Chapter 158 The Wind Was Too Strong

Amidst the crowd, Su Wen looked at the guard and sneered. “How dare I? Today, I’ll show you what it means to be imposing! What it means to be full of strength!”

After saying that, Su Wen truly ignored the gazes of everyone present, pulling down his pants and jumped a few steps back. He aimed at Xu Longcheng’s head and urinated! Zhao Jin suddenly opened his eyes wide and said to Chu He, “You stay here with the young master! I’ll go tell the Prime Minister! Something big is going to happen!” With that, he slipped away in a flash! The suppressed guard said with a mournful expression, “Is your young master right in the mind? How will the Duke let this go?” Chu He punched him and rebuked angrily, “Are you in the position to interrupt?” The pee… was very hot… and a little yellow… and also a little too strong smelling for the nose… Xu Longcheng, who had already fainted, regained his senses when his face was filled with urine.

“What’s going on? Where am I? Why is someone pouring warm water on my face-” He unconsciously licked his lips. What in the world was this taste? Xu Longcheng suddenly opened his eyes. At this moment, both his left and right eyes were swollen from the beating. He could only see Su Wen taking aim from 30 feet away from him through a small gap. He was even shouting with a proud expression, “I’m asking all of you if this Young Master’s aim is accurate!” Xu Longcheng was overwhelmed with rage. He was about to stand up, but he suddenly realized that his injuries were too severe. His internal organs had been severely injured, and his bones had been shattered in many places. He couldn’t move at all. The moment he moved, he felt intense pain! In his anger, he fainted again. After Su Wen finished urinating, he pulled up his pants and laughed. “Awesome!”

Everyone on scene was dumbfounded.

No one expected Su Wen to really pee on Xu Longcheng’s head! And he actually did so on Xu Longcheng’s head in front of everyone. The owner of Immortals’ Abode Pavilion wanted to cry… Why did the restaurant collapse from the fight between these two young masters?

What should he do? Get compensation from the one who lost?

The one who lost was already lying on the ground with urine all over his face, unable to get up. Su Wen adjusted his pants and smiled at Chu He. “Let’s go!” After boarding the carriage, he asked, “Where’s Zhao Jin?” “I went to inform the Prime Minister,” Chu He said honestly. Su Wen touched his chin and said in satisfaction, “He is quite perceptive. He saved me the trouble of looking for the old man. Let’s go to the Secret Shadow Guard. Young Master is on night shift today.” At the Prime Minister’s residence, Su Changqing had just had dinner and was playing with Su Nuannuan in the courtyard. “Master! Zhao Jin is outside the residence seeking an audience. He says there’s something important!” Su Changqing was stunned. “Something big happened? Let him in!” When the two of them met, Zhao Jin knelt on one knee and said hurriedly, “Prime Minister, bad news. Young Master hit Xu Longcheng…” Su Changqing frowned slightly. He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. He could not help but ridicule in his heart: ‘I thought there was something important going on, you’re just making a fuss over nothing.’ He really did not think much of it. The Great Zhou revered martial arts, so it was quite common for the sons of influential officials to clash with each other. If they fought, so be it. To put it bluntly, whoever got beaten up would be the one who lost face!

‘Hehe, as expected of my son, he even won such a bigshot.’ Su Changqing was secretly pleased. “… And Young Master peed all over Xu Longcheng’s face in public!” “Pfft!”

Su Changqing spat out his tea. “Haha, whose guard are you? I only have two sons. Get lost!”

Su Changqing felt completely helpless at this point. This was truly vile. Su Wen peed on Xu Longcheng’s face. This was an insult!

Furthermore, Xu Longcheng was from a clan of incomparable honor as his ancestors were the founding fathers of the country. Even if he were to be beaten up, the loser would be the bandit. There was nothing to say about it. However, if he were to pee all over his face… At this moment, Xu Longcheng was carried back home. They met up with Xu Qiao! Xu Qiao was much taller than Xu Longcheng. He was 2.2 to 3 meters tall, possessing a majestic appearance and a full beard. Xu Qiao saw his son’s state and frowned. He immediately asked, “What happened?” The guard could only tell him the whole story in an aggrieved manner!

Pa!

Xu Qiao kicked out, sending the Earth Rank guard flying! He fell to the ground, vomiting blood as he convulsed continuously. His chest was completely caved in, and it was obvious that he could not live much longer.

Xu Qiao clenched his fists tightly and said in a deep voice, “Since the ancient times, if a Lord is humilitated, his subjects will commit suicide. That is part of the rules, and also of moral integrity! If you’re no match for the other party, it’s not as though there are no other responses to take. If you had fired off a distress flare, no one would have to suffer such humiliation!”

Actually, the guard felt wronged, but he was already dead and could not defend himself. Even though he was being beaten up at that time, Xu Longcheng still had the upper hand. Why would he choose to release the distress flare?

Most importantly, he was in the house at that time and was not given a chance to leave.

A pity, Xu Qiao did not even bother to listen to his explanation. The humiliation of his beloved son was no different from himself receiving the peeing! The furious Xu Qiao thus directly killed the guard. “Men! Prepare horses! I want to see what kind of person Su Wen is!” Xu Qiao gave the order and eight riders followed behind him. They exited from the Duke’s Residence and galloped towards Su Wen’s house. At this moment, at the entrance of Su Wen’s house, Zhao Jin was standing side by side with someone. Zhao Jin was somewhat hesitant. “Lord Luo, that Xu Qiao won’t forcefully charge into the residence, right?” Lord Luo, who Zhao Jin was speaking to, sported a magnificent three-foot-long beard. He said proudly, “Of course not. Besides, I’m here. Even if he wants to charge, he can’t!”

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard.

Xu Qiao took the lead, his warhorse bright red like blood, exceptionally tall. Xu Qiao rode on it, like a small mountain, exuding pressure. Seeing the person at the door, Xu Qiao’s aura rose.

The spear in his hand suddenly thrust out, and a violent spear energy rushed towards Zhao Jin and Lord Luo. Zhao Jin had seen Yao Gu’s spear technique before. At that time, he had felt that Yao Gu’s spear technique was incomparably violent and fierce!

But when Xu Qiao made his move, he realized he was just a frog in the well. In fact, Xu Qiao’s spear art had given him a feeling of invincibility. Compared to Yao Gu, his spear art was much stronger and more oppressive. But Lord Luo smiled, his long beard fluttering. His right hand slightly moved forward, brushing to the side. The spear force instantly seemed to have struck an invisible wall.

But it didn’t erupt, neither was there a collision. It simply faded away. Xu Qiao gritted his teeth and said, “Luo Ning! You want to stop me?”

Luo Ning smiled and said, “The Prime Minister has said that Duke Xu has a noble status and is an elder. If he were to attack a junior’s family, he would lose his status.” “Haha! Does Su Wen, that little bastard, care about my status as a Duke?” Xu Qiao scolded him harshly. Luo Ning smiled and said, “What are you saying? Didn’t Young Master Su not kill Xu Longcheng? If it weren’t for your status as a duke, I’m afraid Xu Longcheng would be a corpse by now!” “Haha, are you people from the Su family all so shameless? He injured my son and peed on my son’s head. Such actions, are you still giving me face?” Luo Ning bowed and said, “That depends on what you think, Duke Xu. Look on the bright side, everyone grew up playing with urine and mud, so there’s nothing special about it. Perhaps Young Master Longcheng even ate his own sh*t when he was young. Who can say for sure?

My family’s Young Master’s upbringing is very strict. He must have been unable to hold it in and accidentally splashed a little on Young Master Longcheng. It definitely wasn’t intentional. Duke, you’re an adult, you can’t be so petty!” Xu Qiao was furious. “Bullsh*t! Luo Ning, I advise you to get out of the way and let that little bastard come out. Otherwise, I’ll charge into the residence!” “Kill!” The eight riders behind Xu Longcheng shouted in unison.

Their battle cries shook the heavens and shot into the sky!

Even though there were only eight of them, they seemed to surpass an army of thousands. Luo Ning smiled and said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, Duke. My young master is on duty at the Secret Shadow Guard tonight. If you want to look for him, you’ll have to go to the Secret Shadow Guard. However, if you want to rush into the residence, that won’t do.” Xu Qiao narrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Ning. Then, he snorted and left! Next, Xu Qiao had arrived outside the Secret Shadow Guard! The door of the Secret Shadow Guard was tightly shut.

“Su Wen, get out here for this daddy!”

He roared.

No one responded.

He gritted his teeth, got off his horse and was about to push open the gates. Just as Xu Qiao’s palm touched the door of the Secret Shadow Guard, a huge force rebounded and Xu Qiao was sent flying.

His cultivation base of 9th Grade Earth Rank was completely useless. “Si Tu!” he spat through gritted teeth. At this moment, the door opened and Su Wen came out. He smiled and said, “Who are you? Why are you shouting? Do you believe that I will capture you and let you know how powerful I am?!” “Don’t be rude!” Si Tu instructed as he floated out.

He glanced at Xu Qiao and said, “Duke Xu, this Secret Shadow Guard is an important area in the Court. Other than criminals and members of the Secret Shadow Guard, no one else is allowed to enter. Please leave!”

Xu Qiao clenched his fists and looked up abruptly. “In that case, I would like to experience the strength of a Heaven Rank expert! I’ve never fought a Heaven Rank expert before.”

Si Tu remained indifferent as he replied, “If the Duke has the intention to die, you can naturally make a move.” Xu Qiao stared at Si Tu for a long while before finally releasing his fist. He looked at Su Wen and coldly said, “Brat, you insulted my son. This matter isn’t over. I don’t believe you can hide here forever.”

Su Wen made a funny face at him and said with a smile, “I can’t hide forever, but do you think you can always be on guard here?”. Xu Qiao ignored him and turned to leave!

After they left, Su Wen cupped his hands and smiled at Si Tu. “Thank you for protecting me, Uncle Si.”

Si Tu floated back into the courtyard as he sighed. “Take care of yourself. Xu Qiao is right. You can’t remain in the Secret Shadow Guard territory.”

Su Wen smiled as though he did not take it seriously.

Early in the morning, Wu Lie was eating non-stop in his residence.

He had already heard that Su Wen had given Xu Longcheng a total face slap. Wu Kunhu ate his breakfast expressionlessly while Wu Muyu was all smiles. “Father, have you heard? Something big happened in the city last night. Big Brother Su gave Xu Longcheng a beating. He even peed all over his face.”

Wu Kunhu’s hand paused for a moment before he replied coldly, “Yes.”

Wu Muyu sighed and said, “Sigh… This Xu Longcheng is too useless. Isn’t he the third son of the Jing Duke? The Duke’s family has contributed to the founding of the country, and they don’t lack Heaven Rank cultivation techniques. To think he was even beaten up by Brother Su, who is one grade lower. He’s really.. tsk tsk tsk.” Seeing that Wu Kunhu didn’t answer, Wu Muyu continued to push her luck, “Brother Su even peed on his head and face. Father, if I were marry such a useless person, how good-for-nothing be? Think about it. If your son-in-law was humiliated like this, wouldn’t it be a joke if word got out?” Wu Muyu dropped the bombshell, “In the future, when others see you, they will say, ‘Aiyo, isn’t this the father-in-law of the guy who was peed on the face…”

Pa!

Wu Kunhu slammed down his chopsticks and stood up. “I’m not eating any more! Heading off to the court assembly!

In the morning court assembly! It was the morning court assembly again. The Zhou Emperor took leisurely steps as he started his work for the day.

However, as soon as he sat down, he felt that something was wrong.

In the imperial court, everyone was extremely solemn today. It was clear that something major was about to happen!

“Report if there’s anything you need. If there’s nothing else, withdraw from the court!”

As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, Emperor Zhou could clearly see that everyone was looking at the Jing Duke, Xu Qiao. As for Xu Qiao, he glared fiercely at Su Changqing. Su Changqing smiled and even made a gesture for Xu Qiao to speak. Xu Qiao took a step forward and said to Emperor Zhou in a deep voice, “Your Majesty, you have to uphold justice for this subject. Last night, Su Wen, the son of Su Changqing, injured my son in the Immortals’ Abode Pavilion. Not only that, he even peed on my son’s head and face in public. He humiliated us founding fathers like this. Where does he put the face of the ancestors of the Great Zhou?! Your Majesty, please punish him!” Emperor Zhou sucked in a breath of cold air secretly. Good lord, this boy really knew how to go big.

He lightly fiddled his fingers as he started calculating Speaking of which, Xu Longcheng was one of the geniuses of Great Zhou as well. He was also one of the seedlings that could reach the Heaven Rank.

However, Xu Longcheng was already five or six years older than Su Wen.

To put it bluntly, would it be the same if one enrolled in Tsinghua University at 20 versus if one enrolled at the same University at 14? Especially now that the proverbial 20 year old was obviously surpassed by the 14 year old! Emperor Zhou subconsciously leaned towards favoring Su Wen. Besides, what was his relationship with Su Changqing? As for Xu Qiao… he had better stay away from him.

However, this Su Wen… was indeed a little presumptuous.

He looked at Su Changqing and asked, “Minister Su, what do you have to say?” Su Changqing cupped his hands and said with a smile, “Your Majesty, it’s common for young men to spar. Xu Longcheng was already defeated, and my son didn’t piss on him on purpose. It’s said that the two of them fought for more than two hours. After such a long time, my son definitely couldn’t hold it in any longer. Therefore, he released his bladder on the spot. According to witnesses, my son was at least 30 feet away from Xu Longcheng when he peed. It was just that the wind was too strong at that time, and this young man did not put enough strength into pissing, so it was blown away by the wind. It was purely an accident, and it wasn’t intentional humiliation!”

Xu Qiao was dumbfounded. He pointed at Su Changqing and said, “You… How can you be so shameless?”

Su Changqing rolled his eyes and said to Emperor Zhou, “Your Majesty, the Duke just scolded me in court, will you help me out?” Emperor Zhou frowned. “You are all colleagues, so watch your words. Minister Su is the head of all officials. How can you insult him?”

Xu Qiao felt wronged. What was this situation? Su Changqing smiled again. “The Patrol Office has also already brought the witness back to testify. I have all the witness statements here. Your Majesty, please take a look!” Last night, when Xu Qiao went around arresting Su Wen, Su Changqing had already sent people to do some PR. Now… even the owner of Immortals’ Abode Pavilion was laughing his way to the bank. As expected, the confessions were the same. There were dozens of confessions and they were all very clear. Su Wen peed very far away from Xu Qiao. As for whether or not he said anything, it was because the wind was too strong, so they couldn’t hear clearly. After reading the confession, Emperor Zhou said helplessly, “Official Xu, look, the witness statements are all here. It’s not what you said.” Su Changqing smiled and said, “I heard that the Xu Family’s guard Dai Yi is also present. Why don’t you ask the guard to testify? We can broadcast it to everyone in the court. If it’s true, I’ll kneel down and apologize to you! Moreover, I’ll personally kill my son. What do you think?” Xu Qiao was a military officer, so he had very little to do with court battles. Yesterday, he was so angered, how could he even think about getting any evidence. Now that he thought about it, wasn’t the guard he killed the only one who would tell the truth? He looked at the confident Su Changqing and could not voice his bitterness. Where was he going to find the person to confront him now? Was he going to drag the corpse in front of them? Xu Qiao was not a fool. When he saw Su Changqing’s confident look, he knew that Su Changqing was already aware of what had happened to the guard. He even used it as a method of counterattack!

Killing a guard was not a big deal. The problem was that it could not be brought up to the Royal Court!

He said in a deep voice, “That guard fought with Su Wen’s guard yesterday and his injuries were severe. He died shortly after he returned! He can’t be brought forth any more!” Su Changqing asked curiously, “That shouldn’t be the case. According to the testimony at the scene, that guard wasn’t seriously injured. He was the one who carried Xu Longcheng back.”

Xu Qiao gritted his teeth and said, “His internal injuries acted up!” “That’s true. He was kicked by a 9th Grade Earth Rank, and his sternum collapsed. His heart was shattered, but he was still able to carry his young master back. What a loyal and brave man!” Xu Qiao’s hands and feet were ice-cold as he looked at Su Changqing. The other party even knew how the guard died from his injuries? Emperor Zhou could tell that Xu Qiao was cornered.

If Su Changqing suggested an autopsy to investigate the cause of death, Xu Qiao would be in deep trouble.

The problem was… the Zhou Emperor did not want to punish Xu Qiao for this! Although he did not want to punish Su Wen, he could not touch Xu Qiao either. They had countless merits for the founding of the country! If they were to be punished because of a single guard, it would be a huge blow to the entire circle of influential officials of Great Zhou. How should he resolve it?

At this moment, Su Changqing said, “Since Dai Yi is dead, there’s no need to ask. Do you have any other witnesses?”

Su Changqing looked at Xu Qiao with a face full of smiles. He chose to ignore the guard’s death.

“No…”

Xu Qiao realized that despite all his strength, he was useless in front of Su Changqing. “Your Majesty, it seems like it’s just a misunderstanding between children. Right, Jing Duke?”

“Yes…”

Xu Qiao clenched his fists tightly.

The morning court assembly dispersed. What everyone thought was a meteor crashing into Earth turned into a one sided destruction from the meteor before it could even reach the Earth. In the royal garden, Emperor Zhou and Su Changqing strolled together. Emperor Zhou walked in front and sneered, “Great, you really gave birth to a good son! Tell me, is there anything that he doesn’t dare to do? Pee on that Xu Longcheng’s face, what was he even thinking?”

Su Changqing said helplessly, “That kid is showing off!” “Show off? What is he trying to demonstrate? Even if he and Xu Longcheng have a grudge, is a beating not enough? Is there a need for this?” Emperor Zhou was puzzled.

Su Changqing sighed and said, “Two days ago, Wu Kunhu went to Xu Qiao and wanted to marry Wu Muyu to Xu Longcheng.” Emperor Zhou frowned. “And then? What does this have to do with Su Wen?”

Su Changqing said somewhat embarrassedly, “My family’s boy has taken a liking to Wu Kunhu’s daughter…”

Emperor Zhou was enlightened. “So he wants to tell everyone that whoever dares to touch Wu Muyu will be dealt with by him?” After thinking this through, Emperor Zhou sneered and said, “Look at your son! I don’t even want to talk about you. You’re insatiable and greedy. You want to have your cake and eat it too. And even my daughter… Forget it, I won’t talk about it. The more I talk about it, the angrier I get. Can’t you beat him up a few times?”

Emperor Zhou frowned. “What are you going to do about Xu Qiao as well? He won’t let this go.”
