Under Fatty Huang's lead, they passed through walls and dug through holes, finally arriving in front of a very secretive underground chamber.
"Dong... dong..."
"Dong, dong, dong..."
Fatty Huang knocked out a signal of two long and three short knocks in rhythm. Only then did the sound of clanking echoes from the other side of the stone gate, and Ling Feng saw a familiar face, it was Lan Yingying whom he had met before at the God Demon Battlefield.
As soon as Lan Yingying saw Fatty Huang and the strong man beside him, she immediately slammed the door shut with a "bang," cursing, "You damned fatty, I told you to bring back Ling Feng, what kind of ghost have you brought back!"
Ling Feng's forehead turned dark, and he shook his head with a bitter smile, undoing the transformation of the Eight Desolate Body Forging Technique to return to his normal shape, his facial features becoming much softer.
"Lazy girl, look at who I am?"
Ling Feng reached out to hold the stone door. Lan Yingying took a close look and finally relaxed.
"Young Master Ling, so it really is you!"
Saying this, Lan Yingying hurriedly opened the stone door, inviting Ling Feng into the stone chamber.
Feeng Yan had previously spoken highly of Ling Feng, even considering him as a close friend. As the saying goes, "Love me, love my dog," so Lan Yingying's attitude towards Ling Feng was naturally quite courteous.
Fatty Huang also followed into the stone chamber, closed the stone door, muttering a few words to himself, and then turned to glance at Lan Yingying, chuckling, "When Fatty Huang does something, how could there be any mistakes? Yingying, you really underestimate me!"
Lan Yingying gave Fatty Huang a glare, "Who allowed Feeng Yan go to Tianluo Island, saying it must hold great treasures? And what was the result?!"
"Well..."
Fatty Huang's face froze, "You can't blame me for that; it's what the divinations said. And anyway, if Mr. Feeng wants to go to Tianluo Island, how could I stop him?"
"Hmph!"
Lan Yingying put her hands on her hips. When a woman pouts like this, she's not likely to listen to any reasoning.
At this moment, a girl dressed in plain white clothing walked out from the inner chamber. Although lacking makeup, she possessed a unique charm. Especially her bright eyes, which bore a lively aura, clearly a smart and clever woman.
Even though Lan Yingying could be considered a beauty, she paled in comparison to this white-clothed girl.
Even Ling Feng was slightly amazed, though he quickly returned to normal.
This white-dressed lady must be none other than the Second Miss of the Feeng Family, undeniably a stunning beauty. No wonder even an old fox like the Sect Leader of the Tiejian Sect got improper ideas.
"You are Ling Feng, Young Master Ling, aren't you? I am Feeng Chan. Greetings, Young Master Ling."
The second Miss Feeng moved gracefully to Ling Feng, greeted with a slight bow, and softly said, "My elder brother often mentions you before me. Though we have not met, I have heard your name so much my ears are growing callouses."
Ling Feng laughed awkwardly, "Brother Feeng truly overpraises me. Compared to Brother Feeng, I'm really quite inferior."
"Brother Ling, this is the second miss. She is the smartest person in the entire Fungling County. If she hadn't theorized that your conflicts with the Tiejian Sect were a strategy to help us, I wouldn't have sought you out."
Fatty Huang patted his round belly and chuckled.
Ling Feng couldn't help but look at the second Miss Feeng with increased respect, realizing she was indeed quite extraordinary!
The so-called Fungling County is a commandery where the Heavenly Saint Empire borders the Sky White Empire. Weiling City is but one city within Fungling County.
Originally, the Feeng Family oversaw all of Fungling County, essentially acting as its governors; their status was far beyond any small Tiejian Sect.
However, everything changed the moment Feeng Yan went to Tianluo Island.
Soon, Ling Feng learned from the second Miss Feeng that after Feeng Yan mysteriously disappeared on Tianluo Island, the Sect Leader of the Tiejian Sect suddenly visited the Feeng Family, claiming to have news of Feeng Yan. He invited the Feeng Family Patriarch and Feeng Chan to the Tiejian Sect under the pretext of discussing the rescue of Feeng Yan.
But the ensuing events were entirely beyond Feeng Chan's expectations. Her father seemed to have his mind controlled and actually wanted to marry her off to the old pervert Sect Leader of the Tiejian Sect.
Fortunately, with the help of Fatty Huang and Lan Yingying, she was rescued, or else no one would have known of the Tiejian Sect's conspiracy.
"So, from the moment Brother Feeng stepped foot on Tianluo Island, it was all part of the Tiejian Sect's conspiracy, setting up a trap step by step to lure the Feeng Family Patriarch, likely aiming to swallow the entire Feeng Family."
Ling Feng touched his nose and analyzed, "Now, with the Feeng Family Patriarch in the hands of the Tiejian Sect's Sect Leader, they can control the entire Feeng Family through him."
"Only such a massive entity like the Feeng Family would tempt the Tiejian Sect, proving they're not as simple as they appear."
Feeng Chan nodded slightly and softly said, "Young Master Ling is indeed wise. Over the past few days, I had Fatty Huang and Yingying gather some information. Only then did I find out that the Sect Leader of the Tiejian Sect is the direct disciple of the Island Master of Tianluo Island, Ancestor Luo!"
"Here comes Ancestor Luo again!"
Ling Feng's eyes slightly narrowed, "In that case, Brother Feeng is very likely in the hands of this Ancestor Luo. Has he...
"No, not yet!"
Feeng Chan produced a Jade Token and slowly said, "This is my brother's lifeline Lamp Token. As long as its light remains, my brother is still alive."
"Fortunately, thank goodness."
Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief. If Feeng Yan had died, his efforts would have been in vain.
"It seems Young Master Ling is very concerned about my brother. I thank you here." Once again, Feeng Chan bowed to Ling Feng, causing him to blush with embarrassment.
"We're all friends!"
Ling Feng reached out to help Feeng Chan up, cheerfully saying, "What is the second miss's plan now?"
The strength of Ancestor Luo remains unknown, but since he dares to provoke a giant like the Feeng Family, he likely possesses significant abilities.
"My intention is to find a way to leave the city first. Once I return to Fungling County, I can expose the Tiejian Sect's conspiracy and unite the elders of my family to deal with the Tiejian Sect and Ancestor Luo!"
Feeng Chan bit her silver teeth and stated firmly.
"That's indeed a good idea." Ling Feng nodded. This Feeng Chan, despite being a woman, can remain calm and analytically approach problems, truly remarkable.
If the elders of the Feeng Family stepped in, he wouldn't face danger alone.
However, given the current lockdown of the city, although Fatty Huang and Lan Yingying can hide her, they can't help her sneak out of the city.
Simply put, their fists aren't strong enough.
But Ling Feng was different, unless the Sect Leader of the Tiejian Sect personally intervened, no one else could stop him!
After all, the Despicable Donkey isn't a vegetarian!
"Alright, Second Miss, rest assured, I will take care of the matter of leaving the city."
Ling Feng raised his sword-like eyebrows, though the situation seemed troublesome, at least it provided some clear information, better than his previous aimless searching.
If he could assist the Feeng Family greatly, he could request the Blood Jade Spring Flower from Feeng Yan later, which Feeng Yan would have no reason to refuse.
