Feng Jiajun forced a fawning smile, his gaze filled with anticipation. "Lord Liu, I've brought a master with me, someone very skilled in refining medicine."
"I had some ailments before, and if it weren't for a medicine he gave me that restored me, you might not have seen me."
"He also knows how to refine pills for martial artists."
"He even told me that as long as I wanted to become a martial artist, he could help me if I paid a certain price."
"Today he was going to buy medicinal herbs from Manager Niu, and we happened to run into each other, so I invited him here immediately."
He was playing dumb.
When he went there before, Lord Liu hadn't told him that Mu Feng would be waiting for him.
This was like lighting a lantern in a latrine, seeking death.
Since the one surnamed Liu wanted to kill him, it wasn't unreasonable for him to plot against him in return.
Lord Liu frowned. "Don't you even know the person's name?"
"I didn't have time to ask. The moment I saw him, I invited him over because I knew you, Lord Liu, are also a martial artist and would definitely need his help. Introducing such a friend to you will surely make you very happy."
"I believe such a friend is far more important than Manager Niu."
Lord Liu let out a cold snort, his gaze at Feng Jiajun filled with obvious disdain.
"I don't know what stroke of luck you've had to even know Physician Gu. Take me to see him now."
"If he is truly a powerful ancient physician, I will also give you some benefits."
He was just saying that. If Feng Jiajun didn't do as he said, this person would already be in trouble. Moreover, he had already set his sights on the increased assets. Feng Jiajun, this puppet, was not very useful, and he planned to replace him.
With these thoughts in mind, he followed Feng Jiajun into the private room.
The doorway was filled with beautiful women, and they all looked confused and perplexed.
"What kind of type does the handsome guy inside like? We've sent wave after wave, and none of them satisfy him?"
"He's so handsome and comes here to play, his standards must be incredibly high. Us common beauties surely can't catch his eye."
"I'm really curious about who this handsome guy will choose in the end. Even if I don't get paid anything, I want to accompany him. Being with him would be my gain."
The laughter and discussions of the women continued to be heard.
Lord Liu frowned, feeling that something was amiss.
However, they had already arrived at the door of the private room.
The door was knocked, and Mu Feng's voice came from inside.
"Come in!"
Feng Jiajun, with a face full of smiles, pushed the door open.
"Lord Liu, this is the friend I told you about."
"You two will surely have much to talk about."
"I'll wait outside and guard for you. Feel free to chat slowly."
As soon as Lord Liu stepped into the room, Feng Jiajun slammed the door shut.
He then looked at the group of beautiful women outside and directly shouted, "Don't linger here anymore. Can't you see we're discussing important matters? You can come in after the important matters are concluded."
After saying that, he took out a stack of money and scattered it.
After the women scrambled for the money, they all left.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with a bit of trepidation as he thought,
"Mu Feng, you must win! Kill that guy directly, or I'm doomed."
He prayed inwardly.
Meanwhile, inside the private room, Lord Liu's expression turned angry as he realized who the person was.
Mu Feng said faintly, "I've come to your territory, aren't you going to host me?"
"Are you just going to give me a scowl?"
Lord Liu forced a smile. "We don't seem to know each other. And Feng Jiajun said you're his friend, so you're my friend too."
"This club is my property. All your expenses today will be covered by me."
"Consider it a welcome to a new friend..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw a silver needle appear in Mu Feng's hand, and the rest of his words were choked in his throat.
His eyes were filled with vigilance.
He knew Mu Feng's skill with silver needles was superb, capable of bringing people back from the dead or inflicting unbearable pain.
"Don't be so nervous. There's plenty of space here, feel free to sit anywhere."
"There are some things I want to discuss with you properly."
"We're not familiar with each other, so let's not talk about it, shall we?" Lord Liu's voice trembled slightly.
His gaze was filled with apprehension and fear.
Although he hadn't personally fought Mu Feng, the aura emanating from Mu Feng made him feel as if his heart was being grasped.
Mu Feng said with a half-smile, "Are you sure you don't have time?"
"Don't say I didn't give you a chance. I just want to talk to you and get you to tell the truth. If you don't cooperate..."
He left the rest of his words unsaid.
Lord Liu hesitated slightly, then walked over and sat opposite Mu Feng with a stiff expression.
A satisfied smile appeared on Mu Feng's face. "Very good, you're willing to cooperate."
"Then speak!"
"Why did you deliberately target me?"
"Besides, you yourself said we don't know each other and have no past grievances. First, you sent a secretary to instigate Manager Niu, and then you wanted Feng Jiajun to test my attitude."
"You just didn't expect Feng Jiajun to be so terrified of me that he sold you out the moment he saw me."
Lord Liu's heart was filled with rage that almost turned into resentment. He knew it was that bastard Feng Jiajun who had sold him out.
But now was not the time to dwell on that. The more important thing was how to escape.
Mu Feng raised an eyebrow. "I gave you a chance to sit here and talk with me calmly. Don't be ungrateful."
"If I take action, there will be no turning back."
"I haven't attacked you directly because I'm in a good mood. But if you take my mercy as an excuse to push your luck, then you'll have to be prepared."
Lord Liu gritted his teeth, recalling the orders his family had given him when he came.
His gaze showed a hint of internal struggle.
"My name is Liu Qiang, and I'm from the Liu family."
"Our family mainly cultivates Gu techniques. Previously, someone in our family was responsible for collecting financial resources for the family, but he died by your hand. The family head sent me to investigate what happened."
"I took the liberty of using some methods against you."
"I apologize to you now."
