Tang Yuan’s anger rose to his limits. Just as he was about to jump up and shout out his name, Jun Mo Xie restrained him with a hand. If both of them were the one to step forward, their reputation would suffer.

Originally, Tang Yuan was the one in the wrong. If Qin Xiao Bao had not cursed in such a vicious manner, then this whole matter would have been over with just a few words. However, after listening to Qin Hu’s words, Jun Mo Xie’s killing intent was lit.

Jun Mo Xie’s manner of conduct has never been about morals. He would act on his own whim, deciding if someone was an ally or enemy in a heartbeat. After hearing Qin Hu’s words, Jun Mo Xie had resolved to not show any mercy to the Northern City Clan!

Like father, like son. Who knows how many people would suffer under these men. Considering how both father and son were bastards, Jun Mo Xie believed that killing them would be an act of helping Heaven dispense justice, one that would earn great karma!

The leader of the Tang Family’s bodyguards stood up. The other three men behind him followed suit, as their bodies all exuded a silver radiance. The four Silver Xuan experts stepped forward in tandem, their gaze sword-like. “A mere Qin Hu?”

Qin Hu was momentarily shocked as he felt a powerful pressure converging on him. His mind thinking and his body channeling Xuan Qi, causing his body to glow with a golden radiance. He then retracted his arrogant demeanor and cautiously replied. “I am Qin Hu, the Clan Leader of the Northern City Clan. May I ask whom might you be?”

A Gold Xuan expert!

As the master of a clan, this Qin Hu was indeed not an ordinary person!

However, this Gold Xuan expert’s heart was currently thumping rapidly. Having witnessed the strength of the opposing side, the Clan Leader of the Northern City Clan immediately changed his attitude!

Naturally, he would not view those Silver Xuan experts highly. But the problem was that the two bastards were capable of having four Silver Xuan experts as bodyguards! What could this mean? What kind of backing do these two have? Could it be that his son had once again provoked someone he should not?

A Gold Xuan expert was indeed qualified to become a Clan Leader. Within the city, Qin Hu was considered to be quite the influential individual. However, the number of people that Qin Hu could not afford to provoke remained considerable!

Qin Hu recalled that not too long ago, his son had provoked a very handsome Young Master by molesting a beautiful maid of that Young Master. Back then, the Young Master did not retaliate in any way.

However, after night fell, all the senior members of the Northern City Clan were captured. They were then transported to a hidden place. As for Qin Hu, his Xuan Qi cultivation which was once at the peak of Gold Xuan ended up falling down one stage to the middle stages of Gold Xuan after being constantly beaten by them. His son, Qin Xiao Bao, on the other hand, had his dantian broken and could no longer cultivate Xuan Qi!

After three days and three nights, they were finally released. But the price of freedom was becoming nothing but the pawns of that Young Master. Even after that, he still could not find out the identity of that young master but he could guess that he was most likely from one of the clans with sky-high authority!

In the face of the influential nobles of the royal court, not even the average Earth Xuan expert could afford to provoke them, much less a mere Gold Xuan Qi expert!

Currently, the one standing before him had a posture, which excluded a strength far beyond that mysterious Young Master. In addition, the flower boy seemed even more handsome compared to the mysterious Young Master. Could it have been that both of these brats were of the same type of existence as the mysterious Young Master?

“Clan Leader of the Northern City Clan, Qin Hu? Never heard of it. Where has garbage like you surfaced from? To think that you would dare be act so presumptuous, as to who am I? You are not even qualified to know, but today your son has actually dared to offend our Young Master Tang, a unforgivable sin. But our Young Master is a generous man. After merely giving your son a light punishment, he decided to let your son off! As a father, not only should you have felt grateful, you should have taken this opportunity to discipline your son! Instead, you brought your men to pin the blame on others. In addition, you are colluding with some officials to capture these two Young Masters, it seems like you have grown some balls!” The leader of the bodyguards said slowly, staring straight at Qin Hu

What great proclamation! Jun Mo Xie secretly applauded. With just a few sentences, this bodyguard leader had thrown all the crimes onto Qin Xiao Bao, giving no room for Qin Hu to refute. But not only that, he was able to change Fatty Tang’s reputation into someone with great class. Just by considering his skill in bullshitting, this man was certainly a talent, an absolutely great talent!

“The Eldest Young Master of the Tang Family?” Hearing those words, Qin Hu nearly fainted right there. The one family he feared most at the current was none other than the Tang Family. The reason was simple, a guilty conscience!

Even though the mysterious Young Master was terrifying, ignorance is bliss. Qin Hu had naturally feared the mysterious Young Master, but neither the identity nor true strength of his background was known. But the Tang Family was a whole other matter! The Tang Family was a renowned name in the whole city. It would be akin to child’s play for the Tang Family to destroy his tiny, little Northern City Clan.

Not even mentioning, the fact that he had previously followed the instructions of the mysterious Young Master to steal the Xuan Core from the Tang Family. As of now, the situation remained dire.

Every single day, he had dreaded that the Tang Family would suddenly appear before his doorstep, bringing the destruction of his Northern City Clan with it.

Who could have guessed that his own son would end up provoking the Eldest Young Master of the Tang Family at this critical moment! With such an impressive self-destroying move, how was he supposed to live through this?

At this moment, Qin Hu felt that he was about to faint! When faced with such dangerous people, one would not want but hide quickly. But his son instead willingly went ahead to offend them!

Even if you want to commit suicide, do you have to commit suicide in such a manner? Normal people would turn back after hitting into a brick wall, but why did his own son not only turn away but continued hitting the wall?

Looking at his son who was sprawled on the floor, blood splattered all over his body after being ‘lightly punished’ by the Eldest Young Master Tang, Qin Hu felt anger, worry, and heartache. His Northern City Clan may not be a lightweight powerhouse, but when compared to the highly influential Tang Family, it was no different from an ant compared to a tiger.

This only son of his was simply too spoilt. Back then, he had already lost his Datian back then and his chance of cultivation, which was equal to half of his life. And yet, he did not keep that lesson in mind. It seemed that his life would be forfeit this time around.

However, the ones who were feeling dreadful were not only Qin Hu, but also those four officers. They had originally intended to help Master Qin relieve his anger and in the process earn a small fortune. How could they have guessed that the person would be Young Master Tang? This was no longer a monetary problem, but a life and death situation!

“As for you trash of the government, stay still and wait for your superiors to come. I want to question them, is this how the men from the Ministry of Justice conduct themselves? Complying with the wishes of underground gangs and oppressing the weak, common man, becoming dogs for men? Naught but a servant of injustice!”

Tang Yuan gave the few officers a deep and sinister stare, each and every one of his words was just and righteous! However, these words should not have come out from Tang Yuan’s mouth. It should have been directed at Tang Yuan instead!

Jun Mo Xie who was listening by the side felt tempted to burst out into laughter. Fatty Tang sure had guts, to call himself a weak, common man!

The four officers’ face became deathly pale as they turned to look at one another, their bodies swaying weakly as though it was about to fall. If Tang Yuan had shouted slightly louder, then these men would have been scared to death!

Who was Tang Yuan’s father-in-law to be? It was, Sun Chenghe, the Vice-Minister of the Ministry of Justice, the very one in charge of all of them. Their superior was a subordinate of Sun Chenghe. If their superior came and saw that they had colluded with the Northern City Clan to deal with the son-in-law of the one above them, how much trouble would that cause? When that happened, these four bastards would suffer a fate worse than death.

These four officers were truly unfortunate. They had naturally heard of the Eldest Young Master Tang, but they were truly too low in the system and as such, have never seen him before As an exalted individual, Tang Yuan was someone whom they have only heard of. Today, however, was the day they found themselves slammed with his identity!

“It turns out that this person is the Eldest Young Master Tang. Please accept my sincerest apology,”

Qin Hu’s facial expression immediately changed into one with a flattering smile. He clasped his hands together courteously as he saluted.

“This lowly one has eyes but failed to see Mount Tai. I have deeply offended Young Master Tang. I had even troubled Young Master Tang to help in disciplining my son. This lowly one is deeply grateful and hopes that the immeasurably generous senior Young Master Tang would show some leniency.”

Tang Yuan held his nose up high and snorted, ignoring Qin Hu. He turned to face the four bodyguards and said.

“This brat was being rough with me for no reason, there must a story behind it! I now suspect that there is a relation between the Northern City Clan and the robbery case of my Tang Residence. Bring this brat together and interrogate him properly.”

The four bodyguards immediately acknowledged the order, but present on their face was a pained expression. They had the same thoughts together.

This matter was originally your fault, to begin with. Your snot had landed on someone else’s face, and then you beat that person to the point of death. Now his father had already apologized to you in such a humble manner, but instead, you decide to accuse others of being a thief. This is far too much.

These words were simply the result of Tang Yuan’s vexed emotions, a way for him to vent his anger. He simply accused Qin Xiao Bao of whatever he could think of after all Qin Xiao Bao had offended him during the worst time possible. How would Tang Yuan just let him off go just like that?

But how could Tang Yuan have known that this nonsensical accusation of his was just like a cat running into a dead mouse! Without any form of cunning or skill, he had actually caught the thief!
