Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

Seeing Xiang Zuoming in such a state, Gao Xuan was immediately shocked and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xiang, why is this happening? Why on earth are you kneeling to him?"

Xiang Zuoming, at this moment, could no longer be concerned with anyone else; his entire body was prostrated on the ground as he repeatedly begged for mercy, "I am blind and failed to recognize the Northern Border King. I am unworthy, I should die!"

"Brother Xiang, are you saying he is the Northern Border King? The one who single-handedly created the Martial Alliance?"

Gao Xuan's eyes widened suddenly, and then he knelt down rigidly. At that moment, he desperately wanted to beg for mercy, but he found his throat was parched as if it were blocked by something, and he could not utter a word.

There he knelt, trembling all over, a look of fear spreading across his face.

At that time, in the hall, under Ye Feng's instructions, the rest of the high-ranking members of the Martial Alliance had already been sent away, leaving only Xiang Zuoming, Gao Xuan, and Tong Qianqiu.

It seemed that Tong Qianqiu was a bit slow on the uptake, and it wasn't until this moment that he realized the situation. Likewise, he knelt down with a thud.

The hearts of the three were besieged by towering waves, and by then, they didn't even have the courage to lift their heads to look at Ye Feng.

They simply couldn't believe that the person before them was the renowned Northern Border King, who was also the man who single-handedly created the Martial Alliance.

He not only governed the entirety of Beijing, but also controlled the Martial Alliance of Xuanyuan Nation from behind the scenes. Although he was not the Grand Alliance Leader, he was the true Controller of the Martial Alliance. Sadly, Gao Xuan and the others had just called him an outsider with no right to interfere in the matters of the Jiang City Martial Alliance.

Thinking of this, cold shivers ran down the spines of Xiang Zuoming and Gao Xuan. They knew that their future prospects were definitely ruined, and should things go poorly, they might even lose their lives here.

That Li Tiegang also knelt down at this time, clasping his fist and saying, "I never imagined that Your Highness would be the Northern Border King, the true Controller of the Martial Alliance. I was wondering why Li Jingang would acknowledge you as his leader, but now it seems he truly chose the right person."

Ye Feng looked at him and smiled, saying, "You too ended up following the right person in the end, didn't you?"

Li Tiegang was taken aback, then realizing, laughed heartily, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your magnanimity. Not only did you forgive my previous ignorance and offense, but you also took me under your wing. From now on, I will follow you with unwavering loyalty!"

Ye Feng nodded slightly, then turned his gaze to Gao Xuan and the other two, Tong Qianqiu and Xiang Zuoming, and asked, "Now, do I not have the authority to question the affairs of the Jiang City Martial Alliance?"

Xiang Zuoming, shivering, said, "Of course, naturally, you do. As the founder of the Martial Alliance of Xuanyuan Nation, it's only natural that you have the authority to inquire. Earlier… earlier, we failed to see the greatness before us and offended the Northern Border King. We hope that the Northern Border King will be generous and spare us this once."

Ye Feng spoke leisurely, "If you had merely offended me, that would be one thing; after all, I am not a petty man. Do the three of you understand where you went wrong?"

Xiang Zuoming said through clenched teeth, "We were wrong because firstly, we offended you, the Northern Border King. Secondly, we did not dare to submit to the Jiangzuo Alliance. And thirdly, we should not have stood by when the Jiangzuo Alliance invaded, completely abandoning the Alliance's principles."

Ye Feng barked coldly, "Since you recognize your wrongs and your guilt, you should know what to do next, should you not?"

Xiang Zuoming, Gao Xuan, and Tong Qianqiu started begging for mercy once more.

"To possess martial skills without a speck of martial virtue, what use are such trash? Dispose of these three and expel them from the Martial Alliance!" commanded Ye Feng.

"As you command, Your Highness!" Xiao Chuanqi and Sima Zhantian immediately took action, crippling the meridians of the three men, and then they threw them out of the Jiang City Martial Alliance.

Only then did Ye Feng turn his attention to Li Tiegang, nodded and said, "This time, you pulled back from the brink in time, and you did well. The position of leader of the Jiang City Martial Alliance is currently vacant. You will temporarily take the role of acting leader. If you manage well for three months, then you can officially take over."

```

Li Tiegang was so excited that he stood transfixed on the spot, momentarily at a loss for words.

Seeing this, Li Jingang couldn't help but shout, "You blockhead, what are you still standing around for? Quickly thank the Leader for his kindness!"

"Yes, thank you, Leader, for your cultivation. I shall do my utmost as the Leader of the Jiang City Martial Alliance to uphold justice and fairness in the Martial Arts World!"

As Li Tiegang spoke, his tone shifted as he continued, "By the way, Leader, the Jiangzuo Alliance has amassed a great deal of wealth over the years, hidden within an underground chamber of a temple.

With the Jiangzuo Alliance leaderless at the moment, we should seize the opportunity to scoop them all up at once and take back that wealth, otherwise if we wait any longer, it would be too late as those beneath might become aware."

Ye Feng nodded and said, "You make a good point. In that case, you and Li Jingang will lead a team, with Xiao Chuanqi and Sima Zhantian also joining you. If you encounter any hidden grandmaster experts, deal with them on the spot.

As for the wealth accumulated by the Jiangzuo Alliance over the years, we will establish a foundation in East of the River in the future, and do our best to give back to the impoverished common folk there."

"Yes!" Several people quickly sprang into action.

Only then did Ye Feng look up and notice that the east had already lightened, signaling the approach of dawn. After a night's work, he couldn't help but feel a wave of fatigue wash over him.

He didn't continue to stay at the Martial Alliance; after all, with the likes of Xiang Zuoming having been expelled and rendered powerless, the Martial Alliance was currently in a state of disarray. Moreover, Hong Qingyan was still alone in the hotel.

Ye Feng walked out of the hall, sat in the car, and Xia Lengchan drove them straight back to the Jiang City Grand Hotel.

By the time they returned to the grand hotel, the sky was already bright, but as he got out of the car, Ye Feng suddenly felt an inexplicable stirring in his heart, as if a bad premonition was taking hold, causing him to frown slightly.

At his level of cultivation, the legendary Eighth Sense often proved to be very accurate and did not give rise to such unfounded feelings without reason. In other words, once such a bad premonition emerged, it usually meant something unfortunate was about to happen.

"What's wrong, Leader? Is there something bothering you?" Xia Lengchan asked, noticing Ye Feng's unusual demeanor.

Ye Feng waved it off without saying much and hurriedly quickened his pace to enter the lobby and rush into the elevator, with Xia Lengchan following closely behind without another word.

Once out of the elevator, Ye Feng dashed to the hotel room door and pushed it open to enter, but before he could check the bedroom, he already called out in a cold voice, "Damn it, something has indeed gone wrong!"

The moment he entered the lobby, Ye Feng noticed that the items had been tampered with carelessly, but more importantly, he could not sense Hong Qingyan's presence in the bedroom.

Ye Feng rushed over and pushed open the bedroom door, only to find it completely empty – Hong Qingyan was not in there.

"This... Where is Miss Hong? Wasn't she resting and sleeping in there before we left? Could it be..."

Xia Lengchan's expression changed drastically, and then she clenched her teeth and roared, "Someone dared to kidnap the Princess Consort; who is so tired of living? It must be the doing of the Tian and Lu Families!"

Ye Feng did not respond; his expression had turned utterly grave at that moment.

"Immediately call Li Jingang, Xiao Chuanqi, and the others, and have them gather all the members of the Jiang City Martial Alliance. Head to the Tian and Lu Families right away and take control of both families!"

"As you command, Leader!"

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Xia Lengchan immediately pulled out her phone to make the call. It was foreseeable that the whole Jiang City was on the verge of change and, at the very least, a major shakeup was about to hit the Tian and Lu Families.
