BXBX NOVEL Chapter 152 - Wake-up Beating
Chapter 152 Wake-up Beating
Chen Xue was only a First Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist, but she had also condensed 99 strands of Astral Power. No matter how fast he was, she should be able to react. However, as for Lin Feng? Chen Xue could not resist the two slaps from him at all.
At this moment, all the inhuman experts, including Lu Wei, re-evaluated Lin Feng’s strength in their hearts. Judging from some videos of Dragonlith City and some information about Stone City alone, they seemed to have underestimated Lin Feng.
In reality, Lin Feng’s speed was also very fast. It was just that compared to his strength, his speed was much inferior. Even so, his speed still far exceeded that of ordinary Metamorphic Realm martial artists, let alone when he unleashed his Astral Power just now.
Lin Feng could no longer tolerate Chen Xue. This insane woman seemed more like a crazy shrew than a Metamorphic Realm martial artist. Perhaps Chen Xue had already gone insane once Zhou Yun had died. It was one thing if she just wanted to die, and another to try to drag everyone in the South Mountain Base to die alongside herself.
Hence, Lin Feng gave Chen Xue two slaps. It was impossible to wake her up if he did not use force.
After suffering two consecutive slaps, Chen Xue’s face convulsed. She had never been “humiliated” like this in public before. More over, she was a dignified inhuman expert herself!
Boom.
Ninety-nine strands of Astral Power erupted. Chen Xue used all she had to unleash her power. The innate talent she had awakened was also a very ordinary fire innate talent. In reality, talents like fire, water, storm, and so on were the most common innate talents, and the easiest innate talents to awaken.
Chen Xue’s entire body was engulfed in flames. In addition, the eruption of the Astral Power in her body was indeed very shocking. She had already lost her mind, and even developed killing intent towards Lin Feng.
After all, no Metamorphic Realm martial artist could withstand the “humiliation” of being slapped.
“Stop it, Chen Xue. Are you crazy?”
Lu Wei’s heart clenched when he saw Chen Xue erupt. He was not afraid that Chen Xue would kill Lin Feng. Judging from the strength Lin Feng had displayed just now, he far surpassed Chen Xue. However, he was afraid that Chen Xue’s insanity would completely anger Lin Feng, and Lin Feng would accidentally injure Chen Xue.
However, before Lu Wei could even make a move, the aura erupting from Chen Xue’s body came to a sudden halt.
Bang.
Lin Feng’s expression turned hard. He merely lifted his leg and landed a kick directly on Chen Xue. The Astral Power that Chen Xue had just unleashed could not withstand the power of Lin Feng’s kick at all.
Chen Xue was sent flying and landed heavily on the ground.
However, this was not the end. Lin Feng continued to chase up to Chen Xue, and gave her another hard slap to the face.
Slap.
The crisp sounds were incessant. With every slap, Lin Feng would give a reason.
“Chen Xue, as an inhuman expert guarding the South Mountain Base, you ignored the base’s order and left the base. You deserve to be beaten!”
“Chen Xue, you disobeyed your superiors and attacked the Chief Commander. You deserve to be beaten!”
“Chen Xue, you incited the martial artists in the base and affected the unity of the base. You deserve to be beaten!”
“Chen Xue, I can’t find a reason anymore, but I just want to hit you and wake you up!”
Lin Feng spared Chen Xue mercy at all. With one slap after another, Chen Xue no longer had any Astral Power to protect her body. Hence, her face was already swollen, and she looked even more miserable.
“If you’re so strong, why don’t you go kill the Pangolin Beasts? You can only deal with a woman like myself!” “Now you remember that you’re a woman? When you left the base without permission earlier, did you remember that you’re a woman? When you incited all the martial artists to kill the Pangolin Beasts, did you remember there are women among those martial artists?”
“I can tell you clearly that you are very ignorant. What you have done will have disastrous consequences for the South Mountain Base.”
“Perhaps no one has ever dared to mention Zhou Yun before you. Then, let me tell you today. Your Brother Zhou—the former Chief Commander of the South Mountain Base, Zhou Yun-if he hadn’t died in battle, he would have been tried at court!”
“It’s because of his radicalism, his recklessness, and his insanity that the South Mountain Base suffered heavy losses. Fifteen inhuman experts and countless ordinary martial artists were killed, and even the South Mountain Base itself was almost breached. Zhou Yun was a complete failure. He was the one who doomed the South Mountain Base! He’s guilty!”
Lin Feng’s last sentence made Chen Xue bellow like she was mad, “No, no, Brother Zhou is a hero. How can he guilty? I won’t allow you to slander Brother Zhou. You have no right!”
Chen Xue’s teeth gnashed so hard that she almost bled. She gritted her teeth, wishing she could devour Lin Feng alive. She would never allow anyone to slander Zhou Yun!
“I’m slandering Zhou Yun? That’s just as well. I’ll let you see the truth today. Look at the people around you. They are all martial artists at the South Mountain Base. See if they think Zhou Yun is a hero.”
Lin Feng grabbed Chen Xue and tossed her to the ground.
Chen Xue lifted her head. Her disheveled appearance seemed particularly vicious. She looked at the surrounding martial artists and shouted, “All of you, tell the truth. Brother Zhou isn’t guilty, he isn’t!”
The surroundings fell silent all of a sudden. No one dared to step forward to speak. However, Lin Feng did not interfere and only looked at Chen Xue coldly.
Chen Xue’s gaze became even more insane. There was even a trace of pleading in her eyes. “You tell Lin Feng, tell him that Brother Zhou isn’t guilty. He’s not! Brother Zhou is a hero. Have you all forgotten? It was Brother Zhou who led you to defeat the Pangolin Beasts. Brother Zhou even died in battle. He’s not guilty!”
Chen Xue shouted hysterically. Even her voice was a little hoarse, but still no one spoke. There was only silence, a horrible silence. Chen Xue saw the “truth” reflected in the gaze of the surrounding martial artists.
She cried. She cried terribly. The mighty inhuman expert was crying. The omnipotent and nigh perfect Brother Zhou in her heart was only a hero to her alone. The martial artists of the South Mountain Base might not hate Zhou Yun, but no one thought that he was a hero.
Zhou Yun was the reason so many martial artists were killed, and the entire South Mountain Base was almost been destroyed. How could martial artists at the base think Zhou Yun was a hero?
That disaster had been completely avoidable, and was entirely the severe consequences brought about by Zhou Yun’s obstinacy.
However, no one had ever dared to say this to Chen Xue, not even Lu Wei.
Today, Lin Feng said it. Although he had not been in the South Mountain Base for long, and usually lived in seclusion aside from the inspection in the first three days, from the inspection during those three days, Lin Feng discovered that the 15 battalions which had suffered the heaviest losses were actually filled with discontent towards Zhou Yun.
The 15 battalions were almost crippled, and even their leaders were killed in battle. All of this was due to Zhou Yun’s rashness. It was only because Zhou Yun was dead that no one pursued the matter.
“Chen Xue, it’s about time you wake up…”
Lu Wei went forward and helped Chen Xue up. Chen Xue had been taught a hard lesson by Lin Feng today and lost all her dignity. However, he knew that Chen Xue was more concerned about what Lin Feng had just said.
Lin Feng’s words shattered the pride in Chen Xue’s heart and shattered her conviction. It was even very likely that Chen Xue would never recover from this setback.
However, Lu Wei could not blame Lin Feng. After all, if Lin Feng did not give Chen Xue a “wake-up beating”, it might be the greatest hidden hazard to the South Mountain Base.
“This is bad. The Pangolin Beasts are here. There are lots of them!”
Suddenly, the martial artist in charge of guarding the base hurriedly came in front of Lin Feng to report to Lin Feng and the various battalion leaders.
The Pangolin Beasts were here again!
