"Such speed! Where did this expert come from?!"

"Where did this person come from? I couldn't find him anywhere from beginning to end!"

The sight of the tall, thin young man who suddenly appeared in front of Chen Yun caused a stir among the crowd.

"Father, who is this person?"

Cheng He turned to look at Cheng Junshan.

"It's Zhangtai Road."

Cheng Junshan's face was ashen.

“He is the twelfth generation successor of the orthodox Zhang family’s Shadowless Leg technique, a true master. Even if we want to protect Doctor Chen, the people we brought today are no match for him… Two years ago, I knew that Zhang Tailu had entered the mortal world to cultivate, and I even inquired about his whereabouts everywhere. I never expected that he would become Wang Hong’s subordinate. He has kept a deep eye on things all these years!”

Cheng He's expression was equally grim. "Father, our Cheng family's strength has grown considerably over the years, and we've already established a significant gap with other families in Jiangnan City. Wang Hong specifically brought Zhang Tailu here today; I'm afraid he never intended to resolve this peacefully with us from the start!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Junshan nodded heavily—how could he not know this principle?

Perhaps, from now on, the Cheng family and Wang Hong will no longer be allies...

"Tai Lu, that's enough. He's a distinguished guest of the Cheng family head, and we should still give him the respect he deserves."

Wang Hong spoke calmly, as if everything was already a done deal.

He was waiting to see if Chen Yun could still keep being stubborn after he was beaten to the ground!

"Yes!"

Zhang Tailu's reply was concise and to the point, and then it showed a tendency to launch an attack on Chen Yun.

"Are you sure you want to fight me?"

Chen Yun's eyes were calm, and his tone was completely even.

“I won’t cry until I see the coffin!”

Zhang Tailu let out a cold shout, his waist and abdomen suddenly contracted, and his right leg whipped like a whip, launching more than ten strikes in just a few seconds. His movements were as fast as a blur, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Bang bang bang!—"

A series of sounds, like firecrackers exploding, came from the dust, startling the crowd whose vision was obstructed.

Judging from the sound, Chen Yun would probably be crippled if not dead!

The next moment, the dust settled.

Zhang Tailu's body flew out like a cannonball, crashing hard into the wall of the top floor before falling to the ground, spitting out a large amount of blood.

"Sizzle!—"

Zhang Tailu was struck with tremendous force, and the short-sleeved shirt he was wearing tore apart as he fell to the ground.

Everyone stared in horror at Chen Yun slowly retracting his right hand, their minds seemingly torn to shreds, completely losing the ability to think.

The tense atmosphere on the top floor instantly turned into complete silence.

This simply dressed fellow, known as a miracle doctor, actually defeated Zhang Tailu, a martial arts master, with a single punch!

How can this be?

"Just one move."

Chen Yun suddenly sighed, looking at Zhang Tailu who had already fainted, his eyes full of helplessness.

Without saying anything more, Chen Yun walked straight towards the door on the top floor.

A muffled thud came from behind.

Wang Hong, the mayor of Jiangnan City, actually knelt down directly before Chen Yun!

"With a grandmaster before us, I, Wang Hong, am blind; I have eyes but cannot recognize Mount Tai."

"I beg you to save my daughter. I will accept any apology for my previous actions!"

"Ha, they say a great man can bend and stretch, but tonight I've truly seen your ability to become the mayor."

Chen Yun stopped and looked at Wang Hong kneeling behind him, his tone unusually approving.

The others present could hardly believe their eyes; the mayor of Jiangnan City had actually knelt down on the spot!

Cheng He's pupils dilated slightly, a flash of insight crossing his mind, as if he understood something at that moment.

Of all the people, Cheng Junshan was the most composed.

He was only surprised by the strength Chen Yun displayed. After all, who would have thought that a medical saint would also have such powerful martial arts?

However, Cheng Junshan was not too surprised by Wang Hong's reaction.

For others, being the mayor of Jiangnan City is the pinnacle of power, but people like Cheng Junshan, who also stand at a high position, are quite aware of this.

Society is all about treating people differently based on their status. When you're with someone weaker than you, you can act all high and mighty without any problem. But when you're with someone more powerful than you, you should completely let go of any pretense of dignity or the baggage of a past noble status.

Those who continue to dwell on this and fail to recognize reality are the real fools.

The situation has changed so suddenly, one turn of events after another.

From Hu Qingyang's appearance, Wang Hong's attack, to Cheng Junshan's efforts to protect Chen Yun, Wang Hong's promises, to Chen Yun's eventual refusal and his killing of Zhang Tailu with a single punch, everything was just too unbelievable.

As Hu Qingyang and Cheng Jianwen looked at the rising star Chen Yun, waves of fear and unease washed over them.

They were like clowns, performing in front of everyone time and time again, only to be repeatedly humiliated by Chen Yun, this unassuming young man!

It's over!

The same thought crossed both of their minds: Chen Yun was hiding his true intentions far too well; they had offended someone they dared not offend!

Not reconciled!

Hu Qingyang gritted his teeth and shouted at Wang Hong with a twisted face, "You are the mayor! How can you kneel down to a mere brat! He has no ability to cure your daughter's illness. Kneeling here is just humiliating yourself. From today onwards, everyone in Jiangnan City will know that you, the mayor, actually knelt down to someone in front of everyone!"

"Only I can treat your daughter! Wang Hong, you are incredibly foolish! You must immediately send someone to arrest Chen Yun on charges of intentional assault, otherwise, I will never treat your daughter again!"

At the same time, Cheng Jianwen also rushed out and shouted, "Mayor Wang, you absolutely cannot kneel down!!"

"You represent the face of Jiangnan City. So what if Chen Yun is a good fighter? Can he stand up against the state apparatus? Stand up and call the police station right now to have them arrest this arrogant idiot. Once you arrest him, what right does he have to refuse to save your daughter? Besides, there's Dr. Hu Qingyang here. Why entrust your daughter's illness to such a young upstart!"

"Noisy!"

Wang Hong and Cheng Junshan spoke at the same time, and the two strode forward, each slapping Hu Qingyang and Cheng Jianwen hard across the face.

The sudden attack caught them off guard, and they fell to the ground in an instant. One side of their face was swollen and red like a pig's head, and their teeth were mixed with blood. They looked extremely miserable!

After slapping Cheng Jianwen, Cheng Junshan just glared at him hatefully.

However, Mayor Wang Hong grabbed Hu Qingyang's head and slapped him repeatedly with both hands!
