Black Ox Town's New Law
The news that the Axe Gang had come to find trouble with Senior Ye spread like wildfire, and it immediately attracted countless onlookers.
Scarface could sense the enthusiasm of the people of Black Ox Town. As he watched more and more spectators gather, his smile grew even more sinister. From his point of view, the more people there were, the better. When that happened, he would also steal Ye Zichen's pants and make him lose face in front of everyone.
Thinking of this, Scarface shouted even louder.
"The people inside, come out. Your Grandpa Knife Scar is here for you. Don't hide in there pretending to be a grandson. If you're a man, come out and see me!"
The Divine Mountain had a rule that all residences in any district were considered private property. No one was allowed to force their way in. Those who broke the law would be severely punished by the Divine Mountain. Therefore, even though Scarface's group was very aggressive, they could only stand outside the door and shout.
Meanwhile, Ye Zichen was leisurely drinking immortal brew in his courtyard. Thanks to Li Wanlong's support, Wu Di no longer had to worry about money. He didn't have to plant spirit herbs all over the courtyard in exchange for money.
In order to allow Ye Zichen to live more comfortably, he'd specially modified the courtyard. He'd made a stone table in the middle of the courtyard for Ye Zichen to drink or answer his questions.
It had to be said that even though the immortal wine here was very tasty and the spiritual fruits inside were beneficial to raising one's cultivation, it was still not enough. However, he felt that this immortal brew was not as spicy as the Erguotou and Lao Bai Gan.
"Whoever is inside, come out now …"
At that moment, Ye Zichen, who was in the courtyard, heard the commotion outside.
Ye Zichen frowned, then waved his hand to set up a soundproof barrier around the room. Not long ago, Ye Zichen's words had given Wu Di some enlightenment, and he was currently in seclusion.
Perhaps he'd reach the peak of mid-stage entering immortality by the time he left seclusion. Ye Zichen couldn't let his shouts interrupt Wu Di's enlightenment.
After spending a few days in Black Ox Town, Ye Zichen was keenly aware that he was now an absolute tyrant. Even Li Wanlong's subordinates had to treat him and Wu Di with great respect. As for the commoners in the city, that was even less worth mentioning.
Just as he was wondering which idiot dared to come to his front door and curse, he heard …
"Your Grandpa Scarface is here for you."
Scarface?
The name sounded familiar!
Suddenly, Ye Zichen recalled the Axe Gang members he'd run into in the forbidden wastelands. Their leader seemed to be the one with the scar on his face. If he recalled correctly, he'd robbed them of even their pants.
How could Ye Zichen take such a minor character to heart? If it weren't for the old man shouting at him, Ye Zichen would've completely forgotten about him.
He touched the ring on his finger. Coincidentally, he had no money to buy alcohol recently, so he came over again.
What a nice guy!
Ye Zichen stretched lazily, then stood up from the stone chair, walked to the door and pushed it open.
"What are you arguing about?!"
Ye Zichen's calm rebuke caused Scarface, who'd been just about to make a fuss, to gulp. Although Ye Zichen had looked like an old beggar when he'd robbed him, based on his tone of voice and figure, he was certain that this handsome youth was the criminal who'd robbed him.
Scarface retreated to Zhao Ye, then pointed at Ye Zichen.
"Captain Zhao, that's him."
When he'd first arrived, Scarface was brimming with heroic spirit, but when he saw Ye Zichen's cold expression, his heart raced, and his calves trembled uncontrollably.
"You don't want to use that finger of yours anymore, do you?"
Ye Zichen's expression frosted over, and he glared at Scarface. Scarface instantly felt as if he'd fallen into an icy cavern. He shrank his neck and stood behind Zhao Ye, shivering. He repeatedly said, "That's him," but didn't dare point at Ye Zichen.
When Ye Zichen emerged from the courtyard, Zhao Ye naturally caught sight of him as well. When he saw him, Zhao Ye felt an overwhelming sense of heroism wash over him. When he saw Ye Zichen's face, he was even more astonished.
The way he saw it, anyone who could teach Scarface a lesson had to be around their age, but judging by his appearance …..
He looked like he was in his twenties.
Generally speaking, after entering immortality, one's appearance wouldn't change. Didn't that mean this youth had entered immortality at the age of twenty? Then now …..
Zhao Ye couldn't make up his mind, but when he considered that this was the mortal great district, and a tiny little Black Ox Town at that, his peak entering immortality strength was more than enough.
"Let me tell you, you've caused a huge disaster. I really hate it when people disturb me while I'm drinking, but not only did you disturb me, you did it so loudly. How do you intend to make it up to me? "
Ye Zichen cocked his head to the side, his expression unfriendly, especially when he looked directly at Scarface.
When he sensed Ye Zichen's gaze, Scarface instinctively wanted to retreat, but when he remembered that Captain Zhao was by his side, he puffed up his chest and snorted.
"Grandson, don't think too highly of yourself. Do you see that? This is our Axe Gang's chief captain, Captain Zhao Ye. "
"Mm. What about it?" Ye Zichen's expression was as calm as ever.
Scarface felt powerless against Ye Zichen's indifferent tone. He gnashed his teeth, his gaze fierce, and snorted.
"What do you think? I'm here for revenge."
"How are you going to get revenge?" Ye Zichen's expression was as calm as ever, as if he didn't care about Zhao Ye and the others at all. He chuckled. "Don't tell me you want to fight me here? I'm afraid that'll be quite unbearable. Administrator Li Wanlong and a few of the stewards of Black Ox Town issued an order a few days ago forbidding all private fights within Black Ox Town. If you want to fight me, then you'll have to fight the guards of Black Ox Town first. "
In truth, Li Wanlong was the one who'd issued the order. He was truly worried that Ye Zichen would harm them in Black Ox Town, which was why he'd contacted the town's stewards.
On the surface, it looked like he was doing this for the sake of the town's residents, but in reality, he was trying to restrict Ye Zichen.
"What are you doing up ahead? Black Ox Town forbids private fights. Do you want to test the law?"
Coincidentally, Black Ox Town's soldiers were patrolling the area. In truth, Li Wanlong had instructed them to set up Ye Zichen's residence as their primary patrol point to monitor his movements.
The soldiers' angry roars caused Scarface and Zhao Ye's expressions to shift. Ye Zichen, however, shrugged and laughed.
"You should be grateful for Black Ox Town's decree. Without it, you might already be lying on the ground. And you, I'm afraid you've lost your pants. "
Being robbed of his pants was a lifelong humiliation for Scar Face.
When he heard Ye Zichen mention his scar again, his entire face flushed red. He roared angrily, "What are you talking about?
