Lin Feng did not stay in the mercenary town for too long, as he still needed to return home to visit his family. Having joined the Jialan Academy for three years, he had not been home, and he missed his family dearly.
Lin Feng set off with the Fire Kirin, and after ten days, Lin Feng arrived at Dongcheng Town.
This Dongcheng Town was still three days' journey away from Qingyun Town, where Lin Feng's family lived.
Lin Feng planned to rest for a day in Dongcheng Town before continuing his journey.
Dongcheng Town was naturally far less bustling than the mercenary town and much smaller than Qingyun Town.
Qingyun Town, where the Lin family resided, was very close to the Wild荒 Jungle, so it was also a very lively town.
In recent years, the four major families of Qingyun Town had jointly petitioned to upgrade Qingyun Town to "Qingyun City," and the higher-ups seemed to be considering this matter.
As for Dongcheng Town, it was just an ordinary small town, neither close to the Wild荒 Jungle nor surrounded by valuable resources, so it was a place where travelers would temporarily rest during their journey.
Lin Feng and the Fire Kirin walked down the main street of Qingyun Town.
"I think we should find a place to have a big meal first, and then find a place to rest," the Fire Kirin said.
The Fire Kirin was quite a glutton. At the Mercenary Association, the kitchen became the Fire Kirin's battlefield, making the Mercenary Association's chefs want to cry. Because the food they had just prepared would disappear in the blink of an eye, stolen by the Fire Kirin, which once caused quite a commotion, with everyone spreading rumors that the Mercenary Association was haunted.
Lin Feng naturally would not refuse the Fire Kirin's small request; he was also hungry. Lin Feng said, "Then let's find a restaurant and have a good meal."
Lin Feng and the Fire Kirin headed toward a restaurant.
Ride, ride, ride...
At this moment, a group of more than ten people riding Xuanhuang Horses galloped down the street, causing a commotion.
Many people fled in a panic.
If someone was slow to dodge, these people would take out whips and lash them away.
Their methods were ruthless.
Many people suffered.
This group was extremely tyrannical.
"What kind of people are these? How can they be so lawless?" Lin Feng frowned and muttered.
Someone in the passing crowd heard Lin Feng's muttering and immediately turned grim.
"Brat, are you blind? You don't even recognize the Nalan family? To dare speak ill of the Nalan family behind their back is courting death!"
The young master directly lashed out at Lin Feng with his whip.
Snap, snap, snap, snap...
The whip in his hand, like a venomous snake, struck directly at Lin Feng's face.
"Click."
Lin Feng reached out and grabbed the whip that was lashing at him.
He said coldly, "Nalan family? The Nalan family in Qingyun Town?"
Qingyun Town had four major families!
They were the Lin family where Lin Feng was from, the Su family where Su Yuexi was from, the Wang family, and of course, the Nalan family, which could not be overlooked. The Nalan family was not simple; the Nalan family in Qingyun Town was just a branch, with the main branch being one of the ten major families in Jialan City, the Nalan family.
With the backing of the Nalan family, the Nalan family in Qingyun Town was the most powerful, often requiring the Lin family, Su family, and Wang family to join forces to counter the Nalan family.
The Nalan family was ambitious, wanting to吞并 the other three families and completely control Qingyun Town, as Qingyun Town was a key stronghold leading to the Wild荒 Jungle, which was of great importance. Controlling Qingyun Town meant controlling a treasure trove of wealth, as Qingyun Town was also a hub for countless mercenaries and adventurers. These mercenaries and adventurers often brought out large quantities of items from the Wild荒 Jungle, such as medicinal herbs, fierce beast corpses, and even treasures found in the caves of cultivators.
"You, a mere brat, know the Nalan family and still dare to resist? Do you want to die? Release the whip, kneel down, and apologize, and I might spare you. Otherwise, you'll know the miserable consequences of offending me!"
The young master said coldly.
Lin Feng knew the young members of the Nalan family, but he did not recognize this person, so he guessed it might be a relative of the Nalan family.
Lin Feng was not afraid of the Nalan family, let alone the offspring of a mere relative.
"The Nalan family is a major family. Is this how they teach their young to behave?" Lin Feng said coldly.
"You, a nobody, dare to lecture the Nalan family on how to act? Do you want to die?" The young master's face turned fierce.
"With your group of废物, I doubt you can do anything to me. Today, I will teach the Nalan family's descendants a lesson."
Lin Feng laughed coldly and snatched the long whip from the other's hand.
Snap!
Lin Feng lashed out with the whip, striking the young master directly.
A bloody mark immediately appeared.
"Ah!" The young master screamed and was lashed away by Lin Feng's whip.
"Good hit!" Many people around cheered loudly.
Those who follow the righteous path have many helpers, while those who stray from it have few. This was a perfect example.
These people's arrogant and tyrannical behavior naturally made them hated.
What Lin Feng did made many people feel satisfied.
"Sir, are you alright?" The others quickly dismounted to help the young master who had been hit.
"Are you all dead? Didn't you see that I was hit? Attack, grab this brat, and I'll make him wish he were dead!"
The young master roared with venom, his narrow eyes filled with hatred as he glared at Lin Feng.
"Yes, sir!"
Following the young master's order, his dozen guards rushed toward Lin Feng, each looking fierce and menacing.
The Fire Kirin covered his eyes and said, "Blinding, blinding, a bunch of废物, just relying on the power of others."
But clearly, these guards did not think so. Could a group of them not handle a single teenager?
"You, a mere brat, dare to hit our young master? Have you eaten a bear's heart and a leopard's gall?"
The guards laughed menacingly and quickly rushed toward Lin Feng.
Boom...
All dozen guards attacked, aiming to kill Lin Feng.
As long as they could capture Lin Feng, they did not care if he lived or died.
"Brother, run quickly. These people are the Nalan family's relatives. The Nalan family is not someone you can offend easily."
Someone in the crowd kindly warned Lin Feng.
"No need."
Lin Feng responded softly.
Then, he looked at the dozen guards, his face cold. "Aiding the wicked, you deserve to be punished."
Swish!
Lin Feng moved.
Everyone only saw a blur flash before their eyes.
Slap, slap, slap...
With a series of loud slaps, the guards who had been committing evil deeds were all sent flying.
All dozen of them screamed in pain, their faces smashed by Lin Feng's slaps, bones exposed, and they fell heavily to the ground, clutching their heads and wailing in agony.
