Li Chengfeng's words made the rich young master realise that he had been played. His face turned green, his eyes spitting fire as he glared at Li Chengfeng. Li Chengfeng ignored him, smiling cheekily at him. Qiu Liansheng, however, could not bring himself to smile. He whispered into Li Chengfeng's ear, "Brother, this looks like the young master of the Zhan family of the northwest."
Li Chengfeng was stunned. Qiu Liansheng whispered, "Look at the pouch hanging from his waist. It's a purple goldfish pouch with seven golden edges!
Only a count was qualified to wear it!
Look at the cloth he's wearing, it's the best silk from the northwest. Look at the servant behind him, there's a yellow sand insignia sewn on his sleeves. That's the Champion Marquis Junzhong's insignia! "
Li Chengfeng shuddered. Although he was the infamous Devil Incarnate, he was not an idiot who could not differentiate between right and wrong. In the martial world, you can be arrogant, you can be savage, but you must know who you can offend and who you can't.
In Cheng 'an, the Prefecture Chief, Zhang Junheng, was someone you could never offend. However, Li Chengfeng had offended Zhang Junheng. That was Li Chengfeng's bad luck. If he had a choice, Li Chengfeng would never offend Zhang Junheng.
Who would offend a local magistrate if they had nothing better to do?
Similarly, the Zhan family was someone Li Chengfeng would never offend.
Although the Zhan family was thousands of miles away, they were so powerful that even a three-year-old in Daqi knew this nursery rhyme: Daqi, rule the land.
With the Imperial Tutor, the world is at peace.
The Five Lakes are at peace, the Four Directions are at peace.
The Southern Soaring Sea, the Northern Spirit Mountain, the Eastern Phoenix Tree, the Central Yinyang Mountain.
In terms of dominance, the Northwest King!
In Daqi, as long as this person was sane, he would not offend the Northwest King, the Zhan family.
Li Chengfeng's mind raced as he tried to think of a way to deal with the situation. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a zither from upstairs. The clear voice from before rang again. "It is a great honor that both of you are willing to come to my house. It's just that I miss my poor sister Zhixi today, so I'm not in the mood to serve both of you. I hope both of you can understand. If you come again in the future, I will definitely clean my bed and welcome both of you, is that alright?"
The Fourth Young Master of the Zhan Family narrowed his eyes, a mouthful of resentment stuck in his throat. The middle-aged servant beside him whispered, "Fourth Young Master …"
The Fourth Young Master of the Zhan Clan turned around and glared at him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I am being humiliated like this, you are just going to watch?"
The middle-aged servant said in a low voice, "After all, he did not really offend the Zhan Family.
Before we left, Eldest Young Master warned us that we should stay low-key and cautious when we're thousands of miles away from home. "
The Fourth Young Master gritted his teeth and glared at Li Chengfeng. "Let's go!"
Li Chengfeng heaved a sigh of relief. The Fourth Young Master of the Zhan family was about to leave with his two servants when someone barged in, shouting, "Young Master, Young Master!"
It was Zhao Xiaobao.
The Fourth Young Master of the Zhan family was stunned. He followed Xiaobao's line of sight and saw Li Chengfeng. His eyes darted around, and while Xiaobao was still trying to catch up, he took a step forward, blocking Xiaobao's path. This time, Xiaobao bumped right into the Zhan family's young master.
The Zhan Young Master was sent flying like a piece of paper, sliding across the floor. Everyone was speechless, even Xiaobao was at a loss for words. 'Am I that strong?
I can knock someone so far away? '
Li Chengfeng's heart skipped a beat as he watched the Zhan Young Master crawl to his feet. His smile was filled with malevolence and murderous intent.
The Zhan Young Master's two middle-aged servants looked at each other, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
This Fourth Young Master had been looking for trouble along the way, but … he was just too good at it!
Young Master Zhan got up and charged towards Xiaobao angrily. He grabbed Xiaobao and raised his hand to hit him. Just as he raised his hand, someone caught it. He turned to see Li Chengfeng smiling at him.
Li Chengfeng let go of the Zhan Young Master's hand. "Xiaobao has offended you, I apologize on his behalf. Please have mercy!"
The Zhan Young Master grinned. "Do you know who I am?"
Li Chengfeng, who rarely lowered his head, lowered his head now. He whispered, "Yes, I am the Northwest King, Young Master of the Zhan family!"
"Then do you know the Zhan family's iron law?"
Li Chengfeng's expression froze. "You haven't asked?"
The Zhan Young Master's face twisted. "Those who offend the Zhan family will pay with blood!"
Xiaobao was extremely quick-witted. He immediately realized that the young master was in trouble!
This was someone his Young Master could not afford to offend!
Xiaobao frantically said, "Young Master, I apologise to you. I was in a hurry and did not look where I was going, that's why I bumped into you!"
The Zhan Young Master grabbed Xiaobao's neck and grinned. "If you can't see where you're going, what's the use of these eyes?"
As he spoke, he flicked his wrist and his fingers were like swords, aiming for Xiaobao's eyeballs. Xiaobao shrieked in shock. He was a cowardly person, only risking his life when Li Chengfeng and Madam Xie were in danger. Whenever something happened to him, he would become as timid as a mouse. Although he had learned martial arts from the Li family since he was young, he could not even unleash ten percent of it.
Li Chengfeng quickly pulled Xiaobao away and yelled, "No matter how big the world is, it's not bigger than reason!
How can you ask for someone's eyes just because you bumped into him?! "
The middle-aged servant behind the Zhan Young Master could not help but step forward. "Fourth Young Master …"
The Zhan Young Master turned and glared at him. "Are you blind?
He bumped into me and you're taking his side?
Are you even a member of the Zhan Family?! "
The middle-aged servant was speechless, and he could only sigh inwardly and retreat.
"You want to be reasonable?
Fine, I'll be reasonable with you! "
The Zhan Young Master laughed coldly. He lifted the corner of his shirt to reveal the belt around his waist. Everyone gasped when they saw it. A Duke's Golden Belt?
The Zhan Young Master smirked. "I was born a Duke. How dare a lowly commoner like you offend me? According to Daqi's laws, how should you be punished?"
Li Chengfeng's expression was cold, not saying a word. Xiaobao was trembling, holding back his tears as he walked out from behind Li Chengfeng. "Young Master, I'm fine. Don't worry about me, Xiaobao won't drag you down."
The Zhan Young Master smirked. "Good, very good!" With that, he hooked two fingers towards Xiaobao's eye sockets.
Xiaobao screamed, closing his eyes in fear. After a while, when he saw that the Zhan Young Master's fingers did not pierce his eye sockets, he trembled and opened his eyes.
Xiaobao saw Li Chengfeng standing in front of him, one hand grabbing the Zhan Young Master's wrist.
The Zhan Young Master's wrist was grabbed again. He roared, "Let go!
If you don't let go, I'll chop your hand off! "
