Urban Martial Saint

Black Bear’s move was effective. He immediately lifted the marble table, ready to smash it a second time.

Scarred Yang’s subordinates scattered like ghosts, not daring to glance at Black Bear even once.

Actually, with so many of them, if they had attacked Black Bear together, the marble table would have been useless. However, the room was too cramped. Holding a marble table, Black Bear had an imposing presence, like a lone hero defending a pass against ten thousand enemies. Who would dare to pass by him, fearing that he might smash them flat with the table?

Seeing this, Scarred Yang also hurried out of the room, urgently saying, ”Do you know whose place The Tycoon is? I warn you, do not mess around, this is Li Lianshan of the West City’s place. If you dare smash his place, I…”

Scarred Yang hadn’t finished speaking when Black Bear, carrying the marble table, charged forward, frightening Scarred Yang into forgetting his words and running out.

Black Bear tried to chase after him with the marble table, but when he reached the doorway, the table was blocked by the door. Just as he was about to lay the table flat to carry it out, Ye Qing had already come out from behind and said, ”Xiong Zi, stand down!”

Black Bear turned his head in surprise and said, ”But they still have so many people!”

”Ignore them; our target is Young Master Wei!” Ye Qing said gravely. During the chaos earlier, Young Master Wei had already quietly run away, sparing his life for the night.

Obeyingly, Black Bear put down the marble table, and Old Wang Ba poked his head out from the restroom, looking around. Seeing that it was quiet outside, he finally felt safe to come out.

Huo Pingping was still inside the restroom, barely covering her body with her hands.

”Let’s go!” Old Wang Ba called out to Huo Pingping.

Huo Pingping looked embarrassed. Although usually bold and outgoing, she was quite conservative at heart. There was no way she could go out like this!

Ye Qing took off his coat and handed it over, saying, ”Put this on.”

Huo Pingping gratefully reached for it, but Old Wang Ba immediately intercepted her.

”Why are you taking off your clothes…” Old Wang Ba waved his hand and walked over to a few trembling girls, saying, ”Take off your clothes!”

”Huh?” The girls were stunned. Were they being robbed or what?

”Quit the chatter, take off your clothes!” Old Wang Ba raised the stick in his hand, and the girls hurriedly began stripping their clothes off.

Old Wang Ba picked up a few articles of clothing from the floor and handed them to Huo Pingping. Turning around, he saw one girl had completely stripped, exposing everything.

Old Wang Ba greedily glanced and then spat, saying, ”Damn, I’m robbing clothes, not violating you. Why strip down completely? What, you’re used to taking it off often?”

The girl silently looked at the other girls, her voice trembling, ”No, it’s just… they were wearing more than me…”

Old Wang Ba snapped his fingers, saying, ”Served you right, you showed too much, and now you’ve played it big!”

Meanwhile, Huo Pingping had put on the few girls’ clothes and washed her face, making things somewhat better.

After they left The Tycoon, Scarred Yang’s people followed from a distance, but did not dare to intercept them.

Ye Qing ignored these people. His only target was Young Master Wei. The others didn’t matter.

Back at home, Mu Qingrong, Rong Fang Tingyun, Mo Xiang, and Chen Keai anxiously awaited them. Seeing everyone return, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, seeing Huo Pingping’s situation, they couldn’t help but feel heartache again.

”The situation then was chaotic and complicated. Eighth Master here, on-site, held off the biggest boss with my own strength. What was it based on? Courage and superhuman wisdom.” Old Wang Ba was explaining the situation, though most of it was boasting about himself: ”Speaking of wisdom, to not mention others, do you know how Pingping got these clothes?

If it weren’t for Eighth Master here, Pingping might have had to come back naked tonight...”

”Get lost!” Huo Pingping glared at him fiercely. This guy was spouting nonsense, going a bit too far. If it hadn’t been for him pulling Huo Pingping into the restroom at a critical moment and getting her clothes, she would have kicked him out long ago.

Old Wang Ba looked embarrassed and hastily corrected himself, ”Well, of course, she wouldn’t come back naked. With so many men here, just a random piece of clothing from us would have sufficed for her to come back.”

Chen Keai, seeing Old Wang Ba in his greasy black clothes, couldn’t help but shudder.

Sitting nearby, Ye Qing had just walked in when Da Hei affectionately pounced on him, licking his hands and face.

Da Hei was a dog Ye Qing had raised when he first joined the army. From a small pup less than a foot long to its current size, it was closest to Ye Qing.

Black Bear said, ”Captain, after you were discharged, Da Hei wouldn’t eat and lost a lot of weight. Seeing no other way, I had to bring him out quietly. Don’t blame me, ah!”

Ye Qing’s eyes reddened, almost bursting into tears, as he gently stroked Da Hei’s head.

Seeing Ye Qing, Da Hei was extremely excited, running around him, utterly joyful.

With so many people around, the girls were all concerned about Huo Pingping’s situation, while Black Bear and Da Hei surrounded Ye Qing. Only Old Wang Ba was left out, unloved and unattended, his boasting unheard and quite pitiful in its way.

Still, the old guy was thick-skinned and just sat there for over an hour. Around eleven, he suddenly said, ”Alright, alright, it’s getting late. Let’s all rest early. We have work tomorrow, right? Let’s just discuss how we are going to sleep tonight!”

Damn, this old boy was planning to stay the night!

Black Bear picked up the luggage next to him and said, ”I can sleep on the floor in the captain’s room.”

”I can also sleep on the floor, but there’s no space left in Little Ye’s room, so you girls…” Old Wang Ba grinned mischievously at the few girls.

”Beat it!” the girls replied in unison, and Huo Pingping even grabbed a cushion and threw it over.

”I didn’t say I’d sleep in your rooms, would the living room not do just fine?” Old Wang Ba retorted with a sense of grievance.

Chen Keai, waving her little fist, said, ”Beat it, beat it, beat it. You’re not homeless, are you? Why the living room? Just go home!”

Old Wang Ba pointed to the wall clock and said, ”Look how late it is. The number seven bus is long gone.”

Huo Pingping: ”If the number seven is gone, there’s still eleven, isn’t there?”

Old Wang Ba said, ”What eleven? Eleven doesn’t go to my place!”

Huo Pingping: ”I was talking about your two legs.”

”Ah, that eleven!” Old Wang Ba suddenly realized, then waved his hands and said, ”No, no, no, I live far away. If I use these legs, I might reach home by breakfast tomorrow.”

Chen Keai: ”That’s perfect, you can just take a good rest all day tomorrow then.”

Old Wang Ba said morosely, ”Ah, they always say girls are kind-hearted. But looking at you guys, why does each of you seem more heartless than the last?”

Fang Tingyun said, ”It varies from person to person. Haven’t you seen how nice we are to Ye?”

Old Wang Ba glanced at Ye Qing, his face full of gloom, and said, ”He doesn’t have any more noses or eyes than me, why be nice to him and not to me!”

”That’s because you’re morally bankrupt. Keeping you here would put our safety at risk!” Huo Pingping cut to the chase.

”Tsk, tsk, tsk, fine, if you won’t let me stay, then just say so without the personal attacks!” Old Wang Ba stood up in indignation and said, ”If you don’t appreciate me here, there are plenty of other places that will. I hope you all have nightmares tonight!”

Ultimately, Old Wang Ba was kicked out by Huo Pingping, who also slammed the door shut. Da Hei even barked at him a couple of times, showing that even the dog didn’t like him much.

Old Wang Ba yelled through the door, ”Damn, believe it or not, one day I’ll cook you up!”

No one paid any attention to him, and Old Wang Ba left dejectedly.

Black Bear moved his luggage into Ye Qing’s room and swiftly set up a bed on the floor. Although the conditions weren’t great, having previously slept standing up on battlefields, a floor bed was nothing to him. Most importantly, being with Captain Ye Qing made him feel secure!

Da Hei was lying next to Ye Qing’s bed, falling asleep faster than Ye Qing and Black Bear. Soon after lying down, faint snores began to resound.

”Da Hei hasn’t had much rest these days, he’s really exhausted,” Black Bear whispered.

Ye Qing sighed softly, seeing his comrade was a good thing. However, this wasn’t the military, they still had to consider their survival.

”Xiong Zi, let’s look for a job tomorrow,” Ye Qing said.

”Sure,” Black Bear had no objections. As long as he could continue following his captain, he was willing to do anything.

The night passed without incident, and early the next morning, a shriek suddenly came from the bathroom courtesy of Chen Keai.

Most people had just woken up and hadn’t yet had the chance to wash up; hearing the scream, they immediately ran over.

”What’s the matter? What’s going on?” Fang Tingyun was the first to rush over, finding Chen Keai staring at the bathroom, her eyes wide as if she had seen something unbelievable.

Fang Tingyun walked over and took a peek inside the bathroom. She too was instantly dumbfounded.

Inside the bathroom, Da Hei had lifted one leg onto the toilet, expertly urinating into it.

Both women were stunned. They say dogs have a sense of human nature, but this dog was completely acting like a human. You’re a dog, not meant to avoid peeing just anywhere but using the toilet? How does that reflect on people who urinate wherever they please?

Black Bear shouted from the side, ”Stop looking, or it won’t be able to pee.”

Only then did the two women snap out of it, realizing that watching a dog pee wasn’t exactly honorable. They promptly turned their heads away.

”Woof, woof...” Da Hei barked twice from the bathroom, and the women, surprised, turned their heads back.

”You might as well close the bathroom door,” Black Bear said.

The women exchanged glances, and Fang Tingyun went to close the door.

”You can understand its barks?” Chen Keai asked Black Bear in astonishment.

”That’s roughly what it meant,” Black Bear said. ”Think about it, would you like it if the door was wide open while you were using the restroom?”

”Er...” Chen Keai was momentarily speechless. It was just a dog, but could it really be shy?

However, considering it could relieve itself properly in the bathroom, maybe they shouldn’t treat it like an ordinary dog anymore.
