No words were exchanged during the night, and when Pang Feng and his party set out from Mount Lin the next day, the group had nearly doubled in size.
The charm of the half-blood beauty from Ozterra was irresistible, having attracted a band of gallant escorts in Southern Chu, and when they reached the territory of Northern Chu, the number of gentlemen rushing to offer their protection was no less, and judging by their imposing manner, they were no weaker than Xin Fei and his cohort.
Leading this group was Yao Hui, the son of Yao Changsheng from the Northern Chu Yao Group, a household name and a true top power in Northern Chu. Yao Changsheng was once known as the biggest financial backer behind Liu Shensheng.
After Liu Shensheng was killed by Pang Feng, Yao Changsheng sought several times to meet with Pang Feng through Chen Ying. Pang Feng did not respond enthusiastically, presumably not wanting to seem too eager, so there was little connection between the Yao family and Pang Feng.
