The Greatest Village Chapter 517: Making Amends for Past Mistakes

Chapter 517: Chapter 517: Making Ands for Past Mistakes

Looking back at Lin Xue, who was holding back her laughter, Ling Feng said speechlessly, "What’s so funny?"

"Nothing, I just think the two of you are quite amusing!" Lin Xue replied.

Ling Feng rolled his eyes, "Amusing? Nonsense!"

While they were talking, Ling Feng’s phone began to ring persistently. Seeing an unfamiliar number, he answered with confusion, "Who is it?"

"You didn’t save my number?"

Chen Xiao’s voice ca through sowhat astonished, and he asked loudly.

Upon recognizing his voice, Ling Feng chuckled, "Got busy and forgot. So, what’s up, you need

for sothing?"

"A contact from the Black Dragon Sect in this area has gone missing. Was it you?" Chen Xiao inquired.

"You..."

Ling Feng was taken aback, nearly blurting out how did you know, but he quickly shifted gears and responded, "What are you talking about?"

"Stop pretending, your reaction just now has already proven it was you. Don’t go anywhere, wait for us!"

Chen Xiao said this and hung up the phone abruptly!

Ling Feng had a speechless expression, thinking, what’s going on here, do mbers of the Black Dragon Sect react this quickly?

Feng Ling was just a minor character in the Black Dragon Sect, yet her disappearance had been noticed within just a few hours!

How did Chen Xiao and his people find out about this?

Lin Xue was right beside him, and having heard snippets of the conversation through the phone, also realized what had happened, thus she frowned and said, "Looks like things are about to get complicated!"

"What’s complicated about it? We’ll talk when Chen Xiao shows up," Ling Feng said with a shrug, unconcerned.

Only a few minutes later, there was an urgent knock at the door. He went to open it and Chen Xiao and Zhang ng barged in!

"Where is she!"

Facing Ling Feng, Chen Xiao’s face was extrely grim, and he asked in a very impolite tone.

Ling Feng looked at him, "Why so anxious? What’s she to you anyway?"

"She’s from the Black Dragon Sect, capturing her could jeopardize the operation. Didn’t we agree that you were supposed to notify

in advance of whatever you do!" Chen Xiao shouted furiously!

Ling Feng smirked, "I thought she was just a small fry. I just wanted to ask her so questions, didn’t think it would stir up any trouble."

"You thought?"

Chen Xiao’s voice rose sharply, his face full of anger, "Now, everyone in the Black Dragon Sect in the county is on the move, and they’re searching the streets for her. Do you realize the consequences this could have?"

Ling Feng: "..."

Well, this was awkward.

Knowing he had done wrong and that the questioning was rightfully deserved, Ling Feng gave a wry smile. Just as he was about to apologize, the bedroom door opened, and Zhang He walked out with a stern face!

"What’s all the noise about, keep it down!"

"And who might you be?"

Upon seeing a stranger, Chen Xiao asked displeasedly.

"Here’s my badge!"

Zhang He said and handed over his identification.

Chen Xiao, who had been visibly impatient, looked down and after a glance, was montarily taken aback. He then imdiately snapped to attention, "Good day, sir!"

"Not shouting anymore?"

Zhang He gave him a look, closed the bedroom door, turned, and took a seat on the sofa.

Ling Feng watched the scene, speechless. Was this the disparity in ranks? They were yelling at , but upon seeing the Deputy Director, they imdiately stood at attention and saluted?

Though I’m not the Director, I’m still a Lieutenant Colonel. Why are they so rude to !

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he beca, so he glared at Chen Xiao and turned back to the sofa.

After sitting down, Ling Feng looked at Zhang He, "Did you find out anything?"

But instead of answering his question, Zhang He turned his head and asked, "Was it your idea to kidnap this woman?"

"Yes, it was , what’s the problem?" Ling Feng asked.

"Nonsense!"

Zhang He glared, "It’s no wonder they’re questioning you; you have no discipline!"

"Exactly, Director Zhang, the people from the Black Dragon Sect are going crazy. If Luo Nanlin hears about this, wouldn’t it startle the snake and make him change his route and cross the border elsewhere?" Chen Xiao chid in.

His intention was to justify his own actions while simultaneously scolding Ling Feng, ensuring that the latter would be blad for the incident.

However, unexpectedly, Zhang He glared at him, "You shut up too. Ling Feng is a colonel, how do you speak to a superior officer!"

"Yes! My mistake..." Chen Xiao looked baffled but quickly stood at attention and admitted his error.

Now Ling Feng was puzzled, looking back and forth between them, "What’s going on?"

"What do you an, what’s going on?"

Zhang He turned back and asked.

"How co this guy is so respectful to you?" Ling Feng said, speechless.

"Oh, that. I just got the order yesterday to co over and be the director for a while," Zhang He said.

Ling Feng: "I see..."

After understanding the situation, he imdiately chuckled, "Well, that makes it easier. I didn’t an to, and I didn’t expect the Black Dragon Sect to react so fiercely. How do you think we should handle this?"

"Cold salad!"

Zhang He gave him a look and said with no pleasure.

Chen Xiao, upon hearing this, instantly lost the apologetic expression on his face and replaced it with a smug one.

Clearly, his expression conveyed, "I told you so, but you wouldn’t listen. Now that our new director has spoken, you believe him, right? You created this ss, now you bear the consequences!"

Upon hearing that, Ling Feng also felt a jolt in his heart, shook his head, and said with a wry smile, "Well, then, I’m willing to take responsibility for my actions. I’ll accept whatever consequences there are!"

No sooner had he finished his statent than Zhang He suddenly curled his lips in a smile, "Forget it, let’s call it even. No need to pursue your responsibility for this matter!"

Chen Xiao: "..."

Ling Feng was also stunned, "What do you an call it even, I’ve done sothing ritorious? When did that happen?"

"You were wrong to abduct soone, but as it turned out, you accidentally captured the Saintess of the Black Dragon Sect, so you could say you were quite lucky!" Zhang He said calmly.

"What?"

Ling Feng’s eyes imdiately bulged out with understanding!

"Saintess? She really hid it well!"

Once he realized what had happened, Ling Feng imdiately stood up, ready to rush into the bedroom and thoroughly question Feng Ling!

But Zhang He grabbed him, "Don’t bother, she’s asleep and won’t wake up for a while!"

"Oh."

With no other option, Ling Feng sat back down, then indignantly said, "I knew sothing was off. Feng Ling’s behavior was too peculiar; she nearly tricked !"

Zhang He laughed, "She did trick you. If I hadn’t co, wouldn’t you have released her soon?"

"Well, I planned to release her after capturing Luo Nanlin. But now, it looks like it’ll be difficult to catch Luo Nanlin since she’s been captured," Ling Feng said with a rueful smile.

At this point, Lin Xue couldn’t help but interject, "What kind of position is the Saintess of the Black Dragon Sect? Is it important?"

"Important? It’s more than that!"

Zhang He smiled slightly and patted Ling Feng on the shoulder. "You really are a lucky general. We’ve been gathering countless pieces of information but haven’t found any clues about the Saintess. And now, she ends up being caught by you!"

"Capturing her is like controlling more than half of the Black Dragon Sect. Tell , is that important or not!"
