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

Chapter 140: If the good don't come, those who come are not good!



Upon hearing the name of the Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master, even Ye Feng furrowed his brows and a solemn expression spread across his face.

Over the years, Brahma Kingdom had been coveting the Southern Territory of Xuanyuan Nation, even going so far as to send secret agents to infiltrate and spy on them. Xuanyuan Nation did not sit idly by either; in fact, even the Northern Border, where Ye Feng was, although far from Brahma Kingdom, had once dispatched a squad of elite scouts to penetrate the enemy's interior.

So, as for Brahma Kingdom, and for this Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master, Northern King Ye Feng, who had intelligence network lines, was no stranger; on the contrary, he was rather well-informed.

According to intelligence, three years ago, this Grand Zen Master, who held great prestige in Brahma Kingdom, announced he would enter secluded cultivation, meditating on life and death. It was said he would not leave until he broke through to the Arhat Fruit Position, vowing not to take even half a step outside, even if he were to die in his cave.

Brahma Kingdom's system of martial arts was different from Xuanyuan Nation's, although both practiced the Martial Dao and their realms were not identically categorized. However, they could largely be corresponded. The Arhat Fruit Position of Brahma Kingdom was approximately equivalent to the Realm of the Martial King in Xuanyuan Nation.

In other words, now that the Grand Zen Master of Brahma Kingdom had emerged from his retreat, it meant that he had achieved the Arhat Fruit Position!

Ye Feng remained expressionless, still sitting in his wheelchair, but his gaze sharpened, and he immediately opened his eyes, looking through the doorway into the dark night outside.

In the darkness of the night, beneath the blanket of stars, suddenly there appeared a figure revealing half an arm and clad in the distinctive red kasaya of Brahma Kingdom, followed by more than a dozen imposing martial artists.

"This kind of aura is already restrained, having reached the realm of 'Return to Simplicity.' He has indeed achieved the Martial King, but although the Qi Force within his body is surging, it is somewhat turbulent. It seems he has just had a breakthrough, and his realm is not yet completely stable!"

Though watching silently from his wheelchair, Ye Feng's keen perception allowed him to see everything far more clearly and truly than anyone else present.

At this moment, the Four Protectors were obviously somewhat anxious and in disarray, exchanging uneasy glances.

The Second Protector, who was holding the Square Inch Chessboard, hummed lowly, "This Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master, who secluded himself two years ago, vowed not to emerge unless he achieved the Arhat Fruit Position. Could it be that he has truly broken through to the Realm of the Martial King?"

The Third Protector gritted his teeth and said, "This time the other party has come aggressively and without following normal diplomatic channels, it must be with ill intentions. So, this old bald monk has most likely achieved the Arhat Fruit Position!"

For a time, all four Protectors fell silent. After a while, the Fourth Protector hummed, "Now what to do? The four of us alone may not be able to contend with this old bald monk, and there's too little time to notify the imperial capital to dispatch an unparalleled master—it's obviously too late!"

The Hengling Domain Lord, Hundred Herbs Realm Lord, and Nan Dong Territory Lord were also too intimidated to speak, looking up instead at the Great Protector to see how he would respond.

As for Southern King Dugu Ming, at this moment, he simply sat in a corner, effectively becoming invisible.

After pondering for a moment, the Great Protector finally gritted his teeth and said, "As the saying goes, if the enemy comes, the general will block, and if the water comes, the soil will cover. Since they have come knocking, we can't act like cowards. Let's meet this bald monk first and talk later!"

The Second Protector said, "Indeed, even if this Reincarnation Wheel Bald Monk has truly reached the Martial King, he must have just broken through, and his realm is certainly not yet completely stable. Big Brother, you are now nearly stepping into the Martial King Realm yourself. If it really comes down to a fight, you may not necessarily lose to him!"

As they were speaking, suddenly, a burst of hearty laughter came from outside.

"Ha ha, in your Xuanyuan language, as the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm. Not only is the Southern King present, but all four Protector Dharma Kings of the Southern Territory are here too. It seems I, the Zen Master, have come at just the right time!"

The speaker was the bald monk clad in a red kasaya revealing half an arm, namely, the Reincarnation Wheel Zen Master of Brahma Kingdom.

Although he spoke in the Xuanyuan language, his voice was incredibly loud and awe-inspiring, shaking the surrounding courtyard trees into a rustling chorus, and even causing the cups on the tables in the great hall to tremble incessantly.

Clearly, this old Zen Master was deliberately showing off his kung fu, as well as imposing a form of intimidation, but everyone had to admit that his power was profound and his inner strength was overwhelmingly vigorous.

Sima Zhantian, seeing this, could not restrain his fiery temper and immediately wanted to jump out.

Ye Feng promptly waved his hand to stop him, "Don't rush, let's wait and see. Besides, it's not our turn to come forward yet!"

Although Sima Zhantian was hot-tempered, he was not foolish. He nodded and responded, "What the Master said is right. After all, these bald donkeys are not targeting us; there's no need for us to stick our necks out!"

Ye Feng just smiled slightly and said no more. Although Sima Zhantian's words were not incorrect, they weren't entirely right either. Even if the other party was not here for them, since the Reincarnation Wheel Zen Master represented the Brahma Kingdom, it meant that this matter was no longer just an affair of the Southern Territory.

If necessary, Ye Feng had no intention of standing idly by!

The Great Protector put on a smile, quickly walked out to greet the guests, and laughed heartily, "I had no idea distinguished guests were visiting. The Southern Territory has been remiss in extending a warm welcome, my apologies."

As he spoke, he bowed slightly, maintaining a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing, without losing the proprieties.

The Reincarnation Wheel Grand Zen Master laughed heartily, "To be honest, my visit this time is a personal one, not on behalf of the Brahma Kingdom. Thus, I did not notify in advance. My sudden disturbance is regrettable, and I hope the Great Protector of the Southern Territory does not take offense and is generously understanding!"

Despite his repeated emphasis on a personal visit, as a Great Zen Master of the Brahma Kingdom and one of its Eight Protectors, his every move and word naturally represented the Brahma Kingdom, especially when visiting another country.

The Great Protector, of course, was not foolish enough to point this out. He too laughed heartily, "As the saying goes, a visitor from afar is a guest. Since the Great Zen Master has come from a long distance, the Southern Territory naturally welcomes you. I only wonder, what business brings the Great Zen Master here?"

The Reincarnation Wheel Zen Master chuckled, "Since we have come from afar, naturally we have matters to attend to. 'No one visits a temple without a cause,' as the saying goes in your Xuanyuan Nation. But surely, the Great Protector, you aren't planning to leave me standing outside without inviting me in for a cup of tea, are you?"

It must be said that this Reincarnation Wheel Zen Master was very familiar with Xuanyuan Nation and understood its cultural etiquette perfectly, speaking without a single flaw.

The Great Protector smiled apologetically, "Look at me, so happy to see the Zen Master after so many years that I forgot my manners. Please, come inside, venerable master!"

The Reincarnation Wheel Zen Master nodded slightly, then led his entourage of more than a dozen followers into the great hall.

Fortunately, the hall was vast enough to accommodate everyone, and the looming armed confrontation that was once on the brink of erupting within was held off due to the sudden arrival of the Zen Master.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng and others had already moved to the corner on the left side, sitting in connection with the King of the Southern Territory, while Xiao Jingyuan and the other three Domain Lords also took their seats on the left side.

The Reincarnation Wheel Zen Master and his followers unifiedly took their seats on the right side, with a clear division between the two camps in the great hall, apparent at a glance.

Outside, more than two thousand soldiers, having received the command from Lan Youzhong, the Great Commander, swiftly surrounded and secured the perimeter of the large courtyard.
