Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 575: Chapter 575 Little Ancestor Ling Feng! (1 update)

Seeing the lively conversation between the two figures, young and old, all the major powers of Iron Wolf City were left dumbstruck.

Although they were not familiar with Long Xiaao, given City Lord Helian Xiong’s demeanor towards Long Xiaao, he was certainly also a figure of significance.

And Ling Feng appeared to be quite acquainted with such an important figure, which made his own identity quite intriguing.

It seemed that this time, the Skeleton Gang had really kicked an iron board.

Tang Lie’s heart sank with a thud, feeling an imminent sensation of capsizing.

Even City Lord Helian was having trouble maintaining his composure; he had initially wanted to capture this youngster first, but now it seemed the situation had taken a turn.

Who was Long Xiaao?

Among the Black Armored Cavalry Army, a very young General, rapidly promoted, strong in power! Further, his family background was that of the Empire’s prestigious Long Family!

It could even be said that the arrival of Long Xiaao was an indication from the Empire that he was the chosen successor to take over the position of City Lord.

Typically, a City Lord of a border city would not hold office for more than ten years. Given that his term was nearly up, it was clear that Iron Wolf City would soon be Long Xiaao’s domain.

Helian Xiong, having struggled and fought in the military for decades, naturally understood the intricacies involved. Since Ling Feng was an old acquaintance of Long Xiaao, it was best not to provoke him.

If Ling Feng was untouchable, then the only option was to move against the Skeleton Gang.

”Hmm!”

City Lord Helian coughed lightly, interrupting Long Xiaao’s conversation with Ling Feng, and asked softly, ”General Long, who might this young brother be?”

”Oh, I almost forgot to introduce him to City Lord,”

Long Xiaao replied with a light smile, ”This young brother is called Ling Feng. As for his specific identity, I am not quite sure. However, it seems he has a substantial connection with the Cangqiong Sect.”

”Cang... Cangqiong Sect!”

City Lord Helian’s pupils contracted slightly—National Guardian Divine Sect Cangqiong Sect!

As a General in the military, he naturally knew the most powerful troop in the military was named Divine Guard Camp!

And the Divine Guard Camp was commanded by this Cangqiong Sect.

The expressions of the surrounding guests shifted unpredictably.

The reputation of the Cangqiong Sect was absolutely enough to suppress everything! Having even a slight connection to the Cangqiong Sect was incredibly impressive!

Before City Lord Helian could recover, Long Xiaao continued, ”Moreover, this young friend Ling Feng showed no interest in my recommendation for the Black Armor Forbidden Army previously. I think his identity must be quite mysterious, isn’t it, friend Ling Feng?”

”What power? General Long, please stop teasing your junior,” Ling Feng said with a modest smile, his tone humble.

However, the more he declined, the more Long Xiaao and Helian Xiong felt the influence behind Ling Feng was beyond estimation.

City Lord Helian swallowed hard, his arrogance replaced by a very ”kind” smile.

”So it turns out to be Ling Feng, the worthy nephew! Haha...” City Lord Helian squinted his eyes, adding with a mild smile, ”As it happens, I also know several Elders of the Cangqiong Sect. We’re practically family, aren’t we?”

”Is that so? Could City Lord also be acquainted with the Sect Master or Elder Wen? I’m quite familiar with them, too.”

Ling Feng touched his nose, inwardly sneering: What an incredibly ”close” family indeed!

”Ah hahaha...”

A cold sweat broke out on City Lord Helian’s back; the Sect Master and Elders were big figures in the upper echelons of Cangqiong Sect. He had only been fortunate enough to catch a distant glimpse of Yue Zhonglian during a royal audience and was far from being acquainted.

Thank goodness, Long Xiao recognized this Ling Feng in time. Otherwise, if we had provoked such a Little Ancestor, oh my dear mother, the impact on my career!

City Lord Helian secretly wiped his sweat and turned his gaze toward Tang Lie, which immediately became rather unfriendly.

”City... City Lord, you... he... he, he is the murderer who killed three Gang Leaders of the Guo Family!”

When Helian Xiong uttered the words ”one family,” Tang Lie knew things had gotten pretty serious.

”Hmph!” Helian Xiong glared fiercely at Tang Lie and said coldly, ”What a joke! Do you think I am the kind of senile fool who can’t tell right from wrong? Those Guo brothers committed many crimes in the city, robbing and murdering. Even if Ling Feng, my worthy nephew, hadn’t acted, I would have dealt with them sooner or later!”

”City Lord, you...”

Tang Lie’s eyes were nearly popping out of his skull. This City Lord Helian, his face changed faster than flipping through a book!

”Get out of my sight!”

With a kick, Helian Xiong sent Tang Lie flying and said coldly, ”The Skeleton Gang has been oppressing others and acting atrociously in Iron Wolf City. I have long collected enough evidence of their crimes and have been waiting for today, in the Spirit Hall, to catch all of you treacherous villains in one fell swoop!”

”Come here!”

City Lord Helian waved his sleeve and shouted loudly, ”Take Tang Lie, Jian Baizhang, and all the ringleaders of the Skeleton Gang into custody to be executed on a chosen day! Confiscate all properties under the name of the Skeleton Gang!”

”Helian Xiong! You, Helian Xiong!”

Tang Lie was almost dumbfounded. If he were a sly and cunning fox, then this Helian Xiong was nothing short of a vicious wolf that devours its prey without spitting out the bones!

”Drag him away!”

Helian Xiong stood with his hands behind his back, displaying the imposing majesty of the City Lord, decisive and swift, leaving everyone present dumbstruck.

However, no matter what, the influence and remnants of the Skeleton Gang were ultimately eradicated in one fell swoop.

Wang Tianlin and the others exchanged glances, unable to believe that Ling Feng, without shedding a drop of blood, had successfully uprooted the Skeleton Gang, and even the City Lord himself seemed to be compromising with Ling Feng to some extent.

”City Lord is wise!”

”City Lord, you truly have keen insight. Under your rule, the people of Iron Wolf City can finally live and work in peace and happiness!”

”The Skeleton Gang deserved such an end for their crimes!”

”...”

As the saying goes, when the wall falls, everyone pushes. Just moments ago, the guests who were shouting for revenge for the three Guo brothers, all of a sudden, seemed to transform into envoys of justice.

”City Lord Helian’s eradication of the Skeleton Gang truly brings great joy to the people!”

Ling Feng squinted and smiled. While Helian Xiong might not be a good person, Ling Feng’s goals had been achieved in the end.

”That’s nothing compared to the heroic feat of Ling Feng, my worthy nephew, who single-handedly slayed the Guo brothers!”

Helian Xiong squinted and smiled, ”Today, my worthy nephew Ling Feng has done a great service for the people of Iron Wolf City. I must insist you visit my humble abode, where I will host a banquet in your honor, and take the opportunity to welcome and cleanse the dust from General Long’s journey.”

”This...” Ling Feng touched his nose and glanced at Long Xiao before nodding in agreement.

It had been over a month, and in Sky Demon City, the Demon Clan almost always consumed raw flesh and blood or roasted meats. It had been quite some time since Ling Feng had tasted the delicacies of the Human Clan.

This was a good opportunity to rest for the night in Iron Wolf City and then continue the journey to the Imperial City early the next day.

The threat of the Reincarnation Sword Intent had been eliminated, and it was time to let Yan Cangtian know as soon as possible, so he would not have to worry any longer.
