The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 577: Can’t Keep Calm Anymore

In the depths of the Cangyun Mountain Range.

The bodies of fifteen members of the Sky Demise Mercenary Group lay on the ground, Ye Chenfeng, Wu Xiaofei, Ning Yuting, and Ye Dongjian had already left, leaving behind Wang Li and others who had long since retired from the Soldier King Group, to catch up with their former brother Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei, who had broken a leg and now commanded the Soldier King Group, struggled to stand up from the ground and leaned against a tree. He sighed and said, "Wang Li, I didn’t expect your strength to become so formidable. Is it the result of Ye Chenfeng’s training?"

Wang Li didn’t hide anything and nodded, saying, "In this world, apart from Instructor Ye, I can’t think of anyone else who could enable us to significantly increase our strength in such a short time. When we left the Soldier King Group, there was indeed some hesitation in our hearts, after all, the Soldier King Group held special feelings for us. But now, I’m really glad we made that choice, allowing us to truly embark on this path of the strong."

"You’re absolutely right, brother Li. This is just the beginning. As long as we follow Instructor Ye, we will also become peak-level experts one day. Moreover, Instructor Ye is extremely righteous and treats us like true brothers. I feel more passionate now than when I used to be in the Soldier King Group," a member who once belonged to the Soldier King Group and stood by Wang Li’s side, said.

Zhao Fei couldn’t help but frown, his tone questioning, "Wang Li, although I don’t know how far Ye Chenfeng can take you, I do know that if he continues to develop unchecked, many people won’t want to see it happen, and even other countries won’t tolerate a monster like Ye Chenfeng rising in Huaxia Country. If it really comes to that, you people will only end up as sacrifices for Ye Chenfeng." novelbuddy-cσ๓

"Wang Li, it’s not too late for you to return to the Soldier King Group now." Perhaps it was jealousy at work, envious of Wang Li and the others’ rapid improvement in strength, Zhao Fei’s words came out somewhat harshly.

"Zhao Fei, don’t think that just because you’re the current commander of the Soldier King Group, you can boss us around. We see you as brothers, but what do you take us for? If we hadn’t been here today, all of you would have been killed by the Sky Demise Mercenary Group. Let me tell you, Zhao Fei, we’re doing very well following Instructor Ye. One day you will see us reach the peak of the world."

"Zhao Fei, I always thought you were a man of integrity, but it turns out you’re just a mean person. You wouldn’t dare to say these things in front of Instructor Ye! With just a slap, he could send you off to meet King Yama. It seems from now on we can no longer even be brothers."

"No one in this world can speak ill of Instructor Ye. Even if we end up dying for him, I would not blink an eyelid. Instructor Ye is worth that much to us."

...

After spending a month with Ye Chenfeng, the members who retired from the Soldier King Group, such as Wang Li, developed a rapidly growing brotherhood with Ye Chenfeng and held him in extremely high regard. With Zhao Fei saying what he did, it was no surprise that it provoked their anger!

Wang Li looked at Zhao Fei with a sense of helplessness and shook his head. Originally, he wanted Zhao Fei and the others to follow Ye Chenfeng as well, but it was a pity that they missed another chance to become stronger.

"Zhao Fei, maybe what you said has some truth to it, but I believe that if Huaxia Country were to face a crisis, Instructor Ye would definitely not stand by idly," Wang Li said, his tone much more subdued than before. Perhaps after today, Wang Li and the other retired members of the Soldier King Group would become complete strangers to Zhao Fei and the others who remained.

"Wang Li, what makes you think that Ye Chenfeng won’t stand by idly?" Zhao Fei asked persistently.

"It’s a hunch, based on the fact that our blood is that of the descendants of Huaxia, and I have a very strong feeling that one day, Instructor Ye will stand above any country in the world."

"Zhao Fei, when paths diverge, there is no point in common endeavor. I hope you won’t regret it in the future."

Having said that, Wang Li took the lead in walking away, with the others following behind him.

Zhao Fei and the rest of the Soldier King Group members watched the retreating figures of Wang Li and his group. They fell silent one by one, still unable to calm down from the display of strength by Wang Li and his companions.

Four hours later.

In a hospital room of the Capital Military Region Hospital, Zhao Fei lay on the bed with a blank stare, his leg broken and encased in a thick plaster cast.

"Creak!" went the sound.

The door to the hospital room was pushed open, and Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan walked in. Yu Fengnian spoke up, "Commander Zhao, the operation this time was completed very successfully. The nation will accord you and your team significant honors for your achievements."

Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan only knew that all the members of the Sky Fury Mercenary Corps had been killed. They were still unaware of the full details of the incident.

Yu Fengnian’s voice brought Zhao Fei back from his stupor. Lying in the hospital bed, he saluted Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan, saying, "Elder Yu, Elder Yang, what brings you two here? It’s just a minor injury."

Yu Fengnian said with a smile, "Commander Zhao, you’re our hero. It’s only right for us to come and visit you."

"Elder Yu, Elder Yang, actually the members of the Sky Fury Mercenary Corps were not killed by our Soldier King Group. We had absolutely no chance of fighting back against them. Here’s what happened..." Zhao Fei recounted the whole story in great detail to Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan.

Yu Fengnian quickly asked, "Commander Zhao, what was the strength of those members who left the Soldier King Group originally?"

"They were only mid-tier in the group, or even slightly below mid-tier. But now, each of them is significantly stronger than I am. I never expected such a drastic change in them in just about a month." Zhao Fei spoke with a tinge of unwillingness.

Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan were very aware of Zhao Fei’s capabilities. He had always been the strongest member of the Soldier King Group. From his words, these two old men learned that Zhao Fei was utterly defenseless against the Sky Fury Mercenary Corps members. However, the former members of the Soldier King Group were easily dispatching Sky Fury Mercenary Corps members in almost a single move. The disparity was obvious.

Especially when Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan considered that all of those who had left the Soldier King Group were now under Ye Chenfeng’s command, these two could hardly remain composed.

Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan once lost face while trying to aid the Songs at the Ye family villa. Since that incident, the Yu and Yang families had completely cut ties with the Yes, although on the surface, they still remained courteous with them, as they had not yet found the chance to suppress the Ye family.

Then, because the Songs’ issue was exposed, the entire Song family was plunged into an abyss overnight. The Yus and Yangs had to bow to the Yes once more to quickly quell the storm, and in doing so, they had to offer plenty of benefits to both the Yes and the Wus.

Facing the Yes again and again, the Yu and Yang families had their noses rubbed in the dirt. The last thing Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan wanted to see was the Yes growing even stronger. Now that Ye Chenfeng controlled a force even more powerful than the Soldier King Group, how could these two old men stay calm?

"Commander Zhao, rest well. We won’t disturb you anymore. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask the hospital," said Yu Fengnian to Zhao Fei.

Then, after exchanging a look, the two old men hurriedly left the hospital room. They were off to figure out how they could make Ye Chenfeng hand over the power he held.

After Yu Fengnian and Yang Yuan left the hospital room, Zhao Fei muttered to himself, "Wang Li, I’ve told you before, many people won’t just sit by and let Ye Chen grow like this, let alone allow him to control such a powerful force. The ones who should be regretting are you."

It seemed that Zhao Fei was completely consumed by bitterness and jealousy, forever unable to accept that Wang Li and others had surpassed his strength in just a month’s time. (To be continued.
