This birthday banquet came to a complete end after Han Feng displayed his power over the wind.
Many people present had mocked Han Feng, and now they wished they could tuck their tails between their legs and leave as quickly as possible.
Moreover, many tables, plates, and other items at the venue had been blown over. Lin Shihan apologized to everyone and personally saw each guest out.
“Don’t worry, Brother Han Feng.
I’ll return to the dormitory with Ruxue and the others later.”
After Lin Shihan had seen off all the guests, she spoke softly to Han Feng.
“I’m truly sorry for ruining your birthday dinner.”
Han Feng said apologetically.
“Not at all!
They were the ones being aggressive!”
Lin Shihan waved her hands repeatedly, then suddenly became somewhat bashful:
“Oh, right. I really like the gift you gave me.”
Lin Shihan touched the prayer bead bracelet. It was the most expensive and most beloved gift she had ever received in her life!
“That’s good.
I’ll leave Ruxue in your care.
I’ll head back first.”
After this incident, Han Feng could rest assured about Han Ruxue’s life at Binhai University.
Lin Shihan would certainly take good care of her.
“Then, take care, Master Han.
If we get the chance, let’s have a meal together again.”
Lin Shihan said softly.
Wang Feipeng watched from the side, not daring to utter a single word.
Lin Jianzhong had also changed his mind this time—perhaps marrying his daughter to a grandmaster like this would not be a bad idea?!
……
After leaving the Lin Family Manor, Han Feng did not return home immediately. Instead, he took out his mobile phone, opened the navigation, and searched for the location on Master Wu’s name card.
The map showed that it was a restaurant.
Could a restaurant be the headquarters of a sect?
Han Feng found it rather perplexing.
He thought that since he had nothing else to do, he might as well go take a look at that sect.
If he encountered something he needed, he could exchange some of the magical artifacts he had cheaply made for it.
Once he had decided, he acted immediately. It was only nine in the evening, so there was still plenty of time.
Han Feng did not choose to take a taxi. Running was also a form of cultivation.
Besides, given his current running speed, in Binhai with its countless traffic lights, he might not necessarily be slower than a taxi.
In the end, he arrived at the restaurant called the Xuan Shi Sect.
The restaurant was only three stories high, with an antique appearance. A layer of wooden boards had even been attached to the outside of its brick walls to make it look deliberately aged.
This certainly had the style of those Feng Shui grandmasters.
However, the place seemed to be closed for the night.
Just as Han Feng was preparing to slip inside and take a look, a BMW Mini suddenly stopped behind him. A strikingly valiant beauty got out, and after seeing Han Feng, she froze for a moment. “What are you doing here?”
Han Feng turned around and saw that it was Ye Binglan, who had repeatedly targeted him in the interrogation room. He replied irritably, “Just looking around.”
Today, Ye Binglan had taken off her uniform and was wearing hot pants and a white top, accentuating her perfect figure. She was also carrying a case in her hand.
“Looking around?”
Ye Binglan’s gaze was extremely sharp. “You aren’t here because you were tricked into coming, are you?”
“Tricked into coming?”
Han Feng frowned. “What do you mean?”
“When I was investigating Old Black last time, I inadvertently uncovered a hidden lead.”
Ye Binglan said indifferently, “Blind Guo and the others are their underlings. Behind them is a Xuan Shi Sect that specializes in deceiving people through superstition.
They have already swindled more than a dozen elderly people, illegally earning over a million yuan!
I came today specifically to obtain evidence of their crimes.”
Ye Binglan patted the case in her hand. “What do you think? You’re so skilled—why don’t you come with me?”
Ye Binglan knew that Han Feng had a grudge against Blind Guo, so he definitely could not be a member of the Xuan Shi Sect.
She had come alone to collect evidence today, and to be honest, she felt somewhat uncertain.
Besides, she had happened to encounter Han Feng. This was the perfect opportunity to see his skills and learn more about the martial arts secrets of this Han Feng.
Han Feng immediately became interested as well.
The people of this Xuan Shi Sect were actually all con artists?
But they seemed to possess some real abilities!
Then did they have anything related to cultivation in their possession?
Han Feng thought for a moment. “Is there a reward for helping good citizens?”
“If you help me secure the evidence, I can apply for one on your behalf.”
“How much?”
“Ten thousand.”
“I’m in.”
What Han Feng lacked was money.
Ye Binglan smiled. “I take back what I said to you earlier in the interrogation room.
Even poor people can earn clean money through their own abilities.
I’ve been judging you through colored glasses this whole time.
Once this matter is settled, I’ll apologize to you and treat you to a meal.”
Han Feng also knew that Ye Binglan was not a bad person, so he nodded.
He could both earn money and learn about the Xuan Shi Sect. Why not?
With that, the two of them entered the restaurant together.
After entering the first floor, they saw two people guarding the stairway.
When they saw Ye Binglan enter, they compared her to the photograph in their hands. “Miss Ye, right? Please come in!
And who is this?”
“The person carrying my case.
I’m just a weak woman; I can’t carry that much money.”
Ye Binglan pretended to be delicate and helpless.
The two men glanced at the case in Han Feng’s hands, nodded, and, without asking many questions, let the two of them enter.
No wonder Ye Binglan had come alone. It turned out she had been unable to find an excuse for bringing someone along.
Perhaps she had seen him outside and had only then suddenly thought of using the case-carrying excuse.
That tigress had probably never once regarded herself as a woman unable to carry a case.
After entering the third floor, they saw a middle-aged man in a white robe sitting behind a tea table.
The man’s hair was graying, and there was a somewhat sinister aura around him.
He laughed heartily at Ye Binglan, but there was also a trace of coldness in that laughter:
“Miss Ye! Please, come in. Sun has been awaiting you for quite some time!
Someone!
Pour tea for Miss Ye!”
Ye Binglan took her seat and said with a smile:
“There’s no need to pour tea.
I need to complete the transaction immediately, and I have to leave as soon as it’s done.”
“Oh, come on! Have a sip!
You are our major client!
This is fresh Longjing tea I specially brought from Hangzhou.
It would be terribly discourteous if you left without drinking even a sip.”
Sun Shicheng said with a smile.
That smile was exceedingly fake.
Unable to refuse, Ye Binglan drank the tea in her cup. “Let me see the magical artifact you mentioned!”
“How did Miss Ye learn of our Xuan Shi Sect?
And without even inspecting the goods, you came straight here to purchase two million yuan worth of magical artifacts. What exactly are you planning to do?”
Sun Shicheng asked with a faint smile.
Ye Binglan’s delicate brows knitted slightly.
“What does that have to do with you?”
“Nothing.
But Miss Ye, I’m afraid you did not come for the magical artifacts, did you?”
Sun Shicheng sneered. “If I’m not mistaken, that case should contain a voice recorder and miniature cameras!
Miss Ye, I admire your courage in venturing here alone!”
As soon as Sun Shicheng finished speaking, more than a dozen burly men appeared at the entrance and from behind the folding screen behind him!
Ye Binglan’s expression changed drastically!
She had been exposed!
