Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1561: The Little Shopkeeper Files a Complaint
"Then let's go to the West City."
Zi Yan pondered for a moment, realizing that Li Feng was right. The West City was indeed chaotic, but there were no major forces there. They were just passing through, and even if someone got in their way, it would be easy to handle.
But going in any of the other three directions would be different.
Xuanwu Avenue was the core area of the Dragon Tiger Sect. Let alone the Nine Dragons and Nine Tigers of the sect, if their Sect Master Han Sanqian was provoked, it would be impossible to escape.
Vermilion Bird Avenue was similar. If the shopkeeper of Tongfu called them for tea, it would surely be a deadly trap.
Azure Dragon Avenue might be heavily scrutinized by both sides. It looks the safest but is actually the most dangerous. In contrast, the perilous West City becomes relatively safer.
Ran Yue clearly had some shadows regarding the West City, as she had a harrowing experience there. If possible, Ran Yue really didn't want to go there again.
But now, she was practically aboard Li Feng's ship, and she had no choice but to pass by, which should be okay.
Ran Yue thought about it and nodded, leaving Xiao Luobing's opinion less important.
"To the West City."
Seeing no objections from the three women, Li Feng made the decision, but to ensure a smooth passage through the West City, Li Feng made the three women wear cloaks and hats to avoid attracting unwanted attention.
With that, the four of them headed directly west, towards the West District.
"Damn, they managed to escape."
Tong Ling'er clenched her fists, as the necklace around her neck was a birthday gift, very important to her, but now it was broken.
Twice she suffered losses at the hands of a man, and Tong Ling'er remembered Li Feng with hatred. No one had ever made her suffer such a setback and still walked away unscathed.
"He took my King Sword."
Chen Ziming was even more furious. He couldn't let his sword disappear, even though he was the legitimate son of the Chen Family, and money was no issue. This King Sword couldn't be bought with money.
If he lost another sword, it wasn't just a loss of face but also a potential family disgrace.
He already lived in the shadow of his brother Chen Ziqi's Jinghong Sword and always wanted to surpass him, so as not to be always under his shadow.
The sword he held was a twin blade to Chen Ziqi's Jinghong, which made it even more significant.
Losing the sword would mean not just losing face but possibly losing his status in the family, making it impossible for him to compete for the position of Family Head.
"Junior Sister Tong, I know your family has considerable influence in the Ninth Ring. You promised to help me retrieve the King Sword, otherwise it's not just about losing face."
"If I can't retrieve the sword, I will be utterly humiliated, and your Tong Family will also be embroiled in the wrath of my Chen Family."
"That sword is of extraordinary significance."
Chen Ziming couldn't care about dignity now; he had to get the King Sword back, even if he liked Tong Ling'er. His own interests mattered more.
He didn't lack women, but once the family gave up on him, he would have nothing left.
The intense competition within the aristocratic families was far worse than imagined.
Tong Ling'er looked at Chen Ziming with cold disdain. This Chen Ziming, usually so dignified in front of her, now revealed his true face.
He even tried to press her with his family background.
"Rest assured, Senior Brother Chen, as long as he's still in Ancestor Dragon City, he can't escape." Tong Ling'er didn't argue with Chen Ziming, as it wasn't necessary, and she also wanted to catch that bastard and avenge her shame.
Tong Ling'er immediately took out a token, something that could transmit sound over distance. She didn't go directly to her mother, the shopkeeper of Tongfu Inn, as she didn't want to mention this to her mother.
"Uncle Tan, do you have anyone with you?"
"What's wrong, our little Ling'er?"
In a book-scented courtyard at Tongfu Inn, a handsome long-haired man in snow-white clothing holding a scroll responded to the token at his waist.
"Uncle Tan, I've been bullied, you must stand up for me."
"Oh, who dares bully our little shopkeeper at Tongfu Inn?"
Liu Qinghou asked curiously. In the Ninth Ring, someone daring to bully Tong Ling'er was rare indeed, especially as Tong Ling'er had previously apprenticed with Sword Control Sect's Yun Shang, with such a teacher, who would dare bully her?
"A bastard. Today, I was attempting to conquer Heaven Tower, when I encountered a jerk. Upon meeting, this jerk was captivated by my beauty and constantly tried to flirt with me, and worse, slapped my butt."
"Ugh, Uncle Tan, I've lost all my face. I tried to confront him but couldn't beat him, and was bullied again. He not only injured our Sword Control Sect brothers but also took Senior Brother Chen's King Sword."
"Absolutely outrageous."
Huh?
Liu Qinghou was utterly shocked that someone was audacious enough to slap Tong Ling'er's butt: "Ling'er, tell me more about this person, what he looks like, what his strength is."
Tong Ling'er, sniffling and teary-eyed, complained to Liu Qinghou.
A long while later.
"Alright, I know about this. Return to the inn, I'll bring the man back."
Liu Qinghou set down the transmitting token, breathlessly climbed the hundred floors of Heaven Tower, indeed a prodigy, though not on the new talents list, evidently not that monstrous, daring to slap his niece's butt must be insane.
Though Ancestor Dragon City didn't adhere to traditional virtues, a girl's butt wasn't something to slap randomly, especially with Tong Ling'er being Tongfu's little shopkeeper. If word spread, it wasn't just a slap on the butt, it was a slap on the face.
"Sir, where are you going?"
"I'm going out for a while, if anyone asks, say I'm out on a scenic walk." Saying this, Liu Qinghou leaped from the courtyard with a single bound and vanished.
Yang Rui'er and Cheng Long also relayed the information to Han Sanqian, then waited for Han Sanqian's instructions.
Han Sanqian hadn't expected Li Feng to grow so quickly; previously, he hadn't considered Li Feng a worthy adversary. It was only when the envoy from Ten Demon Hall mentioned Li Feng disrupting their plans that he volunteered to eliminate him.
Who could have imagined that at Dragon Gate Bathhouse, things would get miscalculated, and the intervention of Marquis Wei made it impossible for him to take action?
Now things turned worse; Li Feng had directly killed one of the Nine Tigers and climbed all hundred floors of Heaven Tower in one go, as if on a meteoric rise.
And according to Yang Rui'er and Cheng Long, Li Feng was rapidly growing, possibly even past their own capabilities.
Han Sanqian wasn't about to assume Yang Rui'er and Cheng Long were underplaying the threat; considering as members of Dragon Tiger Sect's Nine Dragons and Nine Tigers, saying they might not be a match is quite humbling.
"Do you think, where might this Li Feng go after he leaves?"
Han Sanqian suddenly asked.
Yang Rui'er and Cheng Long exchanged glances, having already considered this question: "After offending Tongfu's young shopkeeper and causing trouble for Sword Control Sect, in the Ninth Ring he has no place to set foot."
"Most likely, he will head to the Sixth Ring, as his Honor Points allow him to qualify for establishing a family."
"Hmm, going to the Sixth Ring, but that's easier said than done. To get to the Sixth Ring, only four main roads exist."
"Both Xuanwu and Vermilion Bird avenues are impassable, leaving only East City's Azure Dragon Avenue and West City's White Tiger Avenue."
Han Sanqian said, with a flicker in his eyes: "The most likely route is Azure Dragon Avenue, and I'll arrange for an ambush, but West City's White Tiger Avenue cannot be dismissed. You two move in stealth, do not expose yourselves, and if Li Feng is spotted, stall him and inform me."
"This time, I will personally deal with it."
