Chapter 139: Cannon Fodder with Great Bright Spots
Feng Tinghai glanced at Jimo Yanzhou coldly and said, "I'll let you go this time for Miss Zhou's sake. If you dare to mention my junior sister again next time, you'll bear the consequences yourself."
Jimo Yanzhou had Zhou Yun's life-saving talisman, so he was not afraid of Feng Tinghai at all. Besides, he also had a divine blessing of endless life. With the double BUFF stacked, he couldn't die anyway, so he was not that scared. It was just that this half-dead state was quite torturous. No wonder the system spoke to him in such a pitiful tone after knowing that he had such a divine blessing. It turned out to be sympathy.
"Little girl, don't be so impulsive. I was just trying to scare that guy." Feng Tinghai looked at Zhou Yun with his hazel eyes. Zhou Yun was the one who made him reborn, so he naturally wouldn't do anything to her. He had just sworn to obey her orders. But the little girl did have some abilities, and he still admired her.
Jimo Yanzhou could feel Feng Tinghai's powerful cultivation and was very surprised: "How come your cultivation level increased so fast?" Just now it was just a weak soul, but in just two hours, not only did it condense into a physical body, but its cultivation level was almost one step away from reaching the Ascension Realm.
"The ghost energy here is strong, which is very suitable for my cultivation. Now my cultivation is only one step away from ascension. I was originally in the middle stage of Taiqing Realm. In order to seal the source of the world's destruction, I voluntarily sacrificed myself. After that, I was trapped here, and my soul became weaker and weaker. Now, I am just recovering my original cultivation." Feng Tinghai said here, his eyes bright, and there seemed to be no regrets at all.
"Your junior sister tricked you into marrying you by sacrificing herself to seal the source of destruction and save the world, but she ended up marrying someone else. And you don't seem to hate her at all?" Zhou Yun asked him.
Feng Tinghai was slightly stunned for a moment. "I will investigate this matter when I get out. I will not just listen to a little girl like you."
Nan Yanche sent a voice message and chuckled, "Feng Tinghai is extremely talented, possesses an innate sword bone, and is the first disciple of the Cangwu Sect's leader. He has been carefully trained by the sect and has never experienced any setbacks. His cultivation has always been soaring. It's just his personality. To put it nicely, he is honest and simple, but to put it bluntly, he is brainless. No wonder he was played around by others. The disciples of the Cangwu Sect are also simple-minded. They practice all day long. You Shu deserves to be deceived."
Zhou Yun saw that Feng Tinghai's eyes were clear and pure, and he looked innocent. Such a person was either very scheming and well concealed, or had no scheming at all. Nan Yanche had always been disdainful of Feng Tinghai.
"It is a fact that the Cangwu clan was wiped out, and You Shu is also the wife of Jimo Liaoxian." Zhou Yun did not believe Nan Yanche's evaluation of Feng Tinghai. She felt that after so many years, everything would change. Not to mention people?
"Junior sister was deceived by someone. Even if not, maybe she has some unspeakable secrets." At this point, Feng Tinghai's voice was obviously lacking in confidence, but deep down, he still felt that he couldn't make a random judgment without seeing it with his own eyes.
Zhou Yun glanced at Jimo Yanzhou who was standing there in a daze, and felt that both Feng Tinghai and Jimo Yanzhou did not seem to be very smart.
Jimo Yanzhou thought, this Feng Tinghai is really a pure love war god, but Yun'er and Nan Yanche have been chatting privately for so long, and Nan Yanche seems to know a lot about You Shu and Jimo Liaoxian. He suddenly murmured, "This Feng Tinghai is too naive."
The system suddenly interrupted and said: In a world where the strong prey on the weak, people who are too honest and simple-minded are destined to be cannon fodder.
Jimo Yanzhou suddenly heard the system's voice, and was delighted. He said, "Damn system, where did you go just now? Why is there no sound all of a sudden?"
The system showed a deep expression and laughed: There was a problem and the line was disconnected.
Jimo Yanzhou frowned. For some reason he felt like he could see a deep expression on a cat's face. He thought to himself: You keep getting disconnected. I'm afraid you're using a recycled second-hand system.
System: What second-hand recycling system? Your father is a serious and good system. I was just doing maintenance, and during the maintenance, your father just discovered something big.
Jimo Yanzhou: You still dare to say that your system is not a defective one when it is under frequent maintenance? How can a regular system be offline all the time and under frequent maintenance?
System: I told you I discovered something big, do you want to listen?
Jimo Yanzhou snorted coldly, with a look of impatience: If you have something to say, just say it, don’t keep me in suspense here.
Seeing how impatient he was, the system also looked at him with disgust and said coldly: Your cannon fodder fate seems to be particularly bright, like a big light bulb, very, very bright.
Jimo Yanzhou: What do you mean? Are you saying that I am a cannon fodder with a lot of highlights?
How can this damn system describe him like this? Can't we just say he is cannon fodder? He has been working hard to change his fate, and the trajectory of the plot has changed a lot.
System: Before, you were a cannon fodder who appeared in less than three sentences and then disappeared. Although you are still a cannon fodder now, your ranking has moved up a lot. In other words, you are a cannon fodder with more highlights, more interesting than ordinary cannon fodder. The impression of you as a cannon fodder has begun to form in the plot consciousness.
Jimo Yanzhou was stunned: So what does this mean?
The system paused: Are you stealing my lines?
Jimo Yanzhou: ...
System: So what does this mean? This means that you may become a cannon fodder with a three-second chance to show your face. Don't underestimate this three-second chance to show your face. It is often this three-second chance to show your face that can leave a good enough impression on people as long as your acting skills are good enough. As long as you leave a good impression on people, you want your team to create some momentum for you, buy some traffic, buy a hot search...
Jimo Yanzhou: ...
I really have no idea what this damn system is talking about. It seems to be out of tune. Jimo Yanzhou let out a long sigh. This system is really useless. It's annoying even when used to kill time.
The system seemed not to understand Jimo Yanzhou's disdain for it, and continued chattering on for a long time. Finally, it concluded with one sentence: If you work harder, you might be able to become a high-level cannon fodder, like Feng Tinghai.
After listening to a bunch of nonsense from the system, Jimo Yanzhou finally heard the last sentence. He was stunned and asked in confusion: Do you know about Feng Tinghai?
System: I’ve said that I’m a serious system that knows everything about astronomy and geography, is well-read, and is extremely talented... Why do you look a little unhappy? Okay, okay, let me talk about business.
Seeing Jimo Yanzhou's ugly face, the system estimated that he was thinking of words to scold him, so he quickly said: Ting Fenghai is the cannon fodder in You Shu and Jimo Liaoxian's plot, including the entire Cangwu Sect. Jimo Liaoxian is the male protagonist of the world, You Shu is the official female protagonist assigned to the male protagonist, and the ending is to ascend to heaven with the male protagonist, but... eh... that's not right...
The system suddenly went silent again.
Jimo Yanzhou called the system twice, but there was no response from the system. It was probably in data maintenance mode again. He never expected that his system was such a useless piece of junk.
Zhou Yun listened to the conversation between the system and Jimo Yanzhou calmly. The information was almost the same as what Nan Yanche told her. She didn't understand why someone like Jimo Liaoxian, who used despicable means to get a high position, could break through the realm and ascend? Didn't his Tao heart become unstable because he harmed so many people?
"If you want to leave here, you have to go deep into the earth veins. The deeper you go, the more dangerous it is. You two follow me, and I will protect you." Feng Tinghai's low voice sounded. He turned around and glanced at Zhou Yun, signaling her to follow closely and not run around.
Zhou Yun nodded at him.
After Feng Tinghai finished speaking, he walked ahead alone and soon walked into the depths of the river.
The further we went down, the colder the air became. The light was dim, as if a faint light was shining through the stone wall, and there was a rustling sound coming from the stone wall.
Feng Tinghai suddenly stopped and protected Zhou Yun and Jimo Yanzhou behind him.
Zhou Yun frowned as he heard a strange sound in the quiet space, similar to the sound of reptiles crawling in the dark.
"This sound sounds like the sound of a reptile crawling." Jimo Yanzhou said nervously, holding Zhou Yun's hand tightly, "Yun'er, stand behind me." I will protect you.
The reptile slowly moved on the wet stone surface. When one could see its appearance clearly, it was a pitch-black monster with a wide-open mouth, which gave people a creepy and chilly feeling.
Jimo Yanzhou suddenly felt the blood in his body boiling and his heart skipped a beat. It was too... too... horrible.
The system exclaimed: This is a Cuban crocodile! It's so big.
Jimo Yanzhou's mind was in a panic, and he subconsciously stood in front of Zhou Yun. His lips trembled slightly, but no sound came out of his throat for a long time. To be honest, it was the first time he encountered such a horrifying scene, which really impacted his vision and all his senses.
The system was calm for a while, and then continued: This crocodile is ferocious and aggressive, and it is very fast and eats people. If such a powerful crocodile appears in the fantasy world, it must be at least a ten-star and tenth-level monster. It has thick blood, strong defense, and strong aggressiveness. It has at least more than eighty sharp teeth, a long and thin mouth, and its tail is muscular and powerful, but... Fortunately, you have Feng Tinghai, otherwise, if it were just you and Zhou Xiaomei, I'm afraid that not even a bone would be left.
Feng Tinghai's attitude towards the monster was much calmer than Zhou Yun and Jimo Yanzhou. It seemed that he had seen this kind of monster before and didn't think it was anything to be surprised about.
Feng Tinghai said calmly, "It's the Shadow Moon Crocodile. Don't be fooled by its huge size, but it's extremely fast and ferocious. It moves in groups, so it's hard to deal with. You two stand inside my safety shield and don't move."
The crocodile's huge body blocked the entire river channel, and when it opened its mouth, it looked like a terrifying abyss. Its mouth was full of fangs that were extremely sharp and terrifying, and a stale stench of mud rushed towards us, making it impossible to open our eyes.
Feng Tinghai raised his sword and slashed at the crocodile. The killing move was sharp and powerful.
Zhou Yun stared at Feng Tinghai's action of chopping the crocodile with the sword. The huge airflow made the passage shake so much that it seemed like it was about to collapse.
When Feng Tinghai slashed with his sword, a bloody wound was cut on the stiff scales of the Shadow Moon Crocodile, deep enough to see the bone. Even so, the Shadow Moon Crocodile seemed to feel no pain and fiercely bit Feng Tinghai.
Jimo Yanzhou said worriedly, "That crocodile is so fierce, and it hunts in groups. I wonder if Feng Tinghai can handle it?"
"He has been here before, so he has experience. He is not afraid." Zhou Yun's eyes were bright, and he stared at Feng Tinghai intently. The more he looked, the more surprised he became. He murmured, "We underestimated Nan Yanche's strength in the forbidden area before."
When Zhou Yun was communicating with Nan Yanche, Nan Yanche once said that Feng Tinghai's strength was comparable to his. In fact, Feng Tinghai should be slightly weaker than Nan Yanche. If this is true, then Nan Yanche hid his strength when he was in the forbidden area.
Zhou Yun suddenly frowned, as if he had an indescribable feeling.
"What do you mean?" Jimo Yanzhou saw Zhou Yun staring at Feng Tinghai with a shining look in his eyes, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart. He felt a sense of panic that Zhou Xiaomei would fall in love with someone else and abandon him.
"Nan Yanche is Jimo Liaoxian's master, so his cultivation should be higher than Feng Tinghai's, or at least about the same as Feng Tinghai's. But when we broke into the forbidden area and fought him, he only used one-tenth of his strength." Zhou Yun suddenly felt the jade on her waist shining. She brushed her fingertips on the jade, breaking the interactive induction between her and Nan Yanche, and then said to Jimo Yanzhou: "We broke into the forbidden area, which should have been within his expectations. He stayed in the Jimo family's forbidden area and couldn't get out, so he has been waiting for someone to break into the forbidden area."
"Nan Yanche deliberately waited for us to find him? How did he know that we would break into Moonlight Lake?" Jimo Yanzhou's mind was confused for a moment and he was completely out of state.
"He doesn't know we will break in there. He is just waiting for someone to break in. It doesn't matter who it is, as long as he likes it, it's fine." Zhou Yun explained to Jimo Yanzhou, and then said, afraid that he didn't understand, "As long as someone breaks in there, no matter who it is, Nan Yanche will test the intruder. If he is not satisfied, he will kill him at worst. Then he will wait for the next person, and wait until he finds the person he likes."
"You mean to say that Nan Yanche is using us." Jimo Yanzhou thought that in the fantasy world, the strong are respected, and all they need to do is practice hard and have both talent and opportunity. Little did he know that those people had so many twists and turns in their minds.
"He told me that he was plotted against by Jimo Lexian. Jimo Lexian led him to Moonlight Lake and made him food for the demon dragon. Later, he swallowed the demon pill and became a half-demon. Jimo Lexian must have known about this. Jimo Lexian trapped Nan Yanche in Moonlight Lake and used his luck to maintain the prosperity of the Jimo family." Zhou Yun always felt that something was wrong before. It seems that her feeling was not wrong. Nan Yanche and she made a contract. She clearly used a master-servant contract, but it turned into an equal contract. I think Nan Yanche deliberately let her succeed. When Nan Yanche is freed from the confinement one day, I am afraid he will turn his face and not recognize her.
