Chapter 773: Chapter 773 Siege Talk_1

Seeing Tang Feng’s demeanor, Xiao Anjun felt a wave of embarrassment. He was a Family Head, and yet here he was, personally seeking rapport with a junior, only to be treated in such a manner. For a moment, his face struggled to maintain composure.

But Xiao Anjun knew that the other had the capital to be arrogant, while he himself had no right to be angry.

Thump, thump, thump!

A series of footsteps sounded as a middle-aged man arrived at the villa garden, led by Lu Family guards.

Scanning those gathered in the courtyard, the man strode over to Zhuge Jun Cheng and cupped his fists, ”Young Master Zhuge, my name is Wu Zhengyan, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Chixiao Sect. I am here by the Sect Master’s order to serve as the protector for Third Young Master Tang.”

Zhuge Jun Cheng’s expression changed, and he clasped his hands respectfully, ”May I ask for the senior’s level of strength?”

”Heavenly Level pinnacle,” Wu Zhengyan said blandly.

”What?!”

”Heavenly Level pinnacle!”

”A Heavenly Level pinnacle Grandmaster serving as the protector to Zhuge’s second young master!?”

”Does this... does this mean the Chixiao Sect is starting to value the Zhuge Family?”

The revelation of Wu Zhengyan’s level of strength provoked cries of shock from the crowd, and those in the know began to speculate various things in their minds.

Zhuge Jun Cheng paused for a moment, then said with an overjoyed expression, ”Is the Sect... planning to support our Zhuge Family?”

”The Sect is indeed starting to pay more attention to the Zhuge Family and the Lu Family, two of its affiliate families. As for support, I’m not certain of that!” Wu Zhengyan replied in a low voice.

”Thank you for coming, senior!” Zhuge Jun Cheng said excitedly.

Tang Feng glanced at Wu Zhengyan, then, with a clever turn of his eyes, asked softly, ”May I inquire, Mr. Wu, has something happened within the Chixiao Sect?”

Wu Zhengyan turned to look directly at Tang Feng, his eyes narrowing slightly as a wary expression appeared in his gaze.

”Mr. Wu, please don’t misunderstand. I am Tang Feng,” Tang Feng quickly explained.

”The third young master of the Tang Family?”

Wu Zhengyan looked surprised for a moment before cupping his fists, ”I have met Third Young Master Tang. There’s been nothing amiss with the Sect; it just feels that it has previously overlooked the affiliate families and hence has made some adjustments.”

”I see,” Tang Feng nodded gently.

”Wow! She’s so beautiful!”

”Miss Lu Qianqian is really gorgeous!”

”Who’s that guy?”

”Yeah, who is he? Why is he standing next to Miss Lu?”

”He must be Miss Lu’s bodyguard.”

A burst of surprised exclamations suddenly rang out in the courtyard.

Tang Feng and the others turned to look.

A young man and woman walked out of the villa gate. The woman had wavy long hair draped over her shoulders and wore a tight Flame Robe that outlined her proud figure exquisitely. Her breathtakingly beautiful face wore a gentle smile, making one feel as if bathed in a warm spring breeze at first glance.

”How did that guy end up walking with Miss Lu? Looks like he’s trying to cling to Miss Lu. What a sycophantic little man!” Xiao Anjun said, his face darkening.

Wu Zhengyan, who was about to step forward to greet Lu Qianqian, frowned at Xiao Anjun’s words, then turned to look at Xiao Anjun angrily.

Sensing Wu Zhengyan’s expression, Tang Feng’s eyes shifted, and he glanced at Xiao Anjun before asking softly, ”Does Director Xiao know the young man standing with Miss Lu?”

”That young man is named Jiang Chen, the owner of Yi Chen Corporation in Dingjing; relying on his good looks, he sought to curry favor with my Xiao Family. After I saw through his intentions, he used his familial connections to cling to the Lu Family!” Xiao Anjun said disdainfully.

Xiao Yunna frowned and said, ”Dad, Jiang Chen isn’t trying to climb up our social ladder. He came to us to find his father. Don’t make up stories about him.”

”What do you mean ’find his father’? Why would someone searching for his father attend Miss Lu’s birthday banquet?” Xiao Anjun spoke in a heavy voice.

”You, you are being completely unreasonable!” Xiao Yunna said angrily, her face turning bright red.

Zhuge Jun Cheng’s brow furrowed as he glanced at Xiao Yunna, then at Jiang Chen, his expression turning slightly grim. He sensed something unusual about Xiao Yunna’s attitude towards Jiang Chen and felt somewhat displeased. He took a step toward Jiang Chen.

Tang Feng stretched out his hand and pulled Zhuge Jun Cheng back.

”Third Young Master?” Zhuge Jun Cheng looked at Tang Feng in surprise.

Just as Tang Feng was about to speak, a provocative voice rang out, ”Sir, as a bodyguard, don’t you think you shouldn’t be following into the courtyard?”

”Hmph! The young master of the Li family has made a move. I would like to see how Jiang Chen deals with this!” Xiao Anjun said with a cold laugh.

Wu Zhengyan slightly narrowed his eyes and gave Xiao Anjun a cold look before turning his head toward the courtyard.

In the center of the courtyard, Lu Qianqian and Jiang Chen had just arrived in front of the cake on the central table when a young man stepped forward to block Jiang Chen’s way.

”Bodyguard? I am not a bodyguard,” Jiang Chen said flatly, glancing at the young man.

The young man said with an exaggerated expression, ”Not a bodyguard? Then may I know which family’s young master you are? I am Li Zheng from the Li family of S Province. I have met all the young masters of the families in S Province, yet I do not recognize you.”

”I am not a young master of any family, nor am I a person from S Province,” Jiang Chen said flatly.

”Li Zheng, Jiang Chen is the descendant of an old acquaintance of my father. Don’t start trouble here,” Lu Qianqian said, frowning at Li Zheng.

Earlier, inside the villa, Lu Chengfeng’s respectful introduction of Jiang Chen to Lu Qianqian had taken her by surprise.

Lu Chengfeng is an absolute giant in the S Province business community. Even if a high-ranking official from S Province were to visit, he might not necessarily be as respectful.

However, Lu Chengfeng had not told Lu Qianqian the specific identity of Jiang Chen, only mentioning that he was from the Jiang Family of Jincheng and an old friend of their family, encouraging the two to get closer.

”What descendant of an old acquaintance? Nothing but an upstart trying to hitch his wagon to a star!” sneered a mocking voice.

Xiao Anjun approached Jiang Chen and the others, looking at them with disdain, ”Jiang Chen, since you can’t climb into our Xiao family, you now want to latch onto the Lu family? Your ambition is quite big. What? Are you relying on your ancestor’s connection to the Lu family to marry into it? Haven’t you married into a family enough times already?”

”Married into a family? This guy has married into a family before?”

”Holy shit! What sort of trash thinks he can marry into the Lu family? What is he thinking?”

”Exactly, he doesn’t even look in the mirror. Does he think just because he has a pretty face, he can pick the top beauty of our S Province? He must be dreaming.”

”Kid, get the hell out of here!”

”Get out!”

Xiao Anjun’s words incited the anger of the young men around him, and they began to shout loudly.

Wu Zhengyan’s expression turned extremely ugly, and he was about to shout when a cold voice interrupted, ”Xiao Anjun, for the sake of Xiao Yunna, I have tolerated you for a long time. Don’t think my temper is so good!”

Jiang Chen looked at Xiao Anjun coldly, his eyes reflecting a chilling light.

”Boy, do you dare speak to the Xiao family head like that? Are you seeking death?”

Zhuge Jun Cheng shouted, stepping in front of Jiang Chen and pointing at his nose, ”Kneel down and apologize to the Xiao family head right now, or I won’t let you leave the Lu family villa!”

Damn!

Tang Feng inwardly cursed, glancing urgently at Wu Zhengyan. Upon seeing Wu Zhengyan’s expression, his heart skipped a beat.

At that moment, Wu Zhengyan’s face was ashen, and the look he gave Zhuge Jun Cheng was filled with frostiness—and the frostiness contained a killing intent!
