Chapter 2310: Good Fight
Zhao Huiying's cultivation was truly too powerful; her Killing Intent permeated the air, and the surrounding atmosphere seemed to drop by dozens of degrees in an instant.
Everyone's hair stood on end, and an boundless fear arose in their hearts.
"It's over, this Young man is completely finished, he's dead for sure!"
This was the common sentiment of everyone present.
Zhao Lin was overjoyed; his grand-uncle was still as dominant as ever, and it seemed his revenge was at hand.
He pointed in Ye Bufan's direction: "Grand-uncle, it's this kid."
At this moment, Zhao Huiying also walked closer, parted the crowd, and saw Ye Bufan sitting there, leisurely drinking tea, and his expression immediately changed.
"It's… it's Ye Yixian!"
He was truly taken by surprise; the Imperial City was so vast, with such a large flow of people coming and going, how did his good-for-nothing nephew manage to provoke him?
Ye Bufan smiled slightly: "Grand Manager, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."
Zhao Lin hadn't yet figured out what was going on, but he gritted his teeth again and shouted: "Grand-uncle, it was this kid who hit us."
Ye Bufan didn't deny it, chuckling: "That's right, I hit you."
"Oh my goodness, is this guy an idiot? He can still smile at a time like this…"
"Ignorance is bliss! This guy is an outsider, he doesn't even know how powerful the Grand Manager is…"
"He even dares to admit it, I think this guy is dead for sure…"
Everyone whispered among themselves, discussing animatedly, and their gazes towards Ye Bufan were full of schadenfreude.
In their opinion, it was likely that this guy would be slapped to death by the Grand Manager next.
But what they never expected was that Zhao Huiying, who had just been full of Killing Intent, suddenly changed his expression, broke into a brilliant smile, and his Killing Intent vanished without a trace.
Then, he softly uttered three words: "Well hit, this good-for-nothing should be hit!"
"Uh…"
The eyeballs of the surrounding people shattered to the ground with a crash; this was too unexpected for everyone, no one had imagined such a result.
Wasn't the Grand Manager just full of Killing Intent? Wasn't he furious? Wasn't he going to avenge his nephew?
In the blink of an eye, it turned into "Well hit"; what the hell was this?
The Young Master, who had been about to show off, immediately deflated like a punctured ball upon hearing this, and shrank back.
Zhao Lin had a look of disbelief; was this still the grand-uncle who used to spoil him rotten?
Why wasn't he avenging him, and instead started cheering?
"Grand-uncle, are you mistaken…?"
He wanted to say something more, but before he could finish, Zhao Huiying slapped him across the Face.
"You good-for-nothing, shut up!"
He slapped Zhao Lin to the ground, then turned back and smiled: "Divine Doctor Ye, my good-for-nothing nephew, you can hit him however you want, even if you beat him to death, this old man won't bat an eye."
Zhao Lin had just gotten up from the ground, but upon hearing these words, he was so scared that he plopped back down.
"Grand-uncle, I am your nephew, you can't do this, I am the only heir of the Zhao Family, if you do this, I won't live!"
He used his usual trump card; no matter how much trouble he caused, once he threatened to die, his Family would immediately step forward to settle things for him.
After all, people's thinking was still very conservative at the time; the Zhao Family, by their generation, only had him as the sole heir.
Zhao Huiying was even more so; the less sons he had, the more he cared about the continuation of the Zhao Family lineage, and he didn't want to become a sinner of the Zhao Family.
But what he never expected was that his trump card failed this time.
"If you want to die, then go die!"
Zhao Huiying didn't hesitate at all, and slapped him again with a backhand.
"You good-for-nothing, what else can you do all day besides carousing and causing trouble? What's the use of keeping you?"
"I…"
Zhao Lin was completely stunned by the beating, not understanding what was happening.
Why was his grand-uncle's mood changing faster than flipping a book today? He had never touched a single finger of his since childhood, but today he was hitting him so hard.
He wasn't an idiot either; he knew the problem lay with this Young man in front of him, but who exactly was this? How could he make the Grand Manager of the Imperial Family so fearful?
The others were also bewildered, exchanging confused glances.
The Grand Manager came but didn't attack the other party; instead, he started hitting his own nephew.
Could it be because Zhao Lin was in the wrong first? But how was that possible? When did the Zhao Family become so reasonable?
Zhao Huiying turned back again, with an apologetic look: "Ye Yixian, I'm sorry, my Family is unfortunate to have such a rebellious son, you must be laughing at me!"
After speaking, he waved his hand and grabbed Zhao Lin: "Kneel down for me and apologize to Ye Yixian."
"I…"
Zhao Lin was full of resistance, but when his grand-uncle got angry, he didn't dare to disobey, and besides, his previous trump card had failed.
Helplessly, he could only kneel on the ground: "I'm sorry, it was my fault!"
"Alright, it's all a matter between juniors, I won't hold it against you."
Since Zhao Huiying was giving him so much Face, Ye Bufan couldn't say anything more, and simply waved his hand, indicating that he would no longer pursue the matter.
Zhao Lin, however, was full of frustration; in the past, he was the one who stepped on others, but today he was completely trampled upon.
The dignified Da Shao of the Zhao Family had just knelt for a long time, and now he had become someone else's junior.
But he had no choice; a profligate like him was nothing without the Family's support.
The others watched from afar, still not understanding the situation, not knowing who this Young man was, or where this Medical Immortal came from.
"Ye Yixian is truly magnanimous."
Zhao Huiying smiled and cupped his hands, then asked, "May I know how this little beast offended the Medical Immortal?"
If it were anyone else, he would never give so much Face, but now his younger brother's eyes still depended on the other party, so the matter had to be handled to Perfection and the problem completely resolved.
"These two guys conspired to swindle my elder brother's money…"
Jiang Fangzhou knew that it wasn't convenient for Ye Bufan to talk about such things, so he stepped forward and recounted the entire incident from beginning to end, finally saying, "They tried to extort one hundred seventy thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones from my elder brother with three broken birds and a Restriction."
Zhao Huiying's expression instantly turned cold, and he turned back and asked, "Is that so?"
Seeing his grand-uncle's chilling gaze, Zhao Lin immediately cowered and quickly pointed at the Young Master next to him, saying, "He told me to do it like this, he said it would make a lot of money."
"I…"
The Young Master never dreamed that the current situation would occur; he opened his mouth to explain.
But before he could speak, Zhao Huiying's hand flashed with a cold light, and then his head flew high into the air.
The body fell to the ground with a thud, and a gush of hot blood splattered on the spot.
Everyone present felt their scalps tingle; the Grand Manager was truly ruthless when he took action.
Zhao Lin was even more terrified, trembling; in all these years, it was the first time he had seen his grand-uncle get angry at his own people.
Zhao Huiying acted as if he had done a trivial matter, reaching out and taking off the Storage Ring, then presenting it to Ye Bufan with both hands.
"Divine Doctor Ye, this little beast has offended you greatly, please accept this as a small compensation!"
