"This is really strange. I checked Shenhou's body on the boat and made sure there was nothing wrong before throwing him into the river. Logically speaking, Shenhou shouldn't be able to come back to life. Could it be that he was proficient in some kind of feigned death technique or martial art and tricked us?" Ye Feng said to himself.

Zhang Xianguang sighed and said, "Perhaps that's true... Senior Ye, City Lord Cheng Shuanghan wishes to see you. Is it convenient for you now?"

"It's convenient, there's nothing inconvenient about it. Lead the way," Ye Feng said with a smile.

Zhang Xianguang then led the way for Ye Feng, and together they strode toward the city lord's mansion in the center of Fengding City.

Before long, Ye Feng and Zhang Xianguang arrived at the city lord's mansion in Fengding City.

However, the place where Ye Feng met Cheng Shuanghan was not the main hall of the city lord's mansion, nor the study, but the back garden of the city lord's mansion.

Cheng Shuanghan was a slender middle-aged man, quite handsome, and one could tell that he must have been incredibly dashing and debonair in his youth.

Even now, Cheng Shuanghan is still very elegant, exuding a strong aura of coldness and refinement from head to toe.

Cheng Shuanghan was not alone; he had four other people with him.

Ye Feng had seen two of them before.

These two people are Cheng Shuanghan's beloved daughter, Cheng Xiuxiu, and Chief Constable Wang Xinglong!

The remaining two were an elderly man with white hair who was old and slightly overweight. This old man always had a smile on his face, giving people a kind and approachable feeling.

The other one appeared quite serious, his eyes warily scrutinizing Ye Feng, as if trying to determine Ye Feng's identity.

"Are you Ye Feng?" Cheng Shuanghan asked Ye Feng curiously.

Cheng Xiuxiu also cast a curious glance at Ye Feng.

Night Breeze nodded and said, "That's right, I am Night Breeze."

“Mr. Yefeng, I apologize for the presumptuous invitation,” Cheng Shuanghan said, bowing.

Ye Feng laughed and said, "The Twelve Zodiacs have been causing chaos all over Fengding City, owing countless blood debts and committing heinous crimes. Even if the city lord hadn't invited me, I would still have come to Fengding City to rid the people of this scourge."

Upon hearing Ye Feng say this, Cheng Shuanghan immediately nodded in agreement.

Cheng Shuanghan then said, "Senior Ye has a compassionate heart. As the city lord of Fengding City, I thank Senior Ye here."

"You're too kind, Lord Cheng," Ye Feng said.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Wang Xinglong said with a smile, "Senior Ye, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Zhao Tongwei, the sworn brother of the city lord. He is known as the Smiling Buddha."

Ye Feng glanced at the slightly overweight old man with a perpetually smiling face and memorized his features, physique, and attire.

"This is Mu Qingshan, also the city lord's sworn brother, known as Mu Sandao," Wang Xinglong added.

Night Breeze then nodded slightly to the serious-looking man.

Mu Qingshan looked at Ye Feng, her expression of suspicion growing even stronger.

"I don't need to say more, I'm sure you all know each other."

Cheng Shuanghan said with a smile, "Senior Ye, your ability to defeat Shenhou on the river shows your immense strength. I hope you can help me capture Shenhou and the other members of the Twelve Zodiacs this time."

"must."

Night Breeze nodded.

Wang Xinglong replied, "Senior Ye, please don't blame me for asking questions. After all, I am Wang Xinglong, the chief constable of Fengding City, and I can't help but ask a few more questions."

Ye Feng has already met with Wang Xinglong.

However, when Ye Feng met with Wang Xinglong last night, he used the identity of Shen Hou.

Therefore, this was the first time Ye Feng had met Wang Xinglong in his true form.

It's not surprising that Wang Xinglong is saying this now.

"Ask whatever you want, no need for formalities," Ye Feng said.

Wang Xinglong nodded and continued, "I wonder where Senior Ye came from, and where you met Shenhou?"

Night Breeze chuckled and said, "I come from a fairy mountain overseas, and I travel the world."

The idea of ​​the overseas fairy mountains was something Chang Qingyue fabricated in Jiang Huo's dream.

Ye Feng is now using it directly, since Wang Xinglong and the others can't expose him anyway.

Upon hearing Ye Feng say that he came from an overseas immortal mountain, Wang Xinglong, Cheng Shuanghan, and the others all showed deep surprise on their faces.

"Immortal mountains overseas?" Wang Xinglong asked.

“Indeed, there is a fairy mountain overseas called Penglai, and I come from there,” Ye Feng said.

Wang Xinglong and Cheng Shuanghan looked at each other in bewilderment.

After a moment, Cheng Shuanghan nodded slightly to Wang Xinglong, signaling him to continue asking questions.

"Senior Ye, you haven't answered the question about where you met Shenhou yet," Wang Xinglong reminded him.

Ye Feng smiled and said, "Zhang Xianguang can answer this question for me."

Ye Feng looked at Zhang Xianguang as he spoke, and Zhang Xianguang immediately said, "Gentlemen, yesterday evening, my wife and I were boating on the river when we were suddenly attacked from behind. My wife and I were no match for Shen Hou, and we were beaten badly all over. Shen Hou's purpose in attacking us was the treasure map of the Xuanbing Spirit Palace."

"Just as my wife and I were about to die at Shenhou's hands, Senior Ye suddenly appeared and saved our lives, and killed Shenhou."

"At the time, Senior Ye examined Shenhou's body in front of us and threw it into the river after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it. We just didn't expect that Shenhou was proficient in some kind of fake death technique and fooled us all."

Zhang Xianguang sighed and stopped talking at this point.

Cheng Shuanghan looked thoughtful and smiled, "I see."

Wang Xinglong said, "Everyone says that the twelve zodiac animals have strange methods and ever-changing techniques. I didn't believe it at first, but now I have to."

Zhao Tongwei, the Smiling Buddha, looked at Ye Feng with a smile and asked, "May I ask what realm Senior Ye is at?"

"Early stage of the Transcendent Realm," Ye Feng replied without changing his expression.

Ye Feng is currently equivalent to a peak Saint Realm martial artist, but he only revealed his true strength because his head was squeezed by a door.

True strength is like a martial artist's trump card; it's best not to reveal it if possible.

"I didn't expect Senior Ye to be so young yet possess such strength," Zhao Tongwei said.

"I just have the secret to staying young; in reality, I'm over two hundred years old now," Ye Feng said with a sigh.

Mu Qingshan said, "I am at the peak of the Death God Realm. I would like to spar with Senior Ye. I wonder if Senior Ye would agree?"

Night Wind thought to himself, "They've arrived after all."

Last night, Ye Feng, disguised as Shen Hou, tracked down Liang Cheng'an. He fought Wang Xinglong in the underground secret room and then fought the assassin.

Now, City Lord Cheng Shuanghan and the others here must have begun to doubt Ye Feng's identity, and even suspect that Shen Hou was Ye Feng in disguise.
