Chapter 1305: Interconnected plants

Source text: NovelFull, chapters all.

Everybody at the table was astonished. Surprisingly, that guy was flirting with Tang Yi Yi. He was fixedly staring at her and even dared ask her for her name. How insolent! She was one of three strongest young cultivators of Dragon Mountain and she had many suitors.

"Are you blind? Who are you to ask for Miss Tang's name?" a gigantic hand crashed onto Lin Pheng's body and cracking sounds appeared.

Lin Pheng turned around and looked at the person. Lin Pheng's eyes were pitch-black and demonic intent emerged from them. How ice-cold! That person's eyes were suddenly sore and he looked petrified.

"Piss off!" said Lin Pheng in a gentle voice. Even though he said it gently, the young man felt like he had been hit with a stick on the head. His soul was shaking and he immediately fell down on his bottom, barely able to breathe.

"Pfew." his heart was pounding, he couldn't stand a single glance.

"Who are you?" asked that person. He couldn't know who Lin Pheng was, but it seemed like Lin Pheng wasn't using a skill to hide his cultivation level and they still couldn't see through him.

Tang Yi Yi was surprised, the people who came to the ninth level were all strong, that guy was one of the ten strongest young cultivators of the empire. He was about as strong as her and surprisingly, he couldn't stand a single glance from Lin Pheng.

"I mean you no harm. If I'm not mistaken, you must be You You's little sister." Lin Pheng didn't take to heart what had just transpired. You You and Lin Pheng had met because of the Great Competition of Xue Yu, so he didn't know the other people from the Tang Clan. They were a large clan in the capital city of Dragon Mountain, but since Tang Yi YI and You You looked so similar, he had guessed that she was You You's little sister.

Tang Yi Yi looked surprised and frowned. Lin Pheng was right, she was You You's little sister. Tang You You was the eldest and she also had a little sister, Yi Yi, and a little brother: Tang Rui.

"Do you know my sister?" asked Tang Yi Yi.

"I do." said Lin Pheng smiling and nodding. Then he asked, "Has your sister ever come back?"

Tang Yi Yi frowned at Lin Pheng and asked, "Who are you?"

"My name is Lin Pheng!"

"Lin Pheng!" Tang Yi Yi was astonished.

"Lin Pheng?" the crowd frowned, they also knew that name.

"Lin Pheng from the Great Competition of Xue Yu!" thought many people. They finally remembered. He had ranked first, so it made sense that he was so strong.

"You're really Lin Pheng?" asked Tang Yi Yi.

Lin Pheng laughed and condensed his godly awareness, transmitting some memories to Tang Yi Yi.

Tang Yi Yi inspected the memories and didn't look as scared anymore. She just smiled in a resplendent way and said, "I'm taking you to the clan."

"Alright!" said Lin Pheng skeptically, but nodded. Then, they left the restaurant.

Tang Yi Yi remained silent and Lin Pheng followed her silently. Since she took him to the clan, it meant that she had a reason to.

The Tang Clan wasn't far from their restaurant. They soon entered a large courtyard and many people were surprised to see the strangers.

"Yi Yi, who's that?" asked a middle-aged man.

"Uncle Lin, they're my friends!" replied Tang Yi Yi. The middle-aged man didn't say anything, but many people quickly arrived in the courtyard.

"Sister, who is he?" asked a young man who was about eighteen and looked unhappy.

"Tang Rui, go and find our father." said Tang Yi Yi.

"If you want to see our father, then you must talk to me first." said Tang Rui looking at Lin Pheng. He ran towards Lin Pheng as quickly as he could. He had broken through to the fifth Xuan Qi layer, which in Dragon Mountain, wasn't so bad for a young man.

"Hand Strike" shouted Tang Rui furiously.

"You're causing trouble!" said Tang Yi Yi, but she didn't do anything to stop him.

Lin Pheng didn't mind, since that Tang Rui was calling Tang Yi Yi sister, it meant he was Tang You You's little brother.

"Bzz!" The hand reached Lin Pheng, but didn't touch him.

"If you want to stay with my sister, you must ask my permission!" shouted Tang Rui furiously. He turned into two shadows and ran towards Lin Pheng.

"Tang Rui, stop!" shouted Tang Yi Yi.

However, Lin Pheng just slightly moved.

"Thousand Shadows!" shouted Tang Rui furiously. He turned into a thousand wind clones, which all threw themselves at Lin Pheng at the same time. No matter what Tang Rui did though, he couldn't reach Lin Pheng.

"Tang Rui, that's enough!" shouted an aggressive voice. Tang Rui immediately stopped and looked at Lin Pheng furiously.

"Uncle!" said Lin Pheng bowing in front of the middle-aged man.

"Dad, I still want to try." said Tang Rui when he saw what Lin Pheng was doing. He probably wanted to ask for Tang Yi Yi's hand!

Tang Rui's father said coldly, "I'm the one who's going to try!" Then the man's silhouette flickered as he threw himself at Lin Pheng. A myriad of wind clones were now closing in on Lin Pheng.

"boom, boom, boom." a myriad of fists bombarded Lin Pheng's body, however, he still looked calm, as if nothing had happened.

"Break!" shouted the man. The ground beneath them even cracked and the courtyard shook, but Lin Pheng didn't even frown. Tang Rui was astonished, his father's attacks couldn't affect Lin Pheng at all.

"How scary!" When the father saw that his attacks weren't affecting Lin Pheng, he sighed and said, "Why are you not attacking?"

"I wouldn't want to fight against you, Uncle." said Lin Pheng smiling wryly. How could he fight against You You's father?

"hmph, did you feel guilty for You You?" asked Mister Tang.

"Pfew." he couldn't help but smile wryly when he heard Mister Tang. The Tang Clan definitely had some news about You You, so he asked, "How is You You?"

"What's going on?" Tang Rui suddenly became anxious. He looked at Tang Yi Yi and Tang Yi Yi said, "He's Lin Pheng!"

"Lin Pheng!" whispered Tang Rui, he still looked furious. "The one who ranked first at the Great Competition of Xue Yu. The one who defeated Di Ling, Duan Wu Dao and the other strong younger cultivators from years ago."

"You're well informed." said Tang Yi Yi. Then, her father left and said, "Come with me."

Lin Pheng followed him with Tang Yi Yi trailing behind. They arrived in a courtyard where a girl seemed to live, "That's where You You lives."

Lin Pheng nodded and glanced around: there were trees, a nice smell, overall it was a beautiful place.

"Those seeds were planted recently!" whispered Lin Pheng. Mister Tang walked towards Lin Pheng, looked at the seeds and said, "Indeed, they're interconnected too. You You planted them a short time ago and said that if you came, I should show them to you."

"You You planted them!" Lin Pheng's eyes twinkled. You You was alive and those plants were interconnected with her, which meant they couldn't be separated.

Lin Pheng didn't know what it meant. You You had always stayed with him, even when he turned into a demon she had taken risks to stay with him, but she never told him how she felt. Now, she had left these plants and a message for Lin Pheng.
