Chapter 56: Usurping
“We encountered an assassination on the way here. It was all thanks to Lin Feng’s help that we could get through the dangers time and time again.”
Li Qingxi’s words instantly changed the atmosphere in the room.
If there was still room for moderation earlier, right now, Lin Feng could feel the murderous intent from all directions.
Eh?
Lin Feng’s expression didn’t change. He didn’t waver in the slightest.
However, he was a little puzzled. Why did their attitudes change so much after hearing Li Qingxi’s words?
The concentrated killing intent was not fake at all. It was obvious that they really wanted to kill him.
Lin Feng looked at Li Yugang, who didn’t seem any different except her treacherous smile. He then looked at Li Yujie, who was moving stealthily, her muscles tense.
Interesting, is this a sneak attack?
Li Yugang pretended to cough. While covering her mouth, she gave Li Yujie a look to hold her horses.
The latter immediately understood her intentions and stopped moving.
However, Li Yujie didn’t let down her guard. Once Li Yugang gives the order, she would turn into a sharp blade and attack Lin Feng at any time.
“Qingxi, I didn’t hear you clearly just now. What did you say Lin Feng helped you with?”
Due to Li Yugang’s cough, Li Qingxi did not find anything unusual.
The surrounding murderous intent was directed at Lin Feng, so Li Qingxi didn’t sense anything amiss.
“Mother, this is something you don’t know. Lin Feng might look weak on the outside, but he’s surprisingly good at fighting. If he wasn’t a man, I would have thought he had practiced ancient martial arts.”
“A man?” Li Yugang’s expression turned contemplative. She looked at Lin Feng thoughtfully, and her gaze was no longer as passionate as before.
Sensing Li Yugang’s cold gaze, the spiritual energy in Lin Feng’s body circulated.
Although he was here to help, it didn’t mean that he wouldn’t do anything after having his kindness repaid with ingratitude.
Not to mention, he was not that close to Li Qingxi.
He was only doing this for the safety of his family and to ensure a stable life in the future. He had no choice but to help eliminate all kinds of detrimental factors that disrupted his daily life.
If one of these factors was the Li family, he would eliminate them without hesitation.
At this moment, Li Yugang and Li Qingxi’s conversation was still going on.
“But he’s a man?”
“Yeah, I was surprised at first too. I didn’t expect a man to be so powerful. I wonder how he did it?”
Looking at Li Qingxi who chattering on Lin Feng commented inwardly,
She usually seems to be a smart person, but why did she drop the ball at such a critical moment? Where did her ability to observe people’s expressions go?
“Oh, is that so?”
There was a hint of disappointment and guilt in Li Yugang’s voice. Even Li Qingxi could tell that something was wrong.
“Mother, what’s wrong?”
“It’s my fault, I did not tell you in advance.”
Upon hearing her mother’s words, Li Qingxi suddenly had a bad feeling.
Before Li Yugang went on, Li Qingxi heard a gust of wind move past her.
Li Yujie, who had received Li Yugang’s message, started moving.
“Aunt!”
Li Qingxi quickly turned around. As an ancient martial arts practitioner, she reacted at the first moment.
Even though she didn’t know why Aunt was attacking Lin Feng, she knew that if she didn’t stop her, her life would be in danger.
However, to Li Yugang and Li Yujie, Li Qingxi was behaving like this because she had been bewitched by Lin Feng.
To others, Li Qingxi was worried about Lin Feng.
And the only person who understood what Li Qingxi meant was none other than Lin Feng, who was being attacked.
“Don’t blame me for this!”
Lin Feng muttered under his breath. No one heard him.
Only Li Qingxi instantly understood what Lin Feng was talking about upon seeing him open his mouth.
“The core members of the Li family all happen to be here…”
“No!”
Now that the situation had abruptly changed, Li Qingxi could not figure out why things had suddenly turned out this way when everything was still fine earlier.
This made Li Qingxi, who was already feeling overwhelmed, feel even worse.
However, she had no choice but to understand the situation in front of her and think of a way to resolve it.
Lin Feng’s terrifying strength flashed across her mind, and Li Qingxi was filled with fear.
It is impossible to defeat him.
Even if the Li family gathers all their forces, it is impossible to suppress Lin Feng in terms of combat ability.
In this case, there is only one way out.
Li Qingxi clenched her teeth. In less than a second, she quickly thought of a solution.
Perhaps there was an even better way to deal with it, but Li Qingxi did not have time to think right now.
Just as Li Yujie was about to hit Lin Feng, Li Qingxi’s voice reverberated throughout the villa.
“In Li Qingxi’s name, my servants are to come over quickly and control Li Yugang and Li Yujie’s former subordinates!”
Once a new leader replaced an old one, Li Qingxi, as the future head of the family, would similarly nurture her own loyal subordinates.
The ones she brought with Lin Feng before were only a part of them.
Although Li Qingxi’s subordinates were not as powerful as Li Yugang, they were not to be underestimated.
No matter what, these people were the future pillars of the Li family.
With her command, many figures rushed in from outside windows and doors.
Lin Feng scanned through them and realized that most of them were familiar faces.
Both Li Yugang and Li Yujie were stunned upon hearing Li Qingxi’s command.
Fortunately, as the leaders of the Li family, they were not to be trifled with. They quickly reacted.
“Qingxi, do you know what you’re doing?”
Li Yujie gave up on attacking Lin Feng and rushed to Li Yugang’s side.
Li Qingxi didn’t even look at Li Yujie. Instead, her gaze fell on a beautiful woman dressed in white.
“People from the medical team, get out!”
Li Qingxi was speaking to the head of the medical team, Li Lian.
She first glanced at Li Yugang and Li Yujie before surveying Li Qingxi. A bright smile appeared on her face.
Li Lian didn’t say anything. She only gave her subordinates a look.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and left the room under Li Yugang and Li Yujie’s astonished gazes.
Li Yugang was stunned at first. Then, she looked around and suddenly understood something.
Her cold gaze landed on Lin Feng. Li Yugang was furious.
“It’s you!?”
