Jixiang Tea House was nestled in a small alley, an establishnt aged with years.
The dark wooden planks of the building made it clear that it was old.
Such old architecture was not uncommon in Yanjing. After all, as the ancient capital of six dynasties, these old buildings were everywhere.
Chu Feng parked his car at the entrance of the alley and went alone into the tea house.
The tea house was obviously booked for the day as there was no one on the first floor.
An old man in a blue shirt was sitting at the counter, dazed, and did not react at all to Chu Feng’s arrival.
After taking a look at the old man in the blue shirt, Chu Feng went straight up to the second floor.
In fact, the second floor was arranged just like the first, with neither private rooms nor elegant seats.
It was just another hall, albeit slightly more refined in its setup.
Chu Feng imdiately spotted the senior who had saved him at Broken Wave Cliff last ti, seated by a window.
The old man was still in a long robe, his expression unchanged as always.
"Senior, you called for ," said Chu Feng with a gregarious smile, as he sat opposite the old man.
"Would you like so tea?" the old man gestured, and Chu Feng spoke.
Looking at the tea in front of him, Chu Feng said, "Senor, what does this an, cutting ties tea?"
The old man replied, "If you think it is, that’s not incorrect."
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng’s expression changed slightly and he said, "Senior, my master just gave your contact and told to seek you out."
The old man stated plainly, "Our positions differ."
Without touching the tea in front of him, Chu Feng said, "But Senior, you must know that you are no match for ."
The old man nodded and said, "Yes. But in my hand, I possess a bargaining chip you dare not act rashly against."
As the old man’s words fell, the Xuan Level Expert from the Shangguan Family, whom Chu Feng had beaten up before, appeared on the second floor of the tea house, dragging Official Huang with him.
"Chu Feng, save quickly! I don’t want to die!" Official Huang also cried out loudly upon seeing Chu Feng.
Chu Feng looked at Official Huang and shook his head, saying, "I told you you’re silly. I already called to warn you to be cautious, and yet you got caught; what else should I call you if not silly?"
Gritting her teeth, Official Huang countered, "You think I won’t bite you? If you can’t rescue , even if you rescued my sister, she wouldn’t agree to be with you for your ghostly mischief."
Hearing this, three black lines imdiately appeared on Chu Feng’s forehead.
This Silly Girl really dared to say anything, there wasn’t anything she feared saying.
Worried that the Silly Girl might say sothing else that would embarrass him, Chu Feng said, "Alright, I’ll save you."
After finishing, Chu Feng looked at the man from the Shangguan Family holding Official Huang and said, "What was your na? Never mind, I don’t want to know. Do you realize that kidnapping her is illegal? Do you have no regard for the law of the land?"
The person from the Shangguan Family, looking coldly at Chu Feng, said, "The Shangguan Family is gone. Do you think I still care about what’s legal?"
Hearing this, Chu Feng was also taken aback. It seed that was indeed the case, and since his Cultivation had been obliterated, he truly wouldn’t care about what was legal. Apparently, the person planning this behind the scenes had thought it through very thoroughly.
Suddenly, Chu Feng made his move, gripping the old senior’s throat with one hand.
An Earth Level against a Xuan Level. He really had no room to fight back.
"If you kill her, I’ll kill him. How about we exchange hostages now?" Chu Feng said.
The person from the Shangguan Family sneered, "You think I care about his life? As long as I can live, that’s enough for . As for others’ lives and deaths, do you think I can afford to care?"
Chu Feng released the old senior’s neck and said, "Alright, you win. You don’t care about his life, but I really care about hers. Speak, what do you want? No, what do you all want?"
The person from the Shangguan Family said, "I don’t want anything, just complete the mission."
Feigning ignorance, Chu Feng said, "What is my mission? Isn’t it to rescue people?"
The intensity in the hand of the man from the Shangguan Family grew as he said, "Do you think I’m in the mood to fool around with you now?"
Looking at Official Huang, who was already turning pale and coughing continuously, Chu Feng said, "Alright. I get it. Don’t be too hard on her. She’s silly enough already. If you make her even sillier, she’ll definitely cling to ."
"I... I’ll bite you to death!" Official Huang struggled to speak.
Chu Feng replied, "Alright, you guys go. I’ll go get the stuff. I’ll send it over tomorrow. Don’t ask to send it today. Do you think it’s that easy to get back what’s been sent out?"
The person from the Shangguan Family apparently received so instruction, nodded, and said, "Fine, you have twenty-four hours. You know where you should be this ti tomorrow. Otherwise, neither of them will survive."
Chu Feng nodded, then suddenly slamd his palm onto the table, reducing it instantly to splinters.
"I know where I should be in twenty-four hours, but if either of them suffers so much as a hair’s damage in the anti, I will flatten that place completely. I don’t care what they are up to or what they’re good for. I don’t even care if what I’m doing is illegal. As long as they are hurt, I’ll do as I said." Chu Feng’s words were clearly not intended for the people of the Shangguan Family, but for those behind them.
"I can guarantee..."
Before the person from the Shangguan Family could finish speaking, Chu Feng interrupted, "Your guarantees are worth shit. What are you but a holess stray dog? A dog without a ho, what can you guarantee?"
"Chu Feng... do you want to die?" Official Huang said with difficulty, using all her strength to utter these few words before falling silent.
Chu Feng looked at the man from the Shangguan Family and said, "Go ahead, kill her. I guarantee that without lifting a finger, you’ll spend the rest of your life in agony. I assure you, the Shangguan Family won’t even get a chance to recover to second-rate status."
It seed soone had commanded him, for he loosened his grip on Official Huang’s hand a bit.
"Keep cursing if you want, Chu Feng. There will co a ti when you can’t. Let’s go!" With that, the person from the Shangguan Family left, pushing Official Huang ahead of him.
"No one wants to see dead people. Our goal isn’t to create divisions, it’s just business. I hope you’ll think it over carefully. I don’t want to be your enemy," the old man said.
Chu Feng replied dismissively, "You don’t want to, but you already are. Does being a lackey feel good?"
The old man looked at Chu Feng and, without arguing, said, "I hope you will consider my words well. My piece is said, our friendship is done there."
