Chapter 500: The Only Test of a True Dragon
Since now that he was Gotham’s dragon, there were some things that he couldn’t let others easily slander! Insulting him wasn’t a big deal, he never minded that… but if you insult his two sweethearts, then you’re just asking for it!
Actually, Lin Xiao never minded that pork… oh no, Bacon guy. He knew that he became a Baron at a young age and was spoiled by his father, so it was natural to have a temper, so he didn’t mind him. Since Bacon didn’t know his own identity, what was the big deal of him saying a couple of things? If Lin Xiao got worked up by these kinds of people, he would be overworked.

That’s why he didn’t come on hard, but Bacon saw his concessions as weakness and tried to cross the line multiple times which eventually ended up like this.
That smack didn’t just make Bacon’s face red, but also shattered his dreams. At the same time, everyone stared in shock, even the guards forgot their jobs and just stood there not knowing what to do.
It was the first time they’ve seen such an arrogant liar, not only did he not submit, but he also smacked someone in front of everyone. They didn’t know whether to commend him for being brave, or laugh that he actually tricked himself in thinking he was Gotham’s dragon!
He even said something about helping Claire discipline her retainer… aren’t you getting too into it?
“Y-you stinking kid… How dare you hit me!? Bastard, did you know that my dad has never even hit me! Who the hell do you think you are!?”
“Oh, then just treat me as your dad.”
“What did you say? You shameless…”
