Qiao Sheng, Chen Yanjuan, and the others were all stunned, unable to fathom how Chu Feng had such great influence to receive such protection from the Guard Captain of the Golden Talisman Sect Store.
It could even be said that it was an attempt to ingratiate themselves.
Apart from joy, Xie Bing’s beautiful face also wore an extreme shock.
She could never have imagined that the situation would take such a dramatic turn. Not only was Chu Feng unharmed, but those who had humiliated and bullied him had each met their retribution.
Zhao Gou’s expression was very ugly, with a hint of deep thought in his eyes.
Being very familiar with the Golden Talisman Sect Store’s way of doing things, he was clearly aware that unless Chu Feng had a very prestigious status or was of significant value to the store, it would be impossible for them to go to such lengths to please him.
They would not even hesitate to oppose the Royal Family to please Chu Feng.
"Ma Dazhuang, you must be insane! I’m going to report you to Manager Qiu! Not even Chief Steward Ma can save you now!" Manager Sun struggled to get up and headed upstairs.
Ma Dazhuang and Chief Steward Ma are uncle and nephew, and Manager Sun knew very well that complaining to Chief Steward Ma would be futile.
He had to complain to Manager Qiu instead.
"Ma Dazhuang, and that Chu named commoner, you’re both doomed! Just wait for Manager Qiu to deal with you!"
Manager Sun, under everyone’s gaze, was beaten, and Ma Dazhuang even let Chu Feng handle him as he pleased.
Undoubtedly, considering Chu Feng’s hatred for him and the bucket of manure outside prepared to be dumped on Chu Feng, Manager Sun’s fate was bound to be extremely miserable.
His only hope now was to run to Manager Qiu and complain about the wrongs done to him.
To have Manager Qiu uphold justice for him.
Manager Sun thought to himself that since he usually performed well in front of Manager Qiu, and this time it was only a trash Prince from Sword King Mansion that needed to be dealt with, Manager Qiu would definitely stand on his side.
Zhao Gou watched coldly, waiting for Manager Qiu to come down and handle the situation. He even thought about how he could pin framing charges on Chu Feng’s head.
Manager Sun only went upstairs for two or three minutes before he came tumbling down, holding his face.
His face was ashen, and his expression was gloomy.
His previous arrogance and domineering attitude had vanished without a trace, replaced by a mournful face, as if he had lost his parents.
Ma Dazhuang was not at all surprised by this outcome.
If it weren’t for Chu Feng deliberately concealing his skills and not wanting to reveal his identity as a Guest Alchemist, Manager Qiu would probably have personally come down to receive Chu Feng and deal with Manager Sun and the others.
Chu Feng’s face was equally indifferent.
"Heh heh, how about it? Weren’t you going to complain about us to Manager Qiu?"
"Got slapped twice, feeling sober now? Do you want me to give you a couple more kicks to clear your head even more?"
"Manager Qiu is wise and insightful, how could he possibly be deceived by a villain like you?"
Ma Dazhuang sneered, taking the opportunity to flatter Manager Qiu, demonstrating his loyalty.
Talking bad behind people’s backs attracts hatred. Showing loyalty to a master from behind, through the mouth of others, often has a far greater effect than flattering directly to their face.
Manager Sun did not dare to provoke Ma Dazhuang, but he glared at Chu Feng with venomous eyes, and said coldly, "Chu, this low-born, you got lucky this time! Mountains are unchanged, and waters flow constantly, we now have a feud!"
"One day, I will return it tenfold, a hundredfold!"
Having said that, Manager Sun attempted to leave.
How could Chu Feng so easily let him go?
"Whether the mountains change or not, I don’t know! But I have heard that a dog can’t change its habit of eating dirt!"
"Drink down that big bucket of dung water outside, and you can leave. Otherwise, it won’t just be as simple as drinking dung water!"
Chu Feng sneered coldly, blocking Manager Sun.
"You’re courting death!" Manager Sun was also quite competent, possessing the cultivation of an Eighth Rank Swordsman, a whole two ranks higher than Chu Feng.
It was estimated that being a manager at the Golden Talisman Sect Store came with very good salary and benefits.
That’s what enabled him to attain the high-level cultivation of an Eighth Rank Swordsman.
Manager Sun’s face twisted grimly, evil rising from his gall, and he suddenly made a move. Pulling a sharp dagger from his sleeve, he slashed fiercely at Chu Feng.
In the past few days, Chu Feng had comprehended the Glazed Sword Technique and made significant progress. Additionally, his own cultivation had also advanced to a Sixth Rank Swordsman, giving him the strength to fight Manager Sun.
His eyes slightly squinted, and he quickly devised several strategies and maneuvers to combat his enemy.
"Be careful!" Xie Bing and Ma Dazhuang both cried out in alarm.
Since the incident happened too abruptly, they couldn’t intervene in time to help.
Chu Feng’s expression unchanged, his body moved fluidly like swaying willows, surprisingly moving forward to meet Manager Sun’s dagger.
Something unexpected occurred to everyone. Like a bolt of lightning too fast to cover one’s ears, Chu Feng knocked the dagger out of Manager Sun’s hand and swiftly landed several punches on the key parts of Manager Sun’s body.
Especially that punch on the bridge of the nose, hit incredibly hard.
"Wah...ugh..." Manager Sun fell to the ground and let out a miserable scream, tears, nasal blood, and snot all gushing out together, looking extremely wretched.
Before Chu Feng could take further action, Ma Dazhuang had already lunged forward in a swift step and stepped on Manager Sun.
He had just been scared into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, Chu Feng was unharmed. Otherwise, if anything had happened to Chu Feng, he as the Guard Captain would probably have reached the end of his duty. With Manager Qiu watching, how could he allow someone to hurt the store’s guest alchemist and let Manager Qiu overlook this?
Ma Dazhuang kicked Manager Sun viciously twice, then ordered two guards to restrain Manager Sun from left and right.
Lifted him up, facing Chu Feng.
This left Manager Sun completely at Chu Feng’s disposal. Not only Manager Sun had a bad fall, but the two guards who had assisted Manager Sun in attacking Chu Feng last time were also held down by Ma Dazhuang’s command.
The two guards trembled like sieves, repeatedly begging both Ma Dazhuang and Chu Feng for mercy.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chu Feng walked up to Manager Sun unhurriedly, like a king looking down on a defeated chieftain.
"Sun, remember what I said when you humiliated me the other day?"
"Dare to touch me, and I told you to pack up and roll out of the Golden Talisman Sect Store! Do you remember?"
Many people had a deep memory of what Chu Feng said that day because the stubbornness and pride shown by that young man moved everyone. Almost everyone thought Chu Feng was a madman back then.
Spouting madness there, overestimating himself, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth.
Yet, just a day later, Chu Feng showed everyone that he was not only not a madman, but he also truly fulfilled his bold words.
Manager Sun fell! The Second Prince was beaten and was forever barred from entering the Golden Talisman Sect Store.
All those who insulted and bullied Chu Feng received the punishments they deserved.
"Weren’t you eager to splash dung on me? Today, I’ll let you drink it to your heart’s content!"
A ruthless expression not matching his age appeared on Chu Feng’s face.
