The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

These three individuals, with the leader being someone Ye Feng had seen before—just over a week earlier on the big screen in the Seventh Layer Heaven—the Sword Emperor Commander! He was the strongest warrior just under the Second God within Luoying, at the Half-step Divine Realm.

The other two, one was an old man with white hair and a benevolent face. He was one of the four Commanders, the Ninja Emperor, from the same sect as Liu Ying, whom Ye Feng had slain.

With Liu Ying dead, the Ninja Emperor was now the strongest ninja in Dragon Country.

The third individual was a hulking man covered in muscles, sporting purple gold gauntlets on both hands, radiating a powerful Blood Qi. Standing in the middle of the area, he was like a massive furnace.

This man was none other than one of the four Commanders of Luoying, the Fist Emperor.

With the four Commanders gathered once again, Ye Feng also concealed his own aura.

He decided against continuing the fight with the Sword Saint Commander, knowing full well he could defeat the Sword Emperor Commander and the rest, but engaging them would alarm the Second God.

The Second God was a Divine Realm powerhouse, and even though Ye Feng had the Heaven Slaying Battle Technique and the Heaven Slaying God Sword within the Execution Ring, he was not absolutely certain he could defeat the Second God and his cohorts.

Thus, now was not the time for a final battle. Ye Feng had no choice but to exercise patience.

The Sword Emperor Commander revealed a look of anger in his eyes, "What are you two doing! Don't you know that those above the position of the Seven-Colored Envoy are not allowed to fight in private? Even to fight on the Life and Death Platform requires the permission of at least three Commanders. Are you two trying to disregard the rules within Luoying?"

Ye Feng looked coldly at the Sword Emperor Commander without a word, while the Flame Envoy spoke up, "Sword Emperor Sir, Ye Feng has only joined us within Luoying for less than a month, so he's not familiar with the rules. Please forgive him."

The Sword Emperor Commander nodded, "Fine, Ye Feng, remember this: no fighting in private for those above the position of Envoy. Since you've just joined Luoying, I'll let today's incident slide. Don't let it happen again, understood?"

Ye Feng merely nodded indifferently and kept silent.

The Sword Emperor Commander let the matter go, knowing full well that a prodigy like Ye Feng had his own pride. It would take time to shape and mold him, and his current behavior was expected.

Then, the Sword Emperor Commander turned to the Sword Saint Commander, "And you, as a Commander engaging in private combat, if it were merely a friendly spar, that would be one thing, but what were you doing just now? Trying to play with life and death?"

The Sword Saint Commander immediately showed an embarrassed smile, "Big Brother Sword Emperor, I was just too impulsive. I saw our dear sister Storm Envoy being bullied and couldn't help but react hastily. Rest assured, I won't dare to do so again. If I repeat it, feel free to punish me!"

Seeing the Sword Saint Commander behaving so pitifully, the Sword Emperor Commander didn't feel like getting angry.

The Sword Emperor Commander said, "This time, I've summoned you all to discuss the martial arts tournament. I hope that in five days, the preparation for the tournament can be ready to start on schedule, without any issues, correct?"

The Storm Envoy nodded, "No problem, we've already started constructing the venue, and as for supplies and the registration of participants, we can start today. Please rest assured, Big Brother Sword Emperor!"

The Storm Envoy was once one of the four Commanders as well, so her calling Sword Emperor 'big brother' was fitting.

Among all the legendary powerhouses in the Nine-layered Heaven, only the Storm Envoy had the right to do so.

Anyone else who dared to call the Sword Emperor 'big brother' instead of 'Sir' would face severe punishment.

The Sword Emperor Commander continued, "Besides that, there's another purpose for calling you here. Let me inform you so you can prepare. A new force named Alien Shadow has recently emerged in Dragon Country. Although not a formidable force, their leader is a Superpower User, whose strength is comparable to Legendary Great Perfection.

Now that Luoying Lord has revived, we only lack the spiritual power of a Superpower User. The top ten from the martial arts tournament will join forces to eradicate Alien Shadow and bring the head of their leader to us in Luoying. This will be a tough battle, overseen by a Commander and the champion. If successful, you may each choose an item from Luoying's treasury!"

"Choose an item!" The eyes of the envoys gleamed with excitement and eagerness.

Even Ye Feng showed keen interest. Luoying was one of the strongest evil forces he had encountered since joining the battle zone of Dragon Country, becoming a warrior.

Even Ye Feng was curious about what treasures lay within Luoying's vault.

After all, Luoying had even brought out the Creation Fruit.

"Alright, now that it's settled, you all may work on the assignments," said the Sword Emperor Commander.

Before long, the tasks were delegated. Since Ye Feng was a newcomer, his assignment was simple: to manage the venue's arrangements.

The Sword Emperor Commander concluded, "Okay, that's all for today's matter. Everyone can disperse now."

Everyone left, and Ye Feng turned to leave as well.

Just as Ye Feng was about to turn away, he felt a chill run down his spine, and he immediately spun around.

A burst of Sword Qi swept toward his back, and while Ye Feng managed to dodge swiftly, he was a fraction slow—the Sword Qi cut through his clothes, leaving behind a small trail of blood.

The source of the Sword Qi was none other than the Sword Saint Commander.

Ye Feng erupted in fury, "Bastard, you're courting death!"

Ye Feng's roar alerted everyone, and the Sword Emperor Commander was instantly enraged, "Sword Saint, what the hell are you doing? Didn't I say no more fighting? Did you disregard my words?"

Ye Feng's expression darkened to the extreme, incredibly ugly to behold.

Yet, the Sword Saint Commander wore that same smug look, "Oops, my apologies, Ye Feng. I forgot to mention that my sword must taste blood when unsheathed; otherwise, withdrawing it causes backlash against me. I had no choice. Besides, it's just a tiny wound—it's nothing serious, so don't take it to heart.

I didn't mean to kill you. Of course, if you're not satisfied, you can challenge me to a duel to the death on the Life and Death Platform. After all, we four Commanders are all here!"
