Chapter 139 Spare My Life, Sir!

A pair of eyes stared intently at Ling Feng.Yet, Ling Feng remained calm and unruffled from start to finish, showing not the slightest sign of panic.

"The evidence is irrefutable, Ling, what more can you say!" Jia Lang sneered viciously, "Boy, even the King of Heaven coming here can’t save you now!"

The people who had supported Ling Feng fell silent, unable to say a word in the face of the imperial decree issued by the Empire.

One after another, the commandery guards crowded around them, each looking fierce and intimidating, their swords drawn.

"Who said that the youngest Imperial Physician of the Divine Country is Sun Siyi?"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ling Feng finally spoke, "Sun Siyi is merely a defeated subordinate of mine."

In terms of medical skills, Sun Siyi couldn’t even hold Ling Feng’s shoes.

"You’re facing death and still dare to spout nonsense here!" Jia Lang’s sinister smile widened, "What are you waiting for? Cripple this boy!"

The guards stepped closer menacingly, while the spectators stepped back.

At this moment, the only ones still daring to stand beside Ling Feng were Lin Xian’er and Ouyang Jing.

"Jing’er, you better step back!" Ouyang Rui, seeing Ouyang Jing still standing behind Ling Feng, quickly signaled him with his eyes.

Ouyang Jing clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on Ling Feng, and gritted his teeth, "Brother, I believe in you, you don’t need to impersonate any Imperial Physician!"

"Ah!" Lio Xudong shook his head and sighed, facing incontrovertible evidence, even he had nothing to say.

"You brat, it’d be wise for you to surrender without a fuss, it might spare you some pain!" One of the Black Armor guards unsheathed his long sword, his gaze as sharp as a falcon staring at Ling Feng.

This guard’s cultivation had shockingly reached the Origin Transformation Realm, incomparable to martial artists of the Qi Condensation Realm.

Lin Xian’er took a deep look at Ling Feng and said through clenched teeth, "Brother Ling, I have a Magic Treasure that can hold them off; you should run!"

Behind her stood a Deputy Dean from Heavenly Position Academy, which she believed would prevent the Hanwu County guards from treating her too harshly.

Ling Feng pursed his lips, smiled at the two steadfast figures beside him and said, "Miss Lin, thank you for your kindness, but why should I run?"

Ling Feng took a step forward, under the astonished gaze of Lin Xian’er, and walked towards the leader of the Black Armor guards.

"Sir, I have something here you might want to take a closer look at." Ling Feng said with a faint smile, then took out a token from his chest and tossed it over.

"Humph! No treasure can save your life!"

The Black Armor guard caught it casually, disdain on his face, then he focused his gaze and instantly, his pupils dilated as he looked at the token in disbelief.

Then, a clanging sound as the token fell to the ground, and the guard leader’s legs trembled, he knelt with a "thump" and pleaded, "Spare... spare my life, please!"

"Hmm?"

Everyone was once again dumbfounded. What was that token that held such a power to frighten the Black Armor guard leader into such a state?

"Sir, you’ve got quite the nerve tossing the Cangqiong Sect’s token around carelessly like that."

Ling Feng looked amusedly at the guard leader, the corner of his lips curling up.

"No... I dare not!" the guard leader hastily picked up the token, knelt, and presented it back to Ling Feng with a terrified expression, "I... I didn’t know you were the High Envoy of the Cangqiong Sect, otherwise not a thousand lives would make me dare to draw a weapon against you!"

As it turned out, the token in Ling Feng’s hand was the Cangqiong Token given to Ling Feng by Wen Tingguang.

Ling Feng had saved the Cangqiong Sect Master’s life, a great merit, and in addition to the Divine Country Imperial Physician Order personally gifted by the Sect Master, he had also given him a Cangqiong Token. Bearing this token, he was a distinguished guest of the Cangqiong Sect.

The status of the Cangqiong Sect was supremely prestigious, and Ling Feng, being a distinguished guest of the Cangqiong Sect, naturally wasn’t someone these guards of a remote small town could afford to provoke.

"Boss, you..." The nearby Black Armor guards were stunned, looking at their leader with faces full of astonishment.

The leader of the Black Armor immediately turned around and scolded, "What are you fools standing there for, not kneeling down to apologize to the High Envoy? Do you want to get me killed?"

"Yes!" The Black Armor guards instantly all knelt down, making the scene seem exceptionally eerie.

"Gulp!"

Sounds of swallowing saliva came from the surroundings, almost everyone stared at Ling Feng at the center of the guards, their eyeballs nearly popping out.

Lin Xian’er and Ouyang Jing also looked at Ling Feng incredulously. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn Novᴇ(l)Fɪre .ɴᴇt

The Cangqiong Sect was the National Guardian Divine Sect of the Sky White Empire, and Ling Feng actually had connections with the Cangqiong Sect!

Who exactly was he?

"How is this possible?" Jia Lang was dumbfounded, originally thinking he held the winning ticket, only to see Ling Feng throw a token, and the guards of Hanwu County all knelt to him.

"Thump, thump, thump!"

His mind reeled, and Jia Lang staggered back several steps. If it weren’t for an attendant beside him holding him up, his legs would probably have given out, causing him to collapse.

What kind of opponent had he provoked?

"This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Jia Lang pushed away the attendant supporting him and shouted loudly, "Commander Yang, you must not believe this kid. If he can forge the Divine Country Imperial Doctor Order, he can forge the Cangqiong Token too. This kid is an utter fraud!"

"Commander Yang, you should arrest this kid and interrogate him severely!"

"Enough!"

Behind Jia Lang, a middle-aged man dressed in a golden robe slapped Jia Lang across the face, sending him flying.

This man was Jia Lang’s father, Jia Yan, who was usually very protective. Hearing that his son was being bullied, he immediately brought several experts from the family along with guards from the Governor Mansion to capture Ling Feng.

Who would have thought things would turn out this way?

The leader of the Black Armor guards, Yang Zhen, was after all a Deputy General dispatched from the Imperial City, born of a military background, how could he possibly mistake the Cangqiong Token of the Cangqiong Sect!

Moreover, as a National Guardian Divine Sect, the Cangqiong Sect indeed had the right to directly appoint a Divine Country Imperial Physician each year. It seemed that it was indeed Ling Feng now.

"I have failed in my duties as a father, disturbing the official. Please, Sir, forgive us!"

Jia Yan hastily "plopped" down on his knees in front of Ling Feng, as they say, a higher office crushes the holder of a lower!

Ling Feng was a distinguished guest of the Cangqiong Sect, and the Jia Family, bluntly put, was merely a local snake in Hanwu County, with no status to speak of outside this commandery.

Even though Jia Yan was far more powerful than Ling Feng, he had no choice but to kneel down humbly in front of Ling Feng, banging his head in supplication.

The development of the situation took everyone by surprise, as originally Ling Feng was not only a Divine Country Imperial Doctor but also a distinguished guest of the Cangqiong Sect!

The status of a distinguished guest was equivalent to that of a Guest Elder!

Jia Lang, slapped by his father, turned dizzy and disoriented, it was unclear whether he was stunned by Ling Feng or by Jia Yan’s slap. He huddled up dumbly, not daring to look at Ling Feng again.

"Hmph!" Ling Feng flung his sleeve, taking back the Cangqiong Token from the hands of the Guard Commander, and coldly said, "The Divine Country Imperial Doctor Order in my hand was personally issued by the Cangqiong Sect. If you have any doubts, feel free to investigate with the Cangqiong Sect itself!"

"No...not at all!"

Yang Zhen and Jia Yan’s faces looked uglier than the bottom of a pot, this time they were thoroughly pitted by Jia Lang.
