Chapter 2 Lin Feng's Old Man

  "Lin Feng, my son is Lin Feng... Sir, thank you, thank you for saving my son."

  Nina rushed to Lin Feng's side, tightly embracing his slender body in her arms. Tears streamed down her face as she held the unscathed Lin Feng, and she couldn't help but shed scalding hot tears of relief.

  When asked about saving her son's benefactor, Nina couldn't help but respond immediately.

  "What a strange name...... Hmm, okay, Lin Feng little guy."

  The figure in the darkness first muttered something strange and then slowly walked towards Nina and her mother.

  As the figure emerged from the darkness, everyone gradually made out his appearance. He wore a white robe that was spotless, and a pointed magic hat covered his face. However, the long white beard hanging down to his chest silently revealed his age. In his right hand, he held an unusual wooden staff almost as tall as himself, with a huge fire-red gemstone embedded at its tip.

  "Great, great magician, he is a great magician!"

  As soon as they saw the man's appearance, someone in the tavern couldn't help but exclaim and reveal his identity. Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, even Xiesi, who had just spat up blood, was staring at him with a look of astonishment, covering his own chest.

  Mages hold a noble position in this world, belonging to the privileged class with powers that surpass those of any aristocrat. Even if a mage were to kill an aristocrat, the empire would generally not pursue the mage's responsibility. This has fostered the idea that everyone wants to become a mage. However, mages are extremely rare in this world and not everyone has the talent to become one.

  And the great magician in front of him, his strength was even above the eighth level. Only when he reached the eighth level would he take off his gray robe and put on a white one. For such a great magician, people usually kept their distance, because those who could cultivate magic to this level were often some eccentric guys.

  Nina and Lin Feng also saw the man's appearance clearly, Nina hadn't spoken yet, but Lin Feng took the initiative to speak up. However, Lin Feng's calm tone didn't match his young age at all, and his words seemed a bit arrogant: "Why did you save me?"

  As soon as this was said, the expressions of the people around them suddenly became strange, and even Nina, who was holding Lin Feng, looked a bit unpleasant - after all, the other party had saved him, and he didn't even thank him, but instead asked questions in an interrogative tone? This is too arrogant! Moreover, the other party is a big magician with a bad temper!

  Everyone's gaze at Lin Feng became somewhat ill-intentioned, and some people even secretly rejoiced in his misfortune, hoping that the eccentric magician would lose his temper and kill this ignorant child. Even Nina's eyes held a hint of fear as she hastily hugged Lin Feng tightly and apologized to the great magician: "Respected Great Magician, sir, please don't be angry, my child didn't mean to offend you."

  After saying this sentence, he hastily bowed his head and urged Lin Feng: "Child, quickly apologize to the great magician, hurry up!"

  Lin Feng stared tightly at the Great Magician and slowly shook his head.

  "Hey, this kid actually refused to apologize..."

  Some people have already begun to whisper maliciously, and the surrounding area is suddenly full of discussion. Nina's heart became even more anxious, and she quickly urged Lin Feng in her arms: "Child, apologize quickly! Apologize quickly!"

  "Quiet!"

  The great magician whispered a sentence, and the surroundings immediately became silent. He took off the magic hat on his head, squatted down, and quietly looked at Lin Feng's determined face. Finally, he spoke: "Because your magic makes me very curious, little guy, tell me your full name."

  "Lin Feng · Park, my son is called Lin Feng · Park."

  Nina saw the great magician and didn't get angry, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and quickly reported Lin Feng's full name.

  But just then, Lin Feng stretched out a small hand to cover Nina's mouth, staring intently at the great magician and saying: "I'm not surnamed Parker, how could I be surnamed Parker?"

  "But, my child, you..."

  Nina seemed to want to say something else, but Lin Feng cut her off coldly: "I don't have that kind of father, so I'm not surnamed Parker!"

  Nina was taken aback at once.

  "Oh, you little thing, tell me, what's your surname?"

  The great magician seemed extremely patient, quietly watching Lin Feng's small face, with a sincere smile on his face.

  "First of all, thank you, Great Magician-sama, for saving me and my mother." Lin's young face was full of sincerity.

  The great magician smiled kindly, and this sentence also made Nina put her mind at ease.

  "My surname is..." Lin Feng said, pausing for a moment to think, his brow furrowing slightly as he changed the shape of his mouth and uttered two sounds that no one could understand: "Lǎo Diē."

  After finishing the sentence, Lin Feng's face was full of weirdness, because he dared to confirm that in this world, no one would understand Chinese. The "old dad" he just said was his familiar standard Mandarin!

  "Oh, okay, Lin Feng, old man, what a strange pronunciation, just like your name."

  The great magician muttered to himself, and in his eyes, the strange expression on Lin Feng's small face seemed more like a show of respect for himself. So, the great magician didn't think much about it, but nodded his head, then looked at Lin Feng again: "Alright, little guy, I'm extremely interested in your magic. To show my sincerity, I can grant you one request. Of course, no matter what, you'll have to come with me. But I promise that if you follow me, you and your mother won't go hungry again. What do you say?"

  "Deal!"

  Lin Feng didn't hesitate at all, and immediately agreed. In his view, it was the best choice for his mother not to have to sell her body. He also added a sentence: "However, Great Mage, you can just call me by my name, I don't have a surname for my benefactor."

  "Oh?" The great magician couldn't help but feel a little surprised, slightly shrugging his shoulders: "What a strange little thing."

  Lin Feng gazed at the deeply wrinkled Great Magician and pointed at the giant named Xi Si: "My request is simple, please, Great Magician, help me kill this son of a bitch!"

  "This is easy."

  The great magician stood up, casually waving the magic wand in his hand at Xisi, and saw that the fiery red gemstone on the tip of the wand flashed, a scorching flame immediately shot towards Xisi.

  Xī sī hái méi lái dé jiāo, fǒu rán bèi jìn rè de huǒ yàn bāo guǒ, xià yí kè, bù děng tā cǎn jiào shēng xiǎng qǐ, fǒu rán zhí jiàng wéi le yī duī huī tàn.

  Obviously, the great magician's ability to control flames has reached an unprecedented level, and in an instant, he turned Sis into ashes, not to mention that the wooden chair and table next to him didn't even get a spark.

  In the blink of an eye, the originally robust big man directly turned into a pile of ashes, which made everyone in the tavern stunned on the spot, speechless.

  Nina apparently hadn't come back to herself either, she didn't notice at all that Lin Feng was in her arms, and a look of excitement had floated into the two eyes on his small face.

  But Lin Feng's heart was deeply screaming at this moment: Is...this really the power of magic?

  "Alright, come with me."

  The great magician expressionlessly withdrew the magic wand in his hand, and his words awakened Nina who was still in a daze. Nina looked at the old back of the great magician who had already walked out of the tavern, and quickly pulled Lin Feng's small hand to chase after him.

  In the tavern, only a group of stunned men were left standing in place, looking dazed.
