Dragon Card.

In ancient times, this was equivalent to a Yellow Robe!

Only those who have made great contributions to Hua Country possess the Dragon Card.

Once something happens to such people,

A nationwide manhunt is bound to ensue!!

Sure enough.

In less than three minutes,

They could hear the sound of police sirens outside, a dense clatter of them.

Not just here.

Throughout the large streets and small alleys of East Sea City, everywhere there were the sounds of sirens, law enforcement officers searching for something everywhere.

Each intersection was blocked with barriers, inspecting every vehicle.

Bus stations, train stations, airports, highway junctions, city exits, and so on, all had personnel arranged.

Hotels, bustling city centers, suburban abandoned factories, and so on, also had people searching.

The people in the streets were also all shocked, wondering what in the world could have happened, as if it were the end of the earth...

At this moment.

Bright Pearl Imperial Palace Hotel, the banquet hall.

People were already immersed in shock, nobody daring to speak carelessly.

One of them quietly asked the person at the same table, "What's the background of this woman? Why does she seem so ruthless? Even the Ao Huang Three Families seem not to fear her."

"You don't know, do you?" someone quietly replied, "She used to have an older brother, a tiger general in the Northern Border Army. During the King Sealing in the Northern Border, the title of 'Unrivaled War God' should have gone to her brother, but alas, he died in battle three days before the King Sealing."

"Really? That's so impressive! Why haven't I heard of this before?"

"That's because her brother died in battle," the person said with regret. "It's a pity! If her brother had survived and earned the title of War God, East Sea City would have gained another noteworthy individual. Even so, because of her brother, no one dares to bully her."

"Indeed, after all, she's a hero's relative."

"Not only that, but I've also heard that the person who replaced her brother and was sealed as the 'Unrivaled War God', recognized her as his little sister. It's just too bad she has always ignored the 'Unrivaled War God'; otherwise, her standing in East Sea City wouldn't just be this."

"Forget the Ao Huang Three Families, even Mr. Nangong wouldn't dare to mess with her for real."

"..."

People were discussing amongst themselves.

Those who did not understand her background were utterly astonished at this moment.

They hadn't expected her to have this layer of identity.

It was truly unexpected.

At the same time,

Everyone was also extremely envious of Qin Feng.

Qin Feng, a married man, managed to gain the concern of such a woman with a background, which was really enviable.

On the other hand,

Bai was looking at Jiang Lanting, who was so concerned about Qin Feng, and he felt secretly displeased, thinking, "Where did that guy get his charm from? He had Li Qianqian in the past, and now Jiang Lanting. It's really annoying! But that's all it can be, with Huang Dao taking action, he has no escape..."

At this moment.

Listening to the ongoing police sirens outside, the Ao Huang Three Families were feeling extremely anxious.

The situation had developed to this point.

Now all they could hope for was that Huang Dao could quickly deal with Qin Feng and then leave as soon as possible, not to get caught.

If Huang Dao got caught and ratted them out, the situation would be dire.

Thankfully, they were very confident in Huang Dao's abilities.

Had they not been.

They would not have dared to refute Mr. Nangong's words earlier and insist on targeting Qin Feng.

This gave them some peace of mind.

"Serve the dishes!"

Master Lu took the lead in breaking the silence here, trying his best to relax, saying, "There's nothing to fear from a midnight knock at the door if you've done nothing wrong; it's none of our business!"

"Exactly, let's just keep drinking."

The Black Dragon Leader and Be Family Patriarch also followed suit.

With Huang Dao here,

They were not afraid.

Seeing their nonchalance, everyone else began to serve themselves food again, and the banquet hall slowly started to bustle.

Jiang Lanting also sat down, watching the three of them incessantly.

"I say, Captain Jiang, do we have to be watched even while eating?" the manor owner expressed displeasure, "Doesn't that count as disturbing the public?"

Jiang Lanting didn't speak, still fixing her gaze on him.

As if she planned to watch over them for life.

Little Dragon Girl, who was waiting to have the cake, now asked Mr. Nangong in confusion, "Grandpa, Grandpa, what's happening with everyone? Why are they so tense? Can I eat my cake now?"

"Of course, you certainly can."

Mr. Nangong smiled and gently stroked her head.

Then.

He stood up and addressed everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the unforeseen incidents during the banquet. I feel terribly sorry for any inconvenience caused and the poor hospitality, but from this point on, all I want is to celebrate my granddaughter's birthday, so..."

At that moment.

A man came from the corridor, saying while walking, "So, is it time for the cake now?"

Everyone looked up.

They were all dumbfounded and their eyes widened with shock!

Qin Feng?!

Everyone gasped in astonishment.

Could it be Qin Feng who had arrived?

Wasn't he "on the run"? Wasn't he taken down by the Ao Huang Three Families? How could he be here?

All were utterly surprised.

Even Chen Lun and the Ao Huang Three Families included.

"No, impossible, how, how did he come back..."

Members of the Ao Huang Three Families exchanged glances, filled with disbelief.

They were aware of Huang Dao's cultivation level; how could he not have captured Qin Feng?

At this moment.

Qin Feng, seeing the shocked expressions of everyone, blinked in bewilderment and said, "What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?"

As he spoke, he even wiped his face to make sure it was clean.

"Lanting, what's wrong with your eyes? Why are you crying?"

Qin Feng noticed Jiang Lanting's eyes were red and swollen, a tear rolling down her cheek. Check for the latest updates on My Virtual Library Empire (*).

"Pfft, as if I would cry over you!"

Jiang Lanting quickly wiped away her tears, then pressed, "Where have you been all this time? Are you hurt anywhere?"

"The restroom!"

"Nonsense! I just went looking for you in the men's room, and you weren't there!"

"You... went to the men's room?!"

"That's not the point, the point is where did you actually go?!"

"Oh, I was in a restroom on a different floor."

Qin Feng explained.

This floor was busy with the banquet hall, and the restroom was crowded, so he had gone to the restroom on the floor above instead.

"You, you..."

Another tear surged from Jiang Lanting's eyes as she cursed, "You jerk!!"

With that.

She turned and strode away.

Reaching a secluded corner, she hurriedly called her superior, "The person has been found; we can stand down."

Back inside the banquet hall.

Qin Feng, as if nothing had happened, returned to his seat smiling and said to Mr. Nangong, "My apologies, old sir, I had a bit of a stomach issue, hence the delay."

"Hahaha, it's alright, as long as you're fine, let's continue drinking!"

Mr. Nangong replied, also smiling.

Subsequently.

Everyone resumed drinking, enjoying the feast, singing the birthday song for the adorable Little Dragon Girl, blowing out candles, cutting the cake...

After some time.

The birthday banquet finally ended, and people began to leave one after another.

Qin Feng and his two companions bid Mr. Nangong farewell and were about to leave when Mr. Nangong called out to him, hesitating before saying, "Qin Feng, heed my advice, stay at the Bright Pearl Palace tonight!"
