eagle Guards to a secret place to hide.
He also collected all the news about the great battle at the Great Wall between Lin Fei, Wan Jianchen, and the people from the five sects and ten schools.
After Lin Fei and others left the Great Wall, on both the Great Wall and in the valley, the wounded Netherworld experts and the experts from the five sects and ten schools who weren't dead were all rescued by Ding Yongsheng's Black Eagle Guards.
Ding Yongsheng healed all these wounded Netherworld experts and experts from the five sects and ten schools.
Then Ding Yongsheng got the surviving Netherworld experts to take him again to the Desert Netherworld Peak and meet Wan Jianchen's father, Elder Wan of the Heaven and Earth Sect.
Upon learning that his son and the Netherworld's Five Poisons were killed, Elder Wan immediately led over a hundred elite Netherworld members to the Capital City.
Elder Wan, with a sharp gaze, looked at Ding Yongsheng and said, "You said you've preserved my son's body well, now take me to see it!"
"Elder Wan, I've already informed my people to deliver the bodies of Sect Leader Wan and the heads of the five sects to us. They should be arriving shortly," Ding Yongsheng said respectfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, they saw under the moonlight, dozens of black-clad figures carrying around ten coffins, swiftly flying through the woods towards the Great Wall.
In just the blink of an eye, dozens of black-clad figures carried about ten coffins and landed on the Great Wall.
These black-clad figures placed the coffins along the passageway of the Great Wall, lining them up in a row.
Ding Yongsheng said to these black-clad figures, "All Black Eagle Guards, open the coffin lids."
"Yes, master." The Black Eagle Guards responded and opened all the coffin lids.
Ding Yongsheng said to the masked Elder Wan, "Elder Wan, please inspect them."
Elder Wan immediately stepped forward, and the first coffin contained the body of Wan Jianchen.
His body was covered with ice blocks, which Ding Yongsheng arranged for to prevent the body from decaying, with the Black Eagle Guards covering the body with ice.
In addition, over the past few days, the bodies of Wan Jianchen and the others had been hidden in a cool cave, so even though they died a few days ago, the bodies were still well-preserved.
Elder Wan looked at the corpse of Wan Jianchen in the coffin, covered with ice and snow, his eyes wide open in fear even in death. Elder Wan, wearing a mask, had eyes filled with hatred and sorrow.
"Son, you must have died with unresolved grievances! As your father, I will avenge you and send that Lin Fei to hell, never to reincarnate!" Elder Wan said through gritted teeth.
Then, Elder Wan looked at Ding Yongsheng and said, "Send the bodies of the heads and elders of the five sects to Jiangnan, to their respective sects, and say that Lin Fei killed them."
"Yes, Elder Wan." Ding Yongsheng responded promptly.
At the same time, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes: Lin Fei, just you wait for an even more terrifying revenge!
