Chapter 69 Are you deaf?
In the hall, Master Liang repeatedly thanked Yue Feng: "Young Master Feng, you are truly the savior of our Weihe Gang! I never imagined that even the leader of one of the two envoys of the Knife and Palm techniques couldn't do anything to you. Who says that Heaven doesn't bless our Weihe Gang! Hahahaha!"
Just as Yue Feng was about to say a few words of modesty, Xiong Zhaozhao suddenly rushed over and said to Yue Feng, "Feng Yue, something terrible has happened! Steward Qin has disappeared!"
……
In a dilapidated temple outside Huayin City, Steward Qin sized up the man in black before him: "Instructor Feng, it's been a long time."
Instructor Feng stared at Steward Qin for a long while, then sighed deeply: "Qin Da, Qin Da, how much risk did I take to spare your life back then? How did you repay me? The Third Young Master disappeared at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain, and you happened to be there at the time. Tell me, what happened?"
A deafening rumble of thunder was followed by the pouring rain. Butler Qin said in a low voice, "I will never forget your kindness to me. But I am no longer Qin Da; I am now a butler in Huayin City. As for your question, even if I knew the answer, I couldn't answer it."
Coach Feng laughed heartily: "Once a member of Qin University, always a member of Qin University! Don't think that just because you've been someone's dog for over a decade, you've truly become a dog. You're a wolf! A wolf carefully bred by the Xie family! Do you think you can spit out all the meat you've eaten in the past?!"
Steward Qin's face turned ashen. He opened his mouth, and suddenly heard someone outside the dilapidated temple say:
"There's a dilapidated temple here, let's go inside and hide."
"Damn it, what bad luck! I just left the city and got caught in this downpour."
"Shh—keep your voice down, it sounds like someone's already here. Let's go in and ask, but if they're not willing, we'll just have to leave."
As they were talking, several young men hurriedly walked in. They were stunned to see Butler Qin kneeling on the ground alone, with more than ten men in black standing in a row in front of him.
Steward Qin realized these young men were members of the Great Wind Gang. Although the Great Wind Gang and the Wei River Gang were sworn enemies, how could he allow these young men to die needlessly because of him? He shouted sternly, "This place is already taken! Find another safe spot to shelter from the rain!"
The young people weren't stupid; they were about to leave without a word. Suddenly, their vision blurred, and they were blocked by several men in black.
Instructor Feng sneered, "Qin Da, you may have a kind heart, but your memory isn't so good. You should remember our rules: those found dead must be killed without exception. However, I'm willing to make an exception for you. Just tell me who the Third Young Master contacted at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain, and I'll let them go."
Steward Qin said, "I killed the Third Young Master! He was practicing evil arts, and I caught him. I was furious and killed him. Take it out on me! Let them go!"
Upon hearing the words "evil martial arts," Instructor Feng's expression changed slightly, but he still patiently said, "If you were capable of killing the Third Young Master, you wouldn't have been so easily subdued by my men. It seems you won't regain your senses until you see some blood."
He gestured to one of his men. The man immediately pointed a finger at the chest of a member of the Great Wind Gang. The finger was so indistinct that the gang member couldn't even see it clearly, let alone defend himself. Steward Qin sighed, as if he were seeing his own end.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck not far outside, illuminating the dilapidated temple as if it were daytime. A lazy figure appeared beside the gang member, drew a single-edged sword from his belt, and severed the black-clad man's finger.
The man's blade flashed out like a mighty river, flowing endlessly. Before the man in black could even feel the pain, his wrists, elbows, shoulders, and neck were all severed.
Having witnessed such incredible skill firsthand, Steward Qin suddenly remembered someone and exclaimed, "You're the swordsman from the Great Wind Gang!"
Chen Ji sheathed his single-edged sword and smiled smugly at Butler Qin: "Not bad, that's me. You old codger have some backbone, how about joining our Great Wind Gang?"
Steward Qin's face darkened. He hadn't expected that the swordsman who struck fear into the hearts of the Weihe Gang would be such a thug-like youth. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer. Then Instructor Feng asked, "Who are you?"
Chen Ji's eyes widened as he pointed at Steward Qin and said, "Are you deaf? He just said I'm the swordsman of the Great Wind Gang. What, do I have to tell you my name and hometown?"
Instructor Feng coldly said, "Fine, the Great Wind Gang, is it? Using swords, is it? I'd like to see just how capable you are. Form ranks!"
At Instructor Feng's command, more than ten men in black swiftly moved, forming an ancient formation in the dilapidated temple, positioned to the left, right, front, and back. Chen Ji, standing among them, even found his breathing slightly labored, let alone drawing his sword to meet the enemy.
He frowned slightly, inwardly regretting not having attacked before they formed their formation. Now trapped, escaping wouldn't be difficult, but protecting his few remaining members of the Great Wind Gang would be a different story.
The men in black were extremely wary of Chen Ji's swift blade and dared not attack for a moment; Chen Ji, trying to find a flaw in the men's formation, also refrained from attacking. The dilapidated temple fell silent. Only then did Steward Qin notice that the rain outside had stopped, the wind had dispersed the clouds, moonlight shone through, and all was quiet.
A burst of hearty laughter shattered the tense silence. Butler Qin recognized the laughter as coming from Xiong Zhaozhao and his expression changed. Xiong Zhaozhao then said:
"My lord, there's a dilapidated temple here. Shall we go in and pray to Buddha?"
"Since it's a dilapidated temple, it might not even have a Buddha statue. Let's go somewhere else to worship."
"No! I'm going! If you won't go, I will!"
Xiong Zhaozhao and Yue Feng burst in one after the other. Xiong Zhaozhao acted as if she hadn't seen so many people in the temple, covering her mouth and saying, "Oh my, the Buddha in this temple is really big! Husband, come with me to pay our respects."
The two walked forward. One of the men in black surrounding Chen Ji instinctively tried to stop him, but Yue Feng casually shoved him, sending him crashing into a second man in black, who in turn crashed into a third. One after another, they crashed into each other, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten men in black lay dead on the ground.
Instructor Feng's heart pounded as he asked Yue Feng, "And you are...?"
A sudden gust of wind rose, filling the dilapidated temple. Yue Feng slowly sheathed his sword, turned around, and saw Instructor Feng's corpse slowly kneeling on the ground.

Meanwhile, Xiong Zhaozhao had already released Qin the Butler's pressure points and asked if he was injured. Qin the Butler shook his head, still reeling from the shock of Yue Feng's attack, and was speechless for a moment. Xiong Zhaozhao bowed to Chen Ji in greeting.
"Thank you very much. If you hadn't arrived in time, my elder might have been in trouble. I, Xiong Zhaozhao, owe you a favor."
Chen Ji shook his head and said, "I was only trying to save my men, and I almost failed. If you owe someone a favor, owe the gang leader. After all, he's the one who brought me back from the wrong path."
