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

Luo Keque only entered after receiving permission. He came to Ye Feng and respectfully performed a salute before saying, "I apologize for disturbing Mr. Ye early in the morning, but it was a necessity. I hope Mr. Ye does not take offense."

Ye Feng inquired, "Has something happened to the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect?"

Luo Keque replied, "Not exactly the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect, but rather the Provincial City in the Southern River Region Jiangnan."

"The Provincial City in the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province?" Ye Feng raised an eyebrow and put down his chopsticks.

"It is like this. Late last night, an urgent message suddenly came from the Divine Doctor Sect in the Provincial City, stating that the elders of several major families, even including one or two heads of the big clans, have all suddenly contracted a strange illness." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"A strange illness? Is it that even the Divine Doctor Sect in the Provincial City has no solution?"

"None. This strange illness is quite rare, and they are at a loss in the Provincial City. Therefore, they issued a decree overnight to the Divine Doctor Sects in the several cities under them, ordering all high-level members of the Divine Doctor Sects to gather and go to the Provincial City for a consultation."

As Luo Keque spoke of this, he let out a bitter laugh and continued, "Although I possess some medical skills, they are merely superficial. If even the Provincial City is at a loss, my humble capabilities are likely of no help either. However, I suddenly thought of Mr. Ye..."

"It was already late last night, and I didn’t dare to disturb Mr. Ye’s rest, so I came early in the morning to make this request."

Ye Feng smiled and said, "You mean to say, you want me to accompany you to the Provincial City in the Southern River Region Jiangnan?"

Luo Keque replied, "Mr. Ye’s medical skills reach the sky. If Mr. Ye is willing to make a move, any strange diseases or rare poisons will naturally be trivial matters!"

Although his words contained some flattery, they were sincerely meant. After all, to his knowledge, within the entire Divine Doctor Sect, there were only a few who had reached the status of Huajin Grandmaster, and even fewer who could perform the Ancient Divine Needle Technique of Phoenix Returns to Heaven.

Ye Feng pondered for a moment and then said, "If that’s the case, I will accompany you to the Provincial City!"

Ye Feng had also planned to take a trip to the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province. Apart from needing to learn about the Jiang Family’s situation, there was also the Yin Family, which appeared to be subtly connected to the Gu&Poison Sect in the Southern Border. He was determined to investigate this thoroughly.

Luo Keque bowed deeply and thanked him, "Then I thank Mr. Ye. I will go back to the Divine Doctor Sect to make arrangements. Would Mr. Ye be so kind as to deign to visit the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect first and then we travel together by special car to the Provincial City?"

"Agreed," Ye Feng uttered just one word.

"Then I will wait respectfully for Mr. Ye at the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect!" Luo Keque said and after bowing once again, he left.

Throughout this period, Zhang Yuman and Hong Yuting watched everything. Seeing Luo Keque, a divine doctor with an immense reputation in Jiangdu, acting like a servant in their presence, they both felt a mix of complex emotions.

For a time, the dining room suddenly became quiet. Zhang Yuman wanted to say something to break the awkward silence, but she suddenly found herself feeling immense pressure even just standing before this young man in a wheelchair, let alone speaking.

As for Hong Yuting, she had thought that with her looks, she might gradually change Ye Feng’s opinion of her. After all, if Hong Qingyan, a girl with a limp, could do it, she felt she shouldn’t lose to Hong Qingyan. She had never been defeated before since she was young.

However, she was quickly proven very wrong, severely so. Throughout the period, Ye Feng didn’t even spare her a glance, treating her as if she were air.

This made Hong Yuting feel frustrated and at the same time, a deep sense of powerlessness!

Upon hearing the news, Hong Tianming hurried back from the company and said, "Son-in-law, are you going to the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province? Do you need me to accompany you, or should I ask Yuting to go with you? It would be more convenient for taking care of you."

Zhang Yuman finally saw an opportunity and said with a smile, "Yes, although Qingyan can take care of people, her leg is a hindrance, after all. It would be better to let Yuting go as well. She can take better care of you."

Hong Qingyan didn’t speak; she just pursed her lips into a pout.

Seeing her like this, Ye Feng couldn’t help joking, "Qingyan, what do you think?"

Hong Qingyan replied with annoyance, "I wouldn’t dare to make that decision for Big Brother Ye. After all, Big Brother Ye is now our family’s Frenzied Son-in-Law."

This little girl clearly seemed a bit angry and jealous.

Ye Feng laughed heartily and said, "What are you dawdling for? Aren’t you going to pack your luggage quickly?"

Hong Qingyan didn’t say a word and immediately scampered back to the Inner Courtyard.

Zhang Yuman asked, "So does our esteemed son-in-law mean that Yu Ting should also go? Should I have her pack right away?"

"No need, the weather has been quite hot these past few days, just let her stay wherever it’s cool," Ye Feng spoke indifferently.

A surge of annoyance rose in Zhang Yuman, as she habitually wanted to scold him—after all, in her view, her own daughter was a precious "gold branch and jade leaf," surely she wasn’t inferior to that adopted cripple?

But before she could speak, she was hastily pulled away by Hong Tianming.

Hong Qingyan quickly came out with a suitcase on wheels, which Seventeen took over, while Hong Qingyan pushed Ye Feng’s wheelchair.

Hong Yuting had been sitting silently the whole time, but seeing Ye Feng about to leave, she suddenly stood up and roared word by word, "Mr. Ye, listen well!"

"You’ve humiliated me in every possible way today, and even mud figures have a temper to lose, let alone a young lady of status. I know you have some abilities behind you, but don’t forget, you’re ultimately just a wheelchair-bound cripple, and the Provincial City of Southern River Region Jiangnan is not the same as Jiangdu!"

"You can be arrogant in Jiangdu without anyone affecting you, but do you think no one in the Southern River Region Jiangnan Province can deal with you? I assure you, the moment you step into Southern River Region Jiangnan, the Jiang Family will be the first not to let you off!"

Hong Tianming’s complexion changed drastically upon hearing these words, and he hurried forward to pull her away, but he was shaken off by Hong Yuting.

"Why are you stopping me? You all may fear this Frenzied Son-in-Law of the Hong Family, but I sure don’t. It’s nothing great if you don’t take me along; I can go to Southern River Region Jiangnan Province all the same. And then, I want to see for myself how this Mad Son-in-law of the Hong Family is going to die!"

Upon hearing this, Seventeen suddenly stopped, his entire body tensing up—an omen he displayed before taking action.

Ye Feng waved his hand casually and said, "If she wants to watch, then let her watch."

"Yes!" Seventeen nodded and resumed pulling the suitcase.

After getting into the vehicle, the three of them set off, circling around most of the city district before arriving at an ancient manor in the eastern suburbs.

The manor comprised old-style buildings, which had been refurbished and were exquisitely decorated.

Luo Keque was already waiting outside the gate. Seeing Ye Feng get out of the car, he approached quickly and said, "It’s truly an honor for Mr. Ye to condescend to visit the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect!"

Ye Feng waved his hand, "Let’s forego the pleasantries; let’s talk inside."

Luo Keque nodded and led the way, saying, "Mr. Ye, the Sect Master of the Qitian Gate heard that you would be visiting today and postponed his trip to the Provincial City. He is waiting in the hall."

Ye Feng asked, "Have you told him about my business?"

"I haven’t mentioned anything to the Lord of Qi!"

Luo Keque naturally knew that the other party was referring to the Phoenix Returns to Heaven Needle Technique. Sighing, he added, "The Lord of Qi usually holds himself in high regard. I seldom converse with him, and besides, without Mr. Ye’s permission, I wouldn’t dare to spread the news recklessly."

In truth, Luo Keque had his own ulterior motives for behaving this way; he hoped that this mysterious young man would have a direct confrontation with the Qitian Gate, preferably overpowering the Qitian Gate completely, so he could then naturally claim the position of Sect Master of the Divine Doctor Sect.

Of course, Ye Feng wasn’t blind to Luo Keque’s intentions, but he simply couldn’t be bothered to call him out on them.
