Chapter 661: Chapter 659: Assassination Attempt (Seventh Update)

"I feel incomparably lighter, and my mind is a hundred times clearer!"

Tang Shihai said calmly, looking at Xiao Yifeng, "Young brother, thank you. You’ve really done me a huge favor this time!"

"There’s no need for formality, Sect Leader Tang, you can just call me Little Feng. Miss Tang is my friend, and it’s only right for me to help!"

Xiao Yifeng spoke with an indifferent expression on his face.

"Little Feng, from now on, you are a friend of our Tang Sect. You can come to me with anything, and I owe you a big favor!"

Tang Shihai said, his face filled with gratitude.

"Thank you, Tang Sect Leader!"

Xiao Yifeng smiled, knowing that the Tang Sect had no small influence in the Martial Arts World, and as his own wings were not yet full, it was naturally beneficial to be on good terms with them.

"Shengyi, go call everyone else in!"

Tang Shihai commanded, and immediately Tang Shengyi called in Tang Shihe and the others waiting outside.

"Big brother, how are you feeling?"

"Is the Sect Leader alright?"

Tang Shihe and the Tang Sect Elders asked one after another.

Yao Haoran’s gaze had been fixed on Tang Shihai the whole time, his brow furrowing deeply.

"My body is fine now, all the poison has been cleaned out. I feel incredibly relaxed,"

Tang Shihai said with a smile.

"Big brother, are you really okay now?"

Tang Shihe’s face changed, and he couldn’t help asking again.

"Uncle, do you wish for my father to be in trouble?"

Tang Shengyi cast a glance at Tang Shihe and said in a deep voice.

"Of course not, I’m just a bit worried, that’s all!"

Tang Shihe said with an awkward smile, quickly shaking his head.

"I’m sure I’m alright now, and Little Feng has become a great benefactor to our Tang Sect this time."

Tang Shihai looked at Xiao Yifeng with an expression full of praise.

Yao Haoran, on the other hand, had a look on his face that was extremely unpleasant, with a cold glint flashing in his eyes, his fists clenching involuntarily.

"Father, shouldn’t we now find out who is behind these two poisoning incidents? Whoever it is, they understand poisons that even our Tang Sect experts are unaware of, and managed to poison you. Clearly, the opponent is no ordinary person. If we do not root them out, I’m afraid there will be a next time!"

Tang Shengyi said in a serious tone.

"Hmm!"

Tang Shihai nodded and looked at Tang Shihe and the other Tang Sect Elders, "Starting now, I want you to thoroughly investigate the Tang Sect and find out the real culprit behind these poisonings, we must not let them off!"

"Yes!"

Tang Shihe and the other Tang Sect Elders all said, bowing their heads.

"Alright, it’s getting late, Shengyi, have someone prepare a banquet. I want to properly thank Little Feng, and Young Master Yao, you should join us as well!"

Tang Shihai said, turning his gaze towards Yao Haoran.

"No, I have matters to attend to and must leave now. I wish Uncle Tang a speedy recovery, and I will visit another day!"

Yao Haoran said, then turned and left the place.

"Big brother, I’ll see Young Master Yao out!"

Tang Shihe said, following him out.

Outside Tang Manor, Tang Shihe looked at Yao Haoran and said, "Young Master Yao, what should we do now?"

"I hadn’t expected this kid to truly be capable, If I had known earlier, I would have had someone get rid of him once and for all, so this situation wouldn’t have arisen."

Yao Haoran’s expression was cold as he spat out those words, his eyes flashing with a chilling glint.

"Proceed as I said before, act immediately, and make sure to take care of the other party. I will arrange everything else!"

Yao Haoran said coolly before he left the place directly.

Afterward, Xiao Yifeng joined Tang Shihai and Tang Shengyi for a meal. They treated Xiao Yifeng as an honored guest of the Tang Sect and invited him to stay for a few more days.

Xiao Yifeng didn’t refuse. The location of Tang Sect was abundant with nature’s spiritual energy, indeed a great place for cultivation, and besides, Ye Yaxin’s anger had not yet subsided. Xiao Yifeng wanted to wait a few days for her anger to slowly ebb away.

As time passed, night fell.

The moon was bright and the night sky was sprinkled with stars.

Tang Manor fell into silence.

Xiao Yifeng was in his room cultivating with the Nine Stars Tyrant Body Art. The spiritual energy and Star Energy around him surged into his body, tempering his flesh, impacting his acupoints, and enhancing his realm.

Each cultivation session required Xiao Yifeng to improve in three aspects, which showed just how immense the energy needed for his cultivation was.

After an indeterminate amount of time, a masked man in black appeared silently outside Xiao Yifeng’s room, pressing his body close to the door and lighting a long incense, inserting it through the crack at the bottom of the door.

As the incense burned, wisps of smoke filled the room swiftly.

Half a minute later, the man in black managed to open the door and darted inside, only to see Xiao Yifeng lying on the bed.

The man in black produced a dagger in his hand and walked straight toward the Xiao Yifeng who was on the bed.

When the man in black got to the bedside and saw the unconscious Xiao Yifeng, a flash of murderous intent shone in his eyes as he thrust his dagger down.

Swish!

The next second, Xiao Yifeng’s tightly shut eyes suddenly flew open, startling the man in black.

Thud!

A dull sound echoed as Xiao Yifeng kicked out, sending the assailant flying. The man crashed into a table, toppling it, and fell onto the floor.

Xiao Yifeng stood up from the bed, his eyes sweeping coldly toward the man in black.

"You’re unharmed?"

The man in black, seeing Xiao Yifeng completely fine, filled his eyes with shock.

What he had just ignited was a special type of knockout incense that even a Condensing Qi realm strong one would immediately pass out upon smelling, and holding one’s breath would not prevent its effects.

"You thought such child’s play could work on me? You must really think I’m a three-year-old child. Speak, if you don’t want to die: who sent you?"

Xiao Yifeng’s cold command resonated, his eyes flashing with a sharp cold light.

"Not talking, huh?"

Xiao Yifeng snorted coldly and walked toward the man in black.

Swish!

With a swift motion, the man in black waved his hand at Xiao Yifeng, spreading a dense black fog that quickly obscured Xiao Yifeng’s vision while filling the air with potent poison.

Xiao Yifeng’s Starforce erupted instantly, shielding his body. He unleashed a punch and the terrifying force obliterated the black fog. The man in black had already vanished from the room, and Xiao Yifeng immediately gave chase.

"What’s going on?"

Tang Shengyi happened to come by, looking at Xiao Yifeng, who was hastily running out, completely puzzled.

"A man in black just tried to kill me, but when I tried to capture him, he released a cloud of poisonous fog and escaped. I was just coming out to search for him," Xiao Yifeng said gravely.
