**Chapter 135: The Devil's Bargain**

Lin Feng's eyes locked onto Wen Xiyue's, his mind racing with the implications of the devil's proposal. He could feel the weight of the consequences, the weight of the price, bearing down on him.

"I want to know what kind of power you're offering me," Lin Feng said, his voice low and even. "What makes you think I'd be willing to pay the price?"

Wen Xiyue's smile grew wider, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Ah, but that's the beauty of it, Lin Feng. You're not just paying a price, you're making a deal. A deal that will give you everything you've ever wanted."

Lin Feng's grip on the basketball tightened, his fingers aching with tension. "And what's the catch?" he asked, his voice laced with skepticism.

Wen Xiyue's laughter was like a crack of thunder, echoing through the room. "Oh, there's always a catch, Lin Feng. But I assure you, this one is worth it."

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with the possibilities. He could feel the devil's influence, like a subtle tug on his shoulder, drawing him closer.

"I want to know more," Lin Feng said, his voice firm. "What kind of power are we talking about?"

Wen Xiyue leaned back in his chair, his eyes glinting with excitement. "Ah, but that would be telling. You see, Lin Feng, the power I'm offering is a double-edged sword. It will give you everything you've ever wanted, but it will also take something from you."

Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat as Wen Xiyue's words hung in the air. He could feel the weight of the decision, the weight of the choice, bearing down on him.

"What do you mean?" Lin Feng asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

Wen Xiyue's smile grew wider, his eyes glinting with a malevolent light. "Ah, but that's the beauty of it, Lin Feng. You'll figure it out soon enough. After all, you're a smart boy, aren't you?"

Lin Feng's eyes locked onto Wen Xiyue's, his mind racing with the implications of the devil's proposal. He could feel the weight of the decision, the weight of the choice, bearing down on him.

"What do you want from me?" Lin Feng asked, his voice firm.

Wen Xiyue's laughter was like a crack of thunder, echoing through the room. "Oh, I want everything, Lin Feng. And in return, I'll give you everything you've ever wanted."

The room fell silent, the only sound the heavy breathing of the two men. Lin Feng's heart was racing, his mind racing with the possibilities. He knew he had to make a decision, but he was torn between the promise of power and the warning in his heart.

And then, just as he was about to make a move, the lights flickered and went out, plunging the room into darkness.

"Time's up, Lin Feng," Wen Xiyue's voice echoed through the darkness. "Make your choice. And remember, the devil's always waiting for you."

As the lights flickered back on, Lin Feng's eyes locked onto Wen Xiyue's, his mind racing with the implications of the devil's proposal. He knew he had to make a decision, but he was torn between the promise of power and the warning in his heart.

And then, just as he was about to make a move, he felt a hand grab his shoulder, spinning him around.

"What's going on?" Lin Feng asked, his voice laced with confusion.

But the person behind him was faceless, their eyes glowing with an otherworldly light.

"You're coming with me, Lin Feng," the voice whispered in his ear. "You have a game to win."

And with that, Lin Feng was dragged out of the room, leaving Wen Xiyue's laughter echoing behind him.
