I have a martial arts panel.

Pan Du fainted.

Xu Ning still went a bit too far.

Pan Du was merely a martial artist at the Bone and Tendon Realm, while Xu Ning had already advanced to the Inner Abundance Realm and had even perfected the Origin Breath Body Forging Technique.

This process consumed 9 units of energy for Xu Ning, leaving him with 3 units of energy remaining.

After mastering the Source Breath Body Tempering Technique, Xu Ning's physical strength doubled.

Therefore, the attack on Pan Du just now actually exceeded his tolerance level.

Seeing that Pan Du had fainted, Xu Ning casually threw him on the ground.

Pan Du's injuries are serious, but they are not life-threatening.

Xu Ning was quite sensible about this.

"Old Feng."

Xu Ning ignored Pan Du and went to Feng Sigua's side, helping him up with difficulty.

"grown ups……"

After a short period of adaptation and adjustment, Feng Sigua was able to speak.

However, his face remained pale, and he looked very weak.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xu Ning helped Feng Sigua out of the small courtyard in front of the study.

Soon, Xu Ning saw a city guard on duty.

Xu Ning beckoned him over.

"Have two people carry Feng Sigua to the clinic on a stretcher for treatment," Xu Ning ordered. "Be careful on the way, don't hurt him. When the doctor prescribes medicine, use all the best medicine, don't worry about the cost."

"By the way, the treatment fee is still outstanding. Have the clinic issue a receipt, then give it to me, and I'll go find Wei Yi to resolve it."

Feng Sigua wanted to say something after hearing this, but Xu Ning stopped him.

Xu Ning said, "Don't worry, I'll handle it."

Feng Sigua was carried away.

Xu Ning stood in the courtyard of Wei Yi, looking at Chen Ren's flowers and plants.

Xu Ning's eyes were calm, but there was a hint of indifference in them.

This is the first time since I came into this world that someone has been hurt because of me.

Xu Ning felt somewhat guilty, but mostly angry; however, she didn't express it outwardly.

"Commander Qu said I was a nail..."

Xu Ning thought to himself, "Then I'll just do what Nail is supposed to do..."

Then, Xu Ning strode towards Chen Ren's study.

……

Inside Chen Ren's study, five people were waiting.

"Why hasn't Pan Du arrived yet?"

A bald, burly guard in black armor rubbed his head, his expression fierce.

Chen Ren also frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with Pan Du's efficiency.

Chen Ren convened this meeting today to give Xu Ning a wake-up call and make this newcomer more aware of his situation.

But now, after waiting for a long time, the main character still hadn't arrived, and Chen Ren was feeling a little embarrassed.

Just as I was thinking, suddenly, with a bang, the door was pushed open.

Xu Ning strode in.

"Greetings, Lord Chen."

Xu Ning clasped his hands in greeting.

However, there was not a trace of humility in his tone, and throughout the entire process, Xu Ning kept his back straight.

Chen Ren's eyes trembled slightly, as if he was suppressing his emotions.

"Young man, a newcomer with such poor manners, do I really need to teach you how to bow to your superior?"

The bald, burly, and fierce-looking man stepped forward, his tone threatening.

His name was Zhuang Dingshi, and he was also Chen Ren's confidant. Through Chen Ren, he had also received many benefits from Dayuan Trading Company.

Xu Ning turned to look at him and sized him up.

Then, Xu Ning smiled faintly, took half a step back, and said nothing, but his right hand was already gripping the short knife behind him.

Zhuang Dingshi's heart skipped a beat, followed by a surge of anger.

Xu Ning is provoking us.

Just as he was about to lose control of his anger, Chen Ren spoke up.

"Xu Ning, this is, after all, the post station, the base of our Black Armor Guard in Fengliu Lane."

Chen Ren stared at Xu Ning: "Here, you have to follow the rules."

"Yes, sir."

Xu Ning didn't refute, but simply agreed.

But he remained silent afterward.

Chen Ren took a deep breath, about to reprimand again, when he suddenly realized that Pan Du, who had gone to call Xu Ning earlier, had not returned with him.

"Where is Pan Du?"

Chen Ren asked Xu Ning.

Xu Ning feigned realization and explained calmly, "Pan Du assaulted a fellow city guard without cause, and I have already disciplined him. He's probably still lying in the courtyard of my study."

"You bastard!"

Finally, Chen Ren could no longer hold back. He stood up and slapped the desk.

Chen Ren's face turned ashen.

Xu Ning actually attacked his own people.

Although he had been working at the Fengliu Lane post station for a long time, Chen Ren still felt like his tail had been stepped on when his authority was challenged.

"Zhuang Dingshi, seize Xu Ning and lock him in solitary confinement!"

At this moment, Chen Ren decided to take action against Xu Ning.

Xu Ning's past actions and present actions have both exceeded Chen Ren's tolerance.

"yes!"

Zhuang Dingshi received the order and did not hesitate.

He stepped forward and immediately began to use a grappling technique.

The others stood to the side, all with expressions of watching the show.

pat.

Xu Ning swung his arm and flung Zhuang Dingshi's arm away.

"You dare disobey orders?"

Zhuang Dingshi shouted angrily.

Then, Zhuang Dingshi swung his thick arm and punched Xu Ning.

Xu Ning was not afraid at all, and he also threw a punch with one hand to meet the attack.

The sound of fists colliding.

With a cracking sound of bones breaking, Zhuang Dingshi groaned, and beads of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

His forearm was fractured during his previous exchange with Xu Ning.

"What?!"

Chen Ren's pupils contracted.

He looked at Xu Ning with an incredulous expression.

Zhuang Dingshi is an Inner Fullness Realm martial artist, and he has also mastered the Origin Breath Body Forging Technique to a minor degree. He is one of the few subordinates in the entire Fengliu Lane Guard Station who can be used by Chen Ren.

At that moment, he was punched by Xu Ning, fracturing his forearm.

I had seen Xu Ning's information before; he was only at the Bone and Tendon Realm.

"Even if he had broken through during this period, he shouldn't have been able to beat Zhuang Dingshi like this!"

Chen Ren's mind raced: "To improve one's strength to this level in such a short time, one would have to have taken highly effective pills and received guidance from a master..."

Considering the increasingly sharp struggle between Cai Qinghan and Qu Dayou, and the fact that Xu Ning has changed from being outwardly compliant to being arrogant and domineering since being assigned from the Third Camp, Chen Ren finally realized that a thorn had been driven into his Fengliu Lane Guard Station!

"Xu Ning was deliberately arranged by Qu Dayou!" Chen Ren automatically filled in the details behind it. "Qu Dayou may have modified Xu Ning's information beforehand to lull me into a false sense of security and make me underestimate him."

"I used to think that Yu Xinghe was making a mountain out of a molehill by trying to win over Xu Ning, but now it seems that I was too naive."

Chen Ren sensed a tremendous threat.

He was, after all, just a captain, and was also controlled by the Da Yuan Trading Company.

Behind Xu Ning was Qu Dayou.

Although he was in Cai Qinghan's camp, if Qu Dayou wanted to deal with him, it would still be easy.

"My lord."

Xu Ning's expression remained unchanged.

In fact, Xu Ning's forearm was also a little sore, but there was no real injury.

"It was not that I disobeyed the order."

Xu Ning said, "I taught Pan Du a lesson because he broke the rules first. Your attempt to confine me is against procedure."

"Furthermore, during my initial period as a new recruit, I will first be under the jurisdiction of the Third Camp, and then subject to the responsibilities of the Fengliu Lane Garrison. If you wish to impose any restrictions on my personal freedom, please consult Commander Qu first."

After saying that, Xu Ning clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Lord Qu has other matters for me to attend to, Captain, I shall take my leave now."

Xu Ning glanced at the group of people.

When their eyes met, there was deep hostility between them.

But then Xu Ning turned and left, and no one made a move.

At this point, Xu Ning's identity had become quite complicated. With Qu Dayou standing behind him, Chen Ren was clearly becoming wary. As for the black-armored guards under his command, who had been continuously fed by Dayuan Trading Company until they lost their fighting spirit, they were even less willing to have any dealings with Xu Ning.

Xu Ning left, and the study fell silent.

"Let's all go."

After a long silence, Chen Ren waved his hand.

At this moment, Chen Ren had lost his previous composure.

The remaining black-armored guards inside exchanged glances and then hurriedly took their leave.

Only Chen Ren remained, standing alone by the window, his gaze deep in thought.

Chirp chirp chirp.

The bird that Chen Ren keeps is chirping.

In the past, Chen Ren would have felt very comfortable, but now, he only felt annoyed.

"No, I have to go find Steward Duan!"

Chen Ren pondered for a moment and then made a decision.

He absolutely could not allow Fengliu Lane Post Station to become the first battlefield for the war between Cai Qinghan's camp and Qu Dayou's camp.

Then, Chen Ren put on his overcoat and fur hat, walked straight out of the room, and headed towards Dayuan Trading Company.
