Seeing Qin Yanyang appear, Hu Lizhong immediately stood up and saluted.
Qin Yanyang gave a slight nod and looked towards Yang Fei: "What’s so urgent that you wanted to see me?"
Hu Lizhong noticed the couple had matters to discuss and proactively exited the room.
Yang Fei stood up and walked to Qin Yanyang’s side, taking her hand to have her sit down, and said with concern, "Why are you so exhausted?"
Since the Zhuge family, Duanmu family, and Giant Sword Manor brought turmoil to the Chu family and the Sun family, Qin Yanyang has been in a busy state.
Especially in the recent half year, dealing with the repercussions of the Hidden Sect’s collapse and the joint crisis of attacks from Heaven and the Penglai Realm, the high-levels of the Divine Continent have been working tirelessly, exhausting their efforts.
Qin Yanyang, being a powerful Martial Artist with profound cultivation, is still very young, yet looking very fatigued, showcasing how intense the mental and physical pressure on the other high-levels must be.
Held by Yang Fei’s hand, Qin Yanyang’s body felt a sense of reliance, leaning against Yang Fei, she softly said, "I’m alright, there are many others more tired than I am."
Yang Fei nodded sincerely: "You are all truly amazing."
Qin Yanyang smiled calmly, looking up at him she said, "Then you should recover quickly, to help us."
Yang Fei nodded vigorously: "Yes, I will strive to recover, and even if it’s difficult to restore my Physical Body Realm, I can still help my wife."
Qin Yanyang smiled happily, wanting to lean in Yang Fei’s arms for a while longer, but having had made time with difficulty to see Yang Fei, she asked, "What’s so urgent you had to come, tell me, I have many people waiting for me there, can’t it wait until I get home tonight?"
Yang Fei said: "Not really that urgent, just wanted to come out and see things, especially see you."
Qin Yanyang felt warmth in her heart: "You knew everything already?"
Yang Fei nodded: "Yes, about the series of events after the Hidden Sect’s collapse, Li Xuanyu told me all about it."
Qin Yanyang said quietly: "Last night after you woke up, I intended to tell you these things, but I was afraid you were too weak and needed rest, then Tong Yunshu and others came to visit you one after another, so I didn’t get the chance to tell you."
Yang Fei said with concern: "Indeed, if you had told me sooner, I would not have let you return to work today. They said you were busy around the clock for a while, and after you found me, you ran back and forth, which is just too tiring, it breaks my heart."
Qin Yanyang’s heart warmed, chuckled and said, "Your words just sweet-talk us women, so glib."
Yang Fei held her hand against his heart: "I have always been sincere to you, never deceitful."
Qin Yanyang softly agreed.
Although the incident of this scoundrel cheating with Tong Yunshu made her uncomfortable, she couldn’t deny that he genuinely cared for her.
Being alone now, she didn’t want to fuss over Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu’s matter, otherwise, it would only frustrate her.
She leaned in Yang Fei’s arms, closed her eyes for a while, then suddenly stood up and pushed Yang Fei away, saying: "If nothing else, I’ll go back to work."
Yang Fei, seeing her leaving hurriedly after just arriving, felt reluctant and held her hand, "Rest a bit longer."
Qin Yanyang shook her head with a smile: "It’s alright, since you’re here, stay a while, I’ll be back with you after work tonight."
Yang Fei thought a moment, not mentioning anything about Monica or Li Xuanyu, letting her be busy.
He wandered inside the office building but found himself constantly restricted, so he simply walked outside the building.
Outside, he saw Hu Lizhong chatting with someone.
He walked over and found the people there somewhat familiar.
"Brother Yang." Hu Lizhong, upon seeing Yang Fei, immediately waved to the others and said, "I have matters to attend to, ladies and gentlemen, sorry, I really can’t help you with your issues."
Yang Fei suddenly laughed as he recalled.
These people were all old acquaintances.
Feng Tianzong, Chai Song, Guman Zhao, Jiang Yuanshuo, and Wu Lie.
They were once on par with Tong Yan, each having Unique Tier levels of combat strength.
Before Martial Artists from the Hidden Sect, Heaven, and the Penglai Realm entered the world, they were among the strongest, except for those National Guardian Level Innate Realm fighters in the Divine Continent.
However, as Yang Fei’s strength was restored and he later discovered the Foundation Establishment Technique for opening acupoints and tempering the Body, he began to scoff at the so-called Unique Tier fighters.
After all, Innate Realm was not much to him now, let alone those slightly inferior to Innate Realm?
Seeing these former adversaries now, Yang Fei felt peaceful, with little animosity.
Even Qin Yanyang didn’t deal with these people, meaning although they’d chosen the wrong side, Qin Yanyang treated them as Martial Arts people without eradicating them.
The fact that they’re here now, seemingly seeking Hu Lizhong for assistance, piqued Yang Fei’s curiosity.
Wu Lie, Guman Zhao, Jiang Yuanshuo, and Chai Song had fought with Yang Fei in the past, and as they saw Yang Fei, they showed some embarrassment.
Feng Tianzong, who had a vendetta for his grandson and had aimed to dominate in Jiangbei over the Zhu family, was particularly resentful towards Yang Fei.
But now, after his expression changed several times, Feng Tianzong took broad steps towards Yang Fei and cupped his hands, bowing with respect: "Criminal Feng Tianzong pays his respects to Mr. Yang."
Yang Fei looked puzzled at Hu Lizhong, only to see Hu Lizhong shrug innocently.
"Mr. Yang, my unworthy grandchild offended you once, and I too was muddleheaded, following along heedlessly. Grateful for your broad-mindedness, your expansive vision did not stoop to settle accounts with my Feng family, for which I offer my gratitude and respects."
Seeing Feng Tianzong about to kneel, Yang Fei was startled and quickly said: "Elder, what are you doing, please rise."
As he spoke, he made a gesture as if supporting him through telekinesis, and Spiritual Energy moved in the void, uplifting Feng Tianzong’s kneeling body.
This was Feng Tianzong’s second time seeing Yang Fei, and seeing that in a year this person’s Cultivation Realm had reached such levels, he was secretly in awe.
This person truly is a prodigy as rumored, with deep and immeasurable strength.
Kneeling to such a figure does not disgrace me, Feng Tianzong.
Moreover, for the future of the Feng family, he must bow his head.
Meanwhile, seeing Feng Tianzong disregard face and status, bowing and apologizing to Yang Fei, Wu Lie, Guman Zhao, Jiang Yuanshuo, and Chai Song flushed with embarrassment, exchanged looks of confusion.
Hu Lizhong gave a light cough, sweeping his gaze over the crowd, especially gesturing to Jiang Yuanshuo.
Jiang Yuanshuo, face flushing, gritted his teeth, stepped forward boldly, and knelt before Yang Fei in salute: "Mr. Yang, I, Jiang Yuanshuo, made mistakes before. Today, I’m here to ask forgiveness from both you and Minister Qin, hoping to get another chance for the Jiang family." For more chapters visit NoveI~Fire.net
