After leaving the stone chamber where Feeng Yan was imprisoned, Ling Feng continued onward towards the Inner Island, guided by the memory of the Tianluo Ancestor.
However, just a short distance away, Ling Feng discovered that Tuoba Yan was secretly following him.
"This woman..."
Ling Feng felt helpless, turned around, approached Tuoba Yan, and frowned slightly, "Yan'er, didn't I ask you to temporarily stay with Feeng Chan and the others at the Sea Suppressing Dragon Boat to wait for me?"
Tuoba Yan glanced at Ling Feng, gritted her teeth, and said, "I never agreed to that."
Black lines appeared on Ling Feng's forehead, "This trip is dangerous; there's no need for you to risk yourself with me."
"This is my matter, besides, I can also help you." Tuoba Yan bit her lip and stared intensely at Ling Feng.
"Fine, there's really nothing I can do about you..."
Ling Feng rolled his eyes and suddenly said to someone behind Tuoba Yan, "Oh, Second Miss, you came out so quickly!"
Tuoba Yan turned to look and suddenly felt a numbness on her back; she had been knocked out by Ling Feng with a swift finger strike.
"Sorry about this, although I understand your good intentions, I just don't want a repeat of what happened with Xian'er."
Ling Feng shook his head and sighed, handed Tuoba Yan over to Feeng Chan and the others approaching him, and said calmly, "Second Miss, Brother Feeng, please take care of Yan'er for me. If by dawn I haven't returned, you can go back to the Feeng Family first."
After speaking, Ling Feng leaped forward and headed towards the Inner Island.
"Young Master Ling..."
Feeng Chan supported Tuoba Yan's body, raised her delicate eyes, and looked at Ling Feng's disappearing figure, letting out a gentle sigh.
She was a smart woman and naturally understood that in Ling Feng's heart, she was considered nothing more than an ordinary friend.
Hence, she had to restrain her affection for Ling Feng, even though it might be somewhat difficult.
"Ah, months have passed, and Brother Ling's power has become so formidable."
Feeng Yan patted his round belly, sighed softly, and slowly said, "It seems I must also diligently cultivate to avoid being left far behind by Brother Ling!"
…
Compared to the Outer Island of Tianluo Island, this Inner Island was almost like a dead zone.
Everywhere was filled with the stench of decaying corpses, making one want to vomit.
"What the hell kind of place is this, my god!"
The Despicable Donkey couldn't help but start complaining, "This Divine Beast has visited countless perilous places, yet this wretched place is the hardest to endure!"
Ling Feng shook his head slowly and said, "The opponent we're dealing with this time might be quite formidable. Although as far as I know, he is injured, he is still, after all, the legendary 'Sky Patrol Angel.'
"Sky Patrol Angel?"
The Despicable Donkey's eyelids slightly twitched, "Ling Feng Kid, aren't you serious, you're just now telling me we're up against a Sky Patrol Angel? Do you know what a Sky Patrol Angel signifies?"
"What does it signify?"
Ling Feng's eyes flashed a cold light, and he said coldly, "It signifies a deadly enemy!"
"This Divine Beast gets it, understands everything now!"
The Despicable Donkey studied Ling Feng for a moment, "Kid, turns out you belong to the Heavenly Dao Clan! No wonder, no wonder your talent is so terrifying, you are from the allegedly extinct Heavenly Dao Clan!"
"Yes!"
Ling Feng nodded for the first time, revealing his identity openly to the Despicable Donkey.
Initially, Ling Feng did not trust the Despicable Donkey, even though they had a pact of equality, Ling Feng still couldn't fully trust this Despicable Donkey.
However, as they traveled together, Ling Feng gradually began to truly understand the Despicable Donkey, learning about its nature.
It may be cheeky, but it is definitely loyal!
It has become an inseparable companion to him, also his most trusted ally. So, it does have the right to know all of this.
Perhaps, due to its insight, it may have already guessed as much.
"This matter is actually irrelevant to you, if..."
Ling Feng raised his eyes to look at the Despicable Donkey and said slowly, "Despicable Donkey, if you are afraid, you can leave."
"Tch!" The Despicable Donkey snorted lightly and said dismissively, "Are you joking? This Divine Beast afraid? Even if it's an injured Sky Patrol Angel, let alone at peak state, this Divine Beast is not afraid!"
"Haha, Despicable Donkey, I knew you would help me!"
Ling Feng hooked the Despicable Donkey's neck and laughed heartily, "You, although cheeky on the surface, are quite reliable at crucial moments!"
"Hmph, stop trying to butter up this Divine Beast!"
The Despicable Donkey glared at Ling Feng, "Though next time such a thing happens, at least give this Divine Beast a heads-up! Now I'm so darned nervous!"
Ling Feng grinned, as they were to confront the so-called 'Divine,' although the Despicable Donkey always deemed itself a Divine Beast, it was well aware of its genuine strength.
"Alright, alright, next time I promise to inform you first!"
Ling Feng raised his hand to touch his nose, hoping that if successful, he could kill the hidden Sky Patrol Angel within the Inner Island and obtain its Immortal Root Origin. Perhaps it would enable him to free 'Demon Clan's Queen' Kevli trapped in the Four Spirits Sealing God Stele; though he couldn't entirely trust this witch, having the Immortal Root Origin of the Sky Patrol Angel would at least provide bargaining power.
(PS: See 'Chapter 852: Making a Deal with the Witch!')
Even if taking ten thousand steps back, he finds himself unable to defeat this Sky Patrol Angel, it would help him understand its capabilities, determining its strength and enabling him to return someday with assurance to eliminate it.
At any rate, encountering a solitary Sky Patrol Angel is rare, whether driven by clan enmity or to forge an alliance with the Demon Clan's Queen, he must take this risk.
As he went deeper into the Inner Island, guided by the memory of the Tianluo Ancestor, Ling Feng deftly avoided all arrays in the Inner Island and arrived at the dwelling of the Sky Patrol Angel.
From a distance, Ling Feng saw a red-haired man cross-legged upon a massive rock, exceedingly burly, with a flame symbol on his brow identical to the 'Divine Fire Seal' displayed by the Tianluo Ancestor that day, yet more solidified. A mere glance evoking a sensation akin to burning flames.
"Heh, humans, since you're already here, why skulk around in secrecy, do you really think, with your meager tricks, you can hide from this seat?"
The Sky Patrol Angel's eyes suddenly opened.
What sort of eyes those were—indifferent to all beings, scorning everything, without a trace of human emotion.
His gaze focused on a giant stone, and with just a mere glance, the rock was set ablaze.
Ling Feng and the Despicable Donkey, hiding behind the stone, immediately soared up, dodging the Sky Patrol Angel's flames to the left and right, while that enormous rock turned to ash, entirely annihilated without a trace.
