Chapter 533: Doves Don’t Mate With Crows

Before experiencing rebirth, Qin Feng had been to Dragon Capital a few times.

This was indeed the center of the entire Huaxia’s government. It was more of a fortress than a city.

There were countless A-tiers in the city and most of them did not originate from Dragon Capital itself. When they were in the city, they were not able to acquire special treatments at all like they would outside of the city’s walls.

Qin Feng was a king amongst the mercenaries. He had come here to Dragon Capital back then because it could offer countless missions and contracts. When he first came here, Qin Feng too felt excited.

Now, this was all just some unique scenery to him.

Finally, their vehicles had arrived at the entrance—a fifty-meter tall gate. Looking from afar, this gate appeared to be just like the other ma.s.sive scales of the dragons.

“Dragon Capital monitors everyone digitally who enters through the gate. So, all you have to do is flash out your identification and scan at the entrance.” Shang Han informed everyone via the vehicles’ communicators.

As they got closer, the hover tanks lowered down to the ground and zipped into the gate. Shang Han’s vehicle was the first to enter. She rolled down her tank’s window and flashed out her silver card.

It was quite apparent that Shang Han’s card was different from the others—Qin Feng’s and the others’ were white in color.

As they scanned their identification, the gate let them through. The vehicles then drove through a pa.s.sage after the gate. Everyone thought that there would be another long drive through in that fifty-meter wide pa.s.sage again and be welcomed by artificial lights in the encased city. However, as their vehicles got in, their eyes widened in amazement.

The first thing they noticed was that there was sunlight. Despite the city’s turtled up structure, they could see the bright sky from inside the city.

Of course, Qin Feng knew this “sunlight” and “bright sky” were fake.

“What you see above is the result of the heights of artificial climate technology in Dragon Capital. The city could maintain artificial sunlight and rain via crystal cores. On top of that, the land here is br.i.m.m.i.n.g with heaven and earth spirit aura. When they install special runes and diagrams at great expense of crystal cores, everyone who is born inside the Dragon Capital has a 100% chance of being awakened with abilities!”

“What?”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

100%?

When they recalled, the ones in Chengbei colony only had 15% rate of awakening.

Qin Feng continued with his explanation, “Amongst the awakened, 30% are apt.i.tude users. And every one of them could awaken ancient warrior talents. This is why every single citizen of this city is a capable warrior!”

Zhou Hao and Jin Fei felt great pressure after hearing this.

Meanwhile, Bai Li looked around and said, “Oooh! The environment here seems cozy!”

Jin Fei mustered a bitter smile. “Not just the environment. The people here seem very happy. Look. Every child and elderly that our vehicle pa.s.sed by were showing genuine smiles and laughter. ”

Jin Fei was from the City of Death.

Every single person in that city lived cautiously. They needed to be aware of their surroundings because every soul around them could mug or murder them for a penny. A joyful city like this was like a fairy tale for him.

“Yes, you are right. To many, this city is heaven. There is no danger whatsoever in here!”

As they were talking, clouds started to envelop the sky before a light drizzle started to shower the city. Under the artificial sunlight, an arc of rainbow formed above them as the drizzle continued to lightly shower on them.

The scenery was quite relaxing.

Thus, no one talked in the vehicle again as they continued to drive for another ten minutes before reaching a majestic hotel.

As their vehicles parked outside, they got down and walked into the hotel.

This hotel was, of course, where they would be staying.

As they were checking in, a man walked out of the lobby’s lift. He stopped and took a look at Qin Feng and the others.

“Oh? Shang Han? Is that you?”

Qin Feng instinctively looked at the lean, skinny man who was giving Shang Han a sly look.

Qin Feng frowned.

He did not know this man. However, he was sure this man was an A-tier.

This would mean that this man was already gone when Qin Feng ranked up to be an A-rank back then.

“Ah, it’s General Ge!” A glimpse of annoyance could be seen on Shang Han’s face before she forced up a smile to greet the man.

This man was Ge Lang—an ancient warrior from the west region of Huaxia. Needless to say, he was quite powerful too. In fact, he was as strong as Cui Lian.

“Oh, you’re leading this group of kids yourself? Ah, yes. Of course. Cui Lian had recently pa.s.sed away. And now you’re a widow, eh? Hahaha! Hey, how about I marry you? Perhaps then, I would aid you in managing the north for you, aye?” Ge Lang’s joke was sleazy and unfunny.

On top of that, it was very disrespectful.

Even though Shang Han and Cui Lian did not really love one another, he was still her husband. Instead of giving her some words of comfort, this sleazebag tried to take advantage of her.

Shang Han pulled up a long face after hearing this.

Not only her, the prodigies too were enraged by his words. However, they dared not to call him up on it because he had an A-tier badge pinned on his chest.

“Heh, is it General Ge? You know, I wonder if you’ve heard this saying before?” Qin Feng smirked.

“Oh? What saying?” Ge Lang instinctively looked at Qin Feng.

“Doves don’t mate with crows!”

After hearing Qin Feng’s roasting, the prodigies who were standing behind him started to laugh out loud. Even Bai Li could not help but to burst into laughter too.

Shang Han was now more relaxed as she nodded to Qin Feng, indicating that she appreciated him standing up for her.

She was a powerful regent. However, she was also a woman. No matter how strongly she protested, she would still not be treated seriously.

Ge Lang, on the other hand, glared at Qin Feng furiously—it felt as though his aura was going to explode in his face!

“What a little brat! How dare you talk to me like that? Do you not know who I am?” Ge Lang barked out furiously as he unleashed a powerful wave of auric pressure on Qin Feng.

Booom!

Seeing this, Shang Han too unleashed her own aura. In an instant, the two powerful auric waves clashed with one another.

“General Ge, I could say the same to you too. How dare you insult me like this? Do you not value your own life? You know, I could murder the sh*t out of you because of your insolence!”

Shang Han’s murderous intent was clear as day.

As the two powerful A-tiers were locking eyes with one another, freezing the air around them, everyone else in the lobby was so scared that they dared not make a sound. Even the receptionists were shaking profusely in fear.

It was then, another person walked into the lobby.

“What’s going on here, huh? Oh, it’s Regent Shang. C’mon now, the matches have not even started yet. It’s not nice to fight right now.” A soft, warm voice rippled through the air and cut off the two tenacious auras.

It was a middle-aged, fair-skinned man with an elegant vibe.

This time, Qin Feng recognized who this was.

This man was, in the time before Qin Feng was reborn, one of the strongest men in the south—the A8-tier Nangong s.h.i.+.

However, with a quick glance at Nangong s.h.i.+’s chest, Qin Feng realized that he was still at A3-tier. Perhaps, this man was still climbing steadily to the A8-tier in the next nine years. He also noticed that Nangong s.h.i.+ was a water-type apt.i.tude user—the calming voice that cut off Shang Han and Ge Lang’s auras was a water-type aura.

Ge Lang and Shang Han retracted their auras; however, Ge Lang did not seem to have let Qin Feng go. He glared at Qin Feng. “Hehe, Shang Han. I’ll let you go this time. But! You’ll have to hand me this brat! I’ll discipline him for you personally!”
