Chapter 153: Chapter 146: Are you f***ing splitting my lon, huh?
“You said this, if you ever deny it in the future, don’t bla for being ruthless,” he responded.
“Dad, does this an it’s settled?” Bei Le’s eyes glead with a spark, and his face was imdiately full of joy.
Bei Haisheng gently swung his folding fan:
“In a few days, I shall almost be sending the betrothal gifts. With here, there won’t be any mishaps.”
“Once I marry her, I won’t cause any more trouble,” Bei Le laughed heartily and quickly ran off.
Since that woman is so capable, after the marriage, he will have to behave for a while. He should take this ti to enjoy himself as much as he could.
Otherwise, there won’t be another chance.
A trace of relief crossed Bei Haisheng’s face.
The young lady of the Shen Family had a good reputation and was decisive in action. She would certainly keep this rogue son in check, providing him a fine destination!
Now, at his age, his greatest concern was this worthless son.
If anything unexpected happened to him, this only son’s fate would definitely not end well.
But Shen Yanshu…
It is said that her cultivation talent is decent, and he envisioned that with his full support, her future promotion to the Qi Absorption Realm would not be too difficult!
That would be leaving a glimr of hope for the Bei family.
…
…
Noon.
Inside the Heavenly Patrol Bureau governnt office.
Chen Yuan had practiced throughout the night after returning ho last night as if nothing had happened. But as soon as he entered the Heavenly Patrol Bureau the next day, he summoned Yue Shan, instructing him to keep a close watch on Bei Haisheng’s only son, Bei Le.
anwhile, he ticulously reviewed the intelligence on Bei Haisheng.
He dared to make his move because, in recent years, the power of Changle Gang had greatly declined, and it could hardly control the territories of West City and South City any longer. As for Bei Haisheng,
it was said that although his level was of the Heavenly Gang, his strength was considered among the weakest.
He essentially played a role akin to a staff officer.
The strength was only marginally better than that of a Condensing Evil Martial Artist. Although it was very difficult for Chen Yuan to defeat him, he would absolutely not lose too badly. With the Blood Evil Saber to protect him,
all he needed was to catch his opponent off-guard, and Chen Yuan was confident he could take his life.
Should he afterward obtain the Phoenix Marrow Energy…
Chen Yuan’s strength might likewise greatly increase!
At that ti…
Who would be causing trouble for whom was not yet certain.
“Sir!”
Yue Shan walked into the hall and imdiately saw Chen Yuan seated at the head, greeting him with a cheerful cupped fist salute. In private, the formality of their titles diminished between them.
It beca sowhat more equal.
Of course, in public, Yue Shan was still very respectful. Even though Chen Yuan had never ntioned this matter, Yue Shan understood it well.
“Hmm, sit,” Chen Yuan said, pointing to a seat nearby.
Yue Shan didn’t beat around the bush and directly took a seat, then looked towards Chen Yuan and said,
“Sir, the investigation you asked to conduct is almost concluded.”
“That quick?” Chen Yuan asked, sowhat surprised.
Yue Shan was really a good subordinate, never having made a mistake in his tasks.
Yue Shan smiled and said, “If you had asked to investigate soone else, it would have taken several days to clarify, but this Bei Le…” He sneered:
“Such a wasteful scion, a scourge of Jianghu, doesn’t need a thorough investigation at all, you just need to ask around casually to know his whereabouts.”
Although he wasn’t exactly righteous, he absolutely couldn’t stand such scum who bullied n and dominated won, causing chaos among the people; he would have slaughtered this brat long ago if given the chance.
Previously, he had hoped that Lord Zhang Xuan would cripple the guy, but Bei Le was also quite clever. It seed that he had heard that Zhang Xuan was not easy to provoke; as soon as Zhang Xuan’s na was ntioned, he would imdiately cease his misdeeds.
But once, they accidentally encountered Bei Le still very subserviently toasting Zhang Xuan, who directly splashed the drink on his face. Yue Shan thought he would fly into a rage,
Yue Shan and a few others were already thinking about how to dispose of that guy.
Unexpectedly, Bei Le straightaway said:
“Thank you for the drink bestowed by Patrol Envoy Zhang.”
He then walked out the door with a big laugh, not minding Zhang Xuan’s disdainful gaze at all.
During that period, Yue Shan even thought Bei Le was soone who recognized the situation and wasn’t so reckless, but afterwards, they learned that after Zhang Xuan’s reputation spread,
Bei Haisheng had once strictly warned Bei Le not to provoke Zhang Xuan.
Aside from Zhang Xuan, so prominent figures in Nanling Prefecture were also listed by Bei Haisheng as untouchables.
After learning his lesson, Bei Le rembered this advice well.
He didn’t provoke any of the tough figures in Nanling Prefecture City, living his wasteful life quietly and safely until now.
It was Bei Haisheng’s guidance that had allowed Bei Le to remain arrogant to this day.
Otherwise, no one’s son would have been of any use.
Chen Yuan chuckled silently, Bei Le really was a public anger.
“Where is he now?”
“At Tingyu Pavilion in West City. According to the information obtained, this wretch has also abducted a respectable woman, making her husband watch on the side. It’s simply reprehensible!”
As Yue Shan ntioned this, his face couldn’t help but show rage.
The four of them had done it right before the woman’s husband, for crying out loud!
“Let’s go, follow this Envoy to enforce justice on behalf of Heaven!”
Chen Yuan’s lips curled up slightly as he slowly stood up.
“Sir, what are you suggesting?” Yue Shan asked in shock, rising to his feet imdiately, sensing the implication in Chen Yuan’s words. From the mont Chen Yuan had instructed him to investigate Bei Le, he had so suspicions,
and now…
“Sir, Bei Le is Bei Haisheng’s only son. If we lay a hand on him…” Yue Shan hesitated, his face uncertain. Bei Haisheng of the Changle Gang was not soone easy to deal with.
Even Zhang Xuan, with no personal grievance, wouldn’t touch him.
“Who said we’re going to lay a hand on him? I suspect the woman may be connected with a demon of the No-Life Sect. We are here to investigate the truth,” Chen Yuan said with a smile.
The tasks targeting the No-Life Sect’s demons within the Heavenly Patrol Bureau haven’t been removed yet.
Every Patrol Envoy has the duty to pursue it!
…
…
The reputation of Tingyu Pavilion, especially in the West City of Nanling Prefecture, is substantial. The girls there speak sweetly and are beautiful, starkly different from the courtesans in the counties below.
Each one is ticulously grood, not to say masters of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but they are well-versed in them.
It’s also Bei Le’s favorite place to visit.
He wasn’t short on money and could enjoy supre services at Tingyu Pavilion, and the madam there wouldn’t dare to offend the young master from the Bei family.
At this mont, he was holding a teary-faced courtesan, his hands wandering freely, with a sinister smile on his face, which was entirely unrestrained, but no one around seed to think it amiss.
A few paces away from them, a plainly dressed young man was being restrained by several mbers of the Changle Gang, unable to move at all, veins bulging in fury in his face,
flas of anger rising in his eyes. Regrettably, it was all in vain.
He could only watch the scene unfold with intense regret. He should not have brought his wife to sell lons, then he wouldn’t have encountered this devil.
On the stage above, a girl from Tingyu Pavilion tossed her black hair playfully, dressed very scantily, and from ti to ti threw seductive glances at the n below in the hall.
“Good show, well deserved reward!”
Bei Le shouted loudly, and a servant by his side imdiately threw a piece of broken silver upwards.
This was the young master’s habit, to throw silver whenever he saw sothing pleasing.
“Old Bei, are you really going to marry Shen Yanshu?”
The other richly dressed n at the table looked towards Bei Le with curiosity.
In their perception, Bei Le didn’t seem the type to fancy marriage.
“Yes, I hear Shen’s wife is no simple woman. She has a fierce and decisive manner.”
“Will you still be able to co out and play afterwards?”
Bei Le turned his head and chuckled lightly,
“I’m tired of the docile types; now I am interested to see what it feels like to play with soone prickly.”
“Moreover, Shen’s wife is quite beautiful. Being scolded by such a lady is also worthwhile.”
“Shen Yanshu’s submission?”
The others asked very concernedly.
“With my father around, could a minor Shen family really stir up any trouble? It’s their family’s honor to marry into mine,” Bei Le said, curling his lips dismissively.
The others exchanged glances, thinking it indeed made sense.
Bei Haisheng’s influence was not sothing a minor Shen family could rival; in the West City, the worst people to offend were those from the Changle Gang, especially the leaders.
Shen Kaishan’s submission was thus expected.
“You all too, should stop thinking about playing all the ti and start attending to serious matters,” Bei Le said earnestly, yet his actions betrayed him.
The four of them were the most notorious playboys in Nanling Prefecture, each backed by extraordinary backgrounds, gathered together through shared interests. Hearing Bei Le say this, they all sneered disdainfully.
They all knew each other too well!
“Wuu, you brute, you beast!”
“Wuu…”
The young man who was restrained mumbled harshly before soone quickly gagged him with a towel.
Bei Le’s eyebrows raised, the more it happened, the more excited he beca.
He then stood up, wrapping his arm around a pretty girl next to him, and walked over to him, lightly slapping the restrained man’s face while chuckling,
“Don’t defa , young master. It was clearly you who, overwheld with gratitude for buying your lons, offered your wife to please .”
“Little lady, isn’t that right?”
He turned and lifted the chin of the girl next to him, saying with a smile.
The girl’s eyes teared up, too frightened to speak, having been threatened earlier that if she resisted, her husband would be thrown into the Yunjiang River that night.
“Hahaha.”
Bei Le laughed a few tis, stuffing a five-silver piece on the man:
“I’ve bought all your lons, saving you the trouble of selling them under the sun. You don’t need to thank .”
He then ordered his servants to carry all the lons from the entrance of Tingyu Pavilion into the hall, loudly declaring,
“Gentlen, I invite you all to enjoy these lons.”
Big waterlons were distributed to everyone’s hands.
“Thank you, Master Bei.”
“Master Bei is generous.”
In the hall, thanks echoed continuously.
Seeing everyone start on their lons, Bei Le placed the largest one on the table and said,
“Gentlen, please.”
He was about to draw his knife to cut it, but he quickly froze because suddenly the entire hall fell silent. He turned his head to see several n in blue long robes walking towards him.
With a “snap,” the man leading them drew his sword and split the waterlon on the table in two.
Bei Le blinked in shock, then shouted in fury,
“You’re chopping my lon, huh!”
