Chapter 1106 Watch how I deal with them
Lin Feng forced a smile: "Brother, give me a message and say that Mu Chuan has come to pay his respects to Manager Duan."
A burly man looked him up and down, then frowned.
"Who are you? And why do you want to see my master?"
"I'm friends with Manager Duan. As long as you say you're here to see Mu Chuan, she'll know."
The burly man's eyes widened instantly, his face filled with confusion.
Their master, Master Duan, must be over fifty years old, while the man in front of them is probably no more than thirty. How could they possibly be friends?
But what should I do if they give their name?
He turned to look at the man standing at the very back.
"Wait, then."
The man was clearly experienced in handling such matters; he simply uttered a single sentence and then turned and entered through the side door.
Lin Feng could only stand quietly by the door, waiting for Duan Jingqiu to come out.
After waiting for a while without any movement, Lin Feng became a little impatient, so he released his consciousness and scanned the inner courtyard of the Duan residence.
Such a large house is easy to find. The main house is easy to identify, as is the center of the courtyard or any place that looks more upscale.
Inside the Duan family mansion, in the study of Second Master Duan, Second Master Duan and Lu Fang were still sitting facing each other, talking, while a steward-like person stood outside the door.
Lin Feng couldn't find Duan Jingqiu. He searched all the luxurious rooms in the Duan mansion, but still couldn't find Duan San Niang.
How did you do it?
Did he go out to inspect her territory after taking over as head manager?
Lin Feng pondered this with a sense of unease.
Just as they were about to look away, they suddenly saw an iron stake standing in front of a low house in the backyard. There was a chain on the stake, and a ragged man with his neck chained was cowering on the ground to the side.
Because of a familiar aura, Lin Feng paid attention and then discovered that the man actually had a wooden face.
Lin Feng's mouth dropped open in utter astonishment.
What the fuck is going on?
At this moment, the man who brought the news had already hurried out from the side door, searching everywhere for Lin Feng's figure.
But he found that the person had already left, so he could only frown, mutter to himself, and shrink back inside.
Lin Feng was now standing in front of Wooden Face, squatted down, and touched Wooden Face's forehead with his hand.
The wooden-faced man was startled and tried to stand up, but he fell back down.
He had clearly suffered a serious injury.
When he realized that the person in front of him was Lin Feng, he opened his mouth but could not make a sound, yet his face was filled with undisguised indignation.
Lin Feng reached out and pinched the chain, breaking it with a little force, and then checked the injuries on Wooden Face's body.
Fortunately, they were all superficial injuries. Although they looked scary, they wouldn't cause permanent disability or death.
Unable to obtain information from Wooden Face, Lin Feng could only search for Song Chen and the others again.
It turned out that Song Chen and Xu Qi were both imprisoned in a dungeon in the backyard, and were beaten so badly that they were on the verge of death.
Their injuries were far more severe than those of Woodface.
It's possible that Master Duan hated him for kidnapping his daughter, which is why he took such drastic measures.
Lin Feng is now concerned about where Duan Jingqiu went.
However, before he could find Duan Jingqiu, he sensed that the broken sword behind him was a little unstable, with a much weaker rhythm than usual, so much so that Lin Feng did not notice it.
This means that a cultivator has appeared in the vicinity.
As the broken sword warned, this cultivator could only be considered a third-generation disciple of a reclusive sect, far inferior to Kuroda Shika and Yan Jin.
They were worlds apart from the gaunt old man.
Lin Feng ignored the warning from the broken sword and continued to scan the Duan residence.
Finally, in an inconspicuous corner of the vast Duan mansion, there was a small, isolated courtyard, overgrown with weeds, clearly abandoned for many years.
Inside the house, Duan Jingqiu was seen leaning against the earthen bed, looking utterly hopeless, her expression blank, seemingly half-asleep.
Lin Feng patted the wooden-faced man on the shoulder, telling him to wait there, while he himself quickly went to the small courtyard.
I pushed open the door and stepped inside.
Duan Jingqiu was truly despondent. She was under house arrest here and not allowed to do anything. Her father made her thoroughly reflect on her mistakes until she genuinely admitted her wrongdoing.
When someone entered, Duan Jingqiu didn't even open his eyes and ignored them completely.
Lin Feng sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and sighed.
"Manager Duan, how did it get into such a state?"
Duan Jingqiu was lost in thought when he heard that familiar voice. He trembled and opened his eyes, staring at Lin Feng without blinking.
A moment later, large tears streamed from her eyes, and her heaving chest rose and fell rapidly.
The next moment, she cried out in anguish, "Muchuan..."
She turned over and pounced on Lin Feng, hugging him tightly with both hands and bursting into tears.
Lin Feng gently patted her back without saying anything to comfort her, simply waiting quietly for her to calm down.
Half an hour later, Duan Jingqiu, who had been sobbing uncontrollably, finally suppressed his excitement, raised his tear-streaked face, and looked at Lin Feng.
"Mr. Kikawa, where have you been? I... I almost... never saw you again..."
Lin Feng smiled calmly: "We've met again, haven't we? Get up and let's talk properly. What's going on here?"
Duan Jingqiu blushed and stood up to wipe away the tears on her face.
"Everything was normal until the crucial moment when my grandfather spoke up to stop me from taking over the Duan family business and imprisoned me here, telling me to repent and start anew."
"Your grandfather?"
"Yes, I've only seen him once since I was a child. He never leaves the backyard, but he is still the head of the Duan family. My father has to consult him before making any important decisions."
"How come I've never heard of this before?"
"Because he hadn't been seen for many years, everyone had forgotten about his existence."
Lin Feng frowned and pondered for a moment.
"Your grandfather was a cultivator?"
Duan Jingqiu shook his head: "I don't know about that."
"Otherwise, with Wooden Face and Song Chen's abilities, no one in the Duan family should be able to deal with them."
Duan Jingqiu quickly asked, "What happened to Song Chen and Wooden Face?"
"It's pretty miserable."
Duan Jingqiu said sadly, "I don't even know if they're alive or dead. They're lucky to have survived."
Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief, suppressing the irritation in his heart.
Since the gaunt old man bled him out, and he replenished his true energy and essence with the broken sword, his true energy and essence were probably much purer after being refined by the broken sword, which prevented Lin Feng from losing himself.
These negative emotions are also relatively easy to control.
"It's not that your father doesn't want to kill you, it's probably because you made a public return, and to avoid suspicion, he needs to wait a while before he can take action."
Lin Feng analyzed coldly.
Duan Jingqiu shook his head: "I think he's afraid you'll come back for revenge, that's why he doesn't dare to kill me."
Lin Feng nodded in agreement. This woman was very calm and had a clear mind. There was a reason why she could manage her business so successfully.
"Yes, if I completely disappear, you'll be in danger."
"Sir, what should we do?"
Lin Feng laughed: "What do you mean, what to do? Let's get him!"
Although he seemed carefree, he was actually holding back his anger. You nouveau riche, how dare you bully people like this? Who do you think you are?
"You just wait here and see how I deal with them."
Lin Feng got up to leave, but Duan Jingqiu grabbed his collar.
"Sir, please control yourself. Some people cannot die."
Lin Feng nodded: "I know what I'm doing, please wait a moment."
After saying that, he gently patted Duan Jingqiu's hand to make her let go, and then slipped out of the room.
