Li Chengfeng had no choice but to agree to Huangfu Song's request. They agreed to hold a reception at Huangfu Song's place in District B in the evening. Huangfu Song went to prepare while Ji Chunhua and the rest went to dress up for the night's showdown. Li Chengfeng then rushed to Zhang Jinbao's place.
On the other side, Zhang Jinbao had received Li Chengfeng's instructions and was secretly guessing what kind of person his good brother's enemy was. Just as he was thinking, the teleportation platform flashed and a person appeared. It was Zhan Qisheng.
Zhang Jinbao looked at him. He had a cold expression, his brows were high and the corners of his mouth were drooping. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were fierce. Zhang Jinbao slapped his thigh. This must be the one!
His face was practically written with the word 'bad guy' on it!
With Li Chengfeng's words, Zhang Jinbao had long planned to latch onto the Zhan family's thick thighs. He immediately greeted him with a smile. "Is this the new Junior Brother?"
Zhan Qisheng looked him up and down warily. "Who are you?"
Zhang Jinbao smiled. "I'm Zhang Jinbao, your Senior Brother."
Zhan Qisheng's eyes flashed with disdain. "You call yourself a cultivator with your looks?
Or a Senior Brother? "
Zhang Jinbao was furious. My brother was right, this person is despicable!
Zhang Jinbao had already planned to mess with Zhan Qisheng to please Li Chengfeng. Now that things did not work out, he made up his mind and smiled. "I haven't asked for your name, Junior Brother?"
Zhan Qisheng huffed. "Zhan Qisheng!"
Zhang Jinbao thought to himself, 'How shameless, how dare he pretend to be my brother!
Fortunately, my brother warned me, or else I would have been fooled by him!
Zhang Jinbao smiled. "Are you the Young Master of the Zhan family?"
Zhan Qisheng looked up slightly, his expression arrogant. "Why aren't you leading the way if you know?"
Zhang Jinbao cursed in his heart. 'How dare an imposter be so arrogant?
Hmph, I'll teach you a lesson later! '
Zhang Jinbao smiled as he led the way while Zhan Qisheng walked behind him with his hands behind his back, studying their surroundings.
Zhang Jinbao led Zhan Qisheng to a secluded area. He pointed at the pavilion hidden in the dense forest and smiled. "This is where Junior Brother lives. You can go ahead."
Zhan Qisheng studied his surroundings and saw a wide passageway that extended towards the temple. The passageway was surrounded by stone pillars and ancient trees. The dense foliage of the towering trees almost enveloped the place into a world of its own. He nodded to himself. The scenery of the Spiritual Mountain Sect is indeed different from the Zhan family of the northwest. It's interesting.
Zhan Qisheng did not suspect anything and walked towards the palace in the forest. Zhang Jinbao did not follow, his eyes gleaming with a hint of mockery as he thought to himself, one step, two steps, three steps, four steps, five steps … twenty steps, hit!
Zhan Qisheng walked to the middle of the passageway. Suddenly, the ground shook and a deafening old man's voice rang out. "How dare you! Who dares trespass the forbidden area!"
Zhan Qisheng's expression changed. Just as he was about to move, his surroundings darkened. He looked up to see a gigantic Treant swinging its palm at him!
Zhan Qisheng was so shocked that he couldn't react in time. He thought he was dead for sure, but when he opened his eyes, he realized he was trapped in a cage of twigs. His body was stuck and he couldn't move.
Zhang Jinbao laughed heartily. "That's what you get for being arrogant!
Just stay in there and wait! "
Zhan Qisheng did not expect to be set up as soon as he entered Hidden Brocade Court. He grabbed the tree trunk and pulled hard, roaring, "Do you know who I am?!
I am the fourth son of the Zhan Family, Zhan Qisheng!
Let me out, or I'll destroy your entire family! "
Zhang Jinbao patted his chest and said with a face full of fear, "Exterminate my entire family?
Aiya, so scary!
Doesn't that mean I can't let you out? "
Zhan Qisheng was furious. "Release me!
Or I'll kill your entire family! "
Zhang Jinbao said, "Tsk, my brother was right. You've got guts to impersonate someone from the Zhan family!"
Zhan Qisheng raged, "I'm the son of the Zhan family!
How can I be an impersonator?! "
Zhang Jinbao dug his ear. "How can you prove that?"
Zhan Qisheng instinctively reached for the purple goldfish pouch hanging at his waist but found nothing. His expression changed as he thought back to the brief contact he had with Li Chengfeng. He immediately realised what was going on.
"So?
You can't prove it, right? "
Zhang Jinbao sneered and said, "Senior Brother, I won't make things difficult for you. This array will lose its effect after seven days. I advise you not to struggle pointlessly. The more you struggle, the tighter it will be. If you know any spells, then don't use them. This is a forbidden place. All spells will be sucked away and used on you." Zhang Jinbao sneered.
Zhan Qisheng suppressed his anger. "Let me out, I'll prove to you that I'm the son of the Zhan family!
The one who impersonated me was the fake one! "
"Oh, so you know how to play the blame game?"
Zhang Jinbao did not like Zhan Qisheng at all and sneered. "You think you're the son of the Zhan family?
Ptui, you're an embarrassment to the Zhan family! "
Zhan Qisheng raged, shaking the vine cage with all his might. "I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!"
As he shook, the cage shrunk instantly. Zhan Qisheng did not even have the space to shake. He did not dare to move anymore, pressing his head against the trunk of the cage, glaring at Zhang Jinbao. "When I get out, I'll skin you alive and pull out your tendons. I'll make you regret being born into this world!" Zhang Jinbao was furious.
Zhang Jinbao scoffed. "How cliché!
Say something else! "
Zhan Qisheng did not speak, only glaring at Zhang Jinbao viciously. His gaze was so piercing that Zhang Jinbao could not help but shudder. Unwilling to stay any longer, he turned to leave.
He had just returned to the transportation cliff when he bumped into Li Chengfeng. Before Li Chengfeng could speak, Zhang Jinbao said proudly, "Aiya, Junior Brother Zhan, I've done what you asked me to do!"
Li Chengfeng was taken aback. "Huh?
You've done it? "As if remembering something, he asked carefully," You met … my enemy? "
Zhang Jinbao said gleefully, "I knew he wasn't a good person. I lured him to the forbidden area and he's being locked up now."
Li Chengfeng jumped. "Huh?
Forbidden area? "
Zhang Jinbao laughed, "Yeah, that's one of the three forbidden areas of the Hidden Sword Court. Anyone who trespasses twenty steps will be imprisoned for seven days, anyone who trespasses fifty steps will be expelled from the school, and anyone who trespasses a hundred steps will be destroyed in both body and soul!
Putting him in jail for seven days is a small punishment! "
Li Chengfeng was overjoyed. Looks like we've passed this stage!
But only seven days?
It'd be best if he was locked up for seven years!
Wait, he's locked up?
Li Chengfeng asked tentatively, "But what if he wants revenge after he's released?"
Zhang Jinbao smiled. "The Spiritual Mountain Sect forbids private duels. If he challenges you to a duel, you can just find an excuse to reject, it's not embarrassing.
Plus, we have so many seniors helping you, you're not afraid of him. "
"But you can only be a thief for a thousand days, not a thief for a thousand days.
Why don't we just … "Li Chengfeng gestured a knife with his hand.
