As Chu Feifei fell, a look of pain appeared on her face, which was full of gratitude.
Seeing this, Jiang Feng knew that the snake venom in her body had begun to take effect. He stepped forward and looked at Chu Feifei's bitten ankle.
Her originally slender and fair ankle had swollen to the size of a small bun, with the veins turning blue. The fresh blood flowing from the snake bite wound had turned black!
"Did… did a venomous snake really bite ?"
Chu Feifei also looked at her ankle, and her delicate body couldn't help but tremble again.
This desolate and wild place was far from the city's hospital, and she had heard that if bitten by a highly venomous snake, without finding an antidote serum in a short ti, one would surely et their end!
"Sit still." Jiang Feng, sparing words like gold, remained indifferent from beginning to end.
He squatted down next to Chu Feifei. Feeling his sudden closeness, she naturally felt sowhat uncomfortable, instinctively shrinking her jade-like foot and blushing as she said, "What… what are you doing?"
"No nonsense!" Jiang Feng said sharply.
Chu Feifei pouted, feeling a bit wronged…
As Jiang Feng got even closer, her heart began to pound instinctively again.
Recalling Jiang Feng "peeping" at her before, could it be that she was happy too soon?
He wasn't trying to save her life but was planning to take advantage of her after dealing with others?!
Was this what they called driving away the wolf at the front door, only to let in the tiger at the back?!
Instantly, the gratitude Chu Feifei had managed to feel towards Jiang Feng for saving her life vanished, and she beca extrely wary and fearful again…
In such an uninhabited place, even if Jiang Feng did intend to take advantage of her situation, she had no ans, crying to heaven wouldn't help, nor would the earth heed her calls…
Why did he have to be so inhumane, bullying her while she was injured…
Just as an intense battle raged in Chu Feifei's mind, Jiang Feng already grasped her injured ankle, holding it in his palm.
"Ah…!" Chu Feifei suddenly cried out, her fear escalating!
She was wearing hot pants, and with Jiang Feng's grip, that long, beautiful leg was revealed even more thoroughly.
Her fair, smooth thigh, appearing barely grabbable, led down to a flawless white calf, and a delicate, cute little foot, snuggled in flat sandals, with ten pristine, cherry-like toes, shyly perked up. They were immaculate, exuding a refreshing fragrance, showcasing an invincible youth.
Seeing Jiang Feng seemingly about to "act", Chu Feifei was tearful yet unable to cry, tightly gripping the grass beneath her, forced to close her eyes in humiliation, tears of tension streaming down her cheeks.
However—
Jiang Feng wasn't as lewd as the girl imagined him to be!
He rely extended a hand, lightly brushing above Chu Feifei's ankle.
A wisp of black gas, invisible to the naked eye, instantly erged from his palm, enveloping Chu Feifei's ankle.
That wisp of black gas seed to possess miraculous healing powers, quickly halting the black blood oozing from the wound.
Then, the wound miraculously healed, the swollen ankle deflated, and even the tense blue veins inside returned to normal, blood flow restored to its smooth state, everything was back to the way it should be.
Chu Feifei suddenly felt her ankle wasn't as painful anymore and instinctively opened her eyes, only to find herself incredulously widening her clear eyes!
"What… what did you do?" She looked at her foot again, then at Jiang Feng in bewildernt, asking with a face full of confusion.
Jiang Feng expressionlessly put down her little foot, then stood up, not uttering a single word.
Before the girl could continue questioning, the mountain path outside erupted with the noisy roar of cars; soon, the sound of more vehicles approached.
...
Twenty minutes later, Chu Feifei's father personally arrived at the scene with his n.
Before that, the vanguard he dispatched had already sent Ah Wei to the hospital, and Ah Guang's body had been transported away.
As for the assassin, they had tied him up and thrown him onto a vehicle for transport. Where he was taken, Jiang Feng did not know, nor did he wish to.
"Young man, I just heard from Feifei, thank you for saving my daughter!" Chu Feifei's father, dressed in traditional Tang suit, personally approached Jiang Feng and expressed his gratitude, accompanied by a group of burly n.
As for Chu Feifei, she followed closely beside her father, occasionally shyly stealing a glance at Jiang Feng, only to lower her head again, her cheeks red with embarrassnt over having misunderstood Jiang Feng several tis earlier.
However, the group of burly n all fixed Jiang Feng with unfriendly stares!
Each of them was tall and burly, their eyes filled with murderous intent, wearing wireless earpieces, standing straight as guns; they were clearly well-trained.
"It was nothing." Jiang Feng neither shook hands with the man nor cared to say more.
Hmm?
The man in the Tang suit was a bit surprised, seeing Jiang Feng's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but pause. Then he understood, realizing that this young man probably didn't know who he was.
"Young man, my na is Chu Renxiong."
Chu Renxiong took out a black-gold business card, politely handing it to Jiang Feng with a smile, "This is my card. If you ever need anything in Binhai, feel free to call . If it's within my ability, I'll definitely do it. If it's not, I'll find a way to get it done!"
"No need."
Jiang Feng could sense Chu Renxiong's sincerity and confidence but still shook his head indifferently, not accepting the business card.
What?
Seeing this, both Chu Renxiong's subordinates and Chu Feifei adjacent were taken aback.
They couldn't believe soone would dare to refuse a card offered by Chu Renxiong himself!
Is this guy truly ignorant or just pretending to be?
In fact, since seeing the na "Chu Renxiong" on the card, Jiang Feng knew exactly who the person was.
One of the leading figures in Binhai City's Underworld, wielding authority over a third of the city's nightti dealings, respected and feared in both black and white circles, a true and mighty overlord.
Unfortunately, the current Jiang Feng was no longer the Nangong Family's sorrowful son-in-law!
He had spent six hundred years in the Cultivation World, trampling over countless races across the starry skies, vanquishing nurous Immortal Venerables, and shaking the Cultivation Worlds to their core. A re city like Binhai was too small in his eyes, not to ntion the so-called overlords reigning within this limited realm.
"If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving." Jiang Feng and Chu Feifei were but strangers crossing paths; he only saved her because the snake that bit her was one he had driven out with his power. Now that everything was settled, he naturally intended to leave.
"Young man, where are you heading? I'll send a car with you," Chu Renxiong offered.
Jiang Feng shook his hand, striding away.
"Hey, you haven't told your na yet!" Chu Feifei hurriedly stepped forward, anxiously calling out.
No response.
Chu Renxiong's brow furrowed.
"Boss, should I send soone to follow him and find out this kid's identity?" asked a trusted aide with gold-rimd glasses, approaching Chu Renxiong.
"No need. Soone who can look away from a card personally handed by , either hasn't heard of my reputation or is playing hard to get. Another possibility is having the confidence, not considering accepting it."
Having been publicly brushed off in front of his subordinates, Chu Renxiong unusually didn't get angry, instead, speaking with significance, "The first is impossible, the second is unlikely; he seems more like the third type."
Everyone fell silent, unable to imagine what kind of confidence Jiang Feng possessed to disregard the olive branch offered by Chu Renxiong.
"Regardless, he holds no malice towards Feifei, and that's enough. We don't need to startle the snake. "
...
Jiang Feng walked down the barren mountain, his destination clear—to return to the Nangong Family!
According to his past life's mory, after being discarded on the desolate mountain, the Nangong Family also encountered misfortune!
Family destroyed!
The benevolent Old Sir Nangong to him was murdered!
The Nangong Family, that welcod him when he was at his lowest and took him as a live-in son-in-law, suffered destruction!
Even his faithful fiancée, Nangong Qingcheng, who guarded his grave with loyalty, was brutally raped and murdered, leaving not a complete corpse behind!
After gaining unmatched power in the Cultivation Worlds, Jiang Feng had returned to Earth several tis, intending to uncover the truth behind the Nangong Family's demise.
However, by then, Earth was a different place!
Those who knew the truth were long gone!
Despite his boundless abilities, he couldn't unravel that abyssal mystery, that burning hatred following his own slaughtered and discarded self!
He only knew that Nangong Qingcheng's brutal murder served as a catalyst, leading to the downfall of the Nangong Family, with Old Sir Nangong's bones sinking into the river!
When Nangong Qingcheng's mutilated body was discovered, she was clutching a green ring tight in her hand.
That ring was the killer's remnant, forcefully snatched from the murderer's hand by Nangong Qingcheng, monts before her tornted death, and clutched firmly in her palm thereafter!
Now reborn, returning to this pivotal junction in fate, he would certainly not allow those tragedies to unfold again!
And certainly make the mastermind behind the Nangong Family's obliteration and his fiancée's ruin answer for it!
