Stunning Dragon Wife

With the appearance of Zhang Xiaoshan, everyone's gaze was drawn to him, their eyes filled with confusion, surprise, and curiosity.

"Who is he?"

"Where did this kid come from, speaking like he's asking for death?"

"Following him is Hu Meng, a confidant of the Hu family. Could he be an ally of the Hu family?"

"What can a brat do to help the Hu family? Is he here to die?"

The people on Feng Tiangang's side looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with extreme mockery and disdain.

In just a few breaths, Zhang Xiaoshan arrived between the two groups.

"Miracle... Mr. Zhang... You, you're alive?"

Seeing Zhang Xiaoshan, Hu Lie was first delighted, then flustered.

"Divine Doctor Zhang, this is not the place for you, leave quickly; this matter has nothing to do with you."

Yes, Hu Lie knew that the death of Feng Tiangang's son had some connection with Zhang Xiaoshan. It was already a great fortune for Zhang Xiaoshan to barely escape death at Zhuxue Peak. If he faced Feng Tiangang at this moment, Feng Tiangang would spare no expense to kill Zhang Xiaoshan. That's why Hu Lie originally wanted to call Zhang Xiaoshan "Divine Doctor" but changed it promptly—to avoid revealing Zhang Xiaoshan's true identity and bringing disaster upon him.

He then scolded Hu Meng, saying,

"Hu Meng, you useless idiot, I just asked you to find his whereabouts; who told you to bring him to Snow Fox Mountain? He's a great benefactor of our Hu family, and you've put him in a dangerous place; isn't that repaying kindness with betrayal?"

Being scolded by Hu Lie, Hu Meng was equally annoyed, his face ashen.

"Brother, it's my fault, but I..."

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan spoke.

"It's not his problem; I insisted on coming here. Since you have some old ties with me, your Hu family treated me warmly. Knowing that your Hu family faces destruction, how can I ignore it? That would mean I'm not a good friend."

"Rest assured, since I came today, I'm obviously prepared and confident."

"Who exactly is this kid?"

"What kind of sacred being is he, that someone of Hu Lie's stature treats him with such respect?"

Yes, the Flying Fox Sect is a top-tier organization, especially having developed in the Northeast for over a hundred years, longer than the history of the New Country. In the Northeast, Hu Lie's position is paramount.

He naturally doesn't need to be polite to anyone; however, at this moment, he bows to a young man, which is unbelievably shocking.

Moreover, Zhang Xiaoshan spoke with great confidence. The situation for the Hu family is very unfavorable now, at a critical moment of life and death. Even Hu Lie, at the Qi Transformation Peak, was forced to consider suicide to save the Hu family's members. Yet a young brat claimed he could solve the problem—wasn't he talking nonsense?

"Brat, who the hell are you?"

Feng Tiangang, leading the rebellious side, glared viciously at Zhang Xiaoshan.

In those fierce eyes was a trace of worry.

If anyone in the crowd knew Hu Lie best, it was Feng Tiangang, even more than Hu Lie's daughter, Hu Meizi.

Hu Lie is someone who rarely interacts with others, making it hard to enter his circle. Yet now, Hu Lie's attitude towards Zhang Xiaoshan was overly reverent, almost like a student meeting his head teacher, indicating that this suddenly appearing young man was not ordinary.

He must have some outstanding qualities to be regarded so highly by Hu Lie.

Zhang Xiaoshan discerned Feng Tiangang's thoughts and immediately smirked.

"Hahaha, are you scared?"

"Scared?"

Being mocked by Zhang Xiaoshan in front of so many people, Feng Tiangang was furious.

"What are you? Would I be scared of you?"

"Oh..."

Suddenly, Feng Tiangang sneered, casting a deep look at Zhang Xiaoshan, then at Hu Lie, before speaking with a cold smile.

"Hu Lie, I thought you were an honest person, but didn't expect you'd play tricks like the empty fort strategy."

"You think bringing a young stranger whom nobody knows, and acting as if he is someone important or some martial arts master, will scare us away?"

"Too bad your plan is seen through by me. I'm telling you, today you must die; stop pretending to be mysterious."

"Oh, right, right..."

The rebels behind Feng Tiangang suddenly echoed, each one seemingly "awakened."

"I was wondering, how could the indomitable Hu Lie be so respectful to a brat, turns out it's all an act to scare us."

"Master Feng is indeed insightful, seeing through everything."

"Hu Lie, things have come to this point, stop scheming and end yourself."

"Alas, our Hu family is finished, the tide has turned."

Even the Hu family's elders behind Hu Lie were lamenting, sighing, as they too believed the situation was exactly as Feng Tiangang guessed; Zhang Xiaoshan was just an actor hired by Hu Lie.

Always proud and aloof, for Hu Lie to resort to such a method showed that it was indeed the end, impossible to turn around.

"Master Feng, I am willing to kill this brat to make up for my mistake."

A middle-aged man behind Feng Tiangang stepped out.

Gang Qi Realm cultivation.

A core steward of Flying Fox Sect, status equal to Hu Meng.

Originally supporting the Hu family, but switched to Feng Tiangang's camp at the critical moment.

Now, he wanted to seize an opportunity to secure a foothold with Feng Tiangang, hoping to gain more benefits once Feng Tiangang controlled the power thoroughly.

"Okay."

Feng Tiangang nodded.

"Deacon Qian, you are smart, so I give you a chance, kill him."

"Yes."

Deacon Qian immediately clenched his fists and walked towards Zhang Xiaoshan with a vicious look.

"Kid, do you even know where you are, daring to come here to act arrogant? Don't blame me for being ruthless."

While speaking.

"Crunch."

The bluestone slab beneath his feet suddenly shattered, as he dashed like a cheetah towards Zhang Xiaoshan, his right hand resembling a beast's claw aimed at Zhang Xiaoshan's throat.

"Throat-shattering Claw."
