"You brat, you don't even know about the 'Eighteen Hells'? I really doubt whether you popped out from a crack in the rock!"
Chen Longxiang paused for a mont before continuing to Jiang Feng, "'Eighteen Hells' is the most famous dark force in the country! They are not just a simple assassin alliance nor an assassin force, but rather an entity that embodies all sorts of dark elents. Within them, 'Ten Halls Yama', each one of them can be considered a dostic hegemon, making others tremble in fear!"
"Is there such a statent?" Jiang Feng chuckled, "I haven't heard of it indeed. But I'm more curious, since when did the Lin Family get entangled with this force?"
"To be exact, it's not the Lin Family that's involved."
Chen Longxiang corrected, "With the Lin Family's status in the Capital City, the 'Eighteen Hells' wouldn't even look their way. But the strongest tributor within the Lin Family is indeed trying every possible way to join the 'Eighteen Hells'. I've heard they've already acknowledged one of its mbers as a godfather, so you could say they've achieved their goal."
"Quite accomplished, indeed."
Jiang Feng smiled.
After so many years, the Lin Family truly hasn't changed its nature at all.
Back when he was still in the Capital City, Lin Zekai was already doing tasks as a lackey for Ying Zheng's underlings. Now, even the family's tributor is scrambling to acknowledge others as godfathers. Truly, the saying 'when the top beam is not straight, the bottom beams will be crooked' applies perfectly!
"You brat, I'm telling you the inside stories of the Lin Family, and you still don't take it seriously?"
Chen Longxiang glared at Jiang Feng's face full of mischief, feeling utterly speechless and bewildered.
Just how bold must you be to not even put the 'Eighteen Hells' in your eyes?
"Kid, let reiterate, with your strength, you can ignore the Lin Family, but you must not take the 'Eighteen Hells' lightly!"
"Never mind the higher-ups of the 'Eighteen Hells', just within its subsidiary 'Netherworld Hall', there are countless masters at the Peak Realm! Moreover, the Hall Master of the Netherworld Hall and the superior Ten Halls Yama, any one of them, can far surpass the Peak Realm! Among them, the leader King Qinguang has already beco a legendary figure, and few have ever seen his true face!"
"Got it." Jiang Feng smiled nonchalantly, "Ten Halls Yama, right? I'll keep that in mind, and should I encounter them, I'll be sure to teach them a lesson."
Chen Longxiang was utterly stunned, left speechless.
He couldn't figure out if Jiang Feng was being arrogant or simply confident, only that Jiang Feng seed crazy!
"Alright, that's enough chatting with you. If we continue, this old man may just blow a gasket. You go about your business!"
Chen Longxiang got up, needing to calm himself to avoid being driven up the wall by Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng also stood up with a smile and turned to leave.
"Jiang Feng!"
Suddenly, Chen Longxiang spoke again, this ti more seriously.
Jiang Feng stopped and turned back.
"If my guess is correct, the Lin Family won't rashly alarm Dongfang Chi next—which is the tributor who acknowledged a person in the 'Eighteen Hells' as godfather—so the one likely to make a move against Jiangdong soon would be the Pig King! The Pig King is at Absolute Peak Seventh Level, capable of taking on a thousand troops alone! You best not leave the villa for the next few days. This old man is going to retire to a life of leisure from today onwards; from now on, the safety of the Baili Family is entirely in your hands."
Jiang Feng looked Chen Longxiang straight in the eye, "So you've decided to retire?"
"In every generation, there are talented individuals who excel for a hundred years! I'm old... I can't help but retire, but I will always be keeping an eye on you, maybe even write a book soday docunting your rise and fa across China..." Chen Longxiang said with a smile.
Jiang Feng shrugged and smiled, saying no more, and walked away decisively.
...
After parting ways with Chen Longxiang, Jiang Feng drove a Koenigsegg borrowed from Baili Xiyue straight to Yanchi Villa.
By this ti, Wu Feng, Fang Wei, and others were all in the villa. Upon hearing reports of Jiang Feng's arrival, they all ca out to greet him.
"Master!!!"
Seeing Jiang Feng get out of the car, they imdiately greeted him with raucous shouts.
Jiang Feng nodded slightly, "How's the matter down south?"
Since assigning Wu Feng to lead people south to eliminate Jing Hall last ti, Jiang Feng was just catching up with Wu Feng now to inquire.
"Not particularly smoothly..."
Wu Feng chuckled wryly, "Master, I wanted to find a chance to tell you that we found the base of Jing Hall in the south and cleared it out, thinking we'd successfully completed the mission. But who knew, we later caught a live one and found out that the Hall Master, Jing Kuiyuan, was a fake, just a decoy! The real Jing Kuiyuan had already escaped with a few core mbers! I've left so brothers to continue searching for him in the south, but so far, there's been no news!"
"Escaped?"
Jiang Feng furrowed his brows, his expression turning cold.
Though Jing Kuiyuan's not a significant threat, having enemies hiding in the shadows is nevertheless a concern!
Seeing Jiang Feng's anger, Wu Feng and the others imdiately dropped to their knees, "We failed to complete the task successfully, please punish us, Master!!"
At this mont, they were extrely fearful, knowing well the consequences of angering Jiang Feng!
"Keep searching! At any cost, find those few who slipped through. Deploy scouts to keep an eye on the Provincial City and Binhai, as Jing Kuiyuan likely won't remain dormant for long; he's probably headed to these places for a final showdown!" Jiang Feng ordered coldly.
"Yes!!!"
Wu Feng quickly acknowledged, not daring to breathe loudly!
"And the body?" Jiang Feng asked indifferently.
"It's kept in the cold storage, I'll lead you there now!"
Wu Feng discreetly wiped away a cold sweat and quickly stood up to guide Jiang Feng into the villa.
Having taken only a few steps, Wu Feng suddenly turned to Jiang Feng, "Master, there's one more thing..."
"Speak!" Jiang Feng said, expressionless.
"Last night, the over a hundred bodyguards from the Lin Family of Beijing you instructed to surrender to us, I took them all in. But there were also two pretty girls, said to be captured by the second young master of the Lin Family for Chang Chunweng's amusent, and they were students from a prestigious university in the Capital City. They remained unconscious when brought here, I wasn't sure how to handle it, so I placed them in the guest room..."
"Release them." Jiang Feng said blandly, "Reassure them kindly and send them back to the Capital City."
"Understood!"
Wu Feng nodded and accompanied Jiang Feng further into the villa.
With Wu Feng's lead, Jiang Feng arrived at the cold storage, dismissing everyone, and used Demon Skill to absorb Lin Lianwei's corpse, gathering a supply of energy.
At this mont, Baili Xiyue's call ca through just as expected, questioning, "Jiang Feng, where have you run off to early in the morning? I haven't even seen you!"
Jiang Feng held the phone a little away to avoid the loud voice piercing his eardrums, "Just out for a spin, having so breakfast."
"Hmph, what breakfast can't you have at ho? Do you need to go out and buy it? Bring so back for as well, I want the sesa cakes from Temple Street!"
Baili Xiyue, though feigning toughness, now couldn't bear even a mont of separation from Jiang Feng, and said coquettishly.
