Ling Feng now somewhat understands Zi Zhu’s character; if he told her that he was Ling Feng now, she wouldn’t believe it anyway.

Instead of getting tangled in the hassle, it’s better to skip the process.

So he nodded and said, "Ling Feng isn’t here. You can tell me if there’s anything, has something happened at home?"

"Can I trust you?" Zi Zhu tilted her head and asked skeptically.

"Yes, as long as it’s not too confidential, you can tell me!" Ling Feng nodded.

"Alright then, someone named Huo Yun came over, saying he has something important to tell Ling Feng, so he asked me to come!" Zi Zhu said.

"So that’s what it is. Then you go tell him to come directly to the City Lord’s residence; Ling Feng is here and will be here soon!"

Ling Feng said.

"Oh, okay."

Zi Zhu, suspecting nothing, nodded and left.

Watching her back, Ling Feng shook his head helplessly.

He didn’t tell this girl about him pretending to be the City Lord, which is why this misunderstanding happened.

But telling her didn’t seem quite right either; there wouldn’t be many such misunderstandings in the future anyway, so it was fine.

Huo Yun came quickly, perhaps he was nearby, and upon reaching the City Lord’s residence, he saw Shi Yuan. He immediately greeted him, "Greetings, City Lord."

"Hmm, you are looking for Ling Feng? Is there something important?" Ling Feng asked deliberately.

"Yes!"

Huo Yun lowered his head and said solemnly, "But I can’t tell City Lord; I must speak to Ling Feng directly!"

"Oh....."

Ling Feng nodded, realizing Huo Yun hadn’t recognized him nor noticed any flaws, and couldn’t help but secretly laugh inside.

He then smiled and said, "Alright, enough teasing, I’m Ling Feng!"

"Ah?"

There was no one else in the room, but Ling Feng used his own voice, so Huo Yun was shocked on the spot.

"I’m not working here; I’ve replaced the previous City Lord. What you see now is my appearance after disguise!" Ling Feng said.

"....."

Huo Yun was still bewildered, at a loss whether to believe or not, feeling very conflicted.

Seeing him like this, Ling Feng thought it was time to put in some effort.

So he reached out and tore off the disguise on his face, quickly reverting to his original appearance.

"Ling, Brother Ling, how did you do that?"

Huo Yun clearly didn’t know about the Art of Disguise, so he was utterly baffled.

"This is a special disguise technique that allows me to transform into anyone’s appearance!"

Ling Feng explained briefly, then said, "Alright, that’s not the point. The point is you must have an urgent matter for coming to me, right?"

"Yes, Brother Ling!"

Huo Yun nodded and quickly said, "I just got news that the King has started assembling the army!"

"Oh, I’m already aware of that."

Ling Feng nodded and continued, "I just saw the King this morning; she wants me, as the City Lord, to prepare sufficient resources!"

"Uh....."

Huo Yun was left speechless, then curiously asked, "Is it really possible like this? So you’ve already gotten close to the King?"

"Sort of, it’s a bit more convenient this way."

Ling Feng nodded, then said, "If you’ve come just for this, don’t worry; I’m already aware and prepared for it!"

"Alright."

Huo Yun nodded, then said, "But I must remind you, Brother Ling, this time the ones going are high-level Red Army soldiers, many of them far superior to me, and there are many of them, indicating that the King plans on using siege tactics!"

"Understood, a force of ten thousand troops is enough to give anyone a headache."

Ling Feng chuckled, "But don’t worry, I won’t let them easily enter the range of Paradise Island."

"Oh, that’s good."

Huo Yun nodded, "We depart in three days; we still need to gather, so I won’t disturb you, Brother Ling!"

"Hmm, by the way, after departure, remember to stay at the back of the formation; don’t be at the front because I’m afraid of accidentally hurting you!" Ling Feng said.

"Don’t worry, Brother Ling, I’m originally at the back. This time, the front line will be the Red Army elites, the Red Armor Team, whose armor defense is incredibly strong; please be more cautious, Brother Ling."

Huo Yun said.

Ling Feng nodded without further comment, then watched him leave.

He then called for Mu He and said, "The King gave me the task of gathering resources; I can’t manage it, so you’ll have to handle it!"

"Alright, I understand."

Mu He nodded and quickly went to make arrangements.

Ling Feng sat back in the chair, leaning against its back to ponder.

The Red Army must be stopped; he doesn’t want them bringing any harm to Paradise Island.

But Ling Feng also doesn’t wish for all the Red Army soldiers to die.

These people are merely following orders; there’s no need to hold grudges against them.

So, according to his original plan, Ling Feng made some adjustments, deciding to mainly intimidate, avoiding causing severe harm to innocents.

With Mu He’s help, this impostor City Lord didn’t need to constantly oversee everything, so Ling Feng stayed at the City Lord’s residence for another two days.

During this time, Mu He was in charge of organizing the resource gathering work.

And his work efficiency was decent; using the mayor’s name, he completed the task within two days.

Afterward, large quantities of resources were sent to the Red Army, completing the City Lord’s task perfectly.

Another day passed, and soon it was the Red Army’s departure day.

Ling Feng had Mu He stay at the City Lord’s residence to hold the fort, while he reverted to his original appearance, then led Xiao Xiao, Mu Mu, and others, heading first to the entrance of the Space-time Vortex.

With a hundred Magic Crystal Warriors, fifty Miniature Spaceships, and Mu Mu, the domineering little girl, Ling Feng did his utmost to prepare to stop the Red Army.

After about an hour’s wait, more than a dozen gigantic Dragonbone Ships flew over, followed by a large number of Red Army soldiers descending from the ships.

At the same time, hundreds of flames soared into the sky!

The spaceships and Magic Crystal Warriors launched missiles one after another; these missiles exploded simultaneously at an altitude of two thousand meters, creating a massive shockwave.

The sound of the explosion was deafening, and the shockwave was immensely powerful; it shook not only the Red Army but even the Dragonbone Ships swayed like floating leaves in the wind!

Ling Feng’s move directly stunned the Red Army.

Then he didn’t hide his presence, hovering mid-air, he shouted threateningly, "Those who step into the Space-time Vortex shall be killed!"

The voice wasn’t loud, but it reached everyone’s ears.

Seeing this, the Red Army was taken aback and didn’t dare to advance!

At this moment, a woman’s voice came from the back of the crowd: "How dare you intrude on our Four Directions Nation’s land!"

With the voice, Fengxue appeared with a frosty expression, flying out from the crowd.

Following her were seven women in red!
