"Slap!"
Murong Shishi retaliated with a swift backhand, striking the young man.
Murong Shishi countered with a backhand slap to the young man's face, sending him flying through the air and crashing down in the square!
"Damn! You filthy woman, you dare to hit this young master!" The young man got up from the ground, his right cheek swollen like a pig's head.
He raised his head and roared, "Where are my people? I was bullied, where are you all?!"
As soon as his words were out, eight ninth-rank celestial gods descended from the sky, kneeling on one knee in front of the young man, saying, "We were negligent in our protection, please forgive us, young master!"
At this moment, the people around Tan Yun looked at the young man in the luxurious robe who had been struck by Murong Shishi, scurrying away like rats fleeing from a cat.
The tens of thousands of onlookers looked at Murong Shishi, their eyes filled with sympathy, whispering,
"That beauty is in for it this time!"
"Yeah! She just hit the Second Young Master of the Ma Residence, Ma Xiang!"
"The Ma Residence is a noble family; she's done for this time!"
"Exactly, not only is she done for, but the people around her will also suffer!"
Listening to the whispers, Tan Yun furrowed his brows.
Murong Shishi looked pale as she gazed at Tan Yun, her exquisite face filled with regret. Her delicate lips parted, revealing a nervous but melodious voice, "Tan Yun, I’m sorry for causing you trouble."
"No need to say sorry," Tan Yun smiled slightly, "You did well, but just hitting him is too lenient!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiang's chunky face twitched, his nose scrunched up in anger as he glared at Tan Yun, "What did you just say?!"
"I said, slapping you once is too lenient," Tan Yun's eyes narrowed, cold light flashing in them.
"Damn!" Ma Xiang cursed angrily, "This young master just arrived in this tiny Azure Sun Market and was already slapped by a filthy whore—it infuriates me!"
Hearing Ma Xiang insult their master as a filthy whore, Si Hong Shiyao and Gongsun Ruoxi glared at him in unison, "You fat pig, clean your mouth!"
"You fat pig? You two little bitches dare to call this young master a fat pig!" At this moment, Ma Xiang was so furious he looked like he might explode. He said sternly, "Let me tell you, those who called me a fat pig are all dead!"
Ma Xiang hated being called a fat pig more than anything. He never imagined he would be slapped and humiliated here!
With a twisted expression, Ma Xiang pointed at Murong Shishi and sneered, "It's an honor for you that this young master would touch you; you dare to hit me!"
Then he pointed at Gongsun Ruoxi and Si Hong Shiyao, leering, "You two little beauties, soon this young master will catch you, and tonight I'll have my fun with you!"
After saying this, Ma Xiang turned to the eight kneeling elders, commanding, "Get up!"
"Yes, young master!" The eight elders stood up.
Ma Xiang grinned maliciously, pointing at Tan Yun and his group, "Kill all the men, and capture all the women!"
"Yes, young master!" The eight elders responded and were about to take action when suddenly a cold shout rang out from the square, "Stop right there!"
In the next moment, a young man in a white robe flew down from above, landing in front of Tan Yun.
"Snow Fox Divine Race!" Tan Yun looked at the young man in the white robe, noticing the erect fox ears, and frowned upon realizing he was a fourth-class half-saint.
Immediately, a stir arose among the onlookers, as over a hundred celestial god warriors from the Snow Fox Divine Race, armed with divine spears, approached with imposing presence.
Facing the white-robed young man, the hundred warriors knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "We greet the Deputy General in charge of protecting the market!"
Indeed!
The white-robed young man was Li Yuan, the deputy general protecting the Azure Sun Market.
Li Yuan coldly scanned Tan Yun and Ma Xiang's group, fixing his gaze on Ma Xiang, "Second Young Master Ma, this is the territory of my Snow Fox Divine Race. Without my consent, you think you can cause trouble here?"
