Sure Enough, He Couldn't Afford to Go Soft!

When Xiao Lin heard Xiao Yan's shout and realized what was happening, his face turned dark.

Okay, okay, is this how you play it?

At this moment, how could Xiao Lin not see that this was done on purpose by his own grandson?

Xiao Lin is over eighty years old; he's seen more of the world than Xiao Yan has ever known. Surely he could tell this kid was doing it on purpose?

Do you really think he's getting old and has dementia?

What? You slipped your hand?

What was thrown out of bounds?

If he believes his cunning grandson today, he'll call the other party "Grandpa"!

If you say that Xiao Yan couldn't control the power of the Fire Lotus when it was unleashed at full force, Xiao Lin might believe you.

However, that miniature Fire Lotus was only powerful enough to blast Dou Zong at most. If Xiao Yan, Four-Revolution Dou Venerate, couldn't control it perfectly, he might as well buy a block of tofu and smash his head against it!

Isn't this a clear indication that Xiao Yan has doubts about Xiao Lin's strength, and that's why he's testing him in this way?

In Xiao Lin's words, Xiao Yan's probing was practically as if he was about to throw that miniature Fire Lotus right in his face!

"Just you wait, grandpa!"

After gritting his teeth and muttering a vicious curse in his heart, Xiao Lin brazenly accepted the sparks that erupted from the miniature Fire Lotus.

After all, he's just a low-level Dou Emperor right now, how can he possibly stop him?

"Boom"

In the end, that spark exploded close to Xiao Lin's head.

Instantly, sparks flew everywhere, engulfing half of Xiao Lin's body.

"Grandfather!"

"Great-grandfather!"

Upon seeing this, gasps of surprise erupted from all sides.

Immediately afterwards, everyone swarmed around.

"No way? Could it be that Grandpa is really just an Ordinary Dou Emperor? Then what I just did..."

Seeing his grandfather fall victim to the disease, Xiao Yan's heart naturally skipped a beat.

This current development was not what he had expected.

According to his calculations, his grandfather should have been able to extinguish the spark that could have injured a Dou Emperor after the explosion of that miniature Fire Lotus by blowing a breath or waving his hand!

Why didn't the plot unfold as I imagined?

Am I overthinking things? Is Grandpa hiding nothing?

At that moment, countless thoughts flashed through Xiao Yan's mind.

"Waaah~, Daddy, did I cause this to Great-Grandpa? If I hadn't asked to see the Big Blossom Flower, would Great-Grandpa have been injured and ended up like this?"

At the same time, just as Xiao Yan was wondering if his grandfather had any secrets, Xiao Xiao's sobbing reached his ears.

This instantly brought Xiao Yan back to his senses.

Seeing his daughter's guilty expression and tearful face, Xiao Yan felt a pang of heartache.

"Xiao Xiao, don't cry, don't cry. This has nothing to do with Xiao Xiao. It was just that Daddy accidentally threw the little flower too far and it hit Great-Grandpa. It was Daddy's fault. Don't be sad, Xiao Xiao. Great-Grandpa will be alright."

At this moment, Xiao Yan was frantically comforting his daughter while also checking on his grandfather's injuries.

"Cough cough~"

As for Xiao Lin, he naturally wouldn't be injured by such a small flame.

That tiny flame could only injure a high-level Dou Emperor at best.

His apparent strength was that of a low-level Dou Emperor.

So, naturally, when the flames went out, Xiao Lin, who was slightly injured, appeared before everyone.

His face was covered in soot, his body was charred black, his hair was burned and curled, and he kept coughing up black smoke.

Well, to sum it up, he looked disheveled, but no vital organs were damaged.

After all, before Xiao Yan took action to test the waters, he naturally considered whether he was overthinking things.

Therefore, he only threw a miniature Fire Lotus, and only used a spark after the miniature Fire Lotus bloomed to test his grandfather.

The test proved that his grandfather was indeed just an Ordinary low- Dou Emperor!

This caused Xiao Yan to feel extremely guilty at this moment.

"Grandpa, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I really didn't mean to! Quick, here, I have some excellent healing Medicinal Pill here, please take it!"

While apologizing profusely, Xiao Yan also took out an Eighth-Tier healing Medicinal Pill from his Storage Ring.

In order to maintain his injured persona, Xiao Lin had no choice but to swallow the Tier 8 Medicinal Pill.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Lin imitated the effect of the Medicinal Pill, causing his body to emit a hazy green light.

Before long, Xiao Lin was "recovered," though he still looked somewhat disheveled.

"Crunch"

The sound of bones rubbing together rang out; this was Xiao Lin pressing on the joints of his hands after he had "recovered."

"You accidentally dropped it, didn't you?"

Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Yan with a half-smile.

"Grandpa, I..."

Xiao Yan felt guilty.

"You threw it at the wrong place, didn't you?"

Xiao Lin's smile widened even more.

"Grandpa, I really didn't mean to!"

Xiao Yan tried to argue his way out of it.

"You didn't do it on purpose, did you?"

"Crunch"

Xiao Lin continued to massage his hand bones as he approached Xiao Yan step by step.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, as well as Medusa, Xiao Yi Xian, Nalan Yanran, and the other women, all quietly moved a little further away.

Whether or not they knew about Xiao Lin's affairs, it seemed they had no right to intervene when their grandfather wanted to discipline his grandson...

After all, not to mention Xiao Lin, even they had all figured it out just now.

Xiao Yan definitely did it on purpose!

A Four-Revolution Dou Venerate) conjured a Fire Lotus that could only injure Dou Zong), yet couldn't control it?

That's a lie!

If Xiao Yan hadn't used the excuse of showing the Zihua flower to Xiao Xiao, that miniature Fire Lotus would probably have been thrown directly at his grandfather's face!

Therefore, they truly felt no sympathy for Xiao Yan's subsequent fate.

Grandpa, I was wrong!

Seeing that his eldest brother, second brother, and Medusa and the other women had all avoided him, Xiao Yan had no choice but to back down.

Considering that his grandfather seemed to be just an Ordinary Dou Emperor, his probing behavior just now was indeed excessive!

"You know you were wrong, right? Then Xiao Yan, get ready to receive Grandpa's iron fist of love!"

"Bang bang bang"

"Ouch! Grandpa, that hurts! Be gentle!"

With a grin, Xiao Lin delivered a triple punch to Xiao Yan's head.

After three punches, Xiao Yan had three bumps on his head, and even his eyes became clear.

Sure enough, his grandfather only had the power of Dou Emperor. He shouldn't have doubted his grandfather!

Therefore, Xiao Yan withstood three punches from his grandfather, the farmer, this time.

After beating Xiao Yan, Xiao Lin's anger subsided by half.

As for the remaining half...

"Hmph, it seems I've been too lenient with Xiao Yan! From now on, during your stay at the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, I, as your grandfather, will give you a proper welcome!"

With Xiao Lin making up his mind, Xiao Yan's "good days" began!
