Chapter 961: Offering a Gift
Chapter 961: Offering a Gift
Young Master Wang was utterly shocked today at Lin Feng’s wedding; he never expected so many influential figures to appear. Among the guests, he recognized some people—Leng Hui was one of the four Military Gods, and he was quite familiar with him. He also knew Shen Tian, having met him in Yuegang, and there was that princess, a world-renowned celebrity, and those globally famous scholars, and the internationally celebrated tycoons...
It was only now that Young Master Wang realized that Lin Feng had never truly revealed his real strength. The strength Lin Feng had been hiding was indeed terrifying. He knew what this network of connections represented. If these people were all Lin Feng’s people, then... then this world could essentially be considered Lin Feng’s world, for no one could compete with such a group of people...
"Yes, not just you, I didn’t expect it either," Max Dorrell continued, "Lin Feng turns out to be such a formidable person. Not only is he a super expert himself, but the strength behind him is also terrifying. If I had known this before, I would have never laid a hand on Chu Meng and would not have ended up in this situation today. Lin Feng today is simply beyond our ability to deal with. So now, our Boss is all the hope we have left. We can only hope that the Boss can kill Lin Feng; otherwise, there really is no way out."
Hearing Young Master Wang’s words, Max Dorrell also sighed deeply. He likewise never imagined that the strength Lin Feng demonstrated had exceeded everyone’s expectations—disturbingly so because of Lin Feng being a super expert. The strength revealed today was even more horrifying, leaving him equally astonished.
Now, Max Dorrell genuinely regretted it, thoroughly regretted it. If he had known earlier that the Lin Feng beside Chu Meng was so terrifying, he would never have made the decision to strike against the Cloud Fund. Everything had surpassed his predictions, completely losing his original control. Now, not only his Doer Family, but the entire Business Alliance also suffered Chu Meng’s purging, in an extremely dire situation, struggling desperately, possibly collapsing at any moment.
Reflecting on the past events, Max Dorrell felt terribly distressed. However, regretting now was useless; things had already happened. He could only face them. In his heart, he truly couldn’t accept why someone like Lin Feng should appear in this world, seemingly destined to be his and his brothers’ nemesis.
The Boss had Lin Feng snatch away Ding Wan’er; even the Li Family was destroyed by Lin Feng. He had become what he was now. Even high officials like Old Six were forced by Lin Feng to leave the Capital. All of these were thanks to Lin Feng. When had they ever been subjected to such treatment? If not for Lin Feng, how could they have ended up like this?
Only by killing Lin Feng could everything return to how it was before. Now, all hope had to be placed on the Boss. They could only hope the Boss would manage to kill Lin Feng; there was truly no other way left...
"Fourth Brother..."
Hearing Max Dorrell’s words, Young Master Wang also deeply agreed. He was also filled with regret. How could he have expected that, just because of the seemingly insignificant Lin Family Village, his conflict with Lin Feng would escalate to this point, eventually forcing him out of the Capital? If not for his grandfather’s face, it’s questionable whether he would be alive right now. Thinking of this, Young Master Wang couldn’t help but feel somber. At this point, other than waiting for the Boss to kill Lin Feng, there really was nothing more to be done...
"Old Six, don’t talk anymore. Let’s just watch from here, waiting for the Boss to kill Lin Feng." Max Dorrell motioned for Young Master Wang to stop speaking with a wave of his hand because speaking was of no use now. The time had come, and they could only await the result of the final battle between the Boss and Lin Feng. If the Boss managed to kill Lin Feng, the world would be balanced. However, if the Boss was no match for Lin Feng, then... then it would be time to execute his plan.
Max Dorrell thought to himself, praying that the Boss would manage to kill Lin Feng. He really did not want to initiate the final plan unless absolutely necessary. The high-profile individuals present were too many. If anything happened to these people, just thinking of the consequences was terrifying. By that time, their Doer Family would truly and completely vanish from this world, with not a single person left alive!
Thinking of this, Max Dorrell turned pale...
At the wedding scene, Old Monster, Liu Pingfeng, Wan Long, Zhu Tao, and many experts from the Nangong Family were gathered around a table, each person’s face beaming with joyful smiles. Lin Feng’s grand wedding had naturally delighted them, and their conversation revolved entirely around Lin Feng’s wedding.
"Today is truly a joyful day. Did you see? Lin Feng’s wedding was so grand; only Lin Feng could manage such a lavish wedding," Wan Long said cheerfully, unaware that Lin Feng’s wedding would turn out so grand today. The scene was truly a sea of people; those who came were no ordinary individuals. Only Lin Feng could manage such a massive wedding. Only now did Wan Long realize that the strength Lin Feng had previously shown was just the tip of the iceberg.
"I didn’t know the young master knew these people either. I only met them today as well."
Zhu Tao heard what Wan Long said and felt rather speechless. He simply replied, "Wan Long," he hadn’t known until today either that Lin Feng knew so many influential figures and that the relationships were far from ordinary. Previously, Zhu Tao didn’t have a clue, but now he didn’t mind these matters at all, having grown accustomed to witnessing all kinds of inconceivable things around Lin Feng. Anything could happen to Lin Feng.
"Wan Long, you’ve known Lin Feng for so long and still don’t understand him? He’s so low-profile that, had it not been for his wedding today, he probably wouldn’t have gathered these people. Don’t you think, Old Monster?"
Nangong He chuckled from the sidelines. Considering Lin Feng’s young age and terrifying power, having defeated even Li Deming, it was perfectly normal for Lin Feng to have other unknown secrets, since Lin Feng wasn’t within the bounds of normal people anyhow. Looking at Lin Feng from a distance, Nangong He felt immensely sentimental. Without Lin Feng, both he and the Nangong Family would have ceased to exist, let alone attending a wedding here— they owed their survival to Lin Feng’s help.
Most of the guests present were unknown to him, but he could still tell that none of the individuals seated on the groom’s side were ordinary—each had an aura of superiority, not to mention the presence of princesses and generals, which spoke volumes of Lin Feng’s powerful background. Seeing Lin Feng so formidable made him very happy because he had already tied the Nangong Family to Lin Feng, a union which was all beneficial for the Nangong Family. Moreover, he genuinely liked Lin Feng as a person, so he was of course even more delighted on this celebratory wedding day.
"You, Nangong He, really know how to speak. But then again," Old Monster interjected, "today Lin Feng indeed surprised me. I hadn’t expected today’s wedding to be so grand. Seeing Lin Feng getting married today makes us all happy, doesn’t it?"
Old Monster casually remarked, feeling quite astonished himself that Lin Feng’s wedding was conducted on such a grand scale. However, his surprise was fleeting; he had long placed his estimation of Lin Feng far beyond the ordinary. On Lin Feng, nothing was impossible, so Old Monster wasn’t surprised anymore. Today, being at Lin Feng’s wedding was a joy in itself, and he didn’t want to dwell on other pointless considerations.
"Lin Feng is getting married today, and we are all here to celebrate—who wouldn’t be happy? Let’s not talk about that now, once the banquet starts, let’s make sure to drink plenty." Liu Pingfeng added, although he too was quite astounded by the grandeur of Lin Feng’s wedding. However, Liu Pingfeng didn’t care much about that; what mattered was being here today to enjoy himself and later, to drink a few extra rounds with those present, offering more blessings to Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er. That was what mattered most.
"Haha, Old Liu is right, we definitely need to drink a good few more glasses later."
"Yes, when Lin Feng comes over later, each of us should drink a couple more."
"Absolutely, I’ve even prepared a pair of mandarin duck jade butterflies for Lin Feng, though I didn’t realize he had so many women—I only brought one..."
"You see, that’s where you’re not as thoughtful as I am. I’ve prepared a set of the original Emperor’s Inner Canon for Lin Feng—a true collector’s edition passed down in our Nangong Family. Old Monster, don’t tell me you haven’t prepared anything."
"How could that be? What I’ve prepared is quite thoughtful—a Nine Phoenixes Ascending to the Heavens Painting, an original I obtained years ago. It’s definitely presentable."
"Compared to you, my gift seems hardly presentable. I couldn’t help it; I’m not as impressive as you guys. I specifically had a set of gold and jade cups made, that’s the best gift I could think of."
"By the way, Old Monster, since you’re here at the wedding, who’s looking after things in Capital City?"
"No worries, I’ve arranged for someone to take my place in Capital City—a recluse almost as powerful as I am, who always defied me but whom I’ve now defeated. With him managing Capital City, there’s no issue unless someone as powerful as Li Deming shows up. There’s really nothing to worry about, otherwise how could I possibly leave Capital City? Last time I helped Lin Feng with a rescue, it was him managing Capital City too, and even if something goes wrong, he can hold the fort until I return. There’s really nothing to worry about."
"That’s good."
"..."
As the experts chatted together, the atmosphere was lively, with the conversation lightly touching on the wedding before they began discussing the gifts they had brought for Lin Feng. Each gift was a treasure of immense value, representing their good will. In their hearts, they had already considered themselves as belonging to Lin Feng, even Old Monster included, because Lin Feng indeed possessed such capabilities. Now, Lin Feng was rightfully acknowledged as the foremost person in the Cultivation World, which was indisputable.
