Chapter 9

Inside and outside the main hall of the Liu residence, the crowd of heroes was stunned into silence, with many eyes fixed on the middle-aged man who had just walked in. This man was in his forties, of medium build, with two thin mustaches above his upper lip.

This man was none other than one of the Thirteen Protectors of Songshan, the famous Great Songyang Hand Fei Bin.

Just now, Fei Bin had thrown a hidden weapon from outside the door, intending to force Liu Zhengfeng to retreat and knock the basin out of his hands, preventing him from washing his hands and retiring. However, he did not expect Liu Zhengfeng to not only dodge but also wash his hands in one swift move, which made Fei Bin's face turn sour.

On the other side, Liu Zhengfeng slowly withdrew his hand from the basin and clasped his hands together, saying, "Master Brother Fei, why don't you come in for a cup of wine instead of hiding on the roof, enduring the sun? There must be other experts from the Songshan Sect here. Please all come out. To deal with me, Liu Zhengfeng, one person like Master Brother Fei is more than enough. But to deal with so many heroes here, the Songshan Sect might be lacking."

"Humph!"

Fei Bin snorted coldly, his face turning even more sour. They had originally planned to capture Liu Zhengfeng's family and force him to tell the truth, but now... the backyard of the Liu residence was completely empty, even the servants had disappeared. Fei Bin knew that Liu Zhengfeng must have received some news, otherwise, this situation would not have occurred. But who had leaked the information? Could there be a spy from the Hengshan Sect in the Songshan Sect?

Fei Bin thought to himself and then said coldly, "Master Brother Liu, your words are truly impressive! But how do you explain your association with the demon sect member Qu Yang?"

The crowd was in an uproar, each person looking at Liu Zhengfeng with shock and suspicion. They had already been puzzled by why Liu Zhengfeng was retiring, thinking it was due to the rumors that he was forced by Mo Da. But now, hearing Fei Bin's words, it seemed he had an association with the demon sect elder Qu Yang.

"Master Brother Fei, you speak such evil words without any evidence, isn't that too much?" Ding Yi, with his fiery temper, immediately spoke up. The others, upon hearing this, felt it was reasonable and looked at Fei Bin.

Fei Bin's face turned even more sour. Where did they have any evidence? Witnesses? Yes, someone had seen Liu Zhengfeng with Qu Yang, but that person was from the Songshan Sect. How could he be considered a witness? If they had solid evidence, they wouldn't have needed to capture Liu Zhengfeng's family to force him.

Thinking of this, Fei Bin's face turned green, and Bai Xiaosheng in the crowd secretly rejoiced. In the world of "Sword of the Smiling, Proud Wanderer," these thirteen protectors were detestable, and now it was satisfying to see them embarrassed!

He looked around. In the story, it wasn't just Fei Bin who had come; there were also Tuo Ta Hand Ding Mian and Xianhe Hand Lu Bai. But so far, neither of them had shown up. It seemed they also knew that capturing Liu Zhengfeng today was impossible.

As Bai Xiaosheng had thought, without hostages, Liu Zhengfeng would not be foolish enough to admit his association with Qu Yang, and the Songshan Sect had no evidence, so they could only make a fool of themselves.

In the end, Fei Bin, with a sour face, led the Songshan Sect disciples away, and the crowd fell silent, unsure of what to say. Liu Zhengfeng thanked everyone, and they all got up to leave.

After such a commotion, everyone was secretly puzzled. People like Tian Men and Ding Yi did not believe that Liu Zhengfeng would associate with the demon sect member Qu Yang, but Yue Buqun was different. This man was extremely calculating. Upon hearing Fei Bin's words, he immediately believed them because he understood his opponent.

If Zuo Lengshan did not have evidence, he would not come so openly but would secretly eliminate you, as he did with the Hengshan Sect. But with evidence, he would naturally want the Songshan Sect to gain face. Unfortunately, their evidence was insufficient, and they had no hostages, so this attempt to gain face had backfired.

However, Yue Buqun was still concerned about Liu Zhengfeng's association with Qu Yang!

The busy day quickly passed, and by night, the lights in Liu Zhengfeng's courtyard were extinguished one by one, and the shadows in the rooms merged into the darkness. At this time, the Liu residence was almost empty, with only Liu Zhengfeng and a few servants left. But if you could see the scene in Liu Zhengfeng's bedroom, you would be greatly surprised. In the room, there was not only Liu Zhengfeng but also a man, who was none other than the demon sect elder Qu Yang!

In the room, Liu Zhengfeng relaxed, and Qu Yang also looked relieved. He said, "Fortunately, someone sent a message, or I would have endangered your family. I never thought that the Songshan Sect, as the leader of the Five Mountains, would be so ruthless."

Liu Zhengfeng shook his head and said, "Indeed! The person who left the message said that Zuo Lengshan wants to merge the five sects, which seems to be true."

Qu Yang laughed and said, "What? Are you worried about the Hengshan Sect?"

Liu Zhengfeng nodded and said, "I owe much to the Hengshan Sect. Now that it is in crisis, I cannot stand idly by. I wrote a letter this afternoon and had it sent out, hoping that Master Brother will receive it soon."

Hearing this, Qu Yang did
