Chapter 317 - 80: Waiting by the Tree for a Rabbit to Run? Run for Your Life! (Part 3)

"Get lost!"

Si Nan snapped back to reality, and rolled his eyes at Shi Sheng, who was grinning happily.

So what if I’ve been surpassed, it’s none of your business!

Nonetheless, Si Nan’s expression still carried some gloom.

Shi Sheng, who had been insulted, didn’t care at all and even continued smiling. Seeing his brother unhappy made him feel quite delighted.

,,,

"No wonder!"

Si Nan finally got it.

"No wonder Lord Thousand Households Yin couldn’t find any clues. It turns out the culprit was right under his nose all along!"

The one in charge of this case was indeed Lord Thousand Households Yin.

Thinking back to when Lord Thousand Households Yin previously waited in ambush here with his men, Si Nan felt enlightened.

Good grief.

Ambushing with the culprit right in front of you, if you can catch them, that’s truly miraculous.

No wonder the most dangerous place is the safest; Lord Thousand Households Yin surely never expected the perpetrator was beside him all along.

"Is the Lord going to arrest me?"

Feng Feiyi kept his gaze on Ye Liuyun, disregarding other comments.

"What, you want to run?"

The implication...

As if saying he would arrest you meant Feng Feiyi could escape.

,,

Feng Feiyi really wanted to nod, but the other was a Grandmaster after all.

Not just that.

Feng Feiyi’s gaze drifted across Shi Sheng and Jiangjing.

One in the same Postnatal Realm as himself and the other in the Innate Perfection realm; he might not escape even if he lost his head from running!

"Hey! Why aren’t you looking at me?"

Feng Feiyi’s intentions were too clear.

Si Nan couldn’t ignore them even if he wanted to.

For a moment, he felt somewhat dissatisfied; why focus only on others and not on me? Do you look down on me, a First-class Martial Artist?

"Uh! Sorry!"

He didn’t expect his gaze would make Si Nan so angry.

Feng Feiyi instinctively apologized.

"You,,"

He originally wanted to say more.

Didn’t expect Feng Feiyi to apologize straight away, leaving Si Nan somewhat speechless.

He waved his hand, saying directly.

"Forget it, you’re forgiven!"

Sigh! Being so polite makes it hard for me to curse you.

"Lord Ye!"

Feng Feiyi looked once more at Ye Liuyun, speaking while gathering his inner strength.

"I have reasons I must survive, so I can’t be caught. Please give me a chance, after this matter, I’ll personally apologize!"

Feng Feiyi wasn’t afraid to die.

But right now, he couldn’t die.

Otherwise, even in death, he’d face his parents without words.

Feng Feiyi’s aura began swelling stronger, clearly planning to act.

All at once.

Si Nan and the others became serious too, waiting for Ye Liuyun’s command to act.

However.

Ye Liuyun showed no intention of acting.

Instead, he tilted his head, looking at Feng Feiyi in front of him.

"So, your reason is to seek revenge on Marquis Rong’gong, is it?"

"Uh!"

How do you know?

That simple sentence from Ye Liuyun made Feng Feiyi pause visibly, the motion of gathering inner strength halted.

He blinked, looking incredulously at Ye Liuyun.

"Although you initially burned other gambling dens to cover your tracks, it soon became more evident!"

If not seeking revenge, why would you continually target Marquis Rong’gong’s operations?

Moreover.

Marquis Rong’gong’s assets weren’t just gambling dens, yet Feng Feiyi only targeted them; clearly there was more to this.

"Tell me, you seem quite capable, I appreciate your skills. If you truly carry grievances, I might be able to help!"

Ye Liuyun wasn’t a blindly kind person.

His actions were always beneficial.

Firstly, Feng Feiyi’s skills were impressive, making him a great subordinate. That Hidden Endurance talent, though somewhat naïve, was at least purple quality.

The talent was good, the skills were good.

Most importantly, his nature was good.

Even burdened with hatred, he understood not to implicate the innocent; this made Feng Feiyi commendable.

Putting all factors together.

Mm!

A subordinate worth recruiting.

"Really?"

However.

Upon hearing Ye Liuyun’s words, Feng Feiyi’s emotions surged.

His gaze at Ye Liuyun even sparkled.

In Feng Feiyi’s view.

If Ye Liuyun was willing to help, then his revenge would surely succeed.

"First!"

With a wave.

Ye Liuyun directly interrupted Feng Feiyi’s excitement.

"I need to know what truly happened to you. If you dare deceive me, I’ll make sure you die tragically!"

Ye Liuyun spoke calmly.

That Marquis Rong’gong might not be anything decent, but specifics aside, he hadn’t seen him; how would he know?

"I understand!"

Upon hearing Ye Liuyun’s words.

Feng Feiyi calmed significantly.

Composing himself, he began recounting his story to Ye Liuyun.

The story didn’t appear complex.

Five years ago!

Back then, Feng Feiyi was merely an ordinary person, living with his parents in the West City.

The family had a small business, fairly affluent.

No one knows whether tomorrow or accidents come first.

Back then, Marquis Rong’gong was aggressively buying properties in the West City, intending to build gambling dens.

The place where Feng Feiyi and his parents lived was targeted.

The crux was, Marquis Rong’gong claimed to buy, but intended not to pay, or rather, not to pay ordinary families devoid of power like Feng Feiyi’s.
