In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 21 Establishing Authority

It can be said that after entering the training stage, possessing the electric shock suit, and having the ultimate trump card of "instant return," Shen Xing already had considerable confidence in facing that otherworldly city.

"Teleport!"

Once everything was ready, Shen Xing had a thought and appeared directly in the alley he had been in before.

Time in this world flows in the same direction as in the Human Federation, and four days have passed. The corpses on the ground have long since disappeared, but if you look closely, you can still see some red marks left on the ground.

The bullet holes from the previous shooting are still there.

With a thought, Shen Xing activated the contact lens-type terminal worn on his eyelids.

Yes, this time he specifically bought a personal terminal with the internet connection turned off. It wasn't cheap, but it had powerful computing capabilities and a lot of software programs installed.

The software currently running is called "Detective Conan".

It can quickly mark traces that are not normally visible.

Of course, it also has a lie detector function.

"This thing could be considered a cheat code in some novels from my past life," Shen Xing said with satisfaction.

Having possessed an interstellar martial arts world, he was already quite confident here.

Stepping out of the alley, the street seemed no different from before, still bustling with people and filled with the noisy atmosphere of the marketplace. However, the moment Shen Xing stepped out, this atmosphere seemed to diminish. Many ordinary people dressed in hemp clothing, with sallow and thin faces, hurriedly made way for him, as if even their breathing became suffocated.

Wherever it goes, almost everyone avoids it.

Even those who were clearly martial artists looked at Shen Xing with considerable caution, and some even dared not look at him for long.

Because Shen Xing's snow-white, flowing, and elegant attire was simply too eye-catching in this setting.

Even someone who knows nothing about clothing can tell that it is "expensive" just by looking at it.

In addition, with his fair skin, upright posture, and handsome appearance, it can be said that his image almost screams "scion of a prominent family."

They're not just any ordinary large family.

At least, none of the scions of the major families in this city have ever possessed the imposing presence of Shen Xing.

It wasn't until Shen Xing had walked a certain distance that a great deal of discussion suddenly broke out on the street.

"My goodness, where did that young master come from?"

"I've never seen anything like it before, but I bet it's from a big city!"

"Why is he all alone? Isn't he afraid?"

"Naive. How do you know it's just one person? There might be some great master hiding in the shadows."

"Stop looking. Even if the disciples of these big families are young, their strength won't be weak."

"Be careful, don't mess with them."

"."

Some were amazed, some speculated, and many more were wary. After all, many of these young masters were arrogant and domineering, and it wasn't uncommon for them to kill someone in the street if they were displeased.

As Shen Xing walked into the Pill Pavilion, the gazes of the martial artists inside were clearly filled with caution and respect.

Even martial artists without a strong foundation can have a decent status, but it depends on who they are compared to.

Compared to the scions of such prominent families, they were not much different from the common folk outside.

When the shop assistants inside Dantang saw Shen Xing, their eyes lit up and they approached him with smiles.

One of them was the same person who had received Shen Xing the last time he visited.

However, after taking a few steps, the rather young but very observant shop assistant suddenly paused, looked Shen Xing over carefully again, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This height, this build

Shen Xing was also looking at him.

The "Detective" software has provided timely warnings.

This person seems to know you.

How could he be recognized like that?

It seems that one should not underestimate the observational skills of martial artists, especially those in the shopkeeper profession.

An idea popped into Shen Xing's mind, and she turned to give him a half-smile: "What, you can't recognize me just because I changed my clothes?"

The identical sound confirmed the shop assistant's suspicions.

Gurgle.

He swallowed unconsciously.

He seemed somewhat panicked and nervous.

惊慌

Shen Xing's gaze turned icy for a moment.

The last time I was spotted as soon as I entered the alley, it was obviously because I flaunted my wealth in Dan Ge. Everyone in Dan Ge at the time could be the mastermind, including the shop assistant in front of me.

It looks like we've found it?

Clearly, Shen Xing's undisguised cold gaze did not escape the shop assistant's notice, which intensified his panic.

He still vividly remembered how those people died last time, and he had been feeling somewhat fearful these past few days, constantly worried that the "master of hidden weapons" would come after him.

Now, seeing Shen Xing appear as a member of a prominent family, he was even more certain that he had messed with someone he couldn't afford to offend.

But she could only force a smile and pretend she knew nothing.

"So it's you, young master. You look quite different from last time, no wonder I didn't recognize you at first."

"Heh." Shen Xing chuckled twice. "Can't recognize me? Your eyesight is indeed poor. Tell me, what makes you think that those few pieces of trash can kill me?"

Suddenly, the shop assistants who had been approaching all stopped in their tracks.

After a long pause, the other customers in the store also began to look at each other with amusement.

Even the middle-aged shopkeeper, who had been lying on the recliner with his eyes closed, squinted and looked over.

The shop assistant, who was being stared at by Shen Xing, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Young master, is there some misunderstanding?" He still tried to appear calm. "I would never dare to do such a thing."

"Now you know you won't dare?" Shen Xing's face darkened. He glanced around and sneered twice. "Have you made me lose face in front of my family, or is this how your Pill Pavilion always treats its guests?"

That's right, Shen Xing is seizing the opportunity to establish his authority!

He had already figured it out; the strongest person here was probably the shopkeeper, but even he hadn't reached the Marrow Refining level.

Then there's nothing to fear.

I'm afraid I'll have to deal with this Dan Pavilion a lot more in the future. If I can establish my authority successfully this time, I can save myself a lot of trouble.

not to mention--

Shen Xing's self-proclaimed persona is that of a disciple from a large family undergoing trials, who is ambushed and robbed on his first attempt to buy something. How could he not be angry?

He was ostensibly referring to the shop assistant, but his gaze was now fixed on the shopkeeper.

Clearly, after hearing these words, the shopkeeper could no longer remain seated.

"It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding." The shopkeeper jumped up from the recliner and ran over quickly, his face full of smiles. "Young master, you must have misunderstood. Our Dan Pavilion has a reputation of over a hundred years. We would never do such a thing. This kid must have been blinded by money. Please forgive him, young master."
