I Can Extract Abilities – Chapter 271

Chapter 271: Bad Luck Dissipates

“Hu.”

Li Feng circulated his breathing technique, his internal organs moving violently, emitting ‘dong dong’ sounds.

Centered on him, a darkness extended outwards, continuously devouring everything around it.

“En, what is this thing?” The woman’s face revealed astonishment. The intelligence report hadn’t mentioned Li Feng possessing such a strange skill.

She was alarmed. The moment the darkness touched her, she retreated from the room.

She had a feeling of palpitation. Her intuition told her that being devoured by the darkness would definitely not end well.

Xiu!

A sharp sword light, carrying a vast and mighty aura, rushed out from the darkness, slashing towards her.

The woman coldly snorted. The dagger in her hand bloomed with moonlight, colliding with the vast sword light.

With a bang, the moonlight and sword light both disappeared into the air. A visible wave of air surged outwards, and countless wooden planks fell from the ceiling.

“Playing tricks!” Seeing that Li Feng’s sword light hadn’t strengthened, the woman relaxed internally and sneered.

But before she could completely relax, the darkness instantly approached her, engulfing her within.

More than ten minutes later.

The darkness disappeared, and a corpse appeared on the ground.

Li Feng frowned at the corpse. His pale face showed no joy of victory because the opponent had committed suicide in the end, and he hadn’t been able to extract any information.

Moreover, the opponent’s strength was also very formidable, nearly piercing his heart.

“Dare to attack me, don’t let me find out which family you’re from, or I will definitely uproot you,” he muttered, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

This assassination attempt filled Li Feng with a nameless anger.

However, not knowing who his enemy was left him helpless. He could only wait for the opponent to strike again. Then, he glanced at the surrounding environment, which was already in complete ruins. The people in the hotel had all fled when they started fighting.

“This place is uninhabitable. It seems I need to change hotels,” Li Feng sighed, walking towards the hotel entrance. Even his rest was disturbed. This assassin was too hateful.

But as soon as he stepped out the door, he was stopped.

“Hello, friend. I am Xu Dahai, the manager of this hotel.” The person who stopped Li Feng was a young, fat man. He believed that Li Feng had caused significant damage to their hotel and needed to compensate them. He sternly said, “If you don’t compensate, I will report this to the police.”

Li Feng was stunned for a moment, then said, “How much do I need to pay?”

Unlike at Beihai Academy, this time he was caught red-handed.

Xu Dahai had already thought of what to say and directly stated, “The repair costs alone amount to eight hundred thousand. However, in addition to the repair costs, the lost business profits during the repair period must also be included. The total loss is at least one million five hundred thousand.”

“One million five hundred thousand? Okay, no problem.” Li Feng took a deep breath. Fortunately, he had earned a lot of money recently. One million five hundred thousand wasn’t much and was within his means.

Then, Li Feng directly transferred one million five hundred thousand to the other party, thinking to himself, “Let’s consider it as spending money to ward off disaster!”

After paying, he felt as if his body had become lighter. “It seems another portion of my bad luck has been eliminated.”

“What happened? Did you demolish someone’s hotel?” Just then, Shang Shu returned from shopping. Seeing the scene, she asked curiously.

Li Feng glared at her exasperatedly and then told her what had happened.

After listening, Shang Shu was gleeful and said, “I knew it. You’re filled with bad luck. Luckily, I didn’t stay with you. Otherwise, I might have been caught in the crossfire.”

Dong.

Li Feng knocked her on the head a few times, expressing his dissatisfaction with her gloating. Then he asked, “Is there any way to find out the identity of that assassin?”

“Is the body still here?”

Shang Shu said, “If the body is still here, there should be a way. After all, there are only so many Peak Awakened level experts. Unless she has been hiding all along and has never appeared in public, there must be some clues left behind.”

“It’s still here.”

“Alright, then I’ll have someone come over to investigate.” Shang Shu then said to the hotel manager, “Please wait a moment. My people will be here soon to handle the body.”

Xu Dahai was covered in cold sweat and quickly nodded, “Yes, yes, yes, Masters, you take your time. It’s no rush.”

Hearing their conversation, he felt like he was listening to a fantasy novel. Awakened level experts, oh my god.

This young man was actually an Awakened level expert, and so young at that. Moreover, from their conversation, it was clear they didn’t think much of Awakened level experts, indicating they had an extraordinary background. And he had dared to demand compensation from such a person.

Not long after, a car arrived, and several men in black got out. They approached Shang Shu and greeted her.

“The body is inside. Go and take care of it!” Shang Shu briefly explained the situation.

“Understood. We will notify you immediately when we have results!”

Shang Shu nodded, her expression calm.

These people came quickly and left quickly. They handled things efficiently.

“I didn’t realize your Shang family’s business scope was so extensive,” Li Feng remarked. This place was far from Flourishing City, yet the Shang family had business dealings here.

It had to be said that the Shang family’s influence was vast.

Shang Shu proudly said, “Naturally. Our Shang family is primarily in business. In every medium-sized city, we have some investments. The people who came just now are from a local enterprise controlled by our family.”

“Let’s go. We’ll change hotels. After this assassination, I clearly feel that my bad luck has dissipated a lot,” Li Feng said.

Shang Shu nodded, then became vigilant again, saying, “Although I don’t know what you’re doing with my luck, I advise you to use it sparingly. Otherwise, I’m afraid the next person to come after you will be a Destruction level expert.”

After this incident, Li Feng’s strength was undoubtedly exposed. If the other party were to strike again, they might send a Destruction level expert.

Hearing this, Li Feng felt a weight on his heart.

It seemed he still needed to become stronger!

…

…

Dayu City, Liao Family!

In the ancestral hall!

A transparent stone box vibrated. The old man in the ancestral hall opened his eyes again, frowning. “Liao Hua is dead too? Did she encounter a Destruction level expert?”

Then, he walked forward and opened the transparent stone box. A drop of black blood flew out, gradually forming into a woman with thick eyebrows and large eyes.

If Li Feng were here, he would definitely recognize her as the assassin who had tried to kill him.

“How were you killed? Did some old bone make a move?” The old man looked at Liao Hua, his expression grim.

Liao Hua shook her head and said, “We all underestimated Li Feng’s strength. He has a method to engulf people in darkness. In that place, I found that all my senses disappeared. It was terrifying.”

◈◈◈

“Hiss.” The old man gasped, in disbelief. “Are you saying Li Feng killed you?”

“En.” Liao Hua nodded, her tone serious. “That Li Feng is too young. He’s only nineteen years old, yet he possesses such strength. If given more time, I suspect he could even contend with Destruction level experts. If we don’t eliminate him early, he will eventually become a thorn in our Liao family’s side.”

“Although I also want to nip such a monstrous talent in the bud, but…” The old man’s expression was equally grave. “But we are at a critical juncture. If we succeed, our Liao family will rise again and crush our old enemies. At that time, even if Li Feng reaches the Destruction level, what of it? He will still be an ant.

To enter this planet, our Liao family has expended countless resources, and even Source level experts have died. We cannot let a mere Li Feng hinder our grand plan.”

Liao Hua frowned. Thinking of their family’s glorious history, she ultimately nodded, putting aside the plan to kill Li Feng for now.

After all, no matter how much an ant jumps, it’s still just an ant.

…

…

Morning.

In the hotel, when Li Feng woke up, it was already 8:30 AM.

He got up, washed his face, and went out for breakfast.

This was a hotel, so finding breakfast was very convenient. The hotel’s first-floor lobby served breakfast.

When Li Feng arrived at the first-floor lobby, he found that Shang Shu was already there, eating.

“You’re awake.” Shang Shu noticed him and greeted him. “Come over here. I can’t finish all this.”

Hearing this, Li Feng sat down opposite Shang Shu.

In front of her were several plates of shrimp rice rolls. She extended her fair, lotus-like arm and pushed one of the plates towards Li Feng.

“You ordered so much food even though you can’t finish it?” Li Feng slightly complained, then picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Crack.

A sound of stone breaking came from Li Feng’s mouth. Pei pei… Immediately afterward, he spat out the contents of his mouth. A few small stones fell onto the table. He said expressionlessly, “There are stones in this plate of shrimp rice rolls.”

“Ahahaha.” Seeing this, Shang Shu laughed unreservedly, laughing until her stomach hurt. “It seems your bad luck hasn’t completely dissipated. But it’s just biting into a stone, no big deal.”

After saying that, she muttered to herself, “No wonder my right eyelid kept twitching. It turns out there were stones in the shrimp rice rolls. Luckily, I didn’t eat any.”

Li Feng’s face darkened. He felt a large shadow cast over his heart. Eating food and finding stones, this kind of bad luck was a bit too terrifying.

But fortunately, in the following plates of shrimp rice rolls, he didn’t encounter any problems.

Time passed peacefully for the rest of the morning.

Someone called Shang Shu and said, “Miss Shang, the airship has been repaired. You can depart again.”

“Okay, I understand. Wait for us there. We’ll be right over,” Shang Shu replied.

Then, the two of them set off, not staying at the hotel any longer. They hailed a taxi, and in less than half an hour, Li Feng and Shang Shu arrived at the airport.

Huang Chen, having received the news from somewhere, was already waiting there. When he saw Shang Shu and Li Feng, he hurried over and said, “Welcome, esteemed guests, to our airport again. Is there anything I can assist you with?”

“Nothing much. We’re preparing to leave,” Shang Shu said lightly.

“I wish you both a safe journey,” Huang Chen said flatteringly, wanting to leave a good impression.

…

…

Three minutes later, an airship took off from the airport.

Inside the airship.

“Finally, we’re going to the last stop. After helping the Kai family suppress the dungeon, it’s time to return to Daqian City.” A look of relief appeared on Li Feng’s face.

For the past few months, he had been constantly on the move, without a moment’s rest.

Shang Shu glanced at him and said, “After this trip to the Kai family, I also need to return to my family. There are some things I need to do. Oh, right, there’s one more thing. The identity of that corpse hasn’t been confirmed. It’s still unclear which family they belong to.”

Li Feng nodded and said, “No rush. The truth will come out eventually. I don’t believe they can hold back forever.”

As for Shang Shu’s departure, he didn’t mind much. He estimated that he had about a month, enough time to gather the Epic Fragments.

Instead, Li Feng found himself missing Keli a bit. With Shang Shu, this lucky charm, around, he wondered if he could enhance the Phoenix Pistol?

However, Keli might not necessarily be at home since Beihai Academy had already started its new semester.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.

The airship finally arrived safely in Dayu City.

This made Li Feng let out a sigh of relief. “Phew, it seems my bad luck has indeed been completely cleared.”

Shang Shu also patted her ample chest and said, “I also feel safe now.”

Li Feng gave her an exasperated look.

Before long, the airship landed safely at the Kai family’s estate.

“Li Feng, it’s been a while.” As soon as Li Feng stepped off the airship, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

Keli rushed over, looking at Li Feng with enthusiasm.

“While on the airship, I was wondering if you would be at the Kai family. I didn’t expect you to actually be here. Why? Did you skip class?” Li Feng asked.

Keli rolled her eyes and said, “Do I look like that kind of bad student? Don’t you know? Recently, all the major dungeons in Great Xia Nation have experienced riots. The mentors of Beihai Academy have all been dispatched. The academy is currently suspended. Not only the mentors, but even many students have been conscripted by the nation. However, due to my special status, I remained at the Kai family.”

“Has the situation become this serious?” Li Feng frowned. He really hadn’t had time to pay attention to these matters in the past few months.

Because most of his time was spent inside dungeons.

“Of course. But luckily, we have your help. Otherwise, the situation would probably be even worse,” Keli said.

At the same time, her eyes curiously assessed Li Feng. This student, who was in the same grade as her, had walked ahead of everyone else. The gap in their strengths had long become an insurmountable chasm.

“But the current situation is still not optimistic. Not only are there dungeon riots, but more than ten new dungeons have also gradually formed within Sky Blue Star.” Just then, Katie walked over and said.

“Greetings, Senior Katie.” Li Feng quickly bowed. Katie had helped him back at the Li family.
