The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1848 - 1845: Gesture of Goodwill

"Are you certain that person is within our Canglan Commerce?" Dao Chengzi said in a deep voice.

Although the Emperor Seal Chamber of Commerce was repelled, this doesn’t mean the matter is over. Dao Chengzi at least needs to understand the ins and outs of the situation, knowing for whom the Canglan Commerce took the blow; otherwise, this would be a muddled account.

"I’m sure!" At this point, Mu Feng could only admit it stubbornly.

"Alright, describe that person’s appearance to me. If I find out you’re deceiving me, don’t blame me for being unkind!" Dao Chengzi said coldly.

Mu Feng nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "I would never deceive Lord Dao Chengzi. I’ll deliver the portrait to you right now!"

Under Dao Chengzi’s gaze, Mu Feng quickly handed over Ling Feng’s portrait.

Seeing Ling Feng’s portrait, Dao Chengzi was taken aback: "This... how can it be him?"

Dao Chengzi is quite familiar with Ling Feng; were it not for him, Dao Chengzi wouldn’t have suffered a silent loss.

"It’s someone from the Cheng family, this is rather tricky!" After Mu Feng was taken away, Dao Chengzi rubbed his chin in contemplation: "However, it’s also a good opportunity."

The Head of Cheng Family and Ling Feng were discussing this battle when they suddenly heard of Dao Chengzi’s visit, which surprised them.

"Could it be he knows the person is me?" Ling Feng slightly furrowed his brow, recalling how Dao Chengzi framed him before, causing Ling Feng to have no fondness for him. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The Head of Cheng Family spoke indifferently: "Don’t worry, it’s alright, let’s see what he’s here for."

Dao Chengzi entered with a hypocritical smile: "Head of Cheng Family and Ling Feng, my dear nephew, truly are in leisure!"

Ling Feng glanced at Dao Chengzi indifferently without speaking, while the Head of Cheng Family lightly smiled: "What leisure? Just a mere Emperor Seal Chamber of Commerce, what’s there to be wary of?"

"Haha, indeed, compared to our Canglan Commerce, it’s truly nothing!" Dao Chengzi said with a smile: "However, I learned some potentially true or false news from the mouth of a captured member of the Emperor Seal Chamber of Commerce, and came to verify."

"Guild President, if you want to talk about the Emperor Seal Chamber’s dungeon incident, indeed I did it!" Ling Feng looked at Dao Chengzi with a hint of sarcasm: "Does the Guild President intend to arrest me and send me to the Emperor Seal Chamber?"

"Ling Feng, my dear nephew, you’ve overthought!" Hearing the sarcasm in Ling Feng’s words, Dao Chengzi showed no displeasure but kindly said: "You are one of us in Canglan Commerce, naturally you will be protected by us. The mere Emperor Seal Chamber really takes itself seriously, that’s laughable!"

Ling Feng was stunned, he didn’t expect Dao Chengzi to say these things. What was this amiable attitude about, did he eat something wrong?

"I know we had some unpleasantness before, but after all, it was a misunderstanding!" Dao Chengzi said: "Since Ling Feng, my dear nephew, is the son-in-law of the Cheng family, naturally, you are also one of us in Canglan Commerce. How could we let other small fry bully our people?"

Dao Chengzi’s change in attitude was somewhat strange; Ling Feng’s gaze showed suspicion, while the Head of Cheng Family seemed to understand something.

"Guild President, thank you for taking care of Ling Feng’s matters!" The Head of Cheng Family smiled and said: "If there’s anything you need from our Cheng family in the future, feel free to ask!"

"Haha, certainly!" Dao Chengzi received the response from the Head of Cheng Family, a bright smile spreading across his face: "The Cheng family is an indispensable part of our Canglan Commerce. We will certainly have deeper cooperation in the future, but this time I came to warn my dear nephew, the Emperor Seal Chamber might resort to covert tactics after their loss. Best to be on guard early!"

Ling Feng nodded: "Thank you, Guild President, for the reminder!"

Dao Chengzi chuckled: "But with the Head of Cheng Family here, my words seem somewhat redundant. I’ll go handle the Emperor Seal Chamber’s matters first."

After saying that, Dao Chengzi turned and left, leaving behind a puzzled Ling Feng.

"What’s the matter? Does Dao Chengzi’s behavior seem strange to you?" The Head of Cheng Family saw Ling Feng’s confused expression and smiled.

Ling Feng nodded: "I thought Dao Chengzi would use this opportunity to make trouble, but didn’t expect..."

"He did not make trouble because he understands our Cheng family’s status within Canglan Commerce!" The Head of Cheng Family said: "Moreover, if he wants to maintain his position as Vice Guild President, he must cultivate good relations with our core family members, otherwise, I have the power to dethrone him!"

Ling Feng was surprised; he didn’t expect the Head of Cheng Family to hold such a high position within the Commerce, while Dao Chengzi was the Vice Guild President!

However, Ling Feng also grasped Dao Chengzi’s intentions; he was offering goodwill! He didn’t want the Ling Feng affair to sour relations with the Cheng family, which wouldn’t benefit him in any way. And now, he’s using the entire Canglan Commerce’s power to shield Ling Feng, so in every sense, Ling Feng and the Cheng Family owe him a favor, a profitable maneuver for Dao Chengzi!

"Truly a crafty fox!" Ling Feng thought inwardly, but does he really believe that offering goodwill will erase past grievances? That’s laughable; Ling Feng is not so forgiving, especially since Dao Chengzi still holds something Ling Feng has always wanted: the mysterious Token!

Thus, harmony between Ling Feng and Dao Chengzi is destined to be impossible, unless Dao Chengzi hands over the Token to Ling Feng, which is evidently impractical.

However, Ling Feng felt troubled by the fact that he currently had no chance to deal with Dao Chengzi. After all, Dao Chengzi was also an expert at the Later Stage of the Firmament Realm, Ling Feng might not even be a match for him, so how could he possibly seize the Token from him?

"What a dilemma, truly a dilemma!" Ling Feng murmured to himself.

For the people of Canglan Commerce, the Emperor Seal Chamber’s affair wasn’t much of an issue as the difference between the two sides was rather significant. Moreover, news that Ling Feng was the culprit had not spread; it seemed to have been blocked by Dao Chengzi.

However, the situation wasn’t as simple as Dao Chengzi imagined; the Emperor Seal Chamber was merely an appetizer, while the real threat awaited them later!

Two days later, the Head of Cheng Family suddenly approached Ling Feng, his face heavy: "Ling Feng, I just received word that in less than an hour, we are to be surrounded!"

Ling Feng was shocked: "Surrounded? What’s going on?"

"Did I not mention that I secretly dispatched experts from the Cheng family to patrol around the airship?" the Head of Cheng Family said: "I just received news that a large number of powerful experts have burst through our patrol line, causing heavy casualties among our Cheng family experts. In less than an hour, they’ll reach this airship!"
