The Urban Hiding Genius

2No one had expected Jiang Feifan to say such a thing in the end. Everyone's heart was in turmoil.    

    

"But what if someone dies?"    

    

Sun Jie asked carefully.    

    

Jiang Feifan shook his head without any expression. "Don't worry. I won't."    

    

The servant who said that she was caught did not shout anymore and just stood there quietly.    

    

Although everyone on the scene quietened down, their faces were full of worry.    

    

They could vaguely see that the foot of the person was tied up by a thick plant root.    

    

This scene was somewhat strange. Putting aside the reason why the root would suddenly wrap around a person's feet, just the fact that the root could grow so long was not right.    

    

The pond was filled with goose warming stones. There were no plants. Even if it was just a gap, there was not a single grass between the gaps. However, the root grew out from the gap.    

    

"This rhizome is most likely the root of the lotus in the pond." After Jiang Feifan observed his surroundings, he pointed at the lotus in the pond with his index finger.    

    

"That shouldn't be the case! This root is twice as thick as an ordinary lotus."    

    

Sun Jie grew up in this villa. When she was young, she mischievously asked her grandfather to help her dig out lotus roots. How could she not know how thick a normal rhizome was? She thought Jiang Feifan was talking nonsense.    

    

" It shouldn't be. This root suddenly burrowed out of the ground. It doesn't make sense. It's not surprising that it can grow so thick. " Jiang Feifan took out a small knife from his pocket and walked over.    

    

Crack!    

    

The moment the rhizome was cut by the knife, it twisted and a small amount of dark red liquid flowed out from the cut.    

    

"This is blood? Why is there still a fishy smell?"    

    

Jiang Feifan looked at the rhizome thoughtfully and helped the person beside him up.    

    

Because there was very little juice flowing out, other than Jiang Feifan, no one else noticed. Otherwise, the pot would have exploded by now.    

    

When the person was helped up and saw the severed rhizome twitching, he felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. In addition, he had been frightened when he was suddenly entangled with the rhizome. At this moment, he even ran away as if he was fleeing.    

    

Jiang Feifan looked at the red spot at the end of the rhizome and muttered, "It can't be that, right?"    

    

Suddenly, Jiang Feifan seemed to have sensed something. His heart tightened and he suddenly raised his head to look at the pond.    

    

The lotus flower that was obviously curled up earlier had unknowingly bloomed, and the lotus leaves that were rolled up around it had also stretched out.    

    

The color of the flower petals that bloomed was incompatible with the other lotus flowers in the surroundings, and there was a paleness in the pink. As the lotus leaves extended outwards, they also gradually became narrower and narrower.    

    

At this moment, the circle of lotus flowers had an indescribable strangeness.    

    

Jiang Feifan's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly retreated to the shore. He bit his finger, and a drop of blood instantly appeared. After that, Jiang Feifan waved his hand at the pond in front of him.    

    

The drop of blood turned into threads, and slowly fell in front of everyone.    

    

Jiang Feifan took out the jade pendant from his body. Jiang Feifan squeezed his finger towards the broken piece of jade, and another drop of blood fell onto the jade pendant.    

    

Suddenly, a golden light shone from the jade pendant, and one could vaguely see the shape of a golden dragon.    

    

"From now on, don't cross this line, and don't walk around casually. Don't panic when anything happens later. "    

    

Jiang Feifan casually drew a line with his leg in front of the thread formed from blood.    

    

After saying that, Jiang Feifan walked towards the pond, his breathing becoming somewhat hurried.    

    

The dragon Qi in the jade pendant had been ignited by him. With the protection of the dragon Qi and the enhancement of his blood, Jiang Feifan was not worried that the people of Sun family would be in danger.    

    

At this moment, a lotus flower in the pond was growing bigger and bigger. Furthermore, it was still swaying elegantly. Its movements were indescribably graceful. Coupled with the pink flower petals that revealed a pale white color, it was indescribably strange. Black gas was also emitting from the water surface around the lotus flower. Moreover, it was becoming more and more dense.    

    

It was said that when the lotus came out of the mud, it was uncontaminated. However, the stem of this lotus had already turned black, as if it had been covered in mud.    

    

"It really is this thing, Life Fiend!" All kinds of phenomena indicated that this lotus was the legendary Life Fiend.    

    

Jiang Feifan had followed his master and seen many rare treasures before, and this Life Fiend was one of them.    

    

Jiang Feifan remembered that his master had told him that the Fate Fiend would only appear once every hundred years. It would extract a person's essence and gather it in the darkest place around him. It would use the Fate Fiend as a catalyst to breed a monster, and anyone who encountered such a thing would get sick. They would die without a doubt!    

    

And this lotus flower in front of him seemed to be the reason why Old Master Sun got sick! The reason why the Fate Fiend bred a monster was because Great-Grandfather Cheng's illness was caused by his essence energy being extracted.    

    

"It's so cold. It's obviously summer, but why does it feel so cold?"    

    

"Me too. Strange?"    

    

"Look, there's fog on the pond."    

    

They were further away from the pond, but they could not see what was happening inside. They could only see waves of fog floating up.    

    

This fog was the cold air emitted by this monster. The water surface was slowly freezing.    

    

"It's forming just right!"    

    

With a loud shout, Jiang Feifan stepped onto the ice surface and rushed towards the lotus at an astonishing speed.    

    

Swoosh!    

    

Suddenly, a rhizome drilled out of the ice under Jiang Feifan's feet. It was different from the thick rhizome from before. This rhizome was as thin as an embroidery needle and easily broke through the ice.    

    

In an instant, Jiang Feifan's figure flashed and the rhizome missed its target and shrank back into the pond.    

    

After that, hundreds of needle-like rhizome pierced out from the ice. Jiang Feifan moved quickly and dodged all of them. In an instant, the ice was riddled with holes.    

    

At this time, Jiang Feifan was only a few steps away from the lotus.    

    

Bang!    

    

Jiang Feifan instantly stopped. He stepped on the ice with his left foot and made a loud sound. Then, he swung his right arm in an arc. A few silver needles shot out and went straight for the heart of the lotus flower.    

    

The lotus flower petals quickly closed and a burst of white juice flowed out.    

    

"F * ck! This smell stinks." Jiang Feifan looked at the disgusting white liquid flowing out of the lotus in disgust.    

    

At this time, black shadows appeared on Jiang Feifan's forehead.    

    

Swoosh!    

    

Jiang Feifan jumped into the air, and the ice that he was standing on was cracked by a long and thin stem.    

    

"Wow, not bad strength." After saying that, he put his legs away in the air and made a squatting posture.    

    

Bang!    

    

There was only a loud explosion. Although Jiang Feifan kicked the air with his feet, he was like a cannonball as he charged straight towards the lotus.    

    

A heavy punch landed directly on the lotus flower's petals. The waves of air created by it blew the people on the shore back a step.    

    

The lotus began to twist in all directions again, and it whipped towards Jiang Feifan again.    

    

Jiang Feifan's feet stepped on the petals. He jumped down and stood firmly on the ice.    

    

The lotus flower lashed out with this whip and heavily hit its own petal. Instantly, the entire flower's head tilted to the side.
