After wandering for an hour, Lin Xun quickly found out the address of the Vulture House from others.


He spent a piece of gold coin to hire a chariot toward Vulture House.


A piece of gold coin was able to hire seven or eight chariots in other cities! It could be proved indirectly that the price level in the Forbidden City was especially high. It was really difficult to live in the Forbidden City if one didn’t have enough money.


In the northwest area of the Forbidden City


This was a civilian area in the Forbidden City. People who live here were from all over the world. But its prosperity couldn’t be compared with other areas of the Forbidden City.


Even so, this area was also bustling with restaurants, inns, commercial houses, brothels. One could meet his every need here.


Vulture House was a restaurant in this area.


It was very remote. Not until Lin Xun got down the chariot and searched this area for a long time did he find it in the corner of a lane.


This was a two-story building, ordinary and unimpressive.


It was nearly noon. A dozen guests scattered in the center of Vulture House. The business seemed to be not good.


“Should it be the owner of this restaurant that instructor Shu Sanqi mentioned?”


Lin Xun looked up at the signboard of the restaurant. He was surprised that Vulture House was written in ancient characters.


He thought that since the master of Vulture House was a friend of Shu Sanqi, he must also be a great strongman. Who ever thought that Vulture House was just a common restaurant located in the civilian area.


Lin Xun didn’t despise its location. Many strongmen liked to live in unnoticeable place like small downtown. That was called “hiding in the city”.


When Lin Xun was about to step into Vulture House, there was clatters of hoofs in the street in the distance. The earth shook as if thousands of troops were approaching.


As soon as the hoof sounded, Lin Xun saw that a group of practitioners were riding fierce beasts, roaring towards here.


Crack! Crack! Crack!


On the beast, the practitioners waved their long whips and scolded the passers-by who were blocking the road. They were extremely arrogant.


“Get out of the way! Damn it, don’t you have an eye, get out of the way! ”


“Go back if you don’t want to die!”


Pedestrians on the street were screaming to dodge, making much chaos.


A few people were too slow to dodge, so they were directly hit by the fierce beasts and flew out, screaming on the ground.


There were also some pedestrians who had dodged but they were still beaten by the long whips, crying out on the ground.


How Arrogant!


They totally ignored life!


This was Lin Xun’s first impression of these practitioners.


Riding beats at will in the street was almost the same as trampling on life.


What was more, those immoral practitioners were extremely proud to do this and laughed constantly.


Suddenly, Lin Xun’s pupils shrank.


Not far away from him, a little boy stood still crying. He seemed to be frightened and forget to dodge.


Crack!


The fierce beast at the front had galloped over. The practitioner on the beast grinned and lashed at the little boy.


If this blow was carried out, the little boy’s brain would broke on the spot!


There was screams in the street. Many people couldn’t help but close their eyes. They didn’t dare to watch this poor innocent little boy dying.


At this critical moment, Lin Xun swept out like lightning. He held the little boy with his hands and rushed to the roadside.


But the whip fell on Lin Xun’s back, making his back clothes broken and leaving a bloody whip mark on his skin, which was scorching and stinging.


The only good news was that the little boy was all right. He was just scared and cried.


“What?”


The practitioner took a look with surprise at Lin Xun, and soon he sneered and retreated his gaze as he didn’t care much.


Boom


At this moment, all the practitioners on the beasts came and stopped in front of Vulture House.


A bronze chariot pulled by four black scale horses was behind the practitioners. Although there was no other decoration on it, it had a ferocious and frightening momentum.


The four ferocious black scale horses and the guarding practitioners who led the way in front showed that the owner of this chariot must be extraordinary.


Lin Xun frowned. He gave the child back to his parents first and looked up at the black scale horse chariot regardless of the bloody whip mark on his back.


Soon, a young man dressed in scarlet cape and black armor came down from the chariot. He looked cold, imposing and awe-inspiring.


The young man stepped out of the chariot and walked straight into Vulture House. Behind him, a group of guards swarmed in.


“Chi Ze comes again!”


In the street, some people said angrily, “Since more than half a year ago, he has brought people to bother Vulture House every second days. It’s really disgusting!”


“This guy didn’t have the surname of Chi originally. But his younger sister married Chi family, so he was lucky enough to have a given surname of Chi. Otherwise, how could he have such prestige today?”


Some people despised him.


“You are wrong. Although Chi Ze was born in a poor family, he has a very good talent. He joined the army when he was young and made a lot of military achievements in the battlefield in many years. If he was weak in strength, he wouldn’t have the surname given by Chi Family just because of his sister’s relationship.”


“No matter how he got this surname, this guy is so arrogant. Does he really think that he can act at will in the Forbidden City with the surname of Chi? People like him will get rid of their pride sooner or later! ”


“Although I’d like to see the same result as you wish, it’s obvious that Chi Ze can do whatever he wants in the Forbidden City with the surname of Chi.”


A lot of discussion that included hatred, curse, envy and emotion came out one after another in the street.


Chi Ze?


Lin Xun immediately thought of Chi Cangmei and Chi Cangfeng, as well as many encirclements and suppressions he had encountered along the way when he came to the Forbidden City.


Although the whiplash on his back didn’t hurt him inside, it was scorching, which made Lin Xun couldn’t help but flash a chill in his black eyes.


He killed countless Chi Family practitioners along the way, but now he was whipped by a servant beside a guy who changed his name to Chi, which made Lin Xun angry.


“My friend, can you tell me why Chi Ze comes to Vulture House often?”


Lin Xun asked a passer-by in a low voice.


“Everyone knows he comes for the beauty in Vulture house!”


The man sneered, “Chi Ze is so shameless. It’s clear that the beauty doesn’t like him, but he comes here again and again. He’s really a mean person. Even if he changed his surname to Chi, he can’t change his inferiority.”


“A Beauty?”


Lin Xun was stunned.


“Man, you come here for the first time, right? About a year ago, the old shopkeeper of Vulture House recruited a woman. She was extremely beautiful and cold in temperament as an iceberg. All of a sudden, her appearance made a sensation in the streets nearby and attracted many diners.”


A look of salivation and ecstasy appeared on the man’s face, “I have seen the beauty once. Her figure and face is so beautiful that I can’t be picky any. If I could sleep with her for one night…”


Lin Xun frowned and interrupted, “But I don’t think the business of this Vulture House is good. Do you know why?”


The man glanced at Lin Xun with a little dissatisfaction and answered, “Of course its business is bad. In the past half year, demon Chi Ze has often come with his sinister subordinates. Who dares to visit Vulture House often?”


After he finished, he rolled his eyes at Lin Xun and left.


Lin Xun stood alone and fell into thinking. If he was right, the beauty who had been pestered by Chi Ze for more than half a year should be instructor Young Ke.


Didn’t she have beautiful appearance and cold temperament as an iceberg?


Instructor Young Ke left Bloodthirsty Camp more than one year ago, so the appearing time of that beauty also coincided.


“Does Chi Ze have a bold mind? How he dares to covet the beauty of instructor Young Ke. Isn’t he afraid of being beaten to death?”


Lin Xun couldn’t help shaking his head when he thought about it. If it was really Young Ke, how could she not beat Chi Ze but bear him in this half year?


Bang Bang Bang.


At this moment, in the opposite Vulture House, a loud bang sounded. Soon, more than ten diners were hurled out.


“Get out of here! Don’t you see my master working? If I see you in Vulture House again, I will kill you without mercy! ”


One of Chi Ze’s attendants walked out and gave a scorn to the diners that had fallen to the ground.


Lin Xun frowned. He went up to pick up a diner and asked, “What happened inside?”


The man screamed, “Chi Ze was rejected by the cold beauty again. So he hurt others madly now.”


Lin Xun’s heart was tightened. He didn’t hesitate to rush into Vulture House.


He didn’t worry about whether Young Ke would be bullied. He worried that Young ke would be hated by Chi Family after she bullied Chi Ze!


Now, Lin Xun was clear about the contradiction between the aristocratic family and the poor. Even if Chi Ze was unreasonable in the matter, the situation would be bad for Young Ke because Chi Family would like to maintain its dignity of Chi family!


“Vulture House is out of business today. Go away!”


In front of the door, two guards stood there. When they saw Lin Xun, they immediately shouted.


Coincidentally, one of the guards was the one who whipped Lin Xun just now. When he recognized Lin Xun, he said with a ferocious smile, “It’s you, boy. Why you here? Didn’t that whip too soft for you?”


As he said, he raised his iron whip and was about to hit Lin Xun.


Crack!


Lin Xun didn’t retreat or move, but Lin Xun’s slap came to the guard’s face and made him whine instantly. His mouth and nose were bleeding, his teeth fell out. His body turned around like a top because of heavy force of this slap. Finally, he fell to his knees with a big bang and almost fainted.
