After Jingfeng fought against Li Siyuan over there, he had a rough idea of his strength, in the early stage of Tongliu realm.
He deliberately pretended to be weak and only used 70% of his strength to make the opponent mistakenly think that he was at the peak of Baihui Realm. However, if you think about it, you know that Jingfeng's physical body is so strong that he would not panic at all in a head-on confrontation.
Unexpectedly, in addition to Li Siyuan, Long Shengna was also deceived. She really thought that the other party was ruthless.
"Li Siyuan! What do you mean?"
Long Shengna raised her eyebrows and shouted angrily.
"Hey, I'm just testing Mr. Jing to see if he's worthy of you."
"Whether he deserves anything to do with you or not, you still hurt him!"
Long Shengna was obviously really angry and spoke without any mercy.
The smile on Li Siyuan's face gradually solidified. He was extremely small-minded. Even if Long Shengna scolded him like this, he would still be angry.
He glanced at Jingfeng and Long Shengna fiercely, forced a smile and said, "Nana, I'm doing this for your own good. Why can't you recognize me?"
"Master Li, I can't bear your kindness."
Long Shengna didn't want to have anything to do with him, but there was nothing she could do about Li Siyuan.
"Come here! Take Mr. Jing to the back hall to rest!"
After saying that, she glanced at Li Siyuan angrily, turned around and left.
When Bi Hao and Ji Funing saw Long Shengna leaving, they slowly came over.
"Master Li, she is a woman, and she will be in your hands sooner or later!"
"Yes, don't be like her. It will be bad for your health if you get angry."
Li Siyuan looked at the direction Long Shengna was leaving with a pitiful look, and sneered: "Bitch, I wanted to play with you."
"As for that scenery, it's not as powerful as you say. It's just a peak cultivation level in the Tongliu realm, so it's not worth mentioning."
"I heard from the boy at the Chamber of Commerce that the body of the thug you hired yesterday was found this morning in an alley a few miles away."
Bi Hao asked tentatively.
"I already know about this."
"Did that Jingfeng do it?"
"Just him? He doesn't have the strength yet. As for who it is, I will arrange for someone to investigate clearly."
Long Shengna helped Jingfeng walk to the backyard, followed by several maids, all with cold expressions. Unexpectedly, Jingfeng suddenly stopped and pushed her hand away.
"Jingfeng?" Long Shengna was surprised.
Jingfeng wiped the blood on his face with his hands, and then said calmly: "I'm fine."
"Is everything okay? You've been beaten like this!" Long Shengna's pretty face flushed anxiously, "You guys take him to the backyard to rest quickly. The medicine is also ready."
Jingfeng's heart warmed up and he silently said, "It's really okay. I was just pretending."
"Pretending?" Long Shengna's eyes widened.
"Yes, even though Li Siyuan was vicious, he still wanted to test me. I deliberately acted like I was invincible so that he could relax his vigilance against me."
As he spoke, Jingfeng changed his dejection and became energetic and energetic.
Long Shengna and the maids were all stunned. Is this really an act?
"You're killing me!" Long Shengna's eyes felt a little hot. She buried her head on Jingfeng's shoulder and hit Jingfeng's back with her pink fist.
Jingfeng saw several maids on the side lowering their heads and snickering. He felt a little embarrassed and quickly said a few words of relief.
At this time, Long Shengna also noticed that she was a little out of sorts and that there were still people here, so she hurried away from Jingfeng and sent the maids away.
"Is it really okay?"
"Really, with his little cultivation, hitting me is like scratching an itch."
"Just blow it!"
"When have I ever lied to you?" Jingfeng said teasingly.
"Hmph! Have you lied to me enough?"
"Liar!" Long Shengna glared, stepped on Jingfeng's foot, and then walked away angrily.
Jingfeng smiled helplessly, calmed down his mind, and knew it was time to get down to business.
After that, Jingfeng forged himself a high-grade spirit-injection weapon that looked like a broad knife. The spirit-infusion slot was embedded in the handle of the knife, and the blade shone with cold light and was sharp.
In the afternoon, I practiced in an elegant hall of the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce, and by the way practiced the "Shadow Sword Technique" seized from Meng Bei.
Jingfeng read it through, understood the secrets, and practiced Qi comparison exercises.
"Use your body to control the sword, use your Qi to control your body, make the sword as sharp as evil, and the sword as fierce as evil. When you practice it to great perfection, your surname will be like the shadow of evil."
Jingfeng circulated his true energy in place, and the cyclone in his body was running wildly. He concentrated on guiding the true energy to circulate throughout his body, trying to mobilize his body.
The true energy was transmitted from the hand to the blade, and the spirit-infused weapon trembled slightly.
Just when Jingfeng was about to continue training, someone knocked on the door.
Jingfeng thought it was Long Shengna, but when he opened the door, he saw a maid.
"Mr. Jing, the head of the Long family invites you to meet on the third floor of the hall because we have something to discuss."
Jingfeng thought to himself and had to stop practicing, nodded and said: "Okay, please lead the way."
"Please come with me."
After a while, Jingfeng was taken to a meeting hall in the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce Building, where a middle-aged man with a tall back was standing by the window.
"Master Long, Mr. Jing is here." The maid said respectfully.
"I've met Master Long."
The middle-aged man turned around, smiled at Jingfeng and said, "Okay, please come inside."
The middle-aged man has a tall figure and majestic features. He is Long Shengna's father, Long Yecheng. He asked Jingfeng to sit down and said to the maid: "Pour some tea."
"yes."
Jingfeng also learned something about the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce in the past few days, so he asked: "Master Long, I wonder what you have to do with this junior?"
Long Yecheng sat opposite Jingfeng and said, "You are Nana's friend. You can just call me uncle in private. There is no need to stick to etiquette."
Seeing Jingfeng nodding, Long Yecheng continued: "Last time, I was busy with affairs, and I didn't have time to talk to you. You guys came from Yimu Town together. You must know about transporting Zhu Huai, right?"
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."
Long Yecheng was silent for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Long would like to thank Mr. Jing for bringing his daughter back safely. You have been kind to our Long family. If you need any reward, just ask."
Jingfeng felt that Long Shengna's father was quite polite last time, so he smiled and said, "Uncle Long has an affair. Since Long Shengna is my friend, her affairs are my business. I just did my duty." How can we talk about remuneration for this matter?"
Long Yecheng was stunned for a moment, and his serious expression became more relaxed.
"It's my fault to speculate on your relationship, but it's not easy for me to interfere with your young people's affairs."
Jingfeng was confused when he heard this.
At this time, the maid brought tea and water to the table and poured a cup for Jingfeng and Long Yecheng respectively.
Long Yecheng winked at the maid, and the maid immediately understood, exited the room, and closed the door.
"Uncle Long, please forgive me. I don't quite understand what you mean."
Long Yecheng glanced at Jingfeng and said, "If you and Nana are interested in each other, I won't stop you. After all...well, my uncle is also here."
"ah?"
"I've also heard about what happened this morning. Li Siyuan is bold enough to dare to take action on the territory of our Qianlong Chamber of Commerce. Besides, you are Nana's friend."
Long Yecheng's face turned cold, then he raised his head and asked, "By the way, are you okay?"
"Thank you for your concern, uncle. This junior is fine."
"That's good."
Long Yecheng took a sip of tea and spoke slowly: "Li Siyuan is the son of City Lord Li. He is interested in Nana. He proposed marriage to me a while ago, but I know that this person has a vicious heart, and Nana doesn't like him either. I really can’t agree to this marriage.”
"Didn't uncle refuse directly?"
Long Ye Cheng sighed, "To tell you the truth, not only my Long family is in charge of the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce, but the other two are the Bi family and the Ji family."
"Those two families have been coveting my Long family's property for a long time. Not only did they unite to deal with me, but the Li family in Beikai City secretly added fuel to the flames. They wanted to evade the real power of my Long family and put us to death!"
"Because of this, I didn't decisively reject the Li family's proposal of marriage. I have been delaying it until now. Our Long family is accumulating strength and having a backup plan. We have not broken our skin with them for the time being."
Jingfeng was shocked. He didn't expect the situation behind the scenes of the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce to be so serious, but he still said comfortingly: "Uncle, don't be impatient. There will be a road to the mountain. There will be a way to deal with this matter."
Long Yecheng closed his eyes and nodded slightly.
"There are some things that I can't say clearly in Nana's presence. Today I am talking to you alone, but I am willing to tell you from my heart."
"The Qianlong Chamber of Commerce has been based in Beikai City for decades. It was founded by Nana's great-grandfather. At that time, he still had two servants. Out of trust, he gave some of the rights of the Chamber of Commerce to those two servants. , that is, the ancestors of the current Bi family and Ji family, it is a pity that people's hearts are not as good as before."
Long Yecheng sighed, lamenting this past event. Jingfeng listened quietly without interrupting.
"My surname is not Long. When I was young, I fell in love with Nana's mother, married into the Long family, and changed my name. Later, Nana's mother was in poor health and passed away early, and I, an outsider, became the mainstay of the entire Long family. He is also Nana’s only relative.”
"You also know what happened later. The power and reputation of the Long family was gradually divided by the other two families. However, Nana was always unwilling to compromise and worked hard to revitalize the Long family. For this reason, she was often plotted by those old people."
Jingfeng was silent. He had heard a few words from Long Shengna, but he didn't expect that there were so many hidden things.
"I have been secretly observing you these past few days, including discussing this with you today. The main reason is that I, Mr. Long, think that you, a junior, are worthy of my trust. If you are sincere to Nana, take her away and leave Beikai. Cheng, don’t get involved in this family dispute.”
Jingfeng's eyes were as wide as bells, uncle, can you tell me this?
"Uncle, I..."
Seeing that Jingfeng was hesitant to speak, Long Yecheng said, "Don't worry, don't worry about the money. I will arrange it."
"No, uncle, have you ever considered how Long Shengna would feel if you did this?"
"This..." Long Yecheng sighed again, "Even if she has nothing to do with me now, in the future, she will be able to understand the painstaking efforts of being a father."
"Boy, you have to become stronger as soon as possible. Although the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce is strong on the surface, it has many enemies secretly. I may not be able to take good care of every aspect. You have to protect Nana."
This was the only thing Jingfeng happily agreed to, "Uncle, don't worry, I will do my best to protect her."
"I'll send someone to send you some Kung Fu pills later, which will be good for your practice."
Jingfeng felt moved in his heart, but he really couldn't agree to other things at will.
"By the way, last time when you were escorting Zhu Huai's cubs back to Beikai City, a true disciple of the Beast Taming Sect died. Now the elders from other sects have come to visit. You may want to stay away from the limelight for a while."
Jingfeng remained silent, but suddenly an idea came to his mind.
