The Rebirth of the Legendary King
Old Mobile
Urban has changed a lot compared to last year. Actually the Chen Family was already in Shadow City, but there were some who were still stationed here. Even the Yuan Family, Liam, and Su Wen Ai were also still here.
Liam was the one who came home the earliest. But he found no one at home. Finally he asked the waiter, "Where are my grandfather and my parents?"
*
Elsewhere, the Yu Family was being surrounded by several people in military uniforms. There was Liam's parents there too.
"Hows it? Have you contacted Young Master Chen and the others?" ask Mr. Yu.
Master Zhuo shook his head. He replied, "They are very strong. Even one of them could jump off the roof without fear. Ordinary people like us are no match for them. If Young Master Chen and the others return, we can't involve them either."
He knew that Ling and the others were in Shadow City. But he also remembered that they were young.
"These people .. are strong. Next time you guys get attacked again, come to the Yu Family. Although we have not been able to protect you, at least here is Miss Zhuo's legacy" said Mr. Yu.
"alright. Master Yu, do you know why those people came to Urban City?" ask Liam's father, Mr. Zhuo.
Mr. Yu's gaze looked blank. He replied, "This happened 10 years ago. Back then, Miss Zhuo as the recipient of the phoenix plaque saved our city."
"Miss Zhuo saved our city? Then let's find Miss Zhuo, " said Mr. Zhuo.
"I also think like that. But remember, Miss Zhuo is not from Urban City. At that time he happened to come and help this city. He can't come back a second time. He is not a random person," replied Master Yu while shaking his head.
The two of them returned to discussion. But after a while, they did not get any results.
"The Zhuo Family Business is quite big. I wouldn't have a problem giving it to them. Liam's in Shadow City anyway. But I can't stand idly by when I see the Chen Family being treated like that" said Mr. Zhuo.
*
Mr. Zhuo returned to the Zhuo residence.
As he entered the house, he realized that the elders who had always been in the ancestral hall, they were all sitting at the meeting table. As his gaze circulated, he saw Liam dragging a chair and sitting among them.
"Father dismissed the Zhuo Family workers, closed the herb shop, and dispersed the auction venue. No elder dared to answer honestly. So, Dad tell me, what's going on?" liam said directly. His face was smiling, but he was not smiling at all.
"Liam's? Why are you even here? Aren't you in Shadow City?" asked Mr. Zhuo in shock.
"Why am I here? Ling and I have things to do. We are back together" Liam replied.
"What's? Young Master Chen is back? Where is he now?!" asked Mr. Zhuo who reflexively pulled Liam's collar. His face looks even paler now.
"Of course to the Chen Family residence," Liam replied as he furrowed his brows. He could not understand why his father was overreacting.
"Chen Family? Liam, quickly contact Young Master Chen! We can't let him come to the Chen Family now!" said Mr. Zhuo in panic.
Although Liam was still astonished, he still called Ling.
Back then, Ling knew that in the Chen Family there were only a few people. So, he decided to visit his teacher first. Upon hearing this answer, Liam's father heaved a sigh of relief.

On the way, Ling was astonished when he received Liam's call, but he didn't think much of this. As he turned to wait for the Zhuo Family's invitation, he was suddenly stopped by a few youths. The young men were the same age as Ling.
They all look exhausted. But when one of the young men saw Ling, his eyes twinkled. He ran to get to Ling.
"Can I borrow your phone to call?" ask the young man.
Before Ling answered, another girl spoke again. He wears a hairy coat and his clothes look more presentable. His face looked wiser than the others.
"Sorry, we are from TOP University. We came here for the winter break. For some reason, we just got off the mountain and arrived here after two days and two nights. There is no signal on our cell phone. We have also asked some people, but we did not manage to call our city" she said.
How could a college student look so energized after walking two days and two nights? Ling obviously did not trust them, but he remained calm. So he didn't take out his phone and just gave me a walkie-talkie.
The Shadow City's communication device was already more advanced. The walkie-talkie wasn't very big and light enough. There's just a number button and a call button there.
"Miss Xie, don't waste your time on that old phone" the young man said in a derogatory tone.
Ling kept the thing back. He confirmed his white jacket and smiled faintly. Dressing like this in winter looks cool on her body.
Miss Xia was a little stunned to see Ling.
"Young Master, you're not a local, are you? Urban City is not safe now. If you're willing, you can come with us" Miss Xie said kindly.
"No need, I'm a local" Ling said. He saw that the Zhuo Family car had arrived. He took a few steps forward. Then he left the student group.
*
Ling arrived at the Zhuo Family residence.
There, he saw the elders and Master Yu was already waiting. Even Yuan and Su Wen Ai arrived first.
"Young Master Chen, you're finally here!" said Mr. Zhuo breathing a sigh of relief.
"Uncle, what's going on?" asked Ling looking fixedly at Master Zhuo.
"I know! Before I came here, I heard from my father that the Chen Family has been subdued. When I wanted to know more, Liam happened to come. So, I took Su Wen Ai and we went here," Yuan replied.
Mr. Zhuo was still silent. He took Ling and the others into the house. After making sure it was safe enough, he closed some windows.
"Young Master Chen, do you remember the potion you left before leaving? Those people were in black robes and were eyeing potions. They managed to get it. They climbed up the wall and jumped off the roof" said Mr. Zhuo in a slightly cold tone.
"Why are they here?" ask Ling.
"I'm not sure either. The moment they occupied the Chen Family, Mr. Yu and I had already tried to send a message to Shadow City. But the message was always intercepted for no reason. There must be an expert behind them. Therefore I do not want you to return to the Chen Family residence. At present the residence was already their territory. I don't expect you to return now," replied Master Zhuo with a bitter smile.
"Jump off the roof?" asked Yuan in a mocking tone. For him it was easy. Even people who had just entered Shadow City could do just that. Don't talk about Ling, he alone can crush them without moving a hand.
"Have you ever come to the Chen Family residence?" asked Ling in a soft voice.
Master Zhuo only nodded weakly.
"When there is no king of the jungle in the forest, the fish should not go on land" Ling said coldly.
Urban City was the territory of Zhuo Xia and the birthplace of Ling. No one dared to offend the region when they found out about this.
"Alright, then I'll go home" Ling said again.
"Come home?" asked Mr. Zhuo in shock.
That means Ling is going to the Chen Family residence?
Mr. Zhuo's face changed. He could not catch up to Ling who had walked far away. So he could only draw Liam's hand which was also about to leave.
"Liam, listen to me. I know Young Master Chen is very strong, but we are no match for them now. Not to mention in Urban City many ordinary people. If until our actions endanger ordinary people, we can be captured by Shadow City. We will be in big trouble" said Mr. Zhuo, who was already very panicked.
Liam patted his father's shoulder softly, "Don't worry, Dad. We won't harm ordinary people."
"It's good that you understand. Now quickly stop Young Master Chen," said Mr. Zhuo a little relieved.
But Liam now remembers how people from his family don't work anymore. He remembered how all the shops and auctions were closed. Not to mention when he saw the look on the faces of the elders who looked very frightened.
Right now, his eyes were emitting a murderous glint.
He replied with emotion, "Stop it? Why should I stop him? They think ordinary people like us are easily bullied? They were tortured in Shadow City and did not dare to disturb anymore. But apparently, they chose a remote area and wanted to dominate. But what a pity, they chose Ling territory."
"Liam! Don't go!" Mr. Zhuo shouted and tried to reach Liam who had passed.
