Chapter 614: Chapter 614: So the Clown Was Actually Me

Cheng Yuan couldn’t be bothered to argue with Yi Chen. He took out his phone and dialed Xuanyuan Potian’s number. The call was answered instantly, and Xuanyuan Potian’s deferential voice came through.

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Potian, do you have any contacts in the Luocheng Defense Zone? I’ve run into a bit of trouble and need you to arrange for someone to come to the East Japan Consulate in Luocheng."

"What a coincidence. I’m currently inspecting the Luocheng Defense Zone. I’ll come over myself and be there within ten minutes. In fact, I was planning to report to you, Young Master, after my inspection. I’ve made some progress on the matter you asked me to investigate."

"Alright. I’ll be waiting."

Cheng Yuan hung up and said coolly, "My people will be here within ten minutes. If you all stand down now, I can pretend this never happened."

Yi Chen rolled his eyes, exasperated, and asked coldly, "Kid, I suggest that before you call for backup, you first find out who you’re dealing with. Save yourself the embarrassment later."

Cheng Yuan asked coolly, "Quite confident, are you? It seems you have some powerful connections."

Yi Chen lifted his head proudly. His adjutant beside him said in a deep voice, "Kid, you better listen up! Our Commander Yi is our captain’s own uncle! In Luocheng, no matter who you call, it’ll be useless!"

Lin Jianqiang and the special officers’ faces paled. ’This kid’s background is that powerful?!’

’Even if their Director came in person, he wouldn’t stand a chance!’

’Mr. Cheng is in danger now!’

Cheng Yuan, however, didn’t seem to take Yi Chen seriously at all. He said coolly, "If I were you, I’d be a bit more low-key and stop causing trouble for your uncle. What if you provoke someone you can’t afford to offend? Wouldn’t that be dragging your uncle down with you?"

Yi Chen snorted coldly. "There are indeed people in this world I can’t afford to offend, but not in Luocheng! Kid, you’re at death’s door and you still dare to bluff?"

’Bluffing?’

Heh heh...

Cheng Yuan said coolly, "I’m only giving you this one chance. I hope you take it. When my people get here, I’m afraid you’ll have to kneel before me."

Yi Chen was utterly speechless. He simply turned away, not wanting to bother with an arrogant poser like Cheng Yuan.

A few minutes later, Yi Chen checked his watch, turned, and said coldly, "It’s almost been ten minutes. Kid, where are your people? Did they chicken out?"

The moment he finished speaking, the roar of a powerful engine sounded from outside!

An army-green jeep sped into the consulate grounds!

Seeing the car’s license plate, Yi Chen’s eyes lit up. He looked at Cheng Yuan with a mocking gaze. "Kid, your backup hasn’t arrived, but mine has! To think you actually managed to bother my uncle! You’re dead today!"

With that, Yi Chen eagerly trotted forward, intending to open the car door for his uncle.

However, to Yi Chen’s surprise, his uncle wasn’t sitting in the seat behind the driver, but in the front passenger seat.

Moreover, his uncle, Yi Feng, was even faster than him.

Yi Feng nimbly got out of the car, an obsequious look on his face as he pulled open the rear door. He diligently placed the back of his hand against the top of the doorframe and said respectfully, "Xuanyuan War God, please exit the vehicle."

Xuanyuan Potian stepped out of the car with a dignified expression, his icy gaze sweeping over the chaotic scene.

Xuanyuan Potian’s aura was overwhelming. Yi Chen couldn’t help but draw in a sharp breath!

’So this is the Xuanyuan War God?!’

’What a powerful presence!’

Yi Chen looked at Xuanyuan Potian with a gaze full of awe and reverence!

’This is the kind of bearing the supreme commander of the Southeast Defense Zone, the Divine Needle that stabilizes the Dongshan and Nanshan Provinces, should have!’

Yi Chen subconsciously straightened his back and gave Xuanyuan Potian a standard military salute!

"Yi Chen, Captain of the Flying Tiger Team, Luocheng Defense Zone, reporting to the Xuanyuan War God!"

During the inspection, Yi Feng had mentioned his nephew several times, saying he was promising material.

Xuanyuan Potian had originally intended to promote Yi Chen, but now, unsure of what had happened, his attitude was somewhat cold.

"Why are our Warriors in a standoff with the police? What happened?"

"Reporting to the War God, someone murdered the consul in the consulate. He then made arrogant boasts about calling people to smooth things over! Rest assured, Xuanyuan War God! I will handle this impartially! This way, please!"

With that, Yi Chen took the initiative to lead Xuanyuan Potian.

The distance in Xuanyuan Potian’s eyes became even more apparent. He stopped speaking to Yi Chen, let out a cold snort, and strode forward!

Yi Chen thought Xuanyuan Potian was angry at the suspect, and his spirits were instantly lifted!

’Kid, the Xuanyuan War God is here. Let’s see you act so arrogant now!’

Along the way, the Warriors parted to clear a path, allowing the three of them to walk to the center of the area.

Yi Chen took two steps forward and said with bombastic arrogance, "Kid, open your dog eyes and look carefully! This is the Xuanyuan War God, the supreme commander of our Southeast Defense Zone! No matter how badass the person you called is, they’ll have to grovel before the Xuanyuan War God! The War God is right in front of you, and you still haven’t paid your respects?!"

’The Xuanyuan War God?’

Lin Jianqiang and the other officers nearly pissed themselves in fear!

They were all trembling uncontrollably!

’It shouldn’t have come to this, right?’

’For a small matter like this, there was no need to trouble the great Xuanyuan War God!’

’This is bad. Forget our Director Wu, even if Chief Commissioner Zhu from the Provincial City came, he’d be nothing in front of the Xuanyuan War God!’

’What do we do now?’

Just as Lin Jianqiang and the officers were in utter despair, Cheng Yuan’s voice sounded, "I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you. This Xuanyuan War God is not worthy of my respects."

Yi Chen was ecstatic. ’This kid is unbelievably arrogant!’

’But this arrogance is a good thing!’

’It gives me a chance to suck up to the Xuanyuan War God!’

Yi Chen immediately leaped out, pointed at Cheng Yuan’s nose, and cursed, "Kid, how dare you disrespect the Xuanyuan War God! You’re dead! Men! Seize this bastard for me—"

Halfway through his sentence, Yi Chen’s words caught in his throat.

Because Xuanyuan Potian had suddenly strode in front of Cheng Yuan, knelt on one knee, and exclaimed loudly, "Greetings, Young Master!!"

Huh?

Yi Chen was dumbfounded!

Yi Feng was dumbfounded!

All the Warriors and officers were also dumbfounded. They stared at Xuanyuan Potian with disbelief, completely unable to understand why he would suddenly kneel to Cheng Yuan!

And he even called Cheng Yuan "Young Master"!

Yi Feng’s scalp went numb. The Xuanyuan War God was ranked in the top twenty of the entire Dragon Country Battle Department, yet he had to call this man "Young Master." Just who was this young man?

Yi Feng instantly understood. His nephew had courted a massive disaster!

Yi Feng took two steps forward, slapped Yi Chen twice, hard, and berated him, "Yi Chen! You dare offend the Young Master? Kneel and apologize to the Young Master right now!!"

’Kneel... and apologize?’

Yi Chen suddenly remembered what Cheng Yuan had said earlier. If his people came, he, Yi Chen, would have to kneel and apologize!

Just moments ago, Yi Chen had thought Cheng Yuan was just bluffing, a complete clown!

But now, Yi Chen felt like he was the real clown!

Even the Xuanyuan War God was kneeling before the man. Who the hell was Yi Chen in comparison?!

THUD!

Yi Chen fell to both knees and kowtowed three times to Cheng Yuan, his head hitting the ground hard!

Yi Chen used so much force that his forehead was bleeding, but even so, he was still worried, terrified that Cheng Yuan wouldn’t forgive him!

Yi Chen raised his head and looked at Cheng Yuan pitifully. "Young Master, I was blind and failed to recognize your greatness. I have offended you! I sincerely apologize! Please, can you forgive me this one time!"
