Chapter 221: Just Cleaning Up Trash!

Ling Feng and Qin Wanwan walked side by side into the cafeteria.

With a glance, they spotted an old acquaintance, He Zhonglei!

"It's you two?"

He Zhonglei was taken aback upon seeing Ling Feng and Qin Wanwan enter the cafeteria together. His eyes twitched.

Comparing appearances, Ling Feng was nowhere near Qin Wanwan's league.

"How ridiculous! Like a flower in a pile of shit!"

Half a month had passed. He Zhonglei still bore bruises all over his body, but the swelling in his pig-like head had subsided, returning him to his original appearance. Even his shattered teeth had regrown.

Ling Feng frowned and was about to retort, but Qin Wanwan acted first.

She immediately circulated her true qi, delivering a fierce kick straight towards He Zhonglei's groin while indignantly declaring, "You bastard! Why are you spouting nonsense!? I'll teach you a lesson today!"

This wasn't the first time Ling Feng had witnessed Qin Wanwan's temper.

Moreover, her background wasn't simple; with the Liu family of Jiangdu backing her, she wasn't afraid of anything.

Within the Tianbai Empire, apart from the royal family and a few select clans, other families had to give their respect to the Liu family of Jiangdu.

In a sense, the Yan family of the Eastern Capital and the Liu family of Jiangdu could almost be considered equals. However, the emergence of Yan Jinghong from the Yan family greatly disrupted this balance.

Swoosh

!

Qin Wanwan struck with determination. Combined with her recent training, her speed and strength had significantly improved. If this kick landed, He Zhonglei would be in serious trouble.

"Young Lady, don't burn your bridges so easily. Being too ruthless isn't wise!"

A chilling voice sounded out, causing Qin Wanwan to tremble as a young man in white grabbed her raised right foot.

It was clear from the faint embroidery of “sky” on the left side of his outfit that he was a sky-tier student.

"Big brother!"

He Zhonglei breathed a sigh of relief, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. He had narrowly avoided disaster.

He Zhongjie, He Zhonglei’s big brother, raised an eyebrow playfully, and smiled faintly. "Why is a beauty like you acting so rough?"

"Hmph, what's it to you? Let go of me!"

Although she tried to struggle free, Qin Wanwan found that she was immobilized. After a bit, she tightly clenched her teeth before shouting,, "Ling Feng, you're just standing there! Why don't you help instead!?"

Ling Feng sighed lightly. His gaze then turned cold as he swiftly moved into action.

Clang!

The sound of Ling Feng drawing his sword rang out, and before anyone noticed a cold light shot out, aimed directly at He Zhongjie's palm.

If He Zhongjie didn't let go, his hand would be cut off.

He Zhongjie furrowed his brow, a hint of anger flashing across his face, before quickly releasing Qin Wanwan's ankle with a flick of his fingers.

Ping!

A crisp sound rang out as Ling Feng sheathed his sword.

The moment his sword struck, he had already retracted the Eradicator of Realms.

Throughout that entire scene, Ling Feng stood still as if he hadn't moved at all.

"What swift swordsmanship!"

He Zhongjie squinted, focusing on Ling Feng, before slowly saying, "You're the kid who defeated my four incompetent subordinates that day!"

"It is me, Ling Feng!"

Ling Feng met He Zhongjie's gaze head-on, equally unyielding.

Despite He Zhongjie being a sky-tier student, Ling Feng showed no signs of fear.

"You can be considered talented." He Zhongjie didn't grow angry at Ling Feng's defiance; instead, he smiled faintly, his tone carrying a hint of threat. "Geniuses all have pride, but don't forget, being too rigid makes you brittle! Tianwei Academy is not a place where you can run wild."

Ling Feng remained indifferent. "Run wild? I'm just cleaning up trash. If you get in my way, I'll clean you up just as mercilessly!"

His words chilled the atmosphere, and the surrounding students sensed that trouble was brewing, quickly backing away.

Qin Wanwan bit her lip, unable to help but tug at Ling Feng's sleeve while whispering, "Ling Feng, let it go."

Sky-tier students weren't easy to deal with!

"You!" He Zhongjie's brow furrowed, a flash of anger in his eyes. Just as he was about to react, a hearty laughter echoed from behind.

"Hahaha, kid, I've finally found you!"

The onlookers couldn't help but turn their heads to see a tall dark-skinned man striding over, accompanied by a tall and thin square-faced man.

These two were none other than the captain and vice-captain of the East Court Sword Team, Gu Tengfeng and Gong Cheng.

Gu Tengfeng had finally found some free time and wandered into the area where the yellow-tier students were active. Spotting Ling Feng in the cafeteria, he felt a surge of joy.

Ling Feng was the only newcomer among over a hundred yellow-tier students that caught his eye.

"

Hmm?

" He Zhongjie's expression shifted slightly as he saw Gu Tengfeng.

Gu Tengfeng, one of the few sky-tier students in the East Court, was someone He Zhongjie feared.

"

Ah,

Captain Gu." He Zhongjie greeted Gu Tengfeng with a polite sword salute.

However, Gu Tengfeng seemed to completely ignore him, eagerly sizing up Ling Feng, even circling around him.

"

Hahaha,

I’ve finally found you! Ling Feng!"

Gu Tengfeng finally stopped, his gaze fixed on Ling Feng. A mix of excitement and admiration could be found in his eyes that were tinged with a hint of fanaticism.

"Found me?" Ling Feng blinked, somewhat puzzled. "Who are you?"

"Me?" Gu Tengfeng stood proudly, hands behind his back. "Gu Tengfeng, the best in the East Court!"

Seeing Gu Tengfeng and Ling Feng chatting as if he didn't exist, He Zhongjie's mouth twitched slightly.

This damned Gu Tengfeng completely disregarded me!

Creak, creak...

He Zhongjie clenched his steel teeth, his fists tightening as he glared fiercely at Ling Feng and Gu Tengfeng. With a flick of his sleeve, he exclaimed angrily, "Let's go!"

While He Zhonglei felt reluctant, he had long heard from He Zhongjie about the ruthlessness of Gu Tengfeng.

Within the East Court, there weren't many individuals even He Zhongjie couldn't afford to provoke, but Gu Tengfeng was one of them.

Seeing He Zhongjie wisely depart, Gu Tengfeng raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Kid, I just did you a favor!"

Ling Feng scratched his nose and replied casually, "Well, thanks, I guess."

"No need to thank me. I just want you!

Hehehe...

"

Gu Tengfeng stared at Ling Feng and laughed heartily.

"You want him?"

Qin Wanwan glanced at the towering figure of Gu Tengfeng, who was over two meters tall, resembling a gorilla, and then looked at Ling Feng's slender frame. Her lips couldn’t help but twitch slightly. "You... want him?

Huh!?

"

She couldn't help but shudder, and the surrounding students also felt a chill run down their spines.

Surely, this hulking figure isn't interested in that aspect, right?
