Yanzi Town

While the "Jitian" went to Heigu Forest, Feng, Lei and two hundred elites came to Qibu Ferry and sneaked into Qibu Town with the order.

The two hundred elites were divided into four teams. Feng led one team of about 20 people to meet with the connector at Qibu Ferry. The other two teams formed a group of ten scouts to inquire about the intelligence of Qibu Town and Yanzi Town respectively. Lei and the remaining One team mingled with the locals and became a reserve force to support the three parties at any time.

Gong Fanqi was an old gatekeeper in Cheng Haiqian's mansion. Although his cultivation level was low, he was very loyal to Cheng Haiqian, so he was accepted by Cheng Haiqian as his servant and became a gatekeeper.

Although it is a sinecure, it is very profitable. Anyone who wants to see Cheng Haiqian will always get through the gatekeeper first.

As time passed, as more and more forces became jealous of Cheng Haiqian's business and territory, the battles continued to escalate.

One of the sects called "Heizangdi" has risen rapidly due to its ruthless methods and rigorous work, and has the momentum to surpass Cheng Haiqian's "Haiyan Sect".

But after all, Cheng Haiqian has been operating for hundreds of years and has a deep foundation, so it cannot shake its status for a while.

As the old saying goes, you can never walk by the river without getting your feet wet. Even if Cheng Haiqian had been careful for most of his life, he still could not avoid the fate of being ambushed by the enemy and captured one day.

During the escort, the secret agent of the Nightless Kingdom hijacked the prison car and took the man to the Blackwater Ice City, the capital of the Nightless Kingdom.

After Cheng Haiqian was captured, the power management of Yanzi Town was temporarily taken over by his son Cheng Yanbai.

On the surface, the four hall masters in Yanzi Town are not dissatisfied with their sons taking over as the chief hall master.

As long as Cheng Haiqian survives, the four of them will not dare to rebel. There is no guarantee that Cheng Haiqian will escape back one day. But when? This time may be long or short, and we may not be sure whether we will die just like that. Who can say clearly the variables involved.

The four main hall masters each have their own agendas for their own benefit, and because they are old men in the gang and have meritorious service and power, they secretly give Cheng Yan Bai Zhi Zi.

If you don't want anything, try your best to catch others. The four people colluded with each other privately and internally, and formed cliques for personal gain, making the "Haiyan Gang" a mess.

Cheng Yanbai wanted to get rid of these 'cancers', but he had no choice but to have few trustworthy people around him. He could not defeat the four fists with two fists. He could not go to war and kill them at the moment, so he had to choose to endure it first.

In order to prevent chaos within the Haiyan Gang and allow outside gangs to take advantage of the situation, he also tried many methods to win over and bribe some people, but with little success. Cheng Yanbai knew that capable people were not looking for petty profits, but everyone was eyeing his position in the main hall. Those who are in a weak position are all for profit. If they say they will rebel, they will rebel. There is no benevolence and righteousness at all.

Seeing that the "Black Tibetan Land" was gaining momentum day by day, Cheng Yanbai knew that it would be useless to worry about it, and he could not sit still and wait for death. So when the Nightless Kingdom sent a secret envoy to meet with him privately, he readily agreed.

... ...

The night is silent, the stars and the moon are bright.

Feng came to the agreed place alone, and was secretly taken by Gong Fanqi to a back pavilion in the inner courtyard of a side house. A young man stood with his hands behind his back. He was tall and strong, with a serious and square face that showed an unconcealable tiredness. .

"Is my father okay?"

When he saw the visitor, Cheng Yanbai didn't give in to him and went straight to the point.

Feng politely bowed, turned over a letter and presented it to him, "Cheng Gong, eat well and sleep well. This is his home letter to Young Master Cheng."

"..." Looking at the letter, Cheng Yanbai didn't rush to get it. He just snorted coldly and said, "That's nice to say. Is there anything good about being a prisoner?"

Feng looked solemn: "Other than being unable to return to Yanzi Town, Chenggong lacks nothing. Isn't it a little better than falling into the prison of your enemy?"

"Hmph." Cheng Yanbai frowned and said, "You control my father, don't you just want me to obey your orders and make me a puppet in your hands? How are you different from those people?"

After saying that, those stern and cold eyes stared straight at Feng.

Feng was not afraid, and did not avoid Cheng Yanbai's gaze. The corners of his lips raised slightly, and he replied: "My young master is indeed very interested in the management of the Southern Territory, but he is only interested. As for what young master Cheng said, he became My young master doesn’t need a puppet, he needs a loyal collaborator.”

Loyalty and collaborator are two words worthy of careful consideration.

"..." Cheng Yanbai narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

Seeing that he was silent, Feng smiled and continued: "It's okay if Young Master Cheng doesn't want to. My Young Master believes that it is not difficult to find such a collaborator."

Hearing this, Cheng Yanbai understood that this was a naked threat. What kind of loyal partner does it mean to be loyal to him?

Feng Neng felt Cheng Yanbai's anger, and said again: "Young Master Cheng, don't be angry. It's better to read the family letter before making a decision."

After saying that, he made a "please" gesture.

Cheng Yanbai was stunned for a moment, then he took the letter, opened it, checked the handwriting and confirmed that it was his father's, and then started to read.

"Yan Bai, my son, my father is currently living in the imperial capital of Heishui Ice City. I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and I don't have to worry about my health.

But there are three things I am worried about. Tell my son. First, if the four families are not united, they will attack my son. If I can only survive for one day as my father, the four of them will not dare to have murderous intentions towards you. Second, your status is unstable. , you can rely on the power of His Highness the Third Highness; 3. The 'black hiding place' is a hidden stake in our gang, you must get rid of it as soon as possible.

My son, you must think twice before deciding on anything and never act rashly. Be careful in everything.

And if I’m not here, take my place and offer incense and worship in front of your mother’s spiritual place. My son, take care, don’t read it, and write to Hai Qian. "

After a while, the angry expression on Cheng Yanbai's face improved a little. He put away the letter and wondered, "How do I know you didn't force my father to write this letter?"

Feng shook his head, "I don't know what is written in the letter. I remember that my young master said to Duke Cheng at that time: Duke Cheng doesn't understand the current situation and how to do it. Duke Cheng, you have made your own decision in your heart. Even if I don't like it, I won't. Forcing people to do things they don't want to do. This can easily lead to two minds, two minds that are not of the same mind, and the gain outweighs the loss.

Afterwards, Duke Cheng wrote this family letter and asked it to be handed over to you. Whether you believe it or not depends on the young master. I can't prove anything. "

"..." After hearing this man's answer, Cheng Yanbai understood the meaning and purpose of his father's letter to him.

Now that he is trapped, he expects that although he can take over the overall position of the hall leader, due to his unstable position, he will definitely suffer a lot at the hands of the four hall leaders. Others could not help him from afar, so they could only rely on the power in the hands of the third prince to help and stabilize his position and hegemony.

Everything that happens here, although my father is far away from home, he knows everything that happens in "Swallow Town". Cheng Yanbai's admiration for his father grew even stronger.

After a moment, Cheng Yanbai let out a long sigh and said to Feng in a much softer voice: "I want to see His Highness the Third Highness."

Feng replied: "Yes. I just need to wait for a while, young master."

"Oh. His Highness the Third Prince is not here yet?"

"To be fair to you, my young master is currently in the Black Valley Forest."
