"I..."

The old hyena was just about to retort when he met Zhu Changxiong's sharp, cold gaze, and instantly deflated.

He understood Zhu Changxiong well; if he didn't take all the blame, Zhu Changxiong wouldn't spare his family.

The situation had reached this point; there was no choice.

"Yes, it's true, I orchestrated this scam."

"Master Zhu was also unaware; he was deceived by me too."

"I deserve to die ten thousand times."

With the old hyena's confession, it confirmed that the golden lotus pod was indeed a fake medicine.

"It turns out the real thing is fake."

"This young man is not old, but he has such a keen eye."

"Truly a young hero, it seems like a dragon that has crossed the river."

Everyone looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with heavy eyes.

"Phew, my God, I nearly made a huge mistake."

Lin Kerou, who had been intent on auctioning the golden lotus pod at all costs, felt her heart tremble, her legs softened, and she fell back into her chair.

If it weren't for Zhang Xiaoshan, she would have made a grave mistake today.

After the old hyena took all the blame alone, Zhu Changxiong shamelessly turned to Jiang Qin and said,

"Miss Jiang, you heard it all. Heavens, I was not aware of this; I am also a victim."

"I apologize to you."

"You..."

Jiang Qin was about to curse but was restrained by Yang Hai.

"Miss, let it go. It's better to have fewer troubles than more; going against the truth with him won't yield much. Pushing him too hard, he might lash out, and it will backfire."

"Even if we want to handle him, let's wait until we return to Taiwan."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qin took a deep breath.

"Fine, since you were unaware, let's let this matter rest."

Zhu Changxiong said.

"Thank you, Miss Jiang, for your generosity. I owe you an explanation for this matter."

"Old bastard, go die."

Zhu Changxiong was not one to be soft-hearted.

At this moment, he intended to kill the old hyena to silence him.

He pulled a boomerang from his waist and hurled it at the old hyena.

"Clang."

Just as the boomerang was about to pierce the old hyena's neck, Zhang Xiaoshan flicked his fingers, sending a stream of True Qi to knock the boomerang away.

Sparing the old hyena's life.

"Help, save me."

Having narrowly escaped death, the old hyena, seeing Zhang Xiaoshan as his savior, quickly scrambled up and hid behind Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Kid, you're meddling again?"

Zhu Changxiong was furious.

Zhang Xiaoshan coldly said to Zhu Changxiong,

"This old hyena defrauded Miss Jiang; what right do you have to judge him?"

"Miss Jiang, how about leaving his life to me?"

Hearing this, Jiang Qin immediately nodded and said,

"You helped clear my doubts, saving me from wasting a fortune and preserving the Jiang family's honor. If you want an old life, I'll give it to you."

"Did you hear that?"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Zhu Changxiong provocatively.

Zhu Changxiong was furious, but what could he do with Jiang Qin saying that?

"Alright, kid, you wait. You better not let me see you again."

"I don't care to see you either."

Zhang Xiaoshan coldly retorted to Zhu Changxiong, then led the old hyena toward Lin Kerou and the other two, ready to leave.

At this moment, Zhu Changxiong's phone rang.

The furious Zhu Changxiong had no mind to answer, but as it kept ringing, he had to pick up.

"What, the young master has been crippled?"

"Who did it?"

"A young guy from out of town? A young martial artist? Connected to Hundred Herbs Hall?"

Upon hearing his subordinate describe these characteristics,

Zhu Changxiong threw his phone on the ground in rage.

Roaring like a tiger, he shouted at the departing Zhang Xiaoshan.

"You bastard, seeking death!"

"Shoo shoo shoo..."

Today, Zhu Changxiong was prepared.

With his outburst, hidden close allies appeared from all sides.

Dozens of people sealed off the entrance tightly.

"What's happening?"

"Wasn't the matter of the thousand-year-old golden lotus pod resolved? What is Zhu Changxiong up to now?"

People were puzzled.

"This is bad. It seems Zhu Changxiong received some news; we can't make it out of the door."

Hu Ming muttered to himself.

Lin Kerou and Zhao Xiaoxiao, the two cousin sisters, were also frightened by the scene in front of them.

"Completely provoked Zhu Changxiong; now the situation has become uncontrollable."

Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled and remained calm.

"Don't worry, it's just Master Zhu, even if it were Sect Leader Hu Lie of the Flying Fox Sect, he'd have to bow and greet me. Wait and you'll see a good show."

Jiang Qin wanted to step forward to help Zhang Xiaoshan but was stopped by Yang Hai.

"Miss, I think this matter isn't simple; it's best we don't intervene."

"Let's wait and see how things unfold."

Jiang Qin had no choice but to give up.

"Kid, let me ask you."

"Was it you who broke my son's limbs and ruined his lifeline, leaving the Zhu family without heirs?"

Zhu Changxiong questioned sternly.

"What?"

"The Zhu family left without heirs?"

The entire audience was shocked and horrified.
