Looking at their appearance, they seemed to be around forty years old, though they might be older due to good maintenance. The expressions of the two men were quite cold. Upon seeing Li Fuxiu, the slightly plump man in black sneered, "You really don't know how to take a hint. You managed to escape last night by sheer luck, but do you really think our patience is limitless?"
Li Fuxiu remained silent and turned to Peng Shishan.
Peng Shishan stepped forward, gazing at the two men in black who stood about twenty meters away on a large rock, and calmly asked, "May I know how to address you two?"
"Hah, so you've brought help," the slightly plump man said with a smirk, glancing at Peng Shishan. His attitude showed no fear.
"This gentleman is from the Songnan Martial Arts Family, Old Peng of the Peng Family. You'd best not be too reckless," Li Fuxiu declared loudly from behind Peng Shishan.
"The Songnan Peng Family?" Upon hearing Li Fuxiu's words, the faces of the two men visibly froze for a moment as they murmured to each other, seemingly searching their memories for information about the Peng Family.
Upon mentioning the Peng Family, the other party clearly became more cautious. A faint smile appeared on the lips of Peng Shishan and Li Fuxiu, indicating that the Peng Family's reputation still held some weight.
"The Songnan Peng Family, one of the Seven Great Martial Arts Families. The current Ancestor is Peng Tianqi from that family, right?" The tall and thin man in black pondered for a moment before speaking in a heavy tone.
"Exactly," Peng Shishan replied cheerfully.
"Haha." After confirming this information, the tall and thin man suddenly chuckled twice, his laughter dripping with disdain and contempt.
The smiles that had just appeared on Li Fuxiu and his companions' faces vanished once again, replaced by tension.
"What are you laughing at? Do you think you have the right to look down on my Peng Family?" Peng Shishan's expression darkened instantly, clearly displeased.
"What does your Peng Family count for? How dare you interfere with our business?" The slightly plump man scoffed arrogantly.
The name of the Peng Family seemed ineffective here.
Li Fuxiu and his companions felt their previously ignited confidence doused once more, leaving them disheartened.
"You have quite an audacious mouth! Our Peng Family counts for nothing? Then what do you count for?" Peng Shishan retorted angrily.
"Our identity would scare you to death if we revealed it. Although your Peng Family means nothing to us, we don't want any trouble tonight. You'd best disappear while we're still in a good mood," the slightly plump man said with an air of arrogance and contempt.
"You're too arrogant! I can already guess who you are without needing you to say it. It seems only the Hidden Sect could be this bold," Peng Shishan said in a low voice. In the past, hearing about someone from the Hidden Sect would indeed frighten him, but now he felt a mix of tension and control; he wouldn't show any fear.
"Since you know, why don’t you step aside quickly?" The slightly plump man raised his voice.
"And what if it’s the Hidden Sect? Just because you have them as your backing doesn’t mean our Peng Family lacks support!" Peng Shishan sneered back.
"Even if your Peng Family has the Hidden Sect backing you up, you still don't have the right to stop us. There are rules in martial arts; don’t you understand? What we discovered here belongs to us," the tall and thin man said coldly.
"You’re mistaken. Our backing isn’t some Hidden Sect; it’s none other than the current number one in Huaxia Martial Arts," Peng Shishan stated firmly.
"Who?" the two men in black asked almost in unison.
