Chapter 571 - A Toad lusting after a Swan

n

n

n

n

nLiu Feng was happy to see that happen.

n

nEveryone knew that the city Lord doted on his youngest son, ye Zilong, the most.

n

nEven a fool could see the intention of grooming him to become the next city Lord.

n

nIt was a good thing for Liu Rui and the Liu family to be close.

n

nEven though Liu Feng knew that Liu Rui and those people were all fair-weather friends.

n

nHowever, fair-weather friends were still friends!

n

nAs long as the “ye” flag on the top of White Cloud City remained standing, the relationship between Liu Rui and ye Zilong would still be worth maintaining.

n

nHowever, Liu Feng felt a little strange. It had only been two or three days since Liu Rui last returned home.

n

nHe ran out of silver so quickly?

n

nThen, Liu Feng recalled that ye Zilong had pulled the great-grandson of the old ancestor of dynasty into their little circle through some means.

n

nPerhaps that young master Ma came from the Imperial City and played more high-end games, so his spending was higher.

n

nLiu Feng nodded and decided to give Liu Rui more money this time. He had to serve that young master Ma well.

n

nOne day of enlightenment, and his chickens and dogs would rise to the heavens.

n

nIf Liu Rui could get close to young master Ma, the Liu family might be able to rise to the top with the help of the dynasty’s elder.

n

nWhile Liu Feng was thinking about this, Liu Rui had already walked into the side hall.

n

nWhen he saw Lin anruo, he looked as if he had been struck by lightning. His mouth was half-open, and his eyes were so wide that they were about to pop out of their sockets.

n

nLiu Feng was about to take out some silver when he saw Liu Rui’s expression. His heart trembled.

n

nMy little ancestor!

n

nIt didn’t matter who you took a fancy to, but Lin anruo was the exclusive property of the powerful and influential courtiers. She was the person whom even the most powerful and influential courtiers didn’t dare to stand up for the Lin family.

n

nNot to mention the Liu family, even the city Lord’s mansion would have to kneel if they were to be tainted by such a source of trouble!

n

nHowever, Liu Feng had misunderstood Liu Rui this time.

n

nThe reason why he had lost his composure in front of Lin anruo was because …

n

nA small part of it was indeed because Lin anruo’s looks were like that of a heavenly being.

n

nThe other reason was because he had seen Lin anruo before.

n

nAt the South City gate, he was with ye Zilong and a few others to welcome Ma Yuan into the city.

n

nHe saw with his own eyes how Ma Yuan had approached Lin anruo to strike up a conversation, only to have his dantian destroyed by a random guy who had appeared out of nowhere.

n

nAfter that, ye Zilong brought Ma Yuan and rushed back to the city Lord’s mansion. Liu Rui and the others also lost their interest in going to the brothel.

n

nAfter disbanding on the spot, they were supposed to return to their respective homes.

n

nLiu Rui, on the other hand, went to the black gold Pavilion and watched a great show before returning to the Liu residence in satisfaction.

n

nAs soon as she arrived home, a servant came over to report that two guests had come to the house.

n

nThat woman was like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.

n

nLiu Rui originally scoffed at them and thought that the servants knew what a fairy was.

n

nHowever, he recalled that he had seen the legendary Holy daughter of the Gu family in the mystic gold Pavilion.

n

nLiu Rui couldn’t help but feel tempted.

n

nThe Gu family’s Holy daughter was a fairy that even Ma Yuan could not reach.

n

nHe was just a spoiled second generation from a small family. If he had any thoughts about her, he would be like a Toad lusting after a Swan’s meat.

n

nSince he couldn’t eat swan meat, Liu Rui thought about eating sparrows and pheasants.

n

nWho would have thought that she would run over to take a look?

n

nHiss, it was actually this source of calamity that caused Ma Yuan’s dantian to be crippled!

n

n“Rui ‘er, what are you standing there for? this is your cousin, an RUO. Come and meet her!”

n

nLiu Feng emphasized the word “cousin”.

n

nHe wanted to remind Liu Rui not to have any ideas about Lin anruo, so as not to bring disaster to the Liu family.

n

nIt was true that Liu Rui was lustful, but he was not stupid.

n

nEven if Ma Yuan’s dantian had not been destroyed, he would not dare to lay a finger on a woman that Ma Yuan had taken a fancy to, even if she was stripped naked and presented to him.

n

nTherefore, he did not listen to Liu Feng’s warning at all.

n

nOn the other hand, Liu Rui’s face turned pale when he found out that Lin anruo had such a close relationship with the Liu family.

n

nIn his mind, Liu Rui could already imagine the fury that the Liu family would face from the dynasty’s ancestor.

n

nThe Liu family was finished!

n

nNo!

n

nThe Liu family was not finished yet!

n

nAs long as he could tie Lin anruo up in time and send her to young master Ma.

n

nWhen the time comes, I’ll ask ye Zilong to talk to the city Lord and plead for mercy for the Liu family. Maybe that old ancestor will be lenient!

n

nWith that in mind, Liu Rui ran into the hall.

n

nWith his cultivation in the spirit-refinement realm, he unleashed a heavy wave of spirit Qi in an attempt to suppress Lin anruo.

n

nLiu Feng’s pants were almost wet when he saw this scene.

n

nHe didn’t know what Liu Rui was up to.

n

nHe was about to attack Lin anruo.

n

nHowever, he thought of Liu Rui’s carefree attitude. What if he used too much force and Lin anruo ended up in trouble?

n

nIf that great God knew about it later, the Liu family would definitely be in deep trouble!

n

nLiu Feng didn’t have the time to think. He immediately made a move to protect Lin anruo.

n

nSomeone was faster than him!

n

nA cold snort came from behind Lin anruo.

n

nImmediately, an overbearing spiritual Qi tide with a royal aura that could suppress everything rolled up.

n

nLiu Rui’s spirit Qi was crushed as soon as it came into contact with the spirit Qi tide.

n

nFollowing that, the spiritual energy tide did not lose its momentum. It was as if it wanted to devour everything as it charged towards Liu Duan.

n

nThe person who attacked was none other than ping Xiu.

n

nAlthough his mind was immersed in the divine Dao technique, he did not ignore the movements of the outside world.

n

nHe reacted the moment Liu Rui made his move.

n

nFacing the lightning and fire, it was like the collapse of a River and the ocean, pressing down on the spiritual energy tide above his head.

n

nLiu Rui was suddenly filled with fear. His fragile mind was shrouded by an unprecedented aura of death.

n

n“Do not hurt my son!”

n

nSuddenly, a familiar shout rang out as the cavalry charged forward.

n

nAs the sound exploded in Liu Rui’s ears, it also woke him up.

n

nSeeing Liu Feng’s figure in front of him, the Qi of the sea of consciousness realm turned into an invisible mountain wall, blocking the violent tide of spiritual Qi.

n

nOnly then did Liu Rui get rid of the aura of death that shrouded his mind.

n

nHowever, Liu Feng did not relax at all. Instead, he was extremely anxious.

n

nBecause the spiritual Qi tide came wave after wave, and every time it hit, it was like a raging wave hitting the shore, making his Qi movement unable to hold on for long.

n

nFurthermore, Liu Feng could clearly see that the spirit Qi tide was just a subconscious counterattack from the person behind Lin anruo.

n

nThe strength that he could display might only be one-thousandth of that person ‘s.

n

nHowever, even with his cultivation of level three sea of consciousness realm, he could not resist such a casual attack!

n

nWhat did this mean? the other party’s cultivation base was at least at the late sea of consciousness realm!

n

n“No wonder this girl dared to run back. She found a backer!”

n

nLiu Feng was enlightened, but at the same time, he felt a sense of regret.

n

nPreviously, he had placed all his attention on Lin anruo and neglected ping Xiu.

n

nOtherwise, if he had discovered ping Xiu’s strength earlier, he would not have ended up in this situation.

n

nIt was too late to say anything now. Liu Feng could only hope that the other party would not dare to start a massacre in the White Cloud City.

n

nOtherwise, the Liu family would be in grave danger today!

n

nHe was thinking.
