Amor a través del tiempo - Capítulo 71
"Uncle Zhao, this mansion has already been given to the Dark Prince by the Li family. Why are you still here?"
It turned out that this man was Zhao Feier's brother, the original owner of this mansion, and the Zhao family's in-law whom Lei Ran intended to deal with. At this moment, Zhao Jiong suddenly appeared, which probably meant that nothing good was going to happen. A mocking look flashed in Lin Feng's eyes as he sat on the sidelines and watched the tigers fight. Everything seemed to be developing smoothly.
"As the original owner of this place, I have something to offer to the Dark King. Please accept it with a smile. However, if this gift is seen by others first, it will lose its novelty. Please forgive me, Thunder King." Zhao Jiong smiled slightly, raising his eyelids slightly to look at Lin Feng, his eyes filled with a hint of mockery, clearly showing his dislike for her.
Because she threatened Zhao Feier's position? Lin Feng pursed her lips, but she felt that something was wrong. She sensed something strange in the air, as if she had fallen into a trap, but she couldn't figure out what it was.
Is Zhao Jiong plotting something? Has Lei Ran noticed it again? Lin Feng glanced at Lei Ran, but the latter remained completely calm.
"In that case, General Zhao, please present the gifts."
"Please follow me into the mansion. It's right at the entrance," Zhao Jiong said with a smile. He clapped his hands, and the red lacquered gate was fully opened from the inside. The spacious mansion was empty. Lei Ran raised an eyebrow slightly and walked inside. Lin Feng also wanted to see what Zhao Jiong was up to. There shouldn't be any danger at the entrance. If there were any problems, Lei Ran's troops were behind them, and they could retreat immediately. So he followed him inside.
Behind the two, a large group of palace maids and eunuchs, including Bei Chentian, followed them in, but they did not find anything strange in the room.
"Uncle Zhao, we're already inside. Where's your gift?" Lin Feng frowned slightly as he looked around at the empty space and asked in a cold voice.
"Don't you know what my gift is?" Zhao Jiong laughed loudly. Suddenly, a large number of dark soldiers emerged from the walls of the entire mansion, each holding a powerful arrow. The once silent mansion suddenly erupted into chaos. Many soldiers in iron armor lifted the wooden planks from their underground hiding places and rushed out, holding cold, menacing swords and spears!
An ambush! But wouldn't such an ambush be completely ineffective?
As Lin Feng was wondering, the guards that Lei Ran brought quickly rushed to the door, each carrying a fine bow and arrow, but they did not charge in.
The battlefield seemed to be missing something. Lin Feng frowned, his dark eyes widening suddenly. That's right, the shouts of battle!
Why didn't these two teams, who should have been fighting, shout any battle cries? The absence of battle cries means they had no will to fight, which means...
Just then, Lei Ran suddenly grabbed at Lin Feng, but Bei Chentian, standing beside Lin Feng, swiftly swept out with a palm strike. In the blink of an eye, the two men had exchanged more than ten blows. Bei Chentian fiercely protected Lin Feng, preventing Lei Ran from taking advantage of the situation. Seeing that he could not achieve his goal, Lei Ran angrily snorted and flew out like a wild goose returning to its nest. The soldiers who followed swarmed forward and blocked the doorway, trapping the panicked palace maids and eunuchs, along with Lin Feng, inside!
"Bei Chen Tian, will you remove the mask yourself, or will I remove it for your corpse in a moment?"
Under the cover of two rows of guards, Lei Ran's eyes were full of mockery. His chiseled face became even colder, and his eyes were fixed on the maid disguised as Bei Chentian. His expression seemed to know everything, and he revealed a victor's smile. Zhao Jiong stood calmly next to Lei Ran and bowed his head slightly. The meaning behind this gesture was quite obvious.
Zhao Jiong is actually Lei Ran's man! The Zhao family, a powerful maternal relative with military power, is actually Lei Ran's trusted confidant!
Lin Feng was somewhat shocked, but at the same time he understood. No wonder there were no shouts of killing; they were actually in cahoots! Her plan to sit back and watch the tigers fight was a joke. This was clearly a trap they had set for Bei Chen Tianxia, deliberately luring him out. This man had actually calculated that Bei Chen Tian would come to Tiancheng and come looking for her.
It turns out that Lei Ran's behavior was not natural. For the past three days, he had probably been setting up everything at Chaolin Mountain, intending to trap Bei Chen Tianzhen here, and she was used as bait!
"Lei Ran, you're still a bit short of trying to snatch someone from me. As for my corpse, you probably won't even see it." With a light, casual laugh, Bei Chentian didn't dodge. He peeled off the human skin mask from his face and threw it away, revealing his stunningly beautiful face. Facing thousands of sharp arrows, he remained calm and fearless.
Lei Ran's face was quite gloomy, his eyes fixed on Lin Feng. He suddenly laughed: "Bei Chentian, don't you know who betrayed you? Do you still believe this woman?"
Chapter 71 Counterattack
"To be honest, I know her personality better than you do, so I really don't believe it." Bei Chentian grabbed Lin Feng's hand and laughed heartily, "But does it matter? If you keep her by your side because you believe her, then you will definitely lose to me, because even if she openly betrays me, I will still want her to stay by my side!"
With a flick of his thick, sword-like eyebrows, the stunningly handsome man narrowed his phoenix eyes, exuding an aura of heroic spirit and boundless elegance.
"Idiot!" Lin Feng rolled her eyes and cursed, but she was secretly delighted. Who could blame her when his face looked so dashing and his words so emotional? Even the most rational woman is still a woman and wouldn't dislike this feeling.
Lei Ran's face immediately darkened, and he was so angry that he almost jumped up and down: "Bei Chentian! I think there's something wrong with your brain!"
Bei Chentian smiled and said, "King Lei, you flatter me. My brain is malfunctioning, and yours isn't much better. Otherwise, why don't you shoot us dead with arrows?"
Lei Ran was stunned by his question and couldn't speak. Why didn't they shoot them dead with arrows? It's all because of that woman, Lin Feng, over there!
"Don't think I wouldn't dare!" Lei Ran's old face flushed red as he shouted.
"Try it if you dare!" Bei Chentian continued with a smile.
Enraged, Lei Ran fiercely raised his right hand, and the row of archers behind him immediately drew their bows and nocked arrows. Bei Chen Tianjun's brows twitched suddenly, and he grabbed Lin Feng and pulled her into his arms, shielding her with half of his body.
Seeing this, Lei Ran was furious, wishing she were the one who had tried to shield her from the arrow: "Bei Chen Tian, let go of me!"
Bei Chentian raised an eyebrow, then tightened his embrace even more, laughing, "I'm not letting go, what are you going to do about it?"
"I never thought that the ruthless and cold-blooded King Beichen, who doesn't care about women, could fall in love. If you die protecting this inhuman woman, what will the heroes of the world say when they talk about how you, a great hero, died so pathetically?" Lei Ran gritted his teeth and suddenly laughed, a laugh that was very glaring.
Bei Chentian glared back coldly: "Hmph, the Thunder King is hesitating to kill your greatest enemy because of a woman. If this joke gets out, it will probably be quite a laughing stock."
"Lan Feng has always been my woman! What's so funny!"
"She is Lin Feng, not Lan Feng. Lin Feng is my Dark King!"
The two men stared at each other, and the atmosphere became tense for a moment.
The two greatest rulers of the land are actually holding back for a heartless woman; if word got out, all the heroes would laugh themselves to death! At least for now, they're practically being laughed at by each other!
"Hmph, I wondered what was going on. Turns out they're using her as a hostage, and they're making it sound so high-sounding. Lin Feng, you actually believe him." After a long while, Lei Ran continued with a cold laugh, his face still dark.
"Lei Wang, sowing discord is useless. Even if there is a lot of distrust between Lin Feng and me, there will be no misunderstandings, and there is no need for explanations. So I still stand by what I said." Bei Chentian's smile grew even brighter, and his gaze at Lin Feng became even more sexy and charming: "Want to snatch her from me? In your next life!"
For the sake of his own eye health, Lin Feng decided not to roll his eyes anymore. He pursed his lips and snorted, which was tantamount to acknowledging his contradictory statement to others.
That's right, they are both very suspicious people. To say that they completely trust each other is naturally impossible, but there will never be any misunderstandings, because they know each other too well. They know that they can predict each other's next move without needing any explanation, and they understand what he will and will not do.
For example, now that Lin Feng saw the smile on Bei Chentian's face, she was no longer worried about her safety.
Lin Feng was all too familiar with that smile. Whenever Bei Chentian made a plan, he would always smile like that, looking completely confident. Judging from his expression, he seemed no surprise at this scene. Lin Feng would never believe that he had no backup plan.
Perhaps this could be called a different kind of trust? It's not blind trust based on trust itself, but rather trust based on understanding, understanding of his abilities and strength, and making a judgment before believing.
Although Lin Feng was somewhat annoyed that Bei Chentian had once again failed to tell him the truth, he was also increasingly curious about what Bei Chentian was planning to do.
"Bei Chen Tian, if you want to waste your time here with me, I'll keep you company! Anyway, I have plenty of time in the world!" Seeing that his provocation had failed, Lei Ran angrily waved his sleeve: "Lin Feng, you'd better think it over. I won't take your life, and I can still give you what you want. If you don't want to die, leave Bei Chen Tian!"
