Return of the King, Dominating the City

Chapter 2070: Chapter 1854_2

Song Yun cupped his hands towards Huang Jinseng and began, "Senior..."

"Wait a minute." Yaksha interrupted Song Yun. "Just say what you need, no need to get too familiar."

Upon hearing this, Huang Jinseng furrowed his brows.

If Song Yun established a relationship with Changshan, that would mean something different.

But surprisingly, Yaksha seemed to have no such intention.

Song Yun nodded to the old man, then looked at Huang Jinseng and asked, "Senior, is Dongfang Yun around?"

Huang Jinseng said, "Little Yun had an epiphany during the Four Gates Martial Arts Assembly and is already in seclusion. I’m afraid you won’t be able to see her now. However, she asked me to tell you to meet in a month."

Song Yun chuckled cheekily, "Senior, when she comes out, please tell her for me that I will miss her."

Returning to Azure Dragon Villa, looking at the women coming to greet him, Song Yun still felt that home was best.

Gu Zi had returned early, and upon seeing Song Yun, she acted as if nothing had happened, her face composed.

This girl had really put Song Yun through the wringer.

As Song Yun was leaving Changshan, he overheard those Changshan disciples remarking that he was hypocritical, but secretly abducting young girls.

Unjust, utterly unjust!

Thinking of this, Song Yun shot a glance at Gu Zi.

"Song Yun, you must be tired, come inside and rest."

Gu Zi stuck out her tongue and quickly came over to curry favor.

At dinner, with Song Yun back home, naturally the ladies had to showcase their skills.

By nightfall, Song Yun found himself quite busy.

Over the night, he changed rooms three times.

Finally, he ended up sleeping in Li Shishi’s room.

Waking up at dawn, he played some advanced moves with a history book before getting up.

Unknowingly, twelve days had passed.

Song Yun took two Vast Essence Pills. Although he hadn’t advanced to the SSS level, he was pleased that his Phantom Step had made progress, reaching a distance of five hundred meters in one step.

This speed was comparable to the late SSS level.

As long as he didn’t encounter someone who cultivated vision techniques or equally strong movement techniques, he was already unbeatable.

Along with the Black Light Severing Sword, he felt that, at least for now, he had no opponents.

As a result, advancing to the SSS level didn’t seem so crucial anymore.

Yet he still hoped to advance in his heart.

Because he wanted to see what the new world that Master Hao Lan mentioned was like.

He wanted to understand the true nature of this world.

He didn’t like this feeling of being left in the dark.

At that moment, Chen Mengjie called, saying she encountered something in France and asking if Song Yun had time.

Song Yun was currently at a bottleneck, so he decided to go out for a bit. He bought a ticket for the day and flew to France.

At the airport, Chen Mengjie suddenly rushed up to give Song Yun a bear hug, her soft body made Song Yun a little distracted.

He had thought Chen Mengjie would be very busy, but it turned out she had been idle for over a month, traveling around doing nothing.

Song Yun asked in confusion, "What’s going on? Isn’t your crew strict? Don’t you need to film?"

Chen Mengjie pouted, a helpless expression on her pure face, "It’s a bit complicated. The crew had a location set for filming, but due to some reasons, the site was sealed off by the Black Hand Sect. Director Arnold negotiated with them, but there’s been no progress. And a few days ago, we even got news that Arnold was beaten up by the Black Hand Sect."

"Something like this happened." Song Yun furrowed his brow, frustrated, "No wonder you haven’t come back, turns out you can’t start filming."

Saying this, he turned to Chen Mengjie’s bodyguard and asked, "Which family’s Black Hand Sect is giving the crew trouble?"

Song Yun didn’t really want to help the crew; he didn’t have a good impression of Arnold.

But in order for Chen Mengjie to return home quickly, he had to help.

Otherwise, who knows when the filming would conclude.

Chen Mengjie’s bodyguard shook his head, "I don’t know either, you’ll have to ask the director."

"Where is Arnold now?"

"Hold on, let me ask."

Chen Mengjie’s bodyguard made a call and said to Song Yun: "At Saint Mary Hospital."

Song Yun said: "Let’s go, let’s meet him and resolve the issue. I don’t want you stuck in France forever. The rooms in my villa are ready for you, just waiting for your return."

Hearing this, Chen Mengjie muttered: "I’m not going to stay at your place."

"Hehe, decide that when we get back."

Song Yun turned back and smiled at Chen Mengjie, thinking that he would tell her about her family situation once the film crew’s matters were settled.

The three of them arrived at Saint Mary Hospital and met Arnold.

To Song Yun’s surprise, Director Arnold was seriously injured, with casts on his legs and arms, bedridden and unable to move.

But this was expected, the Black Hand doesn’t show mercy.

Arnold glanced at Song Yun, frowned, and asked: "What are you here for?"

After losing a pool game to Song Yun at a bar last time, Arnold drank a lot, and he still felt apprehensive about Song Yun.

"I’m here to understand the difficulties the crew is facing, maybe I can help."

Song Yun sat down on the sofa by the bed, looking at Arnold with a smile.

"Help?!" Arnold smiled wryly and shook his head, saying: "I’m afraid you can’t help, those people are not someone we can provoke."

Arnold didn’t believe Song Yun could help, but Song Yun didn’t mind, and asked: "First, tell me what’s going on, I have a few friends in Europe, maybe they can help."

Arnold was silent for a moment; although he felt hopeless, he still recounted the events.

After listening, Song Yun finally understood that the cause of the incident was actually because of Chen Mengjie.

It turned out that while shooting, a high-ranking member of the Black Hand Sect saw Chen Mengjie and became interested. He approached Arnold, offering to buy a night with Chen Mengjie.

What Song Yun didn’t expect was that although Arnold was somewhat annoying, he still maintained his bottom line in this situation and refused the Black Hand Sect leader.

Unexpectedly, this action offended that Black Hand Sect leader.

In the following days, the crew found no peace, repeatedly harassed by the Black Hand Sect, causing injuries to many.

Later, the Black Hand Sect came directly to block the location, resulting in the crew halting production.

Arnold went to negotiate, prepared to settle the matter with money, but was unexpectedly attacked, ending up with broken limbs and hospitalized.

Furthermore, the Black Hand Sect declared that the crew should not expect to finish filming, even if they changed locations, they’d continue to harass them.

Speaking of these matters, Arnold felt despondent.

"I didn’t expect that you didn’t sell out Chen Mengjie."

Song Yun smiled, looking at Arnold with some surprise.

Arnold said proudly: "I, Arnold, am not that kind of person."

Song Yun asked: "By the way, which family’s people have been harassing you?"

Arnold replied: "The Vassey Family."

Song Yun knew the Vassey Family; it’s a very powerful Black Hand Sect family in Europe and one of the four major Black Hand Sect families.

In the past, during his time with the Black Flag, he had interactions with the Vassey Family.

However, his relationship with the Vassey Family was not good, almost adversarial.

Especially with the leader, Guno Wasi, whom Song Yun had once cut off an ear, making him a bitter enemy.

The incidents back then didn’t bother Song Yun much.

He never imagined that after leaving the circle for so long, he would have another chance to clash with the Vassey Family.

However, with his increased power and broader horizons, his mindset was completely different from before.

The Vassey Family’s influence is vast, but in Song Yun’s eyes, it’s nothing.

He is now someone who clashes with Wolf Castle, the Desla Family, and the Dark Holy See, yet in the Western World, the Vassey Family is several levels below those major forces.

But Song Yun felt some doubt, according to the Vassey Family’s usual style, if Arnold didn’t hand over Chen Mengjie, they’d surely take her by force.

So why didn’t they do so?

He turned to Chen Mengjie’s bodyguard and asked: "Did anyone try to contact Chen Mengjie?"

Chen Mengjie’s bodyguard said: "Previously, four people from the Vassey Family came to the hotel wanting to take Chen Mengjie, I drove them away and revealed Miss Chen’s identity, and since then, they haven’t returned."

Ordinary subordinates from the Vassey Family are certainly no match for the bodyguard Song Yun specifically arranged for Chen Mengjie.

However, the reputation of Chen Mengjie’s bodyguard isn’t enough to intimidate the Vassey Family.

Yet they didn’t go after Chen Mengjie afterward, just continued to trouble the crew.
