Jun Changxiao made his move.
Using domineering strength, he directly pressed Lu Tingyi to the ground.
This kind of cultivation where after just two sentences of dialogue he directly started fighting really made one suspect another side quest had appeared.
But no.
Jun Changxiao beating up Lu Tingyi wasn’t because of verbal humiliation, but more because of the other party’s despicable insider operation methods relying on his Young City Lord status.
Using cheating methods to achieve goals was something Dog Sheng often did. Especially when encountering big trouble, he directly activated cheats. But on competitive stages like martial platforms, he’d always been upright and never played tricks.
This could be seen from Li Qingyang, Xiao Zueji and others participating in various competitions—all victories relied on genuine strength, never going through back doors or playing dirty.
True legends are built through fighting!
Lu Tingyi was different. Not only did he bribe the judges, but he also participated in the examination at the advanced age of seventeen!
Although the martial hall had no explicit age restrictions, everyone knew that academy students participating in examinations were usually around twelve or thirteen years old.
In other words.
This Linyan City Young City Lord not only cheated but also used his size to bully the small.
So Jun Changxiao couldn’t hold back. He directly pressed him to the ground and rubbed him, venting anger on behalf of his disciple Sun Mucheng.
“Is it really like this?” The system asked.
Whether it was or wasn’t didn’t matter. What mattered was that Dog Sheng, in front of so many people, actually pressed down Linyan City’s Young City Lord—that problem became extremely serious.
“Something big happened!”
“City Lord Lu only has this one precious son. He holds him in his palm afraid he’ll melt. This guy beat him up and definitely can’t hope to leave the city alive!”
“He’s got guts!”
The spectating martial artists didn’t mind the commotion and whispered among themselves.
Hua Meigui also realized this young master’s identity from their conversation and hurriedly transmitted: “You said to keep low profile, so why did you attack!”
Lu Tingyi’s household servants finally came to their senses and erupted with cultivation to rush over. But before getting close, they were repelled by powerful aura, and when they awkwardly fell to the ground, they all exclaimed in shock: “Core Rotation Realm!”
The hot-tempered Jun Changxiao didn’t operate the Hidden Cultivation Technique. His First Revolution Core Rotation Realm aura fully opened.
When showing off, if there were no spectators, that would definitely be a failure. Fortunately, quite a few passersby had gathered on the street. After learning Dog Sheng’s realm, they all widened their eyes in perfect cooperation.
A weak-looking young man actually possessed this kind of realm—truly unexpected. No wonder he dared to publicly beat up Lu Tingyi!
However.
That was the Young City Lord, an absolute public figure. After beating him up, the result would definitely be—you’re finished!
“Bang!”
Jun Changxiao didn’t care about the other party’s identity. He stood up and fiercely kicked. Lu Tingyi’s face, worth at least five thousand, really couldn’t withstand his foot and immediately bled profusely, his head dizzy and eyes dazed.
The servants who’d been shocked away naturally wouldn’t just watch stupidly. What they could do now was… quickly call for reinforcements!
……
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
A few minutes later, five Core Rotation Realm experts arrived at extreme speed from different directions.
Although Linyan City was quite ordinary in the Upper Realm, status-wise couldn’t compare to a Profound-grade sect, it still had Core Rotation Realm experts stationed there, just mostly at First Revolution strength.
“Brat, cease your arrogance!”
A red-haired elder arrived at the scene first. Seeing the Young City Lord beaten beyond recognition, he gathered true energy in his palm and struck over.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
Strong winds swept and disturbed the surroundings.
Perceptive passersby and martial artists had long since retreated, peacefully being qualified melon-eating masses, watching the Core Rotation Realm battle about to unfold!
They weren’t disappointed!
Feeling power pressing down, Jun Changxiao suddenly turned and waved his right hand. In the void, true energy spread madly, rapidly gathering into a substantial palm print.
The words ‘Heaven-Crossing Palm Print’ appeared on screen in large letters with a bang bang sound.
“Not good!”
The red-haired elder’s expression suddenly changed.
“Boom!”
The Heaven-Crossing Palm Print with seemingly unimpressive special effects and weak power directly collided with the pressing force, not only producing an ear-splitting explosive sound but also shaking surrounding buildings with slight tremors.
“Swish! Swish!”
Just then, the other four Core Rotation Realm experts charged from the side. They feigned attack but actually intended to snatch the Young City Lord away.
Jun Changxiao naturally understood their intention. Without a word, he grabbed Lu Tingyi, then used him as a shield, holding him in front and shouting loudly: “Come over here!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Four cold, powerful true energy forces bombarded surrounding buildings, causing buildings to collapse on a large scale.
Standing in the dust, Jun Changxiao and Hua Meigui behind him were safe and sound. After all, with the hostage Lu Tingyi in hand, the other side definitely wouldn’t dare directly attack.
“Tap!”
“Tap!”
Linyan City’s five Core Rotation Realm experts collectively landed. The leading red-haired elder angrily said: “Brat, if you don’t want to die, quickly release the Young City Lord!”
“Molesting my woman on the street—I haven’t killed him already shows great mercy.” Jun Changxiao said coldly.
Don’t look at Lu Tingyi putting on a warm and refined appearance, but from the indescribable gleam that flashed in his eyes when appearing, Dog Sheng had already guessed what kind of thing he was.
Of course.
Jun Changxiao saying those words was just finding an excuse.
Hua Meigui hadn’t thought that much. Hearing the words ‘my woman,’ her heart immediately felt as sweet as if coated with honey.
Daring to be enemies with an entire city for my sake—what more could I be unsatisfied with?
Thinking this, she stepped forward, pressing close behind Jun Changxiao, flicking the hair at her forehead: “Husband, let’s fight side by side!”
“……”
The system said speechlessly: “You agreed to keep low profile together, how did it become causing trouble together!”
“Step aside.”
Jun Changxiao looked at the red-haired elder and others, saying: “I’m going to fight five!”
This line was very passionate, but… bro, could you first put down the hostage Lu Tingyi? Using him as a shield while holding him in front like this—have you no shame?
“Swish!”
Dog Sheng took an arrow step forward, waving flamboyantly, clearly not only using him as a shield but also as a weapon.
In slow motion, one could clearly see Lu Tingyi under rapid rotation sometimes rolling his eyes in fainting, sometimes regaining consciousness to continue fainting, going back and forth—it felt like experiencing amusement park high-altitude rides.
“Come on!”
“Come over!”
“Swish! Swish! Swish!”
Jun Changxiao madly waved the Young City Lord, accompanied by intermittent strange cries, simply like a mental patient!
Because the other side held a hostage, making them cautious about acting rashly, the five Core Rotation Realm experts were forced to retreat step by step.
“Friend!”
Just then, a brocade-robed middle-aged man who appeared to be forty or fifty years old led a group of martial artists rushing over. Seeing Lu Tingyi being swung around like a rope, his heart ached as he hurriedly spoke: “Let’s talk this through!”
“It’s the City Lord!”
The passersby watching from afar whispered.
Jun Changxiao stopped, then stood Lu Tingyi—pale-faced and foaming at the mouth—in front of him, saying: “You’re his old man?”
“Correct, correct!”
City Lord Lu was genuinely worried his son would be harmed and hurriedly cupped his fists: “Whatever offense my unworthy son committed, Lu will apologize on his behalf!”
Never hit a smiling face. The other party’s words had reached this point, so Jun Changxiao naturally gave face: “My wife and I came to Linyan City this time simply to do some small business. Your son saw beauty and developed intentions, coming forward to molest. What do you think should be done about this?”
“I… I didn’t…”
Lu Tingyi happened to regain consciousness and spoke weakly.
Although he was a dandy, he still couldn’t do things like street molestation. After all, he had his Young City Lord status. But since he dared to block the way, he naturally had thoughts—just that he hadn’t followed through with his usual steps and routine.
Sigh.
Who told this fellow to encounter the never-cause-trouble, never-high-profile Jun Dog Sheng?
“Friend!”
City Lord Lu cupped his fists: “As long as you release my son, whatever you say goes!”
“City Lord Lu’s deep love for his son is truly moving.” After brief consideration, Jun Changxiao said: “How about this—I’ve planted some medicinal materials to sell. Now I’ve been delayed by your son, so you can buy them all.”
“No problem!”
“The price might be a bit expensive.”
“No problem!”
In City Lord Lu’s eyes, no matter how expensive, nothing was more precious than his treasured son. He’d even used his authority to pull strings to get him into the martial hall.
“Of course, I won’t deliberately extort City Lord Lu either.” Jun Changxiao said: “You can first invite the city’s medicinal materials experts to appraise the quality, then give appropriate prices.”
“Good, I’ll immediately send people to find experts!”
Seeing City Lord Lu obeying his every word, Jun Changxiao glanced at the foaming-at-the-mouth Lu Tingyi and shook his head inwardly: “It’s precisely because of excessive daily indulgence that such a dandy was raised. If I have children in the future, I’ll definitely…”
“Please retract that impractical, pie-in-the-sky thinking.” The system promptly interrupted his thoughts and sharply mocked: “Because your character setting is chief eunuch, unless through adoption.”
