Urban Martial Saint

”Little sister, you’re thinking too simply,” Chen San chuckled, shaking his head, saying, ”At the hotel, Ye Qing is there, and we are there too. It’s not hard for Wang Tian’an to kill Ye Qing. However, to kill Ye Qing right under our watch, that’s simply impossible. Therefore, his real killing move isn’t arranged at the hotel, but rather after we separate from Ye Qing. Ye Qing must have thought of this, so he made such arrangements.”

Chen San pointed at the map and said, ”Look at this path on the map, the only place to ambush Ye Qing is between these two cliffs. Just blocking both ends of the road, Ye Qing would be trapped inside, and there would be no escape for him at all. However, Xu Cunxiao never expected Ye Qing had already stationed people on both sides of the cliff, pulling them up with ropes and pouring gasoline to burn nearly twenty of Wang Tian’an’s subordinates to death. Ye Qing’s intellect is really remarkable, Xu Cunxiao is no match for him!”

After reviewing the map, Chen Si remarked, ”But, Xu Cunxiao is really negligent in his actions. Since that’s the only place on the road where Ye Qing could be ambushed, why didn’t he thoroughly check the terrain on both sides beforehand? In particular, the top of that cliff, if he planned to ambush Ye Qing there, he should have at least sent a few people to scout the mountaintop first. That way, he wouldn’t have lost so many men!”

”Little sister, you are thinking about this too simply!” Chen San shook his head and said, ”Xu Cunxiao will make his move against Ye Qing tonight and must avoid our detection. So, they must disperse and leave one by one, in order to avoid our notice. Therefore, by the time their people are assembled, there just isn’t enough time. They’re rushed to ambush Ye Qing and didn’t have time to check what was at the top of the cliff. Moreover, look at these cliffs; if you want to climb up, it would take a detour of at least five kilometers to reach the top. They simply don’t have the time for that.”

Chen Si suddenly realized and said, ”So, if Xu Cunxiao must ambush Ye Qing at this spot, then he’s bound to suffer a heavy loss!”

”Exactly!” Chen San laughed, ”If Xu Cunxiao wants to ambush Ye Qing, this spot is his only option, and no other place could stop Ye Qing. If he chooses to ambush here, then he is bound to suffer a heavy loss. Xu Cunxiao is quite fortunate to have escaped with his life. But that’s good, this household slave killed so many of our family members, one day I will personally kill him to avenge our innocent spirits!”

Chen Si also clenched her fists, feeling the same way. Towards Wang Tian’an and Xu Cunxiao, these former household slaves, they couldn’t wait to kill them personally.

”It seems we need to reassess Ye Qing’s worth!” Chen San walked over to the table, sat down, and gently tapped the tabletop with his fingers in rotation, his eyes flickering with various expressions. Ye Qing’s recent actions had gradually shifted his view from scorn to taking him seriously, and now to surprise and even respect—it had not been an easy transition.

But being respected by Ludong White Horse Chen San is definitely not a simple matter!

Chen Si looked at Chen San and softly said, ”Brother, perhaps, we should leave the entire Eastern Province to Ye Qing. Firstly, Huangfu Ziyu intends to hand over everything in the Eastern Province to him, and if he takes over, it’s obviously easier. Moreover, this would also be doing a favor for the Northern Li Family and Xihang Shen Family. After all, he is the direct disciple of the Northern Fist King Li Changqing and a disciple of the Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun. With his status, he’s fully capable of controlling the entire Eastern Province!”

Chen San didn’t speak, just gently tapped the table, his thoughts unknown. After a while, he finally raised his head and said to Chen Si, ”Little sister, I will think about this. However, neither you nor I can decide on this matter; only Master and our foster father can make this decision. Whether he can control the Eastern Province depends on Ye Qing’s own ability, whether he can make Master and our foster father take him seriously. You know, over the years, there haven’t been many people whom Master has taken a serious look at!”

Chen Si couldn’t help but fall silent; Meng District General Helian Tiehua, like the Northeastern Tiger watching the world. In the past twenty years, with the Northern Fist King deceased and the Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun missing, Prince Nalan of the Capital aged, and the Western Xinjiang Purple-Robed Lama not stepping half a step out of the Western Frontier, virtually no one could rival him. Over these twenty years, the name of Meng District General Helian Tiehua has been known and feared by all. There really aren’t many people in this world who have caught his eye. Even if Ye Qing is tactical as a god, what counts in front of the world-conquering Great General Helian Tiehua?

”Alright, little sister, don’t worry about these matters,” Chen San smiled, ”Even if we don’t get the Eastern Province, just having Shenchuan City is enough for him to develop. Besides, I don’t think Ye Qing has much ambition. I can’t promise the Eastern Province, but handing over Shenchuan City to him, that I can decide. Don’t think too much, go down and rest. Oh, and call Aomuhan over, I have something to discuss with him!”

”Okay.” Chen Si responded, turned around, and left to find Aomuhan.

At this time, Aomuhan was preparing to sleep, but upon receiving Chen Si’s message, he immediately rushed to Chen San’s room.

Chen San stood with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at a withered tree outside the window that didn’t have a single green leaf. It was the cold winter, and although it was in the South, the leaves had almost all fallen.

”Third Brother,” Aomuhan greeted, then directly walked over and sat down on the sofa. He had almost grown up following Chen San, so he wasn’t reserved in front of him.

Chen San didn’t speak, just turned his head and stared quietly at Aomuhan, his eyes unexpectedly had a hint of chill.

Aomuhan had never seen Chen San like this before; he couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous and said, ”Third Brother, what happened?”

Chen San walked to the table and sat down face to face with Aomuhan, speaking softly, ”I just received news that Ye Qing was ambushed by Xu Cunxiao and his people!”

Upon hearing this, a flicker of joy passed through Aomuhan’s eyes. Although he deeply hid it, he could not escape Chen San’s notice.

Seeing Aomuhan like this, Chen San couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. He knew Aomuhan’s personality all too well and of course, he knew what Aomuhan had done.

”Oh, really?” Aomuhan continued to feign ignorance, saying, ”How is Ye Qing? Is he alright?”

”He’s fine,” Chen San calmly replied.

A flicker of disappointment passed through Aomuhan’s eyes, but he still maintained a cheerful expression, saying, ”That’s good, that’s good. After all, he’s our ally; it’s good that he’s fine!”

Chen San looked at Aomuhan and said, ”Muh Han, you must have known about this before me, right?”

Aomuhan’s heart skipped a beat, but his face appeared puzzled as he replied, ”What… knew before you? Third Brother, what are you talking about? I don’t understand!”

”Muh Han, your adoptive father sent you to Shenchuan City to help me deal with Wang Tian’an, and also to give you some training,” Chen San said sternly. ”But you should really reflect on how much help you’ve actually been. Are you really unaware of Xu Cunxiao and his people leaving quietly? Muh Han, I want you to understand that Ye Qing is now our ally; he is joining us to fight Wang Tian’an. If you still want to harm him at this time, then you are helping Wang Tian’an.”

At this point, Chen San suddenly slapped the table and said in a deep voice, ”My Chen family, over two hundred people, whether elderly or nursing infants, were all killed by Wang Tian’an. This blood feud is irreconcilable. Anyone who helps Wang Tian’an is my enemy, Chen San!”

Chen San’s sudden outburst alarmed Aomuhan, causing him to shudder. Although he was the biological son of Ao Wuchang from Shu, he was very aware of his Third Brother’s temper. Angering Chen San, not only would Chen San deal with him, but Ao Wuchang would also seriously discipline him.

”Third Brother, I… I know I was wrong…” Aomuhan said with a downcast face, ”I… I actually received the news earlier, but… I just felt that Ye Qing wasn’t worthy to cooperate with us, so I wanted to harm him. Third Brother, I wasn’t trying to help Wang Tian’an; we are brothers, don’t you understand me?”

Chen San looked at him coldly and said in a stern voice, ”It’s because I understand you that I haven’t killed you. But remember, from today onwards, you are not allowed to interfere in any matters concerning Wang Tian’an. If you think the Southern Six Provinces are boring, I can send you back to your adoptive father in Shu immediately!”

”No, I… If I return so soon, Dad will definitely think I’ve angered you and he will surely confine me for a year and a half. Third Brother, have you forgotten how nearly mad I went last time, Dad almost locked me up. Sending me back would be a death sentence for me,” Aomuhan hurriedly waved his hands, saying, ”Third Brother, I’ll stay here. I definitely won’t do such a thing again.”

Chen San glanced at him, still feeling somewhat angry in his heart. Aomuhan had kept this matter from him, and although Ye Qing was not in any danger, it still upset him. After all, he was now allied with Ye Qing, and he couldn’t warn Ye Qing in advance. If Ye Qing were to find out, it would definitely damage their alliance, something Chen San did not wish to see. Thus, was the reason Chen San was so furious with Aomuhan!

Aomuhan knew well how Chen San’s temper was; if Chen San didn’t get angry, all was fine, but once he was angry, even he himself feared him. Moreover, Ao Wuchang completely trusted Chen San. Even if Chen San broke his legs here and sent him back to Shu, Ao Wuchang would only beat him again, never thinking Chen San was too harsh. Hence, once Chen San got angry, Aomuhan would instantly wilt. It was precisely because of this reason that Ao Wuchang felt reassured letting Chen San take charge of Aomuhan. Among the younger generation, only Chen San could really handle Aomuhan!
