Silence!

The surroundings suddenly became completely silent!

A squad leader of a mid-level Yuanbing was killed in one move, which made all the city guards and those who were still alive shiver with fear. Even the other squad leader, who was also a mid-level Yuanbing, swallowed hard and dared not take another step forward!

Even Yao Yue himself was stunned!

He had never intended to kill anyone here; he just wanted to teach them a lesson out of anger and to test his own strength at the same time!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he drew his broken halberd and counterattacked with all his might, he killed his opponent.

This was far beyond his expectations!

"Murder! Murder! Come quickly, come quickly to kill the enemy!" The squad leader, regaining his senses, couldn't help but shout at the top of his lungs.

The civilians nearby who were about to enter or leave the city had already scattered, and the powerful imperial guards on the city walls finally ran down.

A squad of fifty soldiers, dressed in full armor, quickly blocked the city gate from both sides of the city wall.

These imperial guards were all at least mid-level Yuanbing in strength, with most of them reaching the upper-level Yuanbing. These were the official city guards.

Among them, a middle-aged city guard stepped forward with three other city guards, observing the situation.

This middle-aged city guard was the captain of this squad, Ma Pingtang, a cultivator at the mid-level Yuanshi stage. The three beside him were all at the lower-level Yuanshi stage.

Ma Pingtang frowned and coldly asked the squad leader, "What's going on here?"

"Sir, this beggar tried to force his way into the imperial city. We tried to stop him, but he refused to listen and even attacked and killed Yuan Si. Please, sir, arrest the murderer!" The squad leader knelt down and reported.

Ma Pingtang raised his eyebrows and then signaled to one of the people behind him. That person quickly went to the dead squad leader's body and began to examine it.

"Sir, he was indeed killed in one move!" That person turned back and reported to Ma Pingtang.

Ma Pingtang, upon hearing the answer, looked at Yao Yue, who was holding the broken halberd, and said coldly, "You, little beggar, are quite bold to cause trouble at the city gate. You really don't know the meaning of death. Men, kill him on the spot to set an example!"

As he spoke, over a dozen imperial guards immediately rushed over, intending to kill Yao Yue on the spot!

"I see who dares! I am Yao Yue, the son-in-law of the Dragon Manor!" Yao Yue, regaining his senses, shouted in alarm.

"If you were Yao Yue, we would all be Yao Yue. Arrest him!" Ma Pingtang, not believing Yao Yue's words, continued to give orders.

"Damn it, you will regret this!" Yao Yue cursed, not daring to resist and turned to run.

A wise man does not fight a losing battle; as long as there is life, there is hope!

Unfortunately, Yao Yue's luck was indeed too bad!

Just as he was about to run, a squad of Chasing Wind Riders happened to gallop in from outside the city, completely blocking his escape route.

The Chasing Wind Horses were the favorite steeds of all the princes and nobles. They were not only extremely durable but also as fast as the wind, providing a smooth and comfortable ride.

They were worth a fortune, not inferior to the value of a thousand-mile horse, and were all tributes from the Sand Wave Kingdom, known as the Horse Kingdom. Sometimes, they were even priceless.

These rarely seen Chasing Wind Riders were now galloping from far away outside the city.

Their speed was indeed as fast as the wind, and in the blink of an eye, they were at the city gate, raising a cloud of dust behind them!

Moreover, this squad of Chasing Wind Riders showed no signs of stopping, charging straight toward the city gate!

Seeing the surging Chasing Wind Riders, anyone who got in their way would be trampled to death!

Yao Yue wanted to dodge but had nowhere to go, as he was right at the entrance of the city gate, and the Chasing Wind Riders were charging in several rows.

The imperial guards inside the city gate also appeared panicked. Most of them were Yuanbing, not Yuanshi, and their strength was not enough to stop the impact of these Chasing Wind Riders.

Ma Pingtang and the few Yuanshi remained much calmer, and Ma Pingtang frowned, cursing in his heart, "These young masters and misses again, truly annoying!"

The Chasing Wind Riders were about to trample Yao Yue, but fortunately, they didn't dare to kill anyone directly in front of the imperial city.

Hiss!

A series of commands to stop sounded, and the Chasing Wind Horses reared up, stopping just a meter in front of Yao Yue.

Judging by their almost identical movements, it was clear that the owners of these Chasing Wind Horses had done this many times before.

The dust raised by the horses covered Yao Yue and the little monkey.

"Are you tired of living? How dare you block our way!" A delicate voice sounded from the back of a horse.

At the same time, a snake-like whip lashed down toward Yao Yue's face.

The speed of this attack was extremely fast, and the force was great. If he were hit, his skin would surely be torn.

Yao Yue, still in shock, could not avoid the whip.

Slap!

A fiery hot whip landed on his face, and the beautiful face, already covered with dirt and disheveled hair, now had a bloody mark. The blood slowly trickled down his cheek.

Yao Yue, holding his face, stared fixedly at the person above, his eyes filled with intense anger.

"What? You, little beggar, dare to resist in front of me?" The person on the horse raised the red whip and said disdainfully.

"Chunlan, why bother with such a nobody? It's beneath us!" A lazy voice sounded from the side.

"Third Brother, look at this beggar. What kind of person does he think he is to block our way? And this ugly monkey, how disgusting," the woman responded with disdain.

"Then just trample over him!" The man replied indifferently.

Both the man and the woman were dressed in splendid clothes, with an extraordinary demeanor, clearly not ordinary people!

Yao Yue recognized who they were, as they were also famous figures in the imperial city, known alongside him.

The Fool, the Mad, the Younger, and the Beauties!

The two in front of him were the notorious Zhu Fengbo, one of the Youngers, and Fang Chunlan, one of the Beauties.

Zhu Fengbo was notorious for his "evil" deeds, and his reputation for evil was well-known.

Zhu Fengbo's fame was due to three notorious deeds he had committed in the imperial city!

The first was when, at the age of thirteen, he had an affair with his father's thirteenth concubine. When his father found out, he beat him half to death, but later gave the thirteenth concubine to him as a concubine, effectively sharing her with his father; the second was when, at the age of fifteen, he wanted a talented woman to be his bed warmer. When she refused, he raped her in a tavern and then sent her to a brothel; the third was when, at the age of seventeen, to please the Third Prince, he personally killed a cousin who had offended the Third Prince.

These three deeds made Zhu Fengbo famous throughout the imperial city, and people feared him like a tiger. Beautiful women would avoid him at all costs, and within the Zhu family, everyone was terrified of him.

As for the Four Beauties of the imperial city, their fame was due to their beauty and the influence of their families. Ordinary women, no matter how beautiful, could not be ranked among the Four Beauties.

Fang Chunlan, being one of the Four Beauties, was indeed very beautiful. Her eyes, always filled with allure, and her slightly upturned red lips revealed her flirtatious nature. Many young masters and gentlemen were captivated by her.

Although she was not from one of the four major families, her father was a high-ranking official in the imperial city, holding the position of Deputy Minister of the Imperial Stables, responsible for the supply of horses and other livestock. Any military action requiring horses had to be approved by her father.

The Chasing Wind Horses they were riding were obtained from her father.

Zhu Fengbo was lecherous and domineering, while Fang Chunlan was beautiful but also spoiled and promiscuous. The two were a perfect match, often mixing together and engaging in debauchery.

This time, they had gone out to the countryside for a breath of fresh air and had engaged in some debauchery before returning.

However, it seemed that either Zhu Fengbo had been too debauched recently or Fang Chunlan's desires were too strong, as she had not been fully satisfied. When her path was blocked at the city gate, her spoiled and irritable nature erupted, and she lashed out at the unfortunate Yao Yue.

Zhu Fengbo's second statement revealed his evil nature, suggesting that Fang Chunlan ride over Yao Yue, treating commoners like grass.

Zhu Fengbo, at eighteen, had a mid-level Yuanshi cultivation. He was not particularly handsome, even somewhat ugly, with narrow eyes that always had a venomous look, and a mole on his upper lip with three hairs, making him look repulsive. He wore splendid clothes and carried a sword, displaying the power of a major family.

Fang Chunlan was indeed as beautiful as a flower, living up to her reputation as one of the Four Beauties. Her eyes, filled with allure, and her slightly upturned red lips revealed her flirtatious nature. She wore a translucent silk dress that accentuated her full figure, with a deep cleavage that was very alluring, making it hard for anyone to resist!

Fang Chunlan, excited by Zhu Fengbo's words, clapped her hands and said, "Great, great! Let's trample him to death and see who dares to block our way again!"

Just as she was about to ride over Yao Yue, the little monkey on Yao Yue's shoulder moved first.
