Chapter 176

"Because he provoked me."

Li Fei's words were like a hard stone, just like that, crashing into the room.

Because the "Beast King" had provoked him, now was the best time to make a move against the "Beast King"!

The meaning in this sentence was very, very firm.

"Young Master Qing has great spirit!"

Feng Sanniang didn't mock Li Fei for being arrogant, but instead praised him, sounding very sincere.

"I know that words alone are not proof, and talking big is meaningless, so the cooperation I'm here to discuss this time is very simple; you don't need to do anything next, I just need you to take action at the right time."

Li Fei said calmly.

What is the right time?

Li Fei didn't say, and Feng Sanniang didn't ask, because if the time really came, everyone would actually have their own judgment.

"Is that it?"

Feng Sanniang asked.

If it were only this, Li Fei actually wouldn't have needed to make this trip specially.

If he could really create a suitable opportunity, he wouldn't need to say much at all, and the other major factions would also take action.

"Since it's cooperation, I need Sanniang to put up some chips first."

"What chips?"

"Help me connect with exotic beast feed sellers outside of Datong Prefecture."

Li Fei stated his request.

"Heh."

Feng Sanniang smiled.

She had guessed from the beginning that Li Fei had come for this, and had already thought about what price Li Fei would have to pay for her to help.

As a result, Li Fei first proposed to solve Yu Longqing, and after going in a circle, proposed this request; this was a bit like getting something for nothing.

Yet Feng Sanniang was still somewhat moved by him.

She found that she had still underestimated this Green-Faced Ghost.

The collected information stated that this was a person who hated evil as much as a deadly enemy and liked to use violence to solve problems.

But now it seemed that the other party really wasn't that simple.

"If I don't build a bridge for you, do you not intend to solve Yu Longqing?"

Feng Sanniang asked.

"Before I came, did you think I would take action against Yu Longqing?"

Li Fei asked back.

Actually, choosing to bow his head was the most reasonable thing to do, so he was telling Feng Sanniang that if she didn't help, he might not take action against Yu Longqing, and Feng Sanniang would lose an opportunity to take back her lifeline.

"Interesting."

Feng Sanniang smiled.

Afterward, the figure behind the screen stood up and slowly walked out from behind the screen.

A beauty wearing a red long dress, with long hair draped over her shoulders and her fragrant shoulders half-exposed, came into Li Fei's view.

The other party was naturally extremely beautiful, but it wasn't an exaggeration to say she was stunning enough to topple a country.

What truly made one's heart flutter was the charm on Feng Sanniang.

Every move was charming to the bone, natural and unrestrained, making people unknowingly indulge in it.

Li Fei specially took a look at the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl in his body and found that the blood souls were indeed decreasing, but the value of the decrease was very small.

This showed that Feng Sanniang indeed possessed extraordinary abilities in the mental aspect of actual combat, and it wasn't a direct damage type.

"Young Master Qing."

Feng Sanniang walked toward Li Fei gracefully and finally sat on the wooden chair beside him, with a wooden table between the two.

A faint fragrance rushed into his nose, refreshing his heart and spleen.

"Actually, you chose to deal with Yu Longqing, besides for the exotic beast feed, a large part of the reason is for the Zhang family, right?"

Feng Sanniang looked into Li Fei's eyes and suddenly said:

"At this time, only by throwing out a more tempting bone can you divert the attention of those vicious wolves who intend to continue eating meat. Moreover, if the 'Beast King' falls, the Zhang family will have a chance to get new chips and have a chance to protect themselves in the future. So even if I don't pay this chip, you won't give up on dealing with Yu Longqing."

Formidable!

Li Fei thought to himself; this "Queen" had been socially adept for so many years, and her ability to ponder people's hearts could be described as pure and perfect.

The other party had indeed guessed his thoughts, but he still looked at the other party calmly:

"Shangguan Xiao is just my ally; the Zhang family can be the reason for my actions, but I won't take too big a risk for the Zhang family."

"Is that so?"

Feng Sanniang looked directly at Li Fei, as if she wanted to see through him.

A moment later, she revealed a charming smile:

"Alright, the chips Young Master Qing wants, I'll give them, not for anything else, just because of you, Young Master Qing."

She agreed!

She agreed to let Li Fei get the opportunity to connect with exotic beast feed sellers outside of Datong Prefecture by getting something for nothing.

After speaking, she gave Li Fei a look filled with affection.

Combined with her own charm and the extraordinary ability she was secretly using, even a steel-straight man with firm willpower would probably be unable to help but feel a little moved.

Fortunately, Li Fei had the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl.

"Alright, happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation."

"..."

A moment later, Li Fei got up and left the room.

After a while, a beautiful woman walked to Feng Sanniang's side and whispered:

"Sanniang, just received news that every family has sent manpower to Fenghua Street; it looks like they intend to deal with the Green-Faced Ghost!"

"Got it."

Feng Sanniang didn't feel surprised at all upon hearing this and said faintly.

The subordinate asked suspiciously: "But didn't you agree to cooperate with him?"

Feng Sanniang smiled: "Not just anyone is qualified to discuss cooperation with me."

The subordinate understood.

The Green-Faced Ghost needed to prove his strength first!

"Perhaps this is also what he wants."

Feng Sanniang looked toward the doorway and muttered.

On a street adjacent to Fenghua Street, just one street away, the lights were bright and the singing and dancing were noisy. But here, the lights were dim, not a single storefront on the street was open, and not a single pedestrian could be seen.

Actually, a few minutes ago, this street was still very lively, but because a group of people holding knives and guns came, the pedestrians quickly dispersed, and one shop after another quickly closed.

In pleasure quarters like Fenghua Street, all kinds of jealousy and fighting were absolutely unavoidable, and they emerged one after another.

But no matter how arrogant the disciples were, no matter how big the background of the figures was, in the past, no one had ever really fought here, because this was the territory of the "Queen" Feng Sanniang.

She had the strength, and she also had enough face.

So the pedestrians and merchants on the street, after seeing these people holding knives and guns, immediately knew that something big might happen here tonight!

"Sanniang, the 'Poison King's' Seven Underworld Guards are here."

"More than a dozen special-grade gunmen under the 'Cannon King' have arrived."

"The 'Gambling King' sent Lou Yujun."

In the room, subordinates kept coming in to report the situation outside to Feng Sanniang.

The "Poison King's" Seven Underworld Guards were seven martial artists who practiced strength.

Moreover, these seven people cooperated tacitly and practiced a battle formation specially used for joint attacks; the seven people joining forces were enough to rival the Dao Foundation realm!

The special-grade gunmen under the "Cannon King" were a group of martial artists who specialized in practicing guns.

Actually, in terms of attack power, even the attack power of a pistol was stronger than some of the strongest means of martial artists, so there were some martial artists in this world who gave up practicing martial arts and specialized in practicing marksmanship.

The implants they chose were also mainly to enhance reaction speed and sensing ability, which allowed them to better exert the power of firearms.

The special-grade gunmen under the "Cannon King" were such martial artists; they were all expert marksmen, and as long as they were given enough distance, they had the possibility of killing martial artists, or even martial artists who practiced strength!

More than a dozen special-grade gunmen, if they fired cold shots from the periphery, were still very threatening.

And the "Gambling King" only sent Lou Yujun alone.

This was a Dao Foundation realm powerhouse!

So sending one person was enough.

Of the seven major factions of the "Seven Kings," except for the sealed Mount Tiefeng Sect, three had already arrived.

The "Queen" Feng Sanniang herself wouldn't send people to deal with the Green-Faced Ghost, so two major factions remained.

"Where are the Beast King's people?"

Feng Sanniang asked.

The "Beast King" previously had a grudge against the Green-Faced Ghost and had swallowed the other party's goods, so it was impossible not to send people this time.

It was even highly likely that this killing game tonight was led and organized by the "Beast King" Yu Longqing.

Soon, a subordinate rushed over and gave her the answer:

"Sanniang, Zhang Shan is here!"

Zhang Shan, the strongest combat power under the "Beast King," had practiced the high-level strength Dark Flame Fierce Dragon Strength.

Back then, he went to Xingcheng alone, but was captured, and in the end, he was sent back as a condition for the deal.

Now Yu Longqing had sent him out again.

Feng Sanniang nodded: "That is two Dao Foundation realm, seven martial artists who practice strength, and more than a dozen special-grade gunmen; there might be assassins lurking in the dark to launch sneak attacks."

The "Seven Kings" of the Datong Prefecture Jianghu were respectively:

The "Blade King" who controlled the Mount Tiefeng Sect and the Martial Arts Hall Association.

The "Queen" who managed the pleasure quarters.

The "Gambling King" who managed all the casinos.

The "Poison King" who managed the opium business.

The "Cannon King" who managed arms smuggling.

The "Beast King" who monopolized the exotic beast feed business.

The last one was the "Shadow King," who controlled the strongest assassin organization in Datong Prefecture and even the entire Feng Province!

The "Shadow King" was the most mysterious one among the "Seven Kings," and no one knew his real name and appearance. Although he mainly operated the assassin business, he would also take over some other industries, so he was also one of the factions dividing up the Zhang family's assets this time.

In this killing game tonight, it was possible that the "Shadow King" had sent assassins, but they hadn't appeared yet and hadn't been discovered.

This was also very consistent with the identity of an assassin.

"Where are the people from the Qingyuan City Management Company?"

Feng Sanniang asked.

She knew that the Green-Faced Ghost had secretly arranged for his subordinates to enter the city a few days ago and had people watching them all along.

"The people we are watching have no movement."

The subordinate reported.

"What about Shangguan Xiao's side?"

Feng Sanniang asked again.

"She has been in the guesthouse and hasn't come out."

"What about the Zhang family's people?"

"No movement either."

"Hmm?"

Feng Sanniang frowned, somewhat puzzled:

"Does he still have power in his hands that I haven't noticed?"

The Green-Faced Ghost appeared publicly tonight to find her, so he must have been prepared to be surrounded and killed; otherwise, it would be too stupid.

A fool wasn't qualified to cooperate with her, and from the previous conversation, she didn't think the Green-Faced Ghost was a fool.

Thinking of this, she suddenly stood up and walked out of the room.

Soon, she went up to the rooftop terrace of this dance hall and looked down at the street below.

She found the Green-Faced Ghost in the crowd, and the other party was walking step by step toward the outside of Fenghua Street.

And outside Fenghua Street, figures were rapidly converging in the direction the Green-Faced Ghost was moving.

"Sanniang, no one else has been found to come and meet the Green-Faced Ghost yet."

A subordinate came to report.

"What exactly are you relying on?"

Feng Sanniang looked at the Green-Faced Ghost's back, her eyes puzzled.

On the street, Li Fei held a sheathed Ghost-Slaying Blade and walked forward step by step.

Because he had revealed his blade, the surrounding crowd all dodged away.

This allowed him to walk from the beginning of the street to the end very smoothly.

More than ten meters ahead was another street, the lights were dim, and it was full of murderous intent!

One street apart, it was like two separated worlds.

Actually, Li Fei knew he would encounter such a situation before he came.

He had just completed that battle as Li Fei during the day, forcibly extending the Zhang family's life.

Under these circumstances, the Green-Faced Ghost suddenly appeared publicly to see the "Queen," and no matter what the result of the conversation was, the remaining major factions would definitely choose to take action.

Otherwise, were they supposed to wait for the situation to be reversed step by step?

Blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing someone's parents; both are great enmities. The Green-Faced Ghost was now going to block the path to wealth for several major factions, so what awaited him was this killing game tonight!

Feng Sanniang was very curious about what Li Fei was relying on.

She would see the answer soon.

Li Fei looked at the long street ahead, a smile appearing on his face under the mask.

Tap, tap, tap.

The surrounding lights began to dim, and the lively crowd was moving away.

The Green-Faced Ghost stepped into the darkness.

Requesting monthly tickets.
