“Let me introduce everyone. This is my good friend, Mr. Ye Feng.”
Yu Fengsheng brought Ye Feng into the banquet and introduced him to everyone.
All the leaders of the big gangs nodded politely at Ye Feng.
For people like them who were in the martial world, of course, they had to be friendly and make money. Moreover, the other party was Yu Fengsheng’s friend, so they had to give him some face.
Ye Feng smiled in response to everyone’s goodwill.
Yu Fengsheng’s next move shocked everyone present.
She actually allowed Ye Feng to sit on the main seat, and her attitude was very respectful.
That kind of attitude didn’t seem like they were friends. It was more like… The relationship between a superior and a subordinate.
Ye Feng only sort of declined before sitting on the main seat.
Yu Fengsheng sat on his right hand, while Ah Can sat on his left.
Everyone looked at each other.
Yu Fengsheng was already the overlord of Jiangzuo’s underground society, but she was actually very respectful to the young man.
From this, it could be seen that the background of this young man in front of them was probably even more terrifying than they had imagined.
This made them even more cautious. It was best not to offend such a person if possible. Otherwise, it would only be bad for them.
Yu Fengsheng then called for everyone to drink and eat.
Under her intentional matchmaking, the banquet was very lively.
After three rounds of wine, she put down her glass and looked at everyone present. “The reason why I invited everyone here today is Mr. Ye’s intention. He has some things to discuss with you.”
Everyone stopped eating and looked at Ye Feng curiously.
Of course, they knew that Yu Fengsheng’s invitation to invite them here was not as simple as treating them to a meal.
However, they did not expect that Mr. Ye would benefit from it.
Ye Feng also put down his wine cup, and he had a faint smile on his face. “I believe that everyone has heard that a tomb is about to be unearthed in Jiangzuo, that’s why everyone’s gathered here?”
He didn’t waste any time and went straight to the point.
Everyone looked at each other again, not knowing how to answer.
At this moment, a man sitting next to Yu Fengsheng spoke first, “We are indeed here for this tomb. What advice does Mr. Ye have?”
Ye Feng looked toward the source of the voice and saw that it was a man in his fifties. His head was a little bald, which was barely covered with a few strands of hair.
On the bridge of his nose was a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, making him look like a cultured person.
He was rolling two walnuts in his palm, which never left his hand when he was eating.
The seats in the banquet were not arranged randomly. The closer the seat was to the host, the more noble the guest’s status was.
For this person to be able to sit beside Yu Fengsheng, it proved that he had the highest status among this group of people.
Ye Feng valued this person very much, and he immediately asked politely, “May I know your name?”
“My surname is Jin, and my first name is Shan.” The man replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
“Jin Shan, gold mountain? Good name!” Ye Feng could not help but praise, but this person still had an indifferent expression, he did not show any reaction to his praise.
At this moment, Yu Fengsheng introduced them. “Uncle Jin is the most respected senior of the Steal Sect in Jiangzuo. He has more than a hundred disciples and grand disciples under him.”
That was a huge group of thieves.
Ye Feng muttered in his heart, but his attitude became more respectful on the surface. “Then I will have to ask Uncle Jin to guide me in the future.”
Jin Shan cupped his fists at him and said indifferently, “I don’t dare to advise you, Mr. Ye, please tell us why you invited us here today.”
Seeing his attitude towards Ye Feng, Ah Can was about to fly into a rage.
But Ye Feng waved his hand at him, telling him to calm down.
Only then did Ah Can return to his seat. However, he looked at Jin Shan with an unfriendly gaze. He really wanted to find an opportunity to experience Master Jin’s methods.
Ye Feng pondered for a moment before continuing. “To be honest, I also want to enter this tomb.”
Jin Shan picked up the wine cup in front of him and took a sip before slowly putting it down. “You can enter if you want to. Why do you need to tell us? The opportunities are all equal. Everyone will compete based on their abilities.”
Ye Feng had a smile on his face as he stared at his wine glass. “But I hope that all of you will withdraw from this competition.”
“Swoosh…”
The originally lively private room instantly quieted down, and everyone looked at Ye Feng in shock and anger.
However, because of Yu Fengsheng’s sake, no one opened their mouths to scold for the time being.
Jin Shan glanced at Ye Feng, before shifting his gaze to Yu Fengsheng. “Boss Yu, what does your friend mean by this?”
Yu Fengsheng waved her hand. “This is a matter between you all. I’m only in charge of organizing the banquet. I don’t care about anything else.”
She made her stance clear, and now, everyone no longer showed mercy, they started to attack Ye Feng.
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by you want us to withdraw from the competition? Why?”
“That’s right. This time, the opening of the great tomb is a rare opportunity. Everyone will compete based on their abilities. Why should we withdraw?”
“This person is too arrogant. He wants us to withdraw with just one sentence. Who does he think he is?”
“Hehe, he is too overbearing. He is looking down on us…”
Everyone here was an untamed thief, facing Ye Feng’s unreasonable request, and they were all furious.
Jin Shan waited for everyone to finish venting before he slowly said, “Mr. Ye, we’re only having this meal with you because of Boss Yu. But don’t you think your request is a little too much?”
Ye Feng raised his wine cup and sniffed it. “Is it too much? I don’t think so. I was saving you all.”
Jin Shan narrowed his eyes and stared at him. “What do you mean?”
Ye Feng took a sip of wine and took another bite of West Lake Fish as his gaze slowly swept across everyone.
“Because it’s not too late for you to back out now. If you don’t know what’s good for you, your lives might be in danger.”
As soon as he said this, the private room fell silent for a moment, and then everyone exploded.
More curses followed.
“Arrogant, too arrogant. Do you really think we’re scared?”
“Hehe, is this kid going to make an enemy out of all of us? Does he know the consequences of doing this?”
“I have been in the martial world for decades. You, a brat who is still wet behind the ears, dare to show off in front of me? Who gave you the guts?”
“Boss Yu, it’s not that we don’t want to give you face. It’s just that this brat is too arrogant…”
Ye Feng’s words angered everyone, they were now united against a common enemy.
However, Ye Feng remained calm in the face of the crowd’s anger. He even had a faint smile on his face as he ate slowly.
His actions confused Yu Fengsheng.
Even if he wanted these people to withdraw, his attitude should be better. As long as he gave them enough benefits and gave her face, there might be a chance.
However, this guy had bombarded everyone with his demands right away, isolating himself and making everyone his enemy.
This was simply courting death.
