Chapter 909: Blizzard City (3)

Long Fei’s father was the real founder of Blizzard City. Additionally, he was also the former leader of the Blizzard Mercenary Group. After his father died, Long Fei took over Blizzard City and the Blizzard Mercenary Group. Even though he did not have his father’s dazzling achievements, under Long Fei’s management, Blizzard City and the Blizzard Mercenary Group were managed in an orderly manner. Furthermore, more than twenty years ago, Long Fei had relied on the Blizzard City’s foundation to build another city.

Shen Yanxiao had learned about Long Fei from Du Lang.

They were both mercenaries, but Du Lang had a high evaluation of Long Fei.

Shen Yanxiao did not have a bad impression of Long Fei. At least, he had taught his daughter well.

“City Lord, I am guilty for failing to complete my mission!” Fang Qiu took the initiative to apologize as he looked ashamed.

Long Fei’s pale face had a trace of gentleness as he said, “Forget it. The Joy-Sucking Gra.s.s is not easy to find. It has been hard on you.” He did not blame Fang Qiu and the others for their failure.

Fang Qiu felt even more guilty, and so he told Long Fei everything that had happened at the northern border.

Long Fei was surprised when he heard the whole story.

“Those demons are truly crafty to manage to escape our detection.” They had to pay more attention to this. Even though they had managed to escape, no one knew what would happen if it were to happen again.

“It was all thanks to little brother Shen Jue that we have managed to escape this calamity.” Fang Qiu did not fight for credit as he directly brought Shen Yanxiao’s achievements to light.

Long Fei immediately looked at Shen Yanxiao.

With Long Fei’s keen eyesight, he deduced that the young man must be quite powerful. Furthermore, Fang Qiu had mentioned that the young man could defeat an advanced-ranked demon without suffering any injuries. With that, Long Fei could not help but sigh.

Advanced-ranked demons were savages. No one below the second cla.s.s promotion could stop them. However, not only did the young man fight two advanced-ranked demons by himself, but he also had to take on the task of escorting Long Xueyao and the rest of the team back to Blizzard City. Long Fei was already grateful that the young man had protected his only daughter.

“Brother Shen Jue, thank you so much for saving Yaoyao. Words cannot express my grat.i.tude. If you need my help in the future, I will do my best to help!” Long Fei did not care about his ident.i.ty as he cupped his fists and bowed to Shen Yanxiao.

Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows. How honorable was Long Fei’s status in the G.o.d Wind Alliance? How could he bow to her without any hesitation? He was truly a hero of his generation.

Her heart couldn’t help but regard Long Fei even more highly.

“You’re too kind, City Lord Long. It was merely a simple matter.” Shen Yanxiao did not reject his offer. It did not matter if her original intention was to recruit demons or to save Long Xueyao. Long Fei had already acknowledged her as his benefactor, so why should she reject his offer?

Only a fool would not want something good.

After all, she did not have a n.o.ble character.

“Please have a seat!” Long Fei said with a smile.

Shen Yanxiao took her seat, and Long Fei immediately ordered someone to serve her tea.

“Truly, heroes come from the young. Shen Jue is so young, but he already has such a high level of cultivation. It really makes us blush with shame,” the middle-aged man who had been sitting at the side suddenly said.

Shen Yanxiao smiled. She had already guessed his ident.i.ty.

The middle-aged man had a handsome appearance with a righteous aura. However, the similarity between his brows and Gu Feng made Shen Yanxiao dislike him. He must be Gu Feng’s father, the leader of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, Gu Lan.
