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

Chapter 146 What is the Northern King up to?

Dugu Ming was greatly astonished, "Northern King, what do you mean by this? Are you really considering taking action?"

Ye Feng turned his head and smiled, "Do you think that's impossible?"

"Absolutely not!" Dugu Ming hurriedly came over and urged, "If you were at your peak, I would be extremely grateful if you stepped forward. However, given your current condition, it's not that I don't trust you, but it's really... it's really..."

He couldn't bring himself to say any more, but what he meant was pretty obvious—it was as if you are practically a cripple now; if you go up, wouldn't you just be throwing your life away?

Sima Zhantian suddenly stepped forward, clasping his hands and saying, "My lord, allow me to fight and extinguish this bald Grand Lama!"

Ye Feng shook his head with a smile, "You're not up to it. To defeat him, you'd need at least another ten or eight years of training."

Sima Zhantian fell silent, though with his hot temper, he knew very well he couldn't defeat the opponent. Nevertheless, he still wanted to stand up and offer himself, because he could not allow his master to take any risks.

Xiao Chuanqi had also stood up, looking as though he was keen to join the fray.

Ye Feng waved his hand and sighed, "Enough, all of you, step back. Just keep your eyes wide open and watch. Qingyan, wheel me down!"

Hong Qingyan was momentarily stunned. Although she wanted to persuade him, she knew that once the man in the wheelchair made a decision, absolutely no one could change his mind.

Thereupon, Hong Qingyan slowly pushed the wheelchair down the aisle towards the training ground ahead.

On the training ground, several physicians from the Hundred Herbs Garden had already arrived to bandage the Great Protector's wounds.

The Quasi-Wheel Grand Zen Master stood under the starry sky, standing on the Southern Territory's ground, proclaiming loudly before the faces of over two thousand Southern Territory soldiers, "At first, I thought with Xuanyuan Nation's vast lands and abundant resources, some expert might emerge. Now, it seems, that's hardly the case!"

"No one in the Southern Territory of the Xuanyuan Nation can fight, what 'Ancient Xuanyuan Kingdom,' what origins of ancient martial arts, it's all worthless. Only our Brahma Kingdom is the true source of ancient martial arts!"

Faced with the arrogant humiliation from the Great Zen Master of the Brahma Kingdom, over two thousand soldiers on the training grounds were seething with rage and felt deeply insulted, yet not one of them dared to speak out.

Even the Four Great Protectors had been defeated, what could they say?

"Hey, what are you all waiting for? Why haven't you rushed to present the Old Southern King's sword? It's our Great Zen Master's spoil of war!" bellowed more than ten Lamas in Red Robes with extremely arrogant and insolent demeanors.

"Your Excellency really has quite the audacity, daring to disdain the entire Xuanyuan Nation. This place is merely the Base Camp of the Southern Territory. If this were anywhere else, you would've met your demise countless times over!"

Pushed by Hong Qingyan, Ye Feng slowly approached their direction. Even though he was seated, he showed a straight spine and radiated an intense aura.

"Hmm?" The Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master furrowed his eyebrows and swiftly turned his head to glare at Ye Feng. Initially, he assumed a mysterious and powerful master was revealing himself. However, when he saw the speaker was merely a legless cripple in a wheelchair, an expression of disdain instantly crossed his face.

"I thought we had someone significant here, but it turns out to be just a legless cripple. From the looks of it, the Southern Territory truly has nobody left if even you, a pitiful cripple, dare to jump out and spout bold words at me. Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

At that moment, the Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master burst out with a fierce killing intent. He might hesitate to casually kill one of the Four Great Protectors, but in his eyes, eliminating a mere legless cripple posed no problem whatsoever.

"How dare you be so insolent and disrespectful to the Northern King! You're courting death!" Sima Zhantian and Xiao Chuanqi were immediately enraged and charged forward, followed closely by Xia Lengchan, Li Jingang, and Zhuge Yu.

All five of them took their place behind Ye Feng, prepared to defend him to the death!

In their eyes, it was acceptable to humiliate others, but insulting their own master was absolutely intolerable!

Quasi-Wheel Grand Zen Master's gaze suddenly sharpened, and a look of surprise crossed his face as he blurted out, "You are the Northern King, Ye Feng of the Northern Border?"

Ye Feng looked at him coldly and sneered, "What else?"

The Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master's expression of surprise deepened. Although he had never met Ye Feng, the Northern Border King, his reputation had long been resounding like thunder throughout the Brahma Kingdom. He simply couldn't imagine that such a distinguished and majestic king would be wheelchair-bound and disabled?

"Are you truly the Northern Border King?" The Quasi-Wheel Grand Zen Master still found it hard to believe.

Ye Feng smiled and directly presented his Northern King's Order.

The Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master, of course, recognized the King's Order, and moreover, he guessed that no one would have the audacity to impersonate a king at such an event.

"I truly did not expect this. In my mind, the Northern King was an unparalleled and majestic leader. Yet, seeing you today, I must say it is quite a shock." After a moment of astonishment, the Quasi-Wheel Grand Zen Master laughed, his face once again twisting into a sneer of contempt.

The dozen or so Lamas in Red Robe burst into laughter: "So what if you're the Northern Border King? A man with broken legs, unable to walk, thinks he can still jump around? It's simply laughable! It seems that not just the Southern Territory, but the entire Xuanyuan Nation lacks true masters. Otherwise, they wouldn't let a cripple come to the forefront!"

Ye Feng's gaze hardened as he pointed at the Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master and said, "Control your subordinates. This is the Southern Territory, this is Xuanyuan Nation. Dare to insult me again, and it will be instant execution, believe it or not?"

As he spoke these words, an intense aura burst from him, catching the Quasi-Wheel Grand Zen Master off guard and startling him.

The more than two thousand elite soldiers outside the training ground became excited at this sight. "Damn it, that's the demeanor of a true king!" they thought. "So dominant, so authoritative—he deserves respect, or he'll execute you on the spot!"

After a moment's thought, the Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master abruptly waved his hand and addressed the Lamas, "Silence! Regardless of everything, he is still a king, and a king should not be insulted. We were the ones who offended you!"

With that, the Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master placed his right hand across his chest and bowed to Ye Feng, prompting the Lamas to hold their tongues.

However, after the bow, the Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master's tone changed sharply as he said coldly, "I'm not sure why the Northern King has decided to show up, but could it be that you intend to stand up for the Southern Territory?"

Ye Feng chuckled coldly, "The Southern Territory has over a million soldiers, and masters are plentiful. They are stationed throughout the land, not at the Base Camp, otherwise why would I need to step in? Furthermore, Great Zen Master, you keep saying that Xuanyuan Nation has no one, which is extremely arrogant.

As part of Xuanyuan Nation, and in particular the Northern Border, how could I just stand by and do nothing!"

The Grand Zen Master snorted and exclaimed, "The Northern King is welcome to intervene. In fact, I had planned to take care of the Southern Territory's business first and then go north to seek your guidance, Northern King. Now, it seems unnecessary to make an extra trip. However, one thing should be clear, the bout earlier was won by me, claiming the Old Southern King's sword as my spoils of victory.

Surely the Southern Territory isn't thinking of reneging on the deal?"

Ye Feng laughed heartily, "Every soldier in the Southern Territory is an honorable and trustworthy person. How could we renege? And why would we need to? I ask the Southern King to bring out the Old Southern King's sword!"

Dugu Ming was taken aback, then waved his hand and said, "Grand Commander Lan, fetch the Old Southern King's personal sword."

"Yes!" Grand Commander Lan bowed and was about to leave, but before he did, he gave Ye Feng several puzzled glances, wondering what act the Northern King was putting on.
