Chapter 266: Threat

"You…" Zhang Jiran jumped up like a rabbit whose tail had been stepped on and shouted loudly, "How dare you show such disrespect to our Zhang Family?

Don't think that just because your Qin Family has occupied Liu City, you're something special.

We just didn't look down on Liu City; if our Zhang Family wanted it, we could easily kick your Qin Family out."

"Then let's wait and see!" Qin Ming said with a cold snort.

In any case, Qin Ming's goal was the entire Chenyang City; he just needed to find an opportunity to wipe out the Zhang Family.

Last time at the Ziyun Auction House, it was also these people from the Zhang Family who wanted to snatch the spirit plant. This Zhang Family was truly overbearing.

"Wait and see?" Zhang Jiran laughed loudly. "Do you still think you can leave now?"

"What? Do you want to keep me here?" Qin Ming's expression was cold.

"Help! Someone is robbing me!" Zhang Jiran shouted loudly.

Chenyang City was full of City Guards who heard the shout.

Soon, a squad of City Guards rushed over. The leader was a man with a scarred face. When the scarred man saw Zhang Jiran, he hurriedly walked over and bowed, saying:

"Young Master Zhang, why are you here? What happened here?"

"Look!" Zhang Jiran pointed at Qin Ming and said, "This person robbed me of five High-Grade Spirit Stones. Please arrest them according to the law!"

"How can you be like this!" Qin Qing shouted. "It was clearly him who wanted to snatch our fox, and brother just took his Spirit Stones temporarily. We weren't going to keep them, so we didn't rob him!"

"Take them down! Lock them in the dungeon. Once the truth of the matter is investigated, we will naturally clear your names." The scarred man waved his hand and ordered.

Two City Guards immediately walked towards Qin Ming, wanting to seize him.

"Are you really going to interfere in the affairs between the Qin Family and the Zhang Family? Choosing the wrong side can cost you your life!" Qin Ming stared at the scarred man and said in a deep voice.

The scarred man's face stiffened. He hadn't expected that the youth in front of him also belonged to a Family, and judging by his calm demeanor, this Family was not small.

What should he do now?

"The Qin Family is just a Family from Liu City. No matter how impressive they are, they can't compare to our Zhang Family!" Zhang Jiran patted the scarred man on the shoulder and said.

The scarred man wiped the sweat from his face and ordered, "Take him down!"

The two City Guards continued walking towards Qin Ming.

"It seems you are looking for death!" Qin Ming sneered, his body surging with Spiritual Qi. He slapped one of the approaching City Guards, sending him flying instantly, and then reached out to grab the standing Zhang Jiran.

"You… what do you want to do? You are resisting the City Guards; the City Lord will not let you off!" Zhang Jiran said nervously.

"The City Lord?" Qin Ming sneered. "Does the City Lord even have any authority?"

The strength of Chenyang City's City Lord was only at the Grand Martial Master Realm, and he was completely no match for the Zhang Family and the Qu Family. Therefore, the City Lord of Chenyang City was just a figurehead.

When the City Lord was needed, he would be dragged out to be used; when he wasn't needed, no one paid him any mind.

"I am a member of the Zhang Family. If you dare to touch me, the Zhang Family will not let this go.

Even if you aren't afraid of death, think about your sister, think about your Qin Family. If you dare to touch me, the Zhang Family will definitely wipe out your Qin Family!" Zhang Jiran realized that Qin Ming didn't care about the City Lord at all, so he hurriedly brought up the Zhang Family.

"You dare to threaten me? You dare to target my Family!" Qin Ming's eyes grew colder, and he punched Zhang Jiran in the face.

"Bang!" Zhang Jiran, who had been yapping away, took the punch and immediately collapsed to the ground, motionless.
