"Right hand!"
"No, chop off both hands."
Ximen Ziling had wanted to chop off his right hand, but she felt that it was not enough to vent her anger, so she simply asked for both of his hands to be chopped off. She thought that he had not only flirted with her, but also with her sister. This kind of hooligan had to have both hands chopped off.
"Alright!"
Hong Tianfang agreed, and a scale suddenly flew out of the red scale armor he was wearing. A red light flashed, and then a scream was heard. Looking at Young Master Huo, both of his hands were chopped off at the wrist. His legs went weak, and he knelt on the street, blood flowing out uncontrollably. His scream was really miserable.
"Good, well done!"
"Punish the hooligan, long live the Red Feather Army!"
The neighbors, especially those who had been bullied by Young Master Huo. After seeing his bad luck, they all shouted slogans. Seeing this scene, Huo Gangwu knew that he could only swallow his broken teeth. If he dared to report this to the City Lord, he would only be reprimanded.
The Red Feather Army was originally to protect the family of the City Lord, and their actions represented the reputation of the City Lord. Now that they had punished evil, they had earned a good reputation among the people. The City Lord would definitely not punish Hong Tianfang, but would instead reward him.
"Lord Hong, we will meet again!"
Huo Gangwu supported Huo Kang and said goodbye to Hong Tianfang with gritted teeth. This grudge was in his heart, and he would take revenge sooner or later.
"Don't worry, we will meet again soon."
Hong Tianfang did not care at all, and he even laughed loudly. Actually, he had long known about Young Master Huo's hooligan behavior, but as the commander of the Red Feather Army, he could not be bothered to deal with such a small matter. But the situation was different this time. This kid actually dared to flirt with the Ximen family's eldest daughter and second daughter.
It could only be said that Huo Gangwu had too little contact with the outside world, and only knew these few people in the North Shore Immortal City. He actually did not know that there were also large families in the Eastern Heaven Realm. For example, this Ximen family, their business extended from the Eastern Heaven Realm to the Northern and Southern Heaven Realms, and only the Western Heaven Realm could not interfere.
In the Southern Heaven Realm, there was also the Ximen Clan's ship, and it wasn't just limited to the North Shore Immortal City. The Heavenly Crown and Temple of Heaven were protected by the Heavenly Palace because the Ximen Clan's backer in the north bank was the captain of the city defense department, Hong Tianfang's direct superior.
The reason Hong Tianfang dared to chop off Young Master Huo's hands and claim to be Ximen Ziling's relative was all because of the city defense captain.
"Milord, milord, you have to help me!"
Huo Gangwu didn't know about this situation, so he brought Huo Gang back to the yamen. Instead of going to his mansion, he went straight to the governor of the North District, who was also his superior. Hong Tianfang was half a level higher than Huo Gangwu, and the Governor of the North District was also half a level higher than Hong Tianfang. Now that the people at the entrance of the yamen were being bullied, he believed that the Governor would definitely help.
"Gang Wu, don't be anxious. Tell me what happened first."
The Governor was the Governor after all. He would not agree to it blindly. He knew that Huo Kang was not someone who was easy to deal with. Most importantly, he wanted to know what kind of person he was. When he mentioned that Hong Tianfang called the other party his niece, the Governor of the North District didn't mind.
That was because Hong Tianfang liked to call any young woman he was slightly familiar with as his niece. But when he heard Ximen Ziling's name, his old face fell.
"You really don't know how to count. Do you know who Ximen Ziling and Ximen Baibai are?"
Huo Gangwu was a martial artist who only knew how to fight and capture people, but the Governor of the North District was different. The North District he was in charge of was close to the Milky Way, so of course he knew a lot of things. For example, the Ximen Clan not only had a close relationship with the captain of the city defense team, but he also heard that they had sent a lot of gifts to the city lord's mansion. Otherwise, how could their ship be protected by the Heavenly Palace?
The captain and vice-captain of the Heavenly Palace were both Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals. Ordinary people wouldn't even need to serve them.
"This … Are we just going to let Kang 'er's injury go?"
Huo Gangwu's heart was bleeding, because Huo Kang was his illegitimate son. His broken hands could grow back, but the humiliation would never be washed away. Unless he killed Du Feng and the Ximen sisters, even if he couldn't kill the Ximen sisters, he had to at least take care of that Du kid.
"Don't worry, I'll arrange it for you."
After all, Huo Gangwu was a capable subordinate of the Governor of the North District, and there were many things that he had to run errands for. Regarding this matter, the Governor's intention was to ignore the Ximen sisters for now and find a chance to deal with Du Feng. As long as Du Feng was killed, it could be considered as helping Huo Kang vent his anger.
"Alright, I'm relieved to hear that, Lord."
In fact, after Huo Gangwu returned, he understood that Du Feng was probably not the son-in-law of the Ximen Clan. He only said that because of the urgency of the situation. Because after Hong Tianfang came, Ximen Ziling and Du Feng became so close, and she didn't introduce Du Feng to Hong Tianfang.
"Men, go investigate this person named Du Feng for me."
The Governor of the North District immediately ordered people to investigate Du Feng's background. From the moment he entered the North Shore Immortal City until now, what he had done, where he lived, who he knew, and so on, everything was investigated.
Du Feng still didn't know that he had been investigated. After all, it was Hong Tianfang who had broken Huo Kang's arms, and the matter had started because of Ximen Ziling, so it shouldn't have anything to do with him. Therefore, he strolled back to his rented place, but just as he walked to the door, he saw Li Xiaofei and Li Xiaoli waiting there.
"What's the matter?"
Du Feng was a little puzzled, wondering why the siblings were waiting at the door today. Since they had the key, why didn't they just go in?
"Brother Du, I didn't want to say this."
Li Xiaofei's expression was very difficult, and Li Xiaoli's was even more difficult. Because she was the one who rented the house to Du Feng, and she had learned array formations from him. Now that her father had given the order, it was impossible to rent the house to Du Feng. Therefore, the siblings were here to chase him away.
"Alright, no need to say anything, I understand."
Du Feng looked at Li Xiaoli, then at Li Xiaofei's difficult expression, and immediately understood what was going on. Because he had offended the Huo Clan, especially the head constable, Huo Gangwu. And offending Huo Gangwu was basically equivalent to offending the entire yamen of the North District.
