Cheng Rui was stupefied by this kick and felt a wringing pain in his stomach. Since young, this was the first time Cheng Rui was kicked in his stomach, and he was sent falling onto the ground.
Cheng Rui only had one thought in his mind, and it was constantly being repeated.
How dare he!
After consuming the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia nectar, Lin Yuan’s spirit qi professional rank hadn’t increased, and he was still a C-rank spirit qi professional. However, Lin Yuan’s body had a significant increase in strength. When furious, Lin Yuan’s kick caused Cheng Rui to suffer quite badly.
If Cheng Rui wasn’t a C-rank spirit qi professional, too, his gastric juices might have been vomited out.
The attendant, Xiao Zhang, didn’t think there would be anyone who would dare to make a move in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association, especially when it was to beat up Cheng Rui.
Xiao Zhang quickly went over to help Cheng Rui up. However, Cheng Rui was so pale while he held onto his stomach. Even after being supported by Xiao Zhang, Cheng Rui still wasn’t able to get up.
The violent-tempered woman and her daughter were flabbergasted by the sudden change of events.
After Lin Yuan gave his kick, he still had an extremely unpleasant expression. Parental love was always in the most sacred place within Lin Yuan’s heart. He might have lost his parents at a young age, but for the young Lin Yuan who had transmigrated, he remembered every moment in his heart.
After Cheng Rui insulted his parents, Lin Yuan was so angered that he actually couldn’t restrain himself from kicking him. Lin Yuan was a person of great temper, and after handling the fey store and encountering all sorts of customers from a young age, he was already rather trained. Despite that, when the sacred place in his heart was disturbed, Lin Yuan didn’t hesitate to use all his strength to execute this kick of anger.
This was also the first time in eighteen years that Lin Yuan had used violence on others.
After a long moment, Cheng Rui was finally able to stand up with Xiao Zhang’s support. Cheng Rui ground his teeth and looked at Lin Yuan with vicious eyes. “You actually dared to hit me! Not only so, you actually dared to make a move in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association! Such audacity!”
Cheng Rui then pushed away Xiao Zhang’s support and said in a cold voice, “Why are you still holding me for? Hurry up and call the enforcer here. Even if he is a Class 2 Creation Master, if he dares to make a move in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association, he shall not leave this place!”
Once Cheng Rui’s statement ended, an aged voice yelled out with rage, “Cheng Rui! Are you insane?! What are you shouting for?”
Lin Yuan looked toward the voice and realized that he had seen this person before—it was none other than Elder Du that he had met at the Radiant Moon Palace.
Elder Du walked to Lin Yuan’s side and smiled as he said, “Lin Yuan, why didn’t you tell me that you were coming to the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association? If you are visiting again next time, you just have to look for me directly. Tell me any request you have, and I shall arrange it for you.”
Lin Yuan might have a bad impression of the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association, but since Elder Du was a Class 4 Creation Master, Lin Yuan still nodded with respect.
Cheng Rui was now filled with shock and anger. After seeing Elder Du’s attitude toward Lin Yuan, Cheng Rui involuntarily recalled everything that happened in the Radiant Moon Palace. He then said loudly to Elder Du, “Elder Du, he actually made a move in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association! We must punish him! Otherwise, how can the Creation Master Association retain its authority!?”
Elder Du frowned and looked at Cheng Rui with unpleasant eyes, while his heart was cursing at Cheng Rui. Because of this ignorant child, Envoy Cold Moon berated me, and he nearly brought huge trouble to me. Yet he didn’t learn his lesson and is still stirring trouble?
Cheng Wu might have already arrived in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association, but he had been in seclusion ever since. Thus, Elder Du still hadn’t had time to report to Cheng Wu about Cheng Rui’s matters.
Cheng Rui might be a member of the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association while he was the Vice President, but Cheng Rui was still the grandson of the pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master, Cheng Wu. If Elder Du disciplined Cheng Rui without permission, it might cause Cheng Wu to have a bad opinion of Elder Du.
Therefore, Elder Du had constantly been waiting for Cheng Wu to exit from seclusion.
But now, Cheng Rui was actually causing trouble again. Elder Du spoke in a cold tone. “Cheng Rui, have you not acted violently in the association many times? If there is any punishment to be given, it shall be given to you first!”
Elder Du looked at the enforcers that were surrounding the scene and yelled, “You are all dismissed! What are you trying to do by making such a din in the main hall!?”
Elder Du then asked the attendant Xiao Zhang to stay behind and find out the exact situation.
Elder Du was the Vice President of the Creation Master Association, and Xiao Zhang didn’t even have the chance to speak with Elder Du during normal times. Now that Elder Du was asking, Xiao Zhang explained all the details and even told of Lin Yuan’s request.
Elder Du’s face was turning increasingly unpleasant as he listened, and by the end, it was completely darkened. He glared at Cheng Rui before saying to Lin Yuan, “Come, let this old one bring you to my breeding room. You may use it as you please.”
Lin Yuan shook his head and pointed at the violent-tempered woman before replying, “There is no need to trouble Elder Du. I am just here to help a friend to heal the fey’s injured roots. An ordinary breeding room is good enough.”
Elder Du laughed heartily and said, “There is no trouble at all! Since that is the case, let me bring you to the Class 2 Creation Master’s breeding room. It just so happens that I am going upstairs too.”
Elder Du then led Lin Yuan upstairs. The violent-tempered woman followed behind and was completely stunned.
After a conflict, it was actually the Vice President of the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association that personally resolved the problem. Furthermore, the Vice President seemed to be leaning toward this youth that was walking in front of her.
What background does this youth have, and how influential is his background?
In fact, the violent-tempered woman wasn’t the only person to think like this. Everyone in the Royal Capital’s Creation Master Association was also looking at the figure of that youth that vanished toward the stairs. Cheng Rui was left behind with an ashen expression, while his hand was still holding onto his stomach that had just been kicked.
Cheng Rui didn’t know what Elder Du was thinking. Just by looking at Lin Yuan’s Creation Master crest, Elder Du should know that Lin Yuan didn’t manage to become the Moon Empress’ disciple.
If Elder Du found out about Cheng Rui’s thoughts now, he might have burst out all of his suppressed anger earlier and given Cheng Rui a huge slap.
Elder Du had already noticed the Creation Master crest on Lin Yuan’s chest. However, not every Creation Master would allow their newly accepted disciple to wear their symbolized crest. Some Creation Masters would temper their disciples and choose to make them wear regular crests, not allowing their disciples to receive special privileges.
Apart from that, some disciples wouldn’t wear their masters’ symbolized crest on their chest. After all, not everyone wanted to use their masters’ reputation and wanted to rely on themselves.
The Moon Empress, Bamboo Monarch, and Chef Supreme would never wear the only three Class 5 Creation Master crest on their chests. But did that mean that the three esteemed individuals weren’t Creation Masters?
However, Elder Du overestimated Cheng Rui. It was natural for Cheng Rui, who wanted to show off all of his glory and trump cards, not to understand such things.
Elder Du had just returned after going to send off Ling Xiao, who was preparing to return to Redbud City. From the conversation with Ling Xiao, Elder Du had found out that the youth in front of him was no longer an ordinary youth, but someone with immeasurable importance!
