Chapter 144 Secret Agreement

Lu Feng lowered his head even faster than Meng Li expected, which can be said to be in line with Lu Chenyao's style.

If he stops now, he should be able to get a good contract from Lu Feng.

But the problem is, the other party got one thing wrong.

At this moment, the initiative was in Meng Li's hands, not his.

He and Lu Chenyao were working quite well together.

If the other party is sincere, he doesn't mind giving up some benefits; it's a win-win situation for everyone.

But now that the other party has shown this attitude, he naturally has no intention of giving them any more face.

Click!

A protective shield emerged from Lu Feng's body and enveloped him within it.

As the head of a branch, he naturally possessed something to protect his life.

"Young man... is too hot-blooded."

Lu Feng sighed softly.

It was a bit reckless, but the opponent was strong enough to use it, though the cost of the shield would have to be deducted from their salary.

The.

As for Meng Li breaking this protective barrier...

Impossible, impossible at all.

It was strong enough to withstand a B-level attack or a C+ level attack for more than three minutes. By the time Meng Li broke the shield, the superhumans in his family had already returned. So even if Meng Li continued to launch a frenzied attack, he was not worried at all.

But before his thoughts could even take hold...

Now, like fragile ice crystals, the protective shield shattered suddenly.

Lu Feng's expression was somewhat stiff.

It wasn't because the shield had broken, but because Meng Li's fists didn't stop at all, as if the shield that had just lit up on his body was an illusion.

In that instant, a sense of apprehension unconsciously rose in his heart.

"impossible!"

Even a B-level enemy should be momentarily blocked.

However, he was not given a chance to think.

Although Meng Li's punches were slow, the distance between the two was significant.

In just a second, crackling sounds began to pop and pop all over Lu Feng's body.

One by one, extraordinary items turned into dust and countless ashes that fell to the ground.

Before anyone knew it, Meng Li's fist was already in front of Lu Feng's forehead.

The distance between the two sides is so short that it is difficult to calculate.

Lu Feng knew that if Meng Li threw a punch, his head would explode like a watermelon.

He didn't doubt whether the other person was bluffing him.

He was all too familiar with Meng Li's gaze.

He had only ever seen that kind of disregard for human life in the eyes of special forces squads that were tasked with conquering foreign lands and massacring cities.

However, he is, after all, someone who has seen many storms.

Upon realizing he was still alive, Lu Feng immediately knew that he had a glimmer of hope.

He had never felt his mind could work so fast.

"If you need anything, please feel free to ask. I, Lu Feng, can represent the sixth branch of the Lu family and grant you any request."

This is the biggest promise he can make.

When Meng Li lowered her hand, Lu Feng knew he had made the right bet.

Cold sweat had soaked his back. Faced with death, even someone of high rank and power would instinctively feel fear at the genetic level.

"Chen Yao, take Wang Lie down to rest."

"Yes."

He wanted to argue, but seeing his father's expression, Lu Chenyao wisely helped the bodyguard leave.

Although he was the eldest son, families like the Lu family, which have a long history, place great importance on the father's authority over the son. Normally, this would be fine, but in times like this, he naturally dared not disobey his father's orders.

After the room door closed, no one knew what agreement Lu Feng and Meng Li had reached.

All I know is the next day.

"Choose any one?"

Lu Chenyao stared at Meng Li in disbelief.

Meng Li nodded in agreement.

"It's not that I'm casual, it's just that I can take anything I need."

"What's the difference between that and being able to take it all?"

You should know that even if he is the so-called eldest son of a branch family, he can only enter the family treasury to choose one item at a time.

Seeing Lu Chenyao's excited tone, Meng Li didn't explain anything.

What was originally a one-time opportunity to choose a treasure has become an arbitrary choice, which does seem quite outrageous.

Not to mention, the treasure trove for selecting items is shared by the entire Lu family, not just by a branch.

Lu Feng showed Meng Li the items from the branch last night. The most numerous were life-saving items, followed by offensive items, but Meng Li had no interest in either of them.

Even the strongest single-use item is enough to unleash a B-grade attack.

It has to be said, that's really too high... Even Meng Li would have a hard time doing it, since it's indeed strenuous to hit with your hands closed.

But Meng Li didn't have much expectation for this treasure trove to choose from.

After all, the good stuff in the Lu Feng branch was kept by themselves, and only the less valuable stuff was handed over to the family according to their share. He could imagine what kind of things were in the family's treasure trove.

And that's what happened on their journey.

"Hey, isn't this Lu Chenyao? I heard you suffered quite a few losses on your last mission."

As the two were walking towards the center of the courtyard, a somewhat frivolous voice came from over.

This was a young man with a pale complexion, who looked somewhat weak.

"roll."

Lu Chenyao ignored him.

"Ha, you're really putting on airs now. I hope you can be just as arrogant at the family meeting."

He spat dismissively, not bothering to argue, as if the other party had simply come over to mock Lu Chenyao.

The man simply walked past and left.

Throughout the entire process, the other party did not glance at Meng Li even once.

"Is he from the fourth branch?"

"right."

Lu Chenyao nodded.

Although the Lu family is deeply corrupt internally, they are all smiling tigers in their daily lives. Only those from the fourth branch who have completely torn off the mask would speak so bluntly and mock them.

The Lu family has nine branches in total. The relationship between Lu Chenyao's sixth branch and the fourth branch is the worst. They are sworn enemies. Lu Chenyao's grandfather was killed by the other party's scheme. Although it was only indirectly caused, the sixth branch still held a grudge against the other party.

Meng Li nodded, not paying any attention. It was perfectly normal for people with poor relationships to exist within a family.

However, he still glanced at the departing man a few more times; after all, one should consider the owner before beating a dog.

Now that the sixth branch is his, it would be best for the fourth branch, which is an eyesore, to disappear.

move on.

Before long, the two arrived at a quaint wooden building that looked unremarkable.

But when Meng Li went inside, she discovered that it wasn't like that at all.

Infrared scanning, iris verification, and armed soldiers guarding the perimeter.

From the outside, it looks like an ordinary building, but once inside, you'll find that it's heavily guarded, just like a military base.

After walking only a few steps, Meng Li discovered several places that seemed to be hiding weapons.

However, with Lu Chenyao leading the way and Lu Feng seemingly having made prior arrangements, the two proceeded without hindrance.
