Zhang Lingyun

Lanjiang City's Beast Arena did not belong to any one faction, but to a powerful and mysterious force. Even the former lord of Lanjiang City had not dared offend it.

We're here!

When Qin Shaofeng spotted the enormous circular building in the distance, his eyes lit up slightly. But just then, a voice with a strange, mocking lilt suddenly rang out.

"Oh? Isn't this Lanjiang City's number one genius, young master Qin?"

The voice had come abruptly, yet it was so familiar.

Zhang Lingyun!

His younger brother?

Without even turning around, Qin Shaofeng had already recognized who it was.

A chill passed through his heart, and a glint of cold light flashed through his eyes. In the end, however, Qin Shaofeng did not stop. He walked straight into the Beast Arena.

Ignoring me?

That bastard!

Qin Shaofeng's attitude had clearly enraged Zhang Lingyun completely. Yet when he saw the two guards at Qin Shaofeng's side, he could not help halting, not daring to step forward.

He naturally recognized those two guards. They were men from the Qin Family's old master's side. Though they were not Xiantian Martial Masters, they were still tenth-level Houtian Realm martial artists at the peak of their cultivation.

It seems that after that incident, that old Qin bastard has started being more careful!

"Those Wu Brothers, A'da and A'er, were utterly useless. They actually failed to kill that brat!"

After muttering a few words under his breath, Zhang Lingyun gave a cold smile, his heart filling with disdain.

Hmph, so what if he didn't die? Qin Shaofeng is nothing more than a cripple now. My Zhang Family has no need to pay attention to a piece of trash.

Father even said that the Wu Brothers have vanished without a trace, while several of my Zhang Family's secret businesses have suffered inexplicable attacks and sustained considerable losses. It seems the scheme to murder that trash was exposed. He told me not to provoke Qin Shaofeng lately, and even forbade Eldest Brother from leaving the house.

What a joke! As long as Eldest Brother wins the battle tournament, Lanjiang City will belong to my Zhang Family. What is a mere Qin Family worth? Do I need to fear Qin Shaofeng, that piece of trash?

Though Zhang Lingyun thought this way, it was his father's order, not something he could defy. In the end, he could only endure it.

Still, when he recalled Qin Shaofeng's attitude toward him just now, a knot remained in his heart.

After thinking it over, Zhang Lingyun's eyes brightened slightly. A cold smile appeared on his face as he followed Qin Shaofeng into the Beast Arena.

"Oh, what a fine day this is! Even a rare guest like young master Qin has come to my Beast Arena!"

The moment Qin Shaofeng stepped through the Beast Arena's gates, a middle-aged man in his thirties came forward to greet him.

This middle-aged man was Steward Fang of the Beast Arena. Steward Fang looked utterly ordinary, with nothing remarkable about him, but Qin Shaofeng knew that he was an expert at the Houtian Peak.

Qin Shaofeng naturally would not act rashly before someone like that.

With a faint smile, Qin Shaofeng said, "I've been a little bored lately, so I came over to take a stroll around your place, Steward Fang."

"A stroll? I'd say young master Qin has suddenly developed a new hobby lately, which is why he came to the Beast Arena, no?"

A slightly sarcastic voice rang out as Zhang Lingyun entered the Beast Arena as well.

"Steward Fang, you may not know this, but our young master Qin has recently developed a taste for slaughtering Low-level Demonic Beasts! When faced with livestock that have barely reached the first or second level, young master Qin's displays of divine might are truly marvelous!"

Before Qin Shaofeng could respond, Zhang Lingyun, who had walked over, smugly mocked him again.

Zhang Lingyun's words made Qin Shaofeng frown.

He had only killed those low-level livestock Demonic Beasts this morning, less than two hours ago. Aside from Qin Dabao, hardly anyone should have known about it.

Yet Zhang Lingyun's words clearly showed that he already knew.

It seemed the Zhang Family had planted quite a few spies in Qin Mansion.

Qin Shaofeng smiled faintly to himself, a trace of cold light flashing through his eyes.

Steward Fang knew quite a bit about the relationship between the Qin Family and the Zhang Family in Lanjiang City. Thus, he showed no reaction to Zhang Lingyun's words, merely greeting him as Second Young Master Zhang.
