Ling Feng's words fell, and the surroundings immediately erupted!
"Kid! What did you say?"
"Bastard, how dare you insult us, aren't you looking for death?"
"Hmph, surnamed Ling, Madam Jiang is an elder. Today, I'll indulge a presumptuous junior like you for a few moments, but we won't tolerate your shamelessness. If you dare to speak wildly again, we'll make sure you bleed on the spot!"
Ling Feng completely ignored the shouting and scolding around him, as if these people weren't even worthy of speaking to him.
Seeing this, Madam Jiang, seated above, revealed a cold smile.
This brat Ling Feng was too arrogant and had now incurred the wrath of the crowd.
Under such pressure, he would surely die even without the Jiang family's intervention.
After this incident, the long-dormant Jiang family would undoubtedly regain its fame!
But before the Jiang family could prepare to watch the show with folded arms.
"Noisy!"
A fierce roar suddenly sounded.
Immediately after, Yang Fei, standing behind Ling Feng, stepped forward with a cold expression!
Boom!
The ground beneath Yang Fei's feet exploded, revealing a circular pit about a meter in diameter. The floor cracked outwards continuously!
"Hiss!"
Everyone present couldn't help but gasp, their mouths snapping shut.
Those seated in chairs almost jumped up, retreating repeatedly.
The cracks on the ground, in their eyes, seemed to transform into venomous snakes ready to bite, making them fearful of not being able to dodge in time!
"Such terrifying destructive power, could this person be a Martial Dao Grandmaster?"
"Impossible! When did Hanjiang ever have a Martial Dao Grandmaster? If there were, how could we not know?"
"Could it be... this person is a general-level powerhouse from the war zone?"
"He's from the war zone, that's right! That's the only explanation! Otherwise, why would Martial Dao Grandmasters from other nearby areas come to cause trouble at the Jiang family?"
Exclamations continued to rise, with everyone speculating about Yang Fei's identity and origin!
The faces of the Jiang family members turned uglier by the second!
Such a formidable martial expert might be difficult to deal with!
Madam Jiang's mouth twitched with anger. She never imagined that Ling Feng would have such a powerful person by his side.
"No wonder, no wonder you brat dared to be so arrogant! So you have someone backing you up!"
The old lady's voice became hoarse. Her ferocious expression made her look even more like an old witch, yet it also instilled a terrifying deterrence in everyone.
Before the crowd could ponder further, they saw Madam Jiang smiling sinisterly at Yang Fei.
"Heh heh, I don't care which war zone you general comes from. You'd better look around at the descendants of the famous families in our Hanjiang. How many of them have generals with meritorious service in the war zone in their families!"
With that, Madam Jiang directly named Tang Ru.
"Like Miss Tang Ru here, her eldest uncle is Tang Long, the Deputy Commander of our Hanjiang War Zone, a person of high authority! As long as Miss Tang Ru calls her uncle Tang Long, with the name of our Jiang family, Commander Tang can easily crush you!"
As Madam Jiang's words fell, all eyes turned to Tang Ru.
Even Yang Fei couldn't help but glance back at Tang Ru, but Yang Fei gave her a smile.
Tang Ru didn't have time to look at Yang Fei's silly grinning face. Being stared at by so many people, she felt like she was sitting on pins and needles and instinctively stood up.
Seeing this, everyone immediately assumed Tang Ru was showing support for the Jiang family!
Madam Jiang chuckled even more, looking at Yang Fei with even more contempt.
A general?
In front of my Jiang family, it's nothing!
But just as everyone thought the Jiang family had subdued this mysterious general, Ling Feng's unhurried voice emerged.
"Oh? Is that so? Then let her call Tang Long. I'd like to see if Tang Long dares to come!"
Whoosh!
Ling Feng's words caused a stir.
Everyone felt that Ling Feng was too arrogant.
He didn't even take the Deputy Commander of the Hanjiang War Zone, Tang Long, seriously. Did he really think he was something just because he had a general backing him?
Simply courting death!
Madam Jiang was also provoked to the point where her teeth itched by Ling Feng's words.
In her embarrassment and rage, she tapped her cane again and said to Tang Ru below, "Girl Tang Ru, call your uncle! This old woman wants to personally invite Commander Tang over for a drink!"
All eyes turned back to Tang Ru.
Tang Ru's pretty face flushed red. She hated this guy Ling Feng to death.
At this moment, forcing her uncle to come out was deliberately trying to embarrass her uncle and the Tang family!
But upon further thought, it was all instigated by Madam Jiang, making her hate the Jiang family even more.
Tang Ru gritted her teeth and replied to Madam Jiang, "Madam, forget it! My uncle cannot handle this person!"
What?
Everyone's eyes widened, and they even dared to dig their ears, disbelieving what they heard.
Could it be that they had too much earwax and misheard?
Tang Ru actually said that the dignified Deputy Commander of the Hanjiang War Zone couldn't handle Ling Feng?
How was that possible?
Madam Jiang was stunned. After standing there blankly for a full three seconds, as the exclamations around her rang out, she finally came to her senses.
"This is impossible! Girl Tang Ru, you won't make the call, right? Fine! This old woman will call myself!"
As Madam Jiang finished speaking, Jiang Yafeng beside her had already dialed Tang Long's number and deliberately turned on the speakerphone mode!
Ring, ring, ring...
After a full six seconds, Tang Long on the other end finally answered the call.
"Hello, is this Commander Tang?"
Madam Jiang said this with a smile. Facing such a figure, she had to be quite polite, even on the phone.
Tang Long, who clearly had Madam Jiang's number, immediately said loudly, "I am Tang Long. Madam Jiang's birthday is approaching, and Tang Long was busy with official duties and could not attend in person. I hope Madam will not take offense."
This single sentence made Madam Jiang beam with joy.
And everyone present also praised the Jiang family for their prestige, as even Tang Long was so polite.
"Heh heh, Commander Tang should prioritize his official duties. I am very happy that Girl Tang Ru is here today."
"Oh? Did Tang Ru make a fool of herself at the banquet and offend Madam?" Tang Long's voice was neither hurried nor slow, without much flattery.
Madam Jiang glanced at Tang Ru and said, "Offend is not the word. It's just that today, a general, seemingly from some war zone, is here causing trouble. I wanted to ask Girl Tang Ru to call you, but this girl actually said that even calling you, Commander Tang, would be useless. Therefore, this old woman is personally asking Commander Tang to come!"
"A general is causing trouble at the Jiang family? Who?" Tang Long's tone immediately became serious.
Madam Jiang quickly responded, "I don't know this person's name, but standing in front of him is someone named Ling Feng..."
"What? Is it Tian..."
Unexpectedly, before Madam Jiang could finish speaking, Tang Long exclaimed from the other end!
Everyone heard the panic in Tang Long's voice.
For a moment, the entire scene fell into dead silence!
What was going on?
