Teaching a Brat a Lesson

Prince Jing valued his only son highly.

A personal guard of two hundred men, mostly martial artists, with two of the four Xiantian masters providing close protection.

Judging from his demeanor, he must be a person from the martial arts world, who was recruited by Prince Jing.

Walking on the official road.

Qin Yan sensed a hidden aura in the surroundings!

Magnetic Field diffusion!

Qin Yan covered the area of several thousand meters within his perception range and spotted the figure.

"He's very strong; he's at least a Grandmaster."

Qin Yan's surprise deepened; the strength of this Prince Jing was truly astonishing.

Two Grandmasters and four Innate Martial Artists!

All of this was to protect his only heir.

The hidden strength behind it is probably even greater.

But just to be sure!

Qin Yan arrived at the old man carrying the giant sword!

"Senior!"

Peng Tao, the Sea-Covering Sword, looked at the genius before him, whom even Prince Jing praised highly.

"Young friend Qin, what business do you have with this old man?"

"Has His Highness Prince Jing arranged for a skilled protector to secretly protect the Crown Prince?"

Upon hearing this, Peng Tao's pupils contracted sharply, and he stared at Qin Yan in shock. "How did you know?"

"Really!"

Qin Yan understood immediately and calmly replied, "This junior possesses naturally strong senses and discovered that someone was secretly following me, which is why I inquired with you, senior."

Peng Tao was filled with a storm of emotions.

How old is this kid? Even if he has reached the Xiantian Realm, it would be almost impossible for him to detect Grandmaster hiding in the shadows.

But this kid was able to sense the other party's presence.

His talent is simply terrifying.

"Such people are naturally sensitive to danger, and more importantly, their agility is unmatched, making their risk of death extremely low."

This child is born to become a strongman!

Peng Tao was filled with amazement and envy.

It took him a full thirty-five years to become a martial artist at the Xiantian Realm, and he was already seventy-two years old when he reached the Grandmaster.

"This kid is probably already Innate Martial Artist."

Peng Tao guessed in his heart that the Thousand-Year Blood Ginseng that His Highness Prince Jing had sent was no ordinary thing.

"A fifteen-year-old Innate Martial Artist —if word got out, it would probably shock the entire Great Li Dynasty."

If those geniuses and prodigies in Capital knew about Qin Yan, they'd be in for a good show!

"Senior, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that the old man in front of him remained silent, Qin Yan couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, nothing, I just thought of something interesting!"

Peng Tao chuckled softly, his eyes filled with anticipation, and immediately patted Qin Yan on the shoulder. "Go for it!"

As he spoke, he rode his fine horse, which quietly followed beside the carriage where Prince Jing was!

What does that mean?

Qin Yan was somewhat confused by the other party's words.

The journey was long and tedious!

The journey to Capital took at least two months, due to the vast territory of the Great Li Dynasty.

"But I'm exhausted."

After a day's journey, the Prince Jing's initial excitement had faded, replaced by helplessness and frustration.

Now they've settled in the wilderness!

Xia Chengqian's eyes darted around, and he swaggered over to Qin Yan's side with two bodyguards and a personal eunuch.

He stared at Qin Yan with unbridled leniency!

"I have heard from my father that you have the opportunity to break the record for the fastest breakthrough to the Xiantian in the Great Li Dynasty."

Furthermore, I've heard that you lived in the Underworld for two months. Are there many evil spirits living there?

Are you so scared of those evil spirits that you're hiding everywhere?

Xia Chengqian for an answer out of curiosity.

"He really is a brat."

Seeing the young man's unruly behavior, Qin Yan immediately decided he didn't want to be this guy anymore!

The Tie brothers, who were responsible for close protection, also had a slight change in expression.

Tie Xiong, the eldest son of the Tie family, bowed and said, "Your Highness, please do not be impolite."

"Snort!"

Xia Chengqian immediately snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, "I am the future Prince Jing, not a mere sixth-rank official."

"It is an honor that I, the Crown Prince, have come to inquire in person."

"I told you so, right?"

Xia Chengqian raised his head arrogantly, wanting to see Qin Yan's expression of fear and trepidation.

However, this outcome disappointed him!

Qin Yan glanced at him expressionlessly, chuckled, and stopped lying.

Peng Tao watched quietly from the side, as if it were none of his business.

"How dare you!"

The prince's attendant eunuch, Wang Qi, immediately rebuked him coldly. "How dare a mere sixth-rank official show such disrespect to His Highness! You should...!"

Before he could finish speaking...

Qin Yan had already firmly gripped the other person's neck and lifted him off the ground.

"You talk too much nonsense. If you bark at me again, I'll tear you apart."

Sizzle!

The Tie brothers also drew their long swords, looking at Qin Yan warily. "Inspector Qin, please stop!"

Xia Chengqian was also startled, but after he came to his senses, he was filled with anger:

"Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner. How dare you hit my servant!"

Tie Xiong, Tie Hong, take him down!

On the other side, the commander and deputy commander of the personal guard also noticed the conflict and were about to go over when Peng Tao stopped them!

He shook his head, indicating that they should ignore it.

The commander and deputy commander exchanged a glance and then fell silent.

Prince Jing decreed that all instructions during this trip to the Capital must be followed in accordance with those of Grandmaster Peng Tao.

Now they can only wait and see how things develop.

"I'd like to see what you can do to me!"

Qin Yan looked completely unconcerned, increasing the pressure on his hand until Wang Qi's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. The feeling of suffocation and death made him suddenly feel the urge to urinate.

A foul-smelling liquid trickled down his trouser leg.

Seeing this, Qin Yan looked disgusted and immediately threw him away, followed by the other person's scream.

"This is outrageous!"

Xia Chengqian had been pampered since childhood, and this was the first time he had ever seen anyone dare to disobey him!

He was immediately so angry that his face turned red.

"What are you two still standing there for? Get him!"

The brothers Tie Xiong and Tie Hong exchanged a glance; they had no choice but to comply with the prince's order.

"Excuse me!"

The moment the words left his mouth, the two attacked almost simultaneously!

A dense curtain of sword shadows enveloped Qin Yan, leaving no room for escape.

The two brothers have been of one mind since childhood, and when they attack together, they can even defeat opponents who are a whole realm higher than them!

Qin Yan remained calm, standing still, as if their attacks were always just a hair's breadth apart.

There's no way to cut Qin Yan!

"What superb footwork!"

Peng Tao was amazed at the sight, and with a few quick movements, he easily dodged their attacks.

Such exquisite footwork is truly rare in the world.

No wonder so many people are interested in this person!

Such exceptional talent certainly gives one the right to be arrogant, and it also allows one to gain the tolerance of many people.

Qin Yan was able to act so recklessly not only because he had the backing of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau, but also because he had the tacit approval of Prince Jing!

He knows his son's character better than anyone else.

Qin Yan will not only get away with beating Xia Chengqian, but Prince Jing will also have to repay his favor.

At that moment, Qin Yan's eyes darted around rapidly!

The Tie brothers launched a fierce attack, but against Qin Yan, their speed was as slow as a tortoise crawl.

Swish!

Qin Yan suddenly accelerated so fast that the two brothers couldn't keep up. His palms were like knives, slicing straight down their ribs!

With just one move, he knocked both of them to the ground, their faces contorted in extreme pain.

"So fast!"

Peng Tao was amazed by what he saw. Qin Yan's timing was extremely precise, and his terrifying speed made it almost a fatal blow.

He faced two Innate Martial Artists, yet he defeated them with ease.

In a life-or-death struggle, the Tie brothers would probably have died at the hands of their opponent long ago.

At this moment, Qin Lin looked at Xia Chengqian, who was completely terrified, and a smile immediately appeared on his face!

"What do you want... I am the Prince Jing... Ouch!"

Before Xia Chengqian could finish speaking, he screamed in agony!

Qin Yan grabbed the other person's face with both hands and lifted them up, causing the other person to burst into tears from the pain.

"Qin Yan, how dare you lay a hand on the royal family! I will kill you!"

"Hehe!"

Qin Yan laughed indifferently, "Trying to kill me won't be that easy."

You don't think that just because you're the heir apparent, no one in the world will dare to touch you.

This isn't Tianlan Prefecture; your father can't help you.

As he spoke, Qin Yan looked at the other person coldly. "Not everyone in this world has to pamper you. You only have one life, so you'd better behave yourself!"

Did you understand?

Xia Chengqian felt the cold gaze from the front line and was so frightened that tears streamed down his face. He answered in a choked voice.

"I'll never do it again, I'll definitely behave and listen to you!"
