Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

The architecture of the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect was ancient, evoking a sense of the great river of time.

There were already seven or eight people in the hall, mostly high-ranking members of the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect. Lord Qi of Qitian Gate sat resolutely in the center, with another Vice Sect Leader beside him, along with several elders who managed the sect’s affairs.

Looking out from the door along the hall, those inside could clearly see a young girl with a limp, slowly pushing a wheelchair towards them.

The young person sitting in the wheelchair was indeed very young. He didn’t look particularly handsome, but he had a unique and firm appearance, the sort whose face wasn’t initially striking but became increasingly appealing and charismatic the more one looked.

If there was anything especially notable, it was the young man’s eyes, which always looked straightforward, calm to a surprising degree, even carrying an air of transcendence.

This young person was, of course, Ye Feng!

Another Vice Sect Leader of the Divine Doctor Sect, Liang Zhong, squinted as he sized up Ye Feng for a moment before whispering, "Lord Qi, what is so special about this young man?"

Lord Qi of Qitian Gate snorted coldly without speaking, but his anger was unmistakably etched on his face.

A few days ago at the Jiangdu martial arts school, during the martial gathering of the Three Great Ancient Families, Ye Feng publicly insulted Lord Qi in front of everyone in Jiangdu, showing no regard for him. Considering that Qi himself was the esteemed Sect Leader of the Divine Doctor Sect, how could he not be furious?

If it weren’t for the rumors he had heard about this Mr. Ye in the past couple of days, indicating that the wheelchair-bound cripple had some capabilities, he would have already sent people to settle the score.

But Lord Qi could never have imagined that this cripple, this frenzied son-in-law of the Hong Family, would be so audacious as to dare to personally visit the Divine Doctor Sect!

An administrator pondered before saying, "Lord Qi, I’ve heard some rumors that this young man in the wheelchair shouldn’t even be offended by Long Zaitian of the Martial Alliance. Shouldn’t we be cautious for the time being?"

Lord Qi of Qitian Gate let out a snort and said, "So what? The Jiangdu Martial Alliance oversees the Martial Dao World, and the Divine Doctor Sect is in charge of the medical field; they are two different concepts. If the Jiangdu Martial Alliance fears this kid, that’s Long Zaitian’s lack of courage!"

The other administrators and elders remained silent, clearly having made up their minds about the situation.

At that moment, led by Luo Keque, Ye Feng’s wheelchair had entered the hall.

Lord Qi of Qitian Gate did not move, still sitting in the seat of honor, radiating an aura of superiority.

He did not rise, so naturally, neither did Vice Sect Leader Liang Zhong or the other administrators and elders.

The atmosphere in the reception hall instantly became tense, as everyone simply stared at Ye Feng, not even bothering to utter a word.

Ye Feng’s expression remained unchanged, his gaze fixed on the plaque hanging above the reception hall, inscribed with the four sizeable gold-painted characters declaring their mission to "Heal the World with Our Pots".

Ye Feng was no stranger to these four characters. In fact, he was quite familiar with them because he had written them in earlier years!

Of course, the plaque of the Jiangdu Divine Doctor Sect was not Ye Feng’s authentic handwriting. He had written only one, which now hung in the great hall of the headquarters of the Imperial Divine Medical Sect. The one in Jiangdu was evidently made to imitate that of the Imperial headquarters, though the writing remained unchanged.

When Ye Feng proposed the creation of the Divine Doctor Sect, he had been too busy establishing the Martial Alliance to be involved personally, so he entrusted friends from the Valley of the Medicine King to found the sect.

After the establishment of the Divine Doctor Sect, that friend from the Valley of the Medicine King invited Ye Feng to be the honorary Sect Leader of the Divine Doctor Sect and asked him to inscribe a motto as the sect’s guiding principle!

However, Ye Feng was always low-profile, much like the Grand Alliance Leader of Jiangdu, and so not many knew of his role as the honorary leader of the Divine Doctor Sect.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a bit bizarre, Luo Keque quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Let me introduce, this is Mr. Ye Feng who has been the talk of Jiangdu recently!"

Only then did Qitian Gate grunt indifferently, "So it’s Mr. Ye, forgive my old eyes for not recognizing you at first, no offense meant!"

Though he said this, his behind still didn’t leave his chair, and he continued to sit there with an attitude that was haughtily dismissive to the extreme.

Ye Feng wasn’t angry either, and he chuckled lightly, "Since Lord Qi’s eyes are failing and his hands are not so steady with needles, it’s also time to step down from that high position."

Qitian Gate roared with laughter, like the sound of thunder reverberating in the hall, unceasing. Of course, he could do so because he was using his Inner Strength.

When Inner Strength is released through one’s voice, it naturally becomes more powerful and resonant. By doing this, Qitian Gate was undoubtedly sending a message—I, too, am a Master of Inner Force!

You, surnamed Ye, may have some skill, but I’m not easy prey!

After his laughter ceased, Qitian Gate then snorted coldly, "This seat I occupy today is secured by superior medical skill and ethics. When I step down is not something that just anybody can decide with a few words!"

Ye Feng smiled, on the verge of saying that he didn’t need a few words but just a phone call to kick you off that seat. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But before he could speak, Deputy Sect Leader Liang Zhong spoke coldly, "Luo Keque, you are a Vice Sect Leader after all. Don’t you know the rules of the Divine Doctor Sect? Our sect has always kept its distance from outsiders. Now you let such an outsider in, what is your intention?"

One of Qitian Gate’s trusted stewards sneered, "Isn’t it obvious? Deputy Sect Leader Luo probably thinks he stands above the rest in the Divine Doctor Sect and can override the rules."

Luo Keque was not flustered because he was acutely aware of what manner of figure this young man in the wheelchair really was.

"Let’s not get angry, gentlemen, allow me to do a proper introduction!"

Luo Keque slightly moved forward, smiling, "Lord Qi’s medical skills are unquestionably excellent, but my friend Mr. Ye’s medical skills are also extraordinary, even to the extent of being called a Peerless Divine Doctor. Although he is not one of us from the Divine Doctor Sect, medics share a common heart and hence I took the liberty to invite him here."

Ye Feng couldn’t help but snicker inwardly, thinking how this old geezer Luo Keque really knew how to ride coattails, boldly proclaiming in front of all these people that he was his friend.

Nevertheless, Ye Feng didn’t say much. Even though Luo Keque had his own agendas, it was generally harmless and his attitude was sufficiently respectful, which was far more compliant with the times compared to Long Zaitian and others.

"A Peerless Divine Doctor?"

As expected, as soon as Luo Keque’s words fell, the entire hall bristled with outrage, almost all the stewards and elders showing anger on their faces.

"In the face of the Divine Doctor Sect, to call him a Peerless Divine Doctor, Luo Keque," Liang Zhong said with a sneer, "you should know there’s a limit to flattery, aren’t you afraid of lifting this cripple so high that he can’t bear it and falls to his death?"

"Exactly, calling an outsider a Peerless Divine Doctor in the presence of the Divine Doctor Sect is like showing off one’s swordsmanship before Guan Yu."

Luo Keque’s face remained unchanged, but inwardly he was elated, thinking that these myopic fools should just go ahead and mock and belittle to their heart’s content. The harsher they scorn and suppress him now, the more painful it’ll be when they witness his capabilities!

"I must tell everyone, Mr. Ye is indeed a prodigious doctor; I haven’t lied about this!" Luo Keque declared firmly.

With a sudden move, Qitian Gate stood up abruptly, enraged!
