165: Then let's go to the ninth floor.
Qin Feng's words, so indifferent they were almost cold, sounded like a final judgment.
"I do not like dogs barking wildly at my front door."
As the words fell.
Zhou Yang, who was already scared out of his mind with his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, suddenly jerked. His survival instinct forced out a pig-slaughtering scream!
"No! Senior, have mercy! My father is Zhou Tianxiong, the Chairman of the Danyang Chamber of Commerce! You cannot..."
His threat came to an abrupt end.
Because Qin Feng's gaze had already moved away from him and landed on Shopkeeper Qian, who was kneeling on the ground.
That look seemed to ask: What are you still waiting for?
Shopkeeper Qian trembled all over, as if struck by lightning!
He knew this was the last chance the Senior was giving him!
Whether to redeem himself through service or be buried with this idiot was decided in a single thought!
"Yes! Senior!"
Shopkeeper Qian felt as if he had received a great pardon. He roared as he scrambled up from the ground, his originally shrewd face now filled with ferocity and madness.
He barked at the group of silver-armored restaurant Guards behind him, who were already so terrified their limbs had gone soft.
"What are you still standing there for?! Did you not hear Senior's command?!"
"Break both legs of this barking dog right where he stands!!"
The Silver-Armored Guards snapped out of it. Looking at the maddened Shopkeeper Qian and then at the indifferent black-robed youth, their desire for survival overcame their fear of the Danyang Chamber of Commerce!
"Yes!"
A fierce light flashed in the eyes of two Late Stage Golden Core Guards. They strode forward like shooting stars toward Zhou Yang, who was already slumped on the ground!
"No! How dare you!"
Zhou Yang screamed in terror, crawling backward with hands and feet.
"My father is Zhou Tianxiong! If you touch me, the Danyang Chamber of Commerce will absolutely never let you go!!"
However, his threat seemed so pale and powerless at this moment.
The Guards did not hesitate in the slightest.
One of them stomped down hard on Zhou Yang's ankle!
The other raised the long halberd in his hand high, aiming the heavy shaft of the weapon at his knee!
"Ah—!!"
In that instant, Zhou Yang's pupils shrank to the size of pinheads!
Crack!
A tooth-aching sound of bone shattering echoed through the deathly silent street!
Immediately followed.
By another sound.
Crack!
"Aaaaaahhh—!!!"
Zhou Yang's shrill scream, which no longer sounded human, finally tore through the tranquility of Tianbao City.
He was like a dead fish out of water, twitching and twisting frantically on the ground. His originally handsome face became hideous and terrifying due to the extreme pain.
On both sides of the street, all those kneeling on the ground trembled even more violently.
They had witnessed it with their own eyes.
The Young Lord of the Danyang Chamber of Commerce, that Second-generation Ancestor who dared to walk with his head held high even in the Southern Region of the Eastern Wasteland, had his legs broken in broad daylight just like that!
And the instigator.
The black-robed youth had not even blinked from beginning to end.
He simply held his three impossibly beautiful wives, acting as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with him.
"Let's go."
Qin Feng spoke indifferently, as if he had merely stepped on a bothersome ant.
"Let's go in and eat."
He embraced The Three Women and walked into the Immortal Qi-shrouded Qiongming Jade Tower with a leisurely pace.
Leaving behind only.
A deathly silence across the street.
A piece of trash wailing and twitching on the ground.
A group of shivering Guards.
And that god-like back which, in the hearts of countless people, became increasingly towering and unfathomable.
Lin Yao followed behind Qin Feng, took a quiet look back, then quickly turned back and whispered to Qin Feng.
"Senior Brother, you're so fierce."
She said it with her mouth, but her bright eyes sparkled with admiration and excitement.
"Is that so?"
Qin Feng lowered his head, kissed her small face, and smiled mischievously.
"Then does Yaoer Baby like it?"
Lin Yao's face flushed. She buried her head in his chest and gave a soft 'mm' in a voice as tiny as a mosquito's buzz.
Meanwhile, Ye Nianxin, who was by his side, pulled on Qin Feng's sleeve with some worry.
"Junior Brother, will that Danyang Chamber of Commerce..."
"Don't worry."
Qin Feng held her soft, jade-like hand, the smile on his face filled with absolute confidence.
"His scream is just an appetizer for us today."
"The main course is still to come."
Inside the Qiongming Jade Tower, there was a whole different world.
Spiritual Qi transformed into visible white mist, swirling among the carved beams and painted rafters.
The floor was paved with warm spirit jade, the walls were embedded with bright luminous pearls, and even the air was filled with a faint fragrance emitted by various rare spiritual plants.
Shopkeeper Qian followed behind on all fours like the most humble servant.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he introduced cautiously.
"Senior, this tower has nine floors in total, each with different scenery and functions."
"The first floor is the reception hall, the second floor has open seating, and the third to eighth floors are all independent private rooms equipped with soundproofing and Spirit Gathering Formations."
"The ninth floor is called the 'Star-Grabbing Terrace.' It is the highest point in all of Tianbao City, offering a panoramic view of the entire city."
"Normally, only big figures at the level of City Lords are qualified to ascend there."
His words were filled with flattery and fawning.
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng did not stop his pace and walked directly toward the upper floors.
"Then we shall go to the ninth floor."
"Yes! Yes! Senior, this way please!"
Shopkeeper Qian hurriedly led the way in front.
Lin Yao was like a curious cat, looking here and touching there, her small face full of wonder.
"Wow! Senior Brother, this place is even more grand than the City Lord's Mansion!"
Ye Nianxin's beautiful eyes also flickered, secretly shocked by the luxury here.
Only Zhao Muxue's expression remained cold, as if none of this could enter the Dharma Eye of a Tribulation Crossing Great Power like her.
However, the slight upward curve of her lips still betrayed her good mood at the moment.
Soon, the four of them arrived at the ninth floor, the Star-Grabbing Terrace.
This was a completely open platform, with a field of vision that was broad to the extreme.
Leaning against the railing and looking into the distance, the entire magnificent Tianbao City was presented beneath them like a giant sandbox.
Buildings arranged like fish scales, a never-ending stream of people, and the continuous mountain ranges in the distance were all in full view.
A breeze brushed past, blowing the hair and skirt hems of The Three Women. With their clothes fluttering, they looked like Fairies from a painting.
"Not bad."
Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Qian quickly bowed and said.
"Senior, I have already given orders for the best Spirit Chef in the tower to prepare the top-tier banquet!"
"Please wait a moment, Senior and three Madams. It will be ready shortly!"
However, Qin Feng waved his hand.
"No need."
