Chapter 310: He Is a Hero

~7 min read 1,329 words

Lin Feng did not even glance at Luo Sitong, but turned to Xu Lao and said, "Old man, now you know I wasn't lying to you, right? The Sun Family is nothing to me; these so-called wealthy and powerful families are complete bullshit in my eyes."

Xu Lao was so shocked that his scalp went numb, his face filled with an expression of utter disbelief.

"You... young man, who exactly are you?" Xu Lao asked in shock, his voice trembling slightly.

Lin Feng said, "Who I am is not important; what is important is that Sun Shaowen and the others will pay the price."

Afterwards, Lin Feng took an anonymous bank card from his pocket and shoved it into Xu Lao's hand.

"This is?" Xu Lao asked in confusion.

"There are two million in this card; from now on, it is yours," Lin Feng said.

Xu Lao waved his hands repeatedly, trying to shove the anonymous bank card back into Lin Feng's hand, while saying urgently, "No, no, I cannot accept a reward for no merit; how could I take your money..."

"Who says you haven't performed a service? Your contribution is quite significant."

Lin Feng smiled and said earnestly, "Xu Lao, I said that people will not forget your contributions. Giving you these two million now is my way of rewarding you. Keep it."

"But..."

Xu Lao wanted to say something more, but Lin Feng interrupted him without ceremony: "There are not that many 'buts'. Take it since I gave it to you."

Xu Lao had no choice but to finally stuff the anonymous bank card into his pocket.

Xu Lao was so moved that his eyes filled with tears, and he was somewhat choked up.

Lin Feng then turned to look at Luo Sitong and said, "Send two Divine Dragon Guards to escort Xu Lao. If anything happens to him, I will hold you accountable!"

How could Luo Sitong dare not to comply?

He immediately dispatched two Divine Dragon Guards to escort Xu Lao away.

After Xu Lao left, Luo Sitong asked cautiously, "Mr. Lin, who exactly is that old man? Why did you..."

"He is a hero," Lin Feng said.

"A hero?" Luo Sitong looked blank.

Lin Feng said no more and strode forward.

Luo Sitong hurried to catch up and asked, "Mr. Lin, where are you going?"

"To find a place to stay, of course," Lin Feng said.

"Then come with me; I have already arranged a place for you to stay..."

Luo Sitong had not finished speaking when he saw Lin Feng wave his hand, so he hurriedly shut his mouth.

Lin Feng was not familiar with Luo Sitong, and Luo Sitong was being overly enthusiastic.

Furthermore, since the Sun Family Head of the Family, Sun Feilong, had just shouted that he and Luo Sitong had a friendship spanning over a decade, Lin Feng did not have a good impression of Luo Sitong right now.

Given this, how could he feel at ease with a place arranged by Luo Sitong?

"I will just find a hotel to stay in myself; there is no need for you to trouble yourself, General Captain Luo," Lin Feng said.

The expression on Luo Sitong's face was one of helplessness; he knew that Lin Feng's decision was a sign of distrust, but he had no good solution at the moment.

After hesitating for a moment, Luo Sitong finally bit the bullet and said, "Mr. Lin, let me be honest. I do have a deep friendship with the Sun Family Head of the Family. I have served as the General Captain of the Dragon Soul Branch in Binhai City for over a decade, and the Sun Family is one of the three top wealthy families in Binhai City. It is not strange that I have dealings with Sun Feilong."

"But rest assured, I will absolutely not bring personal feelings into my work. I will handle Sun Feilong, Sun Feihu, and Sun Shaowen exactly as they should be handled; I will absolutely not show favoritism!"

Lin Feng smiled, turned his head to look at Luo Sitong, and asked, "Then tell me, how should Sun Feilong, Sun Feihu, and Sun Shaowen be handled?"

Luo Sitong said awkwardly, "This... doesn't that still depend on your wishes, Mr. Lin? How about this: you tell me how to handle it, and I will handle it that way. I will absolutely have no objections!"

"Then what if I told you to execute all those people from the Sun Family?" Lin Feng asked.

Luo Sitong's expression changed drastically.

Gritting his teeth and taking a deep breath, Luo Sitong said firmly and forcefully, "Mr. Lin, you are the Dragon Soul War King. Sun Shaowen was disrespectful to you on the high-speed train and even attacked you. To put it broadly, this is indeed enough to warrant a death sentence, and I can execute him."

"But Sun Feihu and Sun Feilong do not deserve death; they can at most be considered accomplices. Executing them directly would not be in accordance with the law."

Lin Feng said meaningfully, "Look, you just said that you would handle it however I told you to, but now you are not listening to a word I say."

"I... I can't help it, Mr. Lin. I can't just go around breaking the law, can I?" Luo Sitong said, feeling very aggrieved, like a young bride who had just married into a family and was being made difficult by her in-laws.

Lin Feng chuckled and waved his hand, saying, "I was just joking with you. Sun Shaowen is arrogant and bullies the weak, and Sun Feihu acts as an accomplice; they certainly make me very unhappy, but I am not about to take their dog lives over such a small matter."

"Then what do you mean?" Luo Sitong asked tentatively, feeling relieved.

"Lock them up for a while first; consider it a lesson for them," Lin Feng said.

Luo Sitong nodded and agreed immediately.

Compared to being executed by firing squad, being detained for a period of time was a very light punishment, and he certainly would not ask for more.

Suddenly, he saw a very luxurious hotel ahead, and in front of the hotel was a very impressive plaque with the three large characters "Furenju" on it.

Seeing Lin Feng eyeing this luxurious hotel, Luo Sitong immediately introduced it: "Mr. Lin, this hotel is the famous luxury hotel in our Binhai City, Furenju. I have stayed here a few times and felt it was quite good; the service in all aspects of the hotel is very attentive. If you are interested, Mr. Lin, you can stay at this hotel, and it is not far from our Dragon Soul Branch building."

"That works," Lin Feng nodded.

Thus, Lin Feng checked into a luxury suite at the Furenju Hotel and stayed there.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Lin Feng asked when he saw Luo Sitong still standing there.

Luo Sitong said with a bitter smile, "Mr. Lin, about the matter of the Hidden Demon Sect's secret base..."

"The secret base is right there; it won't grow legs and run away. I have only just arrived in Binhai City, so let me get some rest. I will come to the Dragon Soul Branch to find you tomorrow. You go ahead," Lin Feng said.

"Very well, I will wait for you at the Dragon Soul Branch," Luo Sitong said respectfully, bowed, and finally left.

But Lin Feng did not rest immediately.

After all, it was just past noon, and it was still a long way from evening.

Lin Feng tidied up the room, then left the hotel to go to various large pharmacies in Binhai City to purchase medicinal herbs.

According to the intelligence revealed by the Demon Tiger, the special incense used to contact the Elder required over a dozen types of medicinal herbs to concoct, and while these herbs were not rare, they were all very expensive.
