The Immortal Who Returned from the Netherworld Road – Chapter 52

Ch 52: Someone from the Feng Family is here

Heavy snow arrived as scheduled, and the entire Longshan County was covered in a thick layer of white snow, turning it into a silver-clad world.

Inside the rented house, Xi Yang was busily cooking a table full of sumptuous dishes. Since arriving here, five days had passed. Although there was still a lot of money in his bank card, it was clear that this money was far from enough to properly settle Duo’er. However, in this Longshan County, there was no way to make money quickly! Therefore, he had to save money.

He had previously tried to let Duo’er cook, but the results were unpalatable. In the end, Xi Yang couldn’t stand it and decided to cook himself.

At this time, the aroma of food wafted from the room, and Duo’er came out after smelling it. She sat down at the dining table and quickly picked up her chopsticks to enjoy the food. After spending these days together, Duo’er’s courage gradually increased, and she would occasionally joke with Xi Yang.

“Master, your cooking skills are amazing! Why don’t we just open a restaurant! It will definitely be a hit!” Duo’er suggested excitedly while eating with relish.

Xi Yang came out of the kitchen and said with a wry smile, “You just want to eat free meals! Besides, this master is not interested in opening a restaurant!”

He sat down at the dining table, and Duo’er obediently served Xi Yang rice. “Master, we’re just sitting here eating and doing nothing every day. Can the money in your pocket support us?”

Xi Yang glanced at her and said lightly, “Don’t worry about it. This master has a way!”

If it really doesn’t work, I’ll secretly return to Yuanshi County and find someone to secretly buy a Top-Grade Crystal Stone. That will be a huge sum of money again! He thought to himself.

“Ding-ling-ling!” At this moment, the doorbell rang outside.

Duo’er nimbly got up and quickly opened the door. She saw a hunched old man looking at her with a smile.

Duo’er looked at him hesitantly, “Are you?”

Feng Yueling, wearing a light blue dress, walked up from behind the old man, “Little sister, it’s me!”

Duo’er exclaimed in surprise, “So it’s Sister Feng Yueling! What’s wrong? Do you have something?”

The old man coughed, “Is your brother here? This old man has something to discuss with him!”

Duo’er looked back at Xi Yang, who was eating.

Xi Yang nodded. Receiving Xi Yang’s response, she quickly invited them in. Originally, she thought there were only the old man and Feng Yueling, but she didn’t expect that they were followed by six bodyguards and a young man in thick cashmere clothes.

The old man came to Xi Yang and bowed with his fist in his palm, “This old man is Feng Changsheng, thank you, benefactor, for saving my life!” Saying that, he pointed to the young man behind him and said, “This is my grandson Feng Qingyi, and you’ve also met that one. She’s my granddaughter Feng Qingyue!”

Xi Yang ate on his own without saying a word!

Feng Yueling, who was on the side, said dissatisfied, “Hey, is this your way of treating guests? My grandpa is of such status, and you don’t even pay attention when he talks to you!”

Xi Yang glanced at her, “I’m not called ‘hey’, my name is Yang Xi. Besides, I’m eating. Can’t whatever it is wait until I finish eating?”

Feng Qingyi’s expression turned unfriendly when he heard this, “Boy, our Feng Family’s visit is giving you face! Don’t go too far!”

“Shut up!” Feng Changsheng scolded, “We were already impolite to come while people are eating. If you two talk nonsense again, get out!”

The two closed their mouths sullenly upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Duo’er quickly pulled over three stools, “Old Grandpa, I’m sorry! My brother is just like this. Please don’t take offense.” After saying that, she ran back to the table and continued eating.

Xi Yang finished his meal unhurriedly and had Duo’er clean up the dining table.

He got up and bowed to Feng Changsheng with his fist in his palm, “Sorry to keep you waiting! I wonder what you’re here for?”

Feng Changsheng cupped his hands, “We are here to thank you for saving my life.” Saying that, he glanced at Feng Yueling, who was sulking on the side.

Feng Yueling reluctantly handed a check to Xi Yang.

“This is one million Dragon Country Currency from the Dragon Country Bank, to thank young man Yang Xi for saving my life!” Feng Changsheng said.

Xi Yang put the check into the Storage Bag in his arms. He said lightly, “You don’t need to make such a big fuss just for this, right!”

Feng Changsheng smiled, “Of course.” Saying that, he waved his hand, signaling the bodyguards behind him to leave.

The leading bodyguard said softly, “Master, it’s not safe! I…”

“Alright, go out!” Feng Qingyi said lightly.

After the six bodyguards left, Feng Changsheng continued, “You are a Martial Artist, right?”

“What makes you say that?”

“I know my own body. Wang Dayou’s Life-Saving Revival Pill can’t save me. Although I don’t have much experience, I can still see this clearly!” Feng Changsheng said.

“There’s no need to say more about what happened before. Tell me the purpose of your visit!”

“Alright! Young man Yang Xi is straightforward! Then I won’t beat around the bush. I want to hire you as Yueling’s bodyguard!” Feng Changsheng said.

Feng Yueling didn’t react for a moment when she heard this, and then shouted, “Grandpa, what are you doing? It’s enough for us to repay the favor. What do we need a bodyguard for! I’m still in school!”

Feng Changsheng shook his head, “Your parents were killed because of my carelessness. Your brother is now in charge of the Feng Family’s business, and with Old Wang protecting him, there won’t be any accidents. I’m only worried about you!”

“If you’re worried, you can call someone else! Why him?” Feng Yueling said.

Watching the two argue endlessly, Xi Yang interrupted, “I’m not interested in being a bodyguard for anyone. You’ve come to the wrong person! Please leave!”

Feng Changsheng shook his head upon hearing this, “We investigated your background. Your household registration is in Blackwater Village, and you live in Mabu Village. I don’t know what you came to the county town for, but I can roughly guess.”

He turned his head and glanced at the kitchen, then continued, “It should be for the guy inside to go to school, right? With the Feng Family’s connections and influence, it can be easily solved.”

Xi Yang frowned and looked at him.

“Also, having a household registration in Blackwater Village will arouse suspicion in Dragon Country. That place has always been where Dragon Country’s serious criminals go to escape national pursuit! I don’t know who you are, but your strength is so low-key, which means you still have enemies behind you. As long as you agree, I will help you settle everything within Longshan County!” Feng Changsheng said confidently.

Xi Yang smiled, “It seems you’ve made enough preparations. But aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you to prevent the secret from being leaked!”

Feng Qingyi and Feng Yueling’s expressions changed slightly when they heard this, and they protected Feng Changsheng in the middle.

Feng Changsheng laughed loudly, “My life was saved by you. If you want to take it, then take it!”

“Okay, Old Master, you win! But I’ll only be her bodyguard for one year, after which I’ll leave Longshan County. At the same time, Duo’er needs your care!” Xi Yang said calmly.

“Okay, it’s a deal. We’ll pay you ten million for this year’s salary.”

Xi Yang nodded.

“We’ll arrange everything else! Three days later, go to Longshan No. 1 Middle School! We’ve arranged an identity for you!” Feng Changsheng said with a smile.

“Okay!” Xi Yang replied.

Feng Yueling said unhappily upon hearing this, “Grandpa, can’t you discuss it?”

Feng Changsheng shook his head, “There’s no room for discussion on this matter!” Saying that, he turned and left.

He seemed to have thought of something as he walked to the door. He turned his head and said to Xi Yang, “We don’t have enough houses to live in. I’ll return the house in the next two days, and I’ll send someone to pick you up!”

“Okay!” Xi Yang replied.

After they left, Duo’er came out of the kitchen and said with tears in her eyes, “Master, why did you agree to them? Is it because of me?”

Xi Yang touched her head, smiled, “The Feng Family’s power here is extremely strong. If we want to settle down here, we must have their help! Don’t worry about this. This master knows what he’s doing!”
