"Don't worry, I can't run. I'll accompany you at any time."
Du Feng responded enthusiastically and even puffed out his chest to show off his crest. His meaning was clear: I have the Linghu family's backing. I'm not someone that your Ram family can casually touch.
"Not bad, kid. As expected of someone chosen by Thirteenth Brother."
Linghu Yunpeng walked up and patted Du Feng's shoulder in approval. Previously, he had been squeezing his way through the crowd and did not feel like participating at all. Now that Linghu Yunce's guest elder won, he quickly came out to find a sense of participation.
"You are?"
Du Feng looked at the person in front of him. He looked very similar to Linghu Yunce. He was just a bit older and had a slightly wider face. In short, he was not handsome enough.
"I'm Yunce's third brother. My name is Linghu Yunpeng. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can look for me."
Linghu Yunpeng patted his chest as if it was real. Many people felt that he was very amazing. This time, the Linghu family embarrassed the Ram family's guest elder on the street. They had indeed gained face.
However, in Du Feng's opinion, this Linghu Yunpeng was only so-so. You didn't stand up when I was being picked on earlier. After I agreed, you stood up and flaunted your prowess, making it seem like you took the credit. But this person was Linghu Yunce's third brother. He had to give him face.
"Oh, so it's Young Master Yunpeng. It's an honor to meet you!"
Du Feng hurriedly put on a look of sudden realization. He did not forget to curry favor with Linghu Yunpeng.
"No need to be so polite. Just call me third brother in the future. Don't worry, with third brother here, no one can touch you. "
Linghu Yunpeng was in a good mood today. He actually addressed Du Feng as brother. Under normal circumstances, guest elders' status was lower than the main family's. When meeting the main family's people, they would have to address them as master, young master, young master, or young lady. This time, Linghu Yunpeng had given Du Feng enough face.
"In that case, I'll accept, third brother!"
Du Feng really knew how to push the boat with the current. He immediately addressed Linghu Yunpeng as third brother. There were so many people watching, and he was the one who said that he wanted to be brothers. He couldn't go back on his words.
"Good, good, very good."
Linghu Yunpeng was so happy that he was unable to conceal his smile. It was as if he had picked up a younger brother for free. Because Linghu Yunce was still unwilling to accept guest elders, he was not satisfied with one guest elder, he was also not satisfied with another guest elder. Now that he had finally taken a liking to Du Feng, his moves were indeed extraordinary and shocking the world with a single brilliant feat.
"Feel free to stroll around. I'll go talk to Thirteenth Brother."
Linghu Yunpeng knew that Du Feng had just arrived at the Silver City and needed to understand the surrounding situation. Thus, he allowed him to stroll around as he pleased, while he went to have a chat with Linghu Yunce. He wanted to ask him how he discovered this genius.
"Right, this is for you."
Just as Du Feng was about to turn around and take his leave, Linghu Yunpeng suddenly threw him a jade slip. This jade scroll contained a lot of information related to the Silver City. For example, the laws and regulations related to the matter just now, as well as various matters to take note of. He also learned about the various streets and shops in Silver City, as well as the surrounding environment and many other useful knowledge.
"Many thanks!"
Du Feng poured his divinity power into the jade slip and immediately learned the information inside. Originally, he wanted to go to a bookstore to buy books related to the Silver City to read. Interestingly, Linghu Yunce didn't give him a jade slip. Instead, it was Linghu Yunpeng who he just met.
Actually, the reason was very simple. Linghu Yunce felt that with Du Feng's ability, he would definitely be able to understand the relevant information. If he gave him a jade slip, it would mean that he didn't believe in his ability. Because Du Feng refused to become an advisor to the Shangguan family, Linghu Yunce felt that he was a proud person.
A proud person wouldn't easily accept gifts from others. It was also because of this that Linghu Yunce didn't give Du Feng a jade slip. He felt that it would be a kind of blasphemy.
But Linghu Yunpeng was different. He didn't know what kind of person Du Feng was. When he discovered that Linghu Yunpeng didn't understand the relevant information related to the Silver City, he casually gave him a book.
As a result, Du Feng didn't stand on ceremony and directly learned it. He wasn't as proud as Linghu Yunce imagined him to be. Why wouldn't he use a free jade slip? It saved him the trouble of going to a bookstore to buy one. Besides, if he went to a bookstore to buy one, the quality might not be as good as this.
"I say, thirteenth brother, why are you so stingy? You found such a talent, yet you're not even willing to give him a jade slip. "
Linghu Yunpeng went to Linghu Yunce's shrine and scolded him as soon as he entered. He felt that his thirteenth brother was really too stingy. He knew that his thirteenth brother was usually frugal, but he was too stingy. If he wanted to rope in a talent, he shouldn't be so stingy.
"Third brother, you said that he accepted your jade slip?"
Linghu Yunce still didn't dare to believe that an unruly person like Du Feng would accept a jade slip.
"Yes, he accepted it as soon as he heard that I was your third brother."
Linghu Yunpeng couldn't help but feel proud when he saw his thirteenth brother's shocked expression.
"Let me tell you, today's matter was too wonderful. It's a pity that you weren't there."
Then, he told the story of how Du Feng had humiliated the Foreign Chamberlain of the Gong Yang Family. Especially when he talked about how he had kicked the other party's balls, he laughed so hard that he couldn't stand straight.
"Eh …" Linghu Yunce coldly shouted when he heard that. This was completely different from his impression of the cold and arrogant Du Feng who didn't want to cause trouble. In fact, Linghu Yunce had called him to Silver City precisely because of this. He didn't expect that he would beat up the guest elder in less than a day.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy? Could it be that our Linghu Family's guest elder is being bullied without making a sound?"
Linghu Yunpeng asked when he saw that his thirteenth brother's expression wasn't right. However, his question was also reasonable. In that kind of situation, if Du Feng had swallowed the insult, the guest elder would have continued to provoke the Linghu Family and made the Linghu Family lose face. Du Feng had done that to protect the Linghu Family's face.
"Third brother, you misunderstood. He's not my guest elder, he's just a nominal one."
From the beginning, Du Feng had agreed with Linghu Yunce that he wouldn't be affiliated to any family. Only then did he agree to come to Silver City. The reason why he wore the Linghu Family's crest was to make it easier to move around in Silver City. Therefore, strictly speaking, he didn't need to protect the Linghu Family's face.
"I don't care. Third brother thinks highly of this person. If you don't want him, let him go to my place as a guest elder. I can double his salary. "
