"What about this person?" Ah Tai asked.
Ling Feng turned to look at Zhou Yan, "Though he’s just a runner, he was involved in harming people. Do you have any rules for dealing with such people here?"
"Usually, it’s breaking limbs, crippling him," Ah Tai replied.
"Do it by the rules then!"
Ling Feng said, turned around, and left.
Behind him, screams rang out, but they no longer piqued his interest. Now, Ling Feng wanted to know what exactly that goat-bearded old Taoist was up to!
After getting back in the car, he reported an address, and Ah Tai’s men immediately started the car and drove off.
On the way, Ah Tai said, "Mr. Ling, I know the address you mentioned, it’s Peng Family’s territory."
"Then it’s not surprising, Zhou Yan being used, his superior stepping in is naturally the most effective means," Ling Feng nodded.
"Although Peng Family is not among the top few on Harbor Island, they are still a significant family with substantial assets. Mr. Ling, are you really prepared to go against them?" Ah Tai asked.
"This isn’t going against them, just finding out the truth!"
Ling Feng chuckled and continued, "Of course, if the conspiracy behind this is too filthy, it still needs to be dealt with!"
Ah Tai: "..."
Upon seeing Ling Feng’s nonchalant demeanor, his heart trembled.
To deal with a major family worth billions, yet so composed and leisurely, ordinary people would not possess such a presence.
The car soon left the city and arrived near an estate located at the southwestern corner of Harbor Island.
As the car stopped by the roadside, Ling Feng said to Ah Tai, "Alright, your task ends here, leave the rest to me, you can go back now!"
"Mr. Ling...."
Ah Tai wanted to say something more, but Ling Feng waved his hand, "No need to say more, I’m fine, go back!"
He also understood that the forces on Harbor Island were intricate and complicated; solving issues by himself without their involvement was the best course.
Seeing Ling Feng’s firm attitude, Ah Tai had no choice but to nod, "Alright then, Mr. Ling, take care, we’re leaving."
Ling Feng got out of the car, watched as it drove away, then turned his head to look at the estate.
Soon, he found himself outside the walls, his divine sense swept through once, and the situation inside was revealed; the goat-bearded old Taoist was immediately spotted.
The old man was resting with his eyes closed in a fighting room, with some strange and peculiar items laid in front of him, seemingly performing some ritual.
Ling Feng chuckled inwardly, "Crooked ways, today is your end!"
Although it was broad daylight, he leapt over the wall and strode towards that fighting room.
"Woof Woof Woof!"
The Peng Family estate couldn’t be without any security; barely a little distance in, a burst of dog barking came, and soon after, two massive Caucasian dogs came running his way.
Ling Feng’s lips curled up, he glared at the big dogs, and they immediately stopped, turning tail and fleeing hurriedly!
The powerful aura was something the big dogs were truly afraid of.
Another dozen meters forward, a group of men in black wielding electric batons charged towards him, shouting, "Who goes there!"
Ling Feng didn’t bother speaking, activated his Mind Soul Art, and the bodyguards collapsed instantly.
Thus, unimpeded, Ling Feng went straight to the fighting room door, kicked it open, and walked inside.
The old Taoist inside the house shivered, looked back at Ling Feng, "Who are you?"
"The one here to settle scores!"
Ling Feng sneered, stepped forward, and kicked!
Although the old Taoist knew some sinister arts, his abilities were just mediocre, completely unable to dodge, so he was directly kicked to the ground!
"How dare you break into Peng’s estate....."
The old Taoist was both anxious and angry, just as he wanted to call for help, Ling Feng was already in front of him, pinching his throat with one hand, "You’re the audacious one, daring to use evil arts to harm people!"
Suspended in the air, the old Taoist was startled, his face turned like a baboon’s buttocks as he struggled mightily.
Unfortunately, that strength truly wasn’t up to much.
Ling Feng tightened his grip on the man’s throat, "Speak, who instructed you to use Soul Detachment Water on Cheng Xiao, and what is your purpose!"
After several inquiries, the reason behind the matter was clear.
And the old Taoist, having been choked for too long, rolled his eyes and let his tongue droop out a long way, passing out directly.
Seeing the skeletons, unknown dark red blood, and other things in the room, Ling Feng frowned, then threw a Five Elements Fruit, which instantly ignited a blazing fire!
Turning to leave, the courtyard was already filled with many people, all of whom were the estate’s security and staff.
He glanced over them, spotted a middle-aged man wearing glasses among the crowd, and Ling Feng coldly asked, "Who is Peng Danian?"
"That’s my father, who are you?" the middle-aged man inquired.
Ling Feng chuckled coldly, "Tell your old man, I’ve got my eyes on him. I don’t have the time now, but I’ll come back to settle the score with him!"
After taking a step, he turned back to issue a reminder, "Oh, and let him know, if he still desires to seize the Cheng Family’s mountain forest in Qianxi, I will see your Peng Family reduced to ashes!"
With that said, under the stunned gaze of the Peng Family, Ling Feng turned to leave.
No one dared to come forward and stop him, for the aura he exuded was far too powerful!
It took a moment of daze before the middle-aged man shouted, "Hurry up and put out the fire!"
People rushed to extinguish the flames, while he quickly turned and went back upstairs, heading straight to the second floor and pushed open the study door.
A white-haired elder was sitting at the desk, reading a book, and without lifting his head said, "What’s got you in such a hurry?"
"Dad, Sun Daozhang is dead, that person knows about the Cheng Family issue," the middle-aged man said.
Peng Danian raised his head, "Who is that person?"
"He said his name is Ling Feng, if I’m not mistaken, he’s the one who recently made quite a splash, known as the World Gambling King!" the middle-aged man said.
"It’s him?"
Peng Danian frowned, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.
...
...
Ling Feng returned by car to the villa on the hillside, where Zheng Yitong and Cheng Xiao were chatting.
Seeing him return, the two women stood up simultaneously, "How did it go?"
"Don’t worry, it’s all resolved!"
Ling Feng smiled, sat down, and then recounted the entire sequence of events without any reservation.
After he finished speaking, seeing Cheng Xiao’s mouth wide open in surprise, Ling Feng said, "Your stepmother was unaware of this situation, Zhou Yan’s actions were all directed by the Peng Family. Now he’s crippled, and the old Taoist has been dealt with by me. You won’t be targeted anymore!"
"Why did the Peng Family eye Xiao Xiao’s grandfather’s land?" Zheng Yitong asked.
"Of course, it’s for profit."
Ling Feng gave a wry smile and continued, "There are some highly valuable things in that mountain, but to confirm, I’m planning to take a look next."
Hearing that, Cheng Xiao immediately said, "I’ll go with you!"
Ling Feng nodded, "Alright, after all, it’s your family’s property; you should understand what exactly lies in that forest!"
