Sixth Young Master! Isn't that my own younger brother?
Guo Yunjiang's expression turned to the extreme of shock and fury. He roared, "That's impossible! This is Beijing, and Yuntian is one of our Guos. Who would dare hit him? This is impossible, absolutely impossible!!"
He simply couldn't believe it!
Ever since the Guos had risen to become an elite family in Beijing, being a member meant they could essentially do as they pleased within the city. As long as they didn't provoke top-tier families like the Huos or the He Family, there would be no concerns at all! No one would dare to mess with the Guos, let alone lay a hand on the Guos' Sixth Young Master! How could this possibly be?!
"Fourth Young Master, it's absolutely true!" The butler was so anxious he was nearly in tears, saying urgently, "The Sixth Young Master is almost out of time! His lower body has been smashed into a pulp!! The perpetrator was truly merciless. Now, the Sixth Young Master is basically left with just half a body. The entire lower half is gone! Fourth Young Master, you must avenge the Sixth Young Master! I'll send you the photos."
DING-DONG!!
Guo Yunjiang's mobile phone chimed with a WeChat notification. The butler had sent him photos of Guo Yuntian in the hospital's intensive care unit, along with some information about Qin Heng.
He opened it. His eyes instantly turned bloodshot, filled with murderous intent!
CRACK!!
Guo Yunjiang flung his phone. It hit the floor and shattered into pieces. An iPhone X was nothing to him!
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!! Someone actually dared to beat my younger brother to this state! Such audacity! Such incredible audacity!" Guo Yunjiang got off the bed and bellowed, "Someone come! I need people here!!"
THUMP THUMP THUMP!!
"Young Master, please give your orders!!"
They were all servants of the Guos!! At Guo Yunjiang's command, these men would carry out their duties, ready to sacrifice their lives!! Even if faced with tasks that could cost them their very lives, they would execute them with all their might, without so much as frowning!!
"Go to Yangming District, to the Old City Gate Fried Sauce Noodle Shop! Kidnap a man named Qin Xuantian!" Guo Yunjiang said through gritted teeth. "If he dares resist, then beat him until he's disabled. Just make sure he doesn't die!!"
He was enraged! It wasn't because his relationship with Guo Yuntian was particularly deep. Rather, he saw himself in Guo Yuntian; he empathized, feeling as if it had happened to him!
Since someone dared to do that to Guo Yuntian, it meant they dared to do the same to him, Guo Yunjiang! This was a provocation against the Guos! They were slapping the Guos' face right in front of all of Beijing's elite!
Guo Yunjiang was acutely aware that he lived so comfortably and splendidly in Beijing only because of the Guos' might. If one day the Guos' authority vanished, he, Guo Yunjiang, wouldn't fare well either!
Now that Guo Yuntian had been beaten so brutally, if they couldn't severely punish the assailant, the Guos would undoubtedly lose face in Beijing. No one would respect them anymore! They might even be expelled from the ranks of elite families, reduced to an ordinary Beijing family. Worse, it could disappoint the Huos, spelling the end for the Guos!
Once the Guos were finished, he, Guo Yunjiang, would be finished too! This couldn't happen! It absolutely couldn't happen!
Guo Yunjiang, like an enraged lion, let out a low roar. "Qin Xuantian! No matter who you are, daring to mess with the Guos is simply courting death!!"
「...」
Qin Heng wasn't concerned about whether the Guos would retaliate. To him, a mere vassal family of the Huos was insignificant. A single word from him, and the Huo family would annihilate the entire Guo family. There was no doubt about it. This was because the Huos were allied with the He Family through marriage. He Yiming, the He Family heir, was engaged to Huo Weiwei, the daughter of the Huo Family Head. The two families were extremely close. The Huos couldn't possibly be unaware of Qin Heng's relationship with the He Family or his terrifying power.
After leaving Media University, Qin Heng cast aside the affairs of the Guo family and took Wu Yuqing directly to the old city area of Yangming District. There was an Old City Gate Fried Sauce Noodle Shop there, a place holding childhood memories for Qin Heng.
And not just memories from this life. They were also memories from his childhood on Earth in his previous life.
In his past life, Qin Heng became an orphan at six. He only began truly cultivating at seven, after accidentally obtaining a rudimentary Qi Refinement technique. Before that, his life had been quite miserable. A six-year-old child, wandering in Beijing. He had passed out from hunger by the roadside several times. It was the kind-hearted owner of the Old City Gate Fried Sauce Noodle Shop who took him in, fed him noodles, and saved his life.
In a sense, if it weren't for the owner of that noodle shop, perhaps I would have starved to death on the street at the age of six in my previous life. And there would not have been the Supreme Immortal Emperor who would later dominate the heavens and reign supreme for eternity.
Therefore, Qin Heng held a deep affection for this Old City Gate Fried Sauce Noodle Shop.
Upon arriving at the old city area, he found it still had the familiar atmosphere of old Beijing, with alleyways crisscrossing closely, fostering a sense of community with few barriers. However, it wasn't as bustling as before. Many houses were marked with large characters for "Demolish," clearly indicating they would soon be torn down.
Qin Heng, accompanied by Wu Yuqing, arrived at the Old City Gate Fried Sauce Noodle Shop. He saw the familiar yet also strange owner and heard a voice that was so familiar from his previous life.
There weren't many customers in the shop, just three or four occupied tables scattered about.
"Welcome! Please, come in!"
The owner, a man in his fifties who looked honest and kind, immediately greeted them warmly when he saw Qin Heng and Wu Yuqing enter. "What can I get for you?"
Very enthusiastic, with the characteristic warmth of an old Beijinger.
The Qin Heng of this world hadn't interacted much with this owner, but seeing his enthusiasm, he couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia.
"Two bowls of fried sauce noodles, extra sauce, and your secret seasoning powder, please," Qin Heng said with a smile, guiding Wu Yuqing to a seat.
In my previous life, at the age of six, I considered fried sauce noodles with the owner's secret seasoning powder to be the most delicious food in the world.
"Alrighty!" the owner responded, then asked with a puzzled expression, "Young man, I don't think I've seen you here before. How do you know about the seasoning so well?"
"Just heard about it," Qin Heng smiled.
He looked around at the quiet patrons eating their noodles, at the shop itself, the owner, and anticipated the fried sauce noodles that were about to be served. Familiar, yet strange. For a moment, he felt as if time and space were intertwining, worlds overlapping.
At that instant, he felt his Divine Sense suddenly ascend to an infinite height, once again touching the Supreme Realm that even the Eternal Realm could not reach!!
Supreme Law! An epiphany!
CLANG!
Just then, the sound of shattering glass suddenly rang out. A brick had smashed through the window of the noodle shop!
BANG!
It struck Qin Heng on the head!!
"Old Man Yang! Get the hell out here!" a domineering voice shouted from outside.
Then, about a dozen thuggish youths blocked the entrance of the noodle shop. Their leader, sporting dyed-yellow hair and holding a baseball bat, said with a vicious expression, "Boss Liu wants to tear down this shitty shop of yours to build his high-rise! Don't be a fucking idiot who doesn't know what's good for him! Get your ass out here, now! If you don't, I'm not just smashing this dump today, I'm gonna beat the shit out of you too! Motherfucker!"
