Mu Lihua couldn't believe that Wu Feiyang, who had seemed so powerful moments ago, was now trembling with fear and kneeling before Cheng Xiaofan upon recognizing him.
It was no wonder Cheng Xiaofan had been so unconcerned in front of Wu Feiyang.
The reason was his incredible, almost unfathomable strength; hardly anyone could control him, and even bullets flying at him would stop in fright.
"Wow!"
"My Xiao Fan Ge is too amazing!"
At this moment, Mu Lihua's eyes sparkled as she looked at Cheng Xiaofan.
"Wu Feiyang, what atonement do you owe me?" Cheng Xiaofan pulled over a rosewood chair and sat down opposite Wu Feiyang with a swagger, asking.
Wu Feiyang mumbled, "Mr. Cheng, my first offense is my failure as a parent; I shouldn't have bullied your girlfriend."
"My second offense is that I should never have threatened you with a gun."
Cheng Xiaofan let out a cold laugh and said, word by word, "Wu Feiyang, it seems things are not as simple as you make them out to be."
Wu Feiyang replied, "Mr. Cheng, I don't understand what you mean!"
Cheng Xiaofan said, "Among the people you brought, there were seven rogue cultivators. As the head of the Jianghu Affairs Bureau, you used rogue cultivators to avenge your son?"
"You brought people here this time with the intention of eliminating me, didn't you?"
Wu Feiyang shook his hands in fear and quickly said, "Mr. Cheng, this is a misunderstanding. I had no idea you were here!"
"If I had known you were here, I wouldn't have said a word even if you beat my son to death!"
"Dad, I'm your son!"
Wu Feng shouted angrily, "How can you say such a thing?"
"With your influence in Gangzhou, are you still worried you can't deal with this brat?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Feiyang immediately roared at his son, "Brat, shut your mouth, do you believe I'll have someone knock out all your teeth?"
He was truly furious. Things had come to this point, and this idiot was still stirring up trouble!
Unexpectedly!
Wu Feng, though cowardly, had a sharp tongue.
He yelled at his father, "What? I'm your only son, and this is how you treat me? Fine, have someone knock out my teeth!"
"I'll see if you can actually do it!"
"Hahaha, Wu Feiyang, your son is challenging you!"
At this moment, Cheng Xiaofan transformed into an amused spectator, "Now it's up to you, can you control your son!"
Hearing this, Wu Feiyang felt utterly miserable.
"Do you have to egg him on like this?"
"This is clearly telling me to have my son's teeth knocked out!"
"It's all because this brat was blind and offended the girlfriend of this celestial being."
"Zhao Cheng, go up there and knock this brat's teeth out!" Wu Feiyang roared at someone lying on the ground.
At this juncture, Wu Feiyang had no choice but to lay hands on his own son.
If it weren't for his son causing trouble, none of this would have happened!
Wu Feiyang hoped that his son's teeth would be enough to quell this storm.
The person named Zhao Cheng, having heard Wu Feiyang's command, didn't dare to delay. He got up from the ground, grabbed a stool leg, and lunged at Wu Feng, swinging at his mouth.
"Ah—"
Wu Feng never expected his father to actually do it. With a world-shattering scream, he spat out a mouthful of bloody teeth.
He immediately fainted.
"Haha, that was exhilarating!" Cheng Xiaofan applauded enthusiastically, unconcerned.
Wu Feiyang said with a fawning smile, "Mr. Cheng, as long as you're happy!"
Cheng Xiaofan immediately wagged his index finger and said with a smile, "Wu Feiyang, I'm afraid if I'm happy, when news of your actions reaches my teacher at headquarters, he might not be happy."
"Over the years, you have used the evil arts of rogue cultivators to extort and seize property in the Gangzhou area, taken people's wives and daughters, and committed countless evil deeds. Your crimes are too numerous to recount!"
"Am I exaggerating even a little?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Feiyang's face turned pale.
"Could it be that this brat and his girlfriend suddenly appearing in Gangzhou is a secret visit ordered by the headquarters of the Jianghu Affairs Bureau?"
He then thought otherwise.
"I have always been discreet in my actions; they wouldn't be easily exposed."
"Furthermore, if headquarters had any suspicions about me, they would surely send the nearest Jianghu Affairs Bureau from Western Province to investigate, not send Cheng Xiaofan."
He quickly said, "Mr. Cheng, you've been misled. You must have heard some rumors. I wouldn't dare to act recklessly, even if given the courage."
"The reason I took in a few rogue cultivators was to fight fire with fire, specifically to deal with the lawless individuals in the martial world!"
Cheng Xiaofan's expression darkened and he said, "Wu Feiyang, to my knowledge, you have two secret underground rooms in your house. One contains five young women imprisoned inside."
"And in another secret room, there's a large amount of Chinese currency, and a ton of gold alone!"
"Please tell me, are these all rumors?"
"You..." Wu Feiyang was instantly speechless.
How did this brat know about such secret matters?
Besides himself, no one else knew.
This brat was too sinister.
"Impossible!"
"He must be guessing wildly!"
"Mr. Cheng..."
Wu Feiyang desperately tried to clear his name, "You can't just say such things!"
"If headquarters finds out, I, Wu Feiyang, will face severe punishment!"
"How could I possibly imprison young women in my own home? And I'm just a minor official in the Gangzhou branch; where would I get so much gold?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled slightly and said, "Wu Feiyang, don't be modest in front of me. Whether you've imprisoned five young women or not, a search will tell. Wouldn't it?"
At this moment!
Wu Feiyang was utterly terrified!
"Am I being modest?"
"Mr. Cheng, tell me, what exactly do you want?" Wu Feiyang was so anxious that his clothes were drenched in sweat.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and asked, "What do you think I want?"
Wu Feiyang suddenly remembered some related posts he had seen on the Jianghu forum. Cheng Xiaofan was a typical greedy person.
Some Jianghu cultivators had gone to Nan Shan Lake in Zhuxi Village to fish, and he had sold earthworms there, charging millions for a single earthworm.
His eyes lit up, and he said, "Mr. Cheng, can we speak in private?"
Cheng Xiaofan immediately shook his head and said, "Whatever you have to say, say it here. I've always been forthright and dislike any clandestine dealings."
Wu Feiyang immediately got up from the ground, moved close to Cheng Xiaofan's ear, and whispered, "Mr. Cheng, name your price. How much money do you want? As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you!"
Cheng Xiaofan heard this and burst into laughter, exclaiming loudly, "Wu Feiyang, you want me to name a price? How much money do I want? As long as you can do it, you will satisfy me?"
"Mr. Cheng, you, you, you..." Wu Feiyang was so anxious that his face was about to peel off.
"Why isn't this person playing by the rules?"
"I'm whispering to you, and you insist on speaking loudly in front of everyone."
He said with a crestfallen face, "Mr. Cheng, what will it take for you to let me go?"
