~7 min read 1,327 words

Huo Dongting and Huo Dongchen, one on the left and one on the right, supported Huo Lao and slowly walked to the doorway.

"Huo Junshan! How dare you block me?"

Jiangnan Wang saw Huo Lao appear, and the suppressed Anger instantly erupted.

He pointed at Jiang Feng, his voice altered due to Anger.

"I must capture this treasonous rebel who dares to defy me today! He disabled my men, which is a slap in my face! If you block me, you are going against the entire Imperial Family!"

The Imperial Clan's imposing pressure spread again, and the air at the doorway seemed to be solidified by this aura.

The Royal Guard felt the master's Anger, each stepping half a pace forward, hands on their sword hilts, eyes sharply fixed on Jiang Feng.

They waited for Jiangnan Wang's single command, then would rush forward to subdue the person.

Huo Lao only coughed lightly twice, his Tone calm.

"Prince, Jiang Feng is the benefactor who saved my life. Today, on Huo Family's territory, even if I stake this old life, I cannot let the benefactor suffer grievance."

At this moment, he was already Standing beside Jiang Feng, showing his stance through action.

He looked at Jiangnan Wang's resentful eyes and said word for word: "This is not about going against the Imperial Family; it is Huo Junshan's duty as a person."

"Old dog, I think you're looking for death!"

Jiangnan Wang gritted his teeth, wishing he could now issue an order to annihilate the Huo Family.

But he knew he could not do so.

Not to mention he was merely a idle clan member; compared to the power-wielding Huo Junshan, he could not defeat the opponent at all.

Moreover, if this matter were exposed to the heavens, he would have no justification.

And Huo Lao clearly saw this, pointing at Wu Chengliang, who was still wailing.

"Moreover, at its core this matter is that you tolerated your subordinates harming others first; legally, you have no justification, even before the Emperor, I, the old man, am not afraid."

"You... you are twisting arguments!"

Jiangnan Wang was choked by Huo Lao's words, unable to speak, the blue veins on his face pulsing.

"He disabled my men! Even if Wu Chengliang is at fault, it should be I who handles it, not some outsider! This matter today is not over!"

As he spoke, he was about to issue another order for the Royal Guard to act.

Huo Lao's gaze darkened, and at this moment he also coldly shouted.

"Provincial Government troops!"

"Present!"

Deng Guangxu immediately raised his hand, and the Provincial Government troops behind him instantly gripped their rifles.

The black muzzles of the guns brushed together, aiming at the Royal Guard.

The atmosphere instantly tightened to the extreme, as if a conflict would erupt the next second.

Jiangnan Wang was completely cornered there; even though he cursed countless times 'old dog' in his mind, now he didn't know what to do.

He was certain that, given Huo Junshan's temperament, he would truly dare to fight me to the death!

For Jiang Feng, this old dog can truly risk his life!

Dammit!

"Huo Lao, no need to trouble yourself."

At that moment, Jiang Feng stepped out from behind Deng Guangxu.

He wore a faint smile, waved at Huo Lao, his Tone utterly composed.

"Rest assured, even if I stand here, these Royal Guard cannot do anything to me."

"Mr. Jiang! Do not be careless!"

Deng Guangxu's expression changed slightly at the words, and he quickly stepped forward, grabbed Jiang Feng's arm, his Tone urgent.

"These Royal Guard are the Royal Mansion Elite; Inside are over a dozen high-grade warriors, together numbering over a hundred, even a Grandmaster must avoid their brilliance!"

He had already glimpsed Jiang Feng's strength.

But he now understood the Royal Guard's strength even better.

These men were death soldiers cultivated by Jiangnan Wang with heavy funds.

They were not only skillful, but also unafraid of death.

If a real clash occurred, even the Provincial Government troops, despite having guns, would pay a hefty price.

So even though Jiang Feng's strength had reached Grandmaster level, he did not want Jiang Feng to take risks.

After all, this matter originated because of him.

Jiang Feng gave a slight smile, indicating he should relax.

He lifted his gaze toward those glaring Royal Guard, his eyes calm and unruffled.

General Deng, Huo Lao, rest assured I know the situation.

"Moreover, this matter must have a resolution; you cannot hide forever. Moreover, since I dared to act and disable Wu Chengliang, I am confident I can protect myself."

Huo Lao looked at the determination in Jiang Feng's eyes, then at his composed demeanor, and remained silent for a few seconds.

Although it was his first meeting with Jiang Feng, he was clear that Jiang Feng was not one to speak grandly.

Since he dared to say that, he must have confidence.

The crucial point is, if the Provincial Government troops and the Royal Guard clash, the matter will explode completely.

Then, as the vortex's center, Jiang Feng would inevitably be affected.

He let out a slow sigh, then waved his hand.

"Provincial Government troops, withdraw."

"But Huo Lao..."

Deng Guangxu still wanted to persuade.

Step back.

Huo Lao's Tone left no room for doubt.

Deng Guangxu, though full of worry, still obeyed the order and waved at the soldiers behind him.

Provincial Government troops stepped back neatly two steps, folded their rifles, Standing to both sides, and yielded the central open space.

Jiangnan Wang, seeing the Provincial Government troops retreat, his face Immediately showed a ferocious Laughter, and roared loudly at the Royal Guard.

What are you all standing still doing? Attack this king!

Capture Jiang Feng, life or death notwithstanding! Whoever captures him, this king will reward him Hundred Ten Thousand, and also reward him a position as Elite Guard Commander!

Hundred Ten Thousand cash plus the status of Elite Guard Commander, this reward is enough to drive anyone mad!

Royal Guard's eyes instantly lit up, Breath also became rapid, hands pressed on the sword handles, clearly already itching to move.

Jiangnan Wang, watching the Royal Guard's reaction, Mouth corner's Laughter grew richer.

He already began scheming in his mind, waiting to capture Jiang Feng, how to torture him, to relieve his own heart's hatred.

He wants everyone to know how tragic the fate is for those who offend him!

But after his words fell, upHundred Royal Guard, as if a Binding Spell had been cast, still stood motionless, Standing in place!

Not only did they not rush forward, they didn't even move a finger.

Jiangnan Wang was stunned, thinking the Royal Guard hadn't heard clearly, he raised his voice again and roared once.

Act! Didn't you hear? Whoever captures Jiang Feng, this king will add another Hundred Ten Thousand!

The response to him was still a death-like silence.

UpHundred Royal Guard still did not move a hair, as if nailed to the Green Stone Slab.

As if they were not living individuals, but statues each.

The scene instantly fell into a strange silence.

Jiangnan Wang's Laughter froze on his face, his eyes full of astonishment and disbelief.

His Royal Guard, all death soldiers he personally trained, have always obeyed his commands without question.

Even if climbing a Mountain of knives and descending a Sea of Fire, they would never hesitate!

What happened today? Why does no one act?

Everyone's gaze, subconsciously, fell on Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng still Standing in place, his face bearing a faint Laughter, his eyes calmly looking at Jiangnan Wang.

At this moment, Jiangnan Wang suddenly recalled Wu Chengliang from just now.

It seemed Wu Chengliang had just been motionless like this as well.

He finally realized, abruptly turned his head to look at Jiang Feng, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.

"It's you! Is it you who caused this? What did you do to them?"
