Chapter 289: Escalation of Doubts
Chapter 289: Concerns escalate
Along the way, Ling Feng found that the problem was getting worse and worse.
It’s not that Ling Feng has discovered the problem, but that he still can’t understand the purpose of Feng Ji’s escort this time, and now he is about to reach the imperial city.
So far, there are only two answers. One is that I have thought too much. This time, the escort is just to let myself go back, but this possibility can basically be ruled out.
Ling Feng observed along the way that although these people were indeed the imperial army, their behavior was very suspicious, and he had conducted temptations without hesitation. Although they could not test their purpose, they were sure that they had problems.
Because Ling Feng had the powerful escort of the Black Pearl and the strength of the crew, he could run rampant, so he didn't care what they did and waited for them to come.
But they have not moved for a long time and have now entered the sphere of influence of Tianxiang Imperial City. Well, the sphere of influence is not equal to the sphere of the Imperial City. If they take action now, the army of the Imperial City will definitely be destroyed.
If this escort is for this purpose, then there is only one explanation and another answer.
This is what Ling Feng didn't want to guess the most. The army of the imperial city was the protagonist of the purpose this time, otherwise how could he be sent here?
But is this possible? How could the army of the Imperial City plot against Ling Feng? It would have to pass Long Jue, because the army of the Imperial City is directly under the jurisdiction of Long Jue.
If it is true, then only Long Jue did it for some reason and was forced to do something even more terrifying. Long Jue could no longer make a decision.
However, this speculation is like a fantasy, which makes people unbelievable. Ling Feng has only been away for four months, and with Long Jue's military power and the support of the emperor, it is impossible for such a situation to occur.
Absolutely impossible!! It must be because I was thinking too much. This was just a very ordinary escort and had no other purpose.
There is a tributary connection between Heilongjiang and the Imperial City. Turning in from this tributary, you can reach the Imperial City. From there, you can reach a place dozens of miles away from the Imperial City. The nearest road is the dock there.
When the five military ships began to turn into this tributary, they found that Ling Feng's Black Pearl had no intention of entering, but continued to move forward.
"What are he doing? Go and turn around and catch up with him." Feng Ji immediately ordered to turn around when he saw this situation.
Soon, the five military ships once again approached the Black Pearl and surrounded him with a clamping formation.
"Second Young Master, where are you going?" Feng Ji shouted at the Black Pearl. The sound spread throughout the ship. I believe Ling Feng could hear it.
"General Feng, thank you for sending me here. You can go back." Ling Feng said calmly.
"No, my mission has not been completed yet. Sending you to the imperial city is considered to be completed." Feng Ji was a little anxious and said in a tough tone.
"General Feng, your mission has been completed. If you are afraid of something, go directly to the imperial city to report to the emperor, saying that I will go to Heishi Mountain." Ling Feng said lightly.
"How can this be done? The second young master should not make it difficult for me to do it. I'd better go to the imperial city with me." Feng Ji said hurriedly. How can this be done? I've already arrived here and I'm just one step away from completing the task. Will I be wasting all my efforts here?
"General Feng, don't say you are a small side general. Even if the emperor comes by himself, he will still ask me to go to Heishi Mountain first, instead of forcing me to go to the imperial city." Ling Feng said coldly.
"Dareful Long Tian, you dare to disrespect the emperor. Come with me to the imperial city to apologize." Feng Ji thought that catching Ling Feng's sorrowful foot could make Ling Feng surrender.
Ling Feng looked at Xue Qing and Xue Fei, and could see the smile in their eyes. Is this guy joking? Ling Feng was not disrespectful to the emperor once or twice, and he was still in front of him.
"Hey, are you an alien?" Ling Feng asked seriously.
"??" Alien? What does it mean? Is there a country called alien on this continent? Feng Ji looked at the people next to him in confusion and found that they were all the same puzzled.
"From your appearance, how can you even know the most basic common sense? Everyone in Tianxiang knows the relationship between me and the emperor (Zhao Benshan's advertising slogan), except for you, an alien." Ling Feng looked regretful, as if the other party was an unsuccessful idiot.
Idiot, uh, Feng Ji was a little angry: "No matter what your relationship with the emperor is like, you have violated the laws of the empire and insulted the dignity of the emperor. Hurry up and surrender."
"Seventh Princess, what is he talking about?" Ling Feng asked Xue Fei on the side, and his voice spread throughout the area.
"I don't know!" Xue Fei said in cooperation. Her voice was the same as Ling Feng, spreading with Dou Qi. Ling Feng had already taught her, but she was not as free as Ling Feng, making people feel that she was not as good as Ling Feng's use. Once she used it, she would make people feel it.
Ling Feng taught her very simple reason. He just wanted to make her louder, even if she didn't speak loudly, she could hear it and also made her look delicate, unlike her sister who always shouted.
"Have I violated the imperial law?" Ling Feng continued to ask.
"No!" Xuefei replied.
"General Feng, you should know that she is the seventh princess of the empire. She said I don't, so why do you use your identity to convict me? Are you more noble than a princess?" Ling Feng asked lightly.
"She is yours, so she will naturally help you speak. You can go to the imperial city with me and let the emperor decide." Feng Ji still bit her.
"That's right, she is my person, and there is no doubt about it. This means that I am the Seventh Princess's husband and the emperor's son-in-law." Ling Feng said this, and grabbed Xuefei's hand and raised her hand to let Feng Ji on the opposite side see clearly.
Xuefei was stunned by Ling Feng's sudden words. He said it was my husband. This was the first time he had recognized my identity, and it was in front of so many people.
At this time, Xuefei's face was already red and it was almost dripping, and at the same time, her head was lowered to the chest, so she could be shy.
When Ling Feng saw Xue Fei like this, he just smiled, and then said coldly to Feng Ji: "Even if you don't have this identity, can you convict me of the second son of the Long family and the son of the Imperial Marshal? What is your identity? Even if you are an Imperial General, you have to give me aside. You, a small general, dare to offend us like this. Do you know that now is the following crime? I can kill you at any time."
Damn, when it comes to being domineering and lawless, who can compare with Long Tian? Even if I don’t have that kind of personality, I still have memories. Long Tian wants to kill you a side general is as simple as killing an ant. Besides, you also offended the princess of the empire. This crime will make him kill you without worrying about the consequences.
"You..." Feng Ji seemed to have discovered the problem. After all, the other party's identity was too special. Even without Ling Feng and Xue Fei, a Xue Qing could not bear it. The identity of the Bai family was also very serious. According to common sense, his identity must not go against their intentions, but now he has repeatedly violated it and has to surrender it. This is completely unreasonable.
It seems that this has aroused the other party's suspicion. According to the information, the second son of the Long family is a hidden figure. He will see through a small detail, let alone such a big flaw.
Feng Ji didn't know that as early as the beginning, Ling Feng had already begun to doubt his motives, but his strong self-confidence and absolute defense ability, allowing Ling Feng to let his behavior.
It is impossible to defeat the Black Pearl on the water. Even if the entire empire's navy came over, they would still be unable to do anything to the Black Pearl, and even her defense could not be broken.
During the month that he came, Ling Feng once again transformed the Black Pearl, allowing some of the sea clan's technologies to be integrated into it, making its already extremely powerful defense system even stronger, and even the forbidden spell can resist it for a while.
This is still the case where the Black Pearl only defends, and it has not included the situation where her attack system is fully opened. As long as the attack is fully opened, it is simply invincible in the world. There are only two possibilities to defeat her. One is Ling Feng voluntarily, and the other is the energy exhaustion, but this is impossible.
With Lingfeng exploding three-quarters of the sea clan's crystal inventory, the Black Pearl can be used for ten thousand years. Well, Lingfeng has replaced the energy core and is now using crystals, not magic cores.
If you put a large amount of crystals without using them, you can use them as expensive and rare magic cores. That is a prodigal act. To put it bluntly, it is an idiot act.
"General Feng, I am very suspicious of your purpose this time. If you want to flatter, then you are afraid of being wrong." Ling Feng was blunt in his suspicion.
"Second Young Master, don't misunderstand. The last general is just loyal to the mission. The emperor personally ordered you to return to the imperial city first." Feng Ji's words were a little powerless and could not play much role. He was just a try-making mentality.
"No need to do much, please get out of the way, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences." Ling Feng said to Feng Ji, then left the edge of the boat and stopped talking to him.
"Xueqing, Seventh Princess, it seems that something has happened in the imperial city. Let's go back to Heishishan to see the situation first." Ling Feng told Xueqing and Xuefei, and then ordered to ignore the five military ships. If they did not let go, they would force a breakthrough.
