The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 495: Chapter 504 Kneeling to Apologize【Five Updates】

”Does King Ye have any further commands?” Long Tianhao asked, his voice trembling as he looked at Ye Feng.

In the Martial Arts World, the title of ’king’ was reserved for legendary figures, those who had achieved the status of Martial Arts King, also known as Martial King. Given that Ye Feng bore the surname Ye, it was only fitting for others to address him as ”King Ye”!

”Kneel down!” Ye Feng ordered coldly. Everyone’s legs went weak at his command, and they all knelt down. A Grandmaster must not be insulted, and a king must not be deceived.

”Bang! Bang! Bang!” The once unassailable Grandmasters were now kneeling before Ye Feng, one after the other.

Ye Feng said coldly, ”Kowtow, beg for mercy, admit your faults, and I will spare your lives!”

At that moment, Long Tianhao furrowed his brows. It was a complete trampling of their dignity. They had already knelt, yet Ye Feng was demanding that they kowtow and confess their errors. How could they bear it?

Long Tianhao exploded with rage, ”Ye Feng, do not push us too far! We have already kneeled, what more do you want? By trampling on our dignity this way, we’d rather die. I don’t believe you have the audacity to kill so many Grandmasters. If you do, prepare to incite the discontent of the Martial Arts World of Dragon Country! Then, the hidden Grandmasters and powerful Martial Arts Families will have the right to intervene and kill you!”

”Excessive? Pushing it too far?” Ye Feng sneered and replied to Long Tianhao, ”I ask you, Long Tianhao, why did the Jiang Family come here?”

”It’s because you crippled Jiang Haoyuan’s cultivation!” said Long Tianhao.

”Correct! But I crippled his cultivation because he coveted my cultivation method. In public, he threatened me to hand it over. Not killing him was already my mercy. Yet, the Jiang Family got greedy, daring to come here and trouble me! Even if I killed all the Grandmasters present today, what fault would there be?” Ye Feng loudly challenged.

Everyone was stunned. Indeed, this was the case. The Jiang Family had been too arrogant. Snooping on others’ cultivation methods was a major taboo in the Martial Arts World. Not only were the Jiang Family unreasonable, but they also dare seek revenge, indeed deserving death.

Long Tianhao argued, ”The people of the Jiang Family indeed deserve it, but what about my brother? He had no grudges with you. Though he might have been a bit arrogant daily, he was not a bad person. You killed him; shouldn’t I seek revenge?”

”Ridiculous!” Ye Feng scoffed. ”Your brother deserved to die. Today, I was teaching martial techniques behind Longdu University, and he stumbled upon it. Not only did he not avoid it, but he also secretly learned from it! I had tolerated all that yet, audaciously, he came out, criticizing that my martial techniques were wrong! I tolerated his presence and his theft, but what right did Long Tianxing have to criticize me?

A mere Grandmaster, presuming to lecture a legend—a sure death! Secretly learning is a serious crime, an everlasting rule in the Martial Arts World. Even if killed, there should be no grounds for revenge! That’s the first reason for his death!

Encountering a teaching and not avoiding, that’s the second reason!

Criticizing the martial techniques I created, an act of insubordination, is the third reason!”

These three reasons, each striking Long Tianhao’s chest like a heavy hammer.

He had never dreamed his brother would do such a thing.

Ye Feng challenged loudly, ”Long Tianxing secretly learned and was insubordinate, a capital offense! Your Long Family broke the rules by seeking revenge and further broke the taboo. Does your Long Family truly think I, Ye Feng, am easy to bully?”

Ye Feng’s voice echoed instantaneously, overwhelming everyone like an invisible torrent, impacting them directly, with Long Tianhao taking the brunt.

”Ah!” Unable to hold back, Long Tianhao spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, pain evident in his eyes.

”How could this be... how could this be?” Long Tianhao could not accept it. If true, even if Ye Feng killed all of them, to many in the Martial Arts World, the Long Family would have had it coming.

”If you don’t believe it, ask Long Tianxing’s granddaughter whether it is so!” Ye Feng said coldly, then turned to look at Long Xinyue.

Long Tianhao’s eyes filled with hope as he asked Long Xinyue, ”Tell your great-grandfather, is it true? Is it as Ye Feng says?”

Trembling, Long Xinyue struggled to speak, ”This... can’t be blamed on grandfather. He just saw the younger generation practicing and spontaneously wanted to offer some pointers. It really wasn’t intentional...”

”Phew!” Upon hearing Long Xinyue’s words, Long Tianhao, overwhelmed by anger, couldn’t help but spurt another mouthful of blood, his spirit withering as if he had aged decades in moments.

This was just courting death. Ye Feng, a legendary Martial King, didn’t need Long Tianxing, a mere Grandmaster, to give pointers.

Ye Feng said indifferently, ”Bow your heads, admit your mistakes; this is the last chance I’m giving you.”

Long Tianhao’s face turned ashen, and he bowed his head heavily toward Ye Feng, knocking it against the ground three times.

”Bang! Bang! Bang!” Each knock resounded loudly as it hit the ground.

Then, Long Tianhao said, ”I am sorry, I have offended King Ye, please forgive me...”

”Bang! Bang! Bang!” Following that, the other Grandmasters, following Long Tianhao’s lead, knelt before Ye Feng, each knocking their heads three times on the ground, shouting in unison, ”We recognize our errors, please forgive us, King Ye...”

”Please forgive us, King Ye!” The Grandmasters from the Jiang Family also shouted.

Witnessing this scene, the Gao Family was shocked, gaping, unable to believe their eyes—it felt like a dream. After all, these were thirty Grandmasters.

So many Grandmasters, kneeling before Ye Feng, apologizing, begging for his forgiveness.

Such a scene, so shocking, so hard to accept.

And inside, Long Tianhao felt an immense shame, but he had no choice. To save their lives, they had to do this; otherwise, none of them could walk out of the Gao Family’s gates today.

Seeing this, Gao Tianshou felt incredibly relieved. Luckily, he had desperately maintained his relationship with Ye Feng. Otherwise, at this moment, Gao Tianshou might have been overwhelmed with depression.

Gao Tianshou was also incredibly excited. With Ye Feng around, the Gao Family might soon surpass the other top families and become the strongest among Longdu’s top five elite families.

Then Ye Feng, looking at Long Tianhao and the others, said, ”Quickly leave. You have one minute!”
