Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

The boy was beaten black and blue, but he still tightly guarded a tattered cloth bag.

"I didn't steal anything! This was left to me by my mother!" the boy cried.

"How dare you quibble!" Another sturdy man kicked the boy in the stomach, and the boy curled up on the ground in pain.

Lu Yuan looked at this scene and felt a little unhappy. What he hated most was bullying the weak.

"Stop!" Lu Yuan shouted and walked over.

When the strong men saw Lu Yuan, they were all stunned.

"Kid, who are you? Don't meddle in other people's business!" a sturdy man warned.

Lu Yuan sneered, "I'll take care of it today! All of you, get out of here!"

"You are looking for death!" Several strong men suddenly became furious and surrounded Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan smiled disdainfully, and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

The next moment, several strong men felt a flash before their eyes, and then they flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, groaning in pain.

Lu Yuan walked up to the young man, stretched out his hand, and helped him up.

"Are you okay?" Lu Yuan asked.

The boy raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Thank you..." the boy said with a sob.

Lu Yuan patted the boy's shoulder and said, "It's okay. Be careful next time."

After saying that, Lu Yuan turned and left, leaving everyone stunned.

At this time, a mysterious man in black clothes and a bamboo hat appeared in the crowd, staring at the direction where Lu Yuan was leaving...

The boy looked at Lu Yuan gratefully, tears still welling up in his eyes. "Big brother, thank you! My name is Xiaobao, my mother is sick, I need money to buy her medicine..."

Lu Yuan waved his hands impatiently, "Alright, stop crying like a woman. You want money, right?" He took out a handful of gold leaves and threw them in front of Xiao Bao like trash, "Take it and get out of here."

Xiaobao stared blankly at the golden leaves on the ground, then looked at Lu Yuan, at a loss for what to do.

"What are you still standing there for? You think it's too little? I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!" Lu Yuan shouted impatiently.

Xiaobao quickly picked up the gold leaves and left with many thanks.

Lu Yuan looked at Xiao Bao's departing back and curled his lips in disdain. He didn't take such a small character seriously at all.

At this time, the man in black clothes and a bamboo hat in the crowd followed quietly.

Lu Yuan continued to stroll on the street, and suddenly, he saw a plaque hanging on the door of a shop with "Tianxianglou" written on it.

"Tianxiang Tower? What is this place?" Lu Yuan walked in curiously.

As soon as he entered the door, a rich fragrance hit him in the face, making Lu Yuan's appetite whetted.

A seductively dressed woman came up to him and said delicately, "Sir, welcome to Tianxiang Tower. What can I do for you?"

Lu Yuan looked around and found that the place was decorated magnificently and the guests were all rich or noble.

"What are your signature dishes?" Lu Yuan asked.

"We have many signature dishes at Tianxianglou, such as 'Auspicious Dragon and Phoenix', 'Phoenix Dancing in the Sky', 'A Hundred Flowers in Full Bloom' and so on. They are all carefully prepared with rare ingredients and are guaranteed to satisfy you." The woman introduced enthusiastically.

Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's have 'Dragon and Phoenix'."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment." After the woman said this, she twisted her waist and left.

Lu Yuan found a seat and sat down, sipping his tea while admiring the surrounding scenery.

Not long after, the woman came over with a plate of food and placed it in front of Lu Yuan.

"Sir, your 'Dragon and Phoenix'." Lu Yuan looked closely and saw a dragon and a phoenix placed on the plate, lifelike and fragrant.

"Yes, it looks very good." Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of dragon meat and put it into his mouth.

"Well, it tastes really good." Lu Yuan exclaimed.

He finished the whole plate of "Dragon and Phoenix" in one breath, then ordered a pot of wine and savored it slowly.

Just then, a discordant voice rang out.

"Sir, are you eating a free meal?"

Lu Yuan turned around and saw a burly man with a fleshy face walking towards him, followed by a few thugs.

"Dine for free? What do you mean?" Lu Yuan frowned.

"What do you mean? You ate our Tianxianglou's signature dishes and drank our fine wine, don't you want to pay?" the man said arrogantly.

Lu Yuan sneered, "When did I say I wouldn't pay? I just haven't finished eating yet."

"Haven't you finished eating yet? You've already eaten up the 'Auspicious Dragon and Phoenix', and you still want to deny your debt?" the man asked angrily.

"I told you, I haven't finished eating yet." Lu Yuan said calmly, "I want to order a few more dishes and drink a few more bottles of wine."

"You..." The man was so angry that he couldn't speak.

"What? Don't you welcome guests in Tianxiang Tower?" Lu Yuan looked at the man provocatively.

The man took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said, "Of course you are welcome, but I hope you can pay off the previous bill first."

Lu Yuan took out a piece of silver and threw it on the table, "Is that enough?"

The man picked up the silver and looked at it, his face suddenly turned pale. "Are you...are you trying to humiliate me? Do you know how much the 'Dragon and Phoenix' is worth? This piece of silver is not even a fraction of it!"

Lu Yuan smiled disdainfully, "Really? Then tell me, how much does 'Dragon and Phoenix' cost?"

"'Dragon and Phoenix' are worth a fortune!" the man said gritting his teeth.

"A thousand gold?" Lu Yuan laughed. "This broken thing is worth a thousand gold? Do you think I'm a fool?"

"You..." The man was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Lu Yuan and said, "Boy, you dare to play tricks on me!"

"So what if I play tricks on you?" Lu Yuan stood up and looked down at the man. "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of me playing tricks on you?"

"You're looking for death!" the man roared and punched Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan dodged the man's attack easily with a flash of his body, then kicked him in the stomach.

The man screamed, flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and spit out blood.

"With just this little ability, you dare to be arrogant in front of me?" Lu Yuan snorted disdainfully.

Seeing this, the other thugs drew their weapons and attacked Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan sneered, and moved through the crowd like a ghost, punching and kicking, knocking down several thugs one by one.

In a blink of an eye, all the thugs were lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

Lu Yuan clapped his hands, looking relaxed.

At this time, a clear voice rang out.

"stop!"

Lu Yuan turned around and saw a beautiful woman in white walking towards him.

This woman was none other than Lin Qingxue.

"Lu Yuan, you...you're causing trouble again?" Lin Qingxue said anxiously, looking at the thugs wailing on the ground. (End of this chapter)
