127: Lu An'an is in crisis! She's furious!

Feng Ming chuckled, "You're not bad yourself!"

"However, if it's just you alone, you probably won't be able to deal with me."

The Old Man in Black Robe snorted coldly upon hearing this.

"Words are meaningless!"

"Today, you shall die!"

With those words, the Old Man in Black Robe charged at Feng Ming once again.

However, this time Feng Ming stood his ground and did not move.

Looking at the Old Man in Black Robe, he spoke with a smile, "I'll give those words right back to you."

Feng Ming didn't make a move; instead, he spoke to the air, "Brother Huainian, it's your turn to act."

No kidding.

Although he wanted to test his own strength,

He wasn't foolish enough to waste time here.

After all, time was tight; he was in a hurry to go to the Sect and had to finalize the matters regarding the shop.

Of course, there was another reason: there was free labor available, and it would be a waste not to use it.

As Feng Ming's voice fell, the Old Man in Black Robe's expression darkened.

"What? Ye Feng?"

Almost simultaneously, another old man dressed in grey robes rushed over quickly.

And behind him, there was actually a young man in armor—who else could it be but Ye Feng!

As soon as Ye Feng arrived, he looked at Feng Ming and gave a helpless laugh.

"You really are confident. Weren't you worried that if I came late, your life would be in danger?"

Feng Ming laughed, "These two might be strong, but they're only so-so. I'm not made of glass; I'm confident I can survive."

"On the other hand, can you handle this?"

Ye Feng smiled, "They're just Golden Core Stage experts; they don't affect me much. Relatively speaking, I'm more curious about how you knew I was coming."

Feng Ming shook his head with a smile, "There's not much to guess. This is a street in Qingyang City. If anything happens, the City Lord is the one responsible. He definitely doesn't want to take the blame, so he must have sent you to protect me in the shadows long ago."

Ye Feng looked at him with admiration, "As expected of Jeff, you truly haven't missed a single detail."

Hearing this, Feng Ming couldn't help but smile.

Ever since Lu An'an gave him the courtesy name Jeff, he had been called 'Brother-in-law' by the City Lord's confidants every day. The feeling was truly... Ye Feng was the City Lord's man, and since the City Lord had arranged for him to follow, he naturally wouldn't ignore him.

One could even say he was protecting from the shadows and would strike when necessary.

Of course, this didn't mean the City Lord valued him that much; rather, he wanted to use him as bait to catch the Huangfu Family red-handed.

To find a Breakthrough to deal with the Huangfu Family.

And now, that opportunity had arrived.

These two were not weak; they were clearly no ordinary people.

As long as they could capture one—or even just a corpse—it would be of great use.

At the very least, it would be difficult for the Huangfu Family to wash their hands of this matter.

Ye Feng glanced at the attire of the two.

He had some suspicions in his heart.

Qingyang City was only so big, with only so many powers. They knew exactly which powers were involved and what their relationship with the Huangfu Family was.

Even if the opponents wore black robes and black veils, they could still make some guesses.

Of course, the prerequisite was to capture them; otherwise, the charges would be hard to prove.

This location wasn't very far from the Feng Family's Medicinal Pill shop. As soon as the fighting started, it immediately attracted many onlookers.

Seeing this, Ye Feng said with a smile, "Still not going to make a move?"

"Once the people from the Patrol Camp arrive, you'll have even less of a chance!"

The Two Elders of Chi Mei glanced at each other, thinking that this was indeed the case.

So they truly began to fight.

Ye Feng was one of Lu Zhenfeng's men.

He was also in charge of the security of Qingyang City.

If he said the patrol was almost here, then they really were.

The two of them attacked Ye Feng from the left and right.

At the moment of the outburst, two streams of black Qi swirled around The Two Elders of Chi Mei.

The aura was so strong that many passersby couldn't help but gasp.

"Good heavens, they're clearly here for Feng Ming's life. This is way too strong."

"Feng Ming just had a Breakthrough to the Golden Core, yet he's encountered two people so much stronger than him. They are definitely determined to kill him."

"But who on earth sent them?"

"Hmph, can't you tell who sent them?"

"Could it be the Huangfu..."

The onlookers didn't dare to say any more.

Some things were clear to everyone, but they could only be understood without being voiced.

After all, the consequences of speaking out were completely different from keeping it to oneself.

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng was locked in combat with the two black-robed men.

After only two exchanges, Ye Feng confirmed their identities.

"It's you, The Two Elders of Chi Mei?"

"Very well. Just how much benefit did the Huangfu Family give you for you to risk your lives for them?"

The Two Elders of Chi Mei naturally wouldn't admit it. One of the old men spoke up.

"Lord Ye, you talk too much. We don't know any 'Two Elders of Chi Mei,' but we've heard that Lord Ye's strength is extraordinary. We brothers would like to exchange a few pointers with you."

Ye Feng sneered, "Heh, whether you know them or not isn't for you to say. Wait until I tear off those black robes, then you can explain."

The Two Elders of Chi Mei were startled. "We didn't expect you to be this kind of Lord Ye. Tearing our clothes is a bit too much."

Ye Feng didn't care about any of that; as he spoke, a long spear appeared in his hand.

It was like a surging silver Dragon, its momentum terrifying.

The two black-robed men weren't afraid at all, charging at Ye Feng from both sides.

However, their strength was ultimately no match for Ye Feng's.

A Golden Core Stage against a Nascent Soul Stage has no chance of winning; numbers don't matter here.

At the very least, one or two of them had no impact on a Nascent Soul.

The result wouldn't be any different.

Although they were working together and had both reached the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm,

They gained no advantage at all in front of Ye Feng. With a flick of the Silver Spear in Ye Feng's hand, the black mist surrounding The Two Elders of Chi Mei was instantly dispersed.

Then, the Silver Spear thrust toward one of them in an instant.

A cold gleam shot out from the Silver Spear, striking toward the black-robed old man on the left.

The black-robed man couldn't dodge in time and watched helplessly as the Silver Spear pierced his shoulder, blood splattering across the ground instantly.

"Brother, go quickly!"

The black-robed man grabbed Ye Feng's Silver Spear and shouted to the other black-robed man, "Brother, go!"

They had come to kill Feng Ming; there was no need to stay and fight with Ye Feng.

Besides, the gap in strength was so large that it was impossible to fight.

It would be too much of a loss to lose their lives for someone who wasn't their target.

Hearing this, the Old Man in Black Robe looked at Feng Ming, seemingly unwilling to give up just like that.

Ye Feng naturally noticed this and immediately attacked with his spear.

In his desperation, the old man in black could only grit his teeth and flee.

He grabbed the injured black-robed man and turned to run.

"Go!"

Immediately, the two of them turned to escape.

Ye Feng had finally caught an opportunity; how could he let them leave?

With a violent swing of the Silver Spear in his hand, several cold gleams flew out, forming a web of light in mid-air that swept toward the two of them.

Seeing the situation was dire, the Old Man in Black Robe's eyes turned cold, and he instantly threw out a black dagger.

However, the dagger's target was neither Ye Feng nor Feng Ming, who was watching from the sidelines.

Instead, it was aimed toward the crowd, flying through the air.

At this, both Feng Ming and Ye Feng were bewildered.

What's going on?

Can't even aim the attack properly?

But this direction is completely wrong, isn't it?

In the next moment, Ye Feng realized.

The place the Old Man in Black Robe was attacking wasn't the crowd at all, but the Medicinal Pill shop opposite them.

And his target was Lu An'an, who was inside the shop.

And at this moment, on the second floor of the shop,

Lu An'an was watching them anxiously, but instead of seeing the battle end, she saw a dagger flying straight at her.

Seeing the distance closing in, Lu An'an stood frozen in place, completely forgetting to react.

"Jeff, stop that dagger!"
