Chapter 207: Chapter 206: Bai Ziyue... Who is He? Tang Zhanfei, who had been observing the expressions on their faces, felt a jolt in his heart. Coupled with Wang Peng’s previous explanation, he became very anxious. His figure, like a flash of lightning, rushed out directly. Bang! With a loud noise, the main gate of Unity Courtyard collapsed. Tang Zhanfei paused momentarily, then immediately rushed inside. "What are you doing?" The faces of the two Law Enforcement Disciples guarding the door changed drastically. They shouted urgently and chased after him. Bai Ziyue and Wang Peng didn’t expect Tang Zhanfei to be so impulsive and rush out directly. Afraid he’d suffer, Bai Ziyue said, "Go, follow him." They quickly followed through the gate, rushing into the courtyard. With just a few leaps, they caught up with the few Law Enforcement Disciples. But at that moment, Tang Zhanfei had already disappeared around the corner. They quickly followed. Just as they crossed the corner, they saw a Law Enforcement Disciple, seemingly flustered, coming out of a room with disheveled clothes. Looking into the room, they saw a figure with half-exposed white skin lying motionless on the bed. Their hearts sank simultaneously. But soon, they were stunned, not seeing any sign of Tang Zhanfei. While hesitating, looking towards other rooms. Bang! A sound like a building collapsing echoed, and even the rubble kept falling from the roof. "Who are you? Looking for death?" An angry voice followed. "Who am I? I’m the one who’s going to kill you." Tang Zhanfei, unable to suppress his anger, made his long sword hum, turning it into a flash of lightning. "Looking for death!" The man roared, picking up a long saber beside him, and quickly engaged in combat. Bang! Suddenly, a wall was violently smashed open, large chunks of dust and rubble falling down. Two figures rushed out from inside. "Stop!" Wang Peng swiftly turned into a swift eagle, easily inserting himself into the middle of their fight, his long saber sweeping them apart. Immediately after, another five or six figures quickly gathered from all directions of Unity Pavilion. "Are you alright?" Bai Ziyue approached Tang Zhanfei, whispering. "I’m fine. Junior Brother, I’m sorry for the trouble I’ve caused you." Tang Zhanfei whispered back, quickly rushing into the half-collapsed room, and helped out a figure covered in whip marks, her hands bloodied. Judging by her appearance, she hadn’t been violated, but had clearly suffered greatly. "Guardian Wang, what is the meaning of this? Are you trying to rob the execution ground?" The Law Enforcement Disciple who had been stopped, his face darkened, spoke coldly. "Steward Dai, we were wrong in this matter. After this, I will surely go to Celestial Fragrance Pavilion, set up a good table with wine and food to apologize." Wang Peng also looked displeased at Tang Zhanfei, who, although willing to help, did not want to get involved in such trouble. "Guardian Wang, no need to be so polite, you don’t need to apologize. However, your friend has trespassed into the Law Enforcement Hall’s critical area, and the responsibility has already been set. He will have to stay here for a while. I suspect he has some collusion with people from Wind Thunder Escort Agency, intending to plot against our Sunburst Gang." Dai Qiang gave Wang Peng a smirk and then looked at Tang Zhanfei with a fierce expression. Although he couldn’t offend Guardian Wang, this was the Law Enforcement Hall’s territory, and he was in the right here, so he naturally wasn’t afraid. "What do you mean?" Wang Peng stepped forward, frowning at him. Dai Qiang sneered, "What do I mean? I should ask what you guys mean. Do you think the Law Enforcement Hall is a place you can just mess with? If you push me, none of you will leave today." "Such bold words." Bai Ziyue was slightly angry, giving him a glance. "Steward Dai, cut the nonsense. Brother Tang must be taken away, and so must this woman. I presume you just want to extort some silver from her. Name your price, I won’t let you have a hard time." Wang Peng frowned again at Tang Zhanfei, thinking that what should have been a simple matter had now become complicated. Even though he had high status and strong power, he couldn’t be too forceful with the disciples in the gang. Besides, Steward Dai, despite his low strength, had a solid background. His sister was the Seventh Concubine of Elder Gongg in the gang, so he couldn’t offend him too much. Thus, he had to soften his tone, planning to offer some money to ensure a safe retreat. Of course, he wouldn’t spend his own money. It would either come from Tang Zhanfei or Bai Ziyue, but that was not his concern. "Since Guardian Wang is so generous, I can’t disrespect him. So, a thousand taels of silver per person, and I’ll pretend none of this happened." Dai Qiang didn’t mind Bai Ziyue’s slight, thinking he was just Wang Peng’s subordinate, and with a light shrug, a relaxed smile appeared on his face as he looked at Wang Peng. "A thousand taels?" Tang Zhanfei’s eyes widened, and anger surged uncontrollably. A thousand taels of silver were enough for a family of five to live comfortably for twenty or thirty years, enough to buy a large mansion of more than three acres in Wujiang County, and even enough to train an ordinary talented youth to become an Inner Cultivation Master. Not to mention that he didn’t have it, even if he did, he wouldn’t be willing to give it. Especially seeing Zhao Ya’er, who had clearly suffered numerous hardships, the rage in his heart rolled over once again. "We are definitely taking the person with us, and as for the silver, there’s nothing. If this was an execution ground, then we would indeed stage a rescue." Bai Ziyue, who was already dissatisfied, finally spoke up. His tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable dominance. "Oh? Who do you think you are, talking big like this? I want to see how you’ll take them away!" Dai Qiang’s face darkened as he looked at Bai Ziyue mockingly. He had some apprehension towards Wang Peng, but Bai Ziyue... who was he? He didn’t know him, nor did he want to know. "Let’s go!" Bai Ziyue just shouted and turned to leave. "I’ll see who dares to leave!" Dai Qiang was taken aback and quickly rushed forward. Facing him, however, was an extremely fast punch. Boom! Dai Qiang’s body flew backward at a speed even faster than he had charged, flying three or four zhang away, landing on the already broken rooftop. Whoosh! Countless pieces of debris rolled down with him, almost burying him inside. Bai Ziyue slowly withdrew his fist and glanced around at the others, saying, "I’m taking the person, who has any objections?" The scene was silent. The disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall looked at each other. They were all intimidated; none of them had the confidence to take that punch. In fact, Steward Dai was already the strongest among them, and since even he couldn’t take it, the others were even less capable. Even Wang Peng, who had long reached the peak of the Inner Power Realm, looked at Bai Ziyue with a face full of surprise. The power of that punch was something even he had to take seriously. If he hadn’t failed to sense any inner strength from that punch, he would have suspected that Bai Ziyue had already cultivated inner strength and reached the Inner Power Realm. "Let’s go!" Seeing that no one else was speaking, Bai Ziyue said calmly. Tang Zhanfei’s eyes widened, and he finally came to his senses, hastily pulling the woman beside him and following Bai Ziyue. Now, Bai Ziyue’s strength was overwhelmingly strong, and it wasn’t just facing some ordinary gang members; even within the gang, there were few hall masters or elders who could surpass him. He naturally had strong confidence. How could a group of people who hadn’t even cultivated inner strength earn his respect? Initially, he had planned to follow the gang’s rules honestly. That’s why he had invited Wang Peng, intending to use his influence to help his senior brother, repaying the favor he owed for his previous sincere help without any greed. After all, if it weren’t for that incident, he wouldn’t have been able to get the Golden Bell Shield protective technique from the gang leader. Unexpectedly, the other party dared to distort the truth in front of him and push things to the limit. He couldn’t blame him for losing his temper then. The strong cannot be humiliated! Although he had hidden his strength, it didn’t mean he was truly willing to endure. By now, even if he did reveal his strength, so what? He was already a completely different person now. When the four of them left the Unity Courtyard, Wang Peng couldn’t help but ask in shock, "How strong are you really? That punch, I feel even ordinary Peak Inner Cultivation Martial Artists wouldn’t be able to take it." Bai Ziyue thought for a moment. Previously, in front of the gang leader, he had publicly stated that he was at the Inner Cultivation of the Six Viscera stage. After a period of seclusion, it would be natural to move up a bit. Late-Stage Inner Cultivation seemed like a suitable level, so he said, "I just broke through to the Inner Cultivation of the Five Viscera and Six Bowels." "The reason I could achieve such an effect, firstly, was because his strength was weak. Secondly, I have Innate Divine Power, combined with a fairly advanced level of fist technique. Ultimately, it’s still because he’s too weak." Bai Ziyue shook his head and said. Beside him, Tang Zhanfei’s expression became quite colorful. He didn’t think Dai Qiang’s strength was weak at all. If it weren’t for Wang Peng’s intervention earlier, he might have suffered a small loss. Considering this, there could only be one reason: Bai Ziyue’s strength was too overwhelming. Thinking about his junior brother’s growth speed, he couldn’t help but feel a bit of reverence. "Brother Bai’s strength is already quite formidable. Perhaps in one or two years, you’ll cultivate inner strength. In terms of talent, you might even surpass that White-clothed Swordsman Chen Qingyun, truly impressive." Wang Peng still looked admiringly at Bai Ziyue, his gaze towards him changing significantly. If before his help was just a transaction to get the Crack Saber from Bai Ziyue, now he felt a sense of wanting to form a genuine connection. His tone became more serious as he reminded, "However, this time’s actions, although satisfying, will inevitably offend the Law Enforcement Hall. Moreover, behind Dai Qiang stands Elder Gong, who has been in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall for nearly twenty years. Both publicly and privately, someone will definitely come looking for trouble with you, Brother Bai. I think you should be prepared early."
