Chapter 356: Li Lang II

~8 min read 1,483 words

Having been played by someone, a surge of anger burned in Cheng Feng's heart, wanting to be vented.

His tightly clenched fists trembled slightly, and a glimmer of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.

"Li Lang, you cannot escape." Cheng Feng muttered to himself, his voice revealing determination and resolution.

The night was deep, the bright moon hung high, stretching Cheng Feng's shadow long.

He quickly replayed every detail of his previous clash with Li Lang in his mind, attempting to find the other party's flaw.

Yet Li Lang seemed to have planned it long ago; every step was calculated perfectly, catching Cheng Feng off guard.

"Hmph, don't think you can make me give up just like this." Cheng Feng let out a cold snort, took long strides, and chased in the direction Li Lang had fled.

The trees on both sides of the street swayed gently in the night wind, as if cheering on this silent contest.

Passing through several narrow alleys, Cheng Feng arrived directly at the Black Ear rendezvous point.

The night was like ink, and at this moment, the Black Ear rendezvous point had dim lights, yet it could not mask the raging fire in Cheng Feng's heart.

He stood in the night, like a cold statue, his whole body exuding unquestionable majesty.

"Leng Feng, investigate Li Lang's whereabouts with all your might; I want to know his news at the first possible moment."

Cheng Feng's voice was low and powerful, every word seeming to be squeezed out from between his teeth, revealing his deep anger toward Li Lang.

Since debuting several years ago, Cheng Feng had always been cautious, treading on thin ice, only then achieving today's accomplishments.

Who would have thought he would capsize in the hands of an unknown person like Li Lang.

Hearing this, Leng Feng was about to open his mouth to ask for details, but seeing Cheng Feng's face, cold as frost, he immediately understood the severity of the situation.

Thus, he clasped his fists without hesitation and said: "Understood, Sect Master, rest assured, we have long been prepared. I will immediately mobilize all forces to ensure we find Li Lang's trail in the shortest time possible."

Cheng Feng nodded slightly, his gaze like a torch, as if it could pierce through the night and look directly at Li Lang's hiding place.

This meeting with Li Lang not only concerned personal interests but also involved the potential of the entire Hong Sect.

Therefore, he absolutely could not have the slightest slack or carelessness.

So he had deployed many eyes and ears around the agreed-upon location beforehand.

Cheng Feng himself could fight and run, but the members of Black Ear did not have that many experts.

Being eyes and ears was enough.

"Remember, this person Li Lang is cunning and treacherous; you must act carefully and not alert the enemy." Cheng Feng urged again, his tone revealing his trust and expectation for Leng Feng.

Leng Feng took the order and left, his figure quickly disappearing into the night.

Cheng Feng stood in place, his gaze still looking firmly into the distance.

Time passed second by second, and Cheng Feng's mood was unusually calm.

He paced back and forth at the rendezvous point, waiting for Leng Feng's news.

By the way, he was also recalling Li Lang's various actions.

Suddenly, Cheng Feng thought of a possibility.

"Someone is fishing?"

Seeming to have thought of a key point, Cheng Feng laughed freely.

"Interesting, the Red Lotus Sect is right before my eyes, and at this critical juncture, they are still fishing.

This Silver Body Technique is really a good thing!"

After a long wait, Leng Feng hurried over with good news.

He ran to Cheng Feng panting, and reported with a grave expression: "Sect Master, we have found Li Lang's trail.

He is currently hiding in an abandoned warehouse in East City, seemingly conspiring about something with some people."

Hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Cheng Feng's eyes. He immediately realized that his guess was correct.

Thus, he ordered without hesitation: "Gather the men immediately, we will set out at once, and must capture Li Lang and his accomplices in one fell swoop."

Leng Feng said with some difficulty: "Are we going to fight head-on?"

Cheng Feng laughed: "You all still act as eyes and ears; for the battle, I alone am enough."

Leng Feng took the order. In the night, Leng Feng led a capable team, moving silently toward the abandoned warehouse in East City.

Cheng Feng followed closely behind, the Mechanical Dog in his ring ready at any time.

In the sky, the Sun-class ship also hovered silently in the air.

It is worth mentioning that a rope was hanging under the vehicle, suspending a large iron block.

At a high altitude of a thousand meters, like an inconspicuous little bird,

it hovered without a sound.

Inside the warehouse, under the dim light, Li Lang and his accomplices sat in a circle, whispering and conspiring about their plan.

"I have confirmed that this Hong Sect really has the Bronze Statue Technique taken away by that traitor.

As long as we bring it before the Master, it will definitely be a great merit."

There was a bit of excitement in Li Lang's voice, as if he had already seen the day of his own success.

However, a thin-faced tall man had some doubts.

He frowned and asked: "Even Brother Li couldn't take down the other party?

Wouldn't those Hong Sect people be very difficult to deal with?"

Hearing this, Li Lang's face sank slightly, and he scratched his head with some embarrassment.

He really hadn't expected that the seemingly ordinary Hong Sect disciple would have such skills, causing him, an expert with some fame in this area, to suffer a loss.

"Hmph, that kid was just relying on a higher cultivation realm. If not for this Bronze Statue Technique, he would not be my match at all."

Li Lang said, pretending to be calm, trying to regain some face.

Seeing this, the thin-faced tall man did not pursue the question further, only nodding to indicate he understood Li Lang's meaning.

Mixing in this area, strength is what matters most.

As long as they have sufficient strength, they can obtain everything they desire.

"Then what should we do now? Should we go directly to find the people from the Hong Sect?"

The thin-faced tall man asked, greed flickering in his eyes.

Li Lang shook his head, pondered for a moment, and then said, "No, we cannot go directly to find the people from the Hong Sect.

That would be too risky; if they have made preparations, we would very likely fall into a predicament.

We need a more secure plan."

"A more secure plan? Brother Li, do you have any ideas?" the thin-faced tall man asked curiously.

Li Lang smiled slightly, a glint of cunning flashing in his eyes. He leaned close to the thin-faced tall man and whispered, "The Hong Sect can have experts at Bone Refining Perfection, so they are likely not to be trifled with.

If we spread the news about the Bronze Statue Technique and the Silver Body Technique, someone will surely go and cause trouble for them."

Upon hearing this, a flash of surprise appeared in the thin-faced tall man's eyes.

He had not expected Li Lang to have such a cunning plan.

He immediately expressed his agreement and urged Li Lang to implement it as soon as possible.

However, just as they were conspiring, a faint sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the warehouse.

Li Lang, the thin-faced tall man, and the others immediately became alert; they drew their Swords one after another, preparing to deal with any possible sudden situation.

The warehouse door was kicked open violently, and a gust of cold wind surged in, instantly making the atmosphere inside the entire warehouse tense and oppressive.

A youth dressed in black strode in; his gaze was as cold as a blade, as if he could see through everything.

And beside him, a metal monster resembling a dog stood silently, emitting a faint cold light that made people shudder.

Seeing this scene, Li Lang widened his eyes in terror: "It's you?"

His words carried a touch of disbelief, as if he could not accept this fact.

He had not discovered any traces of being followed along this journey!!

Cheng Feng curled his lips into a cold sneer and looked at Li Lang with eyes like torches: "What, we just met, and you don't recognize an old friend? Or is it that you have a guilty conscience and are afraid to face me??"

Li Lang's expression changed; he knew that he had fallen into a desperate situation at this moment.

He did not want to submit just like that, so he shouted loudly: "The opponent is only one person, kill!"
