Chapter 577 - Chapter 577: Scheme

"Sir, you said this monster is strange. I don't know where it's strange. Could you tell me?" Hearing these words, Li Chan's eyes slightly trembled and she hurriedly asked for more information.

Because she had already noticed that this monster was not normal. After all, monsters are not fierce beasts; they have intelligence and understand things. But this monster was like a fierce beast, only wanting to take her life. This made her think that there must be something strange about it.

"Sure, I can tell you. But the two of them must stay away from me." Chu Feng looked at the old couple and said coldly.

"What did you say?" ! "There's something you need to tell me again..." Hearing Chu Feng's words, the elderly couple, who had long harbored hatred towards Chu Feng, glared angrily and their faces turned red.

"Uncle Shuai, Aunt Bi, please don't be rude. This is a person who saved my life." But before they could finish speaking, Li Chan spoke up again to stop them and advised the two of them, "You two, leave for a while."

"Miss, this person has no idea the truth. If you leave here alone, it would be too unsafe." The old man warned.

"Yes, Miss, this person's origin is unknown. Maybe this monster is his accomplice." The old woman also agreed.

"Relax, I believe this Lord." Li Chan said with a smile.

And in the face of such Li Chan, the elderly couple couldn't say anything more. Instead, they glanced at Chu Feng and warned:

"Boy, you'd better be careful with your actions. This is my Li family's territory. If you dare do anything harmful to my Miss, you won't be able to leave here alive." After saying this harsh sentence, the old man and the old woman left.

"Huh" Regarding the old man's words, Chu Feng merely gave a contemptuous smile. He could clearly tell that the old man was warning Chu Feng on the surface, but in reality, he was threatening Chu Feng, telling him not to talk nonsense or else he would be unkind to Chu Feng.

"Lord, I wonder what you have discovered. Can you tell me now?" After the two old couples left, Li Chan asked again.

However, Chu Feng did not answer. Instead, he shouted loudly, "Those two old guys, hiding here to eavesdrop, don't you think it's shameless?"

"Damn it, this is so stupid. This young man came from nowhere, yet he was able to sense that we were hiding here. Could it be that he is a boundary spirit mage?" After hearing Chu Feng's words, the old man hiding in the nearby jungle muttered angrily.

"Old man, what should we do? This young man seems not simple. He won't really have discovered something and exposed us, right?" At the same time, the old woman was also full of worry.

"Now there's nothing we can do. We can't attack this young man in front of the young lady. This young man has some strength. If he can kill him, that would be fine. But if we can't kill him, provoking the young lady, we'll have to suffer the consequences."

"This young man does have some connections. But there's no need to worry too much. The monster was hired by the Ma family and was manipulated by a high-level boundary spirit mage. Even if this young man is very powerful, he can only notice that the monster is not normal but cannot restore its nature."

"Moreover, even if the monster regains its nature, it has nothing to do with us. Don't be afraid. Tell the Ma family about this matter and see what they plan. If not, we'll have to eliminate this young man and the young lady together. For our little boy, we can do anything."

After saying this, the old man leaped forward and vanished into the distance.

"Ah~" The old woman gave Chu Feng a meaningful look again before following the old man's figure away.

"Your two servants, you're not very obedient." After the old couple walked away, Chu Feng said to Li Chan with a smile.

"Huh" Li Chan was a smart person and naturally understood what had happened, but since the old couple were from his Li family, she could only and didn't know how to explain.

"This monster should have been fed special drugs and blessed with a special barrier to seal its nature, which is why it is so bloodthirsty and lost its mind."

"That is to say, the monster appearing here is a trap. It should be waiting for you here."

"And why are you here? Who knows you are here? These things, you should know well in your heart, right?" "And by the way, I am a boundary spirit mage. So when that monster attacked you, I sensed that the old man and that old lady were hiding nearby. They were just watching the show."

"Of course, they are your close friends, while I am just an outsider. If you believe me, be a little cautious towards them in the future. If you don't believe me, just pretend I haven't said anything at all." Chu Feng didn't hold back and directly stated that the old couple were traitors.

At this moment, Li Chan fell into silence. Her face changed repeatedly, her eyes revealing helplessness, unease, and even a wave of panic.

In fact, even before Chu Feng said everything, he had already had doubts. Because it was those old couple who brought her here and left her here for some reason after taking her there.

When he encountered the demonic beast, no matter how she shouted, those old couple didn't show up. But when the demonic beast was subdued, the couple immediately showed up. This had already made her suspicious.

Now, when Chu Feng said this, he was even more convinced that his suspicion might be correct. These couple really might have been sentenced to harm the Li family.

"You and I met by chance. I acted out of concern for this demonic beast causing harm to others. As for telling you this, it's because you seem nice and I don't want you to be harmed by someone else."

"So you don't need to be grateful to me. Let's say goodbye now." Seeing Li Chan's helpless and panicked reaction, Chu Feng smiled triumphantly in his heart, then feigned as if he was about to leave and let go of her.

"Sir, don't go!" Just as Chu Feng had predicted, when Chu Feng was about to leave, Li Chan suddenly became extremely panicked. In addition to the tension, she even grabbed Chu Feng's hand.

"Lady Li, men and women should not touch each other. What are you doing?" Chu Feng shook off Li Chan's hand. This was not a pretense, but for women other than those he found attractive, Chu Feng couldn't tolerate it. Other women touching him was unacceptable to him.

"Sir, I'm truly sorry. I was too nervous."

"However, you are such a kind person. Could you please help me? I beg you, help me, save my family, Li family. If you are willing to help me, I promise to repay you with a large sum of money." After letting go of Chu Feng's hand, Li Chan grabbed Chu Feng's collar again and pleaded desperately, almost kneeling down.

"Miss Li, don't do this. We can have a reasonable conversation. It seems that you are facing a serious crisis now. What happened? Please tell me."

"I may not be a great hero with noble ideals, but I don't want honest people to be bullied by bad people."

"So, if I can help, I can give it a try. If I can't help, I will also give it a try. As for the reward, if I really can help in any way, we can talk about it after the matter is resolved."

When hearing the word "reward", Chu Feng immediately changed his expression. At this moment, he seemed more like a businessman.

But in fact, Chu Feng did this on purpose. He wanted to deliberately give Li Chan the illusion that he was a person who is only interested in profit but also has certain principles.

In fact, Chu Feng's real purpose was not the reward given by the Li family, but the treasure that the Li and Ma families knew about.
