Leopard Tail wanted to kill me, but only to prevent the news from getting out that he had let Qu Xuelin break the rules. As a result, I caught him red-handed and pinned an even bigger mess on him. Naturally, he was furious and charged at me again, yelling, "Bastard! You fucking want to ruin me! Today, I'm willing to risk my life to take you down with me!"

Before I could even dodge, I felt a gust of wind blow past me.

With a muffled thud, Bai Wuchang, who had rushed forward, punched the leopard tail several meters away.

Seeing the White Impermanence's actions, I swallowed hard.

It is said that Fengmen Village attracts talented people from all over the world, and it certainly lives up to its reputation.

Given Bai Wuchang's physique, if we got into a verbal argument on the street, I would absolutely not dare to lay a hand on him.

It's not that I'm afraid I can't beat him, but that I'm afraid I'll accidentally kill him.

I never expected that someone who looks so thin and weak could have such a fast movement speed and be able to unleash such powerful combat strength in a short period of time.

I really don't know where this guy's power comes from.

Bai Wuchang knocked Leopard Tail back with a punch, his tone already tinged with displeasure: "Leopard Tail, we've worked together in Fengmen Village for so long, and I trust you. I'll give you a chance to explain if you say someone is framing you! But now you're so eager to kill someone, which makes people suspicious of your motives!"

Leopard Tail, having taken a punch from White Impermanence, began to breathe heavily: "Lord White, you know me. I hate nothing more than having my innocence insulted! How can I let this brat get away with spouting nonsense here?"

Bai Wuchang said in a deep voice, "Let him finish speaking. Fengmen Village will not let you suffer humiliation."

Leopard Tail naturally didn't want me to speak, but after glancing at White Impermanence, who was overwhelming him with force, and Black Impermanence, who hadn't made a move, he ultimately remained silent.

I am good at reading people's expressions. Without anyone reminding me, I knew it was my turn to speak. I raised my voice and continued, "I overheard the cruel official talking to a person from Fengmen Village in the private room of Yanran Tower. The other person said that he had transferred a large sum of money to his family's account and that when Lord Leopard recruits soldiers and horses to overthrow Fengmen Village in the future, he must not forget their contributions!"

The ruthless official also reminded the man that Lord Leopard was not yet the master of Fengmen Village, and that they should act discreetly, lest their carelessness jeopardize Lord Leopard's grand plan to seize Fengmen Village!

"Kid! You're talking nonsense! What do you think Fengmen Village is? Do you think you can just take it over with money?"

Leopard Tail glared and roared, "Your statement clearly shows that you have no understanding of Fengmen Village and are just making things up!"

“I’m not talking nonsense! If you didn’t have any rebellious intentions, how could you condone others’ extortion and kidnapping in Fengmen Village, disregarding the reputation that Fengmen Village has built up over the years? This shows that in your eyes, Sister Snake has lost her power and you have the confidence to challenge her!”

I stubbornly retorted, "You dare to let your men run rampant today, taking bribes behind your backs! Tomorrow you'll dare to order them to kill someone! The day after tomorrow you'll dare to peep at Sister Snake while she's bathing! The day after that you'll dare to take Sister Snake for yourself and seize Fengmen Village! At that time, everyone here will die at your hands! Sister Snake, if we don't teach him a lesson today, this guy will never have any sense of awe, but his ambition will only grow bigger and bigger! Fengmen Village absolutely cannot let this traitorous dog live!"

As soon as I finished speaking, a soft "pfft" came from behind the curtain, and then there was no more sound.

It was Bai Wuchang who spoke up at this moment: "Leopard Tail, do you admit to what this kid accused you of?"

"Lord Bai, do you really believe the nonsense this kid spouts? Today he can accuse me of plotting a rebellion, and tomorrow he'll dare to claim that he's the true master of Fengmen Village! What useful information could such a blabbermouth bastard possibly utter?"

Leopard Tail straightened his chest and replied, "I consider myself upright and honest, and I have never done anything to wrong Fengmen Village. If I am convicted based solely on this kid's words, I will absolutely not accept it!"

At this moment, the voice of Black Impermanence drifted over: "I forgot to tell you, when you ordered the arrest of these people, Qu Xuelin was also sent to the torture chamber! You are in charge of the punishments in Fengmen Village, you should know our methods, how long do you think this guy can hold out?"

Bai Wuchang then added, "The Sun God happens to be in Europe. With just one word from Sister Snake, he will investigate your family's finances. You know how the Sun God is. As colleagues, I advise you to think twice."

Upon hearing the name "Day Wanderer," Leopard Tail's expression changed drastically. He then abruptly knelt on the ground, pleading, "Sister Snake, I am utterly loyal to Fengmen Village and have never harbored any disloyal intentions. Please, be discerning and do not harm the innocent!"

"innocent?"

Snake Sister's mocking voice came from behind the gauze curtain: "Do you think there has ever been a truly innocent person in this Fengmen Village? Or do you think I need a reason to kill you?"

"Sister Snake, I admit that I did take bribes! But it was just a moment of confusion. Qu Xuelin is a talented person. I could tell that you had long intended to recruit him, so I gave him a favor to build a good relationship with him. It wasn't for money!"

Leopard Tail had previously dared to confront White Impermanence and others, but when faced with the beautiful snake, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, timidly saying, "I originally thought that this month I was on duty managing the lower realms, and that I could suppress such a simple conflict by myself, so that it would not reach your ears. But I did not expect that these people could make such a big fuss and even cause a death!"

"I admit that this whole thing started because of me, but from beginning to end, I never intended to harm the interests of Fengmen Village, much less betray you! It was just that my actions were mishandled, causing things to escalate. I beg you, please forgive me this time, considering the great contributions I've made to Fengmen Village! I even risked my life to save you from the Black Robe Organization back then!"

It’s over!

The moment I heard Leopard Tail utter those words, I knew this person was beyond saving.

Now it seems that the story Wei Shengnan told me was true. The beautiful snake was indeed captured by Duan Jinyan, and the person who risked his life to save her from Duan Jinyan must have been Leopard Tail.

Just as I suspected, after Leopard Tail finished speaking, the Serpent Beauty's voice came from behind the gauze curtain: "I had almost forgotten that we've known each other for so many years! Since you've been by my side all this time, don't you know the rules of Fengmen Village? Do you know that Fish Gill was once harmed by Thousand-Hand Buddha, causing his family to be destroyed, and he has always known that Thousand-Hand Buddha lives in Fengmen Village, but he has never been harmed. Why is that?"

Leopard Tail clenched his fist: "Because the rules of Fengmen Village cannot be broken."

Clang!

A short knife was thrown from behind the gauze curtain, landing right in front of Leopard Tail: "Out of consideration for our past relationship, I'll give you a chance to end your own life, without causing trouble for your family."
