One person was hit by Bai Mei's punch, and all three ronin fell to the ground. Bai Mei's strength was incredibly strong, and being hit by his punch was not at all pleasant.

The three ronin lay on the ground, unable to get up, some even spat blood, clearly sustaining very severe injuries.

"See if you dare to bully people again," Bai Mei said blankly after he finished.

Ling Zhenfei was amazed internally, no wonder the people from Qiulian Mountain had sent Bai Mei to kill him—Bai Mei's strength was indeed formidable.

It was indeed fortunate that he had encountered Bai Mei on the road, otherwise facing Bai Mei would have been a huge setback.

"Bai Mei, I really appreciate your help. You go rest in the car; I want to speak a few words with them."

"Okay, big brother, please be quick—I'm a bit hungry." After speaking, Bai Mei really walked over to the car and sat inside.

Ling Zhenfei walked over to Dongye Jinyi's side. By then, Dongye Jinyi was seriously injured, lying on the ground, barely able to open his eyes and speak.

"How about that, I told you not to provoke me, you're not my match. Look, my little brother has knocked you all down."

Dongye Jinyi looked at Ling Zhenfei, his face showing a trace of unwillingness as he spoke, "I advise you to hand over the Dragon Tooth Dagger and the Phoenix Elixir Furnace as soon as possible, otherwise the Family Head will definitely not let it go. If the Family Head truly comes here in person, by then you will have no chance."

Ling Zhenfei laughed, "Both the Dragon Tooth Dagger and the Phoenix Elixir Furnace come from our Huaxia, why should I hand them over to you? As for your Family Head, if he's not afraid to die, then let him come."

Ling Zhenfei stood up, no longer paying attention to these ronin. He took out his cellphone and dialed 110, reporting that on the mountain road leading to Qinghe Village, he had seen people fighting and that several were injured.

Normally, if people were injured, you'd call 120, but Ling Zhenfei felt that Dongye Jinyi and others must be very evil people, perhaps even wanted criminals.

For those who wanted to kill him, Ling Zhenfei did not want to let them go, but he also did not want to kill them, so handing them over to the police was the best solution.

After making the call, Ling Zhenfei feared the ronin might run away before the police arrived, so he used the Airborne Acupoint Sealing technique on these ronin.

After sealing these ronin's acupoints, Ling Zhenfei finally felt at ease. He moved several people to the side of the road, then drove towards the village.

In the car, Ling Zhenfei asked Bai Mei, "Where exactly is Qiulian Mountain located?"

After hearing the question, Bai Mei's gaze became a bit vacant as he said, "In a very, very distant place, atop a very high mountain."

Ling Zhenfei understood. It seemed Bai Mei didn't know the location either; this simple-minded youth was sent down the mountain and didn't even know how to return, which really seemed quite pitiful.

"Then, if you can't find Ling Zhenfei, what will you do? Won't you return?"

Bai Mei said, somewhat dejectedly, "That's what my grandfather said. He told me not to return if I couldn't kill Ling Zhenfei."

Ling Zhenfei was a bit puzzled, wondering what Bai Mei's grandfather was thinking. Sending Bai Mei down the mountain to kill him, was that really wise? If Ling Zhenfei got serious, Bai Mei would probably already be dead.

They quickly reached the manor with Bai Mei. After getting out of the car, Bai Mei was somewhat stunned by the sight in front of him, with busy crowds all around, leaving him not knowing what to do.

Ling Zhenfei led Bai Mei inside the manor. He'd asked Bai Mei in the car and knew he hadn't eaten much for several days.

You should know that even a Spiritual Cultivator, unless they are at the Realm of Fasting, can't go long without food. The body needs energy to move, and though Northern Spiritual Energy is powerful, it can't replace food.

He directly took Bai Mei into the dining hall of Xishan Manor. At this moment, it wasn't mealtime, and there were no other diners. Bai Lin and others were inside peeling potatoes, preparing for lunch.

Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei come in, Bai Lin and Xue Bing quickly stood up to greet him.

"Master, you've arrived?" Two people said to Ling Zhenfei with the utmost respect.

Ling Zhenfei nodded and greeted the two, then went on to greet the other chefs as well.

"Master, who is this?" Bai Lin asked curiously after seeing Bai Mei.

Because Bai Mei's appearance was simply too strange, he wasn't old, but he had long white eyebrows.

Furthermore, with Bai Mei's dazed expression, it was just too odd, which prompted Bai Lin to ask.

"This is Bai Mei, he's a guest of mine. By the way, what are you guys preparing for lunch? I will make something for Bai Mei to eat."

"Master, what would Bai Mei like to eat? I will go make it," Xue Bing volunteered eagerly.

Ling Zhenfei waved his hand and said, "No need, just watch on the side. I will cook for Bai Mei."

And with that, he started to cook. Seeing that they had already prepared the potatoes, tomatoes, and some other vegetables, Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and took to the kitchen himself to make Bai Mei a simple hot and sour shredded potato and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

These were very common dishes, and seeing that there was also some meat, he made Bai Mei a dish of fried meat with hot peppers as well.

Three very common dishes, along with a large bowl of rice with a very generous amount of rice.

All three dishes were perfect for accompanying rice, and Bai Mei, who was famished, wolfed down the food. In a moment, the large bowl of rice and three dishes were all gone, leaving the surrounding chefs stunned.

No one could imagine how Bai Mei's small frame could fit so much food.

After devouring everything, Bai Mei finally belched contentedly and stretched lazily: "That was so satisfying. I haven't eaten to my fill like this in days."

Bai Lin quietly asked Ling Zhenfei, "Master, where did you find such a treasure?"

"Stop talking nonsense, he was really hungry."

At that moment, Bai Mei smiled at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Big brother, the food you make is really delicious. Can I eat it again next time?"

"Of course, as long as you stay in our manor, you can always eat your fill and have a good meal."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mei jumped up with joy: "That's great, then I will stay here."

Ling Zhenfei was actually very pleased. Having Bai Mei living here was essentially like getting a free security guard for the manor, and with Bai Mei's strength, it was a deal not to be missed.

Ling Zhenfei made some arrangements with Bai Lin, mainly instructing him to take good care of Bai Mei, and then left the kitchen to head to the office.

As soon as Ling Zhenfei arrived at the office, Chen Qian excitedly pulled him and ran outside.

"What are you doing?" Ling Zhenfei was somewhat taken aback by Chen Qian's frenzied behavior.

Chen Qian, without saying anything, kept pulling Ling Zhenfei towards a distant place, finally stopping. Ling Zhenfei then understood Chen Qian's excitement—the reason was that one of the houses had been completed.

The main structure was entirely finished, only awaiting interior decoration.

This house included the new office area of Xishan Manor, a duty room, a new dining hall, a conference room, and, most importantly, several villas.

When the construction began, Ling Zhenfei was aware that among these villas was one designated for himself, and now, looking at these houses, his heart was overflowing with happiness.
