The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

465: Chapter 461: Respect from the Bottom of My Heart (Second Update!) 465: Chapter 461: Respect from the Bottom of My Heart (Second Update!) A group of people surrounded Kong Cheenfei and others, chatting and laughing, mingling various flattering words among themselves.

“Young Master Kong’s methods are an eye-opener for us all!”

“Right, these are truly the skills of an immortal, so astonishing!”

“Young Master Kong, we’ll be relying on your care for the allocation of spots to the East Continent this time!”

“Indeed, indeed, as the talents from the Southern Continent head out, we’ll need Young Master Kong to guide and lead us even more!”

“Ah, why haven’t Zhou Li and the others from Bin City arrived yet?

It’s understandable for Fuu Yushan from further away to not have arrived, but Zhou Li is taking his sweet time…”

Over there, all sorts of discussions buzzed like a swarm of bees.

Lin Tian and Xu Tangge, however, were forgotten on the side.

At that moment, Guo Dan approached near Lin Tian and glanced over at the scene before scoffing at Lin Tian, “See that?

All these big shots here are key figures from the Southern Continent, even the regional authorities have to be polite.

But now they have to be utterly respectful towards Brother Fei, that’s what I call real ability!”

“But I heard them saying earlier that you have some skill, no wonder you can be a bodyguard for such a wealthy lady!

However, this kind of selling of your labor and body should really be stopped.”

Yet.

Lin Tian ignored Guo Dan, as if a fly was mindlessly buzzing nearby.

He checked the time; it was nearly eight in the evening.

At that moment.

Footsteps echoed from the entrance of the banquet hall.

Everyone turned around, following the sound, and saw several individuals stepping in.

“Please wait a moment, I will go and welcome Elder Fuu, Elder Zhou, and others!”

Upon seeing the arrivals, Kong Lifu excused himself to the crowd and hurried toward the entrance to greet them.

Lin Tian also saw the newcomers—Zhou Li, Fuu Yushan, Liu Yan, and other bigwigs.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he muttered to himself, “I want to see what kind of shenanigans Kong Cheenfei is up to and which sect his master belongs to.”

As Lin Tian pondered to himself, Kong Lifu already approached Zhou Li, Fuu Yushan, and the others.

“Elder Zhou, Elder Fuu, Elder Liu…

It has indeed been a toilsome wait for you all!”

Kong Lifu greeted them jovially and politely ushered them inside.

However, his outward courtesy was one thing, his words laced with barbs were obvious to anyone perceptive.

Over the years in Bin City, it had always been Zhou Li who held sway, with other families suppressed under them.

This included the Kong Family.

Now with his son making a name for himself, the rise of the Kong Family was unstoppable, and they no longer needed to give face to Zhou Li and his ilk.

Unexpectedly to Kong Lifu, Zhou Li and Fuu Yushan didn’t give Kong Lifu any face either.

“Elder Kong, you are too kind!”

Zhou Li nodded somberly to Kong Lifu and then proceeded with Fuu Yushan, Liu Yan, and the others directly inside.

“This way, please!

My son Kong Cheenfei is right over here!”

Kong Lifu followed them, leading the way with pride and smugness on his face.

Yet.

Upon reaching where Lin Tian was, Zhou Li, Fuu Yushan, Liu Yan—the three men—stopped in their tracks.

Ignoring Kong Lifu, the three men approached Lin Tian with respect and in unison said, “Mr.

Lin!”

“You’ve arrived?

Then have a seat over there and watch the show!”

Lin Tian nodded slightly to the three men and pointed to the seats nearby.

The three men bowed deeply once again before respectfully taking their seats on the side.

And throughout, they completely disregarded Kong Lifu and his party.

Such a scene left everyone else bewildered.

“What do you three mean by this?

Do you know who he is?”

Kong Lifu’s eyes narrowed, and he frowned, “Kong Cheenfei said this person has obtained something that the Immortal Mountain Sect Elder needs; he must be held accountable!

Are you intending to get involved?”

“Elder Kong, do watch your words, or else the consequences could be very ugly!”

Zhou Li gave Kong Lifu a cold look and said in a deep voice.

“Very ugly consequences?

Are you threatening me?”

An icy voice came from the other side.

Kong Cheenfei stood up tall and glared at Zhou Li, shouting, “Crawl over here and kneel before me!

A minuscule ant, daring to disregard me!”

But Zhou Li kept his head bowed in silence, completely ignoring Kong Cheenfei.

“You want Elder Zhou to kneel?”

Lin Tian suddenly let out a light chuckle, turned to Zhou Li, and said, “He wants you to kneel to him, but I forbid you from standing.

Do you dare?”

“Mr.

Lin, I dare not!”

Zhou Li slightly bowed while seated, and hurriedly replied with respect.

His demeanor was one of deep reverence, as if it reached to his very bones.

“You old fool, you really have no idea!

Do you know who Brother Cheenfei is?

He is the disciple of a master, capable of commanding the wind and the rain, performing inconceivable skills.

And here you are, revering a slightly skilled country bumpkin like he is something, it’s like you’re living a dog’s life!”

At this point, Guo Dan, seemingly unable to contain her anger, yelled out in indignation.

In her eyes, these old men were too clueless!

Slap~

However, Lin Tian regarded Guo Dan as nothing more than a fly, but Zhou Li would not be soft-handed.

He slapped her across the face, sending her flying to the side.

“Dandan!”

Guo Hetong and Bei Zhiqi, a couple, cried out in alarm and hurried over to lift up their daughter, “You…

a personage of Bin City, you actually struck a young girl!”

Bei Zhiqi’s eyes reddened with anger, after which she glared at Zhou Li and Lin Tian and then said to Kong Cheenfei, “Young Master Kong, you’ve got to stand up for Dandan.

She only spoke out of turn, it doesn’t warrant someone hitting her!”

“Zhou Li, you’re seeking death!”

Kong Cheenfei shouted fiercely and stepped forward.

The True Qi within his body began to hum.

But at that moment, a delicate shout came from outside, “The banquet has not even started, why is there such an uproar?”

As she spoke, a tall figure walked in from outside the banquet hall.

The newcomer was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, dressed in a black leather outfit, with black boots on her feet, and her ponytail swinging energetically from side to side.

Her delicate face was cool and detached from worldly concerns.

“Sister, you’ve arrived!”

Seeing the girl who had appeared, Kong Cheenfei retracted his aura, leaving Lin Tian and Zhou Li to the side, and quickly went to greet her.

As the girl approached, Kong Cheenfei hurriedly introduced her to Kong Lifu and the others, “This is my junior sister at the sect, Hee Lingxuan, also my master’s daughter!”

“Greetings to Hee Fairy!”

Kong Lifu and the others, including the Martial Arts Grandmaster Bu Lan Kong, had faces of solemn respect as they quickly bowed in greeting.

This young girl was none other than the daughter of the Immortal Mountain Sect Master; her esteemed identity was self-evident.

Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster wouldn’t dare act presumptuous in her presence.

Hee Lingxuan lifted her proud little chin, scanning the crowd.

However, she noticed that a few people hadn’t stood up to greet her.

“Who are these people?”

Hee Lingxuan’s displeased eyes fell upon Lin Tian and Zhou Li.

“How bold, not to stand when my sister arrives!”

Kong Cheenfei yelled angrily at that moment.

“She doesn’t deserve that respect!”

Lin Tian slightly raised his head and glanced at Hee Lingxuan, finding her face somewhat familiar, but he didn’t dwell on it and continued, “As for Zhou Li and the others, unless I say so, they won’t stand, either!”
