C227: We Should Care Our Own Business

Long Xuanyuan had thought of roping Tang Zheng in, but when he heard that Tang Zheng was a cultivator, he tossed that thought out the window. Even his anger towards Tang Zheng had gradually calmed down.

Although Long Xuanyuan had already made him his enemy because of what Tang Zheng had done to Long Tengyu, Long Xuanyuan had never thought that he would be a cultivator.

Long Xuanyuan was stunned for a long time before he regained his senses. He knew the impressiveness of cultivators, and he also understood the irreconcilable relationship between water and fire between Martial Sect and cultivators.

He didn't even dare to offend the Martial Sect and was even more afraid of cultivators. This was the attitude of ordinary people towards cultivators — to stay far away from them.

They did not have as deep of a foundation as the Martial Sect, and cultivators were too mysterious. It was said that they had the ability to overturn the world and overturn the seas and rivers.

Immediately, Long Xuanyuan understood why Tang Zheng could display such extraordinary feats at such a young age.

Tang Zheng stared at Long Xuanyuan with all his might, if the other party were to make a move, then he would definitely not just sit there and wait for death, even if he had to risk his life, he would definitely protect the Fang Shishi, at most, he would escape into the Ten Thousand Huge Mountains, and it would not be an easy task for Long Xuanyuan to deal with him.

Long Xuanyuan's expression kept on changing, but Long Tengyu was already unable to endure it, and bellowed: "Father, did you hear what I said? "They are cultivators, hurry up and arrest them."

"Shut up!"

Long Xuanyuan bellowed, he immediately went silent and hatefully stared at Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng was not moved, he only cared about Long Xuanyuan's attitude.

"Tang Zheng, you have saved Nannan and Hong Yan before, this is a great favor to the Long family, the Long family must repay this kindness." Long Xuanyuan finally opened his mouth.

Tang Zheng coldly snorted in disdain, "Is this how you repay favors? You actually dared to do something bad to my girlfriend. "

Long Xuanyuan glared fiercely at Long Tengyu, disappointed. He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, saying: "This is indeed my son's fault, but if you wanted to kill him, that is an indisputable fact. You should know that anyone who wants to kill a member of the Long Family cannot be forgiven."

Tang Zheng scoffed, "I will never forgive anyone who wants to hurt my family."

Long Xuanyuan frowned his eyebrows, and said: "But because you have done a great service to the Long family, I can let go of all the harm you have done to my son."

After Long Tengyu heard this, he did not give up and shouted loudly, "Dad, how can we not fuss about it? He almost killed me. "

Long Xuanyuan turned a deaf ear and continued: "But I didn't think that you were a cultivator, cultivators and Martial Sect s are mortal enemies, I think you should be clear about this point, I do not want to get into contact with Martial Sect s, and even more so, do not want to get entangled with cultivators, so from today on, everything that we did before will be written off, and we just pretend like nothing happened. We should care our own business."

Long Xuanyuan was unwilling to bear the infamy of killing his benefactor, and even more so, he did not want to offend the Martial Sect or the cultivators.

Eh, he actually made this decision.

Tang Zheng was surprised, he had already prepared to fight to the death. However, this decision was most advantageous to him.

"Is that true?"

Long Xuanyuan nodded: "Of course."

"Could it be that once I leave, you'll sell me off?" Tang Zheng asked vigilantly, his gaze sweeping across Long Tengyu's body a few times.

Long Xuanyuan was very clear of Tang Zheng's intentions, and spoke to Long Tengyu solemnly: "Teng Yu, from today onwards, you will keep everything that has happened today to yourself, especially their identity as cultivators. If you dare to bring it up to outsiders, don't blame me for being impolite."

Long Tengyu's heart trembled, he did not understand why his father was so cautious against Tang Zheng, if he were to kill the two of them, or hand them over to the Martial Sect, wouldn't that be easy?

However, looking at his father's strict expression, he understood what his father's expression meant. It was that his father would not give him the chance to oppose the decision.

Long Tengyu gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he had no choice but to nod his head and agree.

Tang Zheng heaved a sigh of relief, although he did not believe that Long Tengyu would always keep his mouth shut, at least for the time being, he would not leak this information out, and that was enough.

Tang Zheng was confident that he could quickly raise his cultivation level, especially after discovering the Witch clan. The Ten Thousand Huge Mountains was filled with Spiritual Qi and could definitely increase his cultivation level by leaps and bounds.

"But I have one request, from today onwards you will not be able to get in contact with my beauty and Nannan. I do not wish for anyone from the Long family to be related to you." Long Xuanyuan added.

Tang Zheng hesitated for a moment, then said: "I can promise that I won't take the initiative to contact them." His identity as a cultivator was indeed very dangerous, and if he did not interact with this mother and daughter pair, it would indeed be beneficial to them.

As for the cultivation method he promised Mu Hongyan to pass on to Nannan, there was no need to be hasty about it, she was still young anyway.

"Then you can go." Long Xuanyuan got out of the way.

"I'll go back to the villa near the lake to retrieve my luggage, then I'll leave." Tang Zheng held Fang Shishi's hand and walked out of the private room. The Heavenly Horse was waiting in the main hall.

Fang Shishi had just recovered from his panic, and was surprised to see the white horse: "This is …"

"Our horse." Tang Zheng gently carried Fang Shishi on his back, jumped on his horse, held Fang Shishi in his arms and left the scene.

"Dad, why should we let them go?" Long Tengyu held his stomach, the pain caused all the muscles on his face to contort, as he asked unwillingly.

Long Xuanyuan turned around and stared at him. Long Tengyu was shocked, he took a step back and asked: "Dad, why do you look at me like that?"

"Pah!"

A resounding slap landed on Long Tengyu's face. Long Xuanyuan flew into a rage: "You disappointing thing, do you know you almost got yourself into big trouble?"

Long Tengyu gasped from the pain, and said with a crying face: "Father, I didn't do anything wrong, I even saw through their identity as cultivators."

Long Xuanyuan said resentfully, "They are cultivators, do you know who are behind them? You went and provoked them, because you want the Long family to be in a situation of eternal damnation? "

Long Tengyu was a little stunned, then said: "Aren't cultivators the enemy of warriors? Moreover, the people of the Martial Sect have been chasing after and killing cultivators. "

"Hmph, enemy, how old is that? Only the Martial Sect will keep chasing and killing cultivators, even the people of the Li Sect and the Azure Dragon Palace turn a blind eye towards cultivators, is there a need for our Long family to provoke them? "

Long Tengyu was speechless, so this matter was not as simple as he had imagined.

If Tang Zheng heard this, he would be overjoyed. So it turned out that not everyone in this world viewed cultivators as thorn in their side, only the people of Martial Sect would chase after and kill them, which meant that his enemies were not as numerous as he imagined.

"In short, treat today's matter as if it didn't happen and don't provoke Tang Zheng in the future. Wang Fuchuan sold out the benefits of the Long family, then the identity of the mastermind is still unclear. Your recent focus will be to investigate this matter thoroughly and uncover the mastermind."

Long Tengyu was extremely unwilling, but he had no choice but to accept this result.

When Tang Zheng returned to the Lakeside Villa, Mu Hongyan and Nannan were already waiting at the door. Mu Hongyan's expression was very complicated, she had already received strict orders from Long Xuanyuan not to interact with Tang Zheng in the future and did not explain the reason.

Mu Hongyan was confused, with Tang Zheng's great help, if he were to recruit her, it would definitely benefit the Long family in the future.

Since Long Xuanyuan did not explain the reason, she had no choice but to ask Tang Zheng. However, when she heard about Long Tengyu's actions towards the Fang Shishi, she was shocked and angry at the same time.

"Elder Brother Miracle Doctor, you're back." Nannan threw herself into Tang Zheng's embrace, hugged both of his legs, and shouted with red eyes.

Seeing her pitiful look, Tang Zheng immediately carried her. He would not be able to see her for a short period of time.

"Elder Brother Miracle Doctor, that day when you and mother fell off the cliff, you really scared Nannan to death. Nannan thought that you two would never come back, wuwu …" As she spoke, she wiped away her tears.

Tang Zheng hurriedly consoled her, "Nannan will not cry. Your mother and I are both reluctant to part with you, so how could we not come back?"

Nannan's tears turned into smiles: "En, Nannan is so obedient. She is a good child, you guys definitely will not reject Nannan."

Suddenly, she rolled her eyes. Her gaze was attracted by the Heavenly Horse as she excitedly shouted, "Wah! Horses! What beautiful horses!"

With a bell-like laughter, he threw himself at the Pegasus.

Tang Zheng immediately stopped her, this beast was too arrogant, she shouldn't be kicked flying.

"I want to ride a horse, I want to ride a horse …" Nannan kept waving her hands as she eagerly said.

Tang Zheng was helpless, he could only carry him onto the horse, while Nannan hugged the horse's back, laughing out loud.

Looking at her daughter's happy expression, Mu Hongyan felt bitter in his heart. He will not be able to see Tang Zheng again, Nannan will definitely be very sad.

"Tang Zheng, what happened? Why would Father make such a decision?" Mu Hongyan could not help but ask.

Tang Zheng then recounted what happened earlier, causing Mu Hongyan to become extremely angry: "Long Tengyu, I never thought that he would be such a beast with a human's face." As he said that, he hurriedly grabbed onto Fang Shishi's hand, "Shishi, luckily you're fine, otherwise I would feel guilty for the rest of my life."

The Fang Shishi regained her calm, "Aren't I fine now? Besides, it's not your fault. "

"However, they already know about our identity as cultivators, so they made this decision. At the very least, it will be beneficial to both sides for the time being." Tang Zheng said.

Mu Hongyan resentfully said: "All of this was because of me, if I did not invite you to the South Yunnan, all of this would not have happened."

Tang Zheng shook his head: "I had originally wanted to see all of you, and furthermore, I am here for your husband's treasure."

The Fang Shishi already knew that Mu Hongyan knew of their identities, and that his husband was also a cultivator. Hearing them mention treasures, he said: "Tang Zheng, we cannot come here anymore, last time you went looking for him alone, this time we will look for him last time, if we really cannot find him, then it means that it is not your fate."

Tang Zheng's heart moved, there was one more person with a bit of a chance, furthermore she was right, if he couldn't find it this time, then it would be very difficult to come to the Long family, this treasure would truly be forever covered in dust.
