Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

Dongfang Sheng was taken aback and stood rooted to the spot; he had not expected to be questioned like this, and was at a loss for words.

After all, a wrong answer to such a question could likely invite fatal trouble.

If the man's surname was Ye, then Dongfang Sheng naturally would not take it to heart, as he had heard about the incident that happened in the Suburb of Capital Region half a year ago.

And now, Zhu Guangbo of the Zhu Family had entered the Northern Border. Although he was only acting as the Northern Border King for the time being, he had already begun to take control of the Northern Border.

More importantly, the influence of the Zhu Family behind Zhu Guangbo was no small matter, and Zhu Guangbo himself was young and promising, so it wouldn't be long before he truly had control over the Northern Border.

As for that Ye surname, after the Capital Region incident, he had been effectively driven out of the Northern Border and could almost be considered a homeless stray dog.

While Dongfang Sheng was still in a daze, a sturdy elder behind him stepped forward slightly and whispered a few words into his ear.

In an instant, Dongfang Sheng, the Lord of Dongcheng of the Eastern Border, smiled and the look in his eyes turned from reverence to Ye Feng to thick mockery.

"This Lord understands now. Your last name should be Ye, shouldn't it? The one from the Zhu Family is already thirty-five, obviously much more composed, whereas you appear to be barely into your twenties, much younger indeed. Am I correct in my analysis?" Dongfang Sheng said with a playful smile.

Ye Feng also smiled and responded, "Since you have already guessed, what will you do about it?"

Before the words were even finished, Dongfang Sheng burst into loud, mocking laughter.

"If we were talking about half a year ago, I might have had respect and fear for you, but now, well, I don't mean to be rude, but I want to ask you, how is your current situation any different from those homeless stray dogs outside?"

"Insolence, Dongfang Sheng, you are courting death!" Xiao Chuanqi roared in fury, his fists clenching tightly as he prepared to take action.

Sima Zhantian also bared his teeth and snarled, "A mere Lord of the Eastern Border dares to insult our Northern Border King in public. Dongfang Sheng, you are committing a capital offense!"

"Capital offense?"

Dongfang Sheng's laughter became even more triumphant, and he hummed, "The current Northern Border King is Zhu Guangbo. What is he worth? He can't even protect his own throne and he wants to come to my Eastern Border and act wildly? Utterly laughable!"

Turning to Xiao Chuanqi, Dongfang Sheng said, "Brother Xiao, you are after all a heroic figure, and I once had quite the respect for you. How could you, of all people, lack such foresight, still following a fallen house? What future can there be in that?"

Ye Feng silently shook his head and sighed, suddenly snorting, "Dongfang Sheng, do you think I wouldn't dare kill you, or that I no longer have the power to?"

"Kill me? You're welcome to try. Just with you few people, you want to kill me?"

Dongfang Sheng stood tall in the middle of the courtyard, his demeanor growing increasingly arrogant and defiant, and he exclaimed, "Let's be frank, you're less than nothing now. A phoenix in decline is not as good as a chicken. To speak frankly, you'd better let go of my son-in-law. Perhaps out of consideration for your former status, this Lord might be lenient and not pursue the matter further!"

Ye Feng's gaze suddenly hardened, and he spoke forcefully, "Dongfang Sheng, Lord of Dongcheng in the Eastern Border, you have committed insubordination by insulting a king of a realm in public. According to the laws of Xuanyuan Nation, death!"

As soon as his words fell, Sima Zhantian acted, directly pouncing forward, evidently awaiting his master's command.

But as soon as Sima Zhantian made his move, the sturdy old man behind him, dressed in a tight uniform, flashed forward like a specter to block in front of Dongfang Sheng.

Seeing this, Xiao Chuanqi's eyebrows shot up and he likewise darted forward, while another Huajin Grandmaster elder quickly joined the fray.

At the same time, the guards brought by Dongfang Sheng sprang into action. Although they were numerous, totaling more than thirty, they were no match for Xia Lengchan and Li Jingang, both Grandmasters and not far from the Huajin Grandmaster Realm.

The entire courtyard was suddenly filled with the sounds of rushing wind and cranes crying out; especially the swift and powerful moves of Sima Zhantian and Xiao Chuanqi. Each punch seemed to create a thunderous explosion of air, the force of which was enormous.

The two elders' movements were ghostly and swift, but they dared not confront them head-on.

At that moment, Lu Bentian, who was bound in the hall, heard the noise outside and could not help but grin triumphantly and said, "That's great, my father-in-law has come, he is here to save me, we are saved now."

Loo Manager clenched his teeth in anger and said, "I never would have thought, that boy turned out to be the former Northern Border King, no wonder he dared to be so recklessly arrogant in our Eastern Border Base Camp!"

Lu Bentian snorted coldly and said, "So what, that was in the past. Haven't you heard what my father-in-law said? Half a year ago, that boy had a change of fortune, even losing his princely title to someone else, and he almost got killed. Right now, he is nothing but a homeless stray dog!"

Loo Manager suddenly snorted and said, "Indeed, that boy made himself a target due to his prominence in the past. There are countless people in the Capital Region who wish for his death. If he were to die here in the Eastern Border today, I'm afraid no one would bother to inquire."

Lu Bentian laughed heartily and said, "You're right, if my father-in-law can kill this villain today, it will certainly cause the Capital Region to take a fresh look at him, and it might even lead to a good connection with the Zhu Family. By then, my father-in-law could very well rise rapidly through the ranks, and I will follow him to ascend to heaven, and may even enter the Capital Region."

Loo Manager also laughed and said, "Then, allow me to extend my early congratulations to Commander Lu. Once you rise high and rapidly, please do not forget your brother here."

"Certainly, certainly..." Lu Bentian replied, brimming with pride.

And at that moment, the yard outside suddenly quieted down, all actions ceased at this instant.

In the yard, Dongfang Sheng, full of terror, stood there. His legs trembled nonstop like sifting chaff, while Xiao Chuanqi's knife was pressed against his throat.

The two highly skilled experts he was proud of were now powerlessly collapsed in a corner of the yard, with bloodstains at the corners of their mouths. Although they were not yet dead, they had been severely wounded.

Although these two elders were also Huajin Grandmasters, they ultimately could not compare with battle-hardened Peak Grandmasters like Sima Zhantian and Xiao Chuanqi.

However, Ye Feng had been standing at the top of the hall's stairs from the beginning to the end, he didn't even lift a finger.

Dongfang Sheng's face was filled with panic as he looked toward Xiao Chuanqi and repeatedly said, "Brother Chuanqi, we knew each other back in the day after all. What are you doing? Surely you don't really intend to kill me?"

Xiao Chuanqi did not answer, instead, he turned to look at Ye Feng and asked, "Your Highness, how shall he be dealt with?"

"Kill!" Ye Feng spoke.

That Dongfang Sheng's face suddenly contorted with fear, and he exclaimed, "No... you can't kill me, I am the Lord of Dongcheng in the Eastern Border, if you kill me..."

But before he could finish his words, Xiao Chuanqi's knife swiftly slashed downwards, and Dongfang Sheng's head soared into the air.

"Spread the word, the Northern Border King has arrived to discuss matters of great importance with the King of the Eastern Border. Anyone who dares to make the slightest move against this edict shall be put to death without mercy!" Ye Feng finished speaking, turned around, and walked into the hall with Hong Qingyan.

At this time, Lu Bentian inside the hall was also trembling, a look of terror emerging on his face.

"Dead... My father-in-law, he was actually... he's been killed, how could this be, how is this possible!" Lu Bentian obviously could not believe it.

The expression on Loo Manager's face turned ashen. He knew that this time his fate was more likely to be unfortunate than fortunate.

Seeing Ye Feng walk in, Lu Bentian looked up to the sky and howled, "Ye Feng, you're no longer the Northern Border King, by killing my father-in-law, who is the Lord of the Eastern Border, you've gone too far. Once the King of the Eastern Border returns, he will never pardon you. You will surely be beyond redemption!"

Ye Feng didn't respond, he didn't even bother to look back at him. He just held Hong Qingyan, walked straight across the hall, and entered the Inner Courtyard from the side.

Lu Bentian suddenly stood frozen in place, suddenly feeling an indescribable sense of loss and bleakness. He felt like a loudly barking dog while the person who he was barking at never spared him a glance from beginning to end.

This was an act of disdain, a deep-rooted scorn!

This instantly fueled Lu Bentian's rage like thunder, and he gnashed his teeth and roared, "Just you wait, once the King of the Eastern Border returns, I will make sure to report this matter. Ye Feng, I will make sure you die!"
