Seeing Li Dehua's refusal to believe him, Xiao Feng's face was full of helplessness, realizing that whatever he did now would be wrong.
Since that's the case, Xiao Feng walked up to Li Dehua and gave him some money: "This is for your medical expenses. If you need anything in the future, you can come to the Xiao family to find Xiao Heng."
He might leave the city in the next few days, so he could only ask Li Dehua to talk to Xiao Heng.
At this moment, Lord Xiao and his wife were discussing Xiao Feng's affairs in the city lord's mansion. They both felt that Xiao Feng's old bad habits had not been corrected.
Otherwise, he had only been back for a few days, and there was no reason for someone to block his door.
Moreover, General Xiao's guards discovered that Xiao Feng had been visiting brothels with disciples of the Qing Sect these past few days, which was not a good sign.
Just then, Xiao Feng walked in from the door and immediately noticed that the two of them had very serious expressions.
Lord Xiao then approached Xiao Feng and asked, "You've been at the Qing Sect for so long, why can't you get rid of your bad habits?"
Xiao Feng, sensing that the two of them seemed to have misunderstood him, shook his head with a look of surprise: "I have long since changed my bad habits. This time it is not my fault."
If he hadn't followed Su Mingren to the academy, he wouldn't have known any of the students or Li Dehua.
Seeing that Xiao Feng was unwilling to admit his bad habits, Madam Xiao walked to his side and said, "If you have bad habits, we'll admit them. There's no shame in it."
The other members of the Xiao family pointed and whispered at Xiao Feng, as if they didn't believe he could do anything serious.
Xiao Feng understood that he had no credibility in the Xiao family, probably because his arrogance and domineering behavior at home when he was young had become a habit.
Anyway, he won't be staying in the City That Never Sleeps for long; the Azure Sect is the place he should be going.
Xiao Feng raised his hand and said, "I promise I won't have any of my old bad habits anymore. You can believe me."
Looking at Xiao Feng's serious expression, Madam Xiao and Lord Xiao had a feeling that he wasn't deceiving them and were willing to believe him this time.
Xiao Feng watched as the two of them returned to the top, and then, as if to say something along the way, said, "I'll be taking them back to the Green Sect tomorrow."
When they heard that Xiao Feng would be leaving soon, their faces were filled with reluctance.
However, they understood that Xiao Feng was originally a disciple of the Qing Sect, and no matter how reluctant they were, they could only let him leave.
Xiao Feng glanced at the people behind him and said involuntarily, "You all get some rest. We'll leave the City That Never Sleeps first thing tomorrow morning."
Zhou Wei and Shen Qingchen exchanged a glance and readily agreed.
Lord Xiao understood that Xiao Feng was determined to leave, so he did not try to stop him and let him leave the hall.
Before we knew it, a night had passed.
Xiao Feng arrived at the hall early in the morning, waiting for Shen Qingchen and the group of people around him to come out.
The sooner they set off, the sooner they would arrive at Qingzong. Nobody knows whether Lu Xue'er and Feng Luo have completed their mission of training down the mountain.
If the two of them return to Qingzong ahead of time, my plan to visit my family will be exposed.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, everyone in the Qingzong sect was ready.
Xiao Feng entered the hall and glanced at Lord Xiao and his wife sitting above him: "I will come back to visit when I have time in the future."
Hearing that Xiao Feng was still thinking about the Xiao family, Lord Xiao pretended to be serious and said, "When you get to Qingzong, just follow them and learn from them. Don't think about the Xiao family at all."
The Xiao family has become a powerful force in the region, and no one can sit above them and act arbitrarily.
Xiao Feng glanced at the sky outside and smiled, "It's getting late, so we'll be leaving now."
Just as he turned around, he saw Xiao Heng, covered in injuries, stumble and fall in from the doorway, landing right in front of Xiao Feng.
Looking at Xiao Heng's face covered in wounds, Xiao Feng was speechless: "Why can't you get rid of your habit of bullying and dominating the market? Now you're being bullied."
Although Xiao Heng was no longer in his memory, he could tell from Xiao Heng's help to Wang Fugui that he was definitely not a good person.
At this moment, Xiao Feng had no intention of interfering in his affairs and planned to let him learn a lesson.
To everyone's surprise, Xiao Heng grabbed Xiao Feng and said, "You've misunderstood me. Our...our Xiao family's enemies have come knocking on our door."
When Lord Xiao and his wife learned that their enemies had stormed the Xiao family's gates, they stood up simultaneously, their faces filled with shock: "What did you say? They've come to our doorstep?"
The people in the hall exchanged glances; no one could sit still.
Just then, a noisy voice came from the doorway: "Are you Xiao family members just going to cower like turtles? Do you dare to come out and cause us trouble?"
Seeing the ashen faces of City Lord Xiao and his wife, Xiao Feng realized that the people outside were very likely their enemies.
Given that, how could he possibly allow the people at the door to make a ruckus?
Xiao Feng walked out of the hall and immediately saw a number of people in the courtyard, each of them exuding a murderous aura.
Shen Qingchen and the others initially thought these people were all from the Xiao family, but no one expected that they were all there for revenge.
When the two saw Xiao Feng come out, they immediately understood what was happening and walked in front of him, blocking the way for the others.
He glanced furtively at Xiao Feng and asked, "Who are these people? Why do they have a grudge against your Xiao family?"
In their eyes, the Xiao family should be considered the wealthy landowners of Never Sleeping City, and there was no reason for such a thing to happen.
Not only was the surrounding area unclear, but Xiao Feng was also confused, and he glanced back in Xiao Heng's direction.
Having experienced what happened with Su Mingren, he was unwilling to help without fully understanding the situation.
When Xiao Heng saw Xiao Feng focusing his gaze on him, he immediately understood and walked up to Xiao Feng: "Brother, let me explain."
Xiao Feng nodded slightly: "You'd better not cut out the beginning and end, and describe the whole story exactly as it happened."
Initially, Su Mingren cut off the beginning and end, which led to Xiao Feng dealing with Li Dehua sitting in the academy, ultimately resulting in such a bitter outcome.
Fortunately, their influence wasn't too great, so they were able to suppress it.
Otherwise, the Xiao family might lose face because of Xiao Feng's situation, which is something Xiao Feng would not want to see.
Xiao Heng pointed at the person in front of him and said, "Ever since you left the Xiao family, our Xiao family and they have become mortal enemies. Recently, they have been frequently coming to us seeking revenge."
Since Xiao Feng was not as angry as expected, Xiao Heng took a deep breath and continued, "The assassination attempt a few days ago almost injured our city lord."
With just a few words, Xiao Feng's temper flared up immediately. He glanced at the crowd in front of him and said, "It seems we can't let them live."
