Chapter 165 Torture
However, before Medusa could continue her tirade, Xiao Feng reverted to his original demeanor and said to her in a serious tone, "Alright, for your sake, I'll let them off this time."
Upon hearing Xiao Feng's words, the four elders in the distance were so moved that they wept bitterly! It hadn't been easy; Xiao Feng and Medusa had finally remembered them. In the short time that had just passed, they had suffered greatly and been in immense pain.
Not only did they have to endure immense physical pressure, pain, and torment, but they also had to watch Xiao Feng and Medusa flirt and banter in front of them, as if the two of them had forgotten their existence. This was a blow to them that was no less than terrifying physical pressure.
This blow was a double blow to both their bodies and minds, causing them immense suffering. Although the period may seem short, it felt incredibly long to them!
But they couldn't even call out. If Xiao Feng hadn't remembered them, who knows how long they would have had to wait!
However, after what had just happened, they had seen through some things. It was obvious that the mysterious powerful man named Xiao Feng had taken a liking to Medusa, which was why he had returned here to support her and was even intentionally trying to get close to her and befriend her. However, Medusa didn't seem to have truly accepted him. If that was the case, then why had Medusa come to inquire about entering the Serpent People's Treasure Vault?
This question also puzzled several elders, who had not received an answer for a long time.
Little did they know that Medusa's entire behavior was due to Xiao Feng, or rather, because of his strength and pressure. In their minds, since Xiao Feng wanted to pursue Medusa, he should naturally try his best to impress her. However, they never imagined that the Xiao Feng before them was a complete blockhead, utterly inexperienced in pursuing women and acting entirely according to his own ideas. No wonder things weren't going smoothly!
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" After Xiao Feng withdrew his oppressive aura, the four elders breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Although they vomited some blood, they actually looked better than before after expelling the blood that had accumulated in their bodies, though of course, they were not as good as they were in their prime.
Looking at the group of people in front of him, Xiao Feng warned, "This time it's only because of Medusa. If there's a next time, I won't hold back!"
"Yes, yes, senior, rest assured, such a thing will never happen again!" The four elders nodded in agreement upon hearing Xiao Feng's words.
No way! This experience has already been unforgettable enough for them. If they had to go through it again, wouldn't they all lose their lives here? They couldn't bear that!
If the previous group only thought that Xiao Feng was powerful, but did not have a clear understanding, then now, after experiencing this incident, they have a clear understanding of Xiao Feng's strength—he is someone they cannot provoke!
The opponent hadn't even used any fighting techniques, yet their mere presence alone had inflicted this unbearable agony upon them. What terrifying strength must that require? They dared not even imagine.
"Now, I wish to take a look inside the Snake People's treasure vault. Is that permissible?" Xiao Feng said with a playful tone.
Although the four elders didn't understand why Xiao Feng was so obsessed with the snake-people's treasure trove—logically speaking, a powerful figure like him should have an extremely rich collection and wouldn't be interested in the snake-people's possessions—they dared not refuse Xiao Feng's request.
"Yes, yes, you can go anytime, senior," the group said obsequiously.
Seeing this, Xiao Feng didn't say anything, but instead looked at Medusa beside him, "How is it? Is it okay now?"
"Let's go." Medusa ignored Xiao Feng, gave the four Supreme Elders a complicated look, and then left.
Watching the two leave one after the other, the four elders wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, exchanged glances, and didn't know whether to cry or rejoice.
The tears were naturally for their own misfortune—encountering Xiao Feng, this jinx, who had caused them unnecessary injury. But where did the joy come from? Naturally, it was also because of Xiao Feng. Although their first meeting with him wasn't pleasant, they could see that Xiao Feng liked Medusa. And with this connection, they weren't worried about Xiao Feng and them having no interaction.
If Xiao Feng were to marry Medusa in the future, the snake people would have found a great backer, and they would also have found a great backer. The bottleneck that had been troubling them for so long might be broken, allowing them to take another step forward!
The biggest concern among them was whether Xiao Feng's interest in Medusa was just a passing fancy or a long-term commitment.
Xiao Feng had no idea what the four elders were thinking, nor did he want to know. If things went smoothly, he could indeed become husband and wife with Medusa and help the snake people and the four elders. After all, with his strength and influence, these were minor matters!
Following Medusa to a unique building, Medusa formed a hand seal and sent a mysterious mark toward the void in front of her. Ripples appeared in the void, and then there were no more phenomena.
Although this change was very small and very rapid, it was still impossible for Xiao Feng to hide from it. Upon seeing this, Xiao Feng immediately understood that a special formation had been set up here, and Medusa's handprint was the switch to activate this formation.
Although this formation was powerful, it was nothing in Xiao Feng's eyes. With his knowledge, he naturally knew of countless formations that were far more powerful than this one. Moreover, if he wanted, he could simply use brute force to break through the formation in front of him, and he could even bypass the formation and enter the snake-people's treasure vault without alerting anyone.
Xiao Feng glanced around, a smile appearing on his face before he looked away. At that moment, the guards hidden in the shadows protecting the snake-people's treasure vault also noticed Xiao Feng's meaningful look. Immediately, an absurd thought arose in their minds: "Could it be that this person has discovered us?"
Although they didn't know Xiao Feng, they were certainly familiar with Medusa, so they naturally wouldn't stop the two from doing so. As for why Xiao Feng was able to come here, that wasn't something they needed to consider.
Moreover, judging from Medusa's behavior, she doesn't seem to be bewitched at all, let alone coerced!
