Chapter 498: 498

Feng Wei’s big eyes seemed to show that she was being disturbed . She wanted to pretend that she hadn’t heard anything, but the guy had come up to them, so she had to put her hand on the table .

“Peng Ying, what’s up?”

Feng Wei sounded cold, but Peng Ying didn’t seem to perceive it .

“The Flying Dragon Dynasty is going to recruit generals . Let’s take part in it together . I have lots of information . “

He intended to sit down as he spoke, but the table was already full .

He rolled his eyes, and then pointing at Jiang Chen, he said impolitely, “Give me your seat . “

It didn’t take long for him to see through Jiang Chen’s abjection, and he noticed that Jiang Chen wasn’t with Feng Wei . He actually wasn’t as careless as he seemed .

Jiang Chen looked over . His face still looked like a kid, but he was already an adult who was over 20 years old .

While Jiang Chen was looking at him, he smiled provocatively .

“Peng Ying, this apprentice brother sat here first . We came after . How could you be so rude?!” Feng Wei said unhappily .

What she had said made those at table pale . They hurried to signal to her secretly .

However, it had already been spoken out loud . Upon seeing Feng Wei act so emotionally, Peng Ying had a complicated expression .

“Didn’t you hear me?”

He suddenly launched an attack . He reached a hand out for Jiang Chen’s clothes, intending to grab him by the throat .

No matter what he had wanted to do, when his hand approached Jiang Chen, all of his intentions were frustrated .

“I heard you, but I won’t give you my seat . Get away!”

Jiang Chen raised his skinny arm to chest height . His hand was bony, with long and slim fingers . It grasped Peng Ying’s hand tightly .

Peng Ying was obviously unwilling to admit defeat . Three silver fight loops could be seem on his sleeve .

But Jiang Chen had none .

Peng Ying built up power . The two ends of the board under his feet curled up . In the end, it broke in half from the middle .

Powerful energy kept gathering in his right hand . However, no matter how hard he tried, all the energy vanished like a stone sank in the sea . He still couldn’t move his hand .

Even if he had used pliers, he wouldn’t have managed to free himself from it .

Jiang Chen’s action seemed to be effortless . He was just sitting there in an easy and comfortable manner . His thin figure showed dreadful power .

“Get away!”

Jiang Chen suddenly lost interest . He flung with effort and Peng Ying flew by the table and out of the window .

This was beyond everyone’s expectations . Peng Ying failed to steady himself in the air in time and fell on the crowd in the street in the end, causing lots of injuries .

“What strong power!”

Feng Wei and the others were amazed to see Jiang Chen throw a guy with silver fight loops out so easily . They totally changed their disdainful attitudes .

Although Peng Ying only had three silver fight loops, he was rather strong, and he had even gained some fame in the Middle State .

Soon, the wooden wall that the window was in was broken . Peng Ying returned in anger, staring at Jiang Chen in a vicious manner .

There was a striking bruise on his right wrist .

“What’s going on here?!”

Footsteps could be heard when the fight was about to start . Several people were walking as one in synchronized steps .

A team of well-armed soldiers came into the sight of the people on the second floor .

At a single glance, Jiang Chen knew these soldiers were different from those of the Lonely Moon City . Their energies were stronger, their looks sharper .

Frowning, they were approaching like a dark cloud .

This is a team that’s been toughened by wars, Jiang Chen thought to himself .

“Who’s making trouble here?” the captain of the team shouted, laying his eyes on Jiang Chen and Peng Ying . Then he ordered his team to surround the two and Feng Wei and the others .

“Explain,” the captain said, rejecting any disapproval .

Peng Ying, burning with anger, calmed down as soon as he saw them . He tried to speak, his voice faltering, but he couldn’t say a word .

Jiang Chen didn’t bother to speak, either . He only said calmly, “It could be explained with more clarity by a bystander . “

“Just answer the question!” a soldier scolded .

The captain threw his subordinate a look, which made him pale immediately . He hurried to step back .

“You, tell me what happened,” the captain asked one of the customers on the second floor .

The man cursed to himself . He obviously didn’t want to get himself into trouble, especially after recognizing Peng Ying .

However, under the captain’s gaze, he had no other choice but to brace himself to tell the captain what had happened .

There was actually not much to tell, since Peng Ying had launched the attack right after saying something to Jiang Chen .

“Take him away!” the captain ordered .

The soldiers behind him dashed over to grab Peng Ying by the arm .

Peng Ying wanted to fight back, but he was given a good scare by the captain’s cold look .

“There’s only one rule in the Sword Master City these days—anyone who picks a fight will be forbidden to enter the city . “

It was hard to tell whether the captain was speaking to Peng Ying or everyone watching . He gave Jiang Chen a look before leaving .

“We’ve got trouble . We’ve got trouble . “

After Peng Ying had been taken away, the witness, pulling a long face, looked at Jiang Chen in a blaming manner .

“You… isn’t it enough that you alone have bad luck? Do you have to drag others down with you?” he said, annoyed .

His friends hurried to come over and stop him .

“Are you crazy?”

“He flung Peng Ying out of the window!”

“It’ll be a piece of cake for him to deal with you . “

His friends’ warnings reminded him that Jiang Chen wasn’t a pushover, either . However, the one backing Peng Ying up was more difficult to deal with . He left in anger .

“Apprentice brother, I’m really sorry . ” Feng Wei felt guilty, too . Although Jiang Chen hadn’t suffered any losses, he had gotten himself into big trouble .

Jiang Chen was surprised as well, since it was the first time that he had received such fair treatment .

He had thought those soldiers would have taken him away .

“Does Peng Ying have a great background?” asked curiously Jiang Chen .

“His sister, Peng Lan, has golden fight loops . She’s a direct disciple of the Infinite Sword School . She and Li Yaqin from the Tai Yue School are called the Double Heroines,” someone beside Feng Wei explained to him, gazing at him with pity .

“The thing is, Peng Lan tends to cover up her brother’s mistakes . She does that a lot . Although Peng Ying is annoying, I can’t refuse him directly,” Feng Wei said nervously .

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders . As if it was no big deal, he said, “It’s good that we don’t know each other’s names . You don’t have to worry about me . “

Then he stood up, ready to leave .

He wasn’t afraid of people with golden fight loops, but he wasn’t stupid enough to wait for them there .

“This guy doesn’t worry about anything, does he?”

“I guess he doesn’t know how strong Peng Lan is . “

“Probably . He was too calm when he heard Peng Lan’s name . “

“Ignorant people fear nothing . “

The discussion of her friends upset Feng Wei a lot . She gazed at Jiang Chen’s receding back, and a streak of worry showed in her big, bright eyes .
