However, something Wanda never expected happened: when his soul drifted out of Xiao Fu's body and he tried to enter Lin Feng's body, he was stopped by a surge of extremely pure power.
And at that moment, Wanda finally noticed—
Although Lin Feng had indeed been making eye contact with him earlier, he hadn't been affected at all.
His gaze remained calm and composed, even carrying a faint, almost unnoticeable hint of confidence.
"H–How… how is this possible!?"
For the first time, a trace of fear appeared on Wanda's face.
The move that had always worked flawlessly suddenly failed!
And the closer he got to Lin Feng's body, the more Wanda's soul felt an intense burning sensation—so uncomfortable it made him instinctively recoil.
"So you're finally showing your true form."
Seeing Wanda's soul emerge from Xiao Fu's body, Lin Feng lifted a corner of his mouth and was just about to make a move—
But Wanda immediately dissolved into a thick fog and flew straight out of the house.
"Brat! Just you wait!"
"I definitely won't let you go…!"
Saying the fiercest words while running the fastest.
Wanda understood perfectly well the meaning of "as long as the green hills remain, there's no need to fear running out of firewood."
He knew that if he stayed, he couldn't do anything to Lin Feng. So fleeing first and thinking of another plan later was the only option.
This failure was completely beyond Wanda's expectations.
He had naively believed that with his overwhelming abilities, retrieving the other fragment of the Mafengka Pearl would be nothing more than a trivial task.
He never expected that among this group of children there would be someone as terrifying as Lin Feng.
Neither his wind-controlling superpower nor his soul-possession ability worked on the boy at all.
This was the second time in his life that the always-invincible Clan Leader Wanda of the Lan Tribe had tasted defeat.
The first was when he had been sealed away.
And because Wanda had no idea what other powers Lin Feng still possessed, he didn't dare stay entangled with him.
His current strength was already much weaker compared to several hundred years ago. If he were sealed again for a few hundred—or even a dozen—years, he might very well dissipate completely.
Only by being cautious can one sail safely for ten thousand years. Wanda no longer wanted to experience the taste of failure.
Seeing Wanda flee so decisively, Lin Feng could only shake his head in helplessness.
He really hadn't expected Wanda to run away so cleanly.
But against a soul-form Wanda, Lin Feng truly had no good solution right now. He didn't have anything like a four-dimensional plastic bottle that could capture him.
"Uh…"
"What happened…?"
"Where is this…? Why am I here…?"
After Wanda left Xiao Fu's body, it didn't take long before Xiao Fu slowly regained consciousness.
But all memories from the time he was possessed had been erased, so when he woke up, he was completely confused.
"Xiao Fu, you're okay. This is my house."
Seeing Xiao Fu's bewildered expression, Lin Feng smiled lightly and spoke.
"Lin Feng? Why did I come to your house?"
"And why was I trapped under that umbrella basket…? What in the world happened?"
Hearing Lin Feng's voice, Xiao Fu turned his head immediately and indeed saw his familiar classmate.
But no matter how he tried, he couldn't understand why—just moments ago—he had clearly been beside an old dry well in Wind Village, yet with just a blink, he ended up here in Lin Feng's house trapped under an umbrella basket.
"This is a long story… By the way, do you really not remember anything?"
While removing the basket from Xiao Fu, Lin Feng gave a helpless smile.
He really had no choice. Hopefully Xiao Fu wouldn't blame him.
Considering his own strength, if he directly attacked Xiao Fu, even the slightest touch would leave the boy with fractures.
So this was the only way Lin Feng could restrain Xiao Fu's body while it was being controlled by Wanda.
"I remember… I was beside a dry well… Ah! Right! That terrifying guy whose eyes were glowing red…!"
With Lin Feng's reminder, Xiao Fu began piecing together what he could.
Soon, he recalled that before losing consciousness, he had indeed been startled by someone with glowing red eyes.
And it was because he locked eyes with that person that he lost consciousness.
"Even if I explained everything now, you probably wouldn't understand any of it."
"It's already late. Xiao Fu, go home and rest, or your family will worry."
"Tomorrow morning, we'll go find Doraemon together."
Since the enemy had come knocking so openly, Lin Feng couldn't just ignore it anymore.
Originally, he thought they wouldn't visit Wind Village so soon. After all, yesterday he had been making a cake with Shizuka.
It seemed that his presence had caused the current story to deviate from the original storyline of the great adventure.
In the original, when Doraemon and the others went to Wind Village, they would've invited Shizuka along.
But things had already changed, so Lin Feng had to act.
"???"
Although Xiao Fu's head was still full of question marks, he still followed Lin Feng's instructions and went home.
He was still in a dazed state, and his mental energy had been heavily drained by Wanda's possession.
After sending Xiao Fu off, Lin Feng subconsciously glanced at the other corner of the living room ceiling—there, a small black whirlwind hovered in the air, its red eyes watching him.
If he wasn't mistaken, this should be the second of the three Wind Children.
Like Fengzi, its true form was a miniature typhoon.
But in the original manga, its strength seemed far greater than Fengzi's. It could snatch Fengzi right out of Nobita's hands, which was quite impressive.
And for some reason, in the original story, although it was released accidentally by Temujin…
After coming out, it somehow knew exactly where to go—flying straight toward Wanda.
