Chapter 582 Too Deeply Scheming



Liu Jinxiang was also startled by the night wind!

Despite being blocked by the two guards and even looked down upon by them, Liu Jinxiang was very angry.

But she never expected that Ye Feng would attack without saying a word!

This is the City Lord's Mansion. Injuring these two guards is a minor matter. If the City Lord's Mansion loses face, how can Chi Zhongcheng possibly have a good attitude?

After all, you have to consider the owner before you beat a dog!

"Mr. Ye, stop! This is the City Lord's Mansion. You mustn't do anything reckless..." Liu Jinxiang said in a panic.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Ye Feng said calmly.

As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, a middle-aged man flew directly out of the city lord's mansion.

This person is none other than Chi Zhongcheng, the city lord of Fengchi City!

As soon as he landed, Chi Zhongcheng cupped his hands and smiled, "You are the mysterious expert who helped the Jinxiang Chamber of Commerce kill Lin Chaofeng, the sect leader of the Secret Soul Sect, right? I'm really sorry, my two servants were ignorant, please spare their lives, Mr. Ye."

"I never intended to kill them."

Night Breeze said nonchalantly, and waved his hand casually.

The lightning that had been coiling around the two guards vanished instantly, as if it had never been there.

Although the two guards were pale and breathing weakly, appearing as if they were on the verge of death, they were actually not in any danger of dying and would recover after a few days of rest.

"Thank you for your mercy, Mr. Ye."

"President Jinxiang, I forgot to send you an invitation, which caused this misunderstanding. I apologize for this and hope you won't mind."

Chi Zhongcheng said to Ye Feng and Liu Jinxiang with a smile.

Liu Jinxiang shook her head repeatedly: "It's nothing, it's just a small misunderstanding, I didn't take it to heart."

Chi Zhongcheng smiled with satisfaction and said, "In that case, let's not waste any more time here. Please follow me, the banquet has already begun."

Chi Zhongcheng led the way, with Ye Feng and Liu Jinxiang following behind him into the magnificent city lord's mansion, heading towards the inner hall.

Liu Jinxiang breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Fortunately, Lord Chi is magnanimous and did not hold it against us, otherwise it would have been quite troublesome if you had injured the guards of the Lord's Mansion, Mr. Ye."

"Do you think this is a misunderstanding?" As Ye Feng spoke, he gently moved his left little finger, and an invisible restriction appeared around him and Liu Jinxiang.

In this way, Chi Zhongcheng, who was walking ahead, would not be able to hear him talking to Liu Jinxiang.

Most importantly, Chi Zhongcheng didn't even notice the restriction set up by Yefeng!

“Now you can speak without worry, he can’t hear you,” Ye Feng said.

Liu Jinxiang looked puzzled and quickly asked, "Mr. Ye, you said what happened just now wasn't a misunderstanding, what do you mean?"

"Because it was arranged by Lord Chi long ago," Ye Feng said calmly.

After a pause, Ye Feng explained, "Chi Zhongcheng and the four great families went to the Chamber of Commerce to see you. He invited you to the banquet in person and gave you the invitation directly. At the very least, he could give you a token. Even if he forgets both of them, he can simply inform the guards at the gate after returning to the City Lord's Mansion."

"But he didn't do anything, is that possible? He's a martial artist at the first level of the True Essence Realm, how could his memory be so bad! So this can only mean that he did it on purpose!"

Hearing Ye Feng's words, Liu Jinxiang suddenly realized what was going on.

yes!

Even a mortal like myself wouldn't make such a basic mistake. Chi Zhongcheng is clearly a martial arts master at the True Yuan Realm, yet he made such a mistake. This is simply illogical!

"Why did Chi Zhongcheng do this? What is his purpose?" Liu Jinxiang asked quickly.

"He was trying to test me."

Ye Feng smiled and said, "That day when he went to the meeting to see you, he actually wanted to test me, but I didn't show myself. So he came up with this little trick, deliberately having the guards provoke me, trying to force me to make a move, so that he could judge my strength by my actions."

"Just now, when those two guards were making things difficult for us, Chi Zhongcheng was watching from inside the house! He knew we had arrived and that the guards had spoken rudely to us, but he didn't show himself in time because he wanted to see me make a move!"

"If he wants to see, I will show him. However, I didn't use my full strength, so his judgment was ultimately wrong!"

After Ye Feng finished speaking, a slight smile appeared on his face.

Liu Jinxiang was stunned.

Liu Jinxiang finally realized just how deep Chi Zhongcheng's cunning was!

However, the night breeze is still the better one!

"However, I'm telling you this not to make you an enemy of Chi Zhong. It's only natural for him to test me. But in the future, when your Jinxiang Merchant Guild interacts with the City Lord's Mansion, it's best to leave room for maneuver and remain vigilant," Ye Feng continued.

"I understand, I'll be careful!" Liu Jinxiang nodded emphatically.

The night wind waved, dispelling the restrictions, and they had already arrived at the inner hall.

As soon as Ye Feng entered the hall, he saw more than twenty martial artists lined up in two rows, sitting steadily on chairs in the hall.

“The heads of the four major families are all here: Wang Yuming, Zhao Shifei, Han Yuerong, and Zhou Shuling,” Liu Jinxiang said.

"I saw it."

The night breeze nodded slightly.

Chi Zhongcheng chuckled and addressed everyone present, saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, this Mr. Ye Fengye is the mysterious expert who made a shocking move at the Jinxiang Chamber of Commerce three days ago, killing Lin Chaofeng, the sect leader of the Secret Soul Sect!"

As soon as Chi Zhongcheng finished speaking, everyone present looked at Ye Feng.

Some were curious, some were indifferent, and some were slightly hostile; they all had different kinds of looks.

The heads of the four major families stood up and said, "Welcome, Mr. Ye, to our Fengchi City's triennial Fengchi Dharma Assembly."

"Mr. Ye might have to show off a few skills later."

"Haha, with Mr. Ye's strength, he is definitely fearless."

"Mr. Ye, from now on we are friends, please bear with me."

Night Breeze didn't say much, only nodded calmly.

Chi Zhongcheng invited Ye Feng to sit next to the seats of the heads of the four major families and said with a smile, "There happens to be an empty seat here, Mr. Ye, why don't you sit here... As for Madam Jinxiang, there are no extra seats, so I'll have to trouble you."

“It’s alright, I can stand,” Liu Jinxiang said immediately.

Liu Jinxiang could also see that all the people who came to participate in this Fengchi Dharma Assembly were martial artists, and all of them were experts above the Separation and Union Realm.

As an ordinary mortal, it's already quite an achievement that I can come here to participate in the Fengchi Dharma Assembly.

If it weren't for the night breeze, Chi Zhongcheng would never have invited him.

Given this, we naturally cannot ask for more.
