I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!
Chapter 5 The Mysterious Misty Rain Pavilion!
At this moment, the Snow Moon Pavilion was deathly silent.
The stench of blood in the air was so strong it was nauseating.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the four heads, completely dumbfounded. Some of the more resilient individuals even vomited on the spot.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
At that moment, a series of hurried and heavy footsteps came from outside Snow Moon Pavilion.
In the blink of an eye, a group of martial artists dressed in black uniforms and wearing standard long swords rushed in. The leader had a deep and imposing aura and was clearly a sixth-rank martial artist.
On the chest of their uniforms was embroidered a majestic character for "Emperor".
The Imperial City Guard! The guardians of order in the capital!
The captain of the Imperial City Guard immediately noticed the four heads on the ground, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
His face instantly turned extremely ugly. He recognized all four faces; their fathers were all powerful and influential officials in the court.
Four sons of officials were beheaded in public. If this matter is not handled properly, his time as captain will be over!
His gaze, sharp as lightning, instantly locked onto Leng Yue, whose murderous aura lingered. He abruptly drew his sword, blade pointing directly at her, and roared, "You audacious madman! How dare you commit violence under the Emperor's nose! Guards, seize him on the spot!"
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The Imperial Guard members behind him drew their swords in unison, the cold blades reflecting a chilling light under the lamplight, instantly surrounding the Bluebird.
Just as tensions were about to rise, a lazy voice rang out at an inopportune moment.
"Imperial City Guard? What impressive official authority!"
Chu Feng strolled leisurely to the group of Imperial City Guards and coldly said, "You dare arrest even people from my Zhenbei Prince's Mansion? What? Do you think my Zhenbei Prince's Mansion has no one left?"
Swish!
Only then did the captain of the Imperial City Guard and his men notice Chu Feng standing to the side, and their expressions changed.
This Prince Zhenbei is a synonym for lawlessness in the capital. The Imperial City Guard has dealt with him many times, and each time they have ended up looking foolish.
The captain's expression changed several times, but he finally slowly sheathed his sword, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Chu Feng, and said stiffly, "So it is Prince Chu here. I was blind, please forgive me, Your Highness."
"Now, are you still going to take my people away?" Chu Feng glanced at him and asked calmly.
The captain felt a chill run down his spine, but forced a smile and said, "Young Master Chu, your men have publicly killed four people, and there is ample evidence. We are ordered to maintain order in the capital and should bring the murderers to justice."
"Besides, the backgrounds of these four young masters... if we don't take care of them, we really can't explain it to them."
"Explain?"
Chu Feng snorted coldly.
"Do I, Chu Feng, need to explain myself for killing someone?"
"Whoever wants an explanation, let him go to the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion to ask for it himself."
Having said that, he didn't even glance at the group of Imperial City Guards whose faces were ashen, and led Leng Yue straight out of the building.
Only after Chu Feng's figure disappeared through the door did a young member of the Imperial City Guard mutter resentfully, "What's with the arrogance! The Zhenbei Prince's Mansion has suffered a great calamity, and only an old Zhenbei Prince is left. Does he really think he's still the powerful Zhenbei Prince heir he used to be?"
"Shut up!" the captain hissed, glancing at the doorway with a complex expression. "Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. The Prince of Zhenbei's residence is not something you or I can discuss. Immediately report this matter to the Commander-in-Chief!"
Meanwhile, on the top floor of Xueyue Tower, in an exquisitely elegant room.
A woman in white sat by the window. She was slender and graceful, with a cool and aloof temperament like a lotus flower on a snow-capped mountain. The tea in front of her was steaming, reflecting her exquisite and flawless face.
The elegant young woman from before strode in, bowed respectfully, and asked with a hint of confusion and urgency, "My lord, why won't you let us take action? That Chu Feng openly broke the rules of Snow Moon Pavilion and even killed our men. How can we just let him go like this?"
The woman in white put down her teacup, her voice clear and cold, like jade beads falling onto a plate: "The woman beside him is a Grandmaster."
"Grandmaster?!"
The young woman was shocked, and all color drained from her face.
A grandmaster-level expert at such a young age, willing to be a servant?
The Prince of Zhenbei's mansion has such a profound history!
She then continued, "However, now that all the generals of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion who held military power have died tragically, and the Zhenbei Army has suffered heavy losses, I'm afraid the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion doesn't have many good days left!"
"Send someone to keep an eye on him," the woman in white ordered without answering.
"Keep an eye on him?" The young woman was even more puzzled. "What's there to keep an eye on a good-for-nothing playboy who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun?"
The woman in white slowly shook her head, a strange light flashing in her cold eyes: "I don't know why, but I have a feeling that this young man is not simple. The decisiveness he showed tonight is something that a spoiled brat could not possess."
"This... could it be that his previous image was all an act?" The young woman gasped, a thought sending chills down her spine.
"That's why I need you to send someone to keep a close eye on him." The woman in white picked up her teacup. "If he's really faking it, then the situation in the capital is probably about to change."
"Yes!" The young woman replied respectfully, her mind at ease.
……
Chu Feng, having left Snow Moon Pavilion, was naturally unaware that he was being watched.
At this moment, he was plotting how to deal with Luo Qing.
As the heir of the Marquis of Tiannan, Luo Qing's status is far beyond that of those four. If he were killed directly, it would inevitably cause some trouble for the current Prince Zhenbei's Mansion.
"It seems we'll have to act in secret."
Chu Feng's eyes flashed, and he had already made up his mind.
"Kid, there seem to be quite a few rare and precious treasures in that building up ahead!"
At that moment, the enchantress's voice suddenly rang out.
Chu Feng paused, then looked up.
Not far ahead, a simple octagonal building stood quietly in the night.
On the rooftop plaque, three large, elegant characters, written in a flowing, calligraphic style, were faintly visible under the glow of the lanterns.
Misty Rain Pavilion.
Chu Feng stared at the signboard of the building, searching his mind for information about the Misty Rain Pavilion, but he had no memory of the Misty Rain Pavilion in his predecessor's memories.
"Where is this place?"
Leng Yue, who was standing to the side, immediately explained: "Your Highness, the Misty Rain Pavilion is the most mysterious trading place in the capital. As long as you can afford the price, you can buy anything here, from cultivation resources and secret manuals to rare and exotic beasts, intelligence information, and even... human lives."
"Oh?" Chu Feng raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "How do you know so much?"
"His Highness instructed me to familiarize myself with all the noteworthy places in the capital beforehand," Leng Yue replied calmly.
"Interesting." Chu Feng stroked his chin, looking at the building and muttering to himself.
As he spoke, he lifted his foot and walked towards the Misty Rain Pavilion.
Upon entering the building, a scent mingled with herbs, metal, and ancient scrolls immediately greeted you.
The lobby on the first floor was very spacious, with dozens of counters set up. Many fierce-looking martial artists were talking quietly with the shop assistants, creating a solemn and orderly atmosphere.
A shop assistant dressed in a blue cloth robe immediately came forward, bowed, and said, "Young master, how can I help you?"
"What do you sell here?" Chu Feng looked around with great interest.
The shop assistant smiled and said, "Young master, at Yanyu Pavilion, we basically have anything you can think of."
"The first floor is the regular cultivation resource trading area, the second floor is the arena, the third floor is the auction house, the fourth floor is the trading information area, and the fifth floor is for providing one-on-one customized services for the most distinguished guests."
Chu Feng's heart stirred, and he asked directly, "Do you have any rare and precious medicinal herbs here that can restore life?"
The shop assistant's smile faltered slightly, and his gaze towards Chu Feng instantly became more serious: "A treasure that restores life force is a heaven-defying item, extremely rare in the world."
"However, there happens to be a large auction on the third floor tomorrow night. Perhaps something that you need will appear then. You can come and try your luck."
"An auction?" Chu Feng's eyes flickered, and he nodded. "I understand."
He paused, then surveyed the entire first-floor lobby, before suddenly uttering a startling statement: "I want all the cultivation resources on this floor!"
Swish!Swish!Swish!
Upon hearing this, the entire hall fell silent instantly.
All the martial artists who were trading suddenly turned their heads, and their gazes, some surprised and some scrutinizing, all focused on Chu Feng.
Immediately afterwards, a mocking laugh broke the silence.
"Who's got such a big mouth? Turns out it's the number one good-for-nothing heir of our Great Qian Dynasty!"
"You're a piece of trash who hasn't even stepped into the martial arts realm. Are you planning to eat all this cultivation resources?"
