Mu Feng’s face showed a faint smile, “How could you disappoint me? You performed very well this time.”
“If it weren’t for you luring them out, there might have been bigger trouble.”
“Besides, I believe you’ve heard some of what happened before. I’ve already left methods on them. You don’t need to worry about future matters, and they probably won’t find you.”
Hearing this, Deng Haiming breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid Mu Feng would make him go forward and cause more trouble. He didn’t want to be cannon fodder in the vortex anymore.
After witnessing the power of those people, he understood the gap.
Mu Feng smiled faintly, “Your injuries have also healed considerably. You can go back now.”
“If you encounter any unsolvable difficulties next time.”
Deng Haiming’s face showed excitement. Was Mu Feng still planning to help him?
Then he heard Mu Feng smile slightly, “Don’t call me again. Our relationship isn’t at that point yet. Your troubles have nothing to do with me. I’m only saving you today because you were caught in this vortex.”
“Seeing you pitiful, I saved your life. Don’t come to me next time something happens.”
“I dislike trouble the most.”
“Understand?”
Deng Haiming’s expression turned stiff, his lips twitching uncontrollably. He replied awkwardly, “Yes, I absolutely won’t dare to trouble you again next time.”
“No matter what happens, I’ll stay as far away as possible.”
Mu Feng smiled faintly, “Alright, you can go now.”
Deng Haiming’s injuries had been healed, but as he walked out, he felt an exceptionally heavy mood.
He originally thought that becoming the head of the Deng family meant he would be invincible, but he never expected to be drawn into such a vortex.
There was even a possibility that those people would return to trouble him. He now had an urgent desire to escape.
At this moment, in the Du family’s villa.
Du Weicai stood there respectfully, his gaze filled with humility and flattery.
“That’s the situation. The bodyguards who went with Mr. Zhang told me, and these people have already been scared away.”
After speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to meet the gaze of the person in front of him.
The person looked to be in his forties, his eyes calm, his expression indifferent.
He stood there wearing simple coarse cloth, as ordinary as a village farmer. If one met him outside, no one would give him a second glance, yet this person made Du Weicai act so cautiously.
Zhang Qianshan walked over directly and, looking at the expression in his subordinate’s eyes, furrowed his brow.
“What exactly do you want to tell me? I see anxiety and fear in your eyes.”
“Is there something important you want to say?”
He couldn’t guess his subordinate’s thoughts. Normally, his death warriors did as he said, and he never cared about their feelings.
As he approached, the expression in the subordinate’s eyes became even stranger.
This made him unable to guess. After hesitating, he spoke directly, “Let me first check your condition.”
“If only your acupoints were sealed, I can help you unseal them.”
“It’s best if your ability to speak can be directly restored. I really want to know what happened back then.”
But as his hand touched his subordinate’s pulse, his brow suddenly furrowed. He felt as if something had entered him, but upon closer inspection, he found nothing.
Soon, a smile appeared on his face, “So it’s just the most common acupoint sealing and vein blocking technique. It’s not a serious problem.”
“Now I can help you resolve the pain.”
“Bear with it!”
Even though his subordinate was incapacitated, it was still his personal matter. Having served him diligently for so long, he couldn’t just watch his subordinate suffer.
However, the moment he infused his internal energy into the acupoints.
He suddenly saw his subordinate’s eyes bulge, the red blood vessels rapidly spreading, as if unable to withstand some pressure.
He quickly withdrew his internal energy, but it was too late.
His eyes were filled with fury, “Mu Feng truly has skillful methods. Seemingly ordinary techniques hide such danger. You almost tricked me.”
“You won this round, but this is only the beginning.”
“I will make you regret everything you’ve done!”
Du Weicai also hurriedly spoke from the side, “Mu Feng’s strength may be great, but we are in the shadows while he is in the light.”
“And I am your dog. Whatever you ask me to do, I will execute it immediately without reservation.”
“Mu Feng won’t kill me directly. He must have taken a liking to my daughter. My daughter has already gone with him. If he doesn’t want to be resented by my daughter later, he absolutely cannot make a move on me.”
“This is the courage I have to confront him. If you have any orders, I will…”
He was eager to show his loyalty, but before he could finish speaking, Zhang Qianshan suddenly trembled.
Following that, Zhang Qianshan’s body shook as if it were a sieve.
“What’s wrong with you?” he asked instinctively.
Then he found Zhang Qianshan turn his head, his eyes filled with immense killing intent.
“You dare to harm me!”
An angry roar erupted from his mouth.
Du Weicai shivered, his eyes filled with terror, “How could I harm you? You are the one helping me, and I am always a loyal servant helping you.”
“Besides, we have no enmity between us.”
“Why did you plant a蛊 worm on me?” Although Zhang Qianshan couldn’t be said to be learned, he was very knowledgeable about many things.
Especially regarding蠱 worms, there were many records in some ancient texts he had read.
He could clearly feel a small thing in his Dantian, and that small thing was constantly wriggling, resembling the legendary蛊 worm.
Apart from visiting Du Weicai, he had no such reaction anywhere else. He finally understood what his subordinate’s flustered eyes meant.
It was to warn him to guard against Du Weicai.
But he hadn’t understood.
