Urban Carefree Warrior God Chapter 598 599: The Royal Family of the West Sea, What Are

The rain intensified, pouring down in a deluge. But this did nothing to stop the footsteps of those who ca to attend the celebration and watch the spectacle.

By ten o'clock in the morning, the rain canopy set up earlier by the Martial Association was already packed to capacity. Although rain would still get inside from ti to ti as the wind shifted, those who could sit under the canopy were, without exception, the powerful families and dignitaries of Cangyun City's upper society.

So what if their clothes got wet and they looked a bit disheveled? Compared to fostering good relations with the Martial Association and eting mbers of the West Sea royal family, what did it matter?

Outside the canopy, a long cordon had been established, guarded by disciples of the Martial Association. This single line seed to separate two worlds: commoners on the outside, elites on the inside.

Countless people in raincoats and holding umbrellas stood outside the cordon, craning their necks to look around.

"The Martial Association Headquarters… has it actually been surrounded?"

"I heard the visitor is none other than the Jingnan Prince from Hanyun Valley. And this fellow, only made a prince yesterday, was previously the Governor's right-hand man—his most trusted confidant. Think about that."

"People have been saying for a long ti that even though the Governor was relieved of his duties, his influence remains. Today seems to prove it."

"It's not that simple. If you dig deeper, there are too many things that can't be explained."

"..."

The onlookers chattered amongst themselves, the atmosphere electric and lively. They only knew the Zhennan Prince had been dismissed; they were oblivious to the fact that it was rely a ruse by the Elders' Court. The forr Zhennan Prince had already been elevated to War God of the State. Hence, they speculated endlessly, unable to uncover the truth no matter how deep they dug.

"Latest news! One hundred and fifty thousand Martial Guards have deployed and are marching this way!"

In an instant, the announcent sent shockwaves through the crowd. Within just a few minutes, this earth-shattering news spread like a bursting dam, swiftly inundating the entire city of Cangyun.

Countless people were dumbfounded.

Reinforcents? For the Governor who already stepped down? Such a large-scale mobilization—aren't the higher-ups going to do anything?

「At the sa ti.」

The entire imperial city went into complete lockdown.

The news reached Shang Bai. Although he had prepared for this, he still couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart. The sheer scale of this deploynt was astonishing. Despite having always stayed close to major figures like Zhou Yanqing, he had never experienced a scene like this before.

Over a hundred thousand people! What kind of scene will that be?

But when his gaze landed on Li Chenfeng, who remained completely unfazed, his churning thoughts began to stabilize. With Li Chenfeng here, the Martial Association Headquarters was nothing but a net, waiting for its quarry to walk right in.

THUD. THUD. THUD.

Heavy footsteps cut through the sound of the downpour, pounding in everyone's eardrums.

Is he here? He's here!

A young man appeared, his head tilted to one side. He was carrying a brand-new coffin on one shoulder as he ascended the stairs, drawing closer step by step. Each footfall landed like a clap of thunder, shaking the very ground.

At that mont, it wasn't just the ordinary onlookers; even Shang Bai and the Martial Association disciples looked up, holding their breath with rapt attention as they watched in silence. The downpour was too heavy, obscuring their view. It was not yet possible to see the newcor's face clearly.

PATTER. PATTER.

Raindrops burst upon the coffin's surface like a thousand blooming flowers.

WHOOSH!

The high-ranking officials of the Martial Association all took a step forward, gripping their weapons tightly, their expressions tense and ready.

The very next second, the young man's arm gave a fierce jerk, and he tossed the pitch-black coffin.

SWOOSH!

The coffin hurtled through the air in an arc, landing solidly seven or eight ters away. It slid forward, finally coming to a halt less than five ters from Shang Bai.

This scene was a jaw-dropping sight. Setting aside the man's imnse strength, the sheer aura he exuded was enough to make one gasp. Utterly stunning.

As the man drew closer, Shang Bai's eyebrows shot up. "Mr. Li Chenfeng, this man is not him!"

"Oh?" Li Chenfeng, standing under a large umbrella, remarked with interest, "Could this be the rumored Jingnan Prince?"

He lit a cigarette and shook his head in disappointnt. "Is he too afraid to co out himself, sending an underling instead? How boring."

Shang Bai grew anxious. If their target really decided to hide and not show himself, wouldn't today's grand display be a complete waste? A Jingnan Prince had indeed shown up, but this re prince was beneath his notice. As long as that other person was alive, he would always be a great hidden threat.

"Hmph!" Shang Bai snorted coldly. "Jingnan Prince, this is none of your business. Today's matters are not for you to ddle in. If you don't want to die, leave imdiately!"

"And tell that man to co here!"

SHING! Liu Wu reached behind his back and drew a Broad-Backed War Saber. "Are you the Martial Association President, Shang Bai?"

"I am!"

"I didn't know your asurents beforehand. Why don't you lie down in the coffin and see if it fits?" Liu Wu pointed his broadsword toward the coffin, letting the rain stream down his face as a wicked grin spread across his lips.

Shang Bai: "..."

"Insolent!"

"For a re prince to act so arrogantly and spout such nonsense at our Martial Association, it seems you truly don't know how to write the word 'death'!"

The senior mbers of the Martial Association beside him chid in with rebukes, their expressions frosty. On any ordinary day, they wouldn't dare confront the Jingnan Prince, but today was different. With soone from the West Sea royal family backing them, what did they have to fear?

However…

BOOM!

Liu Wu's war saber hacked horizontally through the air.

SWISH!

The curtain of rain was severed as the attack tore forward, destroying everything in its path. A blinding crimson stained the ground, and despite the heavy downpour, the blood couldn't be washed away quickly.

The dead were none other than those who had just berated him. He had cut them all down with a single, clean strike.

Shang Bai: "..."

Everyone: "..."

To kill several people in the blink of an eye?

"You arrogant fiend!"

After a brief silence, a dignitary at Shang Bai's side leaped out, pointing at Liu Wu. "You're a murderer! You don't deserve the title of prince!"

"What place do you think this is? Do you have any respect for us or for Mr. Li Chenfeng?"

"Forget you, even if 'he' were here, he'd have to grovel before !"

Liu Wu propped the war saber on his shoulder and asked earnestly, "And you are?"

"I am Wu Qingshan, of the Wu Family of Cangyun City!"

The burly Wu Qingshan unfastened the buttons on his shirt and declared righteously, "Killing soone right in front of Mr. Li Chenfeng—you're finished!"

As soon as he said this, many in the crowd looked on with envy. Wu Qingshan had reacted quickly, knowing to jump out and condemn the perpetrator. By doing so, he would surely leave a deep impression on Li Chenfeng. Cultivating a relationship with a mber of the imperial family, even an in-law, promised endless benefits.

Tsk, tsk...

Just as the crowd was filled with envy, Liu Wu beckoned to his lieutenant. "Take so n to the Wu Family. Detain everyone."

Wu Qingshan: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Damn, what a ruthless move!

"You… you…" Wu Qingshan sputtered through clenched teeth.

"I don't have many hobbies," Liu Wu said, shouldering his war saber with a grin. "I just enjoy beating lapdogs."

"Enough," Li Chenfeng finally spoke. He narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "One more arrogant word, and I will behead you myself."

"Is that so?"

From within the downpour, a faint, ethereal voice suddenly rang out, seemingly unaffected by the torrential rain.

Two n appeared, one walking behind the other. The man in the back held an umbrella as they slowly approached.

"Go on. Behead soone. Give this Mr. Chen a show."

In an instant, a jolt went through everyone.

The man himself has arrived
