The Master and His Wealthy Fiancée

Chen Dong smiled. "What else is there to do? Relax and eat. She alone doesn't represent the entire Cai Family. Besides, we're here."

Meng Xuejing could only eat, fidgeting anxiously. If Team Leader Cai really did want revenge, she had no better way to deal with it.

All thirty-three dishes had been served, but Chen Dong and the others had only taken a couple of bites. Many of the dishes were still untouched when the private room's door was violently kicked open.

Twenty burly men barged in. Every single one of them was a trained fighter, and each possessed Inner Strength cultivation.

In the past, such a display would have been impossible for anyone but a major, wealthy clan. The resurgence of Spiritual Qi had imperceptibly raised the overall Martial Dao Realm of the modern world.

Sister Cai walked back in, accompanied by a young man in a suit. The male model from before was nowhere to be seen.

Sister Cai pointed at Chen Dong and said venomously, "He's the one who hit me!"

The young man scanned the room and said arrogantly, "You dare hit my cousin? You have a death wish. Get them!"

The twenty men received their orders and instantly charged forward.

Chen Dong picked up a piece of soft-fried tenderloin with his chopsticks and said, "Xiaoli, I'll leave this to you. Don't kill anyone." Then, he leisurely went back to eating.

Li Zhixuan put down his chopsticks. "What a hassle."

He slapped the table, splashing two drops of liquor from a cup. With a point of his finger, he executed a Sword Technique. The drops of liquor instantly transformed into the shape of swords, then split from two into four, and from four into twenty. The twenty small, liquid swords instantly stabbed the twenty men.

None of the twenty men even made it to the table. They didn't even have time to cry out in pain before they all collapsed in an instant.

Chen Dong shook his head slightly. 'This Xiaoli was a bit heavy-handed. Although the twenty men aren't in mortal danger, their Sword Qi injuries have crippled their Inner Strength. From now on, they'll never be able to touch the Martial Dao again. Oh well. People in their line of work should have expected this day would come.'

'Still, this is for the best,' he thought. 'This should teach the Cai Family who not to provoke. Now we should be able to eat our meal in peace.'

But Chen Dong had clearly underestimated the young man. Far from being afraid, he roared in fury, "Where did you two punks come from, daring to cause trouble in Qianzhou and harm people from my Cai Family! You think you can act with impunity just because you have a little bit of power? Just you wait!"

With that, he pulled out his phone and started making a call right in front of Chen Dong and the others.

Sister Cai had already been terrified when the twenty men were knocked out in an instant, but the young man was still shouting, "Cousin, don't be afraid! This isn't over for these three. They provoked my Cai Family in Qianzhou, so I'll make sure they're carried out of here…"

As soon as the call connected, the young man said angrily, "Tributor Lin, someone's here injuring my Cai Family disciples… at Huayao Restaurant, in a private room… Yes, yes, bring more people! Hurry!"

Chen Dong was speechless. 'To think we could run into so much trouble just by trying to have a meal. Is this also a problem with my luck? Fine. Let's see how many people the Cai Family can bring today!'

Meng Xuejing was trembling with fear. 'Is this the world of Martial Artists? No matter how many movies or TV shows you've seen, you can't help but be terrified when you experience it for real. And now we've really provoked the Cai Family, the strongest power in Qianzhou. Even if we get out of this, what are we supposed to do in the future?'

Chen Dong said softly, "Don't be afraid. Just eat."

Meng Xuejing could only nod numbly.

In less than five minutes, two white-bearded old men led a group of people into the private room. Both were dressed in blue Tang suits. One leaned on a Purple Gold Walking Stick, while the other wore a pair of Dark Gold Gloves.

The young man in the suit was overjoyed at the sight. Not only had Tributor Lin come, but Tributor Guo was here as well. No matter how skilled these two punks were, victory was now assured.

The two elders first inspected the injuries of the men on the floor. Their brows furrowed instantly, and killing intent flared in their eyes.

Elder Lin, the one with the Purple Gold Walking Stick, took a step forward. "You two juniors are so ruthless with your methods, relying on a bit of martial skill. Aren't you afraid of bringing disaster upon your families?"

He was probing to find out what faction Chen Dong and his companion belonged to.

Chen Dong replied casually, "Not afraid. And I'd advise your Cai Family to stop right here, before I get angry. Take your people and get out, and we'll call it even."

Elder Guo, wearing the Dark Gold Gloves, snorted coldly. "What a joke! You've injured so many of our people and you expect us to back down? The audacity!"

Seeing this, the young man in the suit also roared, "With these two seniors here, you're still calmly eating? You're clearly looking down on my Cai Family and these two seniors!"

Chen Dong chuckled softly. "I really don't see any reason to take you seriously."

Elder Guo's eyes turned cold. "Then let me test what you're made of!" As soon as he spoke, True Qi condensed around his body, gathering in his fists.

Chen Dong called out in a low voice, "Xiaoli~!"

Li Zhixuan impatiently put down his chopsticks again. "You want me to deal with a Cultivator of such a shallow cultivation level?"

Elder Guo roared, "Such shameless boasting!"

Li Zhixuan frowned. "Shameless boasting? Don't say I'm bullying you, but if you can even make me stand up from my seat, I'll consider it your win."

The nearby Elder Lin, with his Purple Gold Walking Stick, laughed. "You're overestimating yourself and are unbelievably arrogant! Elder Guo is at the Outer Manifestation level. With one punch, forget making you stand up—he'll make it so you can never stand up again!"

The young man in the suit also had a look of utter ridicule on his face as he watched them. He had never seen anyone so good at posturing. To meet an Outer Manifestation senior and still think they could turn the world upside down.

Meng Xuejing was horrified. 'Outer Manifestation level? I've seen that on the official Martial Artist website. Besides Inner Scenery, the Outer Manifestation is the strongest Realm there is! Can Chen Dong and Li Zhixuan possibly defend against that?'

Elder Guo also felt insulted. He had originally planned to use only sixty percent of his strength for this punch, but seeing Li Zhixuan's attitude, he decided to teach him a lesson he would never forget. Ninety percent it was.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. Celestial Spirit True Qi coiled around his right arm as he threw a punch toward Li Zhixuan.
