“That’s it! I have had enough of your nonsense!” White Lotus started approaching Zheng Weimin aggressively.
“What do you think you’re doing, White Lotus? Do you really dare to lay your hands on me?! In case you forgot, your Bai Family is only ranked 7th in the Legacy Ranking whilst my Zheng Family is ranked 5th, not even mentioning our allies! Touch even a hair on my body and I will start a war with your Bai Family!”
White Lotus gritted her teeth in frustration.
“I don’t care even if you’re ranked first in the Legacy Ranking! I will not forgive you for your actions today!”
“White Lotus.” Yuan’s calm voice suddenly resounded, causing her to halt and turn to look at him.
“That anger does not suit your face,” he said with a smile.
“…” White Lotus’ face immediately flushed with redness.
When Zheng Weimin saw White Lotus’ face, his anger skyrocketed to a new level, and he immediately started power walking towards Yuan’s table.
“Wait—” White Lotus tried to stop him, but Yuan gestured for her to stop.
Yuan stood up from his seat and faced Zheng Weimin directly.
“I don’t know who you are, but you have guts. I will give you that.”
Yuan smiled and said, “I don’t know what business you have with White Lotus, but can you do it another time? We’re having an important conversation right now.”
“I don’t give a rat’s ass about your conversation. Nobody talks to my woman without my permission!”
“That’s not very reasonable…” Yuan shook his head in a pitiful manner.
“Reasoning? Hah! Who cares about reasoning! Do you know who I am?! My surname is Zheng! My family is ranked 5 in the Legacy Ranking!”
‘Legacy… I wonder if they have anything to do with the Seven Legacy Families in the Nine Heavens.’ Yuan wondered inwardly.
“Sorry, but I’m not really knowledgeable about the Legacy Ranking, so your words mean nothing to me.”
“Don’t worry, the only words you need to understand are— If you dare come near my woman again, I will make you regret being born!”
Zheng Weimin suddenly glanced at Meixiu and Chu Liuxiang and grinned, “Are they your women? They’re not bad. How about I take them from you so you know how it feels?”
“Let’s not involve my friends in your nonsense.”
“And who are you to stop me?!” Zheng Weimin suddenly moved and reached for Meixiu with his claw-like hands.
However, before he could even get close to Meixiu, Yuan extended his hands and grabbed Zheng Weimin by the neck faster than one can blink their eyes.
“Get your hands off Young Master Zheng!”
His guards that had been in the background started flooding the roof, even pointing their pistols at Yuan.
However, Yuan acted like he couldn’t even see them and proceeded to walk towards the edge of the building with Zheng Weimin still in his hold.
The guards didn’t dare to actually shoot their guns, as they were afraid of hitting Zheng Weimin by accident.
Once Yuan was at the edge of the building, everybody there expected him to stop, but to their absolute shock, Yuan continued walking off the edge of the building.
“ARE YOU INSANE?!”
“YOUNG MASTER!”
The guards and White Lotus freaked out when they saw this.
However, contrary to their expectations, Yuan didn’t fall off the building and actually continued walking in the air, almost as though there was an invisible platform underneath him.
“W-What the hell is going on?” White Lotus mumbled in a dazed voice, wondering if her eyes were playing tricks on her.
Once he was a few meters away from the roof, Yuan stopped walking and spoke in a calm voice, “I don’t care if you badmouth me, but don’t you dare try to touch my precious friends with your dirty hands.”
Zheng Weimin wanted to scream, but Yuan had cut off his voice by choking him. He also wanted to break free from Yuan’s grasp, but seeing that the floor was hundreds of meters at the bottom, he didn’t dare to even move, as he would fall to his death from this height even with his first level Spirit Warrior cultivation base.
“I have killed thousands of people inside Cultivation Online, but I have never killed someone in this world. Do you wish to be the first?” Yuan asked him in a cold voice.
“N… No…!” Zheng Weimin muttered in a mosquito-like voice.
“Too late.” Yuan suddenly released his hold on Zheng Weimin, letting him fall down.
“AAAAHHHHHHHHHH! I DON’T WANT TO DIE!!!” Zheng Weimin cried in a hysterical voice as his bladder gave up on him during the free fall.
“Hmph.”
When Zheng Weimin was a moment away from turning into meat paste on the street, Yuan caught him and flew back to the roof of the hotel.
Once they were on the roof again, Yuan tossed Zheng Weimin, who had lost consciousness and sullied his pants, in front of his guards.
“Get that fool out of here. He’s dirtying this place with his filth. Oh, and tell him to stop bothering White Lotus when he wakes up.” Yuan said to the guards, who were in a daze trying to comprehend what they’d just witnessed.
“Guards! Get them out of here!” White Lotus shouted after snapping out of her daze.
Very quickly, the guards working for her escorted Zheng Weimin and his men out of the hotel.
“I’m really sorry about what just happened! I will make this up to you! I swear!” White Lotus apologized to them with her head lowered.
Yuan casually waved his hand, “Don’t worry about it. You can put all of the blame on that guy.”
Once White Lotus calmed down, she asked him, “By the way… What on earth was that just now? You were…”
“Flying?” Yuan interrupted.
She nodded eagerly.
“You’ll be able to fly as well once you reach Spirit Grandmaster,” he said.
Although he wasn’t able to immediately start flying after reaching Spirit Grandmaster and had to rely on his sword to fly, he practiced his Qi Manifestation almost everyday and managed to finally fly just a week ago.
“No way…” White Lotus muttered in a baffled voice, still not daring to believe it.
