Divine Doctor Dragon Master

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingyi's face turned even more livid.

She gritted her teeth in frustration, yet was powerless to do anything about it!

Although she was from the Heavenly Temple, the overt and covert power struggles among the great forces were extremely dangerous. If the Martial Arts Department really decided to take action, she might not die, but her prospects would be utterly ruined.

As powerful as the Luo Family and the Heavenly Temple were, the Martial Arts Department was a force not to be underestimated!

Moreover, Ye Wujie's secret attempt to assassinate Ye Longchen had caused the Jinling Martial Arts Department to lose a major general. They were likely harboring a simmering rage, but lacking evidence to prove that it was Ye Wujie's doing, they had to swallow their anger for the time being.

However, if she publicly crippled Qin Jiang, that matter would not be so easily forgotten.

"Even if I can't do much to you, today, I still have to teach you a lesson! A minor scuffle, the Martial Arts Department, won't take it to heart!"

With that, she struck out with her palm!

Qin Jiang took a deep breath, channeled his True Qi to its full extent, and countered with a palm strike of his own.

"Boom——"

The tea table between them instantly shattered.

The scene was a complete mess.

And those arrogant young masters who had been so haughty and insolent just a moment ago were all swept away by the explosive force, landing haphazardly on the floor, in a state of utter disarray.

"Hahaha!"

Suddenly, a hearty laugh rang out, and Old Ghost Xu appeared in the midst like a flash of lightning, "Miss Luo, please grant me this favor and refrain from causing a scene here."

"Old Ghost Xu?!" Luo Qingyi's expression darkened even further upon seeing the newcomer, "You dare to stop me?"

Old Ghost Xu spoke indifferently, "Mr. Qin is my honored guest! If Miss Luo insists on taking action, then I too must intervene today!"

Luo Qingyi said with an icy voice, "Old Ghost Xu! Do you realize the consequences of your actions? Behind me stand the Luo Family, as well as the Heavenly Temple. You dare to be so brazen against me, a mere local tyrant?"

Old Ghost Xu declared calmly, "Miss Luo, without rules, there can be no square or circle. Here at the Tiannan Clubhouse, I, Old Ghost Xu, am the one who sets the rules!"

Luo Qingyi clenched her fists tightly, feeling immense humiliation. Qin Jiang had caused her to lose all face. To her surprise, Old Ghost Xu even decided to meddle in her business!

Although she was formidable among her peers, she was still somewhat inferior to the long-established Old Ghost Xu. Today, she had no choice but to forcibly swallow her pride!

"Mr. Xu, if you do this, I'm afraid it may not be appropriate, right?"

A light chuckle reached everyone's ears, and under the watchful gaze of numerous onlookers, a young man surrounded by crowd strolled over like a noble prince!

His every gesture exuded a charisma that was extraordinary.

Accompanying him was Chu Junlin!

Next to him, even Chu Junlin, hailed as a favored son of heaven, seemed to lose his shine.

Old Ghost Xu's face was ashen. He whispered to Qin Jiang, "That is Ye Wujie."

"Ye Wujie!" Qin Jiang's eyes narrowed with intensity.

He had certainly heard the name, and it had been mentioned by Ye Longchen.

The distinguished young master of the Capital City's Ye Family.

A person of exalted status!

Moreover, Ye Longchen's disappearance on his way to Jinling and this individual, Ye Wujie, were likely connected. Ye Wujie's strength was probably even greater than Ye Longchen's!

"Qin Jiang, I've long admired your reputation!" Ye Wujie chuckled, "Recently, you've become quite the celebrity in Jiangnan."

"Is that so?" Qin Jiang replied indifferently, "I too know I am quite famous, and I have also heard of Mr. Ye, but not for any good reputation." Find more to read at empire

"By the way, this must be Mr. Chu, right?" Qin Jiang glanced at Chu Junlin and noticed the latter glaring at him darkly. "You and your brother look quite alike, both deserving to die."

Upon hearing Qin Jiang mention his brother, the chill in Chu Junlin's eyes deepened.

"Is that so?" he said coldly. "My brother said he misses his old friend and asked me to send you to meet him if I get the chance!"
