Chapter 1747: Chapter 1747: Commanding Respect

Liang Hongying widened her apricot eyes, looking as if she was about to fall into the arms of the person opposite, feeling a mix of embarrassment and annoyance.

This bastard, it was definitely intentional.

But her tofu was not so easy to take.

One must know that her title as the "Matchmaker" was not complete. Anyone familiar with her knew her full nickname was the "Scorpion’s Matchmaker."

Although the Red Tassel Spear was her best weapon, in reality, Liang Hongying’s strongest weapon was a Scorpion Tail Stinger.

Liang Hongying quickly contained her anger, showing a hint of coyness on her peach blossom face, which had always been beautiful, bringing a blush to her cheeks.

Then, she deftly lunged into Li Feng’s embrace. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Ha, men.

Just wait, I’ll show you the power of my Scorpion’s Matchmaker Stinger.

All around, people gritted their teeth watching this scene. This Li Feng was really outrageous; not only did he step on the four great generals, but now he was about to embrace their camp’s beauty, utterly shameless.

But just at this critical moment.

Seeing Liang Hongying about to fall into Li Feng’s arms, her sleeve secretly revealed the sharpness of the Scorpion Tail Stinger.

Li Feng used a Shadow Shifting technique, suddenly moving two steps aside. The Li Feng who was originally in front of Liang Hongying was instantly just a shadow.

Liang Hongying, falling forward, suddenly found nothing ahead. When she thought she was being pulled into Li Feng’s embrace, she still had the chance to regain control, but to fall into his arms, she abandoned adjusting her posture, letting Li Feng’s force lead her out.

At this moment, where Li Feng had stood, only a shadow remained. With nothing to stop her in front, Liang Hongying, having lost her balance, naturally fell to the ground.

Now, she couldn’t save herself in time; everything was beyond her expectation.

Ah.

Looking at the ground, Liang Hongying fell directly, prompting a stronger surge of embarrassment and annoyance. What did he mean?

Was she not pretty enough, her figure not graceful enough, that he actually dodged?

"What do you mean?"

Li Feng glanced at Liang Hongying, who was sitting on the ground with a face full of resentment, like a woman who had lost her charm.

"Your acting was pretty good; I almost got fooled by you, but unfortunately, their eyes betrayed you."

"Hm?"

Liang Hongying looked puzzled.

As the last victor standing, Li Feng had no reservations in speaking, looking at the five great generals lying on the ground.

"When you were about to fall into my arms, their eyes didn’t show any anger or irritation, but instead had a schadenfreude smirk."

"Though you five generals are not on good terms and have fought for leadership, before this, you were inseparable. Your battle coordination just now proved this point."

"This is definitely not something a temporary team can achieve; therefore, you must be very familiar with each other. Even though you compete with each other, seemingly at odds, your relationship runs deep."

"As an outsider, if I were to embrace this camp’s beauty, what would their reaction be? It certainly wouldn’t be schadenfreude but anger, a fury at losing face, especially since five of you lost to me."

"People with some dignity and pride wouldn’t show that expression, but they did, which leaves only one possibility."

"You still have a trump card hidden. Their schadenfreude wasn’t for you but for me, because my arrogance led to a fatal flaw, and they were certain you could turn the tables in an instant, leaving me utterly defeated."

"So, although I don’t know why they were so certain, your blush made me highly alert."

"Why, am I not beautiful enough?"

Liang Hongying pursed her lips, gazing askew at Li Feng, biting her lips. Losing wasn’t shameful, but being ignored by a man was something she couldn’t accept.

Li Feng laughed: "You’re beautiful, more than worthy of being described as ’sinking fish and falling geese,’ not to mention your valiant aura that makes people take notice."

"Such a heroine as you, showing a hint of coyness, truthfully, is stunning and heart-racing, but at the same time, unusual behavior has a reason."

"A moment ago, you looked as if you wanted to step me underfoot; the next, you’re ready to throw yourself into my arms. This contrast, I can’t believe."

"All things considered, it simply means you’re very dangerous."

"But since you’re a woman, I didn’t want to beat a dog in the water; it would be too unkind and ungentlemanly, so I could only evade to see what move you’d make."

Saying this, Li Feng squinted and looked down at Liang Hongying. One must admit, dressed in her leather armor, Liang Hongying was indeed the kind of woman men yearned to conquer.

Her long practice in Martial Arts made her body not weak, but flexible and beautiful, with an almost perfect golden ratio and not an ounce to spare.

The tight leather armor outlined a perfect line, drawing the eye even outside, enough to make countless men gulp, especially in a sect like Nine Layers Mountain, dominated by male disciples.

After ten years in the military, a sow looks like Diao Chan.

This is truly a real portrayal.

Liang Hongying, listening to Li Feng unraveling his suspicions, glanced sideways at Yue Shan and the others, as if to say it was all their fault.

Yue Shan and the others cried injustice: we just glanced, but who knew he could perceive it.

Besides, that happened in the blink of an eye.

Li Feng was pretty close with his deductions; Yue Shan and the others were close before, otherwise, they couldn’t coordinate so seamlessly.

Although Liang Hongying always appeared gentle, any woman surviving in Nine Layers Mountain wasn’t delicate, let alone earning the position of a general.

Perhaps beauty was a key, but mere beauty couldn’t attract followers; the Nine Layers Mountain revered strength.

If you’re not strong, no matter how pretty you are, you can’t become a general. You wouldn’t be bullied, but you couldn’t survive in the sect either.

"Do you still want to continue?"

Looking at Liang Hongying, even though she was unwilling, she knew she couldn’t; her best trump was a surprise attack when off-guard.

But the opponent didn’t take the bait.

As for a direct fight, even combined they weren’t opponents, so alone, would she seek humiliation?

"We’ve lost."

Understanding this, Liang Hongying sighed, admitting defeat.

Li Feng smiled slightly, turning to look at Yue Shan and others who were getting up. He handled them with care, only making them briefly unable to move, and they could stand after a pause.

Yue Shan and others, sitting on the ground, wore complex expressions; they struggled for two years over the leader position, only to be easily defeated by this newcomer, making the past years seem pointless.

But defeat must be accepted.

There aren’t so many tricks among the Nine Layers Mountain disciples.

"We’ve lost; from now on, Vermilion Bird Camp listens to you," Yue Shan said in a muffled voice.

Xu Kaishan and the others didn’t argue; at this point, refusing to admit it would be more than losing the fight.

Li Feng saw them lower their heads and didn’t continue to press, raising his eyes to the crowd: "Is there anyone else in Vermilion Bird Camp who’s not convinced?"

"If so, just come forward. I, Li Feng, will face you. If no one does, then whoever dares to act deceitfully in the future, don’t blame me for not being polite."

Li Feng’s commanding presence and powerful aura sent shivers through the Vermilion Bird Camp disciples watching.

Yet no one dared to step forward.

The five great generals were the camp’s strongest; these people had long been subdued. Since even when working together, they lost, expecting to beat him would only be self-degradation.
