Chapter 2142: Chapter 2141: Debt Collection

Ling Feng was taken aback and looked at Yu Linglong.

"According to this sequence number, the last family is Zhu Fei’s!" Yu Linglong said.

"Then let’s hurry and see what’s going on!"

Ling Feng said, and imdiately started walking into the alley.

After taking just a few steps, a knight on horseback shouted, "Stand back, Ministry of Governnt Affairs on duty, clearly no entry!"

Ling Feng ignored him, released his Divine Sense for a sweep, and discovered several soldiers rummaging through the yard and house, leaving the yard in chaos due to their haphazard searching.

At this ti, a delicate-looking woman was holding a seven or eight-year-old girl, both with tear-stained faces, but neither dared to move.

Seeing this scene, Ling Feng got a bit angry, thinking, luckily, he arrived in ti, or he wouldn’t have known that Zhu Fei’s wife and child were in such a situation!

Not caring what had happened, he imdiately stepped forward.

The knight, seeing this, swiftly drew his long sword, "Intruders will die!"

"Move aside!"

Ling Feng glared at him, releasing his full aura and leaping into the air.

The knight wasn’t to be outdone, swinging his long sword towards him.

But before he got close, he felt darkness before his eyes and intense pain in his head; the knight imdiately staggered and fell to the ground.

Not just him, everyone else too, all fell to the ground in agony, clutching their heads in pain.

"Mind Soul Art?"

The person in the carriage exclaid, then lifted the curtain to look outside.

Seeing Yu Linglong’s exquisite face, this person froze, then was utterly shocked!

"It’s you?"

Yu Linglong also frowned, stepping forward: "Chu Cheng, you still recognize ?"

With a reluctant hold on the curtain, Chu Cheng’s face was extrely awkward: "P–Princess, weren’t you long missing..."

"Can’t I co back?"

Yu Linglong retorted, then imdiately asked, "What’s going on? What are you doing here?"

"This household owes money and hasn’t repaid; we are here to confiscate!" Chu Cheng said.

Although the King of Panlong Nation had been Tu Kong for a while, Yu Linglong was still the forr Princess, making him a bit uneasy, so his deanor remained respectful.

Yu Linglong nodded and then asked, "Is what you said true? I’ll go ask that mother and daughter; if it’s not true, you’ll be in trouble!"

"This..."

Chu Cheng thought to himself, what does this have to do with , I’m just following orders.

But he couldn’t say that, as it would seem like he was betraying his superior.

So Chu Cheng could only awkwardly nod and say, "Please go ahead, Princess."

Yu Linglong nodded and stepped into the yard.

At this ti, the mother and daughter were already scared, not knowing what had happened; the soldiers who had been fierce before were now all lying on the ground.

Seeing a pretty young woman co in, the woman looked at her in a daze, not daring to speak.

"Are you Zhu Fei’s wife?" Yu Linglong asked.

The woman nodded, then, not daring to et her eyes, slightly lowered her head and asked, "Wh-who are you?"

"Who I am is not important. I heard that you owe money and haven’t repaid it. Is that true?" Yu Linglong asked.

"No, that’s my brother’s debt. He has no money to repay, but the Ministry of Governnt Affairs says we’re related, so they’re forcing us to repay, but we have no money!" the woman said.

"So that’s it!"

Yu Linglong nodded, then turned to look at Chu Cheng, who had gotten out of the carriage and followed them: "Owing money isn’t a major cri like murder or arson, so is it necessary to involve the entire family?"

"Princess, you don’t know, it’s the Ministry of Governnt Affairs’ latest rule; I’m just following orders!"

Seeing Yu Linglong’s displeasure, Chu Cheng spoke cautiously.

"Latest rule? I think this woman’s brother owes soone at the Ministry of Governnt Affairs money. Otherwise, why would you co in person to collect the debt?" Yu Linglong asked with a cold smile.

"....."

Chu Cheng’s face reddened with embarrassnt, awkwardly explaining: "Not at all, I happened to have nothing to do today, so I ca to perform my duties!"

Yu Linglong frowned: "How much money does your brother owe?"

"T-ten thousand wen," the woman said.

Ten thousand wen is one ounce of gold.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng imdiately laughed: "I thought it was a lot, just one ounce?"

With that, he directly took out a freshly exchanged gold bar and tossed it to Chu Cheng: "Here’s two ounces, no need to give back the change. Get your people and get lost!"

"You!"

Though he got an extra ounce of gold, having been scolded, Chu Cheng’s expression changed, looking at him and asking: "Who are you?"

"Who I am isn’t important; go back and tell your Ministry of Governnt Affairs’ boss this isn’t over. When Zhu Fei returns, he’ll personally co to settle this!" Ling Feng said in a deep voice.

"What a joke, isn’t Zhu Fei already dead?" Chu Cheng asked.

Ling Feng paused, staring at him in shock: "What did you say? Who told you Zhu Fei is dead?"

"He went with Commander Mu Hu to Another World, and there’s been no news ever since. No news ans he’s dead!" Chu Cheng said.

Ling Feng nodded, then squinted his eyes: "This is your reason for bullying their woman and child?"

"..."

Chu Cheng was taken aback by the question, then quickly shook his head: "Of course not!"

"Hmph, whether or not it is, get lost now!"

Ling Feng waved his hand, thinking there was no need to concern himself further, and when Zhu Fei had ti to return, he could handle it himself.

Chu Cheng’s face was not pleasant, but with Yu Linglong present, he said nothing more, turning to see his subordinates getting up, looking embarrassed, so he said irritably: "What are you standing around for, get moving!"

As he left Zhu Fei’s house, he thought to himself: "Yu Linglong has actually co back, what’s going on? No, I need to report back to my superior imdiately!"

A crowd of people hurriedly withdrew, and looking at the ss in the yard, Ling Feng said to the woman: "Sister-in-law, don’t be afraid, no one will bully you anymore!"

"Wh-who are you?" the woman asked in confusion.

"I’m a brother of Zhu Fei, and he sent

to find you this ti!"

Ling Feng said, taking out the jade pendant: "This is the token he gave; if you don’t believe , seeing this will make it clear."

The woman took the jade pendant, examined it, and her eyes imdiately reddened!

Then she quickly looked up: "He-he’s not dead?"

"Of course not!"

Ling Feng shook his head, smiling: "Not only is he not dead, but he’s living comfortably. This ti I’ve co to take you to reunite with him!"
