630: Chapter 616: Xuanwu Takes Action 630: Chapter 616: Xuanwu Takes Action “Good guy, tonight you really made a splash, haha, it was so cool how you made Liu Dingyang piss himself in fear.
And good guy, you somehow incredibly managed to gain two favors, making a killing.” After the Dragon-Phoenix Banquet had ended and it was past midnight, the group rushed back home.
Zhao Yaya was still overwhelmingly excited, chattering nonstop all the way.
Guo Momo and Lin Feifei, on the other hand, were somewhat tired and both felt a bit sleepy.
The Dragon-Phoenix Banquet tonight wasn’t particularly novel in its proceedings, not much different from other banquets, only much grander in scale and significance.
But tonight, Tangyu was clearly the biggest winner.
As the protagonist, he was truly deserving of the title.
During the banquet, he had utterly stolen the show.
Not only did the Five Young Masters of Donglin unanimously vouch for him, but he also made a fool of Liu Dingyang, and the effect of his intimidating display was excellent.
Everyone sharply recognized Tangyu, who, despite his gentle demeanor, was anything but a weak scholar.
If he really got tough, he was more terrifying than a fierce tiger.
Anyone who considered provoking him would now think twice.
Although Tangyu had not been ranked among the Five Young Masters of Donglin, his prestige was hardly less than theirs.
The battle tonight was his claim to fame, making a name for himself throughout Donglin.
From now on, in the upper echelons of Donglin City, there would be one more prominent young master, and that was Divine Doctor Tang.
His status exceeded that of other infamous young masters, and if not for a slight gap in background, he would have been on par with the Five Young Masters of Donglin.
Tangyu’s position was now truly recognized by the high society.
In fact, being famous does not guarantee entry into high society.
The real high society requires status, influence, and your own capabilities, and of course, the most important is background.
Even first-class celebrities may not be able to join the upper class.
Although Tangyu only fought once on the challenge stage, his gain was the biggest of all, drawing a favor from the Five Young Masters of Donglin as his prize, and receiving an additional one, totaling two favors from the Five Young Masters, which made many people green with envy.
The favors from Zhao Wangxu and Jiang Zhentian made Tangyu smirk; they were indeed priceless treasures.
At a critical moment, they could definitely become a significant trump card.
Naturally, Tangyu was very pleased with these two favors.
The five favors from the Five Young Masters of Donglin, which everybody coveted, ended up with Tangyu possessing two, provoking both envy and jealousy.
All in all, the Dragon-Phoenix Banquet left a fairly good impression on Tangyu, at least it was not a wasted trip.
An occasional show of swagger, even if it was just for show, actually felt quite nice.
Tangyu couldn’t help but think, maybe it was time to show off every now and then in the future.
Being too low-profile could make others think you are easy to bully.
A bit of occasional ostentation would make others fear you, respect you.
Unfortunately, reality is such, and Tangyu couldn’t help but fall into the same pattern.
Back at the Princess Apartments, as soon as he reached the entrance, Tangyu frowned, sensing something was wrong—a very dense killing intent.
“Don’t get out of the car.” Tangyu barked, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
Seeing his serious expression, Lin Feifei and the others immediately tensed up.
A large group of soldiers in camouflage uniforms with guns suddenly appeared from all directions, swarming around and tightly surrounding the car, the muzzles of their guns aimed inside.
With the number of soldiers amounting to a platoon, the scene was quite intimidating.
Seeing these soldiers, Tangyu was stunned.
When had he offended the military?
Lin Feifei and the others were also shocked.
Why were there so many soldiers pointing guns at them?
“Get out of the car,” Tangyu said.
The four of them opened the car doors and got out.
The soldiers, with stern faces, still kept their guns aimed at them, ready to shoot without hesitation at any command.
Such a situation even scared Zhao Yaya, the usually bold one.
“What do you want?” Tangyu demanded.
The crowd parted, and two stern men in suits with rigid collars came forward, their gazes as sharp as knives, exuding an extraordinary aura and steady steps, indicating they were skilled fighters.
From these two men, Tangyu sensed several familiar vibes.
One of the men glared at Tangyu: “You are Tangyu?”
“That’s right, I am,” Tangyu replied.
“Then it’s you, take him away,” the man ordered coldly, and soldiers immediately moved to apprehend Tangyu.
Lin Feifei and Guo Momo immediately stepped in front of Tangyu, and Zhao Yaya, a beat slower, also quickly positioned herself in front of him, ready to protect him with her body.
On what grounds do you arrest someone without a word?
Since you know he’s Tangyu, then you should also know who he is.
He is the savior of traditional medicine.
What is the meaning of this?” Guo Momo shouted angrily.
These people were really strange, trying to arrest someone without any explanation.
“Just like dazed fools, what gives you the right to arrest someone?
Have you not opened your eyes wide enough to see who this is?
Our good guy brother is not someone you can simply capture.
Believe it or not, I’ll call my brother right now to come and beat you up,” Zhao Yaya also said.
