Capítulo 1860: Chapter 1857: Cheng Family Council Hall

Cheng Shang also noticed Ling Feng standing behind Elder Cheng, a flicker of surprise in his eyes, then he smiled and said, “You must be Brother Ling Feng, welco to our Cheng family!”

Saying this, Cheng Shang extended his hand towards Ling Feng.

Ling Feng smiled and shook hands with Cheng Shang. Then Cheng Shang turned and instructed, “You guys help assist with the airship matters, I will discuss with Elder Cheng what to do next!”

Having said that, Cheng Shang said to Elder Cheng, “Elder Cheng, let’s talk as we walk; the elders of the Cheng family are already waiting in the council hall.”

After walking a few steps forward, Cheng Shang saw Ling Feng following behind Elder Cheng, and he said apologetically, “Brother Ling Feng, the next matters are internal family issues, you must be tired from your journey, better rest first. I’ll handle the family matters and then have a drink with Brother Ling.”

Ling Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, not sure if Cheng Shang was doing it deliberately. Although his attitude had been good from the start, his words had the politeness of a host to a guest!

Ling Feng wasn’t really eager to get involved in the Cheng family’s affairs, but after all, Cheng Shang was the foster son of the head of the Cheng family, and just as the family head had been captured, he stepped out with a host’s deanor. Was this not a bit too hasty?

Moreover, Cheng Minxue was still here! Cheng Shang was not yet the family head!

“Young Master Shang, Ling Feng is a distinguished guest of the family head and the fiancé of the young lady, so Young Master Ling is qualified to attend the Cheng family etings!” Elder Cheng said calmly at this mont.

To provide Ling Feng with a reasonable identity to participate in the Cheng family matters, Elder Cheng had already discussed it with Ling Feng. As the fiancé of the young lady, he would stay by her side, otherwise, as an outsider, Ling Feng wouldn’t have any way to protect and care for the young lady.

“Xueer’s fiancé?” Cheng Shang showed unmistakable surprise, and beneath that surprise, a deeply hidden malice.

Ling Feng frowned slightly. He keenly sensed a fleeting hostility from Cheng Shang. If not for his significantly enhanced soul power, he might have thought he was mistaken.

“It seems, this Cheng Shang is not as amiable as he appears!” Ling Feng thought to himself.

“So it’s like that, huh!” Cheng Shang collected his surprise and said with a smile, “Brother Ling, Xiaoxue is a flower of our Cheng family. Many Cheng family disciples admire her greatly, and it was unexpected that you captured her heart. You are the public enemy of all young Cheng family disciples now!”

Listening to Cheng Shang’s slightly teasing tone, just looking at his smile gave a refreshing feeling of spring breeze.

Ling Feng smiled, “It’s rely Xiaoxue’s misguided affection. Let’s hurry, Uncle Cheng’s matters are urgent!”

Walking towards the council hall, Cheng Shang inquired in detail about the incident from Elder Cheng, who did not conceal anything but told Cheng Shang everything straightforwardly, knowing well it couldn’t be hidden, as it was already spread in the Ancient Ruins.

However, Elder Cheng did not ntion that the Wordless Heavenly Scripture had recognized Xiaoxue as its master, only saying that she fainted from excessive grief.

“How detestable!” After hearing everything, Cheng Shang displayed an angry expression, “Heaven’s Gate is truly too outrageous. They’re simply too unrestrained!”

Elder Cheng sighed and said, “At that ti, we couldn’t fight back against them, so the family head… it’s simply a disgrace to our Cheng family!”

Cheng Shang comforted, “Rest assured, Elder Cheng, we must rescue the foster father, no matter the price!”

Cheng Shang’s voice carried determination; his eyes were resolute, suggesting heartfelt sincerity.

Elder Cheng nodded slowly. At this point, they arrived at the Cheng Family Council Hall. The hall wasn’t too large, accommodating several dozen people, and it was already full of the upper decision-makers of the Cheng family.

“Esteed elders and uncles!” Cheng Shang and his party entered, Cheng Shang spoke in a deep voice to everyone, “Today, I gathered you all here because, as you should know, our Cheng family is facing an unprecedented dilemma!”

Saying this, Cheng Shang shared the information he learned from Elder Cheng with everyone. Elder Cheng nodded slightly, affirming that Cheng Shang’s account was straightforward without embellishnts.

After Cheng Shang finished speaking, he glanced around at the Cheng family mbers, whose faces were heavy with gravity. Clearly, this news was a bolt from the blue for everyone.

“Hold on a mont!” At this ti, an old man looked at Ling Feng behind Elder Cheng, frowning and said, “Cheng Shang, dear nephew, this is the Cheng family’s high-level eting; who is this young man?”

“Oh, he is my sister Xue’s fiancé Ling Feng, also a person whom the foster father greatly values!” Cheng Shang said, “I believe, given his status, he should be qualified to attend this eting!”

The old man said sternly, “Ling Feng? We have never heard of this before?”

“Third Elder, Young Master Ling was soone we encountered on our way to the Purple Cloud Star auction, a young talent greatly appreciated by the family head!” Elder Cheng spoke up at this mont: “And before the family head left, he entrusted the young lady to him entirely, so he can fully represent any decisions of the young lady!”

“If that’s the case, then let him stay here,” Third Elder scanned Ling Feng with a sharp glance, “But I have to say in advance, since you represent the young lady, you need to stand on the Cheng family’s ground. If you have any other thoughts, don’t bla for being rude!”

Ling Feng nodded, “Uncle Cheng’s favor towards is profound; I surely wouldn’t do anything against Uncle Cheng.”

“That’s good!” Third Elder snorted coldly, then spoke to Cheng Shang, “Cheng Shang, what plans do you have, say them now!”

Despite Third Elder’s rude tone, Cheng Shang showed no displeasure, knowing well that Third Elder had a naturally irritable temperant.

Cheng Shang said in a deep voice, “Actually, as soon as I got the news, I imdiately investigated Heaven’s Gate, and the results indeed shocked and… frightened !”

Everyone frowned, their eyes fixed on Cheng Shang.

Cheng Shang continued, “Previously, Heaven’s Gate was very mysterious. We only knew they had overturned the Heavenly Gate Clouds, but we didn’t know how strong they really were! Recently, however, I discovered that Heaven’s Gate’s activities have beco more frequent. Moreover, judging by the strength they seem to exhibit, I have a hypothesis, Heaven’s Gate’s power is… even greater than the combined strength of the Xin Family and Storm Sect!”
