"Haha, Demoness, you're finally here. I've been waiting for quite a while!"
As soon as the Tiger King saw the Demoness arrive, he immediately led the people to greet her.
Seeing the mesmerizing Demoness up close, his eyes were filled with dancing flames, yet he deliberately put on an air of complete gentlemanly demeanor, stepping forward to shake hands with the Demoness.
The Demoness smiled faintly and politely shook hands with the Tiger King: "It's my fault for keeping the Tiger King waiting."
"Demoness, you're truly as elusive as a dragon's head and tail, always acting so mysteriously. Even meeting you once is not easy for me," the Tiger King said animatedly, holding onto the Demoness's hand and unwilling to let go.
"You flatter me, Tiger King. Our alliance is plagued with many affairs, demanding my constant attention. Inevitably, some things are overlooked. Isn't that why I came to visit tonight, to apologize?" the Demoness said with a soft smile, withdrawing her hand voluntarily.
As the cool little jade hand tactfully withdrew from the Tiger King's grip, the fire in his heart became even more uncontrollable!
Such a breathtaking beauty, still keeping a certain distance and guard against me. Just wait until you drink the strongest medicine from the black market, let's see how much longer you can keep up the act!
"Please, let's go inside and talk in detail," laughed the Tiger King.
"After you, Tiger King!" The Demoness, unaware that what awaited her ahead was a dragon pond and tiger cave, smiled lightly and walked alongside the Tiger King into the Yihu Alliance.
Behind them were a few trusted followers of the Demoness and those of the Tiger King's entourage, brought to show off his prestige.
Among them, entirely wrapped in black gauze, a mature beauty with an equally stunning figure, never leaving the Demoness's side, was the one who had cherished Shangguan Wan'er since young and was much revered by Dong Ruxue's women of the Demon Moon Alliance—the chief housekeeper, Kong Guyoulan!
"No, I can't let the Fox Master and Aunt Lan fall into the Tiger King's trap. I must stop them!"
Although Dong Ruyan did not know why the Fox Master and Aunt Lan were visiting the Yihu Alliance deep into the night, she certainly wasn't going to let the Tiger King's and others' conspiracy succeed!
She instinctively glanced once more in the direction where Jiang Feng had disappeared, only to find he was already nowhere in sight.
With no other choice, Dong Ruxue had to stealthily hunch her body, quietly tailing the Fox Master and their group.
...
Meanwhile, Jiang Feng, inside the Yihu Alliance as if nothing mattered, after dealing with several hidden sentries, quickly extracted the whereabouts of Young Master Silver Dragon from the mouth of one such sentry.
Without hesitation, he went directly to Silver Dragon's residence.
And Silver Dragon had just returned from Binhai not long ago.
The deaths of Hong Lu and Fen Xue rendered his mission a complete failure this time!
Which meant his goal of gaining distinction on this venture had fallen through.
Silver Dragon was filled with rage, intending to ask his father to send two elders north with him to take down Jiang Feng for revenge on Hong Lu and Fen Xue!
But his father had more important matters tonight and hadn't agreed in time.
Left with no choice, Silver Dragon had to endure it for now, biding his time.
But he was not idle either, with no outlet for his fury, he called over a few women he kept within the alliance, pressed them onto the bed, and vigorously vented for a while.
After exhausting a few beauties in a row, his anger was almost vented out, and he impatiently sent the women away, sitting alone on the bed, picking his teeth with great displeasure.
"Jiang Feng from Binhai, you're lucky, I'll let you live one more night, but no later than the day after tomorrow, I'll twist off your head and use it as a chamber pot!"
"Is that so?"
Just as he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly rose from behind his bed.
An uninvited guest, without him knowing, appeared inside his room!
Silver Dragon was initially stunned, then somewhat confused turned his head, looking at the ghostly figure and asked, startled, "Who are you?!"
At this moment, his first reaction was wondering if it was an illusion—how could someone silently sneak into headquarters?
And the other's strange, indifferent demeanor made the hairs on his body stand on end!
"Weren't you just mumbling my name, Young Master Silver Dragon?" Jiang Feng asked expressionlessly.
"Jiang Feng? You… you're Jiang Feng from Binhai?" Silver Dragon was almost scared out of his wits, looking at Jiang Feng in disbelief and trembling all over!
"How… how did you get here?" Silver Dragon was terrified: "What do you want?"
"Silver Dragon, I'll ask you one question: who hired you to go to Binhai to kill me? Tell me, and I'll leave you a complete corpse." Jiang Feng said coolly.
"You… you're dreaming!" Silver Dragon said viciously, being a big young master of the Yihu Alliance, naturally, he wouldn't break even the most basic assassin's rule. Immediately, he suddenly tried to shout, "Someone…"
However, before he could shout more than two words, Jiang Feng swiftly grabbed his neck with lightning speed!
Then, Jiang Feng effortlessly lifted Silver Dragon, dragging him from the bed and holding him in hand!
Silver Dragon struggled desperately but couldn't break free, he could only hang in the air, staring with fear-filled eyes at Jiang Feng!
He couldn't believe that with his Master Middle Stage strength, he was as powerless as an ant in Jiang Feng's hands!
"I'm giving you one last chance, will you talk or not?" Jiang Feng said coldly.
"Cough…I'll… I'll talk! I'll talk!" Silver Dragon said with difficulty. At this point, how dare he continue to disobey Jiang Feng, all principles thrown to the wind, almost wetting his pants with fear!
"It was… a businessman named Le Zhengyi from Binhai... contacted my father... he offered a high price... but I and my father thought you were just a small fish from Binhai... so they sent me to… make a performance..."
Le Zhengyi?!!
Jiang Feng was shocked upon hearing this!
He never expected that the one who acted against him was Le Zhengyi!
Thinking about Le Zhengyi, who had met him a few times and always treated him courteously, even siding with Zhou Rongfa and others on occasions.
Yet unexpectedly, he had secretly tried to harm him!
Could it be because I taught his son a lesson?
But that doesn't make sense!
In Binhai, he knew best the cost of provoking me, and his son was at fault initially, my action was already giving him face!
"Cough… I… I'm telling the truth… Jiang Feng… please… spare me…" Silver Dragon struggled more and more painfully as Jiang Feng squeezed him, begged desperately for mercy.
"I only said I'd leave you a complete corpse, not spare you."
With an expressionless face, Jiang Feng snapped Silver Dragon's throat with a click.
Then, he let go, dropping Silver Dragon's body on the ground, turning calmly to leave.
Soon after, a young servant girl came in delivering fruit to Silver Dragon: "Young Master, have some fruit..."
"Ah!!!!"
