Hiss!

With Qin Tian's command, everyone at the prison gate was stunned!

Even Zhou Yang and Lin Yu were caught off guard!

Arrest He Mingdong?

They knew what it meant. Is the boss really going to go head-to-head with He Mingdong? With the Ninth Prince?

In their view, Qin Tian's arrival seemed like using an egg to hit a rock.

"Hahaha... Arrest me? Just you, Qin Tian!?"

He Mingdong laughed, arrogantly, "Kid, you've only been in the Imperial City for a few days, do you know what your status is in my eyes? A country bumpkin from outside! Arrest me, you don't have that authority or ability!"

Qin Tian kept a cold face, saying, "Whether or not I have the authority, I don't know. As for ability, I have more than enough! Take him down!"

Qin Tian ordered Lin Yu.

Seeing Qin Tian's resolute attitude, Lin Yu knew Qin Tian was genuinely furious. He responded and waved his hand, and four soldiers charged toward He Mingdong!

"Get lost!"

He Mingdong roared, releasing True Qi throughout his body, with just one move, he instantly sent those four flying!

He Mingdong, a Longevity Realm expert, with a roar, slapped the soldier at the forefront, sending him flying and killing him instantly!

Boom!

Watching this, Qin Tian's mind roared and he instantly flew into a rage!

"Who dares to come up? Courting death!"

He Mingdong said coldly, and as he spoke, Qin Tian was already moving against him!

Bang!

At close range, their palms collided!

Pop!

A massive True Qi Shock Wave spread through the air, pushing the surrounding soldiers back!

Dong dong dong!

At the same time, He Mingdong was also pushed back by Qin Tian's palm, his face stiff!

"Longevity Realm... not bad!"

He Mingdong grinned hideously, "My cultivation in the Imperial City is insignificant, but to deal with you, this country bumpkin, more than enough!"

He Mingdong's eyes swept around, loudly commanding, "Men! Aren't you going to attack with me?"

He brought three hundred soldiers, ready to act at his command.

But Qin Tian shouted angrily, "Who dares to come up, is a rebel! Even the heavenly king can't save you! Try it!?"

This shout carried a tiger-like intimidation and penetration, startling everyone, He Mingdong's men were immediately frightened and dared not act!

"Oh dear, Governor Qin Tian, Governor He, what are you doing, how did things escalate to fighting?"

As tensions were reaching a peak, another Deputy Governor, Sun Wei, arrived with his men, wearing a smiling face.

"Governor Qin Tian, what on earth happened here, why has there been a murder?"

Seeing a dead person on the ground, Sun Wei was momentarily stunned.

Qin Tian snorted coldly, "Thanks to He Mingdong!"

Sun Wei immediately looked at He Mingdong, "Governor He, what happened, acting against Governor Qin Tian is defying your superior..."

"Stop laughing, damn it!"

Sun Wei, pretending to mediate, was abruptly interrupted by He Mingdong.

"Sun Wei, you think you're clever, but I know exactly what you're doing! Waiting for the tigers to fight, huh? You'll see!" He Mingdong said angrily to Sun Wei.

Sun Wei remained smiling, "Governor He, I'm not provoking you, why lash out at me? What really happened, it's an internal East Gate matter, no need to resort to killing."

"Hmph, claiming ignorance, I'll bet you're thrilled inside, right? Let me tell you, your plans have gone awry!"

He Mingdong glared at Qin Tian with a murderous look, "Trying to use me as a tool for murder, someone actually wants to assist! Fine, let's see if this tool can kill!"

"I said I've got the skills! You idiot!"

Seeing He Mingdong's arrogance even in Sun Wei's presence, Qin Tian turned his face, and acted against He Mingdong right before Sun Wei!

He Mingdong growled, and they began fighting immediately!

The other soldiers were dumbfounded, Sun Wei smirked slightly and gestured for the others not to act, allowing them to fight slowly.

"Hehe, I truly am witnessing the battle of the tigers, He Mingdong, hope you don't lose to this kid."

Sun Wei thought, "However, best if you die by the hands of this kid, leaving no room for the Ninth Prince's people at the East Gate!"

Sun Wei was a Crown Prince's man, naturally wanting Qin Tian to stir things up, and better yet, kill He Mingdong.

Even if the Ninth Prince's fury descends, it wouldn't concern him, the fate of Qin Tian doesn't matter to him.

In the skies above the East Gate, Qin Tian and He Mingdong erupted into a fierce battle.

Two Longevity Realm experts engaging fiercely, which was not uncommon in the Imperial City, some were even used to it.

Their True Qi churned the sky.

But in some estates with high-level guardians, their True Qi couldn't even spread.

He Mingdong wasn't considered an expert in the Imperial City, yet Qin Tian faced him with full caution.

This man had a Middle Stage Longevity Realm cultivation, and seemed to have been in the Middle Stage for at least a year, along with a Magical Artifact Divine Sword, Qin Tian fought him over thirty rounds before securing the advantage.

Throughout the process, Qin Tian refrained from using Fire Attribute True Qi and Ice Attribute True Qi, nor did he utilize the Divine Vein Technique to avoid revealing his true strength to the observing Sun Wei.

Bang, bang, bang!

Once Qin Tian gained the advantage, his fierce onslaught resembled a storm, leaving He Mingdong overwhelmed.

He Mingdong's golden sword vibrated, he attempted to retaliate with his ultimate move, yet Qin Tian's preemptive strikes suppressed him outright.

Dong!

Qin Tian directly clutched He Mingdong's sword-wielding wrist!

Their True Qi clashed, He Mingdong couldn't withstand it, his face turned red from being overwhelmed!

"Hiss... this kid is not to be underestimated!"

Seeing Qin Tian already defeat He Mingdong, Sun Wei's face turned serious, evidently, he hadn't expected Qin Tian to handle He Mingdong so swiftly.

Dong!

Clutching He Mingdong, they landed simultaneously!

The surrounding folks fell silent, their eyes fixed on the two in the center, wondering if Qin Tian would actually imprison He Mingdong.

"Peasant, see my prowess now? Told you, dealing with you, more than enough!"

Qin Tian exuded a fierce aura, speaking to He Mingdong.

He Mingdong's face twisted, "Qin Tian, you're doomed! You're doomed!"

"Governor Sun, answer me, defying superiors, colluding with demons, what's the punishment!"

Qin Tian suddenly turned to Sun Wei, asking.

"Defying superiors is imprisonment, colluding with demons is a death sentence." Sun Wei replied, a smile crept on his face, "Governor Qin Tian, you've won, let's drop it... this matter, let it go..."

He approached cunningly, hinting:

"Governor He and the Ninth Prince are friends, you shouldn't offend them, or the consequences will be severe... Governor Qin Tian, best if you release him quickly..."
