Chapter 407: Skill Inferior

houldn't go together. It would attract Sang Sheng's attention; he's been watching us all the time! Besides, the meeting outcome is uncertain this time. You should stay here and help our father."Zhou F...A muffled groan echoed from the depths of darkness, fading along with the girl's disappearance. The surrounding gloom dissipated slowly, like a curtain drawn back, and ripples once again heard the sounds of gunfire and curses. In the distance, flames shot into the sky, indicating that the border police had arrived to provide support.

At the edge of the ripples lay John, unconscious. Beneath a fallen, twisted tree were four other teammates, also unresponsive. Communication had been cut off before this, clearly they had entered the alternate dimension set up by the little girl.

While Feng Junyi's evil spirit chose the strongest John among them to possess, wanting to torture and kill Sharon, fortunately, after Sharon died, she absorbed her soul to strengthen herself.

This also explains the four previous murders. The perpetrators were not the same person, but their methods were identical. As for the deceased women, besides surface evidence, there was no clue for this ripple mage to follow up on. There's definitely Liang Feng's involvement here.

Having been freed by Liang Feng, Feng Junyi, who was inherently corrupt and bloodthirsty, naturally became the blade in Liang Feng's hands. After becoming a demonic spirit, he not only did not repent but instead became even more rampant in harming young women, and Liang Feng made no attempt to stop him.

After seeing the four murdered women, Lian Yi had a vague guess. Because of the same murder method and technique, she had seen hundreds of files of this kind in her country. She also knew in advance that Feng Junyi's soul had been replaced, so it was easy for her to connect all the dots together.

And Feng Jinyi did this, of course, to provoke and retaliate against the police. The evil deeds were committed using someone else's body; someone was taking the blame for him, and the evidence was conclusive. From a legal standpoint, even if these people weren't actively committing crimes, they were still perpetrators of the crime.

The ripples didn't go to see the four perpetrators because she was very sure that the mage who helped Feng Junyi had definitely helped him clean up his tail.

Actually, when she saw Feng Junyi at the hospital, she already had her suspicions. The sorcerer who helped Feng Junyi leave was very skilled and didn't alert her as the caster. All she could think of was someone from the same school.

While Liang Gang is still lying in the hospital paralyzed, Yu Biyao died, Gao Yang was backlashed by evil spirits, becoming an ordinary person, unable to use spells anymore, let alone leave the country. All clues point to Liang Feng who has already passed away.

Actually, as early as when she was handling the case of Yu Bi Yao's haunted house, she had already pointed suspicion at Liang Feng. She speculated that he had not died, but simply did not know for what reason, it was inconvenient to appear in front of people again, so he used death as the best way to hide himself.

Liang Feng's contracted spirit, a young girl, wasn't on the same side as her master. She wanted to use the isolating formation to strengthen herself and then break free from the contract's constraints. However, she was one step behind and had her plans foiled by Lian Yi. At the last crucial moment, in order to survive, the young girl threatened Lian Yi with the souls of twelve women who had been brutally murdered.

Given Lian Yi's Ancestor's temperament, she definitely wouldn't leave herself any vulnerabilities. However, since she had suspicions, she chose to release the girl whose power was reduced by two-thirds, wanting to see if it would lure Liang Feng out.

And Ripple's deductive reasoning is very strong, she has almost figured out the truth of the matter.

After faking his death to escape, Liang Feng remained hidden in the shadows, plotting everything for his daughter. However, plans don't always go as expected. The arrival of the tasker Ripple disrupted everything, leading to the rapid downfall of the Feng family. Losing the protection of his superiors, he was forced to temporarily seek refuge abroad.

Back home, he was a dead man. Abroad, he used some means to create an identity for himself and quietly went into hiding until the evil spirit girl returned to his side, at which point he followed the clues to find Feng Junyi lying in the hospital.

"As expected of my disciple, even the punishment is so ruthless."

Liang Feng was delighted because such mental torture made Feng Junyi easier to evolve into an evil spirit. Therefore, he used a scheme like "Li Dai Tao Jiang," effortlessly freeing Feng Junyi from that body and using the soul of Feng Lao, Feng Junyi's direct relative, to take his place in punishment. This allowed Feng Junyi to serve him.

Having gained his freedom, Feng Jinyi desired revenge. His motives went beyond mere venting of frustration; he aimed to empower himself. Those four individuals were merely practice for him. Ultimately, he set his sights on Sharon because she had survived, becoming a formidable witness against his acts of brutality. Therefore, she had to die.

This is also why Ripples immediately had Johnny take her to Sharon after learning about the four murders.

Sharon was involved in a drug trafficking case that was about to be closed, and she was one of the operatives. When Ripple saw her, he noticed that her face was very grim, as if the sun was setting, so he decisively took her place. Fortunately, it was Ripple who replaced Sharon, otherwise, their squad would have been wiped out in this mission, and they might not even have found their bodies.

To Lian Ri's surprise, the drug cartel had even hired mages for protection. The souls of the deceased became nourishment for Liang Feng's cultivation of evil spirits, and these evil spirits allowed him to gain greater profits.

Ripples' eyes were a bit cold. She raised her hand and flicked four golden lights into John and the others who were unconscious. Then, she followed Liang Feng's direction and chased after him.

Liang Feng ran swiftly, he never thought he'd be in this situation. He was being chased by his own disciple, who was stronger than him.

This is where he was puzzled. Three years ago, Wu Lianyi hadn't been this powerful, let alone the dagger now resting on his shoulder. It clearly wasn't an ordinary weapon. Where did she get such a powerful artifact

Liang Feng was more insightful than Liang Gang. He didn't dare to grab the dagger with his hand, but as he ran, the dagger sank deeper and deeper, and the blood flowing from his body increased faster and faster. Along with the dagger entering his body, there was also a trace of evil spirit, which immediately became a feud with the profound energy in his body.

Liang Feng collapsed directly to the ground, his body feeling alternately cold and hot as it became a battlefield where Xuan Qi and demonic energy clashed.

The ripples guided themselves along the blade and easily found Liang Feng, who was gasping for breath on the ground.

"Liang Feng, you're getting old!"

The word "ripple" was heartbreaking, and it was the reality that Liang Feng was most unwilling to face.

"Hmph! Don't get too cocky, if I can't live, you won't have a good ending either."

Liang Feng suddenly flashed a cruel smile, then threw a pill into his mouth. The aura around him immediately surged, and he drew the dagger from his shoulder with a swift motion, hurling it towards Lian Yi. Then, he lunged forward with all his might.

Ripples waved her hand to accept the dagger, then flung out a red ribbon. The red ribbon immediately widened and grew larger, protecting its owner in the middle.

While ripples had already begun to form a seal with both hands, this time she held nothing back. She formed the Nine-Direction Demon-Exterminating Array, encircling Liang Feng from all directions.

"It's impossible!"

Liang Feng really didn't want to admit it, he didn't even have the ability to form such a powerful exorcism formation.

"So I said you're old!"uan's family also joined the ranks of watering, but this time the main force was replaced by Lianyi and Song Dachuan. Huiniang stayed at home to take care of Tiger, while taking care of the family veg...
