und one after another."I have seen the Dragon King."They had sworn an oath when receiving the inheritance power and offered up their soul blood. Though the form differed, it was functionally identical...The top floor of the restaurant was originally off-limits to guests, so it was very quiet. Tian Sheng's sudden arrival interrupted Gao Jiajun's confession plan, which made him very unhappy.

He turned his head and looked at these people, saying: "Who are you What do you want"

As a prominent Hong Kong jewelry tycoon, wherever he went, he was always treated as a VIP and naturally wouldn't put these people in his eyes.

Tian Sheng saw at a glance the flute in his hand and shouted, "Ye, you dare to use my flute to give someone else!"

He waved his hand at the bodyguard behind him: "Go, get my flute back."

He wasn't particularly close to Gao Jiajun to begin with, and now that Gao Jiajun was dressed in ordinary clothes, he looked like an average middle-aged man, not at all like the powerful Hong Kong tycoon he once was.

Seeing the sudden arrival of these people, Ye Bufan's heart moved, and he had a new idea.

"Tian Sheng, don't go too far. I'm telling you, there are some people you can't afford to offend."

"You think I can't afford to offend What a joke! In Jiangnan City, who could possibly be beyond my reach"

Tian Sheng again commanded his bodyguard, "Grab the flute back and give this old geezer a good thrashing!"

He felt he had complete control of the situation today, so he wasn't in a hurry to attack Ye Bufan. He decided to teach this old geezer a lesson first.

Seeing these people rushing towards him, Gao Jiajun immediately flew into a rage: "I'll see who dares!"

He used to be a bodyguard and had some skills, so he was going to fight these people.

And just then, a voice rang in his ear: "The plan has changed. This ruse needs to be more convincing. Let them attack without resistance, all that matters is keeping the flute safe."

Hearing Ye Bufan's instructions, Gao Jiajun immediately gave up resistance, holding his head in one hand and protecting the jade flute tightly against his chest with the other.

As soon as he reacted, the bodyguards rushed over and punched and kicked Gao Jiajun.

Two bodyguards rushed over to try and grab the jade flute, but he wouldn't let go no matter what. In the end, he was beaten to the ground.

Seeing that the old man was so stubborn, Tian Sheng called out again: "Hit him, hit him hard, until he lets go!"

Having finished, he looked at Ye Bufan with a smug expression. In his opinion, Ye Bufan would definitely step in to stop it.

But to his surprise, Ye Bufan just stood there, watching quietly, a hint of a smile playing on his lips, showing no intention of stopping.

Seeing Gao Jiajun being beaten by these people, Xia Zihang and Gao Dajian's expressions changed.

Especially Gao Daqiang, he's his biological father after all. He can't just stand there and watch him being beaten, but his mother didn't say anything, so he didn't dare to step forward.

Xia Zihan shouted, "Who are you What right do you have to hit people Stop it at once!"

Tian Sheng had a sneer on his lips, arrogantly shouting: "I'll hit whoever I want, why do I need a reason"

He yelled to his bodyguard, "Quickly grab the flute and don't break it!"

Gao Jiajun lay on the ground, desperately protecting his flute. He shouted, "This was a gift I gave to my wife! I would rather die than give it to you!"

Tien Sheng, upon hearing this, flew into a rage and shouted, "That old scoundrel dares to be so stubborn with me! Beat him up, beat him up good!"

Those bodyguards immediately increased their strength, punching and kicking with all their might.

Ye Bufan saw that the fire was almost ready, and secretly transmitted his voice again: "Mr. Gao, it's time to spit blood!"

Upon receiving the signal, Gao Jiajun secretly shoved a blood pack into his mouth. As a bodyguard kicked him in the back, he let out a scream and spat a mouthful of blood onto the flute in his hand.

Then, blood gushing from his mouth, he cried out: “This is a gift I gave to my wife. Even if you kill me, I won't give it to you.”

Ye Bufan smiled faintly. This old man was quite good at adding drama to himself.

Seeing Gao Jiajun beaten until he was spitting blood, Xia Zihan could no longer bear it and rushed forward, shouting: "You guys stop immediately!"

Seeing his mother take action, Gao Dagang had no further hesitation. He stepped forward and punched the leader of the bodyguards, sending him flying. Then, with three punches and two kicks, he brought all of them crashing to the ground.

Xia Zihan stepped forward and helped Gao Jiajun up, saying nervously, "Jiajun, are you alright"

"I'm fine, it's just a shame I got your flute dirty."

Gao Jiajun smiled faintly, revealing his teeth covered in blood.

Then, he reached out and wiped the flute with his hand, as if trying to clean off the bloodstains on it. But the more he wiped, the worse it got, staining most of the flute red.

Xia Zihan, unaware that the blood was from inside a blood bag, choked back tears and said, “Gao Jiajun, how could you be so foolish You just had to give them a broken flute”

"No, this is the gift I promised you. I can't go back on my word, not even if it means death."

Gao Jiajun leaned into Xia Zihan's embrace as he spoke, his body softening.

Ye Bufan thought to himself, This old man's acting would be a shame not to win an Oscar.

Seeing his men knocked to the ground, Tian Sheng's expression changed, "No wonder they said I couldn't afford to offend them, it turns out this big guy is a master."

"But you think that's enough to scare me Please. Far from it!"

He shouted to the back, "Vulture, it's your turn."

The man they call Vulture is a middle-aged fellow in his forties or fifties. He’s tall and thin with a completely bald head except for a few strands of hair on the sides near his ears. His eyes are fierce and menacing, giving him a truly intimidating appearance.

This guy is known for being ruthless and brutal, leaving no bones behind when he gets his hands dirty. That's why the people in the Jianghu call him "Vulture".

"Young Master, rest assured, I'll crush all the bones of this big guy right away!"

The vulture, after finishing his words, strode towards Gao Daqiang. He didn't pay any attention to the towering figure before him, thinking that his strength was merely due to his physical prowess.

"Giant, go die!"

After he finished speaking, he extended his thin, claw-like hand and reached towards the strong shoulder bones of the man's collarbone.

This time, it was quick and ruthless. In the blink of an eye, it had grabbed Gao Dagang's shoulders.

The vulture's lips curled into a smirk. After all, he was just a useless weakling with brute strength but no real power. He was completely incapable of resisting in front of him.

With a forceful grip on his hand, I wanted to break Gao Dagang's collarbone and cripple him.

To his surprise, his right hand felt as if it had gripped a wall of copper and iron. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't budge it an inch.

He was just at the beginning of the Xuan rank, while Gao Daqiang was a real master of the Great Perfection of the Xuan rank. He practiced body refining techniques, his body was so strong that it was harder than steel, where could he possibly shake him

“You old geezer, you’re nowhere near good enough!”

Gao Daqiang said something, with a wave of his hand, he grasped the vulture's hand in his palm. Then, the sound of bone cracking came one after another, and a hand was actually broken by force.

"Ah!"

The vulture let out a heart-wrenching scream, the other hand shooting out like lightning to clamp onto Gao Dagang's throat.

The result was still the same, Gao Daqiang dodged nothing, but his cultivation level could not cause any harm at all.

But then he was grabbed by the left hand, and there came a sound of cracking bones.

"Ah!"

As the saying goes, ten fingers are connected by the heart. The entire bone structure was crushed, the vulture felt a searing pain deep in his marrow, and he couldn't even care about the face of a master anymore. He screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

With just one encounter, the tall and strong man disabled the Vulture's two hands, then kicked him in the abdomen, sending him flying away.at us; she couldn’t possibly be an orphan.”"This..."Ye Bufan felt that his brain was obviously not enough, and he didn't know which of the two little girls was telling the truth and which was telling...
