CHAPTER 993: CHAPTER 290: DEVIL CREATURES AT THE BANQUET

"Boss Jiang has woken up, we need to cozy up to him properly from now on."

"That’s right, with Boss Jiang awake, the Jiang Family is not what it used to be, we really should curry favor."

"Do you think Boss Jiang knows about Madam Jiang’s affair? It’s strange that he’s been awake for days without making a move."

"Who knows? It’s better to keep our mouths shut about these things and act as if we know nothing; otherwise, we might get into trouble without realizing it."

"Yes, yes, I’m being too talkative."

The crowd was buzzing with discussions.

Steward Loh stood in a corner with a peculiar expression, while many servants weaved through the guests.

Jiang Qingtian approached Steward Loh from the side, prompting Steward Loh to hurry forward, "Young Master."

"Where is my father?"

Jiang Qingtian scrutinized Steward Loh, his eyebrows slightly frowning, unsure why his father and Steward Loh felt a little strange to him since he returned, but he couldn’t pinpoint the oddity.

"Master is still upstairs, he’ll be down shortly."

As soon as Steward Loh finished speaking, Jiang Feng appeared at the top of the stairs, flanked by two men with cold and eerie expressions.

When Jiang Feng started walking downstairs, everyone who had been talking fell silent and looked toward him.

Once Jiang Feng descended, many flatterers gathered around, trying to ingratiate themselves.

Jiang Feng wore an indifferent expression, drowning in a sea of male voices; he glanced around but didn’t find anyone suitable.

This body is too weak; he needs a better one. That’s why he organized this banquet, though no one knows its purpose, only he does.

As Jiang Feng was about to retract his gaze, two tall and graceful people entered through the doorway; he narrowed his eyes, a dangerous smile curling his lips.

There are people in this world who perfectly match his desires. Their strong Vital Qi and powerful aura kept his eyes glued to them. The man—it has to be him, and the woman beside him, brimming with Spiritual Energy, is just as much his favorite ’food.’

Qin Qin and Mo Yunchen immediately saw Jiang Feng, and their expressions changed the instant they did.

"Jiang Feng is indeed not right."

Since entering, they felt a strong, invasive gaze locked on them and realized, upon meeting Jiang Feng’s eyes, that it was his.

"Hmm!"

Even if they couldn’t discern whether Jiang Feng was possessed by demons, Mo Yunchen’s understanding of him told him that this Jiang Feng was off. His sinister and eerie aura was nowhere near the Jiang Feng of the past.

Qin Qin was just about to step forward when an arm reached out and grabbed her from the side; Qin Qin startled and looked over.

Qi Tianshang appeared from behind her, sternly fixing his gaze on Qin Qin, "Come with me and leave this place. Jiang Feng is not the real Jiang Feng. There’s a powerful demon inside him that neither you nor Mo Yunchen could handle, you understand? You mustn’t act recklessly, or else there will be trouble."

Mo Yunchen gazed at Qi Tianshang, his expression slightly somber.

"Do you know what’s inside him?"

Qin Qin questioned Qi Tianshang, who shook his head, "I don’t know; Meiji told me, so you must come with me."

"Meiji? The demon that attacked me? How do you know her?"

Qi Tianshang gave a wry smile, only to have his hand on Qin Qin’s wrist thrown off by Mo Yunchen.

Qi Tianshang withdrew his hand and placed it by his side, then spoke in a low voice, "Meiji attacked you because of me, I’ve already warned her. Qin Qin, you must leave here with me, if Jiang Feng sets his sights on you, I’m afraid neither you nor Mo Yunchen will be able to leave."

"I..."

Qin Qin was about to speak when Jiang Qingtian joyfully approached from the side, "Qin Qin, you’ve come?"

He didn’t expect Qin Qin to show up here, and seeing her today made him very happy; just a glimpse of her could make him glad.

Jiang Qingtian intended to approach, but Mo Yunchen’s gaze made him halt two meters away from Qin Qin, not daring to proceed further.

Jiang Feng headed toward Qin Qin, Mo Yunchen, and Qi Tianshang.

Upon seeing Jiang Feng approach, Qi Tianshang’s expression changed slightly, positioning himself between Qin Qin and Jiang Feng.

Mo Yunchen’s demeanor turned colder, his phoenix eyes narrowing.

"Yunchen, Qin Qin, welcome to my banquet."

Jiang Feng’s expression was peculiar, though Jiang Qingtian beside him failed to notice.

Jiang Feng cast a glance at Qi Tianshang, showing a strange expression and a sharp gaze.

Qi Tianshang met Jiang Feng’s eyes without flinching.
