Feng Yun beat the man badly, however, the man refused to answer his questions.
"There is no point in asking him, he won't tell you anything." At this time, Feng Yun heard a voice which made him alert again. He turned around and saw an old man coming towards him, dragging a man along with him.
The old man threw the man toward Feng Yun and spoke, "These people are hired killers, sent by the city lord of Maple Leaf City."
"Who are you?" Feng Yun looked at the old man curiously and asked vigilantly. Sensing the aura of the old man, Feng Yun knew this old man was a saint realm cultivator. His aura felt even stronger than the old woman who was with Long Mingxi.
Feng Yun was ready to take out the killing talisman, at this time, the old man spoke, "My name is Luo Shanyuan. I am from the Princess's side."
"Why are you here?" Feng Yun's eyebrows creased slightly as he questioned again. Is he following him from the start? Feng Yun couldn't help but think in his mind.
"I am not following you. We did some research on you and found that your life is in danger. The princess asked me to protect you while you are in Red Fort City, consider it repaying the favor for saving the life of the Princess."
"Oh," Feng Yun nodded lightly, his expression eased up. "Thanks." Then he looked at the man thrown by the old man and asked, "Who is he?"
"He is also one of them. Don't worry, he was last." Luo Shanyuan said.
"That is a relief." Feng Yun nodded. "You said that the City Lord sent them to kill me, but I or my clan, we never harmed the city lord, why does he want to kill me?"
"I don't know, he didn't know either. You have to question the city lord if you want the answers." Luo Shanyuan pointed at the man lying on the ground and said.
Feng Yun confused all of this, first someone plotted against him and Su Mei, then the City Lord sent killers to kill him, the problem lies with the city lord this was something he was sure of but what was it? Did his clan have enmity with the city lord of Maple Leaf City? The more he thought, the more puzzled he became.
Feng Yun was ready or strong enough to fight with the city lord directly right now, otherwise, he would march into the city lord's mansion and ask these himself. But that day was not far away, he just had to get stronger faster.
"Is this your first time fighting and killing someone?" While Feng Yun was lost in thought, Luo Shanyuan asked tentatively.
"Yes."
"Thought so!"
"You shouldn't be lenient to your enemies. " Luo Shanyuan advised Feng Yun.
"I will remember this next time." Feng Yun nodded seriously.
"I watched your fight, you are quite good. Where did you learn those skills?" Luo Shanyuan expressed admiration for Feng Yun's strength. He watched Feng Yun's fight, he was impressed by his strength and techniques. Despite having the cultivation of 2nd layer of the Core Formation Realm, he defeated six men without sustaining any injury, and two of the men had higher cultivation than him.
"My teacher taught me." Feng Yun replied with a soft smile.
"Hmm, you have a good master." Luo Shanyuan said, feeling curious about his master.
At this time, Luo Shanyuan turned around to leave, but Feng Yun called out, "Senior, wait a second?"
Luo Shanyuan stopped and looked at Feng Yun and asked, "What is it?"
Feng Yun took out a small vial and gave it to the old man before saying, "Give my thanks to the Princess. Thanks for this time."
The old man looked into the vial containing two pills, he couldn't identify them but could tell that they were expensive and rare. "There is no need for this, you saved the Princess's life."
"Senior, don't refuse, this is my way of thanking the Princess. These pills are highly beneficial to the Princess, you won't find them anywhere else." Feng Yun emphasized the last part.
"Oh, what kinds of pills are these?" Luo Shanyuan asked curiously.
In response, Feng Yun smiled mysteriously and said, "I can't explain, just let her try, you will understand later."
Luo Shanyuan pondered for a moment and decided to accept the pills on behalf of the Princess. These pills might help the Princess greatly. Of course, he was wary of Feng Yun doing something to the Princess. But so far, Feng Yun has not shown any signs of misdemeanor.
After that, Feng Yun looked at the two men, whose life and death were unknown. Then, he looked at his condition, he was stained with blood, and feeling uncomfortable. Interestingly, he did not feel the urge to vomit at present, as something within him had soothed his anxiety.
However, Feng Yun didn't know that after he left, someone came and disposed of the bodies of the men. He would have recognized the person, this person was none other than Chi Yang.
Feng Yun was roaming in the forest and started practicing his martial skills. Just like the previous day, he practiced his skills for a full day, returning to the city at dawn.
When Feng Yun came to the inn where he was staying, he found Li Shixin's driver waiting outside the inn, sent by Li Shixin to check up on him.
"Young master, you have returned." Upon seeing Feng Yun, he walked up to him and said he was feeling relief.
"Did aunt send you here?" Feng Yun inquired.
The driver nodded and said, "Madam Li is worried about your safety, she wants to know if you have returned safely."
"Okay, tell her I am fine." Feng Yun nodded.
"Young master, do you wish to change your inn, madam bought a small property close to the shop to live in for everybody." The driver said again.
"Oh! That is good." Feng Yun was a little surprised, he pondered for a moment and replied, "Well, I think about it, for now I am staying in this inn."
"As you wish, I will relay your message to madam."
"Young master, there is more. The shop is opening tomorrow, you should come." The driver spoke again.
"Hmm, I will be there." Feng Yun said. "She is not facing any problem with the shop, is she?"
"No, everything is going smoothly." He shook his head and said.
"Good." Feng Yun nodded.
After the driver came back, Feng Yun went to his room and took a refreshing bath. After bathing, he ordered a ton of food and enjoyed the lavish meals.
"Knock!"
Just as Feng Yun was about to lay down for a rest, someone knocked on his door.
'Who could it be? Is it aunt?' Feng Yun thought inwardly as he moved to open the door. He opened the door and found the middle-aged man standing outside.
"What do you need?" Feng Yun asked curiously.
"Princess wants to meet you." Chi Yang said flatly as he was giving the order.
