Bang, bang, bang.
Dense fists and kicks, along with screams, could be heard.
Over a dozen bodyguards were all sent flying, crashing to the ground, groaning without anyone able to stand up.
"Who dares cause trouble for the Deng family?" At this mont, an old man's angry voice resounded.
Soon footsteps approached, and old master Deng Fangzhen, his son Deng Yuan, and his grandchildren Deng Han and Deng Ziyu walked out from a villa.
Deng Fangzhen's gaze fell on Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, clad in a leopard-skin coat, and Ala Martial Saint, dressed in the colorful attire of Yun ng.
"Are you Deng Fangzhen?" Celestial Wolf Martial Saint's voice was cold.
"Yes, I am Deng Fangzhen." Deng Fangzhen replied loudly.
"Then you must know Lin Fei?" Celestial Wolf Martial Saint asked.
Deng Fangzhen noticed that this person was not here with good intentions, most likely targeting Lin Fei.
"Of course, Lin Fei is a benefactor of the Deng family. You must be one of those harboring ill intentions toward Lin Fei?" Deng Fangzhen said coldly.
"That's right. Today, I've co to capture you to make Lin Fei obediently hand over what we want." An insidious smile twisted on the lips of Celestial Wolf Martial Saint.
Deng Fangzhen knew that Lin Fei was the grandson of Lin Zheng, and what Celestial Wolf Martial Saint said made him suspect they were after the Martial Saint Heart Sutra.
"Deng Yuan, take Ziyu and Han'er inside first. I'll handle these villains myself." Deng Fangzhen said, eyes locked on Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, without turning his head to Deng Yuan behind him.
"Yes, Father." Deng Yuan agreed.
Boom.
Deng Fangzhen threw a punch at Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, his Martial Emperor's Qi stirring up a storm.
However, facing the incoming punch, Celestial Wolf Martial Saint didn't even blink, let alone dodge.
This punch from Deng Fangzhen landed solidly on him.
Bam.
The air shook violently.
Unexpectedly, an astonishing force storm erupted from Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, blasting Deng Fangzhen into the air.
Crash.
Deng Fangzhen was sent flying, smashing through a wall and landing hard in the villa's living room.
He spat out a large mouthful of blood.
"Grandpa!" Deng Ziyu and Deng Han's faces filled with urgency as they rushed over.
Deng Yuan frowned, glaring angrily at Celestial Wolf Martial Saint outside.
Celestial Wolf Martial Saint sneered, "Only a re Martial Emperor Realm, yet you dare to make a move against ? Really overestimating yourself."
Then, Celestial Wolf Martial Saint stepped towards the villa.
As he was about to reach the villa, an old man's cold voice rang out, "Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, don't act recklessly!"
With that voice, a figure landed at the villa's entrance, blocking Celestial Wolf Martial Saint's path.
This was an old man dressed in a Zhongshan suit, with white hair, a lean face, yet with bright, piercing eyes, exuding a powerful aura.
"Wu Weiweng!" Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, upon seeing the old man, showed a hint of surprise on his face.
"Zhu Tianlang, this is the Capital City, a crucial ground. You lead Yun ng's n, harming the innocent. Aren't you afraid of inciting the wrath of the Capital City's guardian forces?" The old man looked directly at Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, emitting an aura of authority.
"I almost forgot, you're a Martial Saint, part of the Huaxia guardian forces. But the standing of the guardian forces has long changed. I've heard that dozens of Martial Saints from the guardian forces have reached a bottleneck in their own cultivation and begun to retreat into seclusion." Celestial Wolf Martial Saint sneered coldly.
"Moreover, the Huaxia borders, the Southeast Islands, the Northwest Desert and glaciers—this vast country stretches for thousands of miles. The Martial Saints of the guardian forces are scattered everywhere. I wonder how many Martial Saints remain in the Capital City?"
Wu Weiweng was indeed one of Huaxia's guardian Martial Saints. He showed up at the Deng family due to a call from Chen Wuyue, asking for protection while he was out of town.
Chen Wuyue had shared with Wu Weiweng the news Lin Fei had told him—that Celestial Wolf Martial Saint had colluded with Yun ng Martial Saint and entered the Capital City, intending to target the Chen family.
As a guardian Martial Saint, Wu Weiweng's duty was to protect Huaxia's key figures. With Celestial Wolf Martial Saint and Yun ng Martial Saint causing trouble in the Capital, he couldn't stand by and let them be unruly.
Wu Weiweng smiled coldly and said to Celestial Wolf Martial Saint, "Zhu Tianlang, it seems you know Huaxia's guardian forces quite well, but so what? Even if dozens of the guardian Martial Saints have retired into seclusion, even if most have been deployed around the borders, to guard the nation, with and other guardian Martial Saints here, you will not be allowed to cause chaos."
The guardian forces, dedicated to protecting Huaxia, are a mysterious group made up entirely of Martial Saints and form the backbone of Huaxia's martial artist strength.
So are stationed in the Capital City, so are in various regions, so are in the border deserts, and so are on the isolated islands.
But regardless of where they are, they stand like an invisible steel Great Wall, defending Huaxia and crushing any formidable enemy daring to harbor ambitions against the nation.
That's why they are the guardian forces.
Wu Weiweng was one of these forces, primarily safeguarding the Capital City.
However, the guardian forces, inheriting from Huaxia's millennium-old legacy, have declined due to the loss of talent, the passing of Martial Saints unable to withstand ti, and many encountering problems in cultivation, forcing them to retire into seclusion.
Today's guardian forces are not what they once were.
Yet, as these tis are peaceful, without conflicts or crises, the shortcomings of the guardian forces have remained unseen.
"Wu Weiweng, I want to see how many guardian Martial Saints are left in the Capital! In the past, you drove out, forbidding the Celestial Wolf Martial Saint from appearing here, making suffer in the harsh desert for decades. Now it's ti for you to be ousted from the Capital!" Zhu Tianlang's eyes shone with hatred.
"Fifty years ago, we could drive you out of the Capital, and today, we can do it again." Wu Weiweng's eyes were bright, his voice firm.
"Fine, then let's see who gets to stay in the Capital today?" As soon as Celestial Wolf Martial Saint finished speaking, he unleashed Martial Saint's Qi, attacking Wu Weiweng.
Inside the villa's living room, Deng Ziyu and her brother had already helped their grandfather Deng Fangzhen up. Seeing Wu Weiweng outside the villa, Deng Fangzhen was surprised, muttering, "So, the guardian Martial Saint has indeed co!"
Then, as if he rembered sothing, Deng Fangzhen said to Deng Ziyu, "Yesterday, Wu Yue called , saying there's a chance Lin Fei might co to the Capital. Call him now and warn him not to, it's dangerous."
Deng Ziyu nodded imdiately, pulling out her phone to call Lin Fei.
The call connected quickly, and wind could be heard through the phone, along with Lin Fei's voice: "Ziyu, is everything okay at your place? I'm almost at the Deng family."
"No... no problem? You said you're almost at my house?" Deng Ziyu was surprised.
"Yeah, I'm flying over skyscrapers right now. The wind's strong up here. I'll explain more when I reach your house." After saying so, Lin Fei hung up the call.
Deng Ziyu: "..."
She only then realized that the wind noise she heard was Lin Fei flying above the skyscrapers.
"Ziyu, what did Lin Fei say?" Deng Fangzhen asked his granddaughter.
Deng Ziyu replied, "Grandpa, I'm afraid it's too late. Lin Fei just told on the phone that he's almost at our house now."
"What?!" Deng Fangzhen was dumbfounded as well. "It's over!"
