"Young Master, she is already betrothed."
In front of a lavish pavilion, a middle-aged man sat paralyzed, clutching the leg of a young man, pleading.
The young man, dressed in fine clothes, carried an air of serenity, as if the middle-aged man hadn't moved at all.
"I'm not negotiating with you. I'll say it again, she's my woman now."
With a casual kick, the middle-aged man was sent flying, and Jiang Ming could sense a robust Qi-Blood from this young man in fine clothing.
On the other side were a pair of young lovers, the man trembling as he shielded the woman.
"Amann, run!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, four or five people surrounded the couple.
Two gorgeous women followed the young man in fine clothing, their eyes fixed on the girl named Amann.
Jiang Ming raised his brow slightly.
His gaze shifted to Amann as well.
It's like watching a drama unfold at home; Amann is one of the few martial arts hall disciples Jiang Ming remembers.
Among the basic practice sessions within three days, the girl named Amann was the most diligent.
"How unfortunate, the owner of Changfeng Restaurant got caught up in this mess."
"The Chang Family… not to be trifled with…"
The onlookers didn't even dare to make much noise, their eyes filled with fear and awe as they looked at the man in fine clothes.
The Chang Family... one of the prominent families in Evergreen City...
It's normal for aristocratic offspring to act like wastrels, but Jiang Ming found this high-profile behavior somewhat unusual.
Young Master Chang not dispersing the crowd, rather enjoying the display of his 'power'.
Jiang Ming could sense several martial artists within the crowd, yet none chose to intervene.
Among them were one or two with vigorous Qi-Blood, reaching the level of martial arts instructors, but they simply glanced and indifferently walked away.
Why offend the Chang Family for a stranger?
"In broad daylight, snatching a woman, shouldn't the City Lord's Mansion step in?"
Beside Jiang Ming was a martial artist with slight Qi-Blood. He turned around with a look that said Jiang Ming was an idiot, but was quick to restrain his gaze upon realizing he was facing a martial arts instructor-level master.
Seeing the curiosity in Jiang Ming's eyes, he reluctantly explained in a low voice: "The City Lord's Mansion is already overwhelmed with dealing with evil spirits. Besides, this is the Chang Family, as long as it doesn't escalate too much, the City Lord's Mansion will turn a blind eye."
"Boss Guan of Changfeng Restaurant is a decent man, financially okay, even sent his daughter to learn martial arts. But, unfortunately, his family background is too lacking, getting targeted by the Chang Family is truly bad luck..."
"This Young Master Chang... renowned for being..."
At this point, the passerby martial artist stopped talking, gave Jiang Ming a glance, sighed, and left.
Young Master Chang stood with hands behind his back, while Boss Guan kept begging, showing no sympathy, even finding a hint of pleasure.
The pitiful person pleading at his legs, the trembling man like a quail, the cute girl with clenched fists and gritted teeth, and the fearful eyes of the surrounding crowd, all made Young Master Chang excited.
He was already sick of the usual playing with women and now sought something that interested him.
Boss Guan abandoned any concern for his image because he knew nine out of ten women Young Master Chang got his hands on either ended up dead or insane. The lucky ones might barely retain their lives.
Boss Guan racked his brain, thinking of all his connections, but clearly, no one would challenge one of Evergreen City's top families for him.
In the midst of constant begging, trying different methods.
"Young Master, we've always believed in monogamy; it's inappropriate, inappropriate."
Upon hearing this, Young Master Chang barely glanced at him.
"Oh, really?"
"You two, come here."
The two women beside Young Master Chang obediently approached him.
In the next moment, red and white sprayed across Boss Guan's face, causing some in the crowd to call out in shock.
Young Master Chang had smashed the heads of the beauties beside him with both palms, leaving nothing but a mess of bodies.
"Now it's fine."
"It's getting late, little lady, come with me back."
The four servants slowly closed in on the couple.
At this moment, Jiang Ming's gaze was calm.
He gazed quietly in one direction.
Just as he expected, a thunderous shout sounded.
"That's enough."
The voice carried a special technique, making everyone feel like a bell rang in their minds.
Upon realizing, all four servants were moaning on the ground.
A thick-browed youth in gray attire had already blocked Amann and her companion.
Amann exclaimed joyfully, "Instructor Qian!"
Young Master Chang's eyes narrowed slightly, his frivolous demeanor turning into a dangerous look.
"Qian Changgong? Are you really going to offend me?"
"Chang Fang, don't push people too far. In recent days, you've targeted four disciples of Lion Roar Martial Arts Hall. Do you truly think Lion Roar Martial Arts Hall is easy to bully?"
Qian Changgong responded with no fear, looking steadily at Chang Fang, eyes filled with determination and murderous intent.
The atmosphere gradually grew tense.
"Interesting, interesting."
Chang Fang suddenly laughed and clapped his hands.
Four masters appeared among the crowd at some point, their Qi-Blood thick, all at the level of martial arts instructors.
"Lion Roar Martial Arts Hall is already struggling, without you as a pillar, I wonder how long Lion Roar Martial Arts Hall can last?"
Chang Fang's eyes fixed on Qian Changgong.
With a wave of his hand, the four advanced.
"Chang Fang, do you truly not fear the Evergreen Martial Alliance?"
"Qian Changgong, I'll be frank with you, White Cloud Martial Arts Hall has long given tacit consent, do you think your Lion Roar Martial Arts Hall is strong?"
"You want to play the hero and save the beauty? I'll show you right now, how tender this little lady is."
"How dare you!" Qian Changgong's face contorted with veins bulging, but at this point, even though Qian Changgong was Elder Qian's direct heir, he could only defend against four.
Guan Manx pushed her fiancé aside.
"Get lost, you!"
She then stepped forward with a standard straight punch.
The punch was beautifully executed, very standard.
Unfortunately, she was just a young girl with a few years of cultivation.
Chang Fang's face twisted into a menacing smile.
But swiftly, the figure of the young girl in Chang Fang's eyes shifted to a youth in gray attire.
A straight punch, identical action.
"Bang!"
Chang Fang's pupils contracted, his entire Qi-Blood erupted.
His body twisted at a strange angle like a long snake turning from defense to attack, his arm darted like a snake flicking its tongue.
Followed by a vast scorching heat.
"Boom!"
Chang Fang felt a sweetness in his throat, then lost consciousness, flying backward.
