Chapter 205: Do You Want Revenge?

Jiangnan Wang heard Si Jiannan's proposal, his brows slightly furrowed as he fell into contemplation.

Si Jiannan stood beside him, holding his breath, silently awaiting his decision.

After a moment, Jiangnan Wang slowly shook his head.

"Not possible."

"That person is my trump card, reserved for dealing with those Grandmasters in Kyoto; we'll need him to sit in command. A fellow like Jiang Feng isn't even worthy to be sent out, lest I waste my favor and earn a Reputation for making a mountain out of a molehill."

In his view, even if Jiang Feng's strength were greater, he'd at most be a troublesome stumbling block, unqualified to wield my deepest hidden power.

That is the trump card for whether he can ascend to the Great Treasure!

To use it on Jiang Feng? Too wasteful.

Si Jiannan instantly felt a bitter, unspeakable sorrow.

He had just personally experienced Jiang Feng's terror, that invisible Binding Force, far stranger and more domineering than he imagined; even without being a Grandmaster, it's hardly any less.

But Prince clearly underestimated Jiang Feng's strength, and he could not say it outright.

After all, he had served Jiangnan Wang for so many years, knowing the Prince's temperament too well.

If he were to contradict directly, he might anger him.

"Yes, Prince."

Si Jiannan could only bow and answer, swallowing the words that reached his Mouth.

Jiangnan Wang pondered for a moment, his gaze sharpening.

"First, assign a few capable hands, keep a tight watch on Jiang Feng's every move; once you detect any change, immediately report to me."

"Understood, subordinate!"

Si Jiannan quickly nodded.

He was about to turn and leave when Jiangnan Wang, as if recalling something, called out to him.

"Wait."

"Prince, any other orders?"

Si Jiannan halted his Foot, bowed, and asked.

"Last Time you auctioned those Bone‑Tempering Pills at Yitian Pavilion, the effect was good, but the quantity was still too low; we have so many Private Army… so you must find a way to contact Yitian Pavilion and be sure to locate the one who refines the Bone‑Tempering Pills."

Si Jiannan, hearing that, showed a hesitant expression.

"Prince, Yitian Pavilion protects the alchemist's information extremely tightly; when the Bone‑Tempering Pills were auctioned, they wouldn't even reveal a fraction of the alchemist's name. To uncover the identity, it may not be easy."

"Even if it's not easy, you must investigate!"

Jiangnan Wang waved his hand, saying nonchalantly.

"Jiangnan has never had such a powerful Alchemical Master; a sudden emergence like this, even if Yitian Pavilion tries to hide him, may not succeed. Send more men, start from Yitian Pavilion's channels, auction records, and contacts; at any cost, bring this Alchemical Master to serve us!"

"Yes, I will do my utmost!"

Si Jiannan dared not refuse further, bowed, and only then turned and left the study.

……

Meanwhile, Jishi Hall.

Jiang Feng carried a brocade box containing Hundred-year Ginseng, and as soon as he entered, three Hua Jing Laos surrounded him.

"Jiang Feng, you're back! All right?"

Su Xueyan spoke first, her eyes full of nervousness.

He rushed straight to Jiangnan Wangfu demanding an explanation; this is exactly the kind of thing Jiang Feng could pull off.

Huo Siyong also stepped forward, being rather carefree.

"Master, how is Jiangnan Wangfu? Have you dealt with Sikong Tu? And Jiangnan Wang, he hasn't made things difficult for you, right?"

Jiang Feng Laughter.

"Rest assured, what could I possibly have? Everything is resolved."

He walked to the counter, opened the brocade box, revealing the entirely Metal‑yellow Hundred-year Ginseng inside.

"Wow! Such a strong Medicine fragrance! This Ginseng is even better than the previous one!"

Huo Siyong's eyes widened, unable to hold back amazement.

Hua Jing Lao was so excited his hands trembled, cautiously reaching out, wanting to touch yet not daring.

"This… this is Premium Centennial Ginseng! More plump than my previous one, its vital essence abundant!"

Jiang Feng pushed the brocade box before Hua Jing Lao, saying with Laughter.

"Hua Lao, accept this Ginseng as compensation from me. The previous one was ruined, I caused you trouble."

"Not allowed, not allowed!"

Hua Jing Lao quickly waved his hand, his face full of embarrassment.

"Jiang Feng, this is unacceptable! This Ginseng is too valuable, worth more than my previous one! The earlier incident isn't your fault; it was those two scoundrels Wang Kun and Sikong Tu causing trouble, how could you be made to compensate such a precious item?"

"Hua Lao, just accept it."

Jiang Feng persisted, a hint of playfulness on his Face.

"Besides, this Ginseng was compensated by Sikong Tu; I didn't spend any money."

Hua Jing Lao hesitated for a long while, looking at the Premium Centennial Ginseng before him.

He had been a doctor all his life; to be honest, only these premium Medicine herbs could truly keep him rooted.

In the end, the old man nodded.

"Then… then I won't be polite! Jiang Feng, thank you! I've recorded this favor!"

He carefully put the brocade box away, as if cradling a priceless treasure, cherishing it immensely.

Jiang Feng Laughter.

"Hua Lao, I have another matter to trouble you with. That broken Ginseng from before, could you give it to me?"

"No problem!"

"This Ginseng, though broken, has lost a lot of its essence, but it still has some use; if you can make use of it, take it."

Jiang Feng didn't hesitate, took the broken Ginseng and headed to the Backyard.

He also told Hua Lao and Su Xueyan that there was nothing special and they shouldn't go to the Backyard looking for him.

But just as Jiang Feng reached the Backyard gate, a slender figure darted over at speed—it was Ling Zhaixing.

She ran to Jiang Feng's side with anxiety on her face, panting as she asked.

"Jiang Feng! I just heard Yingying say that you went to the Jiangnan Wangfu just now—was it true?"

Jiang Feng nodded.

At those words, Ling Zhaixing's face filled with murderous intent.

"Why didn't you ask me to go together! Did you see the Jiangnan Wang?"

The Sect was annihilated; such overwhelming hatred is the only thing keeping Ling Zhaixing alive now.

She hadn't originally intended to place these matters on Jiang Feng.

But now Jiang Feng has come to kill at the door, yet didn't bring her—how thoughtless.

Hearing that, Jiang Feng could only laugh and cry helplessly.

"I'm not going there to trouble the Jiangnan Wang, and besides… the Jiangnan Wangfu has so many people; if you really went, would you truly intend to wipe out the Jiangnan Wangfu?"

Jiang Feng had no doubt; if he truly brought Ling Zhaixing to the door, the Jiangnan Wang would surely die today.

By then, the entire Jiangnan sky would change.

Seeing Ling Zhaixing's murderous aura barely concealed, Jiang Feng knew he had struck her sore spot.

"Don't worry, although we didn't deal with the Jiangnan Wang this time, it did lead me to discover something."

"What is it?"

Ling Zhaixing couldn't help but ask curiously.

Jiang Feng gave no answer, only a faint smile.

"Putting that aside for now, do you want to take a small revenge on the Jiangnan Wang?"

"Revenge?"

Ling Zhaixing's eyes lit up at the words!
