Chapter 214 'The Truth'! Noah Becomes Lin Feng's Hope!
The seed of doubt in his heart started to take root, budging the leaves of insecurities and fear. He could not help but doubt if the boy was telling the truth about his father or not.
"Do you believe it now? your father is not your real father!"
Noticing that his words were effective, Noah hit the last nail and came to the main point of his conversation.
"What do you mean by that?" This time, Noah could see seriousness in the eyes of the pale-faced boy.
"Have you ever wondered how your mother died?"
"Father said that she was poisoned by someone. So she died instantly after giving birth to me." Lin Feng innocently explained what he remembered from his memories.
"What if I told you that the person who poisoned her was none other than your father?" Noah roamed around kneeling Lin Feng as he explained with a dark, hollow look in his eyes. Stay updated through m-v l|-NovelFire.net
"Wh..why would he do… such a thing?" Lin Feng stammered in disbelief; he had always believed in his father. After all, he was the only person who pampered all of his wishes.
"Because he is not your father!" Noah smiled behind the mask, seeing his manipulation technique working.
"I saw it in one of the visions that I got when I looked at him: he was poisoning his own wife for cheating on him. You were not his son but someone else\'s. He even expressed how he wished to kill you in the womb, but that would have aroused some suspicions. Because of that, he kept you alive."
"Then why would he treat me like I was his own son?!" Lin Feng yelled in disbelief. Somewhere in his heart, he was already starting to believe Noah\'s words but he did not want them to be true.
"That is all a pretense, a ruse to keep you and everyone else in the dark. Tell me Have you ever asked him to give you the sect master\'s position?"
Seeing the lost look on Lin Feng\'s face as he nodded, Noah continued to fan the flames in the boy\'s heart.
He started by giving the father a motive to kill his wife, which was not difficult considering how common these kinds of things were in this world.
"He must have reacted by saying that you weren\'t ready or when the time was right… Am I right?"
Lin Fen nodded again with an absent look on his face. He did not even know that he was falling deep into Noah\'s trap.
"In his eyes, you will never be ready; after all, you were never his son. He is probably waiting for a better candidate for the position of the sect leader." Like the devil\'s whisper, Lin Feng could not help but feel himself influenced by those words. The lost look on the boy\'s face shifted and morphed into undisguised killing intent.
"Do you want revenge on him? I can help you with that. I can even make you sect leader of the Soaring Heaven Sect!" Hearing Noah\'s exclamation along with the effects of the seal, Lin Feng felt that the boy might really be able to do it.
"Why do you want to help me?!" Lin Feng knew that the boy had no reason to help him, so why would someone like him help him?
"Let me tell you what I want…."Noah\'s voice trailed off as he continued to explain his plan.

In no time, Lin Feng was on board with the plan. He hated his father for killing his mother, but he hated him even more for not making him the new sect leader.
"Now that you know what you have to do after leaving this place, I will throw you off the platform and send you outside the domain."
Hearing Noah\'s words, Lin Feng looked at the lotus in the air with a reluctant look, but by now Noah\'s seals had worked their charm on the boy. He was sure that the masked boy was on his side and would not do him any harm.
"Ok-"
*BOOM!*
Before he could even complete his sentence. Lin Feng found himself colliding with the ground and teleporting outside the pagoda. He wanted to curse the boy for such a hard blow, but then he remembered that they were on the same side.
***
WOOSH!
Outside the pagoda, Lin Feng suddenly appeared, lying on the ground with a bruised slap mark on his face.
"Who is that pig-faced boy? Was there someone like him inside?"
"Look Carefully, he is the young master of the Soaring Heaven Sect, Lin Feng; don\'t let him hear you." Two disciples from the Wild Serpent sect started talking among themselves, unaware that Lin Feng was able to hear them loud and clear.
It was not just the two of them; there were several other disciples present who were commenting on the same thing.
\'Just you wait; I will show you who is pig after I become the sect master.\' Lin Feng gritted and vowed in his heart as he glared at them.
"Where are the disciples from my sect?! Why are we still in the domain?" after a moment of clarity, Lin Feng noticed that there was not a single person from his sect.
Everyone present in that place was from the other two sects, but no one from his sect.
"There was no one who came here before us, I think they left the domain, but something is stopping us from leaving. We can only wait for the rest of them to clear the trials." Someone from the Wild Serpent Sect shrugged in reply, but everyone else seemed tensed about the situation.
Lin Feng also looked at the pagoda with a hopeful gaze. He did not want his dream of becoming the sect master to end right then and there.
