A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

Lin Xiu stroked Jiang Tingting's head. She blinked, nodded as if she understood, and was about to speak.

Suddenly, a commotion arose from the restaurant next door.

"Bang!~"

First came the crisp sound of bowls and plates shattering, followed by the loud crash of tables and chairs being violently overturned, and finally the exclamations and commotion from the shopkeeper and passersby.

Lin Xiu frowned slightly, spread his divine sense, and instantly took in the situation next door.

.......

About a minute or two ago.

A young man dressed in Jiang family attire led a group of people and arrogantly barged into the restaurant. After an argument, the young man started cursing.

"Old man! You think you're so great? Sister Caixuan and Brother Yifei were kind to you and asked you to come back, out of consideration for blood ties! They wanted to take you back to enjoy a life of luxury!"

"And you, with all the fuss and procrastination, you even moved here and opened a restaurant? What, do you think the Jiang family can't afford to support you?!"

The boy's name was Jiang Yichen, and he was the young prodigy of the Jiang family.

Yes, it's that young prodigy, Jiang Yichen, who was suppressed in the cesspool.

It can only be said that in the early stages of the story, the title of "prodigy" was really worthless.

If the Four Great Emperors' Princess Haoyue can seize the Emperor's Weapon, then Emperor Jiang Yichen of the Dung Pit is certainly a prodigy.

Old Man Jiang's face was deeply wrinkled with worry, and he bowed repeatedly.

“Young Master Yichen, I… I just want to stay in this Holy City and support myself. I have absolutely no intention of disrespecting the family. This restaurant was set up with the help of others; it's my livelihood. Please, have mercy…”

"Find a place to live? Hmph! Can't the Jiang family provide you with a place to live?!"

Jiang Yichen snorted coldly and kicked a perfectly intact wine jar at his feet, shattering it to pieces!

"I see you're just trying to drag this out! You can't bear to leave this wretched place, can you? Fine, I'll help you cut ties cleanly!"

"Smash it! Smash it until this old geezer has nowhere to stay, then he'll obediently go back!"

Old Man Jiang was very anxious and stepped forward to grab Jiang Yichen's sleeve.

"No! Absolutely not!"

Jiang Yichen was already furious. He had never wanted to handle this matter in the first place, and now that he saw this lowly old man from a collateral branch daring to stop him, his disgust intensified, and he suddenly flung his arm away.

"Go away!"

Jiang Yichen had already embarked on the path of cultivation, and although he did not use divine power, this swing was not something an ordinary old man could withstand.

Clang!

Old Jiang felt a strong force coming from him, and he stumbled and fell backward to the ground with a "thud". His lower back hit the overturned stool leg hard, and the pain made his face turn pale and then bluish-white.

"grandfather!"

A startled cry, tinged with tears, came from the doorway.

With red eyes, Jiang Tingting rushed in without a care in the world.

It turned out that Jiang Tingting rushed out of Tianxuan Stone Archway immediately after hearing her grandfather arguing with someone. At this moment, seeing her grandfather fall to the ground, large tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

When Jiang Yichen saw Jiang Tingting rush in, he was taken aback at first. After seeing her face clearly, a strange look flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by annoyance.

He actually accidentally pushed the old man over? If Jiang Caixuan and Jiang Yifei found out...

Jiang Yichen's expression changed, but he still shouted, his voice still stern but his heart pounding:

"What are you looking at? He's the one who lost his footing! You old fool, let me tell you, this is just the beginning! Until you agree to go back to the Jiang family, I'll be here every day to take care of your restaurant business! Let's see how long you can hold out!"

Old Man Jiang clutched his lower back, sweating profusely from the pain. Looking at the domineering Jiang Yichen and the devastation of the tavern, a wave of sorrow washed over him.

The Jiang family, the Jiang family!

Is the Jiang family's reputation really that important?

"Everyone from the Jiang family! Get out of my tavern! Otherwise, I'll call Wei Yi Grandpa!"

Jiang Tingting ran to her grandfather and shielded him behind her, her delicate little face full of stubbornness.

"Wei Yi? You mean that old man from that day?"

"Hmph! Go ahead and yell! Yep if you dare!"

Jiang Yichen wasn't afraid at all that Jiang Tingting called him Wei Yi.

That day, they only brought knights at the Dao Palace level to their door, but this time, he had already contacted an elder at the first level of the Dragon Transformation realm in advance!

What Wei Yi! He's just a wretched old man guarding a dilapidated stone archway. How could he possibly exchange a blow with Elder Hualong?

.......

As soon as Jiang Yichen finished speaking, the next instant

"Buzz!"

A golden light suddenly burst through the restaurant's doors without warning, striking Jiang Yichen's face, which still bore a domineering expression, like a shooting star hitting the moon.

*Smack!*

A slap rang out.

Jiang Yichen didn't even have time to scream before his face twisted and contorted instantly, blood spurting from his mouth along with a few broken teeth, and his body flew uncontrollably off the ground!

"Boom!~"

Finally, Jiang Yichen slammed hard against a thick stone wall across the street! He was almost embedded in it! Cracks spread across the stone wall like a spider web!

A clear handprint quickly swelled up on Jiang Yichen's face and head, and he immediately lost consciousness.

.......

As the golden light faded, Lin Xiu's figure appeared beside Old Man Jiang.

Lin Xiu didn't even glance at Jiang Yichen who had flown away. He reached out and gently helped Old Man Jiang up. A soft, clear light emanated from his palm, allowing the "Divine Spring Daoist Rhyme" copied from the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land to quietly enter Old Man Jiang's body.

As the divine spring's energy flowed, Old Man Jiang's severe waist pain instantly subsided, and a warm current surged through his sprained area. Within a few breaths, he was fully recovered, and his spirits were greatly lifted.

"Uncle Jiang, I'm back. Don't worry, I'll take care of these things completely."

After treating Old Man Jiang, Lin Xiu handed him over to Jiang Tingting.

"Child...child, the Jiang family is powerful and wealthy, it's best not to provoke them."

Old Man Jiang did not want Lin Xiu to get involved in the conflict with the Jiang family because of him.

"Don't worry, Uncle Jiang. Even without you and Tingting, I will still be connected with the Jiang family and will give them a good beating."

"Alright, child, you have your own plans."

Old Man Jiang knew that Lin Xiu indeed possessed many extraordinary qualities.

For example, the Divine Light Platform that transported him and his little girl to the Holy City was a divine object he had never heard of before.

Since Lin Xiu had his own plans, Old Man Jiang stopped trying to dissuade him.

.......

Lin Xiu nodded slightly, his gaze shifting to the two Jiang family knights preparing at the door, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

He discovered that these knights were actually planning to attack him.

"How dare you attack a member of my Jiang family!"

"Capture him!"

The two knights roared, and the aura of the Dao Palace Secret Realm suddenly erupted. They pounced on Lin Xiu from the left and right, their palms flashing with divine light as they unleashed the Jiang family's secret technique, bringing with them a fierce gale.

Lin Xiu shook his head, without moving a step.

He simply raised his right hand and swung it forward in a straightforward motion!

A simple, unadorned punch!

"puff!"

"puff!"

Two soft sounds.

The two Jiang family knights who rushed forward were struck as if by lightning. The protective divine light around their bodies shattered as easily as paper, and a large crater was simultaneously formed in their chests. They were sent flying backward at an even faster speed than when they came!

Chapter 61 The Dragon Transformation Elder (First Update)

The restaurant was eerily silent, both inside and out.

The crowd watching from afar fell silent, their gazes towards Lin Xiu filled with horror. That was a knight of the Jiang family!

The cultivators of the Dao Palace Secret Realm were all crippled with a single punch?

"Who dares to harm a member of the Jiang family?!"

A furious roar came from afar, and even before it got close, a powerful pressure had already enveloped the entire street.

Lin Xiu slowly turned around, facing the end of the long street.

The roar of beasts grew louder as they approached, raising a cloud of dust along the way.

More than twenty riders from the Jiang family rode on strange beasts and galloped over. The leader had a powerful aura and was clearly a cultivator from the Four Extremes Secret Realm.

The Jiang family knights suddenly pulled on their reins, surrounding the small restaurant completely, leaving no room for movement.

The leader of the knights, who was at the fourth level of the realm, swept his gaze across the room, first seeing Jiang Yichen and the other two embedded in the wall, and finally landing on Lin Xiu, who was standing with his hands behind his back at the door.

"Dare to harm a member of my Jiang family? Do you know what the consequences will be?" the knight leader shouted sternly.

Lin Xiu stepped out of the restaurant, glanced at the murderous faces in front of him, and remained calm.

"This is the ancient aristocratic family?"

"A bunch of good-for-nothing descendants who only know how to rest on their laurels and live off their past achievements, do they really think they're something special?"

It's one thing to bully outsiders, but the Jiang family even bullies their own family members!

The blessings bestowed by a virtuous person will last for five generations.

Even if Emperor Hengyu has made great contributions in protecting all living beings, so many generations have passed, and he still wants to act arrogantly and domineeringly. He is really dreaming!

These ancient and powerful families... all need to be thoroughly eradicated.
