"..."
Weng Zhiru was stunned.
He had indeed heard mention before that the uproar was for the sake of his wife.
But he had always thought it was just an excuse.
Who would risk offending such a colossal entity like Nanshan Residence for their wife?
Now.
Judging by his resolute expression, it seemed... it was sincerely for his wife...
"In any case, you should stop immediately!"
Weng Zhiru said anxiously, reminding him, "If you continue like this, you'll only be on a path to death, even the Dragon Bureau can't protect you!"
"I never intended to rely on the Dragon Bureau for protection, I just hope you don't protect Nanshan Residence." Qin Feng replied.
"..."
Weng Zhiru was speechless again.
The tone of this young man's words was truly arrogant!
"I'm warning you! I know you have some skills, but Nanshan Residence is not a place where you can act recklessly! Do you know the phrase 'South City Lion and Tiger'? There are two stone lions here that will easily crush you!"
Weng Zhiru said angrily.
Qin Feng pointed to the rubble on the ground and said, "The stone lions you mentioned have already been crushed by me."
"..."
Weng Zhiru looked at the rubble, unable to utter a word in his confusion.
The scattered stones faintly revealed half an eyeball, a part of an ear, a segment of a paw—
"This, this..."
He was utterly shocked, feeling as if in a dream, then raised his eyes towards the Nanshan Duke.
From the Nanshan Duke's furious expression.
Only then did he confirm that the stone lions were indeed destroyed by Qin Feng!
It's over, it's over...
Weng Zhiru felt a jolt in his heart.
The stone lions were a symbol of Nanshan Residence. Now that they were destroyed, what did that imply?
Today.
Qin Feng would not leave here alive!
"Lord!"
Weng Zhiru said solemnly to Nanshan Duke, "Please allow me to take him back, rest assured, our Dragon Bureau will give you a satisfactory explanation!"
No matter what, Qin Feng was newly appointed as the War God of the Dragon Bureau, and could not be allowed to die here.
The Nanshan Duke coldly snorted and said, "Old Weng, I made it clear to you on the phone, he must die today! If you protect him today, we, Nanshan Residence, will sever ties with the Dragon Bureau!"
"..."
Weng Zhiru furrowed his brows, looking troubled.
Nanshan Residence had indeed been a significant financial supporter of the Dragon Bureau over the years.
Of course.
Most support came in the form of promissory notes.
Even with those, the Dragon Bureau was deeply grateful to Nanshan Residence, especially in these chaotic times where fundraising is difficult; they couldn't even pay back a promissory note, let alone find someone willing to lend at high interest, as wars require a massive amount of funds!
If relations soured, the Dragon Bureau couldn't repay even a penny.
Moreover.
Both the Dragon Group and White Lion Group have members from Nanshan Residence.
Including one of the Five Great Generals.
If relations sour.
Whether they are willing to continue fighting for the Dragon Bureau remains uncertain.
And most importantly.
With internal and external troubles, there's a desire to avoid making another enemy.
The surface of Nanshan Residence is but a fraction of what they possess, with their own forces hidden in the Hidden World, if they side with an enemy against Huaxia, the Dragon Bureau would be even harder pressed.
Of course.
There's the most crucial point.
The Nanshan Duke himself is extraordinarily powerful.
If a fight breaks out here.
He doesn't trust Qin Feng to leave alive.
So.
Turning against Nanshan Residence is definitely not a good option!
"Lord."
Weng Zhiru sighed deeply and said, "After all, he is our Dragon Bureau's person, and I know you're very angry now, let me take him back, we will definitely give Nanshan Residence a satisfying answer, I can even first offer my 'Long Spear', and there will be compensation later!"
As he spoke.
He took out what looked like a bronze-colored tip of a "Long Spear"!
Though it appeared ancient.
Just one look, and it's clear, this is undoubtedly a Divine-level artifact!
The aura flowing from it is definitely not of ordinary quality!
"An Ancient Relic??"
The Heavenly River Taoist in the distance, upon seeing the tip of the spear, couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment.
Ancient relics do exist these days.
But those with such well-preserved power are truly rare!!
The value of such a treasure surpasses even the two stone lions containing Floating Light Stones!
The stone lions can guard.
But this spear tip can truly enhance one's personal strength, the stronger the individual, the more they can harness the power and aura contained within the ancient artifact!
Indeed!
The Nanshan Duke's eyes were momentarily caught by the flowing light of the spear tip.
He was not a rash person.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to develop Nanshan Residence over a hundred years.
After weighing the pros and cons.
The Nanshan Duke said to Weng Zhiru, "Since Old Weng you have spoken, everything can be discussed, but!"
He turned his furious gaze towards Qin Feng and said, "But he must apologize to my Nanshan Residence nationwide!!"
"That can be arranged..."
Weng Zhiru secretly sighed in relief.
As long as there's room to ease the situation, find a way to save Qin Feng first and negotiate compensations later.
He looked at Qin Feng.
Unexpectedly.
Qin Feng spread his hands and said, "Have you all misunderstood? I'm here to demand an apology from him, how did it turn into me apologizing?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Weng Zhiru almost spat out blood in frustration, feeling like he wanted to strangle him.
Despite the heartbreak, he offered the invaluable "spear tip" for peace, yet he's still so stubborn!
"You, you you..."
Weng Zhiru was so angry he didn't know what to say.
Qin Feng said to him, "Willing to hand over the 'spear tip' for me, I am very grateful, so I will not take any action against you, but I hope you don't stand in my way either."
Pfft—!!
Weng Zhiru felt his heart take another heavy blow.
Damn!!
I'm trying to save you out of kindness, yet from your words, it seems you even want to punch me??
Weng Zhiru was so angry his body trembled, wanting to curse Qin Feng.
But upon seeing the unwavering determination in Qin Feng's eyes.
He recalled Qin Feng's earlier words, saying that for his wife, even if the King of Heaven were to come, he would not be stopped... he was serious!
"Old head!"
Qin Feng stepped forward and said to the Nanshan Duke, "Today, if this matter isn't resolved, I will not leave!"
"Fine, very fine!!"
The Nanshan Duke was also seething with rage, never expecting that he'd be given a step back, yet he's being defiant.
If that's the case, then there's no need for courtesy!
"Boom—!!"
The Nanshan Duke's whole body trembled.
A tremendous power surged out from his body!
With him at the center, within a hundred meters, all buildings, all things, were pulverized into dust by this force!
The Huang Family Master and others had already fled to the distance.
Weng Zhiru and the Heavenly River Taoist struggled to circulate their aura to shield themselves from the force, avoiding being blown away.
"Is this power beyond the Ninth Grade Grandmaster!! Could he have become a Spirit King??"
Weng Zhiru murmured, furrowing his brow.
A century ago, the Nanshan Duke was already an unmatched genius, his cultivation and strength far exceeded his peers.
Since Nanshan Duke's emergence in the Mortal World, almost no one could rival him.
Let alone him!
