Chapter 16: Chapter 16: The Master of Tianji Sect!

"Right, I have something to tell you," Xiao Zheng smiled.

"Brother Xiao, please go ahead, I’m listening," Leng Haitang’s forehead was streaming with cold sweat, her heart questioning why this devil had returned! What did he want with her?

Xiao Zheng, with a smile in his eyes, said, "Don’t be nervous. I just want to tell you that I married your daughter."

"Marriage is a good thing... Married? My daughter?" Leng Haitang’s first reaction was to congratulate, but upon hearing it was his own daughter, his complexion drastically changed.

"Technically, I should call you ’father-in-law, sir’."

"But rest assured, my marriage to your daughter is not as you imagine, you’ll understand in due time," Xiao Zheng highlighted the important part, "Oh yes, Leng Qingxuan is your son, right?"

"Brother Xiao, did that little rascal offend you somewhere? It’s all my fault for failing to discipline him, I’ll make sure he comes to apologize in person!" Leng Haitang’s heart was torn with turmoil.

This atrocious being, missing for so many years, had become his son-in-law...

"Not at all, it’s normal for kids to be mischievous. Oh, I just wanted to let you know that I ’educated’ him a bit last night, you don’t have an issue with that, do you?" Xiao Zheng spoke earnestly.

Leng Haitang shivered all over, his sweat pouring down, quickly agreeing, "That’s great, that little rascal is idle all day; you, as his uncle, ought to educate him."

His uncle?

Nani?

Xiao Zheng felt faint, Leng Qingxuan was actually older than him, plus he had married his sister, and now Leng Haitang was making him out to be his uncle?

The family relationships sure were moving fast.

"Brother Xiao, don’t worry, I’ll definitely teach him a good lesson for you!" Leng Haitang assured.

Xiao Zheng smiled, "Just scold him a bit, don’t use violence and leave him haunted."

"Yes, yes, Brother Xiao, you’re absolutely right," Leng Haitang nodded outwardly, but the corner of his mouth twitched, thinking how could you talk of violence? Back in the day, you were the most violent one in Zhonghai City!

"Alright, Old Leng, we’ll talk later, I’ve got some business to handle." With that, Xiao Zheng hung up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Leng Haitang wanted to ask if they could have a meal together, but the call had already ended.

Immediately, Leng Haitang’s smiling face grew somber.

Just then, a beautiful assistant approached quietly, expressing concern, "Chairman, you don’t look well, are you sick?"

"Hmph, sick? It’s worse than being sick!" Leng Haitang huffed coldly, ordered sternly, "Call Leng Qingxuan and tell him to come here immediately!"

Leng Haitang was both angry and resentful. Of all people to offend, it had to be that monstrosity. It was like courting death.

Soon, Leng Qingxuan arrived.

Seeing his father, Leng Qingxuan immediately approached with a long face, lamented, "Father, you must stand up for me, your daughter Leng Ruobing, she’s getting out of hand, not respecting you at all. She married some loser behind your back, and now she’s completely lawless, even ganging up with that loser to beat me!

Beating me is one thing; they are attacking the face of the Leng Family!"

The more Leng Qingxuan spoke, the more agitated he became, his hatred for Xiao Zheng bone-deep.

And as Leng Haitang listened, he erupted with fury, his eyes nearly shooting fire!

He exploded at Leng Qingxuan, "Bastard!"

Leng Qingxuan thought his father was angry for him and chimed in, "Right, Leng Ruobing is really such a bastard!"

Smack!

Leng Haitang suddenly turned around and slapped him, sending Leng Qingxuan reeling with a bleeding mouth corner, utterly stunned!

"Father, you... you hit me?" Leng Qingxuan never expected his father to hit him.

"You big idiot! Do you have any idea who you’ve offended?" Fury like never before surged in Leng Haitang, treasuring his only son as his own life.

Even Leng Qingxuan, all grown up, was hit for the first time.

"Father, what did I do wrong to deserve being hit by you?"

"Hit you? I want to kick you, too!"

As he spoke, Leng Haitang lifted his foot and kicked Leng Qingxuan in the chest, shaking with anger, "He went easy on you! If it weren’t for my sake, you’d already be a corpse!"

Leng Qingxuan: "..."

Leng Qingxuan wanted to cry. What the hell was going on?

"Who else to offend but that devil? Have you forgotten how your second uncle died?"

"My second uncle’s death... him? The Master of Tianji Sect, Xiao Zheng? Father, you’re saying it was the Sect Leader of Tianji Sect who hit me?" Leng Qingxuan finally caught on.

Six years ago, one of Leng Haitang’s half-brothers, haughty and skilled in martial arts, conquered almost every martial arts school in Zhonghai City. With extraordinary martial prowess, connections, tactics, and intelligence, his arrogance eventually led to his demise at the hands of a diabolical youth!

And that diabolical youth was the then-famed Master of Tianji Sect, Xiao Zheng!

Six years later, the once astounding young monarch had returned. Even without the remarkable flair of six years prior, the name of that devil was something no one dared to forget to this day!

"Good that you know. You’re lucky this time; otherwise, you’d be dead!" Leng Haitang still felt chills thinking back on the memory of six years ago.

Six years prior, the rise of the Tianji Sect, with the remarkable debut of a devilish youth, had the entire Zhonghai City trembling in submission!

"Hmph, the Tianji Sect crumbled five years ago, even if he truly is the Sect Leader, what of it? That’s all in the past, Zhonghai City is free from Tianji Sect now!"

Leng Qingxuan scoffed, unconvinced in his heart.

"The might of Tianji Sect is in the past, now it’s an era dominated by money and power. With enough wealth, to hell with whatever sect leader—Father, you might fear him, but I certainly don’t!"

"You brat, do you think he’s just a pretty face?" Leng Haitang had the impulse to kick him to death.

Leng Qingxuan, wiping blood from his mouth, looking unsettled yet furious, said, "No matter how tough he is, he’s just one person. I refuse to believe I can’t bring him down!"

Having said that, he swept away, leaving the beach. Once out of sight, Leng Qingxuan’s gaze darkened, swallowing his pride hard.

Glaring back towards the beach, he muttered coldly, "Xiao Zheng, others may fear you, but I don’t! Just wait—this vendetta will be settled, it’s the gentleman’s way!"
