Outside the Zheng Family courtyard.

"You... why didn't you tell me you were serving a summons..."

Su Qing regretted it so much, her intestines had turned green.

First, they wiped out the Chimen Society, and now they were here to deliver a summons to Zheng Dongming. Wasn't this pure provocation to the Zheng Family?

"You didn't ask, and what else could I give them? Should I send them a coffin?"

As he spoke, Chu Sheng glanced at the time.

"It's almost five minutes. If no one comes out soon, I'll have to go in and find them."

This was a requirement of the enforcement regulations.

Upon hearing this, the two guards at the Zheng Family thought they had misheard.

Then, they moved aside, wearing mocking smiles.

"If you're not afraid of death, try going in!"

Where was this place?

It was the Zheng Family, guarded by two True Essence Realm powerhouses!

How dare a mere Bronze Patrol come here to cause trouble?

Unexpectedly, as soon as the guards finished speaking, Chu Sheng strode inside.

The two guards instantly felt like they were facing a great enemy and drew the sabers at their waists.

It was at this moment.

Chu Sheng suddenly stopped, and the two thought he was scared.

Turning their heads, they saw someone walking out from the courtyard.

Not only Chu Sheng but also Li Bin, who had come out of the Zheng Family, was stunned.

The one delivering the summons was Chu Sheng!?

This... this wouldn't be easy to fool...

However, he quickly realized that fooling was secondary; this was a great opportunity for revenge!

If he could force Chu Sheng to make a move here!

Then he would be in big trouble!!

As soon as he thought of this, he slightly curled his lips, and a hint of smugness appeared between his eyebrows.

You might have a good background, but I have a background now too.

Walking up to Chu Sheng, Li Bin slightly raised his chin.

In just these few short seconds, A complete plan to force Chu Sheng to make a move had already been sketched out in his mind!

However, before he could even speak, Chu Sheng suddenly threw a punch.

Zero-frame startup, and extremely fast, Li Bin couldn't react at all.

Until this punch sent him crashing to the ground.

Li Bin's mind was still in a daze.

This punch also scared the two guards and Su Qing behind them.

No one expected him to knock the man to the ground without even giving him a chance to speak.

Chu Sheng looked down at Li Bin on the ground, his voice cold.

"This is the third time."

"I think you son of a bitch really wants to die!"

The reason he appeared here didn't need to be thought about; he must have defected to the Zheng Family.

In Chu Sheng's eyes, this was more than just being a scumbag.

Li Bin angrily got up, "Chu Sheng, how dare you hit me!? I'm working for the Zheng Family now!"

"So what?"

"You're still from the Jingwu Bureau, and you hit someone in public. Do you think you'll be fine? I'll skin you alive!"

Chu Sheng chuckled, "Idiot, aren't you from the Jingwu Bureau too? This is at most an internal dispute, a matter for a self-criticism."

"I've already resigned!!"

"You can resign from the Jingwu Bureau just like that? Did you submit the application? Did the Director approve it?"

After a moment, Chu Sheng glanced at his watch, realizing the five-minute waiting period had long passed.

He could go in and find the person directly!

Pushing aside Li Bin, who was still stunned, Chu Sheng strode inside.

"What do you think you're doing!?"

The two guards snapped back to attention and quickly drew their blades, blocking Chu Sheng.

"Do you know what that action is called?"

"Obstructing official duty!"

"I'm giving you a warning now. The second time, I'll take action directly..."

The two guards smirked. They had guarded the Zheng Family for many years, and this was the first time they'd ever seen someone so audacious.

"If you dare to make a move here, I'll take your surname if you can leave alive!"

As soon as the guard finished speaking, a flash of lightning appeared.

Then, terrifying lightning descended.

Boom—

The loud sound startled everyone in the Zheng Family, and even the nearby households were drawn by the noise.

The Zheng Family members rushed out of their homes, and upon seeing the rampaging lightning towards the courtyard gate, they were all dumbfounded.

Even those who knew someone was coming to deliver a summons were too shocked to speak.

"Did... did they start fighting!?"

"What kind of martial skill is this? How can it be so terrifying..."

"Could it be a True Essence Realm expert causing trouble?"

Everyone hurried to the courtyard entrance.

But they were stunned to see that their Zheng Family's main gate, along with the adjacent courtyard wall, had been completely blasted away!!

The three people on the ground were also barely clinging to life.

Only a black-haired young man stood proudly, with sparks of lightning surging around him.

The young man turned to face the crowd, his gaze calm.

"Who is Zheng Dongming? You have a summons here. Report to the Jingwu Bureau tomorrow morning at eight to accept interrogation!"

Zheng Dongming said with a gloomy expression.

"Who are you!? How dare you cause trouble at my Zheng Family!?"

"Chu Sheng, regarding your accusation of causing trouble, I think you might be mistaken. They obstructed official duties, so I could only administer a minor punishment. Everything was in accordance with the law."

Upon hearing this, all the Zheng Family members' eyes widened.

This young man was Chu Sheng! He dared to come to the Zheng Family again!?

"You beast! How dare you come to my Zheng Family to cause trouble, take this!"

A young-looking girl rushed out from the crowd, sword in hand, and lunged at Chu Sheng.

"Don't!!!"

Zheng Dongming hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, but it was too late.

Chu Sheng casually slapped the girl, sending her spitting blood as she flew backward.

Seeing how young she was, Chu Sheng had thought she was some kind of genius.

But it turned out she was at the Opening Meridian Double Layer, a whole major realm below him.

Chu Sheng dusted himself off. "Is she always this brave?"

"Presumptuous!" Zheng Dongming roared. "First, you injured my guards, and now you've injured a junior of my Zheng Family. Do you really think I won't kill you!?"

Chu Sheng grinned. It was time for his favorite segment: legal education.

"Ignoramus!"

"See this uniform I'm wearing? She just attempted to assassinate a Jingwu Bureau law enforcer. Don't think this slap is the end of it; I'm taking her back to the Jingwu Bureau later."

"Preliminary estimate: three years in prison."

"Oh, and you. What you just said about threatening and intimidating a law enforcer, luckily the circumstances weren't too serious. And because I'm kind-hearted, I won't pursue it with you."

[Punished a villain who attempted to assassinate a law enforcer]

[Justice Points +1000]

"Shut up!!"

Zheng Dongming's body erupted with surging energy, the terrifying pressure of the True Essence Realm Double Layer descending instantly.

Chu Sheng grinned, a smile of excitement spreading across his face.

A True Essence Realm expert, and a wicked one at that. This might actually be a little exciting.

However, just then, a stern voice boomed, "Stop!"

Zheng Dongming froze on the spot.

"Father."

Zheng Jun slowly walked closer.

"Take this summons, and let him take Xiaoyu. Don't give outsiders a reason to mock us."

Hearing this, Zheng Dongming finally came to his senses. Killing Chu Sheng would be easy, but the repercussions would be immense. The commotion just now had undoubtedly attracted many people's attention. He didn't know how many pairs of eyes were already watching their Zheng Family from outside.

Seeing the anger on Zheng Dongming's face vanish instantly, Chu Sheng inwardly cursed his bad luck. That old man is indeed difficult to deal with. It's impossible to drag the Zheng Family down so easily.

Picking up Zheng Xiaoyu, Chu Sheng strode away amidst the furious glares of the Zheng Family members. As he did, he couldn't resist reminding them, "Don't forget to be at the Jingwu Bureau on time tomorrow morning, otherwise, I'll have to issue a compulsory summons according to the law."

Passing by two guards, Chu Sheng grinned and said, "Sir, my surname is Chu. Don't forget..."
