The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 583: The Wicked Youngster!

Ling Feng never expected that his journey to Wangduan Mountain in the Western Wilderness would lead him to meet Yue Yunlan in Duling City.

Perhaps, this was fate.

"So, if you're Mr. Ling, then he must be..." Qiao Qiao's eyes twinkled as she connected the dots between the despicable donkey's behavior and his identity. Her small mouth formed an "O" shape as she clearly figured out who this donkey really was.

"So, it's you two ugly freaks!" The despicable donkey, ever sharp, instantly guessed the identities of the master and servant duo and nearly revealed his true donkey form.

"Bah! You're the ugly one!" Qiao Qiao huffed in response. Now that she knew who the despicable donkey was, she was no longer as restrained as before.

The onlookers around them were stunned. After all this, it turned out these two groups knew each other!

However, the despicable donkey calling the two ladies ugly freaks made many doubt his sense of aesthetics. Despite their faces being veiled, just from the pair's eyes and graceful figures, no one could reasonably associate them with being ugly.

At this point, Hong Li awkwardly chuckled and said, "So, it turns out that you're friends with my junior sister. Senior, would it be possible to lessen Junior Brother Yu's punishment?"

"Hmph, who's friends with them? Go play somewhere else!" The despicable donkey showed Hong Li no mercy, completely dismissing him.

"Pfft!" Qiao Qiao couldn't help but laugh, teasing, "Senior Brother Hong, just let that scoundrel take his punishment. He totally deserves it!"

"Ah..." Hong Li sighed lightly, realizing that this mission had already encountered setbacks before it even began.

"Miss Yue, what brings you here?" Ling Feng asked curiously.

Yue Yunlan glanced around and then bit her lip, saying, "There are too many people here. Let's find somewhere else to talk."

"Very well." Ling Feng nodded, instructing the waiter to bring their food to a private room. He then led Yue Yunlan and Qiao Qiao upstairs.

As for the despicable donkey, he remained seated boldly at the inn's entrance, keeping a close eye on Yu Qian. If that guy dared to slack off, the despicable donkey was ready to let him taste his infamous Melon-Smashing Fist.

Tuoba Cheng, not being the type to intrude on sensitive matters, chose to stay downstairs, mingling awkwardly with the other Cangqiong Sect disciples.

After a short while, Yue Yunlan explained in detail to Ling Feng the entire story of how she had to save the prince of the Tianyang Empire, Nangong Yin.

Ling Feng shook his head and scoffed, "The Tianyang Empire is too aggressive. Their prince gets into trouble, and they have the nerve to blame our Tianbai Empire for it!"

"Exactly!" Qiao Qiao chimed in angrily. "If it were up to me, I'd say, let's go to war! Who's afraid of whom?"

"Qiao Qiao, watch your words!" Yue Yunlan frowned and said sternly, "War between two nations is not as simple as you think. War means bloodshed and sacrifice. My father opposes war because he doesn't want to see unnecessary loss of life."

Qiao Qiao stuck out her tongue. "I get it. I was just saying."

Ling Feng rubbed his nose, surprised by Yue Yunlan's broad vision and deep understanding, especially considering she was so young. She was truly worthy of admiration.

"If there's anything you need help with, Miss Yue, feel free to ask," Ling Feng said with a calm smile.

Although it might delay him for a few days, this matter was related to the potential war between two nations that could affect countless innocent lives.

He never considered himself a hero, but he couldn't just stand by and ignore such matters.

"Thank you, Mr. Ling," Yue Yunlan replied with a radiant smile. As she removed her veil, her beauty shone like sunlight, and her smile was like a gentle spring breeze that could intoxicate those around her.

"By the way, Mr. Ling, what brings you to the Western Wilderness? I remember that your Wenxian Sect is located in the North," Qiao Qiao asked with a playful, ambiguous look at Ling Feng. She giggled and added, "Did you come all this way because you knew where my lady was and chased after her? Wow, how romantic!"

"Qiao Qiao!" Yue Yunlan's face flushed red, her ears burning with embarrassment as she glared at the mischievous girl.

Qiao Qiao stuck out her tongue and put her hands behind her back, deciding to stay quiet.

Ling Feng quickly shook his head and explained, "It's not like that. I happened to have some business at Wangduan Mountain. The other friend besides the despicable donkey traveling with me is from Wangduan Mountain. He claims to be from the Tiance Clan."

"Wangduan Mountain, huh?"

Yue Yunlan blinked, her blush still lingering as she bit her lip. "I've heard of that place before. The Tiance Clan's history predates the division of the four nations in the Dongling Region. However, I thought they no longer interacted with the secular world. I always believed they were just a myth, something made up. I never expected Wangduan Mountain to actually exist."

"Hehe." Ling Feng chuckled softly and changed the subject. "There's no time to waste. Let's gather information about Nangong Yin. If he's already dead, it will be hard to avoid a war between the two nations."

"Mm-hmm," Yue Yunlan nodded, and then immediately instructed Qiao Qiao to call for the senior brothers, including Yu Qian, to discuss the search for Nangong Yin.

Adding Ling Feng to their group was undoubtedly a great advantage. At the very least, that Brother Lu by Ling Feng's side could fight extremely well!

...

That evening, the group returned to the inn and gathered in Hong Li's room. Those with little experience, like Lu Shaoan and Fang Ning, had failed to gather any useful information and were even scammed out of a few crystal coins and elemental stones. However, Hong Li lived up to expectations. After decades of experience, he managed to uncover the entire story of how Nangong Yin had been captured.

It turned out that Nangong Yin, the so-called young prince, was nothing more than a scoundrel. Within just three days of arriving in Duling City from the Tianyang Empire, he began to reveal his true nature as a tyrant.

He bullied men, harassed women, and behaved lawlessly. Initially, he targeted wandering cultivators, but as time passed, he grew bored of bullying those with low status and began setting his sights on the daughters of prominent families in Duling City.

The martial artists in Duling City generally weren't very powerful, and Nangong Yin had three Spiritual Element Realm experts accompanying him. As a result, he showed no restraint in oppressing the families in Duling City. Not only did he take advantage of their daughters, but he also targeted their wives!

His actions were wicked beyond words!

However, as the saying goes, "There's always someone better." During one of Nangong Yin's visits to the Lei family, a powerful clan in Duling City, he set his sights on the eldest son's beautiful wife. In an act of extreme audacity, he instructed his men to abduct her and then violated her.

If that weren't bad enough, he even carved the words "Nangong Yin Was Here" across the woman's chest. This humiliation would drive anyone to madness!

The eldest son of the Lei family, a man of strong character, couldn't bear the disgrace his wife had suffered. Enraged, he gathered his men and confronted the scoundrel, giving him a savage beating.

The elders of the Lei family joined in, and Nangong Yin's subordinates were all killed one by one. With that, the arrogant young prince was captured by the Lei family and locked up.
