"Yicheng, how did you find out about it? Who told you that Nianhua was in trouble?"
Su Lie had been busy and hadn’t paid much attention to this matter. Now, thinking back, he realized Pei Yicheng seed to have found out way too quickly. How did he get the news even faster than Master Jinwu?
"I’ve always had people secretly protecting Nianhua." Pei Yicheng did not hide this any longer.
"What?" Su Lie never expected this, and he mumbled, "So did I seek Master Jinwu for nothing?" And even gave up Jinshui Bay!
"You went to Master Jinwu?" Pei Yicheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "What terms did you agree to with Master Jinwu?"
He knew Master Jinwu would never agree to help without sufficient benefits.
"Five hundred thousand, plus Jinshui Bay." Su Lie wasn’t upset about the money. It was just that, considering Master Jinwu’s speed, compared to Pei Yicheng’s, he felt it wasn’t a fair deal.
"It would have been better if you had given it to !" Pei Yicheng raised an eyebrow. He was quite happy to see the Su Family willing to pay such a price to find Xu Nianhua. He said, "Next ti sothing like this happens, you can co to ."
Su Lie glared, speaking irritably, "Don’t worry, I will definitely protect my sister well in the future!"
How could he take it lightly now? Tomorrow, he would hire a bodyguard specifically to protect his sister, determined never to let her fall into danger again!
"Of course, I don’t an that such things will happen to Nianhua again. I’m saying, next ti you can’t find soone, or if there’s sothing inconvenient to handle, you can co to !" Pei Yicheng reminded.
"This ti was by chance, what use do I have of you?" Su Lie pursed his lips and said, "In the underworld, besides Master Jinwu, there’s only that elusive Du Cheng. Among those I know, only Master Jinwu!"
The most important thing was, Master Jinwu was of similar age to his father, and they weren’t very acquainted.
Pei Yicheng’s lips curled slightly, "I am Du Cheng."
Su Lie was stunned for a mont, then shook his head and said, "Don’t joke around. Du Cheng has been famous in Ningbei for nearly ten years now, no, seven or eight years. How old were you then? Fifteen or sixteen?"
"When have I ever joked with you?" Pei Yicheng pursed his lips. Back then, his relationship with Pei Guozhong was at its worst. When he encountered Ling Dong, Ling Dong was injured while hunting, and he saved him. At the sa ti, he brought him into a world he had never seen before.
There, he worked tirelessly, with a fearless spirit and skilled fists, becoming the king of the underworld, known alongside Master Jinwu as the two powerful figures of Ningbei.
However, Pei Yicheng still yearned for the sunlight. Most things were handled by Ling Dong and Wu Fan, while he studied at school. Until that accident, when he injured his leg saving soone, visited countless famous doctors, and returned to Gaoliang County in disillusionnt.
He still rembers, it was the darkest ti of his life.
And Xu Nianhua, like a ray of light, ward his heart.
"Pei Yicheng, are you serious? Are you really Du Cheng? Why would you use the na Du Cheng?" Su Lie was completely shocked, so much so that he couldn’t even speak properly, staring at Pei Yicheng with disbelief, trying to discern if it was true or not.
"Du is my mother’s surna." Pei Yicheng explained.
Su Lie cursed to himself, if he had known Pei Yicheng was the famous Du Cheng, why would he have gone to Master Jinwu?
"Alright, you’re impressive!" Su Lie raised a thumb at Pei Yicheng, genuinely admiring him. He’d heard a bit about Du Cheng’s exploits, his fearless determination was what impressed him the most.
