“Was it you who hit our company’s man?” Yan Botao looked at the young man who had just been beaten. The young man’s face was already swollen. When had he ever suffered such humiliation when he was in the Sun family?
He was the grandson of an elder in the Sun family, who had fought for this opportunity, thinking that he could make a difference here. But who would have thought that he would be beaten on his second day here.
At this moment, he was looking at Yan Botao with a wronged expression, hoping that Yan Botao could stand up for him.
“What did you say?” Hou Wu was taken aback, somewhat surprised by Yan Botao’s question. Was Yan Botao asking if he was the one who hit this man?
“Yes, I hit him.”
“Everyone here saw it.” Hou Wu looked around in surprise and said, “I’m not wrong, am I? You all saw it, I hit this man.” The crowd around him was too embarrassed to say anything.
“Yes, it was our Brother Wu who hit him, we can all testify!” The followers behind him were also laughing and joking, completely disregarding Yan Botao and his group.
After saying that, Hou Wu turned around and squinted at Yan Botao, “You see, so many people can testify, it was me who hit him. So what? What’s the big deal?”
“Let me tell you the truth, I’m in a good mood today, so I only slapped him. Be grateful and move on. If it were any other day, I don’t know if he would still be breathing.” After saying that, he saw the young man from the Sun family still looking at him, Hou Wu sneered, “What, brat, you don’t want your eyeballs anymore? Do you want me to gouge them out for you?” The young man from the Sun family turned pale and quickly looked away.
Those familiar with Hou Wu believed his words. There were quite a few people who had offended Hou Wu and ended up dead by his hands.
There were also many who had been ruined by Hou Wu. Many people knew that Hou Wu was backed by the Hai family and worked for them.
But it was not just that, many who knew the inside story were aware that Hou Wu was also a nephew of Hai Dongsheng.
Although he was arrogant and domineering on normal days, he was able to handle the tasks assigned to him by Hai Dongsheng, so Hai Dongsheng took good care of his nephew.
He offended people outside, but due to the face of the Hai family, no one dared to say anything. They could only endure it.
This made Hou Wu more and more arrogant and lawless. What about being born first? Dare to offend the Hai family?
Dare to offend my brother-in-law Hai Dongsheng? This was Hou Wu’s confidence! However, just as Hou Wu was looking at Yan Botao with pride, thinking that he had given Yan Botao a show of his power, Yan Botao suddenly kicked out, hitting Hou Wu’s knee directly.
With a crisp crack, Hou Wu’s leg bone was shattered on the spot by Yan Botao, and it was visibly seen that Hou Wu’s leg had been bent backward.
“Ah!” Hou Wu fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Hou Wu was in so much pain that his veins were bulging, and his clothes were soaked with sweat in an instant. Hou Wu couldn’t believe what had just happened.
Hou Wu never thought that Yan Botao would dare to hit him.
“Brother Wu!” The followers who came with Hou Wu were also stunned. Seeing Hou Wu’s leg, they even felt their own legs go numb.
What was going on? They had never encountered this before. Who dared to fight back when they bullied people in the past?
“Hiss!” The other customers on the scene also took a sharp breath, looking at Yan Botao with shocked faces. Yan Botao actually dared to hit someone from the Hai family!
Didn’t he know what the Minghai Trading Company represented in Path Mark City?
“You dare to break my leg!” Hou Wu roared with a ferocious look on his face, “Do you know who I am? Do you know who’s behind me? I’m telling you, you’re dead, and your Changqing Trading Company won’t be able to continue either!”
“Whoever is behind you is behind you.” Yan Botao looked at Hou Wu indifferently, “But in my Changqing Trading Company, anyone who hurts my company, I’ve already been kind by breaking one of your legs. If this were in Changting Town, someone like you would have been thrown out onto the street to feed the dogs.”
“You’re fucking looking for death!” Hou Wu covered his leg, his eyes wide with murderous intent, “I’m telling you now, the Hai family is behind me, and my brother-in-law is Hai Dongsheng, the eldest son of the Hai family! You’re fucking blind, wait for me to go back and call someone to kill your whole family, your Yan family, I’ll leave no one alive, everyone in your company will die!”
“The reason why a dog is still barking is because it hasn’t been hit hard enough.” Yan Botao’s eyes darkened.
“Crack!” Yan Botao stepped forward and crushed the ankle of Hou Wu’s other leg. Hou Wu’s bones were as brittle as biscuits under Yan Botao’s foot.
Hearing that sound, everyone present felt a chill rise up their backs. They found that this Yan Botao was really a ruthless character.
His moves, oh no, his kicks were really brutal. And knowing that the Hai family was behind Hou Wu, he was still so ruthless.
Could it be that he really wasn’t afraid of the Hai family? Was he relying on something, or was he just a fearless young bull?
“Ah, fuck your grandpa!” Hou Wu screamed in pain, he was about to pass out, he was writhing on the ground like a shrimp that had its whiskers pulled off, the pain was sweeping through his body, making him shiver all over, his face was as white as a sheet.
Hou Wu never expected that after bringing up the Hai family and his brother-in-law, he would get another kick.
He had never experienced anything like this before.
“Do you know what pain is now?” Yan Botao said coldly, “If you’re still not in pain, I don’t mind crippling your third leg.”
“No, no, I was wrong, I was wrong, Chairman, I was wrong. It’s all my fault, I’ll leave, I’ll leave right now.” Hou Wu was really scared this time, he was essentially a bully who was afraid of the tough. Since bringing up the Hai family didn’t work, Hou Wu really had no other options.
He could see that if he continued to be arrogant, Yan Botao could really cripple his third leg. If he didn’t beg for mercy now, when would he?
He couldn’t afford to lose his third leg.”Go back and tell your master that the recipes of Changqing Trading Company are not for sale. He’d better give up on this idea.” Bai Jingfei, who was standing behind, also stepped forward and said.
“Alright, I’ll go back and tell my brother-in-law.” After saying this, Hou Wu was about to pick up the silver ticket on the ground.
However, just as he reached out his hand, the silver ticket suddenly flew up and landed in Yan Botao’s hand.
“You came to my company to cause trouble, beat up my people, and knocked over my goods. This silver is considered compensation.” Yan Botao calmly pocketed the silver ticket.
“Of course, of course.” Hou Wu quickly agreed with a flattering smile. His underlings hurriedly came up to help him up. Hou Wu’s leg was in excruciating pain, but he gritted his teeth and stood up. However, as he turned around, a vicious expression flashed in his eyes.
Changqing Trading Company, just wait. I will make you suffer more than I did. The humiliation I suffered today, I will make you pay back tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold!
Just as Hou Wu was about to leave, he heard Yan Botao speak again: “Wait.” Hou Wu’s heart skipped a beat, but he stopped and turned around with a fawning smile: “President, is there anything else?” Yan Botao pointed to the ground and said, “Aren’t you going to clean up the mess?”
“Clean up, clean up.” Hou Wu quickly agreed, then hurriedly scolded his underlings: “Why aren’t you cleaning up?”
“No need to go to such trouble.” Yan Botao said with a smile: “It’s been so long, it’s already dry. It might be hard to wipe. You can just kneel down and lick it clean.”
“What?!” Hou Wu couldn’t believe his ears, and his expression was filled with horror. Everyone present was shocked and looked at Yan Botao. The president of this company really knew how to play!
But why did everyone seem to be looking forward to such a disgusting scene, wanting to see Hou Wu kneeling on the ground and licking the floor?
“Didn’t you hear me clearly? But I don’t like to repeat myself.” Yan Botao’s voice calmed down, and his gaze fell on Hou Wu’s legs.
As if a wave of death swept over him, Hou Wu felt a chill in his crotch and quickly said: “I’ll lick it, I’ll lick it clean, I promise.” After saying that, he fell to the ground.
The scene was somewhat disgusting, and some people couldn’t bear to look directly at it. Even his underlings frowned.
Not to mention Hou Wu himself.
“Who the hell just spat several times…” Hou Wu cursed. The underling who had spat several times didn’t dare to make a sound.
After Hou Wu had cleaned the ground, he and his men scrambled away.
“We’ve thoroughly offended the Hai family.” Zhao Yiqiu came up and said: “I don’t know how the Hai family will react, Yunling Trading Company hasn’t made a move yet.”
“There’s nothing to worry about.” Yan Botao confidently said: “The Grand Master has said, when soldiers come, we block, when water comes, we cover. Whatever the Hai family wants to do, we’ll just deal with it. As for Yunling Trading Company, there’s no need to worry. The Grand Master said that Yunling Trading Company won’t side with the Hai family, nor will they be our enemy.”
“Yunling Trading Company won’t be our enemy?” Zhao Yiqiu and Bai Jingfei were somewhat curious. Changqing Trading Company had come to their territory to steal their business, how could Yunling Trading Company not be their enemy?
The Yunling Sect wouldn’t be so easy to talk to, right?
“The Grand Master said so, he had already notified the Yunling Sect in advance.” Yan Botao shook his head: “Since the Grand Master said so, we just need to believe him.” Hearing this, Zhao Yiqiu and Bai Jingfei were somewhat surprised. Did Li Changqing have a past with the Yunling Sect?
Thinking of the mysterious and powerful Li Changqing, they felt more confident. Changting Town, Yan Family.
At this moment, Li Changqing was in the bamboo forest behind, carving the longevity wood according to his own ideas. Previously, he had been doing it casually, but this time, after hearing Yin Shuyu’s words, Li Changqing directly set a target for the wood carving in his mind, and then began to carve.
However, this time, something happened that even Li Changqing himself found surprising. His carving became very difficult.
The work that was usually very familiar to him became extremely difficult, and even removing a piece of wood chip took a lot of effort.
Not only that, after carving for the time of two incense sticks, he hadn’t even carved out a rough shape yet. Li Changqing felt extremely tired, his eyelids were fighting, and sleepiness was coming. He felt like he could fall asleep on the ground at any time.
This feeling of fatigue was something he had never experienced before. Since coming to the Cangyuan Realm, Li Changqing had never felt his Divine Soul being consumed so quickly.
Carving was difficult and particularly draining. Li Changqing seemed to understand. Could it be that the carving was so against the heavens that it was so difficult?
What was hindering him? Was it the so-called Heavenly Dao? Or the rules of this Cangyuan Realm? But no matter what, even if the progress was slow, Li Changqing planned to finish this carving to add a layer of protection for his son.
After feeling the difficulty of this carving, Li Changqing was not discouraged. Since he could carve, he could definitely make it.
It was just a matter of time. He would carve slowly. In his previous life, he had also worked hard for half a year for a large wood carving.
If he was tired from carving, he could just take a nap to replenish his energy. So Li Changqing simply had Zhang Fuguang build a simple hut in the bamboo forest, and he lived there, letting Fei guard the outside.
By the way, he told Zhang Fuguang that he was going to retreat for a while, and Zhang Fuguang could just bring his meals to the outside of the bamboo forest every day.
Zhang Fuguang nodded in understanding. He was a little curious about what Li Changqing was cultivating, but he didn’t ask too much.
Just like Li Changqing had taken them in, but never asked why they had come from the Great Yuan Dynasty to Minghong Prefecture.
Zhang Fuguang was also grateful in his heart that Li Changqing hadn’t asked. Because of this reason, Zhang Fuguang didn’t really want to talk about it.He still cleaned the courtyard punctually every day, then spent peaceful days with his daughter. Mu Haifeng was on.
After this period of recuperation, Li Hengsheng’s body had fully recovered. Upon learning that it was Li Jinsong who had saved him, Li Hengsheng made a special trip to the Floating Image Pavilion to thank Li Jinsong after he woke up.
After all, Li Jinsong was the Pavilion Master of the Floating Image Pavilion. It would be inappropriate not to express his gratitude properly for saving him despite his high status.
“There’s no need to be polite. You are my disciple from the Dao Mountain Ancient Land, it’s only right that I saved you.” Li Jinsong said with a smile.
He genuinely liked Li Hengsheng.
“But you must be careful in the future.” Li Jinsong warned, “You have immense potential and unparalleled comprehension. You are bound to have a bright future, but you lack experience in the world. Be more cautious in the future. The Ghost Clan keeps a close eye on our human clan’s geniuses, fearing the rise of another strong human.”
“Thank you, Pavilion Master. I will be more careful in the future.” Li Hengsheng suddenly asked out of curiosity, “I heard that something happened to the sect a few days ago after I woke up. Even the sect’s large array was activated, as if someone had broken in. What happened?”
