Chapter 7: The Miserable Liu Long

The "Brother Fei" mentioned by Pan Long was a very ordinary-looking man dressed in an inconspicuous suit, appearing just like a regular small businessman. Moreover, he had come alone, without the reinforcements Ye Feng had imagined. This made Ye Feng even more anxious.

"Haha! I thought you had some ability, but it turns out you've just brought a coward! My little heart is so scared! I can't help it, let me laugh a bit more; my stomach can't take it." Liu Long had initially thought Pan Long would bring some formidable character, but the moment he saw the so-called Brother Long, he burst into laughter.

"Is it funny? Then laugh all you can now, because you won't have the chance later." Brother Fei frowned and gave Liu Long a cold look before walking towards Pan Long.

In his eyes, he wouldn't even bother giving Liu Long a proper look; in his words, interacting with such people would only degrade his own status.

"Long'er, you called me here just to deal with this kind of garbage? You think I have nothing better to do?" Brother Fei looked at Pan Long with displeasure and asked somewhat annoyed.

"How could I? Isn't he waiting for reinforcements? If he really brings some powerful character, wouldn't I be dead for real?" Seeing Brother Fei a bit angry, Pan Long answered with a smile.

"You little rascal! You always have your reasons." Brother Fei scolded with a laugh, then turned his gaze towards Ye Feng and asked curiously, "Who is this?"

"Brother Fei, this is a new friend I've just made. He is brilliant at gambling on stones. Today, I made over 6 million with his help." Seeing Brother Fei's interest in Ye Feng, Pan Long introduced him excitedly.

"Oh? Is that so?" Brother Fei was somewhat skeptical, raised an eyebrow, and extended his right hand towards Ye Feng. "I'm Xu Fei, Long'er's friend is my friend, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you, Brother Fei. I'm Ye Feng." Although Ye Feng couldn't yet tell how powerful Brother Fei was, he seemed to be one of those influential figures hidden behind the scenes, so he greeted him enthusiastically.

As they were conversing, a row of vans entered their sight and stopped in front of them. Ye Feng finally understood that the inevitable was bound to happen when he saw one thug after another armed with weapons descend from the vans.

"Haha! You're finished. If you dare to mess with Liu Long, I'll make sure you wish you were dead." Seeing his reinforcements finally arrive, a previously silent Liu Long came to life and started ranting, appearing very smug.

"Brother Qiang... Brother Qiang, these three are the ones, beat them to death; we can discuss the price later." Seeing several dozen people emerge from the van instantly, Liu Long ran up to a man wearing a jacket and said obsequiously.

"Don't worry! Picking on you, Ah Long, is like picking a fight with me, Brother Qiang." Brother Qiang patted his chest and led his underlings towards the trio. He wanted to see who had the nerve to mess with his 'money god'.

"This is..." The other two people didn't seem significant to Brother Qiang, but when he clearly saw Xu Fei, his heart thumped. "Why did it have to be this scourge?"

Although Xu Fei was usually very low-key, it didn't mean he was without influence, and his influence was indeed terrifying. In Longning City, there were hardly a few who could afford to offend him.

As someone who had been in the underworld for a very long time, Wang Qiang of course knew Xu Fei's background. Therefore, the moment he saw Xu Fei, he knew they were in trouble today.

"Brother Qiang, this bastard is way too arrogant. Later, I'll teach him a good lesson." Liu Long, being the waste that he was, naturally didn't notice that Wang Qiang's face had changed. He continued to speak arrogantly, and Wang Qiang wanted to stop him, but it was already too late.

"Shut the hell up! You want to die; I sure as hell don't want to die with you." Wang Qiang was almost driven mad with anger, raised his hand, and gave Liu Long a heavy slap, while loudly cursing at him.

"Fei… Lord Fei, what are you doing here?" After hitting Liu Long, Wang Qiang forced a smile and approached Xu Fei, speaking cautiously.

"I hear crossing Brother Qiang doesn't end well, is that right?" Xu Fei had clearly heard Wang Qiang's earlier yelling and asked with a displeased and stern voice.

"No… there's no such thing. Who's the bastard that said that? Come out, I swear I won't kill you." At that moment, Wang Qiang dared not admit it and began to play dumb, inadvertently cursing himself in the process.

"Is that man your brother? He has offended me, and now I am very angry. You know what you should do, right?" Seeing Wang Qiang like this, Xu Fei decided not to pursue it further. After all, they were all from the same underworld, leaving some room for face could be helpful in the future. So, he directed his anger towards Liu Long. He could let Wang Qiang go, but Liu Long was definitely not getting off easy.

"I know, don't worry, Lord Fei, I guarantee you'll be satisfied." Seeing that Xu Fei wasn't going further, Wang Qiang was relieved and immediately vowed by patting his chest.

"You guys, grab Liu Long and beat him up harshly. Damn it, daring to offend Lord Fei, he really doesn't want to keep mixing in this world." To appease Xu Fei, Wang Qiang immediately gave the order, and his henchmen acted promptly.

It must be said, Wang Qiang indeed had a way with his subordinates; they quickly gave Liu Long a severe beating. Hearing Liu Long's pitiful screams and seeing his painful appearance, Ye Feng's mood lightened considerably.

"Alright, bring him over to me. My being appeased isn't enough, my brother needs to be appeased too." That was enough, Xu Fei had no intention of pushing things to the extreme. Of course, to satisfy Pan Long, whether to continue the punishment, he left that to Pan Long's discretion.

"He hasn't just offended me, he has offended my brother. Let Xiao Feng decide!" Seeing Wang Qiang dump Liu Long in front of him, Pan Long laughed and shook his head, pointing at Ye Feng.

"Lord Feng! What would satisfy you to let him go? Just give the word, and we'll make it happen." At this point, Wang Qiang couldn't care about any gods of wealth and straight-up sold Liu Long out completely.

"Is this really up to me?" Ye Feng seemed a bit incredulous, rubbed his hands together, and asked nervously.

"Absolutely, Lord Feng, just say the word!" Wang Qiang was somewhat speechless but didn't dare offend Ye Feng and thus replied earnestly.

"What's his name again? Liu Nong? That name is really fucking disgusting." Having learned Liu Long's name, Ye Feng deliberately used an offensive tone to loudly mock him.

"Right! It really is disgusting. Who knows what his dad was thinking? I'll spit in his face."
