Near noon, at the Shen family’s old house.
Shen Hong had just finished dealing with the Jincheng International business and was about to take a rest in the study when Shen Qiu knocked on the door.
"Father, I'm back."
"Come in."
Shen Hong put down the documents in his hand and asked, "Have you finished what I asked you to do?"
"We're starting to get some clues. Let's get a few more people to investigate this afternoon, and we should have some results."
Shen Qiu said this, and then added: “When I came back just now, I saw Kang Feng wanted to see you, and his face was not very good. I have asked him to sit in the yard.”
"Kang Feng?"
Shen Hong showed a surprised look, "What is he doing here?"
Chen Qiu shook his head. "I don't know. I haven't had time to ask in detail. There is also an elderly man next to Kang Feng. I don't know his origins."
Shen Hong frowned slightly. "Old man Kang Feng is not ordinary. He is a man of real ability. He is now over a hundred years old. He also participated in the war over eighty years ago, killing countless enemies and making great contributions. After the establishment of Xia Kingdom, Old man Kang Feng came to Jincheng to settle down. He has been committed to promoting traditional martial arts and has also accepted several disciples. He is quite famous in Jincheng. Our Shen family has not had much contact with him. What is his purpose in coming here this time?"
Chen Qiu said, "Father, I don't think we can guess anything here. Why don't we go out and ask him what he wants to do? If he wants to rely on his reputation in Jincheng to cause trouble for our Shen family, it won't be that easy!"
Shen Hong nodded, "Let's go out and take a look."
Soon the two of them arrived at the front yard. When Kang Feng saw Shen Hong and Shen Qiu coming out, he didn't stand up, but just nodded slightly to Shen Hong, with a very noble demeanor.
There was an old man next to Kang Feng who looked to be in his eighties, but he did not sit down. Instead, he stood respectfully next to Kang Feng without any dissatisfaction on his face.
If Shen Qi were here, he would be able to recognize that the old man standing next to him was the old man he met in the park that morning.
The old man's name was Fan Cheng. As Kang Feng's disciple, he was somewhat famous in Jincheng. However, the Shen family didn't care much about Fan Cheng, so naturally they didn't know him.
Shen Hong bowed and said, "Mr. Kang has come to visit us. I apologize for not coming to greet you."
Kang Feng still didn't stand up, but nodded slightly and said, "Master Shen is busy with affairs, and I shouldn't have come to disturb him, but there are some things that I have to intervene."
Shen Hong was even more puzzled.
"May I ask, Mr. Kang, what is going on?"
Kang Feng closed his eyes and leaned back on the stone bench. Fan Cheng beside him said, "Master Shen, I was practicing boxing in the park this morning..."
Fan Cheng recounted what had happened that morning, and concluded, "As martial artists, I lost in ordinary sparring. It's my own fault for not being as skilled as my opponent, and I have nothing to say. But you, the Shen family, shouldn't have said that my Nei Rou Quan has flaws. This is a provocation to my mentor, and I can't swallow that, so I've come here to demand an explanation! I also ask Patriarch Shen to call out the young man who sparred with me in the park this morning, and have him explain to my mentor in person what's wrong with Nei Rou Quan!"
People who practice martial arts have strong sectarian views, which sometimes even go beyond the imagination of ordinary people, so Shen Hong was very puzzled by the actions of Kang Feng and Fan Cheng.
It's just that I said that Nei Rou Quan has some shortcomings. Is this not allowed?
If Neijuquan is really that powerful, how could it be defeated?
However, even though he was puzzled, Shen Hong did not dare to ignore the requests of Kang Feng and Fan Cheng, and turned to look at Shen Qiu.
"Does anyone in our Shen family practice martial arts?"
"No."
Chen Qiu shook his head. Although traditional martial arts are powerful, with the rapid development of science and technology, in the face of various powerful thermal weapons, traditional martial arts have gradually declined. There are very few young people willing to practice traditional martial arts.
Shen Hong said, "Mr. Kang, do you think this is a misunderstanding? No one in our Shen family practices martial arts, so how could we possibly compete with Mr. Fan? There must be some misunderstanding here, right?"
Fan Cheng snorted coldly, "Misunderstanding? I saw that person enter your Shen family's gate with my own eyes this morning. Could I have been wrong?"
"I lost to you Shen family members because I'm not as skilled as them. It's my fault for not having the skills to do that. But he absolutely shouldn't have said that the Nei Rou Quan that my master taught me is not good. If that were to get out, wouldn't it be a disgrace to my master's reputation? Patriarch Shen, please stop shielding that man and make him come out immediately!"
Shen Hong's face also looked a little ugly. Although Kang Feng had a very high prestige in Jincheng, their Shen family was not one that could be bullied. Kang Feng and Fan Cheng came to his house without even saying hello, and in a tone of accusation. How could he tolerate it?
So his tone began to turn cold.
"Since Mr. Fan said he saw that person enter the gate of my Shen family, then please tell me what characteristics that person has, so that I can look for him in my Shen family!"
Fan Cheng could certainly see that Shen Hong was starting to get angry, but he had no intention of giving in or compromising.
For people who practice martial arts, bravery comes first. If he gives in because of the power of the Shen family, then all the decades of practice he has put into boxing will be in vain.
"Okay, then I'll tell you what that person looks like! He's about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, about 1.8 meters tall..."
Fan Cheng immediately recounted Shen Qi's characteristics, and then both Shen Hong and Shen Qiu were stunned.
Shen Qi's characteristics were so obvious that they guessed it was Shen Qi as soon as Fan Chengyi mentioned it. Moreover, Shen Qi had indeed gone out in the morning, and the time was exactly the same.
Kang Feng and Fan Cheng actually want to settle the score with Shen Qi?
This is intolerable!
If it were someone else, Shen Hong might have to consider Kang Feng's face. After all, Kang Feng was also a well-known figure in Jincheng, and he had a high prestige. Several of his disciples also had impressive achievements in Jincheng. If they offended Kang Feng, their Shen family would be in trouble.
But no matter how famous Kangfeng is, can it still be compared with its own ancestor?
Thinking about the various magical methods that his ancestors had used, Shen Hong really didn't find it strange at all.
What is Fan Cheng in front of Shen Qi?
Not to mention Fan Chenggong, even if Kang Feng showed up in person, it wouldn't be worth Shen Qi's attention.
Over a hundred years old, is that impressive?
My ancestors have lived for hundreds of years!
"Mr. Kang, Mr. Fan, I already know who you are talking about. He is indeed a member of our Shen family, and he is also my distant uncle. However, I don't think my uncle has done anything wrong. If it was my uncle who said that your Nei Rou Quan has flaws, then it must be flawed. There is absolutely no mistake about this!"
Kang Feng, who had been resting with his eyes closed and looking like a master, suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Master Shen, what do you mean by this?"
Shen Hong retorted, "That's exactly what it means. I don't care who you two are or what your backgrounds are. As long as you have a dispute with my second uncle, it must be your fault!"
