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

The next day, Liang Chenghuan from the Liang Family arrived at the hotel early to wait.

Just the night before, not only were the various businesses of the Liang Family attacked, but even the old Liang estate suffered an assault by masked experts. Without the protection of a Great Grandmaster, it was imaginable how devastating the losses were when the Liang Family faced such sudden and formidable enemies.

The first to bear the brunt was the "Little Madman" Liang Chengyu, who was dismembered on his own turf and died a gruesome death. The majority of his family also perished, while those who survived were scared out of their wits.

If it hadn't been for Liang Chenghuan going to the Supervisory Heaven Department to help someone and staying out all night, he'd probably have not escaped disaster either. As it was, he didn't dare to even visit his home this morning, and came rushing to find Ye Feng, trembling in fear.

After listening to Liang Chenghuan's account, Ye Feng's expression was somewhat strange.

The kid's life was indeed quite tough. He had spared him once in Jiangdu, and unexpectedly, Liang Chenghuan managed to escape the catastrophe that befell his family the previous night.

"General Ye, please save me," Liang Chenghuan begged.

He was truly frightened, his whole journey marked by fear and apprehension.

"Your Liang Family has also perished because of me. How is it that before asking for my help, you shouldn't hate me first?" asked Ye Feng, sitting on the sofa.

Compared to the "Little Madman" Liang Chengyu, Liang Chenghuan may not be very clever, but when it came to understanding the situation, he was far superior, now kneeling on the ground with all his heart.

Begging someone was showing the right attitude.

"Chenghuan dares not. The Liang Family tried to plot against General Ye, and it's our just desserts," he said.

It was only called just desserts after a failure. If it had been successful, it would have been glorified.

Ultimately, it was a matter of victors and losers. Liang Chenghuan's face was filled with despair, and he didn't dare lower his head too much for fear that Ye Feng might see a trace of resentment on his face.

"No, of course, you dare," Ye Feng retorted.

"Otherwise, why did you still go to Jiangdu knowing it was me and knew the true meaning behind the Sha Family Gang and the Fallen Leaves Commerce Guild?"

What a way to pin the blame!

Hong Qingyan turned her face away quietly, trying not to laugh out loud, knowing full well that Liang Chenghuan wasn't bold enough. But Ye Feng said he dared.

Would the Liang Chenghuan on the ground dare to say he didn't?

Intimidation!

Sure enough, after hearing this, Liang Chenghuan's face went blank. After pausing, he then spoke with a panicked face, "General Ye, I was confused for a moment. Please forgive me this time."

With those words, Liang Chenghuan began to kowtow on the ground.

"Get lost, you don't have enough lives for me to spare," said Ye Feng.

"People need to save themselves. Before asking me for help, ask yourself, what does the person who wants to kill you really want? Just understand that for yourself," Ye Feng's gaze grew colder.

Understood!

Seeing Ye Feng's determined attitude, Liang Chenghuan didn't waste more words and left the room disheartened. When a mighty force falls, the greedy wolves and leopards come to feast.

This was the law of survival in the Great Northern Su.

Liang Chenghuan felt incredibly bitter inside. Ye Feng was unwilling to save him but pointed out a path for him. The Liang Family's decline was inevitable, but its ruin came unexpectedly fast.

Indeed, what a "harmonious" high-society.

"Why not save him a little?"

Once Liang Chenghuan had left, Hong Qingyan turned around and asked with curiosity.

Not to mention saving Liang Chenghuan, even allowing the Liang Family to rise again wouldn't have been difficult for Ye Feng, but Hong Qingyan didn't understand why he refused. Such opportunities to win people's hearts and demonstrate benevolence to the world were rare.

"I'm afraid it will chill your heart, but as the Northern Border King,

I don't need to demonstrate mercy to the world," said Ye Feng.

These words indeed made Hong Qingyan's expression stiffen momentarily before Ye Feng hurriedly stood up and gently embraced her by the waist.

"Grandfather said a lot of blood was shed in the Northern Border. Perhaps I still don't understand that place, so you need not worry about me," Hong Qingyan said softly, nestled in Ye Feng's arms.

"Soon you will understand the Northern Border,"

"Trust me, once you get to know the Northern Border, you'll come to love it there," Ye Feng assured her.

In this world, the fragrance of a woman is truly intoxicating.

Ye Feng held the beauty in his arms and didn't speak anymore, wondering what expression those bastards back home would have when he brought Hong Qingyan with him.

"My king, I've made a breakthrough," exclaimed Sima Zhantian, the moment he got into the car, clearly exhilarated.

"Just right!" was all Ye Feng said, his brief words carrying significant depth.

In fact, from the moment he had seen Sima Zhantian coming out of the elevator, he had sensed the change in the latter's aura.

If the aura of a Grandmaster was as erratic as the clouds in the sky, the aura of a Martial King should be like that ancient pool of a thousand years, deep enough to take one's breath away.

"Congratulations, Captain Zhan Tian!"

Xia Lengchan chimed in when it was appropriate, feeling quite proud inwardly, since the big man would no longer have any grounds to spar with her.

"Well done!"

"When there's a chance in the future, let's have a spar," Xiao Chuanqi told Sima Zhantian with a somewhat sinister smile.

"Good!" Sima Zhantian agreed without hesitation.

...

An hour later, the group arrived at the Xu Family.

The news that Ye Feng was visiting had everyone in the Xu Family from top to bottom scared witless, as it was uncertain whether the Great General's intentions were good or bad.

You just couldn't guess!

Su Ping, who was Xu Tiefeng's wife, personally came out to greet them. Enjoy exclusive content from My Virtual Library Empire

Nowadays, besides Xu Tiefeng and Su Ping, there really weren't any other family members in the Xu Family. The relatives from General Xu's generation had all withered away in the wars of the last century.

A North Wind blew through, making the large villa estate seem all the more desolate. Ye Feng chatted idly as he followed Su Ping into the main hall.

It was clear to see that the wife of the descendant of the Great General didn't have a single piece of decent jewelry on her. This wasn't about displaying integrity but truly being in a rough spot.

Furthermore, Su Ping's face always bore an indelible sadness, making a woman in her fifties or sixties look as if her face were full of wrinkles.

"Auntie, are you related to Su Yu, the Leader of the Martial Alliance in Su City?" Ye Feng casually asked.

"Ah! What do you mean, General?" Su Ping's expression became tense immediately.

"Auntie, no need to be nervous, I was just asking casually."

Ye Feng said helplessly, really wanting to ask, am I that frightening?

"Su Yu is my cousin."

Su Ping lowered her head, not daring to look into Ye Feng's eyes.

Really!

Ye Feng smiled without saying anything and then said, "Auntie, please lead the way. Take me to see the descendants of General Xu."

There's really nothing much to see in the Xu family.

The reason he had decided to visit the Xu family in person was, of course, to make an appearance for those who were secretly watching the Xu family, and also to see if Xu Tiefeng was worth him taking action.

"Okay!"

Su Ping did not refuse.

After passing through two separate courtyards, Ye Feng was led to a quiet little courtyard where he immediately smelled a strong scent of medicine.

It was good medicine!

But looking at the formula, Ye Feng frowned slightly. The old fellow still said that Xu Tierui had some conscience, what bullshit conscience.

"Pingping, who's there? Little Yuan, go open the door."

A weak voice came from inside the house, accompanied by the sound of a child running.

Creak! The door slowly opened, revealing a little head.

"Grandma, why are you here? I've just fed Grandpa his medicine."

The little boy glanced at Ye Feng, full of curiosity.

"This big brother has come to visit your grandfather, Little Yuan, go and greet him."

"Hello, big brother!"

The little boy greeted Ye Feng earnestly.

"Little brother, what's your name?"

Ye Feng bent down and gently touched the little boy's head.

For some reason, on this little boy, Ye Feng suddenly saw something unique that belonged to those people in that small mountain village in the Northwest.

"Xu Liuyuan."

Okay then!

Ye Feng suddenly laughed, thinking how fitting the name was to that place. Could it be destiny?

"Nice name."

Ye Feng stood up and looked towards the house.

"Little Yuan, go out and play somewhere else."

Seeing that Ye Feng did not make things difficult for Xu Liuyuan, Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it General Ye?"

"I can't rise to receive you due to illness, and it's truly embarrassing to have the General visit in person."

The furnishings in the room were very simple, just a set of basic furniture and a reclining chair. Beyond that, there was nothing else. On the bed lay a man as thin as a rake, an "old man."

The reason for calling him an old man was not that he was very old, but that he appeared that old. Without a doubt, he was Xu Tiefeng himself.

"Uncle Xu is being too courteous."

Ye Feng approached the bed, looking at Xu Tiefeng and inwardly sighing.

A man not even sixty years old looked like he was eighty, his face full of wrinkles, utterly void of any color.

"Please have a seat, General. To what do I owe this visit?"

Xu Tiefeng's gaze toward Ye Feng was full of entreaty.

"The matter concerning Xu Tierui,"

Ye Feng said, deliberately pausing.

"I heard about it this morning."

Xu Tiefeng's response was calm and simple, leaving no follow-up.

"Just taking a look!"

Ye Feng grinned.

Xu Tiefeng's response was somewhat unexpected to him. Perhaps the man on the bed already knew that his suffering was courtesy of Xu Tierui.

"Thank you, General Ye!"

Xu Tiefeng sincerely thanked him, seeing that Ye Feng bore no killing intent.

"What's there to thank? Rewards for rewards, punishments for punishments. You haven't done anything wrong, why would I take my anger out on you?"

Ye Feng shook his head.

He really wanted to say he wasn't that scary, and it wasn't necessary for everyone to be so cautious around him.

"What about Xu Liuyuan?"

Su Ping, who was cleaning the courtyard, let her broomstick drop to the ground with a "clatter."

"He was adopted, if General Ye doesn't believe me, you can investigate."

Xu Tiefeng's tone turned more serious.

"No need to be nervous, even if he was the child of those two, I wouldn't harm him."

"But, aren't you afraid history will repeat itself?"

This question was, of course, directed at the little boy who had left.

"I'm not afraid!"

"Anyway, I'm a descendant of the Great General. Phrases like 'once bitten, twice shy' do not apply to me. If worst comes to worst, a person dies and their soul ascends to heaven. Honestly, I don't think I have much longer to live anyway."

After a moment of impassioned talk, Xu Tiefeng ended up coughing out some blood.

"Uncle, you are quite unconstrained. However, that reasoning doesn't seem to hold up now, does it?"

Ye Feng turned and looked at Xu Tiefeng seriously.

"I wanted a child."

Su Ping came in and interjected, her voice breaking with emotion.

Okay then!

So it was just that simple. Ye Feng nodded at Su Ping, understanding the unwavering sorrow etched on her face.
