Chapter 6: Lin Feng’s Death

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Federal Building, Mage Guild Hall.

Arriving at the entrance of the hall, Xia Xiaoyan retracted her flaming wings. She endured the powerful pressure and trudged into the hall. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and her face was a little pale. It was obvious she was not in a good state.

However, even so, Xia Xiaoyan did not retreat. Her intuition told her that something had happened to her teacher, Lin Feng, and she had to investigate the situation carefully.

Her eyes swept across the venue. The council members had all fallen and were lying in a mess. It was obvious that this was the center of the chaos.

Though that was not the main point…

Xia Xiaoyan’s gaze turned and focused on the source of the aura—the rostrum. Immediately, her pupils constricted as she witnessed a scene she would never forget.

The leader of the highest mage guild, the second strongest human and a Level 80 Epic mage, actually knelt in front of a black-robed youth!

Moreover, this black-robed young man was actually Lin Feng himself!

Why was her master here?

What were they doing?

Why did Ren Qiu kneel?

Xia Xiaoyan’s fair face filled with shock, and her cherry wine-red lips slightly widened. Even though she was usually calm, she could not help but lose her focus and feel at a loss in the face of such a magical scene.

She was already in a daze and could only tilt her head slightly, seemingly as if a huge question mark was on her small head.

Meanwhile, the two people on the rostrum.

One of them was kneeling while the other was standing. It was as if a subject was completely kneeling at the feet of a king.

“Ren Qiu, why are you kneeling? Are you feeling unwell?”

Lin Feng bent over slightly and looked down at Ren Qiu condescendingly as he asked rhetorically with a tone imitating that of a kindergarten child.

“Phew… Phew… Phew…”

Ren Qiu, on the other hand, did not have the strength to pay attention to Lin Feng. He knelt on the ground, his entire body drenched in sweat. His chest heaved up and down as he panted heavily. Unlike his arrogant and despotic appearance earlier, he was in an extremely sorry state.

“Sigh. Did I do this? I’m really sorry!”

Lin Feng apologized “sincerely”. A wicked smile appeared on his face as he stretched out his hand and patted Ren Qiu’s head as though he was coaxing his puppy.

“Hey, why are you sweating so much? Don’t be afraid. Master is here to comfort you. ”

Hearing these seemingly concerned but extremely humiliating words, Ren Qiu could not take it anymore. He suddenly raised his head, and his eyes red as he gritted his teeth tightly. He endured the pain and shouted word by word.

“Lin Feng, you are seeking death!!!”

“I’m clearly concerned about you. Why are you treating me like this? You’re such a bad person for repaying kindness with ingratitude.”

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly, looking as if he was disappointed by Ren Qiu’s failure. He stretched out his hand and gently patted Ren Qiu’s cheek twice, emitting two clear sounds. Then, he solemnly said, “I’m doing this for your own good. You’re so old, yet you still don’t understand my good intentions.”

“Ah!!!!!”

It was then that Ren Qiu felt his self-esteem torn apart and shattered on the ground. A surge of hot blood rushed to his head, and his veins bulged. Using all his strength, his originally knelt legs withstood the pressure and gradually stood up.

‘Not bad. He actually had the willpower to resist.’

Lin Feng raised his brows and glanced at the system notification.

[Level Falling: Level 15… Level 11… Level 6…]

The magic power was starting to dissipate, and the pressure was about to lose its effect. With Ren Qiu probably furious after being humiliated and about to go berserk, Lin Feng should take the opportunity to teleport away…

Just as he pondered, he suddenly saw a familiar figure from the corner of his eye. It was a red-haired young lady with crimson eyes. She was none other than Lin Feng’s head disciple. He turned his head in shock and greeted his stunned disciple.

“Xiaoyan, why are you…?”

[Level Falling: Level 4… Level 2… Level 0.]

[Beep! Your magic power has been released. The mage class has disappeared.]

[Beep! Level reset successful. Your class will officially change to Anti-Mage after passing the trial!]

[Your current level is: Level 1]

When Xia Xiaoyan saw this, she finally came back to her senses. Just as she was about to say something to Lin Feng, her eyes suddenly widened as if she had seen something. She hurriedly shouted to warn Lin Feng.

“Master, there’s danger behind us!”

Before she could finish her sentence, Lin Feng felt a chill run down his spine. He did not even need to turn around to know what had happened.

“You’re really impatient to want to interrupt such a beautiful scene. Couldn’t you wait until we said goodbye before making your move?

“Don’t you think so, Ren Qiu?”

However, behind him, Ren Qiu had no intention of playing along with his teasing. He released the aura of an Epic mage and soared into the sky. He stretched out his right hand, and a light purple staff appeared. At the same time, he waved it forcefully and chanted a short incantation before shouting loudly.

“Eighth-tier Spell—Heavenly Fire Whirlpool! ”

Mages could summon the power of the elements by chanting incantations, allowing them to use powerful spells. There were a total of ten tiers, from weak to strong. The first tier corresponded to Levels 0 to 10, the second tier corresponded to Levels 11 to 20, and so on.

Fire-type spells were known for their strong offensive power. Therefore, even among Tier 8 spells, Heavenly Fire Whirlpool was one of the best. The temperature of Heavenly Fire was as high as tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, and its power was so great that it could easily melt even the hardest alloy.

Such a powerful eighth-tier fire-type spell could easily consume one-third of Ren Qiu’s spell points. It was his trump card, and he would not use it unless he were in a critical situation.

Now, he used this trump card to deal with Lin Feng, who had no magic power and was already weak. It was simply overkill.

However, Ren Lun did not dare to relax in the slightest. This was not because he was blinded by the anger from his earlier humiliation. It was because he was afraid Lin Feng still had trump cards hidden and wanted to nip the signs of danger in the bud. Hence, he used all his strength to kill Lin Feng with a single strike, not daring to be careless.

Even a lion would use its full strength when hunting a rabbit. This was Ren Qiu’s respect for someone who had been the strongest human being for more than ten years.

“Die!”

Under Ren Qiu’s command, the purple-red balls of fire emitting a bewitching aura rushed toward Lin Feng.

The heavenly flames in the distance rapidly approached Lin Feng. He, who no longer had the strength of a Mythical mage, was now just an ordinary person.

“Seriously, I haven’t even had the chance to bid farewell to my good disciple…”

Lin Feng mumbled, his tone filled with regret. He could clearly sense waves of scorching heat rapidly increasing in temperature radiating from his skin, attempting to devour him.

With a thought, he opened the system interface.

[Teleport? Yes/No]

[Yes.]

[Teleporting in progress.]

“Goodbye, Mage Lin Feng.

“Hello, Anti-Mage Lin Feng.”

Bang!

The location where Lin Feng was engulfed by countless balls of flames. The purple-red demonic flames emitted an extremely high temperature and heavily smashed into the hall floor. The marble on the floor instantly vaporized, emitting hissing sounds.

Once the smoke dispersed, everyone present focused their eyes on the center of the hall. The eighth-tier spell, Heavenly Fire Whirlpool, swallowed everything and burned a hole more than ten meters in diameter on the floor. Other than black charcoal, nothing was left.

Silence.

It was deathly silent in the hall.

A ridiculous thought rose in everyone’s hearts.

Just like that, is Lin Feng dead…?

It was a moment destined to be recorded in history.

He was once the strongest human.

The first hero of the Dark War.

He was the strongest hero who had overcome all obstacles.

The only Mythical class in the world.

With the title of Archmage — Lin Feng.

Today, at the Federal Building…

He was officially dead.

He did not die from the claws of magical beasts.

Instead, he died in the internal strife of his companions.
