Urban All-Round Master

”What the hell!” Lin Zifeng was pissed. This woman really wouldn’t stop until one of them was dead, huh? Did she have to kill him no matter what?

Thinking of this, Lin Zifeng clenched his teeth, shot up into the air, and casually swung his big hand. An invisible force suddenly formed midair as his Space Gravity Ability activated. Instantly, an unseen power in the air locked down the woman who was just about to burst out of the water!

”What?!” The stunning beauty turned pale with shock. She never imagined that the moment she broke the surface she’d be bound by some invisible force. She was a Sub-Saint First Layer Heaven Cultivator, for crap’s sake!

The number-one proud daughter of her Family, a top-tier powerhouse even in the Lianyun Empire. This sudden twist scared her. Could someone have broken into the Marquis Mansion to kill her?

”Damn it!” Lin Zifeng cursed silently. This woman really was relentless. Thankfully, after he locked her down she still hadn’t gotten a clear look at his real face. Taking advantage of that, Lin Zifeng let his gaze sweep her delicate body from head to toe.

Holy shit, the scene was way too gorgeous, practically blinding his titanium alloy dog eyes...

”Who are you! Why did you break into my Marquis Mansion?!”

The stunning beauty suddenly shouted in a sweet voice. Even though she was restrained and panicking inside, she still wanted answers. Why would anyone force their way into the Marquis Mansion? Even if she was really going to die, she wanted to die knowing why. Getting killed so muddle-headedly would be way too pathetic.

”The hell! ’Break into’ my ass.” Lin Zifeng ignored her. How was this breaking in? He obviously walked in swaggering like he owned the place.

He didn’t bother with her and instead prepared to grab his clothes and bail. But Space Gravity had a distance limit—right now he could control her within a bit over a hundred meters, and beyond that it’d be hard to keep her bound. So the moment he turned around, that stunning beauty let out a sharp shout behind him and lunged at Lin Zifeng, attacking viciously and ferociously, her speed fast as Shan Dian.

She dove straight in to kill, her moves brutally fierce.

Feeling the howling wind and terrifying Killing Aura rushing up from behind, Lin Zifeng immediately plunged down to the bottom of the hot spring, refusing to let her see his face. The woman, though, was totally nuts—she actually followed Lin Zifeng down under the water, completely forgetting that she was buck-naked right now.

”Seriously?! Is this woman actually insane?” Lin Zifeng panicked. But underwater her swimming speed was even faster than his. Just as she closed in, Lin Zifeng suddenly turned and slammed out a water dragon roaring toward her, then prepared to leap out of the water.

However, the water dragon couldn’t stop her momentum. She pounced forward and wrapped both arms tightly around Lin Zifeng’s thighs.

”I—”

Feeling two soft, plush lumps pressing between his thighs, Lin Zifeng almost couldn’t hold back a blissed-out roar.

With no other choice, Lin Zifeng kicked back hard, his foot viciously booting the stunning beauty away. Wrapped in a layer of misty water vapor, he shot toward the shore, snatched up his clothes, and bolted from this land of trouble.

By the time the woman got up onto the shore, she found that Lin Zifeng had already vanished without a trace...

The stunning beauty’s eyes glinted with a cold, eerie light as she stared at the spot where he’d disappeared, her expression completely drained of color. She stood there on the bank, naked and graceful, yet didn’t put on her clothes for a long time...

As for Lin Zifeng, fleeing the scene, he didn’t dare stop. He ran straight toward his own room. Fortunately, his escape route from the hot spring pool hadn’t been noticed by anyone. Otherwise he’d really be screwed—if people found out the state he’d been in and word reached that stunning beauty’s ears, she’d probably want to kill him for sure.

Once inside his room, he didn’t dare slack off. He calmed himself and silently focused on Cultivation. Right now, the most important thing was figuring out how to break out of this Plane and successfully return to his Mortal World.

But he hadn’t been in meditation for more than a short while of Kung Fu when noisy shouting and commotion suddenly erupted outside the Marquis Mansion.

From the sound of it, whoever was out there was really pissed.

Thump!

Lin Zifeng’s heart suddenly lurched. Could it be that the stunning beauty from the hot spring had discovered him and was now coming for him?

Thinking about the terrifying consequences, Lin Zifeng really didn’t dare imagine any further.

As the ruckus outside grew louder and louder, Lin Zifeng instead made up his mind. Even if they had found him, there was no point hiding. He’d just face it head-on...

Meanwhile, in one of the reception halls of the Marquis Mansion, the National Guardian Martial God Dongfang Haoxuan stood in the middle of the hall with his hands clasped behind his back.

Facing the stern questioning of the middle-aged, imposing man standing before him, the National Guardian Martial God’s lips curled slightly into a cold smile.

”Dongfang Haoxuan, today no matter what, you have to give me an explanation. A lowly servant of your Marquis Mansion actually dared injure my son in public. Tell me, where am I supposed to put my face as Prime Minister?”

The speaker, the middle-aged, imposing man in luxurious brocade robes, was Situ Xuan’s father—the current Prime Minister of the Empire, Situ Xuanwen!

Just these last two days, his son had gone out to have some fun, only to be viciously beaten in front of a crowd by some dog servant of the Dongfang Marquis Mansion. No matter what, he had to settle this debt. His son got bullied outside; as the father, how could he not step up and demand justice?

Dongfang Haoxuan, on the other hand, looked utterly calm. He turned and asked his daughter Dongfang Xiaohuang dotingly, ”Xiaohuang, is this really what happened?”

That question made Dongfang Xiaohuang’s delicate body tremble slightly. It really had happened exactly like that, except... Lin Zifeng beating the crap out of Situ Xuan had been beyond her expectations. She’d thought it was just a misunderstanding, but Lin Zifeng had gone straight to throwing punches, publicly thrashing Situ Xuan right there in front of everyone.

She’d long ago realized that the Situ Family definitely wouldn’t let it go, so she’d already told her father the whole story in advance. Even after the National Guardian Martial God Dongfang Haoxuan heard everything, he didn’t blame his daughter or Lin Zifeng at all. And now here he was, playing the cat crying over the mouse, pretending to be concerned as he questioned Dongfang Xiaohuang.

It was obvious the father and daughter were putting on a show.

”Ah! No, not like that. It was clearly Situ Xuan who threw the first punch, that’s why the conflict between them even started.” Dongfang Xiaohuang parted her cherry lips with a soft exclamation, then giggled, ”Situ Xuan couldn’t beat him, so he just got smacked around by Lin Zifeng, that’s all.”

”Dongfang Haoxuan! I’m not asking for anything extravagant. I only hope you’ll hand over the true culprit who injured my son. Then we can write off this ledger between our two houses. I don’t think you’d risk our families’ relationship for the sake of one lowly servant, would you?”

Situ Xuanwen narrowed his eyes, speaking in a cold, sinister tone.

”Heh heh, Brother Situ, this was nothing more than kids playing house, a little sparring session. Injuries are inevitable. No need to get this worked up, is there?”

Dongfang Haoxuan stroked his beard and chuckled.

”Sparring? Since when does ’sparring’ involve pulling my pants down?” Situ Xuan, standing to the side, almost spat blood along with his father when he heard that. In this World, what kind of ’sparring’ includes yanking down someone’s pants and publicly humiliating them?

”Oh? Nephew Situ, when your skills aren’t up to par, you really shouldn’t phrase it so harshly.” Dongfang Haoxuan narrowed his eyes and shot Situ Xuan a look, making Situ Xuan shudder from head to toe. The National Guardian Martial God wasn’t just high-ranking and powerful—his temper was legendarily explosive.

Back in the day, he’d killed a man in court right in front of all the civil and military officials, and even the Emperor had no way to touch him. That alone showed just how savage Dongfang Haoxuan really was.
