Mowenjie nodded to Qian Xiaoyong, "Elder brother, I'll be going back. Please inform me when Ye Chengzhu arrives!"
Qian Xiaoyong shook his head and said, "Brother Mowenjie, you do as you please. Ye Chengzhu's strength is no more than mine. I'm not afraid of him now. In the past, our Yunduocheng was too weak and had to act like a servant to everyone. We feared trouble if they were unhappy. But now that we have your super-Breaking-Boundary pill, Yunduocheng has become stronger than before. Even if Ye Chengzhu comes, he wouldn't be a match for our Lord. I can defeat him, so there's no need for you to worry about it!"
Mowenjie shook his head at Qian Xiaoyong, "Brother, make your own decision. If you want to notify me, just say so. If not, handle it yourselves. Farewell, Brother!"
Mowenjie left the military camp and was about to head home when suddenly a group of people approached. They didn't look like they belonged to Yunduocheng, and the grand array suggested that the people were no ordinary individuals. He didn't give it much thought and hid on the side, waiting for them to pass before going home. It was truly a case of 'coincidence makes a book.' While he was thinking of edging past, a guard enforcing order accidentally bumped into him!
The guard didn't turn around and slapped him hard, muttering curses. "You blind dog thing! Who do you think you are, hitting an official like me? Today, I'll make you pay for it!" The guard was asking his companions what to do since someone from Yunduocheng had bumped into him.
The other guard, upon hearing this, looked at Mowenjie with a smile and nodded. "This man has courage. He is a heroic figure in Yunduocheng, and we should learn from him. Disrespecting us from Xingluo City should be punished. Since we have just arrived in Yunduocheng and been looked down upon by others, I think we should teach him a lesson so he knows that people from Xingluo City are not to be provoked!"
The guard who was bumped into looked at the other guard and said, "You know, brother, should we notify the head guard and have him come out to handle this?"
The guard opposite shook his head and looked at Mowenjie. "Zhang, why are you so timid? We are people from Xingluo City. When we come to Yunduocheng, we are the masters here. If they don't listen, just deal with them. If there is a problem, our head guard will take care of it for us!"
Old Zhang looked at Mowenjie and said, "Boy, have you heard what Old Huang said? You shouldn't have bumped into me today. I've been in a bad mood for the past few days, and it's your own fault that you hit me. You'll just have to blame yourself for being unlucky. After I finish dealing with you, get out of here as far as possible and don't embarrass yourself here!" He then lifted his hand to slap Mowenjie's face!
Mowenjie saw this and was seething with anger. Both of them had collided, so why should it be his fault alone? Were they not being unreasonable? Besides, this was Yunduocheng; why were they so audacious as to act like this? Were they not afraid of our city lord at all?
Old Huang laughed loudly upon hearing this. "You seem to be too naive, boy. You haven't yet understood the situation. We are people from Xingluo City, and when we come to Yunduocheng, we are naturally superior to you. Why do we need a reason to beat you? You really have no sense of death! After today, you should learn your lesson! In the future, if you encounter people from Xingluo City, run as far away as possible or else face getting beaten every time. If you don't mind being beaten up, feel free!"
Mowenjie looked at the guards with the surname Huang and said, "You dare to be so arrogant? Are people from Xingluo City that great? Don't think we Yunduocheng people are easy to bully. I want you to know that no one in Yunduocheng can be bullied at will. Mowenjie finished speaking, raised his hand and slapped Old Huang, sending him spinning three times on the spot! He fell to his knees in front of Mowenjie."
Everyone present was shocked by the scene before them. What is happening here? Who is this person? How dare he hit a guard from Xingluo City? What if the city lord of Xingluo City gets angry and blames us? We Yunduocheng people would suffer for that! Who is this young man, and why is he so impulsive?
Old Huang was lying on the ground, still shouting. "You little punk, you're finished! I'm going to tear your tendons and skin you alive, making your life a living hell! How dare you, a Yunduocheng person, hit me? You really don't know the power of our Xingluo City! Zhang, notify the head guard. Let him be skinned alive and displayed for all Yunduocheng people to see what happens when they anger our Xingluo City!"
Old Zhang looked at Mowenjie and shook his head. "Don't worry, I've already notified the head guard. He should be here soon. You can rest assured that today's matter won't be resolved so easily. Our city lord will definitely make a statement on behalf of Yunduocheng! Gifting land and paying compensation are minor matters, but the most crucial thing is to execute this brat publicly. This will serve as a warning to others; from now on, anyone from Yunduocheng who encounters us Xingluo City people must retreat!"
Old Huang laughed loudly upon hearing this. "I'm also going to extort them properly this time. One slap can't be forgiven; I must get compensation from Yunduocheng, or this won't be settled!"
Mowenjie looked at the two of them and said, "You two must have grown used to extorting people, right? If you enjoy it so much when others give you compensation, I will beat both of you until you can't take care of yourselves, then I will compensate you. You'll spend the rest of your lives in bed! After speaking, Mowenjie lifted his hand and slapped Old Zhang!"
Old Zhang, seeing the situation, panicked and ran away as fast as he could, completely disregarding Old Huang's welfare!
Mowenjie shook his head at the sight of Old Zhang running away, "I thought you people from Xingluo City were so powerful, but it turns out you're just cowards! I thought your people from Xingluo City were so brave, but it's just like that!"
A voice suddenly echoed, "Who dares to insult the people of Xingluo City? I think you're a centenarian eating arsenic, thinking your life is too long?"
The lying Old Huang looked up as the figure approached and immediately regained his spirit. "Captain Ji, you've finally come. This little punk not only beat me but also insulted our people of Xingluo City. He deserves to be punished severely. Please, Captain Ji, please punish him and avenge my humiliation!"
Captain Ji glanced at the lying Old Huang, then looked at Mowenjie. "Who are you? Don't you know that we people from Xingluo City are not to be trifled with? When our people from Yunduocheng come to your city, you must show respect and avoid confrontation. Yet, you dare to attack them? You must have gone crazy! I will never let you off so easily. If I do, others in Yunduocheng might follow suit, and that would be a disaster!"
Mowenjie looked at the guard captain with the surname Ji, "You're their head guard, right? They've been so arrogant and domineering because of you, I suppose. You let them bully people like this. You're not a good guard captain yourself. I won't let you off either. I'll show you what respect looks like!" After speaking, he raised his hand and slapped him, but to everyone's surprise, Captain Ji also spun around three times on the spot before collapsing to the ground!
Captain Ji looked at Mo Wenjie, who was trembling all over. He didn't know whether it was from anger or fear. Despite being on the ground, his mouth was still quite sharp. "You're finished, kid. If you dare hit me, you'll have to face the consequences from Lord Ye. You're just an ordinary person from Yunduocheng, yet you dared to hit me, a guard from Xingluo City. Even if Zhang Tianshi came today, he wouldn't be able to save you. You'll just have to wait for your whole family to be exterminated! I'm going to see who dares to protect you!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out, "I'll protect him. I wonder if I can save him?"
Upon hearing the voice, Captain Ji looked in the direction it had come from. "It's the city commander of Yunduocheng, isn't it? How could he possibly stand up for this young man? Ah, even if you do stand up for him, what good will it do? Even if our city lord intervenes, there's no guarantee. Commander, you're just going to make a fool of yourself here; why don't you save face and leave?"
Qian Xiaoyong looked at Mo Wenjie and then at Captain Ji, "I don't know what qualifications you have to say I can't protect him. But I'm going to do just that. Not even if Yue Tianshi comes, can you stop me from protecting him. If you don't believe me, let your city lord come here instead!"
Captain Ji looked at Qian Xiaoyong, "Mr. Qian, you haven't woken up from your sleep, have you? You dare to interfere in the affairs of Xingluo City? I really don't know where your courage comes from, but it's quite disappointing to tell you that even if you try to protect him, you can't. I still stand by what I said earlier; even if our city lord steps in, it might not be enough to save him!"
Qian Xiaoyong looked at Captain Ji, "You really think Yunduocheng is still the same as before? Or that we are still the Yunduocheng that can be bullied by you all? Let me tell you, Yunduocheng is no longer the same. It's impossible for your people from Xingluo City to bully us anymore. You, as a captain, aren't much either. You were knocked over in three spins by my brother with a single slap and dared to talk big here? You really don't know what a disgrace it is!"
Captain Ji looked at Mo Wenjie and said, "Since you claim to be his brother, you should have dealt with the matter properly. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation, both of you will have to prepare for the ultimate punishment of beheading!"
Mo Wenjie looked at Captain Ji, "Can you stop boasting and show me what you've got? I'm ready to face you, but instead, you're just showing off with your mouth. Don't you feel ashamed of bringing shame to Xingluo City? Or do the people from Xingluo City not have any dignity?"
Captain Ji looked at Mo Wenjie and said, "Young man, you're really too reckless!"
Mo Wenjie, not bothering to talk, raised his hand and started slapping. It was unclear how many times he had slapped, but it was clear that it looked like a pig's head!
This angered Captain Ji to the extreme. "You little punk, wait for me! Lord Ye will be here soon!"
As soon as Captain Ji finished speaking,
A voice echoed from behind, "Who dare to beat my head guard into such a condition? I will not let you leave alive unless you give me an explanation!"
