Martial Master

However, Ba Leng did not look at her, only glancing around and coldly stating, “Where is Yi Xin? Don't you dare hide?”

“Ba Leng Young Master, are you trying to cause trouble in my Taigu Residence? Yi Xin is a member of my Taigu Residence and should naturally follow our rules. How can you call her at will? I ask you, Ba Leng Young Master, to show some restraint.” The plump woman said angrily, her expression clearly showing her annoyance.

“Ba Leng Young Master, Yi Xin was taken away earlier by someone from the Xuanyuan Empire. She should be in that pavilion.”

At that moment, a voice spoke up; it was Shi Liang, pointing out the pavilion where Qin Chen was located.

“Over there?”

Without hesitation, Ba Leng launched his attack. With a loud boom, a terrifying strike landed on the formation outside the pavilion, instantly causing it to shake, revealing the scene inside.

In the pavilion, Yi Xin was sitting closely with a man. The man wore a cold smile, his expression showing no fear, while Yi Xin revealed a hint of worry.

“Ba Leng Young Master, you are being too presumptuous.” The plump woman coldly scolded, stepping in front of Ba Leng, her gaze icy, and an aura of coldness radiating from her.

The formation inside the pavilion was specifically designed to shield the surroundings, so its defensive power was not strong. That was why it was destroyed with Ba Leng’s single strike. If a conflict were to occur between Ba Leng and the guests inside the pavilion, the reputation of Taigu Residence would be completely ruined.

If it were an ordinary person, the plump woman would have long since subdued them, but Ba Leng came from the Law Enforcement Hall and his status was extraordinary. She did not dare to act recklessly and could only block him, preventing him from having a chance to act.

Yet Ba Leng did not look at her but turned to Yi Xin and said, “Yi Xin, come over and drink with me.”

Yi Xin seemed a bit at a loss. She glanced at Qin Chen beside her, but ultimately gritted her teeth and said, “Ba Leng Young Master, Yi Xin was taken by this young master. I am currently accompanying this young master, so I ask Ba Leng Young Master to show some restraint. If Ba Leng Young Master truly favors Yi Xin, we can meet next time, and I will personally apologize to you. But for now, I must listen to this young master’s wishes.”

She spoke softly.

Ba Leng’s gaze instantly landed on Qin Chen.

“You are the one who took Yi Xin? Let her go! Do you know whose woman she is? How dare you take her!” Ba Leng snorted coldly, exuding a domineering aura, completely disregarding Qin Chen and directly reprimanding him.

“Who I take does not require anyone's orders. This woman is beautiful, and I admire her, so I naturally took her. What does that have to do with you?” Qin Chen replied coldly, then reached out to hold Yi Xin’s jade-like hand, smiling slightly, “Don’t pay attention to such a fool. I certainly won’t let you go.”

“Hmm!” Yi Xin smiled gently.

Ba Leng’s expression darkened. He looked at Qin Chen, narrowing his eyes, and said coldly, “You are very presumptuous.”

“Who is being presumptuous?” Qin Chen stared at Ba Leng. He came here to snatch someone and was creating a scene, yet he called him presumptuous.

“Hmph!” Ba Leng let out a cold snort and then looked at Yi Xin, saying, “Yi Xin, every time I come to Taigu Residence, it is for you. And each time, I seek your company. I remember telling you that I hoped one day you would genuinely be moved by me, but now you are accompanying another man. Do you not take my words to heart?”

“Ba Leng Young Master, Yi Xin is a member of Taigu Residence and must naturally follow the arrangements of Taigu Residence,” Yi Xin said softly.

“Ba Leng Young Master, if you continue to make trouble and disrupt the order of my Taigu Residence, causing chaos here, don’t blame Taigu Residence for being ungracious. Although you are from the Law Enforcement Hall, you cannot break the law. If you truly create chaos here, my Taigu Residence is not a place to be trifled with.” The plump woman said coldly, her tone becoming increasingly severe.
