42. Leave

42. Leave

With a thud, Zhao Yihu's head fell to the ground and even rolled a bit.

Everyone was stunned, even Miss Zhang was having trouble believing what she had just seen.

Lin Fei had beheaded Zhao Yihu with just one swing of his saber!

Zhao Yihu was a powerful acquired martial artist, even if Miss Zhang had confidence in Lin Fei, this was too fast!

The bandits who were present were the first to panic. They didn't even think about avenging Zhao Yihu. If an acquired martial artist had even been killed, what chance would they have?

Thus, the bandits of the Black Cloud Gang dispersed and fled in all directions.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Only a few martial artists recruited by Second Master Zhang remained, but they were hesitant and didn't dare to approach.

Second Master Zhang's eyes turned red, and he shouted, "Quickly, he's only one! He's now exhausted!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fei's figure flashed like a ghost, and he had already arrived in front of him.

With the transcendent Flowing Clothes Skill, Lin Fei's footwork was truly extraordinary, especially in a narrow environment, where he was like a fish in water.

With a swish, Lin Fei swung his saber, and ten saber shadows flashed by.

Second Master Zhang couldn't resist at all, he just stared with wide eyes and a hint of fear on his face.

As death approached, he finally became afraid, but it was too late. His head fell to the ground, just like Zhao Yihu.

Days passed, and Lin Fei did not leave Luo City immediately. Instead, he waited for three more days. During that time, Miss Zhang gradually gained control over the Zhang family's businesses and completely took over them.

Lin Fei prepared to say goodbye to Miss Zhang. "Miss Zhang, since you've taken control of the Zhang family's businesses, I should take my leave now."

Miss Zhang looked a little tired, but her eyes still shone. She knew she couldn't keep Lin Fei forever; he would leave sooner or later.

"Thank you for staying at the Zhang Mansion these past few days, Lin Fei. If not for you, I wouldn't have been able to take control of the Zhang family's businesses in such a short time."

During that time, Miss Zhang also spread some information about Lin Fei. Such as Lin Fei was an inner disciple of the Nine Profound Sect and a patron of the Zhang family and so on.

With Lin Fei's presence, those who coveted the Zhang family and wanted to cause trouble would also fear him and not dare to act easily.

"Bring the silver bills over here."

Soon, the steward brought over the silver ticket. Lin Fei took a look and was surprised, "One hundred fifty thousand taels?"

Miss Zhang replied, "I decided to give you a year's patronage in advance. You've helped me so much. I've also counted the Zhang family's businesses during this time, and there was quite a bit of silver. So, I decided to give it to you all at once."

Lin Fei nodded and put away the silver bills. Miss Zhang had given him fifty thousand taels before, and with this one hundred fifty thousand, he now had two hundred thousand taels.

"I won't refuse then. If anything happens, send a letter to the Nine Profound Sect. Goodbye, Miss Zhang."

With that, Lin Fei turned and left on his horse, quickly disappearing from sight.

Watching Lin Fei's departing figure, Miss Zhang's eyes shone with a mysterious light. "It would be nice if you could stay forever, but you're not one to be satisfied with the mundane. Even if I were to give you everything I have, you still wouldn't stay..."

"Well, with Lin Fei as my patron, I can safeguard the foundation of the Zhang family at least..." Miss Zhang gritted her teeth, and her unrealistic thoughts vanished completely.
