Chapter 560: The Tip of the Iceberg (Third Update)
"It’s all because you had such a good son!" Zeng Hongjun grew more and more furious, unable to comprehend what Leng Hui was thinking, why he would choose to start an official war with the Zeng Family over someone like Lin Feng. Eventually, his thoughts turned into a mess, and seeing Zeng Wei beside him not saying a word, he kicked him furiously. Today’s disaster was all caused by Zeng Xiaolong. If Zeng Xiaolong had not done so many things first, he wouldn’t have been humiliated by Leng Hui and Meng Ping like this!
"Dad..." Zeng Wei also looked extremely wronged. He had thought that with his father stepping in, the Leng Family would surely hand over Lin Feng, that they would never offend the Zeng Family over an outsider. But to his astonishment, the situation turned out completely unexpected. Leng Hui had stood up to staunchly protect Lin Feng, and Meng Ping had also stood up to staunchly protect Lin Feng. With these two men’s support, no one in Capital City could touch Lin Feng...
Zeng Wei was now thoroughly confused – what exactly did Lin Feng rely on to make Leng Hui and Meng Ping do this? This... this was simply impossible. And yet, it was happening right before his eyes. Just who was Lin Feng? If he had known earlier about Lin Feng’s relationship with Leng Hui, he would never have told his father to come to the Leng Family and suffer such stifling indignation...
What on earth happened today?
What happened to the two generals, Leng Hui and Meng Ping?
How could they possibly unite to protect Lin Feng?
...
Since Family Head Zeng Hongjun spoke earlier, the others from the Zeng Family did not dare to say a word. Now on their way back, they still did not dare to speak, but inside, they were all incredibly shocked by this young man, Lin Feng. He had dared to break the young master’s leg, and despite his messy personal life, he was still affirmed by Leng Hui as a suitable husband for his granddaughter. What... what was this all about? Who was Lin Feng really? What abilities did he possess to deserve such treatment from General Leng...
But one thing everyone knew was that General Leng could not possibly make a mistake, and General Meng even less so. If something is abnormal, there must be a reason behind it. Since both elders thought highly of Lin Feng, he must possess something they were unaware of; otherwise, they would never stand so firmly behind Lin Feng. It must be so. It must be so!
In their hearts, everyone started to get the message: never to oppose Lin Feng alone. With Elders Leng Hui and Meng Ping around, antagonizing Lin Feng would definitely not end well. Thinking this, they all shivered and felt that it would be best to stay far away from Lin Feng in the future.
"Grandpa, Lin Feng and I will go back to our room now." Leng Mei was thrilled upon hearing her grandfather and Zeng Hongjun earlier. Her grandfather’s words were an open endorsement of her relationship with Lin Feng. With his statement out there, she and Lin Feng’s affairs would all be backed by her grandfather from now on, and she had no more concerns. Moreover, with both her grandfather and Grandpa Meng exerting their authority, they had directly forced the people from the Zeng Family to retreat. The more she thought about it, the happier Leng Mei became, and she couldn’t wait to return with Lin Feng to have a proper talk.
"All right, you two go back to your room," Leng Hui gestured with a wave of his hand for Leng Mei and Lin Feng to return to their room first, as he noticed Meng Ping’s gaze and knew he wanted to talk. It was a good time for Lin Feng and Leng Mei to leave.
"Elder Leng, we will leave now," Lin Feng said indifferently. With Leng Hui having stepped forward, he couldn’t possibly interject—that would be disrespectful to Leng Hui. Furthermore, Lin Feng had already guessed that Leng Hui would protect him, so he wasn’t overly surprised about the development of the situation. Hearing Leng Hui’s words, Lin Feng naturally suggested returning to their room with Leng Mei. After speaking, he led Leng Mei back to their room without looking back.
"Let’s go, we’ll sit over there." Leng Hui gestured toward the chess table on the lawn as Lin Feng and Leng Mei left, clearly indicating that was the best place for their conversation.
Without saying a word, Meng Ping and Leng Hui seated themselves and only then began their formal chat.
"Old Leng, what are you really thinking? Lin Feng has a fiancée, and he’s also involved with other women. How can you still agree to let Meimei be with him and even openly support their relationship? What... what’s going on here?"
Meng Ping looked at Leng Hui and eventually couldn’t hold back his question. He supported Lin Feng because Lin Feng had saved his life, but he couldn’t understand why Leng Hui would let Leng Mei be with Lin Feng, especially since Lin Feng was such a person. What... what was going on?
"Old Meng, how much do you really know about Lin Feng?" Leng Hui asked casually, his tone very calm.
"Isn’t Lin Feng just a French teacher and a highly-skilled doctor? Plus, what happened today," Meng Ping responded, feeling very puzzled by Leng Hui’s question, and he proceeded to share everything he knew about Lin Feng.
"What you know is just the tip of the iceberg. Do you remember, sixty years ago, when I was surrounded by thousands and was miraculously rescued by a peerless expert from within the encirclement?" Leng Hui said, his eyes starting to grow misty as he recalled the events of that year...
"I remember, you were already severely injured at that time and were sent back by a man with the air of an Immortal. Everyone almost regarded him as a living god. How could someone possibly rescue you alive from the midst of thousands of people, and even shake off all the pursuers? After he put you down, that old man just vanished." Meng Ping remembered the situation back then as if it were yesterday because it was so inconceivable, something one could never forget in a lifetime!
"This Lin Feng is his disciple, a direct disciple!" Leng Hui revealed one of Lin Feng’s identities.
"What!" Meng Ping was suddenly stunned. Leng Hui’s words meant he was definitely sure of it to say so. Therefore, the fact that Lin Feng was the disciple of that Immortal-like old man was indisputable. But this... this was too incredible. The man was already old back then, now after more than sixty years have passed, this... how is this possible? How old would that god-like man be now? Could it be... could it really be that he was an Immortal, and Lin Feng his disciple? That...
"And look at Lin Feng, he appears young, right? But I can tell you clearly, Lin Feng is definitely a super expert above AAA level. As for how high his skills reach, no one knows." Leng Hui once again shared his conjecture. From the various data transmitted back during his last trip to the Golden Triangle, Leng Hui had guessed that Lin Feng was definitely an expert above AAA level. This was not difficult for Leng Hui to determine, and what most important was that Lin Feng was indeed very young, with much potential development ahead of him!
"What! A high-level expert!" Hearing Leng Hui say this, Meng Ping was so astonished he almost couldn’t speak. AAA level experts were basically unseen in the Secular World, and even the Central Guards only had two AAA level experts, let alone the fact that Leng Hui said no one knew the true extent of Lin Feng’s skills. This... this was too impressive, how could Lin Feng be such a formidable super expert at his young age!
"In terms of medical skills, he saved your life!"
"You’ve also experienced his chess skills firsthand!"
"He can speak dozens of languages!"
...
Leng Hui slowly recounted all of Lin Feng’s feats. Although he had known about these things for a long time, upon reviewing all of Lin Feng’s abilities, he felt deeply impressed. Only that old man, akin to an Immortal, could have taught such a miraculous disciple like Lin Feng, who was now beyond any conventional description.
Now, Meng Ping was completely stunned by the things Leng Hui had revealed. He could never have imagined Lin Feng being such an impressive figure. If one could master even one such skill, they would be considered a genius among geniuses, but now, with so many unbelievable abilities gathered in one person, Lin Feng was...
Meng Ping finally understood why Leng Hui valued Lin Feng so much. If it were him who had encountered Lin Feng, he certainly would not let go of such an unfathomably powerful person. Lin Feng wasn’t even describable as merely human anymore. The abilities he had showcased couldn’t possibly be mastered by a single individual!
By the time Leng Hui finished discussing everything he knew, Meng Ping was left speechless, taking a long time to recover his wits. It was no wonder Leng Hui went to such lengths to protect Lin Feng. The root of it all was here. If Leng Mei ended up with Lin Feng, he would undoubtedly provide enough protection for the Leng Family. Even after Leng Hui was gone, Lin Feng would surely lead the Leng Family toward greater glory!
However, Meng Ping suddenly thought of a concern. Lin Feng had a fiancée, so what about Leng Mei...
"Elder Leng, it’s all well and good that Lin Feng is formidable, but he has a fiancée already, and there are other women, too. What about Meimei?" Meng Ping raised his concerns. If Leng Mei ended up with Lin Feng, what would her status be...
"Elder Meng, do you know who Lin Feng’s fiancée is? That’s Ding Yi’s granddaughter. Furthermore, the other women are all exceptional. How could a man as extraordinary as Lin Feng be satisfied with just one woman? You understand all this. So, even if Meimei doesn’t have any official status, I wouldn’t oppose it because Lin Feng and Leng Mei truly love each other, just as Lin Feng loves the other women."
Leng Hui chuckled as he said this. Yes, for a person like Lin Feng, it was unreasonable to expect him to conform to the ordinary one-man-one-wife relationship. The women surrounding him were all paragons in their own right, and it would be impossible to ask any of them to step aside. Moreover, they all understood very well that the so-called monogamy was a standard applicable to ordinary folk.
