105: An'an, welcome back

Huangfu He dismissed the concern, "They are both Golden Core Realm Experts. Dealing with a Peak Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Lu Zhenfeng won't be guarding Feng Ming at all times, and even Ye Feng has times when he isn't by his side. Our Huangfu Family has no way out now. If Feng Ming doesn't die, we will."

"His Medicinal Pill prices are so low that our Huangfu Family has no way to survive in Qingyang City. We must eliminate him; he must be removed."

Huangfu Qing came to his senses and sighed helplessly.

Who would have thought that a small Feng Family would be a hornet's nest? Not only were they stung all over after poking it, but they also had no path of retreat.

...

On the main road to Qingyang City, Lu An'an exclaimed upon hearing the news.

"What did you say? Father didn't make it in time?"

The delay in relaying messages was truly time-consuming.

By the time Feng Ming received the news, it was already evening.

When the messenger said that Lu Zhenfeng had arrived a step too late, Feng Ming sighed.

Ye Feng looked anxious.

"Jeff, is there any way to remedy this? Opportunities like this are truly rare!"

Feng Ming shook his head.

"The Huangfu Family's trap was meant to catch the thief with the loot. If the City Lord didn't make it in time, there's nothing we can do to the Huangfu Family."

"Not to mention we haven't even reached Qingyang City yet; we are too far away to help. This matter is unsolvable."

After saying this, Feng Ming remarked with emotion.

"Although we didn't catch them, the Huangfu Family killing so many Guest Elders is undoubtedly cutting off their own arm. That alone should make them feel the pain."

Ye Feng sighed helplessly upon hearing this. Although they had caused the Huangfu Family some trouble, the damage was limited. After all, the Foundation of the Huangfu Family was still intact.

Moreover, after this incident, the Huangfu Family would definitely be more cautious if they took action again. It would be even harder to find such an opportunity next time.

Feng Ming didn't say anything further about this.

After all, man proposes, God disposes. He had already provided the correct speculation.

However, the slow transmission of information was something no one could avoid.

It wasn't that Feng Ming hadn't asked Lu An'an about long-distance communication devices or sound-transmitting stones, but the answer he got was that only the top brass of the Dynasty had them.

They were expensive and cost a fortune.

But through this incident, Feng Ming became even more certain of how important a complete information network was.

Personal strength is ultimately just personal. If he wants to develop a Family in this cultivation world of the Bright Moon Dynasty, where true long-distance communication does not exist, an information network is indispensable!

"It seems I also need to consider developing my own information network!" Feng Ming said to himself.

He certainly didn't fear anything with his System.

But living in this world, it is hard to detach from Family, love, brotherhood, and so on.

If he wanted his Family to grow under his protection, an information network was absolutely essential.

It was just that the Feng Family was currently not qualified to build its own information network. Not to mention anything else, the expenses alone would be astronomical.

Feng Ming thought that he would talk about this after settling down in Qingyang City.

At this moment, Feng Ming somewhat understood why Feng Mian couldn't make it back in time for the wedding.

From Liumian Prefecture to Qingyang City, with Ye Feng's escort, it took several days without any delays.

When his eldest brother traveled, there were only Huangfu Jing and Lu Qianqian leading the team, and Huangfu Jing had to go do bad things along the way. It would be strange if they hadn't been delayed.

However, everything happens for a reason.

If his eldest brother hadn't been delayed so long on the road, he would never have been able to marry such a good wife as Shuwan.

Therefore, everything is heaven's arrangement.

The night passed without incident.

The next morning, just past noon.

Feng Ming saw a city rising from the ground right in front of the group, at the end of the main road.

The scale and grandeur of this city were far beyond what Liumian Prefecture could compare to.

Even from a distance, they could see several main roads extending towards Qingyang City.

Among these main roads, one was the widest and largest, and it was also the one with the most people coming and going.

Lu An'an pointed to that main road and said.

"That is the road leading to Liangzhou City, which is why it is built so grandly!"

Feng Ming realized upon hearing this.

As the core city of the entire Liang Province, only this city could match such a main road.

However, while sighing, Feng Ming hurriedly called for Feng Da.

"Go and notify Grandfather and the others. After entering the city, do not wander around freely. Go directly to the Feng Family's residence; otherwise, there may be a risk to your lives!"

Feng Da nodded and hurried to pass on the message.

Lu An'an also hurriedly said.

"Now that we are about to arrive at Qingyang City, you should use whatever method you have to stop the Huangfu Family from taking action, right? Otherwise, once we enter the city, it will truly be like entering a tiger's den!"

Feng Ming smiled and said.

"Don't I have you? Your father is the City Lord, and I can be considered the City Lord's future son-in-law. Would the Huangfu Family dare to touch the City Lord's son-in-law?"

Lu An'an looked worried and was in no mood to joke with Feng Ming.

"I am serious. Even with my father, it is impossible for him to protect you and so many people in the Feng Family at all times."

Feng Ming smoothed her furrowed brows, "Alright, don't worry. Since I dared to come, I definitely have a way. I won't trouble Father-in-law."

Lu An'an rolled her eyes at Feng Ming helplessly and didn't say anything more.

She believed in Feng Ming's ability; since he said so, he must have a way to deal with the Huangfu Family.

The group arrived at the city gate, and the procession stopped. The team recruiting Disciples returned to the Lingxiao Sect to report.

Ye Feng did not go personally but ordered his deputy to escort the Disciples to the Sect.

As the team leader, Lu Qianqian naturally had to go back.

Before leaving, she gave Feng Ming a reminder.

"Young Master Feng, please be sure to report to the Lingxiao Sect within a week, otherwise, it will be considered an automatic withdrawal. Of course, you have Alchemy skills, I will report this matter as well; perhaps you might even have a chance to become an Elder."

Feng Ming smiled and nodded.

He didn't care whether he could become an Elder, but he thought the free medicinal herbs of the Lingxiao Sect were quite nice!

Just as Lu Qianqian's group was preparing to leave, Huangfu Jing walked out of the team with Huangfu Yunyan.

Apparently, they were not going to the Sect now.

Huangfu Yunyan glanced at Feng Ming, her expression devoid of any ripples, and her gaze didn't even linger for too long.

Feng Ming didn't intend to take her seriously either.

Just as he was about to head to the residence prepared by the Feng Family, a person suddenly rushed out from the crowd.

They were holding fresh flowers in their hands.

The young man looked expectant and, without caring about the eyes of the people around him, walked straight up to Lu An'an.

And Lu An'an was clearly stunned when she saw the young man.

The young man stopped in front of Lu An'an and then handed the flowers in his hand over.

"Anan, welcome back!"

"I have missed you to death!"
