C506 The Underworld Forces
"One day, I will annihilate the Cai family and flatten the Divine Seal Palace!" Han Feng's body emitted a terrifying coldness. Soon after, Ling Daonan slowly spoke. “ Han Feng, I have been enduring all these years. I have been working hard to manage my family's business. Although I don't dare to say that I'm wealthy enough to rival an entire country, I still have my own men and horses. F * ck, if you raise a matter, I can help you."
" Thank you, Uncle. " A sharp glint flashed in Han Feng's eyes. The Ling family might be his help, or it might become his resistance.
Han Feng didn't dare to believe what Ling Daonan said earlier. He knew very little about Ling Daonan, even if he and his father were sworn brothers. Nearly twenty years had passed, and it was hard to predict what would happen to Ling Daonan. Who knew if there would be any changes in Ling Daonan?
Besides, Ling Daonan's words were full of doubts. For example, during the battle at the border, when East Qin Kingdom ambushed Han Potian, how did Ling Daonan know about it? And where was he at that time?
Han Feng had lived in Hongqiao Town with his mother since he was young. For sixteen years, Ling Daonan had never sent anyone to see their mother and son. Was it to protect their safety, or did he think that Han Potian's bloodline was useless and could be abandoned?
After all, when Ling Daonan befriended Han Feng's father, it was the time when Han Feng's father, Han Potian, was at the height of his power, shining brightly, but after Han Potian fell into dire straits... Ling Daonan didn't think of saving him, but wanted to find out more about him.
It was not that Han Feng was overly suspicious. It was just that the world was unpredictable, and people's hearts were ever-changing. Han Feng had to be careful. Ling Daonan told him about the past. Did he selectively ignore some details, or... He wanted to use the old forces that Han Potian had left behind to achieve some of his goals.
People needed time to prove themselves.
"Sorry to bother you for so long, uncle. Han Feng should retire now." Han Feng stood up and said while cupping his hands.
"Stay here and have a meal. I see Wanqing that little girl. I'm interested in you." Ling Daonan revealed a meaningful smile, which made Han Feng smile bitterly. Then, he said, "Uncle, you are making fun of me. Han Feng will leave first. I will come and greet you in the future."
"Go. The Royal City is now your world. I really miss your age. You are free to do whatever you want." After saying the last word, Ling Daonan suddenly stopped, as if he had realized what he had said was wrong. After that, he smiled faintly, "Remember to be careful of the Qi family and those people from the lower three families."
"The three lower families?" Han Feng's eyes suddenly turned cold. He cupped his fists and bid farewell to Ling Daonan before leaving the courtyard.
Just as he was discharged from the hospital, Han Feng saw Ling Wanqing smiling as she walked up to him. She was asking about something and seemed to be very interested in the conversation between Han Feng and Ling Daonan.
Regarding this, Han Feng could only shake his head, "No comment."
"If you don't want to tell me, then don't. Anyway, I will know sooner or later." The depths of Ling Wanqing's eyes flickered with strands of light, as if she wanted to see through everything.
...
In the Lyi family, the patriarch of the Lyi family, Li Wenxin, the patriarch of the family, Ling, and the patriarch of the Yang family, Iron King Yang, were all in the living room. Their bodies were filled with an unfriendly coldness.
"This time, the King's Banquet will give us face for the three lower families. They were all beaten up by Han Feng, although it was only a competition among the younger generation. But if we don't teach that kid a lesson, he will only say that the three lower families are useless. " The patriarch of He Family and Ling said coldly. His son and Kun... He was killed by Han Feng before the King's Banquet. The hatred in his heart towards Han Feng was very deep. Plus, in this year's King's Banquet... All of the He family's disciples had fallen, making him determined to get rid of Han Feng. Otherwise, how could he feel at ease?
"That's right." Of the three lower clans, the leader of another clan... Iron King Yang also spoke in a cold tone, "This kid has extraordinary talent and terrifying combat strength. I heard that he has already broken through to the Genuine Martial Stage Level Seven. In just a few years, he will definitely break through to the Astral Martial Stage. At that time... Iron King Yang said."
"There's no need to wait until that time." The patriarch of the Lyi family, Li Wenxin, was the calmest and most relaxed. He smiled and said, "Although his talent is strong and his potential is deep, he still needs to grow. It's not something that can be done in a short period of time. The three of us... How powerful is the power he controls? Even if he destroys an academy... It's not hard..."
After hearing Li Wenxin's words, a hint of a smile appeared in the eyes of He Ling and King Yang Tie. That's right. With the combined forces of the three clans, the entire kingdom would tremble, let alone destroy an academy.
"This Han Feng is arrogant and doesn't take the rewards of the King seriously. He disdained to join the four great academies. This way, things would be much easier. Without any rewards, he won't be protected by the royal family and the Ministry of Rites. No matter how famous Hongtian Academy is, it was merely a barbaric force in the kingdom, even if it was really destroyed. No one will pursue this matter." He Ling laughed, as if he had already seen the destruction of Hongtian Academy.
"Although that's the case, there are still some old monsters in Hongtian Academy. They will be very difficult to deal with. I'm afraid it will be quite difficult to eliminate them all." Iron King Yang was somewhat worried. He had fought with some experts of the Hongtian Academy in the past. They were not simple figures, and they were all very strong. He didn't want to see some Low Level of the Astral Martial Stage warriors on the surface.
Over the years, the Hongtian Academy had been keeping a low profile, and many people had started to look down on them. However, the royal family and Nine Great Aristocratic Families were very clear about this. Twenty years was just a snap of the fingers for these experts. The resources and reserves of the Hongtian Academy were still there.
If all these experts were to come out at the same time, it would definitely be a very terrifying line-up.
The Hongtian Academy had been passed down for thousands of years, and it was a group of unfathomable old demons. This made Iron King Yang feel very afraid.
"Brother Iron King is right. The Hongtian Academy is indeed very difficult to deal with. Therefore, let's first see if we can get rid of Han Feng alone. If we don't have the chance, we'll let all the people of the Hongtian Academy die here. Don't start a war against the Hongtian Academy unless it's absolutely necessary." Li Wenxin said in a flat tone.
"I heard from Brother Wenxin that you seem to have a plan in mind. Could it be that you have already made some arrangements?" The lower three clans usually had some minor conflicts, but in general, as a result, He Ling understood Li Wenxin very well. When he heard Li Wenxin's arrangement, he could roughly guess some things.
"Hehe." Li Wenxin didn't say much, and then he lightly clapped his hands. A moment later, several figures slowly walked in. They carried a strong murderous aura, as if they had experienced countless life and death battles. It caused one's heart to tremble when looking at them.
"Sect Master of the Cold Water Gang, the old ancestor of the Celestial Fiend Alliance, and the Sect Master of the Earth Devil Sect. It has been a long time since we last saw each other." When Iron King Yang saw these people, his eyes slightly trembled. He immediately revealed a smile. Li Wenxin was really meticulous. He had actually invited the three big shots of the State of Zhao's underworld over.
In the Nine Great Aristocratic Families, the lower three families were in charge of the underworld, but there were a lot of things that needed to be done. They wouldn't do it themselves, but hand it over to the people of the underworld. The Cold Water Gang, Celestial Fiend Alliance, and Earth Devil Sect were the three major underworld forces that served the lower three families.
However, the Cold Water Gang, Celestial Fiend Alliance, and Earth Devil Sect were located in different regions. It wasn't something that could be gathered in a short period of time. Now that the three of them had appeared at the same time, it was obvious that Li Wenxin had planned this early.
The State of Zhao had been peaceful for the past few years, and the three lower families didn't have many enemies. Many things were directly resolved by the experts of the Ming Prefecture. The rule of the underworld had gradually relaxed, but if there was an order... The three great factions would surely come. After all, the three lower tribes were closely related to the three great factions... The three lower tribes were even stronger.
"Greetings, Patriarchs." The three major underworld heads did not put on airs of arrogance, but bowed slightly towards the three clan heads. Regardless of power, in terms of cultivation, these three clan heads were above them.
If one day, the top forces of the three mafia forces were stronger than the three lower families, perhaps the situation that they were leading would change dramatically.
"Everyone, there's no need to be overly courteous. Please give me a seat." Li Wenxin smiled faintly and exchanged glances with the other two Clan Leaders before saying, "I've invited the three of you here today because I have something I need you to do."
"Master of Lyi family, don't worry about it. As long as it's done, the three of us will do our best." The old ancestor of Celestial Fiend Alliance said.
"Alright, I'll be frank." Li Wenxin smiled, "There's an annoying kid in this year's King's Banquet called Han Feng. Have you heard of him?"
The Sect Master of Cold Water Gang nodded slightly and said, "I've heard of him. He is the number one genius of the King's Banquet, the son of Marquis Han and Han Potian. Naturally, I know that this kid is going to stir up a storm in the kingdom."
"I heard that this kid is good at Devil Technique. I also want to recruit him into the Earth Devil Sect. In the future, I will cultivate a devil that will shock both the black and white Dao." The Sect Master of the Earth Devil Sect was a tall and sturdy man, and his words were very direct.
However, the expressions of the three Sect Masters turned cold, causing the Sect Master to shut his mouth in time. He knew that he had said something wrong, so he said with a smile, "Look at what the three of you are trying to say. This operation is to get rid of this brat?"
"That's right. If possible, kill Han Feng alone. If there is anyone who can help him, then kill them all, no matter who it is." He Ling said coldly. How could he not take revenge for his son's death?
"But I heard that this kid has the support of the Hongtian Academy. He is a proud son of heaven. The Hongtian Academy will definitely do everything in its power to protect him. I want to kill this kid. We will definitely offend the Hongtian Academy." The old ancestor of Celestial Fiend Alliance was worried. Among the people present... He was the oldest, and had lived for a hundred years. Knowing the glory of Hongtian Academy, he didn't dare to act rashly.
"Don't worry, as long as you act cleanly and wipe away all traces of the ___. I believe no one will notice." Li Wen smiled complacently in his heart. "Besides, this time, you won't be acting alone. There is another force in Royal City that wants to kill him."
