Lin Xun looked startled, not because he was frightened by Zhao Yunzhi’s threat, but because he realized that Zhao Yunzhi didn’t recognize Zhao Tailai.

Otherwise, would she dare to act so arrogant and domineering?

“Hmph, do you not dare to? Lin Xun, don’t tell me you are afraid.” The corners of Zhao Yunzhi’s lips quirked into a disdainful smile.

She thought that Lin Xun was incredibly fierce and arrogant, but it turned out to be not the case.

Her expression turned more and more smug. The young genius who had caused headaches in the Forbidden City was intimidated by her. It was something to be very proud of.

Her red lips slightly parted in a contemptuous smile as she looked at Lin Xun. “Since you are afraid, kneel and apologize and maybe I will give you…”

PA!

Before she could finish speaking, an invisible palm slapped her fair face hard, sending her staggering and collapsing on her buttocks. She clutched her swollen cheek, screaming in agony.

Her face twisted with disbelief. She never thought that someone would slap her in the face.

It wasn’t Lin Xun who did it, but Zhao Tailai instead.

He shook his head, sighing, “So embarrassing. I really can’t stand it anymore.”

Lin Xun couldn’t help laughing. As an influential figure of the imperial family, Zhao Tailai was understandably uncomfortable to see Zhao Yunzhi behave in such a way.

Everyone else was stupefied, including Lin Zhong and Lin Huaiyuan. Although Zhao Yunzhi was obnoxious, she still had the status of an imperial family member.

She was the reason that they hadn’t taken action against the Auspicious Sun Treasure Pavilion until now.

They never thought that the wealthy-looking middle-aged man who came with Lin Xun would brazenly slap her in the face.

“Who are you? How dare you hit her!” Qin Ziming raged, glowering at Zhao Tailai.

“How dare you slap me! I don’t care who you are! Kill him! Kill him now!” Zhao Yunzhi screamed on the ground.

Under the gazes of everyone, she, a descendant of a prince, had been slapped in the face. It was the greatest embarrassment.

“Me? Kill me?” Zhao Tailai’s lips curled upwards, but there was no emotion in the smile. Instead, it sent a chill down everyone’s spine.

“What...do you want? I’ll tell you now, Prince Yunyong will come in person very soon!” Qin Ziming became very agitated.

The masters dispatched by the Zuo and Qin Clans still hadn’t arrived.

“Prince Yunyong?” Zhao Tailai’s smile became more chilling.

Qin Ziming started to panic. Why is the guy whom Lin Xun brought here more daring and terrifying than he is?

Who is he?

Lin Xun couldn’t help shaking his head. Qin Ziming and Zhao Yunzhi were only a pair of bullies who could take advantage of their status to bully regular people.

“Uncle Zhong, you guys take action now. Kill anyone who dares to stop you. As for other matters, just leave it to me,” he issued an order.

Lin Zhong, Third Old Zhu, Xiaoke and Lin Huaiyuan had long been waiting to act. Following Lin Xun’s order, they simultaneously turned to the inside of the Auspicious Sun Treasure Pavilion, murderous intent spreading outwards from them.

“You dare!” Qin Ziming roared, his expression dramatically changing.

Even Zhao Yunzhi shrieked in panic. She had completely lost her elegance and arrogance as she stood there distraught.

A fierce roar shook the world like a rumble of thunder, “How dare you! Who dares to cause trouble in front of me?!”

Following the roar, a mighty middle-aged man dressed in a wide-sleeved robe and a purple gold crown marched towards them from a distance, hands clasped behind his back.

Prince Yunyong, Zhao Xu!

All the spies who were secretly watching from afar shuddered. They never expected an imperial family member would arrive before the reinforcements of the Zuo and Qin Clans.

He was a fierce, brave and capable character who once commanded the imperial army in the Forbidden City and led soldiers on the battlefield in the frontier.

However, he was notorious for his violent and tyrannical temper. He turned to violence at the slightest disagreement and so was given the nickname Domineering General.

His arrival understandably caused a stir. The spies couldn’t help but gloat at Lin Xun’s crisis. As though they were watching a show, they were curious to see how Lin Xun would resolve the situation.

Lin Zhong and the others were also awed into silence. They had heard of Prince Yunyong Zhao Xu, but they never expected someone like him to come in person. Their situation immediately became difficult and tricky to deal with.

Zhao Yunzhi sprang to her feet in excitement as though her savior had come. “Father, you came at the right time. Those guys are trying to take over our Auspicious Sun Treasure Pavilion. They want to kill whoever dares to stop them. Even I...I have been humiliated by them!”

“Father-in-law, please get justice for us!” Qin Ziming also sobbed.

“You don’t need to say anything. I already understood the situation. The reason I came here is to see what blind bastard dared to come here and cause trouble.” Prince Yunyong, Zhao Xu’s, voice was resounding.

As he was speaking, he arrived in front of the main hall. A fierce murderous rage covered his face.

He was an influential figure in the imperial family, and he wielded tremendous power. Not only was he brave and skilful in battle, but he was also a great cultivator of the Cyclic Derivation Stage.

The fact that his daughter and son-in-law were being bullied in the Forbidden City felt like a slap to his face!

The atmosphere was so austere that even the spies hiding in the shadows couldn’t help but gasp out loud.

The Domineering General lived up to his reputation. He blatantly displayed his domineering bearing as soon as he arrived.

How was Lin Xun going to resolve the situation?

The consequence of angering Zhao Xu was much more serious than slaughtering the people of the Zuo and Qin Clans!

Lin Zhong and the others felt their hearts become a little heavy. They had taken everything into account, but they never thought that Zhao Xu, a mighty prince, would intervene.

“Haha.”

But amid the tense atmosphere, Zhao Tailai chuckled. He studied Zhao Xu ruminatively before he asked sternly, “Did you say…what blind bastard dared to come here and cause trouble?”

Zhao Tailai had his back facing the street, so Zhao Xu didn’t notice him at first.

Zhao Tailai’s laughter ignited the prince’s killing intent and filled him with rage. It was the greatest provocation.

But when he saw Zhao Tailai, he became paralyzed to the spot, pupils rapidly shrinking.

Zhao Yunzhi didn’t have such sharp eyesight. She was already blinded by rage after the slap.

“Father, it was that old man who did it! He also said that I am an embarrassment to the imperial family! He is insulting me!” She couldn’t stand Zhao Tailai acting so arrogant even after her father had come.

However, no matter how she howled, Zhao Xu didn’t make any movement, which made her a little impatient. “Father, you have to kill that old bastard to defend the prestige of the imperial family!”

Qin Ziming seemed to have noticed something as his expression changed, and he urgently stepped forward to dissuade Zhao Yunzhi, but the latter slapped him away and scolded, “Father is here now, what are you afraid of?”

She turned to Lin Xun again. “And you, you are just a rune founder! How dare you come to our Auspicious Sun Treasure Pavilion to cause trouble?! Don’t even think about leaving here alive today!”

Lin Xun sighed. I was wrong, the stupidity of this woman is far beyond the level of the Marquis of Rising Sky and Princess Linghuang.

Zhao Tailai ignored the racket caused by Zhao Yunzhi and asked Prince Yunyong, Zhao Xu, “Is she your daughter?”

Prince Yunyong nodded stiffly. His expression was extremely unusual and filled with nervousness and apprehension. He looked like a soldier facing his commander.

Even the spies in the dark noticed the strangeness.

What happened to the domineering and powerful Zhao Xu?

“Tell her to shut up.” Zhao Tailai seemed to have lost his patience.

“Yes.”

His response struck everyone dumb. The high and mighty Prince Yunyong, a noble figure of the empire, obeyed, and slapped his daughter without any hesitation.

PA!

The clear and crisp slap made everyone twitch with pain, which showed that Zhao Xu’s slap was very strong.

Zhao Yunzhi, who had been yelling with indignation and smugness, looked stupefied as she propelled across the air. She collapsed to the ground with a thud, blood trickling down her nostrils and mouth. Her eyes rolled back to her head, and she lost consciousness.

But before she fainted, she only had one thought in her mind. Father…why would he hit me...did he hit the wrong person…

It seemed ridiculous, but Zhao Yunzhi indeed thought so. She never noticed that the atmosphere had subtly changed even after she fainted.

It became silent and still again.

Lin Zhong and the others were stunned. Qin Ziming was also stunned. The spies hiding in the shadows were also stunned.

What happened?

No one expected such a scene. They all thought they were mistaken.

Prince Yunyong came in a mighty and aggressive manner, but his first attack was aimed at his daughter. No one could believe it.

Even Lin Xun was a little surprised. He had already guessed that Zhao Tailai had an extraordinary identity, but it seemed his identity exceeded his expectations.

The fact that a domineering and arrogant prince bowed his head and obeyed Zhao Tailai’s order without uttering a single word was enough proof of Zhao Tailai’s terrifying identity.

Zhao Tailai furrowed his brows, as though holding himself back. Then, he waved his hand, “You’re dismissed, off you go.”

But Zhao Xu looked relieved. He bowed deeply with a cupped fist salute, hurriedly turned around and stood to the side.

Hiss!

Everyone expelled a gasp of shock, and their gazes completely changed when they looked at Zhao Tailai again.

Sometimes silence said more than words did!
