Chapter 10

"Ah?" Shen Fei was taken aback, his innate curiosity flaring up as he urgently asked, "What's going on? Boss, tell me quickly." As he spoke, he looked at Shen Haofeng with eager anticipation.

Seeing Shen Fei's eager expression, Shen Haofeng calmly sat down, crossed his legs, and stretched his neck, muttering to himself, "Oh, I'm getting old, no good anymore. Why are my shoulders so sore?"

"Boss, if you have something, I'll do it for you." Shen Fei immediately fetched a chair and placed it behind Shen Haofeng, then stood up and started massaging his shoulders, asking anxiously, "Boss, tell me quickly!"

"Ah, that feels good, put more pressure on the left side." Shen Haofeng closed his eyes to enjoy it for a moment, then took a sip of tea and slowly said, "It's like this. Do you remember the time last month when I went out alone?"

"Remember, remember. You wouldn't tell me where you were going at the time. Boss, is the position of the leader of the Battle Hall team related to this?" Shen Fei nodded and asked hurriedly.

"Right, that's correct. That time, I was actually carrying out a secret order from the boss. I was... " Shen Haofeng was about to start telling the story when a cry came from outside the door, "Oh no! The Eight Tigers Gang is attacking!"

"What? The bastards from the Eight Tigers Gang actually dare to come here?" Shen Haofeng was furious, immediately jumping up and rushing out. Shen Fei, naturally, followed closely behind, excited and eager.

Rushing out of the main hall, they saw a group of black-clad men emerging from various parts of the branch, brandishing sticks and rushing towards the gate. Shen Haofeng roared, "Where are the bastards from the Eight Tigers Gang?" The black-clad men immediately lined up in front of him, awaiting orders.

"Chief! The Eight Tigers Gang is blocking the town gate." Someone shouted in response. The news of Shen Haofeng's appointment had spread throughout the branch, so everyone immediately addressed him as Chief.

"Head to the town gate." Shen Haofeng waved his hand and led a large group of men towards the town gate. However, when they reached the gate, he nearly stumbled, for Shen Fei, the little rascal, had already led a group of teenagers to the town gate, shouting and showing off.

"Chen Bahu, Chen Boss! Do you have any shame? You didn't even send a challenge letter and directly surrounded us, completely disregarding the code of the martial world!" Shen Fei, with one hand on his waist and the other pointing, shouted at the group of men outside the town gate.

A burly man, surrounded by a group of men, gritted his teeth in anger, wishing he could crush this arrogant little rascal, but considering the age and status, he could only wave his hand dismissively, "Brat, get lost! Call out your Tiger Might Branch Chief."

Shen Fei was about to say something when he was hit on the head. Turning around, he saw Shen Haofeng first scold, "Get out of the way!" and then mutter, "This little rascal, he's so quick." Seeing the situation outside, Shen Haofeng's expression turned serious, and he pulled Shen Fei behind him.

"I haven't had my fill of showing off yet," Shen Fei muttered, hiding behind his boss and silently said, "Activate." A map immediately appeared, showing dozens of red dots. Shen Fei couldn't help but sigh, "Red dots are indeed enemies."

"Chen Bahu, you're carrying bows and knives, are you prepared to fight to the death? Don't forget that gathering troops in public is considered rebellion. Even if your backer is in the government, it won't save you!" Shen Haofeng said sternly.

The burly man named Chen Bahu looked back at the dozen or so men behind him, dressed as hunters and carrying bows and axes, and feigned confusion, "Rebellion? What are you talking about, Shen Haofeng? They are just hunters and woodcutters from my Tiger Wind Town. The bows and axes are their tools for making a living, how can that be considered rebellion?" He glared and shouted, "I, Chen Bahu, the boss, don't have time to talk to a small leader. Call out your branch chief, Chen Chaojun."

"Chen Leader is now part of the main hall. I, Shen Haofeng, have been favored by the boss and am now the chief of the Tiger Nest Branch. If you have anything to say, say it to me." Shen Haofeng said calmly.

"You've become the chief?" Chen Bahu was surprised.

Hearing the formalities, Shen Fei, knowing that a fight might not happen, lost interest and focused on his map. His boss and the branch members were now green, probably because his boss had become the chief, and the branch members had automatically changed from blue allies to green members. The enemies, of course, were red. But why were there so many white dots?

Shen Fei looked around and found that the white dots were the idle people in the town who were watching the commotion from a distance. Could white dots be ordinary people with no stance?

While Shen Fei was thinking, he suddenly saw five red dots slowly leaving his display range. He was startled, "Wow! How did five enemies sneak into the town?"

Without thinking to inform his boss, believing he could earn a great merit, Shen Fei excitedly dove into the crowd and chased after the five red dots in the town.

Others didn't notice him, but Shen Yuxia, who had been watching Shen Fei, saw him running back and immediately grabbed his ear, "Brat, where are you going?"

"Ouch, Sister, I found enemies sneaking into the town," Shen Fei said excitedly in a low voice upon seeing his sister.

"What? Enemies sneaking in? How many?" Shen Yuxia frowned.

"Not many, only five," Shen Fei said casually, but his ear was pulled even harder, and he was scolded by his sister, "Brat! You want to catch five enemies alone? How dare you be so reckless!" Shen Yuxia, no matter how indulgent, wouldn't let him do such a dangerous thing.

"Hehe, but I have Sister, right? Sister, you're a Level 6 Warrior, right? Can we catch them together? This would be a great merit!" Shen Fei said with a grin.

"How do you know I'm a Level 6 Warrior?" Shen Yuxia asked curiously.

"Hehe, I naturally know Sister's strength. Sister must be hiding her strength because she's afraid Brother-in-law will feel embarrassed. Actually, Sister, you don't need to hide it. You should let Brother-in-law know you're stronger than him, so he won't dare to bully you in the future," Shen Fei said.

In Shen Fei's heart, only his sister was a true martial genius. A Level 6 Warrior at sixteen! Brother-in-law, who was always praised as a martial genius, was only a Level 5 Warrior at eighteen.

But Sister didn't like being surrounded by a crowd, whether it was praise or ridicule. Even the boss didn't know his daughter's strength, let alone the brother-in-law who thought he was a genius. Normally, everyone only knew that Sister was very capable when indulging and disciplining her brother, but they didn't know her strength was also formidable.

Thinking about it, the boss, as a father, was a failure for not knowing his children's strength. Shen Fei knew because he was close to his sister and noticed some special signs, like the ability to extinguish mosquitoes with finger wind, which only Level 5 Warriors and above could do.

Shen Yuxia patted Shen Fei's head, "Talking nonsense! We must immediately inform Father. The Eight Tigers Gang has several Level 8 Warriors. It might be these Level 8 Warriors who sneaked into the town." Her expression was already very serious, and she was about to turn to find Shen Haofeng.

"Ah, Sister, it can't be those Level 8 Warriors. I saw all the famous experts of the Eight Tigers Gang around Chen Bahu just now. They wouldn't send those experts to sneak into the town. It's fine, Sister. This is our territory. If anything goes wrong, a loud shout will bring help. Don't you want to catch these five intruders to give our newly appointed chief some face?" Shen Fei quickly said.

Shen Yuxia, who had been managing the household since a young age and possessed extraordinary skills, was naturally not weak. Thinking about what Shen Fei said, if she caught the five intruders, it would also give her newly appointed father some face.

Thinking about this, Shen Yuxia threw her stick, stretched her wrists, and smiled, "Great, finally a chance to experience real combat."

Seeing his sister's eyes shining, a deep memory surfaced in Shen Fei's mind, and he broke out in a cold sweat, saying hesitantly, "Sister, I still think it's unlikely that we two can catch five enemies. Should we call for more help?"

"Talking so much nonsense! If we delay, the enemies will escape. Tell me where they went!" Shen Yuxia glared.

Shen Fei shivered and immediately pointed in a direction, "They went that way. Oh, they actually sneaked into the branch?" He was surprised to see the five red dots appear in the branch on the map.

Shen Yuxia glanced at Shen Fei. She couldn't see the branch directly from here, so how did he know the enemies had gone there? But she didn't care about that, picked up Shen Fei, and leaped several meters towards the branch.

Back at the branch, the young men had all gone to the town gate, leaving only the servants at the entrance. Shen Yuxia asked, "Where did they go?"

Looking at the map, Shen Fei immediately said, "They've split up. Sister, follow me." He rushed towards the nearest red dot on the map.

Shen Yuxia looked at Shen Fei with some doubt. How did her brother know where the enemies were? Shaking her head, she quickly moved ahead of Shen Fei, fearing he might be harmed by the enemies.
