Just then, Li Tianle's legal wife, Chen Hanpei, arrived.
Chen Hanpei and Liu Jinxiang chatted and laughed politely, while Li Tianle occasionally chimed in from the side.
Suddenly, Li Ningxue heard a commotion.
"Look at that guy, how long has it been since he had a proper meal?"
"Yeah, it's like a starving ghost being reincarnated!"
"How can he be so shameless? If I were him, I'd want to crawl into a hole in the ground and disappear!"
"How could Patriarch Li possibly invite someone like this to his birthday banquet? He's probably just sneaking in to freeload!"
Li Ningxue turned her head and immediately saw a young man whose clothes were covered in mud and water, standing in front of a long table full of food, eating and drinking heartily.
Seeing this, Li Ningxue was immediately furious!
The appearance of Li Ningxue shocked Liu Xiangnan, and Ye Feng saw it all.
However, Ye Feng wasn't interested; his mind was entirely focused on the delicious food in front of him.
Suddenly, the little maid, Green Willow, ran over. When she saw Ye Feng eating and drinking so heartily, a look of disdain immediately appeared on her face.
"What are you doing here? Come with me right now, this is not a place for you!"
Night Breeze waved his hand and said, "I'm already here, so let me eat my fill. Besides, isn't the point of a banquet to have lots of people and be lively? What's wrong with staying?"
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Green Willow trembled with anger.
"Come with me now! When we get there, I'll bring you some food!" Green Willow said indignantly.
"No, I think it's better here," Night Wind shook his head.
"Don't you have any self-awareness?!" Green Willow cursed.
Suddenly, a fragrant breeze wafted over, followed by an angry female voice.
"Green Willow, who is this guy?"
Upon hearing this voice, Green Willow trembled in fright.
Because this is precisely Li Ningxue's voice.
Green Willow hurriedly turned around and, sure enough, saw that her young mistress, Li Ningxue, had arrived. She explained in a flustered manner, "Miss, this fellow was brought back by Madam, he...he..."
Li Ningxue turned to look at Ye Feng, her expression one of disdain.
"How dare you sneak into my birthday party, and eat and drink so recklessly without any regard for your image! You really don't respect me at all! In that case, I'll teach you a lesson!"
As soon as Li Ningxue finished speaking, she rushed towards Ye Feng.
She moved with light steps and a figure like a swallow, arriving in front of Ye Feng in the blink of an eye, and even raised her fair right hand to strike Ye Feng's chest.
Night Wind chuckled as he watched her, neither dodging nor avoiding, and took the blow with his own chest.
Bang!
After a muffled thud, Night Wind stood motionless.
Li Ningxue stumbled back seven or eight steps, almost falling over!
Upon seeing this, the surrounding guests were all stunned.
Li Ningxue is a martial artist at the ninth level of the Kaiyuan Realm. Although she can't be considered a martial arts master, she shouldn't be unable to defeat such an ordinary freeloader, right?
Li Ningxue, her face flushed with shame and indignation, gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, you dare to fight back!"
"Which eye of yours saw me fight back?" Night Wind asked with a smile.
"Words are useless, prepare to die!"
With a clang, Li Ningxue drew her long sword from her waist and thrust it towards Ye Feng.
This longsword was purchased by Li Tianle at a high price for Li Ningxue; its name is Flying Snow.
At that moment, the longsword was drawn and thrust towards the night wind, and the surrounding temperature immediately dropped by more than ten degrees. It seemed that snowflakes were falling from the sky with the wind.
The maid, Green Willow, was so frightened that she closed her eyes and dared not look anymore. She thought that this guy would definitely die by her young mistress's sword.
Li Tianle and Chen Hanpei, who were in the distance, finally noticed this side as well.
Seeing Li Ningxue thrust her sword at Ye Feng, Li Tianle and Chen Hanpei's expressions changed drastically.
Liu Jinxiang was also extremely shocked, but the reason for her shock was completely different from that of the others.
What brings Mr. Ye here?
Didn't he say he wasn't interested in attending this birthday party?
Liu Jinxiang thought to herself, not worried about the night wind.
After all, with Ye Feng's strength, it was absolutely impossible for him to be injured by Li Ningxue!
As expected, just as Li Ningxue's Flying Snow Sword reached Ye Feng's face, Ye Feng raised his right hand and easily caught the blade of the Flying Snow Sword between his index and middle fingers.
Then, with a snap from the night wind, the Flying Snow Sword began to tremble violently.
Li Ningxue lost her grip, and the Flying Snow Sword flew out of her hand, landing seven or eight meters away on the ground.
"Who...who exactly are you?"
Li Ningxue stared at Ye Feng in shock, her face filled with astonishment.
The maid, Xiao Lü, was also extremely shocked, her face displaying a look of utter disbelief.
"Senior Ye, what brings you here!"
Liu Jinxiang shouted and ran quickly towards them, lifting her skirt.
Liu Xiangnan ran over with a joyful laugh and suddenly threw herself into Ye Feng's arms.
Ye Feng chuckled and said, "I was taking a walk when a small accident happened, so I ended up coming here with Madam Li."
Li Tianle, who was walking in this direction, immediately turned to look at Chen Hanpei upon hearing this.
Chen Hanpei explained with a shocked expression, "I didn't know this gentleman was Senior Ye from the Jinxiang Chamber of Commerce. His clothes were just soiled by mud splashed up by the carriage, so I invited him to our residence to change and wash his clothes out of courtesy..."
At this moment, all the guests in the banquet hall were staring at Ye Feng in shock; not one of them was not deeply moved.
As soon as Li Tianle arrived in front of Ye Feng, she hurriedly bowed and said nervously, "Senior Ye, my daughter didn't know your identity just now, so she suddenly attacked. Please don't blame her..."
"It's nothing, I didn't take it to heart," Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively.
Although Li Ningxue made two moves just now, she never actually killed her.
Needless to say, her first strike was nothing compared to what happened; even if Ye Feng were an ordinary person, she couldn't kill him.
The second time Li Ningxue drew her sword, she wasn't aiming for Ye Feng's throat or heart, but rather his shoulder.
Although Li Ningxue acted rashly, the fact that she didn't kill meant she had no intention of killing, so Ye Feng naturally wouldn't bother with her.
"Master, you're so mean! I've been with my mother for so long without eating a single bite, but you're here eating and drinking like this without even telling me!" Liu Xiangnan said with a wronged expression.
Shut up!
Liu Jinxiang glared at Liu Xiangnan, then looked at Ye Feng.
However, before she could say anything, Ye Feng interrupted, "I've eaten, and I've seen the legendary Miss Li, so I should be going now."
After saying that, Ye Feng strode towards the exit of the banquet hall.
