The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 2203 - 2192: This Is My Turf

Ancient City of Heavenly Origin.

In an incredibly large ancient square.

A massive cage had been constructed in the center of the square.

Within the cage, many people were imprisoned, including Zhao Bo, Li Bo, and the Family Head of the Yuns, Yun Gaozhuo.

Previously, Zhao Bo and Li Bo were responsible for transferring Qingyue Sect members from the Spirit Continent, while Yun Gaozhuo was in charge of relocating members of the Yuns. All those transferred to the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin were now held captive within this cage.

The meridians in Zhao Bo, Li Bo, and Yun Gaozhuo and the others had been sealed, rendering them unable to activate the spiritual qi river within their meridians. Their faces were filled with worry, and they were unaware of the events that had transpired within the Grand Tianxuan Festival.

Outside this massive cage.

Three elderly figures stood. Among them, an elder with a solemn expression was none other than Xu Gongfu, the ancestor of Qianyuan Villa, whose strength was at the threshold of the Divine King Realm, just a step away from entering it.

Another elder with a graying beard was Liang Heguang, the ancestor of Giant Gale Valley, whose strength was at the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly God Realm.

The last elder, whose nose appeared somewhat sunken, was Jiang Wenchang from the Huoyun Sect, also at the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly God Realm.

Aside from Liang Heguang and Jiang Wenchang, there were four more elders in the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin at the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly God Realm. Currently, these four elders were not present in the square.

Xu Gongfu and the others were already in the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin, and their respective forces—Qianyuan Villa, Giant Gale Valley, and Huoyun Sect—had associations with the Jins, Heavenly Sword Sect, and Xiao Yao Palace. Upon receiving the Jins’ bounty, they naturally felt obligated to act. Moreover, according to the information received, their target was merely a young lad at the Peak of the Sixth Layer of Divinity Transformation Realm, surrounded only by a few high-level individuals.

Liang Heguang frowned and said, "Do you think this boy who disrupted the Grand Tianxuan Festival has the guts to come to the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin? It seems there’s something interesting about this year’s festival. Someone actually dared to cause trouble within it? And he’s just a kid from a Lower Plane?"

Jiang Wenchang shook his head and said, "According to Xiao Yao Palace, the strongest among them is merely at the Initial Stage of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly God Realm. I doubt they have the courage to come here. They know it’s a one-way ticket, so why would they dare to come?"

Xu Gongfu replied darkly, "Even if they don’t come, we must find a way to lure them here. As long as we capture that boy, Xiao Yao Palace, the Jins, and Heavenly Sword Sect will owe us a favor. I’ve been stuck at half a step into the Divine King Realm for years now, and surely, among their three forces, there’s a way for me to progress into the Divine King Realm."

Upon hearing this, Liang Heguang and Jiang Wenchang’s eyes lit up. Opportunities to gain a favor from Xiao Yao Palace are rare, and this is certainly a great one.

Shortly after Xu Gongfu finished speaking, the Messaging Jade Token at his waist began to flicker. Upon checking it, Xu Gongfu’s expression changed, and he chuckled, "It seems we won’t have to rack our brains. That boy named Ye Chenfeng has come to throw himself into the net. He seems quite loyal!"

Liang Heguang promptly asked, "Any experts accompanying him?"

Xu Gongfu shook his head, "According to the message from the Jade Token, the strongest among them is merely at the Initial Stage of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly God Realm, and they are willingly walking into the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin."

"Under the guidance of those handling the city gate checks today, Ye Chenfeng and his companions should be on their way to us."

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!" Four sounds.

Another four elders at the Peak of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly God Realm appeared in the square, standing beside Xu Gongfu. They must have also received the message.

After a while.

Under the lead of two elders checking the city gate, Ye Chenfeng and Zhao Xingtu arrived at the massive square.

The two elders hadn’t immediately acted against Ye Chenfeng and his group as they didn’t want to make decisions on their own, given they weren’t the strongest in the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin.

After guiding Ye Chenfeng and the others to the square, the two elders also walked over to Xu Gongfu and his group.

Ye Chenfeng’s entrance into the Ancient City was witnessed by many cultivators there. For days, Ye Chenfeng’s image had been posted at the city gate. Those who hadn’t attended the Grand Tianxuan Festival already knew of Ye Chenfeng by now.

All these cultivators rushed to the square to watch the spectacle—they didn’t want to miss such a grand show. Discussions and various opinions spread throughout the crowd.

"This boy is the one who ruined the Grand Tianxuan Festival? He doesn’t seem to have three heads and six arms! I really wonder where he got such courage!?"

"Ignorance breeds fearlessness. How could the Pavilion Master of the Array Magic Pavilion and two Deputy Pavilion Masters from the Alchemy Pavilion possibly be so reckless? The Grand Tianxuan Festival isn’t something anyone can disrupt at whim. Their fate is surely to be miserable, but they deserve it."

"They say the kid’s strength is only at the Peak of the Sixth Layer of Divinity Transformation Realm. It’s reckless of the Pavilion Master of the Array Magic Pavilion and Alchemy Pavilion to follow him in madness. It’s as if they’re begging for trouble."

...

Ye Chenfeng stood calmly in the square, his aura reined in to perfection. No one present could sense his true strength.

Ye Chenfeng’s gaze fell upon Zhao Bo, Li Bo, Yun Gaozhuo, and the others within the massive cage.

Upon seeing Ye Chenfeng and his companions, Zhao Bo shouted, "Chenfeng, leave here immediately, don’t worry about us."

Li Bo also shouted, "Hurry away, get out now."

Yun Gaozhuo echoed, "Ancestor, leave quickly, you shouldn’t have come."

...

Xu Gongfu sneered, "Is it not too late to leave now?"

His focus shifted to Ye Chenfeng, "I didn’t expect you’d actually come here? For Xiao Yao Palace, Heavenly Sword Sect, and the Jins to issue a bounty on you, consider yourself honored; not just anyone merits this kind of notice."

"Rest easy; we’re not going to kill you. We’ll hand you over to Heavenly Sword Sect for judgment. So will you surrender, or do you want us to act?"

Ye Chenfeng’s expression remained immensely calm. As soon as he entered the Ancient City, those ghost cultivators likely sensed his arrival. It’s possible those powerful ghost cultivators had already used their divine sense to silently communicate with Ye Chenfeng; they were now completely hidden in the shadows.

Standing beside Ye Chenfeng, Yun Rong and Zhao Xingtu felt a hint of worry, despite their trust in Ye Chenfeng. After all, the opponent had half-step Divine King experts.

Previously, Ye Chenfeng had killed Jin Shouyan by leveraging external powers. They knew such powers couldn’t always be relied upon. Now, while Ye Chenfeng’s strength was up to the Initial Stage of the First Layer of the Heavenly God Realm, and his combat power extremely formidable, contending against half-step Divine King experts might still be overly ambitious. They were unsure of what cards Ye Chenfeng might still have to play.

Ye Chenfeng ignored Xu Gongfu’s taunts, his gaze moving over the surrounding cultivators, his voice steady but resonant, "If you’re here to watch the spectacle, leave immediately, and I’ll consider you never came. But if you choose to stay, don’t expect to leave here alive."

"The Ancient City of Heavenly Origin isn’t your playground. This is my territory!"

Upon hearing this.

Those cultivators who came to watch the spectacle felt even more disdain towards Ye Chenfeng. They originally wanted to see him captured, as they were already displeased with him. Some even considered stepping on him two more times.

Instantly, mocking jeers erupted.

"Boy, who do you think you are? How dare you spout nonsense here? I’m standing right here watching this show. Can you do anything about me? People like you only have one path—death; I’ll gladly lend a hand."

"Indeed, daring to disrupt the Grand Tianxuan Festival deserves death a thousand times. Saying we won’t leave alive? I’ll stand here waiting for you to kill me. Do you have that ability? You think you’re some big shot?"
