Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 316 Even Dragons Must Bow Before Me

```

The Shadow bowed and, with utmost respect, said, "Your Majesty, the person behind the attack on the Mistress is named Zhang Yuancheng. He is the eldest son of the Aristocratic Clan Gate Zhang Family in the Imperial Capital!"

"And that Sky-piercing, he is the godson of the Great General Duantian from the Great General's Mansion."

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but furrow his brows and said, "Duantian's godson?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. However, there's a deeper background to Sky-piercing. If our Hidden Army had not infiltrated deeply enough, I fear we would not have been able to uncover it," Shadow responded.

"Continue," Ye Feng said as he picked up a cup of tea that had already been prepared on the table.

Shadow continued, "This Sky-piercing is the grandson of the Heaven Guard National Pillar, who was one of the four great national pillars of the Xuanyuan Nation in olden days."

"The four great national pillars?" As Ye Feng heard this, his face finally showed a slight change in expression.

If it were just the matter of the general's mansion, he wouldn't have taken it seriously, but the four great national pillars were not to be taken lightly.

In the last century, when the Xuanyuan Nation was in turmoil and even at the brink of collapse, it wasn't just the two supreme elders of the Utility Pavilion who turned the tide, but also the four great national pillars, each boasting illustrious military achievements.

It could be said that each of the four great national pillars was a cornerstone of the Xuanyuan Nation in those years, their prestige even exceeding that of the Ten National Warriors. However, as the Great River of Time flowed, not many of the four pillars remained in this world.

Shadow paid no regard to the changes in Ye Feng's expression, as her duty was merely to report intelligence. She went on, "As for the person Ning Weiwei brought with her, his name is Autumn Parting Crane, the direct disciple of Qiu Kuzhen, one of the Nine Sect Leaders of the Utility Pavilion."

At this point, Shadow suddenly added, "Moreover, Your Majesty, concerning the rumors about you spreading throughout the Imperial Capital, my surveillance has found that they are mostly released by Qiu Kuzhen and another individual, one of the Seven Sect Leaders, Mo Daoxing."

Ye Feng nodded slightly, then said, "What other useful intelligence is there? What about the progress with Master of the Shicha Sea? Is there any development?"

The Shadow, who had just risen, bowed once more and said, "I am incompetent, Your Majesty. Although we have located the whereabouts of that Master, we have not yet discovered his connections. Therefore, we have not acted rashly, so as not to startle the snake."

Ye Feng sneered and said, "Since we have located him, sometimes we must startle the snake, forcing it out of its hole."

"Your Majesty means?" Shadow spoke, then suddenly said, "I understand. I will make preparations now to draw the snake out the hole and then trace back to the source."

Ye Feng waved his hand and said, "Go ahead. Also, order all Hidden Army experts to secretly infiltrate the Imperial Capital within the next two days!"

"Yes!" After Shadow spoke, his figure flashed, and he vanished into the dark corner.

"A storm is brewing, and it is time to settle that old score from the past!"

Ye Feng slowly got up, walked to the door and pushed it open. By now, it had completely darkened outside; threatening clouds rolled in, signaling an impending downpour.

"Xiao Chuanqi, Leng Wuming, Sima Zhantian, the three of you, come with me!" Ye Feng commanded. Immediately stepping out, as the words left his lips, Xiao Chuanqi and the others, who had been waiting nearby, appeared and followed closely behind him.

The side door of Northern Cloud Residence slowly opened, and two black domestic sedans gradually drove out, heading towards the Outer City.

Ye Feng sat in the back seat with his eyes closed, silent. Xiao Chuanqi at the passenger seat didn't ask any more questions, because there was no need to; once the master had made a decision, all they had to do was carry it out.

Besides, everyone knew the current situation well: the Mistress had been humiliated and injured. As the Northern Border King, Ye Feng would certainly not let the matter rest; anyone could be trifled with, but absolutely not Hong Qingyan.

This was undoubtedly touching the Northern King's reverse scale!

As the saying goes, dragons have reverse scales, and touching them means death!

The car left the Inner City, and soon arrived at the Outer City. Since it was the peak time for commuting in the evening, the speed was not fast, and it was only then that Ye Feng slowly opened his eyes.

He knew that those who had been following him in the dark had suddenly diminished after leaving the Inner City, which obviously meant these shadowy figures all hailed from the Inner City background.

In other words, as long as he, the Northern Border King, did not cause trouble in the Inner City, even if the Outer City was turned upside down, those from the Aristocratic Clan Gate within the Inner City wouldn't care in the slightest.

An hour later, the car arrived in front of a resplendent building on the West Suburb of Kyoto Riverside. The horizontal sign hanging on the building was just as splendid, bearing the words "Magnificent Gold".

In the Imperial City, anyone with any social standing recognized these four words, for it was a clubhouse, the Magnificent Gold clubhouse, and also a gathering place beloved by high society ladies.

No one knew who the owner of Magnificent Gold was, but there was absolutely no doubt about the influence of its owner!

And at this moment, in the top-tier venue of the Magnificent Gold clubhouse, spanning more than five hundred square meters, lay a swimming pool on the left, a huge dance floor in the middle, and a rest and business area to the right, from where one could overlook a large part of the Outer Imperial City.

Three handsome young men sat there, each donning luxurious, limited-edition suits, legs crossed, with two so-called enchanting socialites by their side.

The young man in the middle, dressed in a white leisure suit, swirled the tall crystal glass in his hand and suddenly grinned, "I heard 'he' is back?"

He didn't specify who 'he' was, but the other two knew exactly whom he was referring to. The tall and thin young man on the left said in a deep voice, "Yes, it's said he arrived at Northern Cloud Residence at dusk."

Having said this, the tall and thin young man paused thoughtfully before continuing, "Young Master Zhang, the day before yesterday, you invited that woman with the surname Ye to a banquet and made a setup to humiliate that limping lady. Could this lead to trouble? With his temperament, will he tolerate this insult?"

This young man known as Young Master Zhang was named Zhang Yuancheng. Outsiders in the Outer City might not be aware of his background, but those in the Inner City were certainly no strangers; he was the eldest son of the Inner City Zhang Family.

Although there were quite a few Zhang surnames in the Inner City, there was only one Zhang Family, that is, the Aristocratic Clan of the Zhang family.

The Zhang family had been in business for three generations, with industries spread across much of the Xuanyuan Nation, but their real foundation actually came from Zhang Yuancheng's grandfather, Zhang Mouguo, who was the deputy director of Xuanyuan Nation's Heaven Governance Division.

With such a strong background, the day-to-day wealthy Magnificent Gold clubhouse stood unchallenged, and precisely because he had his grandfather to back him up—and his grandfather had even more powerful backers—did he dare to mess with the woman of the Northern Border King.

"What trouble could it possibly cause? How could it cause any trouble? So what if he has returned? Ever since he arrived in the Imperial City, word has been out that even if he's a dragon, he'd better lie low. And if he's a worm, then he's just a frog crawling into a snake's hole, looking for its own death!" Zhang Yuancheng snorted, his lips curling up in a disdainful sneer.
