The First Venerable of All Paths

"Young Master!"

Master Zhong looked at Fang Xuan with a righteous and stern expression, patted his chest and said, "Rest assured, even if the Fang family is destroyed, this old servant will follow you, never abandoning you, through thick and thin, without flinching!"

Fang Xuan smiled calmly, his face full of satisfaction.

Zhongye's loyalty has never wavered.

But the next second, Master Zhong's eyes darted around, and he immediately put on a guilty look, chuckling awkwardly, "Um... young master, this old servant suddenly remembered that a young lady has invited me to have tea, so I won't keep you company for now."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shrank his neck and tiptoed away, preparing to make a quick getaway.

"Old man, did I say you could leave?"

Su Yang's eyes widened, and he coldly snorted, "Grab him!"

Upon hearing this, the two guards behind Su Yang strode forward and walked towards Master Zhong.

"What are you going to do?"

Master Zhong hurriedly retreated in a panic, his face contorted with bravado, and said, "I'm warning you, if you dare to lay a finger on me, my young master won't let you get away with it!"

"Fang Xuan?"

Su Yang laughed triumphantly, his face contorted with rage, and said, "That good-for-nothing can't even protect himself, how could he possibly care about you?"

"You've offended the Blood Fiend Gang; your Fang family will be wiped out sooner or later."

Su Yang looked at Fang Xuan and said sneer, "Believe it or not, even if I beat you to death, this piece of trash Fang Xuan won't dare to utter a single fart!"

"Young Master, this brat is humiliating you!"

Grandpa Zhong was furious and felt indignant on Fang Xuan's behalf.

"I can tell."

Forcing himself to suppress the urge to slap the old man to death, Fang Xuan looked at Su Yang.

His tone was icy, and his killing intent was palpable.

"You can try touching him!"

A chilling aura emanated from Fang Xuan, and the innate sword box on his back trembled softly.

The chilling sword intent emanating from it seemed ready to burst forth at any moment.

Feeling that heart-pounding pressure, Su Yang felt a sudden panic and subconsciously took a half step back.

But he quickly regained his composure and sneered, "Fang Xuan, you dare to use such a low-level provocation to embarrass yourself? This young master won't fall for your tricks."

He had been severely warned by Manager Lan for his rash actions at Tianbaolou last time.

If something goes wrong again, the entire Su family might be implicated.

The thought of the guy who hurt him back then filled Su Yang with resentment.

He sent people to investigate for a long time, but the other party seemed to have vanished into thin air, clearly having already left Qingyang County.

"Young master, all your belongings have been prepared. Please check them."

Just then, a maid in green came over carrying a storage bag and respectfully handed it to Fang Xuan.

Fang Xuan nodded and picked up the storage bag to check it.

The number is correct, with no omissions.

"How many yuan stones?"

"Reporting to Young Master, the total is 186,000 Yuan Stones."

Fang Xuan frowned slightly.

Yuan Stones are a cultivation resource and currency used throughout the Nine Provinces Continent, containing pure Yuan Qi.

Spirit stones, which are a level higher than Yuan Stones, can only be absorbed and refined by experts at the Divine Intent Realm or above.

In the past, he wouldn't have cared about 180,000 or even 1.8 million spirit stones, let alone 180,000.

But now the Fang family has suffered a great calamity, and their savings have been almost completely depleted.

He really couldn't come up with 180,000 Yuan Stones right away.

"Fang Xuan, you really overestimate yourself."

Seeing Fang Xuan's hesitant expression, Su Yang laughed loudly, "Eighteen thousand yuan stones, can you come up with that?"

"Young Master, how dare he look down on you! It's outrageous!"

Master Zhong, head held high and chest puffed out, said arrogantly, "Young Master, quick, take out the spirit stones and smash them in this brat's face! Give him a good slap!"

"Alright, stop pretending in front of me."

Su Yang said, "The Fang family is already at its end. 180,000 yuan stones is the death knell for your Fang family."

Based on his understanding of the Fang family, they don't have much wealth left now.

"Young Master?"

Grandpa Zhong stared at Fang Xuan expectantly, hoping he would take out the Yuan Stone and slap Su Yang in the face.

but.

Fang Xuan frankly said, "I really can't produce that many yuan stones."

"what?"

Zhongye's mouth slowly opened wide, and he covered his face and backed away.

Young master, you tried to show off but ended up getting fucked instead.

This is such a disgrace to this old servant!

"Hahaha."

Su Yang laughed triumphantly, tears streaming down his face.

"This is absolutely hilarious!"

Su Yang pointed to the ground and said, "Fang Xuan, how about this? As long as you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, and call me 'Grandpa' three times, I'll buy whatever you want today, let alone this mere 800,000 yuan stones."

Is this really true?

Before Fang Xuan could speak, Zhong Ye immediately fawned over Su Yang, rubbing his hands together and chuckling, "Can I buy anything?"

This scene left everyone present stunned.

Fang Xuan remained calm and silent.

The maid in green glanced at Fang Xuan, then at Master Zhong, and shook her head inwardly.

This young master is quite handsome, but how come his servants are so incompetent?

The others looked at Fang Xuan with disdain and mockery.

This young master of the Fang family has truly lost all face, unable to even control his own servants.

Su Yang was also taken aback, then his smile became even more smug.

To be able to publicly humiliate Fang Xuan was like eating an ice-cold watermelon on a sweltering summer day – refreshing from head to toe.

That felt so good!

"certainly!"

Su Yang crossed his arms and said arrogantly, "My word is my bond!"

"Then I won't stand on ceremony, Master Zhong."

Master Zhong turned to the dumbfounded maid in green beside him and said matter-of-factly, "Pack up everything in Tianbao Tower for me, and this gentleman will pay."

Upon hearing this, countless people stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded.

Pack up everything in Tianbaolou?

What a boastful tone.

Even if you add up all the wealth in the entire Qingyang County, you still couldn't buy a Tianbao Tower, let alone Su Yang being just a young master of a family.

Su Yang's smile froze on his face.

The next moment, Su Yang pointed at Grandpa Zhong, his anger blazing, and said, "Old man, are you playing me?"

"Hmm, what Young Master Su said is quite strange."

Master Zhong asked with a puzzled look, "Didn't you say you'd cover everything, no matter what we bought? Or was Young Master Su just talking nonsense?"

"Pfft!"

The maid in green couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Immediately afterwards, bursts of laughter rang out.

Su Yang's face immediately turned red.

"You old bastard, you're asking for it!"

Having lost so much face in front of so many people, Su Yang wished he could dig a hole and crawl into it.

In particular, the laughter sounded extremely grating to him.

Enraged, Su Yang shouted, "Take this old bastard down! I'm going to smash his mouth!"

"Please show some respect, Young Master Su."

A maid in green stepped forward and said calmly, "Has Young Master Su already forgotten the lesson he learned last time?"

One sentence was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, instantly calming Su Yang down.

He gritted his teeth, but ultimately dared not act recklessly at Tianbaolou, and could only suppress his anger.

"Fang Xuan."

Su Yang looked at Fang Xuan coldly, "According to the rules of Tianbao Tower, if you can't pay the spirit stones, you'll be kicked out of here and banned from entering for life!"

"Young Master Fang, our Tianbao Pavilion does indeed have this rule."

The maid in green said gently, "If you don't have enough spirit stones on you, young master, you can send someone to get them. Alternatively, you can take your things back first, and we will send someone to accompany you to get the spirit stones."

"Alright, stop making things difficult for him."

Su Yang sneered, "The Fang family probably can't even scrape together 30,000 shi."

"I'll pay for this amount of spirit stones for him."

Before Fang Xuan could speak, a clear voice rang out.

A girl in green slowly walked over.

The girl was pretty, with her hands behind her back, and like an elf, she hopped directly in front of Fang Xuan.

"Brother Fang Xuan, it's been a long time."

The person who arrived was none other than Li Tianjiao, the pride of the Li family.

"Tianjiao, how...how could you do this?"

Su Yang was taken aback upon hearing this.

"Tianjiao, the Fang family has now offended the Blood Fiend Gang, and the day of their annihilation is not far off."

Su Yang said urgently, "If you get too close to Fang Xuan, be careful not to get implicated."

He then reached out to pull Li Tianjiao away.

"Come on, I'll take you to see other places. I'll buy you anything you like."

Li Tianjiao dodged Su Yang's hand and said with a look of disgust, "Who are you? Don't touch me."

"My darling, I am Su Yang, Su Yang of the Su family."

Su Yang said with a hurt expression, "We've met many times, and I was even planning to go to the Li family to propose marriage to you after some time."

"So it's Young Master Su."

Li Tianjiao suddenly realized and said, "It's just that the Su family's threshold is too high for me to reach."

"Tianjiao, you are too modest."

Su Yang said with undisguised joy, "You are the pride of our Qingyang County, and we are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."

"Let's skip it."

Li Tianjiao pouted and said, "I don't want to be the second Fang Xuan."

"Tianjiao, what do you mean?"

Su Yang didn't react for a moment.

"It means..."

With his hands behind his back, Zhongye looked at Su Yang with an air of utter disdain.

"Even without a mirror, you'll still need to pee, right? Who do you think you are, to be worthy of this beautiful lady?"

"Hey, how can a pheasant be worthy of a phoenix? You country bumpkin shouldn't even think about coveting the fairies in the heavens."

Such blunt words almost made Su Yang so angry that he vomited blood.

The surrounding laughter grew even louder.

Su Yang has simply brought shame upon himself.

"You old fool, how dare you humiliate me like this? Do you really think I wouldn't dare kill you?"

Su Yang's eyes were bloodshot, and his body was filled with surging Yuan energy.

This Su Yang has actually broken through to the Body Refinement Realm.

"Young master, save me!"

When Zhongye saw this, he was terrified and quickly hid behind Fang Xuan.

"Young Master, calm down!"

Fortunately, the guards Su Yang brought with him managed to stop him in time.

"We're here to do serious business today, don't let it interfere with us."

Upon hearing this, Su Yang was jolted and completely calmed down.

He took a deep breath to calm himself.

"Fang Xuan, if you're a man, don't rely on women!"

Li Tianjiao rolled her eyes and pulled Fang Xuan aside, saying, "Brother Fang Xuan, don't pay him any attention. He's just jealous of you."

"I'm jealous of him?"

Su Yang almost lost his temper.

His face was stinging from Li Tianjiao's slap.

"I am the young master of the Su family. Would I be jealous of a dying man?"

But Li Tianjiao didn't even glance at him. Instead, he took out a storage bag and handed it to Fang Xuan.

"Brother Fang Xuan, there are 300,000 Yuan Stones in here. Please take them and use them first."

Fearing Fang Xuan would refuse, Li Tianjiao said with a grin, "Consider it a loan from me. You can pay me back whenever it's convenient for you."

Li Tianjiao's actions aroused jealousy and hatred among many people present.

Why doesn't Li Tianjiao treat himself this way?

Why is Fang Xuan so lucky?

"How could I possibly accept this?"

Zhongye was polite in words, but he was quicker to act than anyone else.

Just as Master Zhong was about to take the storage bag, Fang Xuan slapped it away.

"Thank you very much, Tianjiao."

Fang Xuan said with an unchanged smile, "It's just a small matter, I can handle it."
