Ch.60 - Ding Xiang injured


“What are you doing here?”


Xue Song asked confusedly. Tan Shuang on the other hand smiled bitterly hearing him and turned his head towards the entourage of people behind him.


“Do not say.”


Xue Song followed Tan Shuang's gaze and immediately guessed inwardly, however he saw some familiar faces among the entourage, Xue Song was sure all those people were the residents of Tan Village.


His expression became complicated, as the higher-ups of Xue Village, he knew well about what Tan Village had done in the past when Xue Village was still declining and shutting down.


Although Xue Song knew that the one responsible for all sorts of attacks was the higher-ups of Tan Village and not these innocent residents, he still could not let go of the bias against them.


“I know what's on your mind.”


Tan Shuang sighed softly and lowered his head. Ever since he learned that Xu Feng was actually the famous Protector of Xue Village, he had already prepared himself to accept the consequences for their actions in the past.


Even though it was Patriarch Tan Long alone who took the decision to attack Xue Village, Tan Shuang as the Elder would inevitably have to endure it as well. Tan Shuang knew that joining Xue Village would not be smooth.


Xue Song on the other hand shook his head, he did not want to think too much about it, everything now was up to a decision from Xu Feng.


“If the Protector brought these people to Xue Village, then there must be an intent behind it. I must not disappoint the wishes of the protector.” Inner Xue Song.


Xu Feng on the other hand was coolly chatting with Elder Zhao Quan, the old man clucked in awe when he realized the calmness and maturity of Xu Feng, the old man, he did not even see any signs of the arrogance of this young man despite his earth-shaking achievements.


“I don't understand why you don't stay in Falling Leaf Town alone, with your strength, any large faction will definitely accept you with a big smile.” Zhao Quan asked as they were walking into the gate, Xu Feng had already ordered Xue Song not to have to close the gate and let everyone in.


With his existence, no one would be able to mess up anymore in Xue Village.


“Chairman Zhao, you overestimated me.”


Xu Feng replied but his face was flat as a rock, his heart filled with endless fury. Everyone who was beside him could feel Xu Feng's anger, even Zhao Quan was shocked at the cold feeling emitted from Xu Feng's body.


“It seems that the one called Ding Xiang is an important person to him.” Zhao Quan's eyes narrowed slightly, there was an aura of wisdom within. It was not only Zhao Quan, Tan Shuang and everyone who was with them could understand it.


Just now, Xue Song had told him about Ding Xiang's condition which immediately caused Xu Feng's face to darken.


“Xue Song, you accompany Miss Tan Shuang to arrange for refugees. Remember, there can't be chaos!” Xu Feng gave the order.


Xue Song immediately nodded like an obedient chicken before leaving with Tan Shuang in a hasty move. Xue Song was honestly already a little scared in his heart because feeling it was his fault of not being able to protect Ding Xiang, he did not know how to explain it to Xu Feng who was a little more almost rampaging it.


“Hmm!”


“How dare you treat the young master of the Zhao Family like this?”


Zhao Jin pointed at Xu Feng rudely, he did not even bother to hide his contempt.


“Young master!” Before Xu Feng responded, Zhao Quan had already first reprimanded Zhao Jin, this kid had completely wiped everyone flat and treated him the same.


“Chairman, until when do you keep defending these little guys!?” Zhao Jin this time was already furious, he did not understand why Elder Zhao Quan, a Seventh Stage expert treated Xu Feng equally.


Zhao Quan directly boarded the apitam, his face dark, “Little person? She's she? Young master, do you know the consequences of talking like that to a Fifth Stage master?”


Zhao Quan said it in one breath and told the bodyguards to bring Zhao Jin into the carriage before Zhao Jin could digest his words.


“Junior Xu, I apologize for his childish behavior.” Zhao Quan cupped his hands and apologized, there was a deep disappointment in his eyes. He seemed to have to meet Patriarch Zhao personally to inform him of his son's already out-of-bounds behavior.


Even the great Zhao Family valued and respected the masters of the Fifth Stage greatly, those who had reached that stage were great people and had already gone through countless battles, he said, not many have made it to that point.


Let alone this was a talented young man like Xu Feng, Zhao Quan did not wish to offend someone capable of reaching the Fifth Stage at 18 years of age or the consequences could not be borne by the Zhao Family in the future.


“It's okay.”


Xu Feng waved, he honestly did not care, all he had in mind at the moment was Ding Xiang. Hearing Xu Feng's reply, Zhao Quan heaved a sigh of relief as well as admiration, talent was one thing, calmness and emotional mastery at such a young age were even more incredible things for Zhao Quan.


They then walked into the Clan Pavilion and towards the Villa, Zhao Jin this time never again got out of the carriage and brought trouble. The bodyguards escorting the carriage were even more obedient, they fell into their respective thoughts, trying to digest what Zhao Quan said when reprimanding Zhao Jin.


The information was too much for them.


“Protectors!”


Xue Yan who was guarding the Villa immediately saluted when Xu Feng arrived, her originally serious face became even more relaxed and calm, what happened during Xu Feng's departure weighed heavily on her, he even had to stand up a day overnight to guard Villa, afraid that someone would barge in and injure Ding Xiang who was inside.


“Very good.” Xu Feng looked exhaustedly at Xue Yan's face and patted her on the shoulder, he increasingly liked this guard.


Xu Feng then called the maid to entertain Zhao Quan and his entourage before heading to the room where Ding Xiang was lying.


“Protective greetings!” An old woman saluted when she realized Xu Feng's arrival, she was a healer in Xue Village. The faint fragrance of the plant herbs entered Xu Feng's nose as it entered, he saw various traditional medicine equipment lying on the table, the flames from the candles illuminating each of the equipment.


On the bed, Ding Xiang was still lying unconscious, the robe covering his body was not even removed, only one of his smooth and milk-white hands was visible.
