Chapter 214: Down and Out

"Go attend to your business," Lin Feng said.

After Cheng Shishi left, Lin Wei pointed at the long table and said, "Brother, since we haven't had dinner yet, how about we go over and eat something?"

"Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating, you little glutton."

Lin Feng laughed and scolded, but despite his words, he still took Lin Wei's delicate hand and walked with long strides toward the long table.

But they had only walked halfway when a girl's voice came from afar, drawing closer.

"Mr. Lin, you really did come to attend this banquet."

Lin Feng and Lin Wei turned their heads together and saw Bai Yuhui walking over from a distance with long strides.

Today, Bai Yuhui was dressed in a white evening gown, looking like a pure white orchid, but she was not alone; following beside her was a young man who looked very arrogant—who else could it be but Dong Mingle!

And the moment Dong Mingle saw Lin Feng, the arrogance on his face vanished without a trace, and he even cast a look of reverence toward Lin Feng.

Once they reached them, Dong Mingle said excitedly, "Mr. Lin, we meet again; this is fate!"

Lin Feng felt both amused and annoyed.

This Dong Mingle had been taught a lesson by him, yet he didn't hold a grudge at all?

Could it be that his brain had been squeezed by a door?

"I wondered who it was; so it's the Young Master of the Dong Family," Lin Feng said.

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare; how would I dare to call myself a young master in front of Mr. Lin," Dong Mingle said hurriedly.

"Last time at that antique shop, weren't you 'this young master' this and 'this young master' that?" Lin Feng said teasingly.

Dong Mingle was extremely embarrassed and said quickly, "That was because I didn't know you at the time, Mr. Lin. If I had known you were so formidable, I certainly wouldn't have dared to be presumptuous in front of you."

Bai Yuhui then said, "Mr. Lin, thank you for your help last time. If it weren't for you, my grandfather would have been in big trouble."

"No need for formalities," Lin Feng said indifferently.

Dong Mingle immediately asked, "Xiaohui, what did Mr. Lin help your grandfather with?"

Bai Yuhui then said, "City Head Ke's old illness recurred, and he sought my grandfather for treatment, but even my grandfather was at his wit's end. At the critical moment, Mr. Lin stepped forward and cured City Head Ke's illness."

"What? Mr. Lin is actually proficient in medical arts, and even better than your grandfather? Your grandfather is the Medical Immortal of our Jinling!" Dong Mingle was extremely shocked.

"Mr. Lin's medical skills are indeed peerless," Bai Yuhui said.

Lin Feng waved his hand and said, "Don't butter me up. My medical skills are not peerless; at the very least, there are two people whose medical skills are better than mine."

"Who?" Bai Yuhui was curious to the extreme and asked hurriedly.

"I cannot speak of one of them, but the other is our Dragon Kingdom Saint Hand, the Divine Doctor Ling Xue," Lin Feng said.

The one he could not speak of was naturally his master's wife; this concerned Lin Feng's own secrets, so he naturally would not tell others casually.

A look of realization appeared on Bai Yuhui's face, and she smiled: "That is true, the Dragon Kingdom Saint Hand is indeed very formidable. My grandfather once competed with her in medical skills, and the result..."

"What was the result?" Dong Mingle asked.

"My grandfather was so discouraged that he almost never recovered," Bai Yuhui said, a playful smile curling at the corner of her mouth.

Lin Wei looked longingly at the delicacies on the long table, her mouth almost watering.

Lin Feng then said, "Let's stop chatting. I'll take my sister to eat something first, and we'll talk later."

Leaving these words behind, Lin Feng pulled Lin Wei and walked with long strides toward the long table.

Upon reaching the long table, Lin Feng picked up a clean, white plate and helped Lin Wei pick out some delicacies.

Lin Wei pointed at whatever she wanted and Lin Feng picked it up; before long, it had piled into a small mountain on the plate.

"Eat up, I'll get you more when you're finished," Lin Feng said.

"Then I won't be polite!"

After saying that, Lin Wei took the plate from Lin Feng's hand and began to taste it quickly.

Watching Lin Wei bury her head and eat frantically, Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh.

Yet he didn't expect that at this moment, another woman's voice would come: "Lin Feng, you also came to attend the Head of the Zhou Family's birthday banquet?"

Lin Feng turned his head and saw that the person walking over was none other than Han Yu!

After not seeing her for a few days, Han Yu seemed much more dejected, completely lacking that sharp spirit she had before.

It seemed that the Demon Shadow sacrificing the entire Han Family had been a heavy blow to Han Yu.

"I didn't expect you to come too. Your Han Family has gone through such a major event, and you actually still have the mood to run here to attend a banquet?" Lin Feng said.

Hearing this, the expression on Han Yu's face immediately became very ugly.

The rather unfamiliar young man following beside Han Yu immediately frowned and said, "You are Lin Feng, the one who has been going against my senior sister time and time again?"

"Who are you?" Lin Feng asked in return.

Han Yu said, "He is my junior brother, Sun Shaohu. He speaks quite bluntly, so I hope Mr. Lin will not take offense."

As soon as Han Yu finished speaking, Sun Shaohu said with an annoyed look, "Senior sister, why are you being so polite to this guy? He is not our friend!"

"Although he is not a friend, he is not an enemy either. The Han Family is gone, and my younger brother is dead. Since that is the case, let's write off the past grievances. Furthermore, he even saved my life," Han Yu sighed and said.

Sun Shaohu had a look of frustration on his face: "Senior sister, how can you be so cowardly!"

Lin Feng frowned slightly and said, "If you want to make a move against me, you can do it directly; there is no need to incite your senior sister."

"Since you've put it that way, fine, I will now vent some anger for my senior sister!"

As soon as Sun Shaohu finished speaking, he walked with long strides to Lin Feng's front, raised his right hand, and grabbed toward Lin Feng's shoulder.

Sun Shaohu's speed was very fast, his hand leaving a series of afterimages in the air; if Lin Feng were an ordinary person, he certainly wouldn't have had time to react.

But was he an ordinary person?

The answer was naturally negative!

Lin Feng let out a light hum, raised his left hand, and blocked Sun Shaohu's strike with a slight movement.

Sun Shaohu's other hand immediately reached toward Lin Feng's chest in a stealthy manner, and his palm contained a trace of True Qi.

But this time, Lin Feng didn't even dodge, directly taking Sun Shaohu's strike head-on with his chest.

Bang!

With a dull thud, Sun Shaohu staggered backward, his face turning deathly pale.

"Martial King Initial Stage? I didn't expect you to be even more formidable than your senior sister, but even so, what does it matter? A Martial King is nothing at all in front of me," Lin Feng said indifferently.

Sun Shaohu's expression shifted repeatedly, and he wanted to strike again, but Han Yu had already said coldly, "Enough, Shaohu, stop! How things are between Lin Feng and me is a matter between us; there is no need for you to interfere!"

"Senior sister, I don't want you to be bullied for nothing," Sun Shaohu said.

"Mr. Lin has not bullied me; as for the conflict between the Han Family and Mr. Lin, it is actually the Han Family that was in the wrong first... Shaohu, you don't need to say anything more. If you still cannot restrain yourself, then we shall leave now; it is fine to skip this banquet tonight," Han Yu said coldly.
