Urban Martial Saint

After rescuing Mad Dog the last time, Ye Qing had left him his phone number, instructing him to call in seven days. Unexpectedly, it had only been two days when Mad Dog’s men came looking for him. Assessing the situation of these two men, had Mad Dog encountered danger?

Ye Qing considered Mad Dog to be a decent person, at least he was loyal and persistent, which were key reasons Ye had helped him. Wanting to run those venues in Shenchuan City, Ye knew he needed people to work for him, and he had intended for Mad Dog to be one of those people.

”What happened?” Ye Qing stood up and approached the two men.

Both men recognized Ye Qing and sighed in relief upon seeing him.

”Boss Ye, something... something terrible happened...” one man said urgently, ”The boss was kidnapped by people from Fu Bang!”

”What’s the situation?” Ye Qing frowned. Although he wanted Mad Dog to work for him, he wasn’t prepared to help anyone deal with troubles casually, especially not knowing who was right and who was wrong in the situation.

”Fu Bang, those bastards again!” Black Bear stood up angrily, his dislike for the Fu Bang people was nothing new.

Swallowing hard, the man said, ”Boss Ye, you have to save Brother Gou, he offended Fu Bang only because he was working for you!”

”Working for me?” Ye Qing was surprised. He had been up against the Lin family these past two days, what had Mad Dog done for him?

”Just tonight, Brother Gou heard you were in trouble, being wanted by the police. Fearing someone might kick you while you were down and smash your venues, he took a few of us and specifically came here to Tian Sheng to help guard your places,” the man explained as he wiped the blood from his forehead with his sleeve. ”Who knew, we actually encountered Fu Bang people trying to trash the places.

They didn’t come in great numbers, intending to set fire outside the venues, but Brother Gou spotted them, and we fought them off. But half an hour ago, another group from Fu Bang came and captured Brother Gou and most of our brothers. The two of us fled the chaos and, hearing that you had returned, we specifically came to ask for your help. Boss Ye, please save Brother Gou!”

Ye Qing’s face turned icy cold, the Fu Bang people really were ruthless, actually wanting to set fire to Tian Sheng. The residents inside were all children; if there were a fire, wouldn’t all the children be doomed? Thankfully, Mad Dog had stopped them; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Indeed, Mad Dog was a real man. Knowing that Ye Qing was being hunted by Shenchuan City’s police, driven to desperation by the Lin family, almost certainly facing a dead end. At that time, apart from a few people close to Ye, no one dared to help him, and even fewer wanted to be associated with him. Associating with Ye might mean attracting the wrath of the Lin family.

Back then, Ye in Shenchuan City was utterly isolated, with everyone eager to strike him while he was down.

In such circumstances, Mad Dog, a man from the very bottom ranks of Shenchuan City’s underworld, had actually brought his men to defend Ye’s turf. Knowing that just a flick of a finger could crush him, and yet he came to help Ye, unhesitatingly confronting the people from Fu Bang. Just for that, Ye already considered him a brother!

”Who captured Mad Dog!” Ye Qing asked sharply as he rose to his feet.

The man replied, ”Li Chengxing.”

Without a second word, Ye Qing called Zhao Chengshuang and asked him to locate Li Chengxing.

After He Ziqiang was blown up, Guan Haochen’s career was essentially over. He couldn’t bear the blame; returning to the provincial office, even with his father protecting him, he was definitely going to be dismissed and might even face legal consequences. Thus, people at the city bureau no longer took him seriously.

And with Zhao Chengshuang in possession of the evidence left by He Ziqiang, cracking a significant case, and the relentless support of the Lin family, Zhao Chengshuang’s influence in Shenchuan City’s police circles surged once again.

Upon receiving the message from Ye Qing, Zhao Chengshuang directly assigned the local precinct, which covered the Fu Bang’s territory, to look into the matter. In less than ten minutes, Li Chengxing was found.

Zhao Chengshuang shared the news with Ye Qing and casually inquired if he needed help.

Ye Qing declined without hesitation. If it were any other matter, he would have accepted Zhao Chengshuang’s help, as the police were obviously best suited for such tasks. But what Li Chengxing had done was over the line, wanting to burn down Tian Sheng, which meant he was planning to kill so many children.

For such a person, Ye wouldn’t let him off; without police present, Ye could make his move even more forcefully.

Zhao Chengshuang said, ”Going alone won’t do, they have too many people. Here’s what we’ll do: you get Old Li to send some people to help you. I’ll also deploy a squad nearby. If anything happens, one phone call, and I guarantee the police will be there within a minute, absolutely foolproof!”

Ye Qing did not refuse this time. He was well aware that taking on Fu Bang alone was impossible.

Everything arranged, Ye Qing called Li Lianshan and asked him to send people to help him.

If it had been before, Li Lianshan wouldn’t have dared to confront Fu Bang even if it killed him. But now, things were different. The misunderstanding with the Lin family was resolved, Ye’s future in Shenchuan City was boundless, and East State Poisonous Mantis was behind him—who would dare to defy him?

Moreover, with Zhao Chengshuang as the police’s rising star, fully committed to supporting Ye, Li Lianshan had no more fear of Fu Bang. Right away, he dispatched over thirty men in five vans to reinforce Ye Qing.

```

All of this was accomplished within twenty minutes. Mad Dog’s two henchmen followed Ye Qing to the entrance of Tian Sheng, staring wide-eyed at the thirty-odd men emerging from the five minivans. Everyone said Ye Qing was a lone wolf, but it seemed now that his appeal was anything but ordinary!

Following Ye Qing, Black Bear got into the vehicle, with the two men’s hearts still pounding. They suddenly felt that their future days were sure to be good because it was certain they would be following Ye Qing from now on!

At the same time, in Li Chengxing’s place, Mad Dog and his six men were pinned to the ground, their bodies covered in blood, with several people still attacking them continuously.

As soon as Li Chengxing learned that the Lin family intended to completely cut off Ye Qing, he immediately wanted to kick a man when he was down, planning to set fire to Tian Sheng and deal with Ye Qing once and for all. However, his plan was foiled when the thugs he sent were intercepted by Mad Dog’s gang en route.

Li Chengxing was furious, and he ordered his men to capture Mad Dog and his group to torment them properly.

A lackey walked in from the entrance and whispered, ”Eldest Brother, I heard that surname Ye has already returned to Shenchuan City!”

”What?” Li Chengxing’s brow furrowed as he said in a deep voice, ”He dares to come back? Is he not afraid of dying?”

The lackey whispered, ”I heard that his issues with the Lin family have been resolved, and the Shenchuan City police have revoked the warrant for his arrest.”

”What’s going on?” Li Chengxing was greatly annoyed and said, ”What the hell is the Lin family doing? If they want to eliminate him completely, they shouldn’t be polite. Revoking the arrest warrant, damn it, is this child’s play? One minute they want to capture him, the next they release him, and they call themselves the number one family in Shenchuan City?”

The lackey was awkwardly silent for a while before whispering, ”Eldest Brother, should we let these youngsters go? I heard they seem to be working for surname Ye.”

”So what?” Li Chengxing glared and said, ”Once in my hands, there’s no reason to let them back out. Damn it, what about Ye Qing? If he doesn’t provoke me, that’s best, but if he dares to come at me, I’ll chop him down along with them!”

The lackey lowered his head, silently muttering to himself, ”I wonder who was the one that got beaten up by Ye Qing last time!”

Li Chengxing turned to look at Mad Dog and his men, feeling quite frustrated. If the Lin family no longer targeted Ye Qing, then he dared not go against Ye Qing either. He wanted to release Mad Dog and his men, but the situation had already come to this point, and it couldn’t be resolved by simply letting them go.

Li Chengxing knitted his brows and instructed the lackey beside him in a stern voice, ”Take some men out, find all of that kid’s followers, bring them all to me, and don’t let a single one escape!”

”Yes!” The lackey immediately turned to leave but then suddenly turned back and said, ”Eldest Brother, if they go looking for Ye Qing, then we...”

”Nonsense, they don’t have such fast information. Besides, where would they find Ye Qing now!” Li Chengxing glared and said, ”You must catch them before they find Ye Qing. No matter what, Ye Qing must not find out about this!”

”Yes!” The lackey hurriedly turned to handle the matter.

Li Chengxing walked into the room with a furrowed brow, looking down at Mad Dog and his men, his face showing even more hatred.

”Mad Dog, I have some good news for you!” Li Chengxing approached Mad Dog and sneered, ”Your boss, that’s Ye Qing, he’s already back in Shenchuan City!”

Mad Dog suddenly raised his head, furrowing his brow and said in a deep voice, ”Impossible, Ye is being hunted in Shenchuan City, and Brother Ye is not a fool!”

”Of course, surname Ye is not a fool, he would certainly not return if the arrest warrant had not been revoked!” Li Chengxing paused for a moment and smiled, ”But now the arrest warrant has been lifted. The Lin family, they’ve already cleared up the misunderstanding with Ye Qing and aren’t going after him anymore!”

”Really?” Mad Dog’s expression brightened.

”Of course it’s true!” Li Chengxing watched Mad Dog and sneered, ”However, it’s a pity that you won’t be able to see it!”

Mad Dog’s expression changed, and he stared at Li Chengxing with tightly knitted brows, and said in a deep voice, ”You want to silence me by killing me? Are you afraid that Brother Ye will retaliate against you?”

”Just because my uncle doesn’t want me entangled with surname Ye, it doesn’t mean I’m afraid of him!” Li Chengxing sneered and said, ”However, you’re right about one thing, I do want to silence you by killing you. How about it, any regrets now?

You fought tooth and nail to do so much for Ye Qing, and now that he’s back, you would have certainly been recognized for your great contribution, receiving many rewards from him. Sadly, you won’t even have the chance to meet him, he won’t even know about these deeds, let alone be grateful to you. Talking about loyalty? Is this the result of your loyalty?

The things you’ve done, others don’t even know about—any regrets?”
