Urban Martial Saint

Hearing these words, White Impermanence and the little girl looked at each other. In the past, whenever anyone caused trouble in the tea house, the Ghost-faced Judge would definitely not be courteous. Yet this time, he actually let Shen Baichuan go—an unprecedented event. And now, he was saying such things. It seemed that the Ghost-faced Judge was also very wary of the Xihang Shen Family.

The Lady Boss walked over leisurely and said softly, "Young people don't understand things; don't be angry."

Seeing the Lady Boss, the Ghost-faced Judge calmed down somewhat. He went to sit at a table and said solemnly, "You called me before saying that a strange man came to the tea house. What exactly does he look like?"

White Impermanence hurriedly described the man's appearance and, after hearing White Impermanence's description, the Ghost-faced Judge's eyes clearly displayed a hint of surprise. He frowned deeply and said, "Did you see what was inside that box?"

White Impermanence shook his head and said, "No, he never opened the box!"

"Could it really be the Ink Pattern Black Gold Blade inside?" the Ghost-faced Judge muttered to himself, his brows furrowed tightly, and it was some time before he said, "Do you know where he may have gone?"

"I went out to track him, but after following him for less than two streets, I lost him!" the little girl replied in a low voice.

The Ghost-faced Judge nodded and asked, "Did he say anything?"

"He was mainly asking about the incident in March. It seemed like he was also investigating the information regarding the Bloody Monk," White Impermanence paused, then continued, "Right, he also said that Shen Family's young lady coming to Shenchuan City was a rare opportunity, and he wouldn't wait any longer!"

"What?" the Ghost-faced Judge suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with astonishment as he asked urgently, "Did he really say that?"

"Yes, those were his exact words!" White Impermanence nodded.

"How could he... how could he do such a thing?" the Ghost-faced Judge was extremely anxious and repeated, "If something happens to that Shen Family girl, where in the world would he be able to stand? This kid, why is he getting more and more impulsive?"

The Lady Boss, White Impermanence, and the little girl were all perplexed. They didn't know what relationship the Ghost-faced Judge had with that man and why the Ghost-faced Judge was so worried about him.

The Lady Boss comforted him, "Don't be too anxious. After all, he is in Shenchuan City. Besides that, since the Shen Family girl has come to Shenchuan City, there must be many people protecting her. Not to mention anything else, I think that Shen Qianyue we just saw is not simple. It definitely wouldn't be easy to do anything to that girl in their presence!"

"That's hard to tell!" the Ghost-faced Judge frowned deeply, and sat down lost in thought, no one knowing what he was contemplating.

After sitting silently for a long time, the Ghost-faced Judge suddenly looked up and asked urgently, "That Ye Qing, is his Southern Suburbs Dogfight Arena about to open?"

The Lady Boss nodded, "Yes, it is."

The Ghost-faced Judge slightly frowned and asked, "Did he invite Huangfu Ziyu?"

"He should have. I heard from friends in Dongzhou that Huangfu Ziyu seems to be attending the opening ceremony too," the Lady Boss paused, then added, "Ye Qing really does have quite the influence, able to invite Tie Yongwen and even Huangfu Ziyu. The opening of the Southern Suburbs Dogfight Arena will surely be quite an event!"

The Ghost-faced Judge paid no attention to her latter words, but slapped his thigh suddenly, saying urgently, "Oh no!"

"What's wrong?" the Lady Boss asked curiously.

"There's no time to explain now!" The Ghost-faced Judge frowned deeply and commanded, "Xiao Bai, find me an invitation right away. I must personally attend the opening ceremony of the Southern Suburbs Dogfight Arena."

"Master, you're going too?" White Impermanence asked in surprise, "I've seen this Ye Qing, and he's really not much of an expert. If I hadn't been careless last time, he probably wouldn't have been a match for me, he's not worth your personal effort!"

The Ghost-faced Judge glared at him and snapped, "Cut the chatter and quickly get me that invitation."

White Impermanence had never seen the Ghost-faced Judge this angry before, and, frightened, he hurried out without another word to take care of the matter.

"What are you doing?" the Lady Boss asked with a slight frown, "Why are you being angry with one of your own?"

"You don't understand!" The Ghost-faced Judge slowly shook his head, his eyes shimmering with a sharp glint as he spoke solemnly, "This matter is related to a major event ten years ago. If he causes another major incident, it could lead to a large-scale conflict again. By then, even if we have done nothing, we won't be able to stay out of it!"

"What exactly is it?" The Lady Boss was greatly surprised, staring at the Ghost-faced Judge and said, "You've never been this worried before, I... I'm a little concerned..."

Turning to look at the Lady Boss, the Ghost-faced Judge's eyes were filled with endless tenderness, and he slowly shook his head, "Don't worry, no matter what happens, I won't let you be harmed. And besides, it hasn't gotten that far yet. As long as I go there in person, I'm certain I can prevent this from happening."

The Lady Boss said, "What exactly happened? Why can't you tell me?"

The Ghost-faced Judge slowly shook his head and said, "The less you know about this matter, the better. Stop asking me, I won't tell you!"

The Lady Boss felt helpless, she knew the temperament of the Ghost-faced Judge. Although he was very kind to her, once he made up his mind, it would never change.

That evening, Ye Qing had also just become free and went with Lin Mengjie to check the various venues, a way to meet and greet the client managers there.

Lin Mengjie drove her sporty car with Ye Qing chatting and laughing along the way, but she didn't mention a word about last night's events.

Since she didn't bring it up, Ye Qing felt less embarrassed about it. After all, if Lin Mengjie really started talking about love or something, Ye Qing really wouldn't know how to respond.

After visiting several venues and originally planning to return to Tian Sheng, Ye Qing suddenly received a call from Da Fei, who reported trouble at one of the venues and urged Ye Qing to come and handle the situation.

Da Fei managed a bar and had a group of underlings under his command. When he came to Shenchuan City for work, he brought over a dozen men with him, and now his place had the most of his own people. Now, he was calling Ye Qing about someone causing a scene, which made Ye Qing rather surprised. Da Fei's dozen men were overwhelmed, indicating that the troublemakers weren't few. Considering the current situation in Shenchuan City, with neither Tianqing Gang nor Fu Bang making a move, who would dare to create trouble?

Without much hesitation, Ye Qing asked Black Bear to send Lin Mengjie back, but she flatly refused to go, insisting on accompanying Ye Qing to check out the situation. In the end, unable to dissuade her, Ye Qing had no choice but to bring her along. Of course, Ye Qing also asked Black Bear to primarily protect Lin Mengjie.

On the way, Ye Qing made a call to Yue Peng, whose venue was the closest to the site, to bring some men and help out.

When Ye Qing arrived at the entrance of the bar, Yue Peng had already rushed over with seven or eight people, all carrying weapons wrapped in jackets. Yue Peng, a fan of Hoodlum movies, especially liked to carry weapons this way, claiming it made him look like Zheng Yijian. The issue was that he looked more like Mountain Chicken.

"Big Brother!" Seeing Ye Qing arriving, Yue Peng immediately approached with his subordinates and asked, "What's the plan? Should we go hard on them later?"

"Don't rush, let's see what the situation is first," Ye Qing looked at Yue Peng and his men and said, "Put your stuff away. You're carrying weapons so obviously, it's too easy to spot and not discreet at all!"

Yue Peng quickly signaled his men to stuff their machetes and steel pipes into their pants, then covered up with jackets and followed Ye Qing into the bar.

As soon as they entered the bar, Da Fei came over, holding his nose, and nearly cried when he saw Ye Qing, saying, "Big Brother, help me take revenge!"

"Damn, Fei, you're being too pathetic. You got beaten to tears?" Yue Peng was surprised. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Seeing Da Fei able to come out, Ye Qing figured the situation couldn't be too serious. Otherwise, Da Fei would probably have been carried out.

"Ah, don't mention it. I lost face big time!" Da Fei's face was flushed with embarrassment as he said, "Damn it, ever since I was eleven years old and got a beating from my dad for peeping at Widow Wang bathing next door, I've never been humiliated like this!"

Yue Peng clearly didn't understand and asked oddly, "Where exactly did you get beaten?"

Da Fei pointed at his buttocks, seething, "Damn, that bastard, he's really inhuman. To think a man in his twenties or thirties is still spanking people like disciplining a son!"

Da Fei wore slacks, which clearly showed a footmark from being kicked, causing Yue Peng and others to snicker.

Ye Qing frowned slightly and asked, "How many people were on the other side? Why would they beat you like that?"

"It would've been okay if there were many of them, but the thing is... the thing is there was only one damn person, that's why I said I lost face big time!" Da Fei helplessly shook his head, saying, "Brother, this guy's tough. I think you're the only one who can deal with him!"

Ye Qing was more surprised in his heart. One person was able to beat so many of Da Fei's men, which meant this person wasn't simple at all and definitely a master. Masters wouldn't normally act rashly, so what was the purpose of causing trouble in his venue?

Following Da Fei to the outside of the private room, they saw a few terrified waiters standing at the door, while Da Fei's subordinates appeared frustrated and downcast. When they saw Ye Qing approaching, everyone came over with mournful faces, utterly aggrieved.

No wonder, anyone would feel aggrieved after being spanked like a child.

"Don't come in," Ye Qing told Yue Peng and the others to stay outside. He straightened his clothes and pushed open the door to the private room.

The private room was in utter disarray, with sunflower seed shells and broken glass scattered on the floor, suggesting an intense fight had taken place. The only intact piece was a sofa on one side, where a youth in his twenties was sitting, casually cracking seeds. His easygoing demeanor made it seem as if the earlier fight had never happened.
