My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"hehe!"

Jiang Xiaobai glanced at Xiao Qingxiu but didn't respond to his words. Instead, his gaze fell on the white-haired old man in the main seat.

At that moment, the old man also opened his eyes.

The moment their eyes met, Jiang Xiaobai's breath hitched slightly.

Indeed, he felt an invisible pressure pressing down on him, and his chest felt tight.

"noob!"

Tang Ningshuang took half a step forward and lowered her voice, saying, "This old man has a profound aura; he's a martial arts master!"

"That burly man next to me is no pushover either!"

"I can tell!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded slightly, somewhat surprised.

Did Xiao Qingxiu hire a martial arts expert to oversee things?

The old man and the burly man were also not simple people.

As he pondered, the white-haired old man was also scrutinizing Jiang Xiaobai, and after a moment slowly spoke: "You... are..."

"Stop, don't say anything!"

Jiang Xiaobai raised his hand, interrupting the old man's next words.

Ok?

The old man's brows furrowed immediately.

Xiao Qingxiu was also stunned, clearly not expecting Jiang Xiaobai to be so disrespectful as soon as he entered.

Ignoring their reactions, Jiang Xiaobai looked at the old man and said, "Let me ask you a question first!"

"Are you bigger, or is the royal family bigger?"

"this……"

The white-haired old man was visibly taken aback. After a moment's pause, he said, "Naturally, it's the Royal Family!"

"Then why are you still sitting?"

Jiang Xiaobai frowned and pointed at Xiao Qingxiu standing beside him, saying, "The dignified young prince of the Eighth Prince's Mansion is standing next to you, while you, a mere old man, are sitting in the main seat!"

"What, are you trying to rebel by so blatantly putting the royal family above you?"

"nonsense!"

The old man's face twitched.

"Jiang Xiaobai!"

After regaining his senses, Xiao Qingxiu said angrily, "Stop making trouble here! This is...."

"Shut up!"

Jiang Xiaobai turned his head and looked at Xiao Qingxiu, saying, "I have to complain to His Majesty about your self-degradation!"

"As a member of the royal family, he actually offered the seat of honor to an old man!"

"If this gets out, will it only be your Eighth Prince's Mansion that loses face? Hmph, it will be the entire royal family that loses face!"

"you!"

Xiao Qingxiu's mouth gaped open, his face extremely pale.

Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly, then looked at the white-haired old man and said, "Old man, aren't you going to give up your seat? What kind of status do you have to compete with our young prince for a seat!"

The white-haired old man looked unwell, but remained seated without moving.

The burly man next to the old man stared at Jiang Xiaobai, a hint of murderous intent flickering across his face.

"Fine, you won't let me, huh!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and turned to Zhang Xinnian, saying, "Xinnian, go outside and shout a few words!"

"Take this old man for example, vying for the throne with the young prince; he clearly intends to usurp the royal status!"

"Alright!"

After hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, Zhang Xinnian sneered and turned to walk outside.

"I'll kill him!"

The burly man's voice was icy. He took a step forward, intending to make a move, but was stopped by the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man coldly swept his gaze over Jiang Xiaobai, then looked at Xiao Qingxiu and said, "Young Prince, you should take this seat!"

Xiao Qingxiu glared at Jiang Xiaobai, then walked to the main seat, lifted his robe, and prepared to sit down.

But just then, Jiang Xiaobai's voice rang out again: "Wait!"

Xiao Qingxiu froze, and when he turned around, his expression was almost distorted: "Jiang Xiaobai, what are you trying to say now!"

"I want to say that you, as a member of the royal family, are doing everything you can to tarnish the royal family's reputation!"

Jiang Xiaobai, his face contorted with anger, demanded, "I'm asking you, who is the current president of Yipinlou?"

"this……"

Xiao Qingxiu's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

"It's me, right?"

Jiang Xiaobai pointed to himself and continued, "You, a member of the royal family, forcibly took the position of an ordinary commoner like me!"

"You...you shameless bastard!"

puff!

Of the four chairpersons, one couldn't help but laugh out loud, then quickly lowered his head and covered his mouth.

They had personally witnessed just how sharp Jiang Xiaobai's tongue was.

"new year!"

Jiang Xiaobai looked at Zhang Xinnian and said, "Go, announce to the outside world that Xiao Qingxiu, despite being the young prince of the Eighth Prince's Mansion, is not abiding by the rules!"

"Taking advantage of their royal status, they forcibly took the places of us ordinary people..."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhang Xinnian was taken aback, then nodded again and walked outside.

"Jiang Xiaobai!!"

Xiao Qingxiu was trembling with anger, practically spitting out the words through gritted teeth: "Fine, fine, come on, sit down, okay?"

After saying that, Xiao Qingxiu flicked his sleeves and led the white-haired old man down the path, but his gaze toward Jiang Xiaobai was still filled with resentment.

The burly man's gaze was even colder.

Jiang Xiaobai didn't care about any of that, and walked towards the main seat with a smile on his face.

Just as they passed by Xiao Qingxiu and his companion, the burly man beside the white-haired old man's gaze turned cold, and he slightly bent his fingers.

Whoosh!

A pebble suddenly flew out and headed straight for Jiang Xiaobai.

"Clang!"

A piercing sound rang out.

Tang Ningshuang reacted extremely quickly. The moment her longsword was drawn, she precisely blocked Jiang Xiaobai's path, sending the stone flying.

The pebble hit the wooden pillar next to it and became embedded in it.

The princess's gaze turned slightly cold. She took a step forward and struck the burly man with a palm.

boom!

Caught off guard, the burly man was knocked away.

Just as the princess was about to make a move, the white-haired old man immediately raised his hand to meet her.

boom!

A deafening roar suddenly echoed throughout the inner hall, and a strong gust of wind swept outwards, causing the teacups on the table to sway violently.

The princess took a few steps back, and the white-haired old man also took two steps back before he regained his balance.

The burly man stood up, his face slightly pale, and looked in the direction of the princess with a solemn expression.

Clearly, no one expected that this person wearing a straw hat would be so powerful.

"I didn't expect this..."

At this moment, the old man looked at the princess with a surprised expression, then turned to Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Young Master Jiang has quite a few experts around him!"

"Hmph, so many bubbles!"

As Jiang Xiaobai spoke, the Desert Eagle was already in his hand. He raised his hand and fired several shots at the burly man!

Damn it, you ambushed him, didn't you!

Since this burly man is courting death, let's fight him!

boom!boom!

A piercing sound, a series of explosions.

The white-haired old man's expression changed, and he immediately pushed the burly man away, while simultaneously pushing up with both palms.

A powerful surge of internal energy erupted from the old man's body, causing the air in front of him to seem to vibrate.

As the bullets approached, they were deflected by the terrifying force and struck the walls on either side.

This……

Jiang Xiaobai stared at the hole in the wall, his face filled with shock.

This old man was actually able to forcefully deflect the bullet using his internal energy.

That's incredibly strong!?

"The hidden weapon in your hand is indeed quite impressive!"

The white-haired old man slowly withdrew his hand, his expression becoming solemn.

That's right, fortunately Xiao Qingxiu had reminded him in advance.

Otherwise... if he were hit twice so suddenly, he definitely wouldn't be able to withstand it!

"Oh, it's just a little gadget!"

A hint of regret flashed across Jiang Xiaobai's face. After saying a few words, he put away the Desert Eagle.

The old man can deflect bullets, so there's no point in firing another shot.

Amidst the flashing cold light, Jiang Xiaobai glanced at the burly man before sitting down in the main seat.

"Guards, the chairman needs to discuss some confidential matters with the four chairmen!"

"First, kick Xiao Qingxiu and all the other unrelated people out..."
