Urban Supreme Wild Son-in-Law War God

Chapter 172 The Arrogant Lord

The Eastern Overlord's gaze turned towards Ye Ling and the others not far away.

He opened his mouth to ask, "Commander He, may I know which one of you is the Northern Liao King?"

He Feng pointed at Ye Ling.

The Eastern Overlord immediately walked up to Ye Ling, his expression respectful as he said, "I am the Eastern Overlord from the East Sea, I have the honor to meet the Northern Liao King!"

"May I ask if the Northern Liao King here is the old Northern Liao King, or the newly appointed Northern Liao King from the imperial capital?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Dao and several others all had a change in expression.

Ever since Ye Ling was framed and imprisoned three years ago, the imperial capital had intended to dispatch another person to Northern Liao to take over Ye Ling's position as the Northern Liao King.

But what place was Northern Liao, after all? Aside from Ye Ling, the Northern Liao army recognized no other.

Yet, the fact that the Eastern Overlord was saying such words now was undoubtedly a provocation to Chen Dao and the others.

Before Chen Dao and the others could get angry, Ye Ling said with a smile, "I wonder, apart from myself, from where does this second Northern Liao King come?"

At these words, the Eastern Overlord's expression suddenly became stilted.

He evidently had not expected Ye Ling to not only avoid answering his question but to counter with such a statement.

This question was indeed a thorny one; even though he was the Eastern Overlord, if his answer did not satisfy the Northern Liao King before him, he would face the Northern Liao King's wrath.

If it were the old Northern Liao King, Ye Ling, that would be one thing.

After all, Ye Ling was imprisoned in chains three years ago, and even if he were released now, he was ultimately nothing more than a defeated dog of Northern Liao.

With the Eastern Overlord's status in the East Sea, he could completely ignore the other's anger.

However, if the person before him were the new Northern Liao King appointed by the imperial capital, then the matter would not be easy to handle.

Anyone sent by the imperial capital to take over Northern Liao would surely have some significant backing, wouldn't they?

Arousing the ire of such a being, even an overlord of the East Sea, would find it hard to bear the other party's wrath.

As the Eastern Overlord fell into a dilemma, one of the two elders he had brought with him immediately stepped to his side and whispered a few words.

Upon hearing this, a look of scorn appeared in the Eastern Overlord's eyes.

He looked at Ye Ling and said, "You must be Ye Ling, right?"

Seeing his arrogant demeanor, Ye Ling shook his head and smiled lightly, saying, "Uttering insults against a king, according to the Dragon Nation's rules, should be punished by death!"

As his voice fell, Chen Dao, who had already been unable to restrain his killing intent, charged at the Eastern Lord.

The two old men behind the Eastern Lord also sprang into action immediately, one of them confronting Chen Dao directly.

Upon seeing this, He Feng also rushed toward the Eastern Lord, while the other old man moved to meet He Feng.

All four were at the peak of Great Grandmaster level, their ferocious aura fully displayed without a doubt.

The four exchanged blows in an instant, with the terrifying aura unique to Great Grandmasters erupting continuously from their bodies, sweeping across the entire garden.

For a moment, the vegetation in the garden was sent flying, and the delicate flowers were ruthlessly destroyed by the violent energy emanating from the four Great Grandmasters.

Meanwhile, Wu Youwei and Manager Shen, tied up in the not too distant council hall, revealed smiles upon hearing the commotion outside.

"Commander Wu, it looks like the Eastern Lord has arrived!"

"These reckless fools, stirring up such a huge commotion, they must be clashing with people of the Eastern Lord!"

"Utterly courting death, daring to make a move against the Eastern Lord in the Eastern Sea, I wonder what kind of death the Dark Lords under him will grant them?"

Manager Shen said with a big laugh, his arrogant laughter as if he had already witnessed the gruesome fate of Ye Ling and the others.

But Wu Youwei's brows were slightly furrowed, filled with concern.

Ye Ling and the others had brazenly entered the Eastern Sea military headquarters and now were even directly clashing with the powerful ones under the Eastern Lord.

So fearless and assured, how could Ye Ling and his companions possibly be ordinary people!

"Commander Wu, when you become the son-in-law of the Eastern Lord in the future, don't forget about me!"

Seeing that Wu Youwei was not responding, Manager Shen laughed and spoke again.

Wu Youwei had no mind to pay attention to him, his thoughts entirely on the individuals fighting outside.

"That's easy to say..."

Wu Youwei responded indifferently, once again listening intently to the noises from outside.

But at this moment, the sounds of fighting from outside had ceased, and silence was restored. Find more to read at empire

For some reason, Wu Youwei had a bad premonition and was eager to go out and see what the situation was.
