The Feng Han Hou Mansion was unusually lively today.
Feng Han Hou was about to break through to the Heaven Realm, and his petition for enfeoffment as a King had been accepted. Chen Jiuyang, Feng Han Hou’s disciple, was a peerless genius. At only twenty-three years old, he had won the championship of the Feng Province Martial Rankings with his four acupoints in the Profound Realm, and had even comprehended the Divine Intent Skill of a Grandmaster in the Earth Realm.
These were all joyous occasions. Even though Feng Han Hou and Xi Butui had fallen out, everyone in Feng City had witnessed the situation today.
One after another, Grandmasters who had been granted the title of Marquis stood up to block Xi Butui for Chen Jiuyang. What kind of connections and influence was that?
Even Xi Butui might not have been able to command so many Marquis Grandmasters.
After Xi Butui left, Grandmasters who had been granted the title of Marquis were carried into the Feng Han Hou Mansion one by one. Chen Jiuyang painstakingly treated them, almost spitting blood.
However, this was all his responsibility.
Feng Han Hou said with some heartache, "Good disciple, the medicinal herbs used by these forty-seven old fellows are not cheap. My fortune is almost depleted."
"These resources could have been used for you and me, master and disciple."
Chen Jiuyang, soaking in the medicinal bath, chuckled, "Master, why be so distressed? Gold and silver are scattered, but they will return. Although today has almost emptied your coffers, our gains are also immense."
"All the Marquis Grandmasters in Feng Province have stood with us, united as one. And today, we can deliver the Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills to them."
"The Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills given today are a favor I, Chen Jiuyang, owe them. But if they want Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills later, won't they have to buy them from you, Master?"
Feng Han Hou nodded, "I know. If I didn't know we could earn it back, my Feng Han Hou Mansion would be merely a name, and I, your master, would have no resources to continue cultivating and breaking through to the Heaven Realm."
"Your cultivation progress would also fall behind."
Chen Jiuyang chuckled, "Master, you can't calculate accounts like that. Previously, there were a total of thirty thousand Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills. Each bottle contained nine pills. Giving each Grandmaster two or three bottles still leaves over twenty thousand pills, enough for us to cultivate."
Feng Han Hou said, "Now that we've fallen out with Xi Butui, the supply of Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills from the Six Doors can be cut off."
Chen Jiuyang sneered, "That's for sure. He, Xi Butui, did such good deeds. I will also use the mouths of forty-seven Grandmasters to spread the word about the Nine Yin Sun Devouring Array. What a vicious formation! He wants to kill hundreds of people from the Yao family like that. Does he have the right to be the Chief Constable of the Six Doors in Feng City?"
Feng Han Hou said, "Well said. Even if Xi Butui has deep roots in Feng City, he cannot attack an ordinary aristocratic family like the Yao family. The forty-eight Grandmasters of our Feng Province will jointly report to the imperial court to see if his position can be removed."
With so many Grandmasters requesting the Dragon Kingdom's imperial court to dismiss Xi Butui, they didn't believe Xi Butui could withstand the pressure. Moreover, Chen Jiuyang could split the Six Doors from within using the Pure Yang Qi Replenishing Pills. He didn't believe that all the secret agents and constables of the Six Doors would be loyal to Xi Butui.
Chen Jiuyang soaked in the medicinal bath until evening. Only then did his injuries begin to recover and improve, and his dried soul had a spark. He got out of the medicinal bath and had dinner with his family.
At the dinner table, Chen Jianmin asked, "Brother Xu, how long will our family stay here with you?"
Although Feng Han Hou was twenty to thirty years older than Chen Jianmin, they addressed each other as brothers.
Feng Han Hou pondered, "From one to two months at the shortest, to half a year at the longest. It's hard to say."
The King's enfeoffment letter could only ensure that no one within the Feng Han Hou Mansion would be disturbed or attacked. This was a rule that even Xi Butui could not break.
However, if they left the Feng Han Hou Mansion at this critical juncture, it would be uncertain.
This morning, after Feng Han Hou sent Chen Jiuyang to the Feng Province Stadium, he immediately sent the Yao family and the Chen family to the Feng Han Hou Mansion by helicopter before submitting the King's enfeoffment letter.
"We have to stay this long..." Chen Jianmin stammered, "Our house is still being repaired..."
Chen Jianmin had been a contractor his entire life. His own house, a villa worth tens of millions, was a top priority for him. He wasn't at ease if he wasn't personally overseeing it.
Feng Han Hou found it both funny and exasperating. The simple thinking of ordinary people was truly different. No matter how good gold and silver mountains were, they were not as good as one's own home.
At the dinner table, Yao Qianhe spoke, "This matter indeed needs to be discussed. Master Xu, my Yao family is currently selling off our real estate. If my Yao family's principal figures do not appear for a long time, I fear that Xi Butui will seize my Yao family's assets."
Upon hearing this, Feng Han Hou immediately frowned. The Yao family had assets worth one to two hundred billion that still needed to be dealt with. They couldn't just let Xi Butui take advantage of the situation. This was not a small sum. The Yao family had hundreds of members and had been an aristocratic family for hundreds of years.
Chen Jiuyang also found it difficult. This plan was rather hasty, and the only drawback was that the Yao family's assets were not easy to deal with. The Lin family was a scholarly family, protected by people from the Six Doors. No matter how much Xi Butui hated Chen Jiuyang, he wouldn't dare to target the Lin family and take revenge on Chen Jiuyang by killing them.
Chen Jiuyang said, "I'll call the Zhu family and see if they can mediate."
The Zhu family of Feng City represented the military and maintained the underworld, protecting the peaceful lives of ordinary people. Even aristocratic families like the Yao family had to pay homage to the Zhu family.
Although the Zhu family did not have particularly great strength or power, they were a symbol.
Chen Jiuyang called Zhu Jianjun, "Second Uncle, you must know my situation by now."
Zhu Jianjun chuckled, "Your name, Chen Jiuyang, is known throughout the land overnight. Who in Feng Province doesn't know of your peerless genius now? And you've fallen out with Xi Butui. This matter is difficult to resolve."
Chen Jiuyang said with a wry smile, "If it's absolutely necessary, who dares to fall out with the Chief Constable of the Six Doors? Second Uncle, I need to trouble you with something."
Zhu Jianjun said, "You speak. You saved my old man's life and treated my hidden injuries. My Zhu family owes you a favor. As long as it's something we can do, my Zhu family will not hesitate."
"Second Uncle is straightforward," Chen Jiuyang said, "I am worried that Xi Butui will retaliate for personal grudges and seize the Yao family's assets. I would like to ask Second Uncle to keep an eye on the Yao family's assets."
Zhu Jianjun pondered for a moment and said, "Jiuyang, my Zhu family is not skilled in such matters. However, I can get your people some special military identities, which will allow them to move around Feng City more conveniently and not be targeted by the Six Doors."
Chen Jiuyang's eyes lit up, "Then I thank Second Uncle for your help."
With the cover of military identities, there would be no worries. In the Dragon Kingdom, you could insult celebrities, tycoons, and civil officials, but you must never insult soldiers.
They were the soul of the Dragon Kingdom.
It was also because Chen Jiuyang had stayed in the Sharp Blade Legion for a year and saved countless soldiers that the Zhu family felt close to him and had a good impression of him. This allowed him to contact the Zhu family and save Elder Zhu.
In the middle of the night, Xi Butui, with a grim expression, arrived outside the Feng Han Hou Mansion and angrily cursed, "Good for you, you little beast. Do you think bringing your family to the Feng Han Hou Mansion will solve everything?"
"Do you really think I, Xi Butui, am easy to bully!"
