But these were merely concerns for Lin Feng. He knew that at this moment, Liu Fei was likely just being cautious of him; he wasn't yet in a position to deal with Lin Feng.
This confidence stemmed from Lin Feng's understanding of Liu Fei and his grasp of the current situation.
Firstly, Lin Feng knew that Liu Fei was a prudent person. Before he was sure he could handle Lin Feng, he wouldn't take any action against him, fearing that he might end up losing more than he gained.
Secondly, Lin Feng was also aware that Liu Fei probably didn't have the leisure to deal with him right now. Although Song Gang's Song Lie had been eliminated, it wouldn't be easy for Qian Bang to swallow up Song Gang in one go. Therefore, Lin Feng believed that as long as Liu Fei had some sense, he wouldn't provoke him at this critical juncture.
So after hanging up on Liu Fei, Lin Feng went back to sleep. He was well aware of Qian Bang's defenses; for him, sleep was the most important thing after being woken up by a phone call in the early morning.
However, at seven in the morning, Lin Feng's sleep was interrupted again, this time by Song Qi.
Picking up the phone, Lin Feng seemed to have anticipated Song Qi's call. He casually replied, "Hello..." His voice was lazy; although he was answering the call, his eyes remained closed.
"Lin Feng, did you know? Song Lie has been taken out." There wasn't a hint of sadness in Song Qi's voice; instead, it was filled with excitement.
How could Lin Feng not know that Song Lie had been eliminated? But he wouldn't tell Song Qi; instead, he pretended to be unaware. "Oh? He has been taken out?"
"Yeah, I think this is an opportunity for me," Song Qi said, still sounding excited.
"Isn't Song Xin still around?" Lin Feng had instructed Song Xin and others to leave immediately after taking care of Song Lie and find a place to hide, so he knew that Song Xin was still alive.
"Even if Song Xin is alive, he's useless; that waste can't stop anyone," Song Qi said, clearly looking down on Song Xin.
However, Song Qi's attitude towards Song Xin was indeed correct. Regardless of whether Song Xin was under Lin Feng's control or not, he couldn't stir up any waves now.
"Well, what do you want me to do?" Lin Feng was not foolish; he knew that if Song Qi didn't need his help, she would never have brought this up. He understood that woman quite well.
"I need your help. This time, we're dealing with Song Gang, and it's Qian Bang." Song Qi was straightforward, directly stating her request.
"Heh... you think too highly of me. I'm no match for Liu Fei, let alone that Old Buddy of Song Gang." Lin Feng naturally refused. Given the current situation, he would not wade into this mess just because of Song Qi's invitation; he did not believe that she could achieve victory.
In fact, Lin Feng even mentioned a secret that Song Qi had never told him, making it clear that he was not so easily fooled.
"Old Buddy? Lin Feng, do you know the Song Family's secret?" Upon hearing Lin Feng mention Old Buddy, Song Qi vaguely guessed that he must know something.
"Heh... I have my own sources of information, Song Qi. As a former ally who once stood by your side, I advise you to stay away from this matter; you're not qualified for it. Whether or not you heed my advice is up to you. Alright, I'm hanging up." Lin Feng had no particular fondness for Song Qi; he knew she had always been thinking about how to use him. However, he didn't want her to foolishly grasp at this so-called opportunity—she might end up in danger.
After saying that, Lin Feng decisively hung up the phone.
Then, he went back to sleep.
Taking a nap felt quite nice.
On the other end of the line, after being hung up on by Lin Feng, Song Qi muttered "Men are all no good" before immediately starting to make her plans. She wouldn't listen to Lin Feng; she knew she was taking a gamble, but she believed she could win this time.
After all, her influence had yet to surface, and she was confident she could seize what she believed rightfully belonged to her—Song Gang.
Meanwhile, Qian Bang had already begun his attack on Song Gang. At this moment, Liu Fei was confronting that Old Buddy from Song Gang.
"Old Buddy, it's been so many years. I wonder if you've made any progress?" Liu Fei seemed quite familiar with this guardian of Song Gang as he stood opposite him, speaking without a hint of respect for his elder.
At this critical moment, both sides had already torn off their masks of respect.
"Kid from the Liu Family, you really are fearless like a newborn calf," the Old Buddy wrapped in a black robe said, his voice filled with hostility and provocation.
"Whether I'm a dragon or a worm, you'll find out soon enough, Old Buddy. Prepare yourself." Liu Fei seemed to have been confident all along and was eager to make his move. As he spoke, he had already closed the distance to Song Gang's Old Buddy.
"Young and reckless." The Old Buddy was not surprised by Liu Fei's actions. With a light shout, he also launched an attack in response.
In an instant, the two quickly engaged in combat.
Both of their moves were extremely fierce; clearly, this was a life-and-death battle.
Their actions were so swift that bystanders could hardly see what they were doing, only catching glimpses of their afterimages. In no time, they had exchanged over a dozen moves.
Both knew that this fight was perilous; one misstep could lead to death. Therefore, they unleashed their ultimate skills, aiming to bring the other to ruin.
After a long while, they separated and stood facing each other.
"You've won," the old man in the black robe said before collapsing to the ground.
"Heh heh..." Liu Fei chuckled lightly. Though he didn't laugh out loud, there was a sense of satisfaction in his laughter.
There was no need to say more; since Liu Fei had already eliminated Song Gang's guardian and Song Lie was no longer around, Song Gang was naturally at the mercy of Qian Bang, which divided him up cleanly.
Meanwhile, Song Qi, who had originally planned to take advantage of the situation to reclaim Song Gang, was caught off guard by Qian Bang. At that moment, she realized that Qian Bang and Liu Fei were far stronger than she had imagined.
In fact, Song Qi still couldn't believe that Liu Fei was able to kill Song Gang's guardian, that old man in the black robe.
Fortunately, Song Qi was a smart woman. After learning that Song Gang's guardian had been killed by Liu Fei, she had already evacuated from C City, ultimately saving her own life.
In the darkness, in a small alley of C City, a woman dressed entirely in black was walking while supporting her shoulder.
She walked unsteadily, with faint blood seeping from her shoulder, clearly indicating that she had sustained serious injuries.
Yet she persisted in walking. She knew that if she stopped, what awaited her would be a fate more tragic than she could imagine.
This woman was Song Qi. She now regretted not listening to Lin Feng and not getting involved in this mess. Just moments ago, she had escaped from Qian Bang's pursuit, but the price she paid was her severe injuries.
Song Qi's combat skills were not high, but she had firearms on her, which allowed her to evade Qian Bang's chase.
However, now she knew that her injuries were grave; even walking was difficult. If she encountered any more pursuers from Qian Bang, she did not believe she could escape again.
The strength that Song Qi had accumulated over the years seemed utterly insufficient in front of Qian Bang's forces. She had originally thought that even if someone emerged victorious between Liu Fei and Song Gang's guardian, the winner would at least be heavily injured. But her estimation was wrong again; Liu Fei won without sustaining significant injuries.
Thus, Song Qi could only watch as the power she had painstakingly cultivated was gradually eroded by Qian Bang, ultimately forcing her to flee while injured.
Swallowing hard, Song Qi realized she hadn't eaten for an entire day. This day had passed without a drop of water or food, and with her severe injuries, she truly doubted how much longer she could hold on.
She knew that the only one who could save her now was Lin Feng. However, she didn't believe Lin Feng would come to her aid; a few days ago, when he learned that she intended to take a desperate gamble with everything on the line, he had severed their partnership.
Moreover, she also knew that C City was now filled with Qian Bang's people. She couldn't leave C City to go to City B, a mid-level city. She didn't even dare to go out to buy food for fear of attracting Qian Bang's attention and pursuit. Let alone taking a bus or a plane to City B to find Lin Feng.
Despite this, desperate Song Qi gritted her teeth, leaned against a wall in the alley, and dialed Lin Feng's number.
"Hello..." Lin Feng quickly answered the call. However, the phone Song Qi was using was not her usual one; it was a backup phone that she had never used before and no one knew about. She dared not use any of her previous phones for fear that Qian Bang might trace her through them.
"It's Song Qi." Her voice was somewhat weak, indicating her identity.
Hearing Song Qi's voice made Lin Feng's heart skip a beat for no apparent reason. He naturally knew what Song Qi must have gone through in recent days, and now it seemed that she was still alive.
Although Lin Feng had hung up after giving his advice to Song Qi that day, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy at the thought of such a beautiful and capable woman potentially paying with her life for her own mistakes. Yet, he had never sought out Song Qi. He understood that feeling sympathy was one thing, but he couldn't find a reason to help this stubborn woman.
But now that Song Qi was calling him, Lin Feng felt a different emotion rising within him, as if he were glad that she was still alive.
"Song Qi, where are you right now?" he asked instinctively, even unsure if she would tell him her location. After all, she was facing significant danger, and he didn't think she would trust him enough to reveal where she was.
"C City, Nanshui Street..." Song Qi smiled lightly, surprising Lin Feng by providing a location. Then, the phone slipped from her hand, and Lin Feng heard the sound of it hitting the ground.
After that, no matter how much Lin Feng called out, there was no response from the other end.
Song Qi had either fainted or passed out. That was Lin Feng's current judgment.
Instinctively, he dialed Song Xin's number. For some reason, he felt that he had to save Song Qi, or else he would regret it.
