Chapter 134: Flesh Regeneration Pill
The Wei Clan had expected the Chen Clan to catch on eventually—but not this fast. Wei Rong’s mind raced, struggling to come up with a plausible denial.
He couldn’t openly admit to their crimes, not when the situation had escalated so quickly.
He drew in a breath, forcing an expression of outrage onto his face.
"What do you mean, Chen Zi?!" Wei Rong shot back, his voice tinged with forced indignation.
"So now the Chen Clan is resorting to slandering us? If that old monster wants to threaten us by flattening our side of Silverpine City, then of course we have to defend ourselves! Isn’t that only natural?!"
His words carried weight, but his erratic heartbeat betrayed his growing panic.
Chen Zi narrowed his sharp eyes, a cold light flickering behind them.
Though his expression remained composed, fury simmered beneath the surface, restrained but lethal.
When he finally spoke, his tone was eerily even—calm in a way that only made the surrounding air feel heavier.
"It doesn’t matter what you say—we will uncover the truth."
A small pause followed, stretching uncomfortably between them, before he continued, his words slicing through the frigid air like a honed blade.
"Right now, members of our Chen Clan are conducting a citywide investigation, gathering evidence of your clan’s actions. If all you’ve done is kidnap mortal girls for your own twisted entertainment, then perhaps there’s still room for discussion."
The temperature seemed to drop several degrees.
"But if we discover that you’ve been doing something far worse..."
His voice turned sharper, like the edge of a blade drawn against flesh.
"Then this problem will become much harder to resolve, don’t you think, Wei Rong?"
For the first time, Wei Rong visibly tensed, the mask of defiance slipping just slightly.
Lin Feng, who had been silently listening from the sidelines, allowing his injuries to slowly mend, suddenly felt his heartbeat quicken.
His gaze flickered between the two as the weight of the conversation sank in.
Kidnapping young girls?
A chill ran down his spine. He couldn’t fathom the motive behind such an act, and yet, the serious expressions on both sides made it clear—this wasn’t just a rumor.
Beside him, Wei Jun clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. His silence spoke volumes.
He knows something.
Lin Feng’s eyes sharpened, filing away the detail for later.
Meanwhile, Chen Mei, who had been perched atop the Frostvenom Python, suddenly moved.
In one graceful motion, she leaped down, landing beside Lin Feng with an effortless ease that barely disturbed the snow beneath her feet.
Her expression was serious, but her movements held a natural elegance, like falling snowflakes.
She extended her hand toward him, her pale fingers unfurling like the petals of a flower.
"Here, Lin Feng. Take this—it’ll help with your injuries."
Resting in her delicate, jade-like palm was a pure green medicinal pill, its surface smooth and almost translucent.
A faint glow of spiritual energy radiated from it, pulsating with vitality. But more than its aura, what truly stood out was the sheer intensity of its healing properties.
This wasn’t just any medicinal pill—it was a high-grade treasure meant for cultivators on the brink of death.
Chen Mei’s purple eyes locked onto his, unwavering.
"This is a Flesh Regeneration Pill," she explained.
"It’s one of the most powerful healing pills for cultivators below the Foundation Establishment realm. It can restore life-threatening injuries in mere moments."
Lin Feng stared at her, stunned.
She’s... giving me something this valuable?
His mind momentarily blanked.
Even though he didn’t fully understand the specifics of a Flesh Regeneration Pill, he knew one thing—it was rare and precious.
To confirm his suspicions, he shifted his gaze toward Wei Jun, whose expression had darkened. There was frustration in his eyes, but more than that—jealousy.
That reaction alone told Lin Feng everything he needed to know.
His fingers instinctively curled slightly, hesitating as he glanced between the pill and Chen Mei’s calm yet expectant face.
Then, after a moment of silence, he slowly shook his head.
"I can’t accept something this valuable, Chen Mei."
Despite the blood still trickling from his wounds, he managed a small smile.
"Even if I don’t know its full worth, I know I can’t afford it. Besides, I trust my own physique. Give me a few days of rest, and I’ll be fine."
Lin Feng wasn’t just speaking empty words.
Ever since his Blackwood Ruler Physique had advanced to the second level, his physical abilities had undergone a terrifying transformation.
He wasn’t just stronger—his body’s ability to recover had reached an unnatural degree.
If one looked closely, they would see it.
The gashes on his arms, wounds that should have taken days to close, were already knitting themselves back together, the torn flesh pulling tight at a visible rate.
The bleeding had slowed significantly, his body restoring itself even without external aid.
The Blackwood Ruler Physique... it truly is a priceless treasure.
Lin Feng’s eyes gleamed with a quiet reverence.
He once again felt immense gratitude toward the Blackwood Ruler, the powerful mentor whose inheritance had shaped his path.
But Chen Mei wasn’t having any of it.
She shook her head, expression firm.
Then, without a word, she reached forward, grabbed Lin Feng’s wrist, and forcibly pried open his hand.
Before he could react, she had already placed the medicinal pill into his palm.
Her voice was firmer this time, leaving no room for argument.
"You should eat it, Lin Feng. If you don’t, I’m going to be angry!"
She tried to appear stern, her brows furrowing ever so slightly. Yet, instead of intimidation, the expression had an entirely different effect.
Lin Feng found himself momentarily distracted.
Under the soft glow of the snowy landscape, her deep purple eyes gleamed like polished amethysts, striking and mesmerizing.
Her snow-white skin, untouched by the frigid wind, stood in stark contrast against the cold surroundings.
A stray lock of hair brushed against her cheek, the movement so natural that it felt like a fleeting illusion.
For the first time, he truly saw her.
She’s... really beautiful.
Lin Feng had always known that Chen Mei was a beauty, but this was the first time he had actually stopped to appreciate just how breathtaking she truly was.
For a brief moment, his injuries, the wariness, the weight of the conversation—they all faded into the background.
All that remained was the girl in front of him, standing against the endless white of the snowy night.
