"I was wondering who was gracing us with their presence, turns out it’s the famous Captain Song!"
Nanyuan Shiran was very busy.
He had just dealt with a group of ants, and more ants sprang up after them.
Nanyuan Shiran looked down on the rabble behind Song Zhenrong, but he was very interested in Song Zhenrong himself.
The foolish Underworld Captain of Thunder City, he was quite curious to test how skilled this guy was!
So, when Song Zhenrong brought a large group to the gate of the Nanyuan Family, he was the first to greet them.
"It’s Nanyuan Shiran!"
"The chief protector of the Nanyuan Family!"
"He’s waiting with the Nanyuan Family at the gate for us!"
"It’s only natural; with so many of us coming, the Nanyuan Family should have noticed long ago!"
"So what if they’ve noticed! We have Captain Song with us!"
The voices behind them rose and fell, but the footsteps all came to a halt.
Just the name, Nanyuan Shiran, was enough to intimidate most of those present.
The rest, like Song Zhenrong, were all outsiders.
Song Zhenrong initially did not know who this person was, but upon hearing the people’s discussions behind him, he understood and greeted him with a smile.
"Captain Shiran!"
The two of them emerged from their respective groups and stood face to face, secretly assessing each other.
"I’ve heard of Captain Song’s great name, and seeing him today, he is indeed extraordinary! If in another scenario, we might sit down and have a drink together. But under these circumstances, I must ask Captain Song, what is the meaning of this?"
Although both held the title of Captain, there was a difference between captains.
Song Zhenrong, having fled Thunder City, his status as a foolish Underworld was not as useful now.
Slightly cupping his fists, Song Zhenrong said.
"Captain Shiran, to be honest, I came here to see Divine Doctor Ding. Although she has joined your Nanyuan Family as a Guest Elder, it’s always harmless for friends to visit one another, right?"
Nanyuan Shiran laughed.
"If that’s all, naturally, there’s no harm. But..."
He prolonged his voice, casting a meaningful glance at the large group behind Song Zhenrong.
"Captain Song, we of the Nanyuan Family welcome friends, but we absolutely do not welcome provocateurs. Some rules might be commonplace in your Thunder City, but in our Da Liang City, actions like yours are called... demonstrations!"
Song Zhenrong hurriedly waved his hands:"No! We have no such intention, I..."
Whoosh!!
Before Song Zhenrong could finish speaking, a hidden weapon suddenly shot out from the crowd behind him, straight towards Nanyuan Shiran’s face!
Song Zhenrong’s expression immediately changed, while Nanyuan Shiran faced it with a smile, his expression unchanged.
"Watch out!"
Smack!
Suddenly reaching out, Song Zhenrong intercepted the hidden weapon halfway even with his back turned to it!
Whoosh——
The ensuing forceful breeze blew Nanyuan Shiran’s hair to both sides, revealing his rather amused smile.
"Captain Song has made a move!"
"Overthrow the Nanyuan Family! Rescue Divine Doctor Ding!"
"Charge!"
The crowd immediately grew restless.
Luckily, it was just slogans; no one dared to act as the vanguard at that moment.
The prestige the Nanyuan Family accumulated in Da Liang City, though not as much as the now-destroyed Lin Family, was nonetheless formidable — no one dared to act rashly.
At that moment, Nanyuan Shiran and Song Zhenrong looked simultaneously at the hidden weapon.
It was a flying knife; just from the flying knife, nothing seemed unusual.
However, from Song Zhenrong’s careful inspection of the knife, Nanyuan Shiran discerned something.
The flying knife itself was not special.
But its power was immense!
Throughout Da Liang City, only a handful of people possessed such skill in hidden weapons and could throw such a knife!
Who could it be?
Nanyuan Shiran pondered, his eyes sweeping over the crowd behind Song Zhenrong.
However, the target this time was highly adept at concealment, and with more people this time, even after scanning the crowd, Nanyuan Shiran did not find the target.
"It’s not me..."
Song Zhenrong was still explaining to Nanyuan Shiran, but Nanyuan Shiran merely smiled, placed his hand on his shoulder, and then strode past him... heading towards the crowd!
"What are you going to do?!"
Song Zhenrong’s expression changed.
Following Nanyuan Shiran’s actions, members of the Nanyuan Family’s protection team followed suit, moving past Song Zhenrong, brandishing weapons, and confronting the crowd.
"They have nothing to do with this!" Song Zhenrong shouted!
But whether they had anything to do with it was no longer for Song Zhenrong to say.
"What are you going to do..."
The people at the front instinctively wanted to retreat, but the way back was blocked by the crowd, leaving them no escape!
Only now did they begin to feel fear, but it was too late.
The silent approach of the Nanyuan Family’s protection team, like a beast gradually showing its fangs, was something inherently terrifying!
But those at the back of the crowd didn’t think so.
"The Nanyuan Family detained Divine Doctor Ding inside the mansion to monopolize the antidote! What are their true intentions! Where is their conscience!"
"Da Liang City doesn’t belong to your Nanyuan Family! Just because the Lin Family has fallen, doesn’t mean your Nanyuan Family can dominate alone!"
"Release Divine Doctor Ding! We need Divine Doctor Ding!"
The voices grew from weak to strong, forming a momentum.
It seemed as though the louder they shouted, the more it emboldened them, giving them the courage to confront a big family like the Nanyuan Family.
But Song Zhenrong understood that this was useless.
As if realizing something, he hurriedly approached Nanyuan Shiran.
"Don’t!"
Song Zhenrong shouted, and with a smack, he pressed his hand on the back of Nanyuan Shiran’s hand, just as he was about to draw his sword.
