Lian Hai, already in a panic, became utterly despairing when he saw the usually arrogant Young Master Tian acting so submissively before Yang Feilong.
"Is this Yang Feilong really a scion of that Yang family? I, I actually offended someone like him?"
That Yang family was not ordinary in its strength. The Tian family, at best, was comparable to the Mi family, and not even necessarily superior. They only had an Earth Martial Realm expert guarding them.
But that Yang family had an existence surpassing the Heaven Martial Realm! They were incredibly powerful!
Tian Guang feared Yang Feilong because he had also received information that Yang Feilong might be a descendant of that Yang family. How else could such an extraordinary prodigy be cultivated?
Yang Feilong was quite speechless at Tian Guang's surrender. Of course, he also believed what the other party said.
Tian Guang probably didn't know much about the so-called beauty Lian Hai had presented him with.
However, even so, Yang Feilong couldn't just let this matter slide because of his surrender. He didn't pick fights, but he wasn't afraid of them either. If Lou Yimo didn't have him backing her, who knew what Tian Guang would have done if he learned the truth!
This fellow had a bad reputation. Even though Yang Feilong hadn't spent much time in the martial world, he had heard about it!
Yang Feilong looked at Tian Guang, remaining silent, his expression indifferent.
Tian Guang gritted his teeth, harboring resentment. Yang Feilong was too disrespectful, not letting the matter go even after he had conceded.
But despite his inner anger, he dared not challenge Yang Feilong. Putting aside whether Yang Feilong was a prodigy from that Yang family or not, even if he wasn't, he was still no match for Yang Feilong, who had crushed Ouyang Tian, a terrifying prodigy at the middle stage of the Origin Martial Realm!
Furthermore, he had heard that a few days ago, the Black and White Twin Fiends had intercepted Yang Feilong and were suspected to have been killed by him!
He didn't know if this was true, but it was better to believe it than not. If Yang Feilong had done it himself, it meant he might possess the combat power of the Earth Martial Realm. If he hadn't done it himself, then he might have an Earth Martial Realm protector nearby.
Whether it was Yang Feilong himself or his protector, either of them could easily kill him.
In the next moment, Tian Guang threw a punch. Of course, it wasn't aimed at Yang Feilong, but at his follower, Lian Hai!
"Young Master Tian, no!" Lian Hai cried out in terror, seeing the resolve in Tian Guang's eyes.
He had never expected that after Tian Guang arrived and acted so humbly towards Yang Feilong, he would instead strike him with full force!
Was this the helper he called for? Not an enemy?
*Thwack!*
The power of this punch wasn't overwhelming, but it landed on Lian Hai and directly shattered his dan tian!
Yes!
He directly crippled Lian Hai!
"No, no!" Lian Hai was incredulous. He never imagined he would end up in such a state. He had done this to please Tian Guang, yet this was his outcome?
In the next moment, Tian Guang took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Yang Feilong, saying, "This is a bearer card. The password is six zeros. You can withdraw from any major bank. It contains a significant sum. Consider it compensation. Brother Yang, what do you say?"
He wore a smile on his face, as if he hadn't just crippled Lian Hai.
Yang Feilong looked at Tian Guang deeply. This was a ruthless individual. He then accepted the bearer card and said indifferently, "I accept this compensation. Of course, if Brother Tian wishes to retaliate against me, feel free to come at me!"
Yang Feilong spoke directly.
Tian Guang had suffered a great loss and lost face today. Would he just let it go?
Yang Feilong knew he wouldn't.
"Brother Yang, you jest. Your strength and talent far surpass mine, and you have the Yang family backing you. I wouldn't dare, even with a hundred times the courage!" Tian Guang looked at Yang Feilong with a smile, appearing to hold no grudges.
However, his words subtly hinted at probing Yang Feilong.
The Yang family? Yang Feilong had indeed heard many people regard him as a prodigy of the Yang family.
"No need to probe me, I am not from the Yang family!" Yang Feilong grinned. "As for my talent and strength? It's just so-so. Who knows, I might get backstabbed one day."
He shrugged, his tone relaxed, and looked at Tian Guang with a profound expression.
However, upon hearing Yang Feilong's words, Tian Guang's heart sank.
Not only could he not ascertain Yang Feilong's background, but he also felt subtly threatened. What did he mean by "might get backstabbed"? Was he implying that Tian Guang would do such a thing?
Although he had such thoughts, he couldn't act on them in the short term. Face was important, but life and the prosperity of his family were more important! Tian Guang was not someone who didn't know how to advance or retreat, otherwise, he wouldn't be where he was today!
Countless thoughts flashed through Tian Guang's mind. He then said with a chuckle, "Brother Yang's strength is formidable. Any petty individual who attempts any improper actions will surely pay a heavy price!"
"Brother Tian is correct!" Yang Feilong chuckled. "I am indeed that kind of person. I don't offend others if they don't offend me. If they offend me, I retaliate a hundredfold!"
Another subtle threat.
Tian Guang was annoyed inwardly but didn't show it on his face. He chuckled and said, "Brother Yang, how about a drink?"
"No need. My friends and I have other matters. Perhaps another day!" Yang Feilong also smiled.
Anyone who didn't know the conflict between them might think they were old friends meeting after a long time.
Yang Feilong then looked at Lou Yimo, "Let's go!"
As for Lou Yimo's friends, Yang Feilong hadn't even glanced at them from beginning to end.
Although Lou Yimo had explained the situation simply over the phone, she had outlined the general cause and effect. The reason he didn't help Lou Yimo get her revenge was that Tian Guang and Lian Hai wouldn't let Han Yiteng and Liu Fang off.
Seeing Lou Yimo and Yang Feilong about to leave, Lou Yimo's friends quickly followed. Without Yang Feilong, they were worried that these red-eyed individuals wouldn't let them go.
Han Yiteng and Liu Fang also followed with their heads bowed.
"Why are you two following me?" Lou Yimo's eyes were cold as she looked at them. She was furious that these two had actually framed her. If not for Yang Feilong's help, she didn't dare to imagine what terrible things she might have encountered.
The others were fine. Although they hadn't stepped forward to help her earlier, they hadn't colluded with the villains either. The main culprits weren't them. Being kind-hearted, she was willing to let them leave with her. But as for Han Yiteng and Liu Fang, she couldn't be bothered!
"Yimo, we were wrong. You can't leave us behind!" Liu Fang pleaded, tears streaming down her face.
"Yes, Yimo, we were forced into it. How could we have done this?" Han Yiteng also cried, "For the sake of you and Liu Fang being best friends, for the sake of us being friends, let us come with you!"
"You still remember that we are best friends, that we are friends? You actually harmed me like this and expect me to let bygones be bygones? I tell you, I don't have such a magnanimous heart!" Lou Yimo said fiercely, then turned to Yang Feilong, "Boss, let's go!"
