Chapter 218 A real man does what a real man does! Little Yuzu, the constable, is here to protect you!
Zheng——
The music abruptly stopped, and the room fell into a deathly silence.
Looking at the three tokens on the table in front of him, a ripple finally appeared in Chu Heng's usually indifferent eyes.
"This is……"
Yang Lin's pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints!
The golden token was engraved with a phoenix perched on a parasol tree, and it was the second-rank Flying Phoenix Token, also known as the legendary death-exemption token!
The other two tokens are a purple token with a phoenix spreading its wings and a black token with a qilin pattern, both lifelike and detailed!
The Purple Phoenix Token and the Qilin Token!
They respectively represent the majesty of Consort Yu and the Qilin Pavilion!
thump--
Yang Lin's knees buckled, and he knelt directly on the ground, prostrating himself and kowtowing, his body trembling as if he were being shaken.
Seeing the purple phoenix and flying phoenix is like seeing the Venerable One himself!
"This humble servant greets Her Majesty the Empress and Her Highness the Imperial Noble Consort!"
wow-
Upon seeing this, the other musicians and dancers also knelt down.
Meanwhile, the other young noblemen at the table looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
The dancer in Chu Heng's arms trembled. He gently stroked her hair with his hand, looked up at Chen Mo, and said in a flat tone, "Lord Chen, are you trying this trick again? You think you can fool me with a few tokens? Do you think I'm like Zhou Jing'an?"
Chen Mo shook his head and said with a smile, "It's not about having many tricks, but about using them... To be honest, Zhou Jing'an is quite stupid. He gave up being a proper young master and insisted on becoming someone's dog. In the end, he was skinned alive, but the dog's owner didn't even give him a second glance. Tsk tsk..."
Seeing his sighing expression, Chu Heng's eyes darkened slightly. "What exactly do you want?"
"That's a question I should be asking you, Your Highness." Chen Mo pressed his fingers on the table, his deep eyes fixed on Chen Mo's. "Your Highness has repeatedly caused trouble, showing no respect whatsoever... Do you think your neck is tough enough, or is my blade dull?"
"hiss--"
Upon hearing this, everyone present gasped.
Although they knew that this Lord Chen was arrogant, they did not expect him to be arrogant to this extent!
Chu Heng's thin lips curled up, a playful look on his face: "What, Lord Chen, killing a few colleagues isn't enough, you want to kill me too?"
Chen Mo flicked the token with his index finger and said casually, "I have already listed the rules. It is up to His Highness to choose."
"Oh?"
Chu Heng asked with some curiosity, "What if I choose the Qilin Token?"
“Then we’ll proceed according to the rules of the Tianlin Guard. I suspect that His Highness is colluding with the demon race, hoarding red sand, plotting against court officials, and attempting to overthrow the regime… You have to come with me to go back and be investigated,” Chen Mo said seriously.
Chu Heng frowned upon hearing this. "People must be responsible for their words. You have no evidence to support your unfounded accusations against me, the young master."
Chen Mo countered, "Why don't you go and find out when I've ever talked about evidence in handling cases?"
Chu Heng: "..."
"What about the other two?" Chu Heng asked.
"That makes things simple. With the Imperial Concubine and the Empress protecting you, you're guaranteed to escape death. I'll just kill you right here and now," Chen Mo said with a smile.
?
Chu Heng's eyelids twitched.
This guy is as arrogant as ever...
At that moment, a gust of wind swept by, and Gu Manzhi, dressed in a white dress and wearing a veil, appeared, carrying two unconscious men in black.
“They were found near Yunshui Pavilion. These two were acting suspiciously, preparing to harm Yu'er and Liu Miao, but I discovered them in advance… Henshui has now taken them under protection.” Gu Manzhi casually tossed the two people to the ground.
Chen Mo raised an eyebrow slightly, "It seems that His Highness is still determined to do something."
Chu Heng shook the wine cup in his hand. "I don't understand what you're talking about. Who can prove that I sent them? Why don't you take them back to Tianlin Guard for interrogation, Lord Chen?"
Chen Mo knew that Chu Heng dared to do this because he had already absolved himself of all responsibility.
Even if you use every kind of torture, you absolutely won't get anything out of them.
But that's not important...
He never intended for Chu Heng to face legal consequences.
Swah——
Without saying a word, Chen Mo suddenly launched an attack, and a fierce blade flashed.
Chu Heng reacted quickly, pulling back and simultaneously shoving the dancer in his arms away.
The blade traced a strange arc, grazing the dancer's head and shaving off a few strands of her hair before heading straight for Chu Heng's throat!
Chu Heng's pupils contracted slightly, his palm glowed red, and he reached out and grabbed the blade.
Clang!
A series of sparks erupted, and the sound of metal clashing was enough to make your teeth ache.
The blade narrowly stopped an inch from his neck, firmly gripped by Chu Heng. However, the piercing light still managed to pierce his skin, and a trickle of blood flowed down his neck, staining his white collar crimson.
Everyone present stared in disbelief at the scene.
They thought Chen Mo was just talking big, but they didn't expect him to actually dare to kill them.
Has this guy gone mad?!
A cold glint flashed in Chu Heng's narrow eyes. "You've got some nerve, daring to commit murder in public? You should know very well what the crime of murdering the heir of the Prince's mansion is. Even with a get-out-of-jail-free card, you can't get away unscathed!"
Chen Mo said innocently, "I don't understand what you're saying, Your Highness. The knife flew straight towards your neck. What does it have to do with me? Who can prove that I did it?"
"..."
Chu Heng looked around, and everyone quickly averted their gaze.
They didn't want to get involved in this mess. Chen Mo was a madman who was capable of anything. If he jumped in at a time like this, he might really lose his life!
"It seems His Highness isn't very popular." Chen Mo's lips curled up, the blade twisted, and it sliced across his wrist, blood splattering instantly. His entire left hand was almost severed at the wrist!
Chu Heng took two steps back, and red light spread from his palm. The bleeding stopped quickly, and the wound, which was originally deep enough to expose the bone, was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It quickly recovered to its original state, leaving only a shallow knife mark.
Chen Mo raised an eyebrow slightly.
This healing speed is comparable to that of vital essence.
It seems that my previous strange feeling was correct; there was indeed something fishy about Chu Heng...
"I haven't settled accounts with you for what happened last time. Do you really think my Prince Yu's Mansion is made of mud?" Chu Heng's tone was icy, and a blood-red longsword appeared out of thin air in his hand.
The sword is three feet long, double-edged, and curved like a wave. The blade is blood red, with two gold lines engraved on the edge.
Even from a great distance, one could feel that sharp and unparalleled aura.
Chen Mo didn't waste any more words with him. He poured his true essence into the Broken Jade Blade, and the jade-like blade emitted a blazing blue light.
Chu Heng had repeatedly tried to harm him in secret, and even set his sights on Ling Ningzhi. He had long harbored murderous intent, but had simply not found the opportunity.
Now that the old butler is not around, let's just solve this problem once and for all!
tread--
Chen Mo took a step forward, and his figure suddenly disappeared, appearing behind Chu Heng as if he had traveled through space.
The Jade Shattering Blade, trailing an arc of mystery, slashed down through the air!
Chu Heng, however, seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. Without turning around, he swung his long sword backward, aiming it directly at Chen Mo's heart, as if he wanted to fight him to the death!
Chen Mo neither dodged nor evaded; his chest was covered by jade scales as he directly took the sword strike head-on!
Clang——
The sword was bent slightly by the force of the impact, but it didn't even pierce through a layer of skin!
At the same time, the Jade Shattering Blade landed on Chu Heng's shoulder, about to cleave him in two. However, the blade shifted uncontrollably to one side, only tearing his clothes without harming him in the slightest!
"Ok?"
Chen Mo frowned slightly.
Although it was only for a moment, with his eyesight, he could still see it clearly—
The moment the blade touched his skin, a layer of fine, blood-red scales appeared on Chu Heng's body!
The scales seemed elastic and had an extremely smooth surface, so when the blade struck the body, it felt no force and slid to the side.
"These are... snake scales?"
"court death!"
A flash of bloodlust crossed Chu Heng's eyes, clearly indicating that he too was enraged.
With a flick of his longsword, he emitted a series of ringing sounds, then spun around and slashed at Chen Mo.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
A howling gale accompanied a burst of sparks.
The two moved at incredible speeds, darting and weaving through the room, leaving the onlookers dazzled. All they could see were two afterimages, and the chilling sword energy and blade light stung their skin!
Hearing the commotion, the purple-clad guards standing outside rushed into the restaurant.
"Protect His Highness!"
They drew their swords and were about to rush forward when suddenly, chains made of several shadowy figures appeared out of thin air, binding them tightly and immobilizing them in place.
A radiant light shone from Gu Manzhi's brow as she softly said, "My lord is busy right now; no one else is allowed to interfere."
boom!
The azure aura, like a cascading silver river, pierced through the red sword energy and slashed fiercely at the prince's chest.
Although protected by the blood-red scales, he was not seriously injured, but the immense force still sent him flying backward.
Chen Mo moved with lightning speed, arriving first despite being behind.
Before Chu Heng even landed, a golden spear shot out from the sky!
Under intense wind pressure, the gun barrel was bent into a crescent shape and slammed down on him with a piercing whistle!
Having fought against grandmasters many times, Chen Mo possessed an exceptionally keen eye and immediately discerned the weakness of these blood-red scales... To achieve such elasticity, the scales couldn't be too thick, and their defensive capabilities were certainly not very strong.
Since sharp weapons are ineffective, let's use blunt weapons to smash it!
"This guy……"
Chu Heng's heart skipped a beat; he hadn't expected Chen Mo to react so quickly.
But he lost his balance and was unable to dodge for a moment, and was sent flying by a spear!
However, Chen Mo pressed his advantage relentlessly. His body was enveloped in plasma, and with the help of the Wind and Thunder Guidance, he moved with lightning speed, dodging ahead of time to reach the landing point and slamming down with a backhand shot!
boom! boom! boom!
The dull thud was chilling!
Chen Mo used the Sky-Splitting Spear like a stick, whipping it around like a spinning top, striking Chu Heng again and again!
"His Royal Highness!"
The guards' eyes were bloodshot with rage.
However, under Gu Manzhi's suppression, they could only watch helplessly as this scene unfolded, unable to move an inch.
Chu Heng was completely stunned by the beating.
The blood-red scales were covered with cracks. Under Chen Mo's terrifying strength, his blood and qi surged and his internal organs ruptured... If this continued, he would probably be beaten into mincemeat!
boom!
Chen Mo's arm muscles were bulging like a dragon, and he slammed his spear into Chu Heng's chest with great force.
"puff!"
He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and crashed through the wall like a meteor!
……
……
It was the hour of Xu (7-9 PM).
Yanle Street was brightly lit and bustling with activity.
Qin Yi and the others staggered out of the restaurant. Liu Qiansong put his arm around Qin Yi's shoulder and said drunkenly, "Brother Qin, it's a deal. From now on, I'll cover all your expenses at the brothel..."
"But you absolutely have to put in a good word for me and let me pull some strings with Lord Chen!"
"I really want to..."
"Alright, I know you want to improve, but you need the opportunity first."
Qin Yi said helplessly, "Brother Chen is a deputy commander, how could he handle so many cases personally? I just happened to be there."
"Sigh, you're right." Liu Qiansong sighed helplessly. "When will I ever have such good fortune..."
boom!
Just then, a loud crash came from ahead, and a figure burst through the wall and fell onto the street.
The noisy atmosphere fell silent instantly. "What's going on? Is someone causing trouble at the Jiaofangsi?"
"Wait a minute, that looks like Lord Chen!"
Everyone looked up.
Behind the smashed wall, a figure holding a long spear stood proudly.
"It really is Lord Chen!"
Liu Qiansong snapped out of his daze, his expression filled with excitement. "Lord Chen must be apprehending a wanted criminal. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, we absolutely cannot miss it!"
The others were also breathing rapidly, their eyes gleaming green.
In their eyes, Chu Heng had become a walking contribution...
……
……
Chu Heng had just gotten up from the ground when a strong wind suddenly whistled behind him, and Liu Qiansong delivered a flying kick that sent him staggering.
Before he could react, a group of people rushed up and started punching and kicking him.
"Holy crap, who are you guys?!"
"A messenger of justice!"
"Do you fucking know who I am?"
"Criminals!"
Liu Qiansong grabbed Chu Heng's arm, pressed his legs against Chu Heng's neck to form an armbar, and shouted, "Lord Chen, the criminal has been apprehended!"
Chen Mo: ?
Chu Heng: ?
Chu Heng's eyelids twitched, and his teeth ground together. "Where did this pack of stray dogs come from? Get the hell out of my way!"
boom!
Crimson blood energy surged from his sleeves, hurling the people who were pressing down on him away.
The vast blood mist drifted away with the wind, and Chu Heng's figure disappeared into it in an instant.
"Strange, where did they go?"
The crowd looked puzzled.
Chen Mo frowned slightly as he looked at the crimson aura.
This method...
It looks familiar!
Chu Heng's sinister voice came from within the mist: "This farce can end here."
He originally didn't want to reveal too many of his cards, but now that things have come to this, he can no longer hold back!
“To commit a crime in full view of everyone was the perfect opportunity to kill him. I acted in self-defense, and even the Empress and the Imperial Concubine cannot find fault with it!”
"Although this bloodlust might give us away, it's more important to eliminate this major threat!"
As soon as Chu Heng thought of this, the blood mist swirled and roared. Just as he was about to make his move, a chill inexplicably ran down his spine.
Suddenly looking up, I met a pair of purple-gold eyes!
His gaze pierced through the layers of blood mist, locking firmly onto him!
"caught you."
A bronze scroll appeared between Chen Mo's brows, and countless characters surged forth.
Chu Heng realized something was wrong and tried to escape, but it was too late. The characters condensed into a large blue hand, which grabbed him in its palm.
click-
The large hand slowly tightened, and the bones and muscles made a series of cracking sounds. Chu Heng's face turned red, and his bulging eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Dual cultivation of Taoism and martial arts?"
"How can it be?!"
Chu Heng had already overestimated Chen Mo's strength as much as possible, but he never expected that Chen Mo would be so well hidden!
A 20-year-old fourth-rank martial artist, who also cultivates both martial arts and Daoist arts—this is simply astonishing! If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it!
"No wonder the demon race has repeatedly failed. Below the Grandmaster level, who else can be his match?"
"Ha, it's just that your vision is too narrow."
Chen Mo had no time for idle chatter. His palm crackled with purple lightning as he slammed it down on Chu Heng's head!
"stop!!"
Suddenly, a furious shout came from afar!
A black figure, accompanied by a shockwave, burst through the air!
However, Chen Mo ignored him and placed his palm on the top of Chu Heng's head, activating the Purple Heaven Lightning to its limit. The blazing lightning was like a scorching sun, completely engulfing him!
"Ahhh!"
Chu Heng trembled violently and let out a miserable wail.
Purple plasma seeped into the cracks in the scales, and the flesh and blood rapidly decayed and withered under the lightning strike!
"How dare you, Shuzi!"
The voice was filled with rage.
The pressure from the Grandmaster level swept down, instantly dispelling the lightning and suppressing Chen Mo in place, rendering him unable to move even a finger.
The white-haired old butler flashed behind Chu Heng and helped him up.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
"Do you think I look like I'm okay?!"
"..."
Chu Heng's body was charred black, his flesh was rotting, and one of his eyeballs had burst open, with turbid blood gushing down from the corner of his eye.
The intense pain made his body tremble uncontrollably. Pointing at Chen Mo, he screamed hoarsely, "Kill him! I want him dead!!"
The old steward raised his head and stared coldly at Chen Mo, "Committing a crime in the street with the intent to murder His Highness the Crown Prince is a heinous crime and he should be executed on the spot..."
However, before he could finish speaking, he suddenly realized something.
Chen Mo's eyes were deep and unfathomable as his soul power condensed into an invisible blade, which pierced directly into Chu Heng's sea of consciousness!
Soul Slayer!
"puff!"
Chu Heng was struck dumb, coughing up a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled back, and he completely lost consciousness.
"Sir!"
The old butler exclaimed in surprise.
He never imagined that Chen Mo was not only a practitioner of both Daoist and martial arts, but also a master of the art of attacking the soul!
"Old man, you talk too much nonsense."
Chen Mo revealed his gleaming white teeth, his smile unrestrained and arrogant. "Execute me on the spot? You? You're nothing but Chu Heng's dog, yet you dare to bark and howl in front of me... I'm standing right here, try touching me!"
"you!"
The old steward was so angry that he wanted to tear him to pieces.
But he knew very well that this guy did have the right to be arrogant!
Although he is a Grandmaster, he is only a servant in terms of status, while Chen Mo is the Deputy Commander of the Tianlin Guard. Taking action would be an overstepping of his authority... Moreover, given the temperament of that Imperial Concubine, even the Chu family might not be able to protect him!
But Prince Chu is almost crippled from the beating, are we just going to let him leave like this?
Of course not!
The old steward took out an arrow from his pocket, raised his hand and tossed it into the air. After circling once, it shot off into the distance as if it had a life of its own!
"Kid, you just wait and see how long you can keep up your arrogance!"
"Get out of the way! Everyone get out of the way!"
Da da da--
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves rang out, the crowd dispersed, and several constables rushed towards them.
"Who dares to cause trouble in the capital city?"
The leader was a woman dressed in a martial arts robe, with pale skin and clear, sharp eyes; she was none other than Lin Jingzhu, the constable of the Six Doors.
She was patrolling nearby when she heard the commotion and quickly led her people over.
Seeing the scene before him, he was stunned.
Chen Mo stood there, holding a gun, facing off against an old man with white hair and beard.
The old man held a man whose body was mangled beyond recognition; the gruesome face was barely recognizable, but the auspicious cloud pattern on his brocade robe was enough to identify him…
"Prince?!"
Lin Jingzhu was somewhat incredulous.
Liu Qiansong and the others were puzzled. "What persimmons? Isn't that a criminal?"
"..."
Lin Jingzhu glanced at Chen Mo, and could roughly guess what had happened. Her mind raced, and she asked, "What exactly is going on?"
The old steward said in a deep voice, "This scoundrel committed a violent act in the street, severely injuring the young master. Everyone present can testify to this! If I hadn't arrived in time, the young master would probably be dead! Such a heinous act is utterly heinous and unforgivable!"
"Whether you are guilty or not is not for you to decide; this constable will investigate thoroughly."
Lin Jingzhu cleared her throat and said, "Guards, take the suspect Chen Mo back to the yamen to await trial!"
"Yes!"
The two constables responded and were about to step forward to arrest the man.
But the old butler moved aside and blocked their way, saying, "Wait."
Lin Jingzhu frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
The old steward knew perfectly well that this Constable Lin had a close relationship with Chen Mo. If they let her take the person away, things would become difficult later on!
"I have already notified the East City Military Command, and someone will be coming to arrest the culprit soon. There's no need for Constable Lin to worry about it."
Lin Jingzhu's eyes darkened slightly upon hearing this.
The duties of the Five City Garrison and the Imperial Guard were similar, both responsible for maintaining the security of the capital.
The difference is that the Military Affairs Department is under the command of the Ministry of War and can directly imprison criminals in the Imperial Prison.
The relationship between the Six Ministries and the Chen family is extremely bad, and they will definitely take advantage of this situation. We absolutely cannot let Chen Mo fall into their hands!
"Street fighting is within the scope of the Six Doors' duties. Do I need your permission to handle a case? Get out of the way!" Lin Jingzhu said sternly, "Otherwise, it's obstruction of official business, and you'll be arrested too!"
The old steward remained unmoved. "I said, no one can take him away before the Military Command arrives."
Under the suppression of the Grandmaster's power, everyone found it extremely difficult to breathe and was completely unable to move.
Tread-tap-
In the distance came the sound of rapid, drum-like footsteps, accompanied by the clatter of armor.
"The military command will be here soon."
The old steward smirked and sneered, "Once you're in the Heavenly Prison, even if you have a thousand abilities, you'll still be skinned alive. I'd like to see who can protect you then!"
"We've secured it, do you have a problem with that?"
Suddenly, a slightly effeminate voice rang out.
"Who?"
The old butler suddenly turned around.
A pale hand was reflected in his pupils, slowly enlarging, yet he felt there was no way to avoid it!
boom!
He was sent flying, crashing through several walls before finally coming to a stop at the end of the street!
The elderly man with white hair and a youthful face stood with his hands behind his back, his blue satin shirt embroidered with sea and cliffs particularly eye-catching.
"After serving the young master like a dog for a few days, he really thinks he's someone important?"
"This slap was on behalf of your master. Next time, before you bark, think about your own worth."
