He said indifferently, “Then on account that I’ve just arrived on the island and you’ve pleaded, I can let you off. But the next time I see you, I hope you can improve. At the very least, watch your mouth. Otherwise… Don’t even think about speaking again in this lifetime.”

The coldness of his words made everyone shudder. This is a blatant threat, right? He’s young and fearless. He has just arrived on the island and has already offended the Guo family, who has the most authority. If this young man doesn’t leave quickly, the other party will definitely not let him off easily.

Lu Ming could not be bothered with what others thought. He let go of Guo Jiangjia, who staggered and fell on his butt! He grimaced and held his arm, his eyes almost turning red like a rabbit. Zhang Er quickly went forward to help him up. “Young Master Guo, are you alright?”

“Do I look like I’m f*cking fine?! Why don’t you remove your arm too!”

Guo Jiangjia was furious. He turned his gaze back to Lu Ming and said, “Just you wait! You’re just doing whatever you want with a few bodyguards! If you have the guts, don’t leave this island. I’ll go back and call for help!”

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes and flicked his wrist. His lips curled up as he said, “Alright, I’ll wait for you.”

“D*mn it!” Guo Jiangjia shouted.

After throwing out this curse, he left in a sorry state. Yu Yan could not help but feel guilty. Is this the confidence of a big shot? He has just arrived and is already going against the largest family on the island. No one can be this lucky! He asked tentatively, “Do you need a bandage?”

He looked at the red mark on his wrist and couldn’t help but curse in his heart. Guo Jiangjia had injured his new superior. He wondered what the other party would think when he found out Lu Ming’s true identity. Would he be surprised, stunned, or in disbelief? From his appearance, Lu Ming looked like an ordinary person with a good family background. No one would be able to guess his true identity, right?

Hearing this, Lu Ming couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s just that I haven’t been active for too long. I’m not that weak. After all, I used to learn some self-defense skills. It’s naturally not a problem for me to deal with such a weak profligate son. It’s better to say that my opponent is too weak.”

I see. I can finally put my mind at rest.

Yu Yan heaved a sigh of relief and asked worriedly, “This is the Guo family’s territory after all. You can’t really fight him, right? Why don’t I help you get some people? However, compared to the Guo family’s armed forces, they might be slightly weaker because the Guo family holds the high-quality resources here.”

“Suit yourself.”

Anyway, Lu Ming did not plan to leave early. This was his territory. How could he let his guests occupy his house?

Seeing how fearless he was, Yu Yan sighed softly. Did I invite an ancestor over? Does this person know how powerful the Guo family is? Although their home ground was on Justice Island, they owned many properties overseas. Their wealth was something ordinary people could not even fritter away in their entire lives!

However, on second thought, Lu Ming indeed knew nothing about this island. It was normal for such a situation to happen. It seemed that he had to find some useful people!

“Then please come with me to sign the contract.”

…

On the other side, in a manor on southeastern Justice Island.

Guo Jiangjia’s right arm was wrapped in layers of white bandages like a pig’s trotter. He crossed his feet and placed them on the low table. He said, like a boss, “Little Er, didn’t you say that you learned boxing in South Korea for several years? But today, you actually lost to that guy?!”

Zhang Er had also applied a hemostatic ointment on his body. He said helplessly, “That’s true, but my master didn’t teach me any fist techniques to deal with so many people. He told me that if the other party is also a martial artist, escape is the best strategy, as the saying goes. No matter how strong one’s martial arts is, one would be leery of a group fight.”

He paused for a moment and continued, “As long as we bring more people over this time, I don’t believe that we can’t deal with that guy! As for the Grand Secretary, he has always been tactful. I believe he knows what to do, right? Without his protection, that kid definitely won’t dare to act rashly!”

“Do I need you to tell me?”

Guo Jiangjia curled his lips in disdain and said, “Hurry up and find a few skilled people for me. I want to beat that guy until even his father can’t recognize him! If he’s smart, he will run away secretly. If he really stays according to the agreement, I’ll suspect that there’s something wrong with this person’s brain!”

“Alright!”

Zhang Er had just stood up from his chair when he saw a figure walking hurriedly towards the door. “Young Master Guo, the information you asked me to investigate has been released. That young man seems to have opened a small company in China to earn money. He probably came to Justice Island to travel, right?”

At first, Guo Jiangjia believed what the Grand Secretary said, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Would anyone bring bodyguards with him wherever he went? It was not like his house, but it was understandable if he had some money. He was just pretending to be rich.

Indeed, he could not be compared to him.

“So he’s really a distant relative of the Grand Secretary?”

To be honest, he did not believe all of this. After all, he had lived for so many years and had never heard that the Grand Secretary had a relative who ran a company outside. Therefore, it was quite normal for him to be suspicious.

The blond foreigner spoke in Chinese with a strange accent, “We didn’t find any relevant information, but the Grand Secretary wouldn’t lie about this. He’s just a distant relative. It might be too far away, so we didn’t find any clues.”

That made sense.

Guo Jiangjia stared ahead with a gloomy expression. He had actually been slapped in the face by such a small fry in public?! When he thought of the crowd that had obstructed him previously, he was enraged! Making him lose face in front of so many people was worse than killing him! After all, he had always valued face more than anything!

No! He had to get back at them this time! It would be best if he could crush them! Otherwise, this stain would haunt him for the rest of his life! He did not want anyone to laugh at him behind his back for this!

Thinking of this, he was about to speak when Zhang Er beat him to it. “Young Master Guo, I think what this person lacks is a beating. Does he think that we won’t dare to touch him just because he has connections on Justice Island? He’s gravely mistaken! Even if the emperor comes, he will have to prostrate at your feet!”

Guo Jiangjia had to admit that these words pleased him.

Seeing this, Zhang Er continued, “And I think there’s a big problem with the Grand Secretary too!”
