"You … don't mess around, I am the son of the Lan City Warrior Guild's Vice President!" Zheng Chenghu's face turned pale when he saw Xiao Chen looking at him.
"That's right, don't go overboard. I am the son of the Lan City Warrior Market's Second Shopkeeper. If you touch us, I can guarantee that you won't be able to leave Lan City!"
"Is that so?" Xiao Chen said coldly, "Have you ever thought that you were messing around? Did you not go overboard? Did you go overboard? I didn't do anything to you and only taught you a simple lesson. I didn't expect you to be so daring as to find people to gang up on me. Tell me, do you think I will let you go? "
"We are different from them. It is impossible that you do not know who we are, unless you want to form a death grudge with us!" Zheng Chenghu roared in a threatening manner.
"I have already contacted our elders. When they arrive, it will be the day of your death. If you obediently admit your mistake and leave Lan City, we will not pursue this matter …" Ma Jinhan suddenly felt confident.
"Oh?" In fact, Xiao Chen did not intend to do anything to Zheng Chenghu and Ma Jinhan. After all, their identities were different. Xiao Chen wanted to establish his authority and not offend all the forces in Lan City. He originally wanted to scare them, but he did not expect them to find people again!
Xiao Chen was very surprised that they would look for their parents when they could not win. He thought that the world of ordinary people was like this, but he did not expect the world of martial arts to be the same. However, this was not what Xiao Chen wanted to see. Although he was not afraid of trouble, he did not want to offend the people of the Warrior Guild.
If these people appeared and collectively chased him away, Xiao Chen would be in a difficult position.
However, since he had already done it, Xiao Chen could only take it one step at a time. This was not the time to give in, so Xiao Chen said coldly, "Do as you wish."
"White Fox, I think it's better to forget about this matter. Apologize, and I'll mediate. Otherwise, when the people from the Warrior Guild arrive and they issue a bounty, all the warriors will come to deal with you. No matter how powerful you are, you won't be able to walk out of Lan City alive …" Tan Jita said to Xiao Chen.
In fact, Tan Jita also knew that Xiao Chen had only beaten up Zheng Chenghu and Ma Jinhan. Even if their father came, he would at most scare Xiao Chen and teach him a lesson. As for issuing a bounty, that was absolutely impossible.
Although it was only released on Lan City's local platform, if anyone spread the news to the headquarters of the Warrior Guild or the Hong Consortium, they would not be able to get away with it. Of course, they might be stupid.
However, in Tan Jita's opinion, they were not idiots. So, it was better to scare Xiao Chen and get him to scram quickly.
Speaking of the devil, he arrived. The first to arrive was Ma Jinhan's father, Ma Youqian. As his name suggested, he was indeed very rich.
Soon after, another middle-aged man arrived. This person was Zheng Chenghu's father, Zheng Zhiba. Both of them were experts, but they did not make a move on Xiao Chen.
Ma Youqian glanced at Zheng Zhiba, waiting for him to make a decision. In fact, in Zheng Zhiba's heart, he already knew what happened. Previously, when Zheng Chenghu was looking for people, he understood that Zheng Chenghu was standing up for Tan Jita, but he didn't interfere. After all, Tan Muyou was also someone that he and Ma Youqian wanted to curry favor with!
The three of them could be said to be a small interest group. Tan Muyou was the leader, Zheng Zhiba was in charge of clearing up the connections, Ma Youqian was in charge of purchasing medicinal ingredients, and Tan Muyou was in charge of refining medicine. Refining medicine would cost money. With the few of them working together, they could swallow hundreds of millions of dirty money every year!
What was the most valuable thing in the Warrior's Market? It was not the medicinal ingredients, but the refined medicinal liquids and pills. Many of these things had a sky-high price. Tan Muyou used the medicinal ingredients that were normally lost to refine medicinal liquids and pills and sold them through Zheng Zhiba's channels to obtain huge profits.
In this, Tan Muyou was an indispensable link. Therefore, among the three of them, he had the final say and received the most money. As for Ma Youqian, who was in charge of purchasing medicinal ingredients in Lan City's Warrior's Market, he was also an indispensable link. This was because even if Tan Muyou wanted to take on private jobs and refine his own medicinal pills and liquids, he would not be able to buy enough raw materials.
Therefore, Ma Youqian's benefits came second. Although it was second, Ma Youqian was the richest. This was because from the purchasing process, he could earn a lot of commissions. Moreover, he could also get a lot of the pills and liquids.
Zheng Zhiba, in fact, took the least, and he also had to build up connections to get people to buy pills and medicinal liquids from him in private. However, this was a job that any martial artist with a bit of status and connections could do, so Zheng Zhiba did not complain.
However, outside, Zheng Zhiba and Ma Youqian were together, and Zheng Zhiba was still the leader. After all, Zheng Zhiba had a lot of connections and was the vice president of the Warrior's Guild. His status was slightly higher than Ma Youqian's.
"Who are you? I now suspect that you are a wanted criminal of the Warrior's Guild. You are wearing a mask and do not show your true face. I will request the Warrior's Guild's Law Enforcement Hall to verify your identity. " This Zheng Zhiba was obviously not a reckless person. He spoke and did things in a way that no one could refute. "Now, I will have to trouble you to return to the Warrior's Guild with us. Before we confirm your true identity, you are temporarily under our control! Of course, you can also choose to escape. That means that you have a guilty conscience. I will request the Warrior's Guild to put you on the national wanted list! "
This person was smarter than Chen Huanling! After all, he was the vice president of the Warrior's Guild in a big city. He was different from the one in Songning City. His speech was completely official. If Xiao Chen refused to comply, it would mean that there was something wrong with him. At that time, he would put him on the wanted list. Even if the wanted list was wrong, it would have nothing to do with him. He could totally say that this person wore a mask and refused to cooperate with the investigation.
However, Xiao Chen could not take off his mask. He did not want his identity to be exposed so quickly. For a moment, he was in a dilemma! If he followed Zheng Zhiba to the Warrior's Guild, who knew what would happen when he reached his territory. But if he did not go, Zheng Zhiba would probably put him on the wanted list.
Xiao Chen could not help but feel a sense of hostility. He wanted to kill Zheng Zhiba with his palm, but he held back in the end. But … what should he do now?
A smile flashed across Tan Jita's face. He looked coldly at Xiao Chen and secretly admired Zheng Zhiba. With just a few words, he had pushed Xiao Chen to a point where he did not know what to do!
In his opinion, it was already good enough to expel Xiao Chen from Lan City. But now, it would be too easy for him if he left. Now, he could not even leave even if he wanted to!
His view and vision were still not good enough. Look at how awesome Zheng Zhiba was. He had used his identity and power to the fullest. For a vice president of the Warrior's Guild to be able to do this, it was already pretty awesome.
Zheng Chenghu and Ma Jinhan also stood at the side and looked at Xiao Chen with a smug smile. Wasn't he acting cool just now? Is it okay now? You've put yourself in the trap of acting cool!
"Sigh, White Fox, I told you just now that you could leave after apologizing. But now … you see, the Warrior's Guild has intervened. I can't do anything about it!" Tan Jita sighed and pretended to be helpless as he said to Xiao Chen, "I advise you to obediently follow Vice President Zheng. Otherwise, it will not be fun if you become a wanted criminal!"
"Alright, Tan Jita. I'm sure you know better than me what happened today. You don't have to pretend anymore. What's the use of pretending now that things have come to this?" Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at Tan Jita.
Tan Jita felt a little awkward. Indeed, he was the one who arranged everything today. But now, Xiao Chen was right. What was the point of hiding now? There were only two paths in front of Xiao Chen. One was to obediently follow Zheng Zhiba back. But if he went back, he probably wouldn't be able to come out. In Zheng Zhiba's territory, it was too easy to kill someone! The other was to escape. With his strength, he could probably escape. But after he escaped, he would have to bear the consequences of never having a day of peace. He would become a wanted criminal. Even if he wore a mask, it would be useless. As long as the people from the Warrior's Guild's Law Enforcement Hall appeared and verified with the Shen Family, Shen Jingxuan and Shen Zhenghao wouldn't dare to hide Xiao Chen's true identity. When that time came, it would be easy to find him.
"That's right, White Fox. I admit that I'm the one who wants to target you. The reason is very simple. You don't know how to appreciate favors!" Tan Jita admitted it. He took a step forward and looked at Xiao Chen coldly. "You dare to fight with me over the woman I like? Don't you know that in the martial arts circle of Lan City, no one has ever dared to defy my will? Originally, I didn't want to kill you. As long as you leave obediently, not only will I not do anything to you, but I will also give you some cultivation herbs. But since you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, I have no other choice! "
"Hehe, it's good that you admit it." Xiao Chen took a deep breath and calculated in his heart. If there was no other way, he could only go to the Warrior's Guild first. On the way there, he would think of a way to contact Hong Zhu or Song Huawu and ask them to protect him! Based on their status, either of them would be able to settle this matter. "Tan Jita, it seems like your father isn't a good person either!"
"You're just a man who's about to die. You don't have to worry about this. You'd better worry about yourself!" Tan Jita sneered.
"The one wearing the mask, what are you waiting for? Come with us! "Zheng Zhiba said indifferently." Of course, you can also choose to escape! "
Xiao Chen knew that he had to make a decision …
However, just as Xiao Chen was hesitating and everyone else present thought that Xiao Chen was finished, a figure appeared beside Xiao Chen without any warning!
