But despite the surprise, the more powerful Lin Feng became, the more determined Song Xin was to eliminate him. Although Song Xin wasn't particularly clever, he understood that today marked an absolute and irreconcilable opposition between him and Lin Feng. He didn't want to face the consequences of Lin Feng's potential revenge in the future.
"Let's all attack together and take him down." With this thought, Song Xin solemnly ordered the three Inner Strength Experts. He knew that Lin Feng could only rely on his gun for a little while longer, but bullets would eventually run out. Once Lin Feng was out of ammunition, he would be defenseless, and at that point, Song Xin could do whatever he wanted to him.
No one responded, but the three Inner Strength Experts charged at Lin Feng again, clearly already executing Song Xin's command.
Watching these three Inner Strength Experts being directed around by such a useless Young Master like Song Xin made Lin Feng feel quite sad. Couldn't they have a bit more dignity?
Well, they weren't going to listen to Lin Feng's advice, so he didn't bother trying to persuade them anymore. He fired three bullets from his handgun in quick succession, forcing the three old fellows back once more.
Although these so-called experts were following Song Xin's orders, they were seasoned individuals with sharp instincts. Their actions served two purposes: first, they were executing Song Xin's command; second, they aimed to deplete Lin Feng's ammunition.
No matter how impressive you are, let's see what happens when you're out of bullets.
After several more attacks, the three continued to wear down Lin Feng's ammunition. These old fellows possessed Internal Energy and had some level of awareness, allowing them to dodge the bullets fired from the handgun.
Lin Feng felt helpless while Song Xin grew increasingly anxious, repeatedly shouting that they were useless and urging them to attack.
In yet another assault, Lin Feng expended three more bullets to maintain the stalemate. He knew that once he ran out of bullets, this deadlock would be broken—and he would become the weaker party.
Lin Feng had considered breaking the stalemate by shooting first but found that the three old fellows could easily evade long-range shots. As for Song Xin, he used Dong Jie as a human shield, knowing that Lin Feng wouldn't harm her; thus, he managed to protect himself.
Despite his helplessness, Lin Feng faced an even more pressing issue: his gun was running low on ammunition.
This meant that what had been a relatively favorable stalemate for him was about to be shattered.
Although there was still a light machine gun in his magic ring, he didn't want to reveal it too soon; after all, it was an Assassin's weapon and exposing it too early would cost him his advantage.
"Lin Feng, drop your gun quickly! Otherwise, I'll kill her. You wouldn't want to see your woman die in front of you, would you?" After several rounds of attacks failed to take down Lin Feng, Song Xin grew impatient and no longer cared whether Lin Feng had any magazines hidden on him.
Although he had Dong Jie as a shield, who knows if Lin Feng would secretly take him out with a shot at some point? Here, he was the most dangerous one; the three old fellows were highly skilled and could easily avoid gunfire.
"Song Xin, I tell you, if you let her go, I will immediately put down my gun." At this moment, Lin Feng couldn't ignore Song Xin. Although he knew that Song Xin's threat was mostly bluster, he had to keep him calm.
"Lin Feng, you have no right to negotiate with me. I tell you, as soon as I apply pressure with this knife, she will die instantly, and you will lose this woman." At this point, Song Xin couldn't care less about being gentle; he pulled out a switchblade from his pocket and pressed it against Dong Jie's delicate neck. Indeed, as he said, if he applied force, Dong Jie would be dead.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the three shameless old fellows moved in again but were pushed back by Lin Feng's three bullets.
However, at the same time, Lin Feng's gun was out of bullets.
"Haha... Lin Feng, you're out of bullets. Now it's my turn. You three, go get him! There’s a big reward!" Seeing that Lin Feng showed no intention of reloading, Song Xin quickly changed his mind. He wanted to capture Lin Feng alive; he wanted to torment him slowly and make him watch as his beloved was mistreated. He wanted Lin Feng to die in regret and despair.
From the beginning to the end, Song Xin regarded Dong Jie as Lin Feng's woman. In his view, if she weren't his woman, Lin Feng wouldn't be so desperate; he wouldn't have come up the mountain alone to face death just because of a threat.
Indeed, in his eyes, Lin Feng coming up alone was no different from seeking death.
The three old fellows saw that Lin Feng was out of bullets and became excited. They had skills but were being held back by Lin Feng's small pistol. Although Lin Feng hadn't gained any advantage either, they felt humiliated being pushed back multiple times by someone they considered inferior.
If Lin Feng knew that they felt humiliated because of this moment, he would certainly scoff at them. You three old fellows in your fifties think you have face just because you band together against me?
Unfortunately, Lin Feng didn't know this; even if he did know, these three old fellows wouldn't feel ashamed. As Lin Feng said, they were already past the age of feeling shy.
However, just when they decided not to delay any longer and rush to capture Lin Feng together, a sudden cry of pain came from Song Xin's direction. Turning around, he realized that Dong Jie had stepped on his foot with her high heel and was gritting her teeth in pain.
If he bent down to rub it now, Dong Jie might escape.
But while Song Xin could endure it once, he couldn't endure it a second time. Sure enough, Dong Jie’s high heel struck the same spot on Song Xin's foot again. Being stepped on twice in the same place was unbearable for someone like Song Xin who was already a spoiled rich kid; instinctively, he reached down to rub his foot.
Well then, this meant his grip on Dong Jie loosened. He also knew that there were still three Inner Strength Experts nearby who should prevent Dong Jie from escaping.
Lin Feng knew that although Song Xin had loosened his grip, the chances of Dong Jie escaping were still low. But it felt good to see Song Xin's pained expression; Lin Feng felt a bit pleased inside.
However, Lin Feng and Song Xin were able to anticipate that Dong Jie could not escape in Lin Feng's direction, but they did not expect that Dong Jie could flee in another direction.
Because the other direction for Dong Jie was a cliff, an absolute point of no return, which was also the reason everyone instinctively overlooked it.
Originally, Lin Feng had planned to jump off the cliff with Dong Jie to escape, but that was based on the condition that Lin Feng was beside Dong Jie and had his Wingsuit ready, not that Dong Jie would jump off the cliff alone.
At this moment, Song Xin and the others were standing at the edge of the cliff. Dong Jie only needed to take a small step to leave the mountaintop and plunge down the cliff.
Lin Feng hoped he was wrong about Dong Jie's intentions, but her actions confirmed his suspicions.
"Lin Feng, take care of yourself. Jie Jie is leaving." At that moment, Dong Jie turned back to Lin Feng with a smile, then closed her eyes and jumped without hesitation. She only sought death now, to prevent Lin Feng from losing his life because of her.
Although she was a woman, Dong Jie already knew that Lin Feng could not defeat those three Old Buddies. Moreover, Lin Feng had no bullets left; if this continued, he would only fall into danger, leading to two possible outcomes: either Lin Feng would die on the spot or be captured alive by Song Xin and tortured to death.
No matter what the outcome was, it was something Dong Jie did not want to see.
As she had said from the beginning, Lin Feng should not have come.
Feeling her body plummeting rapidly, fragments of memories flashed through Dong Jie's mind, all filled with Lin Feng's shadow—Lin Feng coming to help at her shop every week, Lin Feng standing in front of her against a group of thugs last time, and Lin Feng appearing just in time to confront Huang Sheng when he bullied her. She knew she was about to die; once dead, these memories would vanish. Therefore, she desperately recalled Lin Feng before dying. She hoped that after her death, she could end her life with Lin Feng's memories.
Undeniably, Lin Feng occupied almost her entire heart.
"Jie Jie..." Seeing Dong Jie choose to jump off the cliff at this moment, Lin Feng let out a loud roar filled with intense grief and anger. A bloodthirsty light flickered in his eyes; he knew it was these scoundrels before him who had forced Jie Jie to death.
In that instant, Lin Feng felt as if he had returned to his past life as a mercenary and transformed into Blood Leopard. He wanted to make Song Xin and these scum pay with their lives—immediately.
Blood Leopard—a legend in the mercenary world; this name could be said to have been built on blood by Lin Feng in his previous life.
With thoughts arising from his heart and flickering in his mind, Lin Feng already held a Light Machine Gun in his hand. Almost simultaneously, he pulled the trigger at Song Xin.
The reason he hadn’t used this machine gun earlier was not only because he treated it as an Assassin's weapon but also because he feared that stray bullets might accidentally hit Dong Jie. Now that Dong Jie had jumped off the cliff, Lin Feng naturally had no more concerns.
No matter what the "Inner Strength Expert" is, when faced with Lin Feng's furious gunfire, they can only do their best to dodge; there is no time to worry about Song Xin's life or death.
Despite their efforts to evade, the three Inner Strength Experts were still inevitably hit by Lin Feng's bullets. There was no way around it; Lin Feng's machine gun appeared so suddenly that they barely had time to react before he began firing.
However, Inner Strength Experts are still Inner Strength Experts. In such situations, they managed to protect their vital areas as much as possible. Although they were shot, their lives were not in immediate danger.
In contrast, Song Xin was in a much worse situation. She had been hit multiple times in the chest by Lin Feng and was already lying on the ground. Strangely, there was not a single drop of blood flowing from her mouth.
At this moment, Lin Feng was not in the mood to care about such things. He had just gone on a rampage with his gun, and aside from seeking revenge, he wanted to clear the area. He knew that Dong Jie should still be falling off the cliff at this time.
Lin Feng took almost a second from grabbing the machine gun to starting his barrage, so by the time Song Xin was shot and had not yet fallen, he had already picked up a large rock at the edge of the cliff and jumped down like Dong Jie.
He hoped that he could encounter Dong Jie midway and then hold onto her.
As long as he could hold onto her, he believed he could activate his Wingsuit at the same time, and then they would both safely reach the foot of the mountain.
But could Lin Feng catch her before she reached the bottom?
