Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Get Over Here

Seeing things were going south, the Personal Guard cried out. He helped the Dragon Guard up and fled, shouting as he ran, "Quick, go inform the Patriarch, and the other brothers from the Dragon Platform!"

Inside the Martial Arts Arena, the men who had been knocked down scrambled to their feet and also rushed outside in a single-minded horde.

Qin Tianxuan watched them go, shaking his head. He walked onto the platform and untied Wutian’s ropes.

"Sir." Wutian grimaced in pain, taking a long moment to catch his breath. "I was useless..."

Qin Tianxuan shook his head again. "Just sit and rest for a while. I’ll handle this."

He glanced outside. "The Dragon Platform Phoenix Hall has such a lofty reputation. How are its Guards so pathetic?"

Wutian gave a wry smile. "They’re actually quite strong. The fact that they could withstand a move or two from you, Sir, and still get up and run away, shows that they’re not weak at all."

It was only because Qin Tianxuan’s power had grown again recently that his opponents seemed to be getting weaker.

"Sir, that Dragon Guard mentioned the East Sea Dragon Family. That wouldn’t be the one under Taichu, would it?"

Taichu, the leader of the Ten Thousand Realms Hall.

He was also the most mysterious figure among Qin Tianxuan’s subordinates in the Five Palaces and Nine Armies.

Qin Tianxuan smiled, took out his phone, and called Taichu.

"Sir! Your orders?"

"Taichu, do you remember Long Youhai?"

"Long Youhai? Of course. I had his fleet transport some things for me just a few days ago. Why do you ask, Sir?"

Qin Tianxuan chuckled. "No reason. Just asking."

He hung up.

Just then, the sound of heavy footsteps came from outside.

A booming voice followed. "Who was it? Who beat you up like this? Shit, does the name of my East Sea Dragon Family mean nothing anymore?"

A white-haired old man appeared, radiating a menacing aura.

This was none other than the Patriarch of the East Sea Dragon Family!

Known as the East Sea Dragon King!

On the high seas, his name was legendary!

The Long Clan’s primary business was maritime shipping, and they controlled innumerable cargo vessels.

Moreover, their connections were extensive, with a network that spanned the globe!

Long Youhai’s life story was the stuff of legend.

The old man had only started his business at fifty, building it from nothing. He was once a mere deckhand on a ship, but by a stroke of luck, he came to know a "super boss" named Taichu.

This Taichu was mysterious and unfathomable, with influence that reached across the Outer Lands.

And so, under Taichu’s patronage, Long Youhai finally became a titan of his era!

But today, his brow was deeply furrowed, as if weighed down by some trouble. To make matters worse, he’d just found one of his clan’s younger generation being bullied, so he was fuming, his beard practically bristling with rage.

Long Youhai looked around as soon as he entered.

Behind him, the Dragon Guard clutched his mouth in agony. "God-grandfather, you must avenge me! That bastard... he’s... he’s over there!"

Every word he spoke was agony, and his voice was muffled and indistinct.

Long Youhai raised his head and looked toward the platform.

Then his entire body jolted as if he’d been struck by lightning.

He stumbled backward several steps, a cold sweat instantly beading on his forehead.

He rubbed his eyes again and again, trying to make sure he wasn’t seeing things.

’But the man standing up there... he hasn’t changed at all. It really is him!’

’He’s Boss Taichu’s boss!’

’I think I’ve only seen this Mr. Qin three times, and each time I was paying respects from a distance, standing far behind Boss Taichu!’

’No way!’

’It can’t possibly be him, can it?’

Long Youhai began to cough violently.

The Dragon Guard and the others watched in astonishment. "What’s wrong with the Patriarch? Is he not feeling well?"

At that moment, Qin Tianxuan clasped his hands behind his back and spoke indifferently, "Long Youhai, roll over here!"

What?!

’Is this guy insane?’

’He actually told the East Sea Dragon King to roll over here?’

The Dragon Guard’s eyes went wide, his fury uncontrollable.

"Cripple him!"

"Show him the might of the Long Family!"

They clamored and roared.

Just then, Long Youhai finally confirmed Qin Tianxuan’s identity. He spun around and bellowed, "All of you, shut your mouths!"

The sound was so powerful it made everyone’s ears ring.

The Dragon Guard stammered, stuttered, and couldn’t get a single word out.

Long Youhai took a deep breath, bowed deeply, and lowered his head to walk forward.

Qin Tianxuan said coldly, "Halt. I said to ’roll’ over here! Luo the Sixth, you know what ’roll’ means, don’t you?"

Luo the Sixth was an old nickname of the East Sea Dragon King, from long before he earned his title. Almost no one knew it.

Facing Qin Tianxuan, Long Youhai chuckled obsequiously, actually got down on the ground, and, in a comical display, began to literally roll toward the platform.

His movements even looked quite practiced.

As he rolled, he even asked cautiously, "Sir, is this rolling form acceptable to you?"

HISS...

Everyone was dumbfounded, their mouths hanging wide open in disbelief!

’Are we seeing things?!’

’What is this scene?’

By the time Long Youhai had "rolled" all the way to Qin Tianxuan, the members of the Long Family behind him were still petrified.

Wutian was also watching, stunned. "I’d heard Taichu say that this Luo the Sixth knows when to bend and when to stretch. Now that I see it, his reputation is well-deserved."

Even Qin Tianxuan was left speechless. "Alright, get up. We wouldn’t want people to say I’m bullying an old man."

Long Youhai scrambled to his feet. Despite his age, his movements were still nimble.

He bowed to Qin Tianxuan once more, his face a mask of fawning smiles. "Sir, you have the kindest heart. Please, I beg you, don’t tell Lord Taichu what happened here. If he finds out, my life will be miserable!"

Qin Tianxuan smiled faintly. "Cut the nonsense. Is that Dragon Guard your grandson?"

Long Youhai shook his head frantically. "You know me, Sir. I’m still an old bachelor at my age. That’s just a piece of trash raised by one of my godsons!"

’So, a god-grandson!’

Qin Tianxuan gestured toward Wutian. "The Dragon Guard captured my brother and brought his men to surround my courtyard. I am very displeased right now. Tell me, what should be done?"
