Chapter 668: Chapter 656: The Land of Old Friends!
Shi Feng remembered his past life on the Beimeng Grassland after realizing where he was, and recalled an old acquaintance he had met here.
Then, Shi Feng asked Huoo Junxin, "Do you know if Beimeng City still exists after the catastrophe?"
"You want to go to Beimeng City?" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Huoo Junxin was first startled, then replied, "Beimeng City certainly exists, I myself am from the Huoo Family of Beimeng City!"
"Huoo Junxin!" Just at that moment, within this realm, a cold, scornful shout rang out, and suddenly, not far in the void, a young woman in purple attire with a delicate face slowly materialized.
Her face was covered with frost, her coldness comparable to that mad dog Ouyun from before!
"Lin Lang!" When Huoo Junxin heard that shout and saw the figure in purple, his face changed dramatically as he cried out in alarm.
The woman named Lin Lang coldly snapped at Huoo Junxin, "Huoo Junxin! You actually are such a disgusting pretender, you... just you... still want to ally with our Li Family through marriage! Ridiculous, truly ridiculous! I actually fell for someone like you, who is neither man nor woman—a dead rabbit!"
"No! Lin Lang, I..." Huoo Junxin, upon being discovered in his current state by the woman, tried to speak to explain himself but was at a loss for words and didn’t know how to justify himself.
"Huoo Junxin, you play me like this! Your Huoo Family, just wait to be obliterated, to utterly vanish from within Beimeng City!" The woman continued coldly, and then her figure moved, turned, and she broke through space at high speed toward the north.
"No! Lin Lang!" Hearing the woman’s words and watching the purple figure swiftly disappear from his sight, Huoo Junxin screamed out in desperation.
In Beimeng City, the influence of his Li Family and the ranks of the Li Family Martial Artists far surpassed their Huoo Family, an existence their Huoo Family absolutely could not afford to offend!
The woman Lin Lang was the beloved daughter of the Li Family Patriarch, Li Yuan. If this incident were reported back to the Li Family, then their Huoo Family would fall into a plight from which there was no return.
"No! She absolutely cannot be allowed to live and return to the Li Family! Otherwise, everything is finished!" Thinking of these things, considering the life and death of the Huoo Family, Huoo Junxin immediately hardened his heart, his left hand slowly released Ouyun whom he was holding tightly, and his right hand gripped his long spear once more.
Immediately after, Huoo Junxin’s figure broke through space at high speed, chasing after the distant purple figure, shouting as he pursued, "Lin Lang, wait for me, listen to my explanation, it is not what you think!"
As Huoo Junxin broke through space in a frenzied chase, just then, a white figure suddenly swept by in front of him and rushed ahead of him.
Shi Feng turned his head around, looking at Huoo Junxin, and spoke indifferently, "Off you go, dead rabbit!"
"You!" Once again insulted by Shi Feng, Huoo Junxin’s grip on his long spear tightened even more as he shouted back at Shi Feng, "I told you, you don’t understand us, please do not insult me!"
Following that, Huoo Junxin suddenly realized that he couldn’t compare with the other’s flying speed. He quickly remembered his earlier intentions, then called out to Shi Feng ahead, "You, please wait a moment!"
This time when Huoo Junxin called for Shi Feng, he used "you" to the more respectful "you."
"Hmm?" Hearing that dead rabbit calling out again from behind, Shi Feng’s space-breaking figure paused, turned back, and looked at the dead rabbit, asking, "What is it?"
"Can you, please, help me catch up to her? This favor, I, our Huoo Family, will never forget!" Huoo Junxin pleaded with Shi Feng, his eyes filled with entreaty.
After hearing Huoo Junxin’s words, Shi Feng thought about their previous conversation and his face immediately grew cold. He looked at Huoo Junxin with disdain in his icy gaze and asked, "You want to kill her?"
Under the pressure of Shi Feng’s icy stare, Huoo Junxin immediately felt a chill spreading throughout his body, "I... I..."
Shi Feng’s cold gaze still fixed on Huoo Junxin, and with a thought, a pale white handprint suddenly appeared on Huoo Junxin’s left cheek, then it violently slapped down on his face.
"Slap" "Ah!" A crisp sound mixed with a scream echoed through the heavens and earth, as the pale white hand sent Huoo Junxin flying to the ground!
With a "thud", his body heavily crashed onto the desolate ground.
Huoo Junxin lay there like a dead dog, prostrate on the ground, then he lifted his head and covered his left cheek with his hand. A bright red imprint of a palm had appeared on his cheek.
And at that moment, Huoo Junxin saw the white figure that had slapped him flying away into the distance. The purple figure that he had been chasing after had also vanished.
"No! I can’t let Li Linlang return to Beimeng City! That person not only insulted me and Ouyun, but he even struck me. He is heartless, so do not blame me for being unrighteous!" Huoo Junxin thought bitterly to himself, ignoring the pain on his face and body. He once again tightened his grip on the long spear in his hand and his figure broke space once again.

Although the Beimeng Grassland had been destroyed and turned into the wasteland it was now, Shi Feng still used the memories in his mind to fly towards the north through the void. Gradually, an ancient city appeared in Shi Feng’s line of sight.
"Beimeng City!" Seeing the ancient city, there was not much difference from the Beimeng City in his memory. It seemed that after so many years, even though the Beimeng Grassland had disappeared, this Beimeng City was still the same Beimeng City from before, unchanged.
That year, when he was not yet the world-shaking Emperor Nine Nether, he had come to this place to hone his skills. In this Beimeng City, he had met someone who had left a deep impression on his heart. He wondered if that person was still in Beimeng City now, and if he was, how was he faring!
Shi Feng came to Beimeng City mainly to visit that old friend and did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble. He then concealed his presence and descended towards the city gates.
At the entrance of Beimeng City, there were few people around. Besides a handfew of people entering and leaving, there were several guards wearing green Battle Armor standing guard. Perhaps due to the state of the Beimeng Grassland, Beimeng City was no longer as prosperous as it had been in the past.
After handing over ten Primordial Stones as the city entrance fee to those guards, Shi Feng walked into Beimeng City.
Upon entering Beimeng City, Shi Feng still saw sparse signs of life. When he had visited Beimeng City in the past, it was a bustling hub, crowded with people, bustling with voices and teeming with thousands upon thousands of people.
Now, although there was still a stream of people on the streets, it was incomparable to what it had been like before. The former prosperity was nowhere in sight.
However, the buildings in sight were almost exactly the same as those in his memory of Beimeng City.
Following the roads from his memories, Shi Feng crossed the long, ancient street, took a left turn, walked down another dilapidated street, and then a large mansion appeared in Shi Feng’s line of sight!
