Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1280: The Origin of the Jade Commander’s Name

"Oh, really?"

"Not convinced? Then come with me to the gym. There's a special ring here in the fitness center. Dare to go?"

Tang Yu looked at Li Feng. Although the other person was 1.8 meters tall and looked solidly built, Tang Yu really didn't regard him as a worthy opponent.

After all, Tang Yu had been practicing martial arts since childhood and had walked the borderlines as a teenager.

And the jade business he ran, the jade mines weren't located in Tian Nan Province. Although there was some here, the bulk was in the Northern Federation to the south.

The Northern Federation wasn't as socially stable as Yan Country, with various armed forces and a government that was merely the largest armed faction, with internal struggles being intense.

However, the Northern Federation had the world's largest jade and gemstone mines. In the Federation, jade wasn't widely accepted, but in the cultural circles of Yan Country, jade was given great significance.

For example, the saying "a gentleman is like jade"; jade represents beauty and nobility.

Yan Country has a five-thousand-year history with jade, showing the fondness Yan people have for jade, and this affection hasn't lessened even in modern times. With the economic boom of Yan Country, the demand for jade has increased.

Therefore, jade mines have also become a source of wealth for local armed forces in the Northern Federation. To obtain jade, you must first have the strength to negotiate with these local armed forces.

Tang Yu could become the Jade Marshal not only because of his family's deep roots but also because he had a secret mercenary force in the Northern Federation, controlling several jade mines while also having good relations with some local powers.

Others couldn't get hold of the jade mines, but he could, and not only could he get them, but he could transport them back to Yan Country, effectively opening up the jade industry chain.

And this industry chain has brought him substantial rewards. After all, jade isn't valuable in the Northern Federation.

And Tang Yu's achievements weren't based on family power but entirely fought for by himself.

He might appear gentle and refined, dressed elegantly, but who knows how many lives have been taken to uphold the name of the Jade Marshal.

"Why wouldn't I dare."

The two men faced off, neither giving an inch.

Soon, they walked out of the restaurant one after the other, with the meal becoming completely unimportant.

Gao Yuanyuan watched their backs, frowned, and turned to Lin Wan'er, "Wan'er, Junior Sister, Bai Yutang didn't seem to offend you. Why do you always target him?"

Lin Wan'er shrugged.

"Senior Sister Gao, you're being too serious. I just think Bai Yutang has been getting a bit arrogant recently, so I gave him some lessons to remind him that there's always someone better out there."

"Otherwise, when we reach Kunlun, his sharp tongue could cause conflicts, and it would be troublesome for us."

Lin Wan'er's explanation was a bit far-fetched, but Gao Yuanyuan couldn't really do much about it, despite Lin Wan'er being the eldest daughter of the Lin Family and the Family Head's precious jewel.

No matter how excessive she was, Bai Yutang could only take the fall.

"Senior Sister, speaking of which, that Jade Marshal Tang Yu is quite impressive. He's only in his thirties but has already achieved a lot, with wealth exceeding billions, and the Tang Family is a top family in Tian Nan Province."

"What do you mean?"

"Heh, nothing, just saying that if Senior Sister is thinking about getting married, Tang Yu would be a good choice."

"Of course, if Senior Sister prefers younger ones, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Lin Wan'er spoke with a hint of suggestion.

Gao Yuanyuan gritted her teeth. It wasn't rare for female disciples of the Mountain Villa to marry out. Although the Lin Family didn't operate like a sect, it functioned more on family rules. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

The Lin Family was the head of the family, and the others were merely servants, while so-called external elders were merely Guest Elders.

So marrying off female disciples to form alliances with secular families was common practice, though the Family Head wouldn't casually assign it to someone like Gao Yuanyuan, a closed-door disciple.

The two women eventually reached the gym in the hotel.

The ring was cleared.

"What's going on?"

Those working out noticed the commotion and curiously went over to ask.

"Not sure, but the one on the stage is the Jade Marshal."

"The Jade Marshal?"

Nearby people gasped in shock.

This hotel was a five-star high-end resort, not open to the public, only accepting members, and those qualified to dine and stay here were undoubtedly wealthy and prominent.

So it wasn't surprising that some people present recognized Tang Yu, as the Jade Marshal's name was well-known locally.

"Look over there."

Someone pointed towards the ring and the distinguished Gao Yuanyuan and Lin Wan'er.

Most men there weren't lacking women, but when they saw these two, their eyes lit up.

"Stunners, could the Jade Marshal be here for these two ladies, hehe."

The person showed an expression that every man understood.

"Most likely, that cool and aloof goddess, tsk, such a cold demeanor with a fiery figure, it's like ice and fire. I just want to pin her down on the bed...!"

"The other younger one isn't bad either, if only I could have them both...!"

Before he could finish his fantasy, his head suddenly throbbed as if punched, and he fell backward onto the floor.

"Buddy, are you alright?"

Lin Wan'er gave a cold laugh, "You dare imagine such things about me."

Then suddenly there was a sound of a whistle from below the ring.

"Wow, the Jade Marshal's figure is really..." some people took a deep breath because they'd only ever seen Tang Yu as a suave individual, full of elegance, a cultured businessman.

But when Tang Yu took off his jacket and even unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his upper body, the knife scars and bullet marks made people gasp in amazement.

"Hmph, you didn't think the name Jade Marshal came from his jade business, did you? Do you think just anyone can bring Northern Federation jade back to the country?"

Someone who knew a bit of the inside story scoffed.

Tang Yu stretched his muscles and joints, making cracking sounds, which directly elicited screams from some women.

"Jade Marshal, such a good man!"

"Jade Marshal, can I come to your room tonight?"

Li Feng listened to the shouts below and couldn't help but feel speechless, but seeing Tang Yu's scars, he realized the man had a story.

But boasting to him, Li Feng, meant hitting an iron wall.

To throw money around, to flaunt wealth, Li Feng couldn't do it. After all, he was currently impersonating Bai Yutang, who had grown up in Divine Sword Manor, likely not even knowing what money was.

But if it came down to martial arts, Li Feng didn't need to hold back.

The Ancient Martial World was all about cultivating martial arts and seeking the way.

"Kid, it's not too late to regret now. As long as you obediently get away from the women I've set my eyes on, not only will I spare you, but I can also give you a few million."

"Take the money and find a woman that suits your level, wouldn't that be nice?"

Listening to Tang Yu, Li Feng smirked disdainfully, raising his hand and beckoning Tang Yu with a finger.

"Who's going to beat whom is still up in the air!"
