Chapter 46 – Your dignity, I will protect!
Chapter 46 – Your dignity, I will protect!
Inwardly cursing his mother, Gu Feng maintained a calm exterior, trying his best not to lose composure.
Fang Feixue was momentarily stunned, her mind in turmoil, unsure of what to do!
Stepping forward to block Fang Feixue, Gu Feng pursed his lips and said seriously, "Commander Yan, I'm sorry, Feixue has family duties to attend to, so catching up isn't convenient."
"Duties?"
Yan Wushuang was annoyed inside but asked as usual, "Feixue, is that so? What duties do you have?"
"Brother Yan, I..." Fang Feixue was at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond.
Seeing the two exchange glances, Gu Feng felt a surge of anger.
My woman! How dare you openly try to take her?!
Who do you think you are?!
Gu Feng's face darkened as he coldly said, "Her duty is to stay by my side!"
The atmosphere instantly turned icy cold.
Yan Wushuang clenched his fists, wishing he could kill Gu Feng right there on the street.
But he dared not, and could not!
Setting aside Gu Feng's status in Heroic Spirit City, any slight disrespect towards him might incur the wrath of Jiang Aonan from the City Lord's mansion!
"Young Master Gu, you must be joking!" Yan Wushuang suppressed his anger and forced a smile.
"Who's joking with you?!"
Gu Feng arrogantly scolded him, forcibly taking Fang Feixue's hand again, saying, "Fang Feixue is the chief commander of the Royal Guards in Heroic Spirit City, and her primary duty is to ensure my safety!"
His words were righteous and seemed reasonable, yet the two holding hands looked very much like a young couple.
Yan Wushuang was speechless, feeling as if a thousand barrels of vinegar had been spilled inside him, so sour it was unbearable!
"You little wench! How dare you!"
Suddenly, an angry shout came from not far away, drawing the attention of the entire night market street.
A passing cultivator saw Yan Wushuang standing there in a daze and quickly ran over anxiously, "Oh, Commander Yan, good thing you're here, you should go take a look, Flower Child has caused big trouble!"
Yan Wushuang snapped back to reality and immediately rushed over upon hearing this.
Hearing the words "Flower Child," Gu Feng also had a bad feeling and quickly dragged the dazed Fang Feixue along.
The three squeezed into the chaotic crowd one after another.
It was the little girl who had just sold flowers to Gu Feng, now sitting on the ground with tears streaming down her face. Beside her was a shattered jar of medicine, the milky white liquid spilled all over.
In her hands, she clutched a large bundle tightly, treating it like a treasure, unwilling to let go.
A young man in a gold-embroidered red robe looked at her arrogantly, while a tall, burly man beside him sneered wildly.
"You blind little wench! You spilled medicine all over my young master! Do you know your crime?!"
The burly man cursed arrogantly, his face full of disdain.
Flower Child hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, "Please forgive me, young master, I was blind and offended you! Please spare me!"
"Hmph!"
The young man snorted coldly, kicking the kneeling Flower Child to the ground. Her bundle fell, revealing a pile of Beginner Grade Spirit Stones!
Flower Child often came to sell flowers, and Yan Wushuang, seeing her plight, would often help her out, making them acquaintances over time.
Seeing her in trouble, Yan Wushuang couldn't just stand by, so he cupped his hands and said, "Young Master Murong, could you spare this girl for my sake?"
Murong Shen smiled faintly, pacing back and forth, sizing up the dignified Yan Wushuang, and coldly laughed, "Commander Yan, forgive my bluntness, but do you have any face with me?"
With these words, Yan Wushuang's face immediately darkened, glaring angrily.
"What? You want to strike at me, Young Master?"
Murong Shen arrogantly stepped forward, pointing at Yan Wushuang's nose and cursing, "Know your place! You're just a commander of the Imperial City's subordinate army! To put it bluntly, you're just a watchdog for the Twelve Imperial City families! What right do you have to ask me for face? Ridiculous! Hahaha!"
Yan Wushuang's body trembled slightly, all his pride vanished at that moment.
Was Murong Shen wrong?!
He wasn't!
Facing the families of the Twelve Imperial Cities, Yan Wushuang could only choose to feign compliance, to bow and scrape silently!
It was the same with Murong Shen, and the same with Gu Feng!
If he acted against Murong Shen now, for any reason, he would surely face severe punishment from the Jiang family!
Just a watchdog...
These words pierced deeply into his heart, leaving Yan Wushuang feeling powerless and defeated!
Helping Flower Child up from the ground, Fang Feixue angrily said, "Brother Yan! Let's teach these two villains a lesson together! Even if it reaches City Lord Jiang, isn't Gu Feng still here? Why should we fear him?!"

"Uh..." Gu Feng was taken aback, deeply admiring Fang Feixue's bizarre logic, using him as a shield! He couldn't help but cover his face, laughing and crying...
"Feixue, I'm sorry, I can't..."
Yan Wushuang had lost all fighting spirit, shaking his head silently.
He felt the eyes of everyone mocking and ridiculing him, knowing he had the strength to act and uphold justice, but he couldn't, and dared not!
"Hahahaha!"
Laughing wildly, Murong Shen looked at Fang Feixue, his eyes filled with undisguised desire, licking his lips, he wickedly smiled, "What a beautiful thorny rose! Why not come with me to Fire Phoenix City and be a concubine?!"
As he spoke, he reached out towards Fang Feixue's chest.
"Clang!"
In a flash, everyone saw a silver light flash by!
Murong Shen was stunned, then suddenly felt a sharp pain!
"Ah! My hand!"
His outstretched right arm had been severed, blood gushing out, leaving a beautiful arc in the sky.
Murong Shen's face twisted in agony, rolling on the ground in pain!
Kicking away Murong Shen's severed arm, Gu Feng stood in front of Fang Feixue and Flower Child.
In the night breeze, his white robe fluttered, and the Bright Moon Shuttle slowly revolved around him.
"From now on, your dignity, I, Gu Feng, will protect!"
Turning his head slowly, Gu Feng smiled gently at Fang Feixue.
