C47 A Trifle in the City
C47 A Trifle in the City
It was not that the citizens did not value the Trial Convention this time, it was just that this time, the Trial Convention was very strict. It was not something that the citizens could watch, and it affected the mentality of the participants.
Therefore, when Nie Zhen and the others entered the Chisong City, although some passersby glanced at them, they did not cause too much trouble. At most, they only looked at it for a while and then left as if they did not have enough.
This time, the number of participants heading towards the Chisong City was far greater than the number of participants from the noble clans.
At most, there would be a large crowd of people spectating, but this time, the people participating in the Trial Convention were all martial arts students who were under the age of twenty.
Nie Zhen and the other two entered the city gate and headed straight for the main city of Chi Song. This time, all the martial arts students inside the Chisong Prefecture would gather there and then head towards the Yutang City.
Just as Nie Zhen and the rest were about to arrive at the main city, they suddenly heard the sound of galloping horses and an extremely arrogant voice: "Jia!" Ride! Hurry up and get out of my way, you piece of trash! "
Nie Zhen remained unmoved. Murong Cheng and Hai Yunshang simultaneously looked behind them and saw a well-dressed young man riding on a horse in the city towards the main city.
Due to the speed of the teenager's horse being too fast, even with Murong Cheng and Hai Yunshang's cultivation, they were unable to dodge it. As for Nie Zhen, although he had a way to avoid it, he disdained it.
"Phew!" Seeing that the three of them were not moved after hearing his order, the teenager gritted his teeth and reined the horse in. At the same time, he waved the Long Whip in his hand: "How dare you! Are you all deaf or blind?! Young Master's order is actually not reacting at all?! "
"Where did this madman come from?!" You should give us time to react! Moreover, who are you, and what right do you have to order us! " She was, after all, the daughter of the head of the Hai Clan, one of the three Wealthy Classes in the Chisong Prefecture. Although she wouldn't bully others with her power, the so-called Buddha also had his own flames of anger.
"This friend here is getting a bit agitated. In any case, there aren't any casualties so why not just let this matter pass? After all, we are all people with status, and making a ruckus in front of everyone doesn't sound good for our reputation."
Murong Cheng took a step forward and smiled as a peacemaker, because this was right next to the main city of Chi Song. This commotion had already attracted many spectators and martial arts students who were preparing to participate in Trial Convention.
Even if it was the Patriarch of a Wealthy Class, he could only dismount and lead the horse by foot. Even if it was the Marquis himself, he could at most sit on a horse or in a horse carriage and slowly walk around. If you wanted to ride your horse within the city, it was absolutely illegal to do so.
Of course, this is only a matter of law and order in name. If there really is a son of a duke doing something like this, you can't really do it, so once a person's status reaches a certain level, everyone will turn a blind eye.
There was only one possibility for this person to dare to ride his horse in front of everyone, and that was that he was born in a very noble family, even deeper than the three Wealthy Class children. This was also the reason why Murong Cheng did not want to get along with this person, but Murong Cheng's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and he did not belittle himself too much.
Seeing Murong Cheng's attitude, as the daughter of the Wealthy Class Patriarch, Hai Yunshang immediately thought of this as well. However, she was a lot more stubborn than Murong Cheng.
"Humph!"
Murong Cheng wanted to settle this matter peacefully, but no one had ever dared to express their dissatisfaction. He, Liu Tie, was a small overlord within the Chisong City, and he relied on his status as the cousin of Duke Chisong's young masters, which meant that he was used to dominating the sect, acting arrogantly and using force to bully the weak. However, no one had ever dared to express their dissatisfaction, and today, he was actually scolded by this girl in front of him.
Just when Murong Cheng and Hai Yunshang thought that they had passed by them, Du Fei, who was on his horse, suddenly made a move. He channeled his strength and raised the Long Whip in his hand, striking towards Hai Yunshang's head.
Hai Yunshang did not have any time to react to Wu Tie's sudden attack, not to mention that Du Fei was a level nine martial arts student, which was already a level higher than Hai Yunshangli, who was a level seven martial arts student. In addition to her sneak attack, Hai Yunshang had no way of defending against it, and even Murong Cheng, who was not far away from Hai Yunshang, had no time to rescue her.
Fortunately, Nie Zhen was standing beside Hai Yunshang.
All of Nie Zhen's Spiritual Sense was locked onto Du Fei. The murderous aura faintly emitted from Du Fei's body could not be hidden from Nie Zhen's Spiritual Sense. The moment Du Fei made his move, Nie Zhen used his movement technique to appear in front of Hai Yunshang, and grabbed onto Du Fei's Long Whip.
Hai Yunshang's face turned pale. That whip strike of Du Fei's was done seriously. If she was to be hit by that whip, then the odds were against her.
Murong Cheng's expression also became serious as he stood in front of Hai Yunshang. However, when he saw Nie Zhen, he relaxed.
Du Fei saw that his whip had been pulled back and exerted force three times, but he was unable to strike back. He could only use all of his strength as he cursed, "Where did this bastard come from!? Hurry up and let go, otherwise Young Master will never forgive you! Do you believe that I won't kill your entire family!? "
Nie Zhen sneered: "Humph... Humph... "If you had tried to sneak attack me before, then you would have ended up threatening my family's lives. Congratulations, you gave me a very suitable reason …"
At this moment, the surrounding onlookers and Du Fei's heart trembled. Although Nie Zhen did not say it explicitly, everyone could understand that the so-called reason of Nie Zhen must be the reason to kill Du Fei.
"Oh no, Du Fei has hit a wall this time..."
"Will we really kill him …?" Du Fei is Duke Chisong's cousin. Even a rich family would have to fear him … "
"I don't think so … This person's killing intent is too obvious, it doesn't seem like a threat … "
Isn't he the Demon King Nie Zhen? My god, I heard that the Patriarch of Shen Family died in his hands not long ago. He is a veteran killer, I think Du Fei is dead for sure this time … "
After Nie Zhen personally killed Shen Faang, Nie Zhen's nickname as the "Infernal King" had somehow spread far and wide. During this period of time, those who were more well-versed in the news all knew of Nie Zhen's nickname. Although they weren't sure if Nie Zhen had really killed Shen Faang, but since there were too many people guessing, there were naturally people who believed in it.
The surrounding people were all talking about this, but no one took pity on Du Fei, because normally, this person's reputation was too bad, and it would not be wrong to describe him as a local thug. Relying on the fact that his family was related to Duke Chisong, no one dared to touch him, and now that they met such a ruthless person, no one would pity him.
"Little bastard, what are you trying to do?!" Du Fei was shocked by Nie Zhen. However, his habit of always putting on airs had made him unable to adjust his identity. He thought that the other party was just a fish on the chopping block and that he was still the one holding the knife …
"Go!" Wu Tie didn't say much and just pulled the whip, directly throwing Du Fei off his horse. The huge force made that big horse kneel down.
Du Fei was caught off guard. He fell from the horse and landed on the ground face first. His tears and blood mixed with the soil on the ground and was pulled in front of him by Nie Zhen along with the whip.
Du Fei's horse was anxious to protect its master when it saw him being humiliated. It rushed towards Nie Zhen with its mouth wide open, ready to bite him.
Nie Zhen stared at the horse and hit the front knee of the horse. He directly broke the horse's knee, then grabbed the horse by the neck and threw it backwards. The horse was thrown dozens of meters away, causing the horse to grimace in pain.
"You, you, you … …. What are you trying to do?! Let me tell you, I am Duke Chisong's cousin. If you want to kill me, there will be no place for you in Chisong Prefecture! " This time, Du Fei was really afraid, Nie Zhen's appearance was definitely not as simple as playing with him, especially since Nie Zhen's imposing manner made Du Fei believe that he definitely had a lot of lives at hand. This kind of person was definitely not on the same level as him, and he was already regretting in his heart, why did he provoke this kind of evil star.
"Humph!" Even if Duke Chisong's son comes, I will still kill him anyway. Who do you think you are! " Nie Zhen sneered. His left hand grabbed the lapel of Du Fei's shirt while his right hand clenched into a fist. He intended to send Du Fei off at once.
Du Fei wanted to escape, but the gap in strength prevented him from doing so. And the fear in his heart made him not even have the courage to run.
"Oh? What kind of person had such a tone and dared to say that he even dared to kill Duke Chisong's son? "If Tang Jun is not talented, I would like to experience it for myself."
Suddenly, a carefree voice entered the crowd's ears. Everyone, including Nie Zhen, looked at the three people who were slowly walking towards Nie Zhen at the periphery of the crowd. That voice came from the person in the lead.
Tang Jun!
Duke Chisong Tang Tian's second son, Tang Ming's second brother. It was said that his cultivation had reached the fifth level of the Human Stage, a level higher than Murong Lee's.
This was going to be a good show!
Everyone was thinking in their hearts. They all knew that Du Fei was the Tang Clan's young master's cousin. Tang Jun could be considered a backer of Du Fei. Moreover, Nie Zhen's words had obviously offended all of the Tang Clan's young masters.
