"Master Lu."
In a very ordinary igloo in the glacier and snow valley, Yan Ge respectfully greeted Lu Chenfeng, who was sitting in the middle of the room. Lu Chenfeng nodded slightly, his eyes closed without even raising his eyelids. Yan Ge didn't take it seriously and stood aside silently.
This kind of greeting was something that the servants who served him did every day when he was the second prince Qingfeng. After going to Beidou Academy, he was no longer surrounded by these things. But now in the bitter cold land, the station of the Fourth Dark Road has become something he has to do every day.
Lu Chenfeng didn't like such daily routine greetings, and even felt a little disgusted with them. But Yan Ge insisted on doing this since he came to the bitter cold land. He really thought about Lu Chenfeng completely. Lu Chenfeng didn't like to be disturbed by such greetings, but he would appreciate this perseverance. Sure enough, from the initial disgust to noncommittal, Lu Chenfeng now occasionally speaks to Yan Ge at times like this. For this strong man who is devoted to his cultivation, this is a rare act of kindness.
It was cold in the igloo because there was no fire. Lu Chenfeng was still wearing the same single clothes he wore when he left Beidou College, and the damage and bloodstains on it had been repaired and removed by his powers. He liked the bitter cold in the Bitter Cold Land, which seemed like a continuous attack by the cultivators of the Perception Realm. He felt that this was a good environment to maintain his cultivation, so he deliberately did not light a fire and wore single clothes.
The cold wind howled outside the house, and some chaotic and urgent footsteps suddenly came from the wind. Lu Chenfeng remained unmoved, but Yan Ge's mind couldn't help but wander.
These days, he has been paying close attention to everything here in the Fourth Dark Road. Everything is so orderly, just like the Dongdu that the Lin family helps the Yan family manage.
This sudden chaos was the first time in the eighty-seven days since Yan Ge arrived here. There must be something going on.
Such variables are what Yan Ge has always wanted to see, and only variables can allow him to find opportunities. He has no intention of being a pawn of the Lin family so peacefully.
It's just that now, it's inconvenient for him to move. Even if Lu Chenfeng didn't respond to greetings from Lu Chenfeng every day, he would wait quietly for an hour. This was his habitual attitude.
So he didn't move after all. He didn't even use his powers to try to find out the information outside. Compared with these, he still felt that maintaining a consistent attitude in front of Lu Chenfeng was the most important thing.
But not long after, he heard footsteps coming this way and stopped when he reached the door of the igloo.
"Mr. Lu, Lin Baiying and Lin Tianyi would like to see you." A voice came from outside the door. It turned out to be the head and eldest son of the Lin family.
No one dares to ignore Lu Chenfeng's existence. The Lin family was also observing Lu Chenfeng's temper very carefully. At this point, they were very successful and quickly gave up the routine of trying to please and win over. They provided every convenience to Lu Chenfeng, and apart from that, the only thing they abided by was: never disturb him.
So when they come to bother you now, it undoubtedly means that there is something very important and you can't do it without interrupting.
"Come in." Lu Chenfeng replied and opened his eyes at the same time.
The Lin family father and son walked into the igloo. Yan Ge and the others who were standing nearby didn't seem to notice, let alone say hello. They stopped as soon as they entered the door and looked at Lu Chenfeng together. Without any nonsense words, they got straight to the point: "Lu Ping is here."
"Oh?" Lu Chenfeng's expression changed. This is what he cares about most, because Lu Ping has six souls.
"So it's time for Mr. Lao Lu to make a trip." Lin Baiying said.
"Where?" Lu Chenfeng slowly stood up and asked.
"It's unclear at the moment. I only know that they have chased into Jiechuan." Lin Baiying said.
"Okay." Lu Chenfeng nodded and walked out of the house. Lin Baiying and Lin Tianyi bowed and opened the door. After Lu Chenfeng walked out, they looked at Yan Ge together, still maintaining a respectful look, and bowed to greet: "Second Prince."
Yan Ge said that he no longer deserved the title of prince, but the Lin family never changed the title. This made Yan Ge understand more and more that his status as prince was very important to the Lin family. But of course he would not expose this point directly, but just asked: "Why is Lu Ping here?"
"According to the reports from the spies ahead, Guannai Academy should still be gathering at Yanmen Pavilion to plan, but somehow Lu Ping has already arrived here first." Lin Boying said.
"Is he alone?"
"A few people are traveling with us." Lin Boying replied.
Yan Ge nodded and didn't ask any more questions, because he knew that Lin Baiying wouldn't tell him anything really important. For example, he didn't know how the Lin family negotiated with Lu Chenfeng in the end when he promised to Lu Chenfeng the secret about the six souls penetration. In short, he did not see any further contact between the two parties after that, and Lu Chenfeng has remained behind closed doors until today.
So... the Lin family has put the key on Lu Ping?
They knew that Lu Ping was difficult to handle, and they also saw what Lu Chenfeng wanted, so they said that Lu Ping, the experimental subject of six soul penetration, was the key to the secret of six soul penetration? When Lu Chenfeng was asked to deal with Lu Ping, Lu Chenfeng would definitely do his part.
So what then?
Yan Ge didn't believe that the Yan family just allowed these two strong men who they couldn't control to fight. They must have some back-ups. Whether Lu Ping defeats Lu Chenfeng, or Lu Chenfeng defeats Lu Ping, and then both lose, they must have a backup plan. But what is this backhand? Yan Ge looked at the Yan family father and son who were extremely respectful in front of him, but he couldn't figure it out at all. He was already very familiar with the Lin family, but after arriving in the bitter cold land, he began to get to know the first family in the continent again.
"Does the Second Prince have any other instructions?" Lin Baiying asked at this time.
"No more." Yan Ge smiled. His sense of powerlessness over the situation did not make him lose his composure. His will and character had been severely tempered during the years when he was exiled from Beidou Academy.
"Resign." The Lin family father and son said and were about to leave, but Yan Ge followed with a smile on his face: "Together."
The three of them walked out of the igloo, and Lu Chenfeng didn't go far. He didn't impatiently display any special powers, he just walked in the direction of due south with normal steps.
Yan Ge followed decisively without saying hello to the Lin family and his son.
He didn't know what the Lin family's intention was with this arrangement, but it was clear that he could only side with Lu Chenfeng. So let's just go with Lu Chenfeng, so that no matter what the Lin family's intentions are, he will be by the side, always watching and waiting for opportunities.
As for whether the Lin family will stop him, this is not considered. It was not in vain that he maintained a relationship with Lu Chenfeng so carefully and thoughtfully. In a few quick steps, Yan Ge had already rushed behind Lu Chenfeng.
"Master Lu, I'm with you," Yan Ge said.
Lu Chenfeng didn't answer and just continued walking forward.
His acquiescence was also an attitude. As long as he didn't object, no one would dare to stop Yan Ge.
"Father?" Lin Tianyi looked at Lin Baiying as if asking.
"Let Tianbiao go with us." Lin Boying said.
"Yes." Lin Tianyi nodded.
"Come with me to take a look at the new experimental subject." Lin Baiying said as he turned and walked west.
