Chapter 162: Set on Establishing Might

”You demon! Committing a crime together with an Evil Beast in bright daylight! Bring them down!”

After the loud shout, there were hurried footsteps. Dozens of soldiers scattered the crowd. Holding swords and sabers in their hands, they surrounded Junior Leopard and Little Du. Additionally, there were dozens of archers surrounding the outer perimeter. The arrows were strung on the bow and were pointing at Junior Leopard and Little Du. Looking at this situation, the arrows would fly if they made any movement.

There was still a smile plastered on Junior Leopard's face. His eyes flashed a cold glint. He extended his hands and lightly patted the somewhat agitated Little Du to calm it down.

”Da, da, da...!”

The sound of horse hooves rang. Junior Leopard lifted up his head and saw a majestic Black Awl Horse. On the horse was a young master whose face was like jade. He snobbishly looked down on the person and the wolf. When his eyes landed on Little Du, his eyes were unable to conceal the excitement and greed.

”Mis, mistake! It's a mistake!” The soldier who was laying limp on the floor suddenly climbed up and raised both his hands, ”Third Young Master, Third Young Master, it's really a mistake, a mistake...!”

”Mistake?” The Third Young Master's eyebrows furrowed, ”What mistake?”

”Third Young Master, it's a mistake!” The soldier said frantically, ”This is the new Navy Commander, His Excellency Zhou. He's here to assume his post in Jiang City!”

”Newly appointed Navy Commander?!” Third Young Master frowned. The tense atmosphere in the surrounding also eased a little. However, this Third Young Master seemed to be unconvinced and he stared at Junior Leopard, ”Him, the new Navy Commander? Ma Laizi, are you deceived by him?”

”No, no, Third Young Master. His Excellency Zhou has the official seal from Admiral Li. It can't be wrong!”

”What official seal? Show it to me!”

”This...!” Ma Laizi's face revealed a troubled expression. He had just returned the official seal to Junior Leopard. Now that the Third Young Master wanted to see it, he could only turn around with a grimace and ask Junior Leopard, ”Your Excellency Zhou, you see...!”

Junior Leopard lifted his head and looked at the Third Young Master with some interest. Even though this person was haughty and arrogant, his cultivation was not bad. At an age of 16-17, he had already reached Level Three. Even though he could not match Junior Leopard, he could be considered the top amongst his peers. Looking at him, his position must not be small in Jiang City. He probably was the son of Garrison in the province. If not, he could not have the military might to command these soldiers. All these soldiers were from the military background and had been trained. They were much stronger than the yamen runners in the County Administration and those at the city gate. There were even two of them who emitted bloodlust. They obviously had gone on the battlefield and killed people before.

When Third Young Master saw Junior Leopard looking over, he stared back in defiance, ”Where is the official seal? Bring it over!”

”Who are you?!” Junior Leopard steadily stood there and asked softly.

Hearing this question, Third Young Master gave no reply but a cold snort. Following his cold snort, a wave of strong Qi force came sweeping over from his body.

”A joke!” Junior Leopard felt his Qi Power and coldly smiled. He didn't make any movement. His heart moved and Little Du who had originally been calmed down by him jerked forward. Its Qi Power exploded and it raised its head, ”Howl---!”

A wolf howl rang out, as if there was a jolt of lightning striking from above the sky. It shook the surroundings. This howl not only blocked the Third Young Master's Qi Power completely, but also shocked the people till they fell over and the horses flipped. The soldiers were also stunned by the howl. Each of them dropped their weapons because their limbs went limp. Even those soldiers who had gone to the battlefield to kill before were no exception. The surrounding archers were even worse. It was because their arrows had been fully strung when Little Du howled, and they were shocked to the point that they let loose their hands. Dozens of arrows flew from the string and went straight for Junior Leopard.

Junior Leopard only smiled coldly. He remained impassive. Little Du's silver fur expanded and easily shielded Junior Leopard. All the arrows hit its body. This Little Du had an ancient bloodline and had long gained a body of bronze skin and steel bones. Even wizard weapons and sharp weapons were unable to cause any damage to it, let alone a few ordinary arrows. Those arrows produced metal clanging sounds when hitting its body. Arrows with greater force created sparks, while those without strength only touched its fur before dropping to the floor.

”You dare to openly attack the imperial court's official in broad daylight. Furthermore, we're within the city, you're wearing the clothing of officers and soldiers and wielding the army's weapons. Who gave you all such balls? Are you all planning on revolting?!”
