C44 Mayor Arrived!!

The Mayor has arrived!

"Young Lord?"

A soft, vulnerable voice suddenly pierced the air.

Qin Feng's anger halted for a moment as his eyes snapped to the source of the sound.

Ling Er, her eyes brimming with tears, rushed out from a room.

Her face was marred by tear tracks, and her beautiful eyes were puffy and red, a clear sign of distress.

Fortunately, her clothes were untouched, indicating Lin Xu hadn't violated her—a fact that greatly eased Qin Feng's mind.

"Ling Er!"

With a powerful kick, Qin Feng sent Lin Xu sprawling and swiftly enveloped Ling Er in a protective hug.

Inhaling her scent, Qin Feng's heart finally settled.

"Ling Er, are you okay?"

Noting the residual fear on Ling Er's face, Qin Feng asked with a blend of heartache and concern.

"I'm fine, Young Lord... It's such a relief that you're safe!"

Ling Er's worry was for Qin Feng rather than herself, which only intensified the pang in his heart.

"Take him! Should he resist, kill him without hesitation!"

The group hoisted the groveling Lin Xu to his feet. Qin Yunhai's voice roared with uncontrollable rage at the sight of Lin Xu's desperate state.

"Yes, sir!"

The Qin family guards unsheathed their weapons and charged toward Qin Feng.

"Ling Er, get behind me!"

Qin Feng shielded Ling Er with his body, his sword clutched tightly, his tone calm.

It was time to show them the true extent of his power.

Qin Feng's eyes narrowed, the Invincible Sword Intent within him primed to explode.

As long as Ling Er was safe, his ties to the Qin family no longer mattered; he had long since felt no sense of belonging there.

A monumental battle was about to erupt.

Suddenly, a thunderous laugh rang out from afar, "Qin Yunhai, what's all this commotion about?"

The voice, as commanding as a tiger's, carried a staggering power that shook the spirit.

An entourage of armored guards followed, surrounding a middle-aged man who strode forward with an air of authority.

His posture was as straight as a lance, and despite being in his forties or fifties, he exuded the energy of a much younger man.

As the man approached, Qin Feng felt a subtle shift within himself. He carefully lowered his sword, positioning himself protectively in front of Ling Er with a serene composure.

"Mayor, to what do we owe the pleasure of your visit?" At the sight of the dignified middle-aged man, Qin Yunhai's complexion turned ashen. He quickly bowed deeply, his attitude betraying his anxiety.

"I've come without an invitation, but circumstances necessitated it," the Mayor said to Qin Yunhai, his smile warm but his eyes intently focused on Qin Feng.

Ye Tian was none other than the Mayor of Tiangang City!

Qin Feng knew him well; Ye Tian was not only his father's trusted friend.

In his previous life, after escaping the Qin family, Qin Feng had heard that Ye Tian had sought justice from them, insisting that Qin Yunhai hand him over.

It was for this reason that Qin Feng felt a profound gratitude toward him.

"We'll need to take Qin Feng into custody now. Afterwards, we can celebrate with a banquet in your honor."

"Qin Yunhai, are you genuinely unaware, or are you pretending not to know?" Ye Tian's lips curled into a sly half-smile as he scrutinized Qin Yunhai, clearly harboring ulterior motives.

"Mayor, I'm at a loss. What exactly are you suggesting?" Qin Yunhai's heart raced with nervousness, and he forced a tense smile, seeking clarification.
