Outside Yinpan Mountain, in a local restaurant.
Jiang Feng and Feng Yueji left the Tianyin Sect and stopped by to eat here on their way.
The two hadn't eaten anything since morning. Now that things were finally resolved, even if they were going home, they had to fill their stomachs first.
At this moment, Feng Yueji had changed her clothes. She had taken off her blood-stained training clothes to avoid scaring others with the residual bloodstains.
She put on a white dress, which accentuated her perfect and graceful figure even more. Her curvaceous body was voluptuous, her legs, long and as fair as lotus roots, were completely exposed, smooth and unblemished.
On her exquisite, snow-white little feet, she wore a pair of high-heeled sandals that exuded a goddess-like elegance. Her ten toes sculpted like pink jade were spotless, and her pedicured nails looked as pink and pristine as a newborn, appearing all the more clean and pure, not to be toyed with.
As for her face, there was no need to elaborate, with peach blossom cheeks and almond-shaped eyes. Her cold pride mixed with charm made her unforgettable at first glance.
Under countless gazes, the two went straight to an empty table and sat down.
In a place , Feng Yueji had the say. She took the menu, ordered several dishes, handed it to the waiter, and then gracefully crossed her legs, still somewhat shyly gazing at Jiang Feng.
Although the awkward atmosphere was gone after getting out of the car, it would take some time for them to become as natural as usual.
"Master, would you like to drink some wine?" Feng Yueji asked, looking at Jiang Feng with her beautiful eyes.
"No, I still need to drive," Jiang Feng shook his head.
"But I want to drink a little, you wouldn't mind, would you?"
Jiang Feng thought for a moment and said, "Then drink a little."
He knew that Feng Yueji's mood wasn't as good as it seemed.
After all, today's events, in any case, involved her coming to destroy her own sect and killing her master and martial uncle!
No matter how deserving they were, it was a significant blow to her.
If Feng Yueji were heartless, it wouldn't matter, but she was quite affectionate and righteous, so she needed some relief, especially from alcohol.
Before long, the waiter brought a bottle of white wine. Jiang Feng took it proactively and said to Feng Yueji, "Drink as much as you can; just a taste is enough."
He was particularly sensitive about women drinking. Whether it was Murong Qian getting drunk once or later Situ Yan drinking too much, both did things that left him speechless.
This time, with such a long way back, he didn't want Feng Yueji to go back drunk as well.
"Oh," Feng Yueji nodded, then reached for the bottle and filled her glass.
Jiang Feng was about to watch her pour the wine, but just then, his phone rang. Seeing the caller, it was Yu Hang.
Zhu Ge Yuheng rarely called him. Once he did, it must be something important!
At this moment, Jiang Feng glanced at Feng Yueji and said, "I'll take this call!"
Feng Yueji watched Jiang Feng turn away with a faint gaze, wanted to say something, but couldn't bring herself to, and suddenly felt a wave of disappointment.
She mistakenly thought the call was from either Nangong Qingcheng or Chu Feifei, and Jiang Feng wanted to avoid suspicion, so he chose to take the call in a quiet place.
He's really good to those girls...
Suddenly, Feng Yueji thought that if one day in the future, Jiang Feng suddenly disappeared from her side, if she could also call Jiang Feng to exchange pleasantries, how great that would be...
But she knew that was a privilege only Jiang Feng's women had, and she certainly wasn't one of Jiang Feng's women yet.
The master-disciple relationship had brought her and Jiang Feng closer in many ways, but would it limit their further development?
At this thought, Feng Yueji smiled bitterly and shook her head, feeling even more complex and troubled. She then picked up the glass of white wine and took a big gulp.
In the restroom, Jiang Feng called Yu Hang back.
Once the call connected, Zhu Ge Yuheng immediately asked, "Mr. Jiang, where are you now? Are you in Binhai?"
"No, I went out to handle something, I'll be back soon, is there something?" Jiang Feng asked indifferently.
"There's an urgent matter I must report to you—this is news I just found out, from the Provincial City Huangfu Family, Huangfu Qinggang has emerged from seclusion!"
"Huangfu Qinggang?" Jiang Feng frowned.
"Yes! Huangfu Qinggang is Huangfu Qinglong's younger brother, ranking third! He is the martial strength support of the entire Huangfu Family, and now that he's out, he has announced he will come to Binhai to settle scores with you!" Zhu Ge Yuheng said cautiously.
Although recently Zhu Ge Yuheng hadn't met with Jiang Feng much, it didn't stop him from paying close attention to Jiang Feng's every move.
From the first time Jiang Feng took Chu Feifei to the Huangfu Family to annul the engagement, to all the subsequent events, Zhu Ge Yuheng was fully aware, only choosing not to comment.
He deeply admired Jiang Feng's audacious actions, like causing a stir at the Situ Family, deterring the He Family, annihilating the Yihu Alliance, and executing Le Zhengyi in public. His accomplishments were seen as equivalent to the deeds of a god.
However, he couldn't remain silent any longer!
Ultimately, it all stemmed from Chu Feifei, and now that the Huangfu Family intended to retaliate against Jiang Feng severely, he couldn't shirk his responsibility!
"Mr. Jiang, you may not fully understand, within the Huangfu Family, the truly daunting ones are not Huangfu Qinglong, but Huangfu Qingzhi and Huangfu Qinggang!"
"It's just that Huangfu Qingzhi went into politics, rising to the core of power in the Provincial City, becoming one of the top leaders, so he cherishes his reputation and generally doesn't get involved in such matters."
"But the third brother, Huangfu Qinggang, is a martial arts powerhouse!"
"Decades ago, Huangfu Qinggang made a notorious name for himself in the Provincial City, becoming the martial arts foundation and weapon of mass destruction for the Huangfu Family!"
"After you killed Huangfu Shang, Huangfu Qinglong immediately went to Zijin Back Mountain, sought his third brother out of seclusion, and though Huangfu Qinggang didn't agree at the time, after two days he finally emerged, likely at the peak of his power to seek revenge on you!"
Zhu Ge Yuheng quickly explained, fearing Jiang Feng wouldn't fully understand.
"This Huangfu Qinglong, he really didn't heed my warning," Jiang Feng unexpectedly showed calmness and coldly laughed in response to Zhu Ge Yuheng's urgent report. "He's thoroughly pushing the entire Huangfu Family down a dead-end, and since that's the case, I won't leave any room for them."
Zhu Ge Yuheng was taken aback by his words, "Mr. Jiang, you mean?"
"Keep an eye on them for me, no matter what new moves Huangfu Qinggang makes, inform me immediately. The Huangfu Family has completely exhausted my mercy and patience this time. They started this path, and they will crawl to the end of it!" Jiang Feng sneered!
