He hurriedly said, “Master Li, Miss Bai, both of you please be a.s.sured. I found out that you’re entering the city today from the clan leader from the Leng family. Leng family wanted to take action against Master Li so he asked me to help bribe the city guards to capture you! But he was instead lectured by me! For a genius like Master Li to be offended, how could you not exact revenge for it?”
Saying that, Feng Bozhong changed the topic.
“But, Leng family’s people have apparently not given up. Perhaps they might find other ways to deal with Master Li. But Master Li please be a.s.sured, we the Feng family definitely can deter the other top ten clans! As long as Master Li is willing to join us, we can help to settle the Leng family’s trouble!”
He said this with an impressive style.
But actually, the meaning in his words had a threatening effect in it.
What he meant was actually to hint Li Moying that he was already being forced into a corner. If he wanted to avoid Leng family from exacting revenge, then the only way was to join Feng family otherwise Feng family would not bother about this matter!
This move was well executed and if they really didn’t know the current situation which Sky Emperor City was in, they might really have fallen for his lies!
Huang Yueli didn’t know if she should laugh or cry but she finally understood that it was Cui Yuan Shan who had sold Li Moying’s matters out.
Seeing her own fiancé already showing an apparent impatient look, she hurriedly opened her mouth, “Clan Leader Feng, we…..”
Suddenly while she was still speaking, she was interrupted by someone.
“Old man Feng, you’re a reputable clan leader and instead of staying at home, why have you run out to the city gates so early in the morning. Just what are you trying to do?”
Following that a burst of laughs echoed as a silhouette appeared at the entrance of Sky Emperor City.
The person was dressed in a navy blue long robe, looking around forty plus years of age and there were two blades of moustache on top of his lips, bearing the temperament of a scholar.
But the Profound Energy fluctuations coming from him clearly told them that he was a genuine ninth stage realm eight level pract.i.tioner!
In terms of cultivation, he was above Feng Bozhong’s!
The minute he appeared, the surrounding pract.i.tioners couldn’t help but started to gasp in exasperation again.
“That’s… Cheng Zhenbo! Vice President of Soaring Heavens Merchant Guild’s Cheng Zhenbo! He is a famous character in Sky Emperor City’s sky chart! Usually it’s practically impossible to see him, why had he appeared right here today?”
“So he’s Cheng Zhenbo! I heard that other than the few who are in ninth stage realm peak, he’s the next in line whose most powerful, Not only that, he has the huge backing of Soaring Heavens Merchant Guild and has easy access to Profound Weapons and medicinal pills! In terms of battle power, he’s absolutely top rated!”
“I’d not expected that we would be able to see this legendary character today. What… is he here for?”
Everyone had a puzzled look on their faces.
Or perhaps, they already had a faint guess in their hearts but they weren’t willing to believe that such a thing could happen!
When Feng Bozhong saw Cheng Zhenbo appearing, his expression changed and it immediately turned extremely anxious and uptight.
“President Cheng, these words of yours sound strange. I can be anywhere that I want to so why can’t I be right here at the city gates? How about you, haven’t I heard a few days ago that you’re going into closed door cultivation at home and not going to meet anyone? Why have you suddenly appeared right here? Could it be that you’ve already come out of closed door cultivation so quickly?”
Feng Zhongbo’s enmity was extremely obvious.
Cheng Zhenbo saw that but merely cracked open his lips a little as he replied in ridicule, “Clan Leader Feng’s question is so interesting. I’m here for the same motive that you have as well!”
