When Lin Feng finally snapped out of his shock, Liu Yanran had already walked away. She even gave Lin Feng an "ok" hand gesture, indicating that he could start his actions.
Seeing this, Lin Feng no longer hesitated; there was no reason to. With Liu Fei and Hong Jin both present, he could launch a joint attack. Although having more people around would increase the pressure on him during the attack, at least it provided Liu Yanran with an opportunity to inform her Grandpa.
Lin Feng had no intention of stepping forward to exchange pleasantries with Liu Fei. No matter how skilled he was, dealing with Liu Fei alone was already a challenge. It was impossible for him to handle both Liu Fei and Hong Jin along with other experts simultaneously.
Thus, Lin Feng could only make his appearance through a sneak attack.
He knew that as long as he initiated the surprise attack, Liu Yanran would begin her breakout. In that case, he would be providing cover for her escape.
Approaching Liu Fei silently, Lin Feng had no plans to shout loudly at the start; that was just a movie trope. Since it was a sneak attack, why would he alert the opponent by shouting? If he did that, could it still be called a "sneak attack"?
"Bang..." The first sound heard here wasn't some pre-fight banter but rather the sound of two people engaging in combat.
Lin Feng successfully landed a surprise punch on Liu Fei. Although Liu Fei tried to dodge, Lin Feng still managed to hit him in the chest. While it didn't incapacitate Liu Fei immediately, it certainly inflicted significant damage.
"Looks like my sneaky tactics paid off. Liu Bangzhu, I didn't expect us to meet in A City like this," Lin Feng said. Now that the surprise attack was over, his task was to stall Liu Fei and Hong Jin to create an opportunity for Liu Yanran to enter the Back Mountain. Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry to strike again; instead, he aimed to buy time by talking.
"Lin Feng, what are you doing here?" Hong Jin was surprised to see Lin Feng and even more shocked that Lin Feng had injured Liu Fei right away.
"Hehe... I'm a friend of the Liu Family. Why do you think I'm here? But you, Mr. Hong, what brings you here?" Lin Feng's current mission was to create confusion and delay the opponents. He felt relaxed enough to chat since they weren't attacking him; he wouldn't take the initiative either.
"Hmph... I was planning to deal with the Liu Family first before coming for you. I didn't expect you to deliver yourself right to my doorstep. Alright, Hong Laodi, let's team up and take care of Lin Feng first," Liu Fei said. Knowing he was injured, he had no choice but to seek help from Hong Jin. In his view, Lin Feng wouldn't escape tonight, so he felt free to express his malicious intentions.
"Oh, so it turns out Liu Bangzhu traveled all the way to A City just to deal with me? What an honor! But tell me, can you really handle me in your current state?" Upon hearing Liu Fei's words, Lin Feng realized that Liu Fei had long harbored ill intentions against him. He felt relieved that he had been cautious and hadn't brought Dong Jie out yet. However, now that it was clear they intended to confront him in A City, Lin Feng felt free to speak his mind without holding back.
"You... get him!" Liu Fei was infuriated by Lin Feng's words and felt pain in his chest again; his hatred for Lin Feng deepened as he signaled for an attack.
"Wait! I have something to say." Although Lin Feng saw them preparing to strike, he remained calm and raised his hand.
"What else is there?" Hong Jin surprisingly believed Lin Feng and halted his movements while asking.
In fact, Hong Jin really did not want to be enemies with Lin Feng here; his enemy was only the Liu Family, not Lin Feng. He had just seen how Lin Feng had severely injured one of his top experts with a single move, which showed that Lin Feng's skills were extraordinary. He was also afraid of creating a strong enemy for no reason. If the Liu Family turned against him later, wouldn't the Hong Family be caught in a dilemma?
So, when he heard Lin Feng say "wait a moment," he immediately stopped. After all, unless absolutely necessary, he truly did not want to engage in a fight with Lin Feng.
"Don't fall for his trick; he's trying to buy time," Liu Fei shouted, knowing Lin Feng was quite adept at schemes.
"Hehe... You're really clever. What I wanted to say is that I have already secretly let Liu Yanran enter the Back Mountain, and now I will go in as well. Goodbye." Lin Feng did not expect the cooperation between Liu Fei and Hong Jin to be so fragile. However, seeing the pause in their reaction due to his words, he seized the opportunity to slip away quickly. This place was not somewhere he could linger; Lin Feng knew he would definitely be outmatched by this group of people. Although Liu Fei was already seriously injured, this guy hated him deeply and had followed him all the way from City B, a mid-level city. Therefore, he did not dare to take risks.
Lin Feng's ability to escape was also very strong. Moreover, the geographical position of where he was originally located was advantageous, being closer to the entrance of the Liu Family's grand formation than Liu Fei and the others. Thus, Lin Feng quickly passed through the grand formation and arrived at the Liu Family's Back Mountain.
Upon entering the Back Mountain, Lin Feng smiled as he looked at Liu Fei and the others outside with their faces full of anger. He laughed heartily; however, this grand formation allowed those inside to see outside while those outside could not see inside. Therefore, Liu Fei outside probably could not see Lin Feng's joyful expression.
But that was fine; at least Liu Fei would surely get angry again upon seeing Lin Feng's smug face, leading to another sharp pain in his chest.
"Hehe... You are all here?" Lin Feng turned around and noticed that Liu Yanran and her Grandpa were present. Seeing Liu Yanran's blushing face made him feel a bit shy as he casually said.
"Hehe... Yes, thank you Mr. Lin for your help," Liu Lao said happily upon seeing Lin Feng.
"You're welcome. Besides, Liu Fei just mentioned that he came to City A specifically to deal with me; it’s actually my fault that I brought trouble to the Liu Family," Lin Feng naturally could not accept Liu Lao's gratitude. He estimated that Liu Fei had teamed up with the Hong Family against the Liu Family precisely because of him.
"Mr. Lin doesn't need to be polite; we are all on the same side after all, so it's only right for us to join forces," Liu Lao said with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, Liu Yanran, here is your jade stone back." Lin Feng looked at the jade stone in his hand and realized that Liu Yanran had been staring at it all along. Thinking she might feel awkward asking for it back, he quickly handed it over to her.
Lin Feng thought about it; this jade stone was proof for entering and exiting the Liu Family's Back Mountain. If he kept it for himself, wouldn’t that mean he could enter and exit as if it were his own backyard? So he didn’t find it strange that Liu Yanran wanted to reclaim her jade stone; it felt quite natural.
Liu Yanran looked at the jade stone in Lin Feng's hand but wasn’t thinking about asking for it back; instead, she recalled how she had made a "kissing" gesture when handing her personal jade stone to him. Originally, it had hung around her neck but was now in Lin Feng’s hand, causing her heart to race a little.
However, she realized she quite liked this feeling.
"No need; Mr. Lin is not an outsider. Just keep this jade stone," at this moment, Liu Lao quickly spoke on behalf of Lin Feng. He wished for nothing more than for Lin Feng to accept the jade stone because that would bring their relationship even closer. He still hadn’t given up on maintaining a close relationship between Lin Feng and the Liu Family.
"How can I accept this?" Lin Feng thought the other person was just being polite and quickly refused.
"I don't understand why you're acting like this. I've already given it to you," Liu Yanran said, feeling a bit upset as Lin Feng continued to push it away.
"Uh..." Lin Feng was genuinely confused this time. Earlier, he noticed Liu Yanran staring at the piece of jade in his hand, thinking she wanted him to return it quickly. But now, she seemed a bit angry because he refused to accept the jade. Did she actually want him to take it?
Wait a minute, Lin Feng realized that although Liu Yanran looked exasperated when she said that, her expression resembled someone who had given a gift to their crush only to be rejected.
What was going on? Although Lin Feng had this realization, he still couldn't understand. He remembered that he and Liu Yanran had only met a few times, and their last parting had been somewhat unpleasant. Why did her expression suddenly seem to convey something else?
"Oh, I'll accept it." However, despite having these thoughts, Lin Feng still didn't dare to confirm anything. He preferred to believe that Liu Yanran didn't have such intentions and that he was overthinking. His ideal girlfriend was the kind of virtuous beauty, not someone like Liu Yanran, a wealthy young lady.
Moreover, Lin Feng was currently facing his arch-nemesis, Qian Bang. Now that he had openly torn the facade with Qian Bang, he planned to grow stronger before seeking revenge. He knew that Liu Fei would not give him the chance to grow slowly.
This was also why Lin Feng had struck Liu Fei mercilessly earlier; since he no longer intended to endure, he naturally attacked decisively.
"By the way, Liu Lao, how do you plan to handle this matter?" Since Lin Feng was now cooperating with the Liu Family, he needed to discuss how to break through. This was Liu Family territory, and they surely knew things he didn't. Overall, Lin Feng felt that asking Liu Lao was the right move.
"Well, Mr. Lin, you've already injured that person named Liu Fei. Although we have one Inner Strength Expert injured on our side as well, I believe our combat power is still quite strong compared to theirs. In my opinion, we can go out and fight," Liu Lao carefully compared the strength of both sides. He felt frustrated after being forced into the Liu Family's Back Mountain earlier but now wanted to turn the tide and counterattack.
