Chapter 388

~5 min read 885 words

After Jiang Li had been gone for a long time, Long Tian finally rose, but the look of utter sincerity on his face lingered for a long while before fading, replaced by a face full of sighs.

Jiang Li had just left.

The butler rushed into the reception hall.

"Master—something terrible has happened!"

"What is it, why such a frantic state?" Long Tian said.

"Young Master has been severely injured and is on the brink of death; the servants have carried him back!" the butler said.

"Hmph—"

"With half of Wang Cheng under my control in Norland, who dares to be so bold!"

Long Tian followed the butler to the courtyard, and upon seeing Long Dasa's injuries, his face instantly twisted into a grotesque expression.

"Father—"

"Father—save me, avenge me!"

Upon seeing his father come out, Long Dasa immediately began to wail, and his crying echoed throughout the entire courtyard.

Long Tian's hands trembled slightly as he squatted down and pulled up Long Dasa's pants—what he saw inside was a mess of flesh and blood, completely stripped clean...

"Dasa—who, who has harmed you to this extent?" Long Tian said in a trembling voice.

Long Dasa, filled with boundless hatred, his eyes bloodshot, said, "It was a red-haired woman and another..."

Long Dasa told Long Tian every single detail of everything that had happened at the Norland Wang Cheng Grand Hotel.

And Long Tian, who had been trembling all over, began to shake even more violently.

"Father! This is truly intolerable! Even if it is the daughter of the Right Minister, she should not have harmed her child so cruelly!"

Long Dasa had been observing Long Tian's emotional fluctuations.

Seeing Long Tian's body tremble even more violently, he thought that the Left Minister Long Tian had truly lost his temper.

Long Tian stood there for a while, then took a bottle of medicine out of his pocket.

"Child, you will be fine. This bottle of golden wound medicine was bestowed by the first King of Norland, my lord! It has the power to bring the dead back to life and make flesh grow on white bones! I will apply it for you."

"Father!"

Long Tian suddenly became calm in expression; he poured the medicine from the bottle onto Long Dasa's wound, and a wisp of green smoke rose up.

"Ah!"

As the powder was poured onto Long Dasa's wound, Long Dasa let out a scream like a slaughtered pig.

But Long Tian seemed unaware—because the green smoke rising from Long Dasa's wound made his face change instantly!

There was even a trace of fear, about three-tenths of it.

"Green smoke curling straight up to the clouds..."

"Father—I want revenge!"

Long Dasa, who had not yet fainted, said.

"Slap!"

Long Tian turned and slapped him across the face.

"Shut up!"

This slap knocked Long Dasa completely dazed.

Long Dasa was the only son of the Left Minister Long Tian; since childhood, not even a single finger had been laid on him.

But why was he so angry today...

"Do you know how great a disaster you have caused?" Long Tian said.

"Father—I—"

Long Dasa covered his face, as if he had just met Long Tian for the first time.

But thinking about it, he had almost done that to the Right Minister's daughter, and he felt that this matter seemed a bit wrong too.

Moreover, after leaving the Right Minister's residence, his men had investigated thoroughly: the Right Minister indeed had three sons, but also a legitimate only daughter, not yet twenty years old today, who was usually treated like a precious treasure; she was just quite low-key in daily life, so he had never heard of her before. At that time, he already felt some regret, and now that his own father was losing his temper, he felt even more uncertain in his heart.

"Dasa? Although the Right Minister and your father are both ministers in the court, his true strength is actually even greater than your father's. Who else could you have harmed, but his daughter???"

Long Tian turned around to hide the terror on his face.

Yes, it was terror.

From Long Dasa's description, he had already guessed who that young man was.

Undoubtedly, it was Jiang Li, who had just left.

Although Jiang Li's strength is very weak now, that is only for now.

"Lance? Lance, let you be eaten to death, huh?"

"Could that green smoke be the Imperial..."

Long Tian did not dare to think any further.

He calmed himself for a while, then turned and said, "This matter does not need your concern; furthermore, no act of retaliation is permitted. Once I find out, I will personally break your legs!"

"And remember—that young man must not be provoked either! All I can tell you is that the young man's identity is also very formidable—do not provoke him!"

"Father—who is that young man? I think he is just—"

"Slap!"

Before Long Dasa could finish speaking, he received another slap.

"I said, that young man is not someone you can provoke. I do not wish to say it a second time, do you understand?"

Long Tian released killing intent from his body, looking at the pale-faced Long Dasa and said, "I will go personally to apologize to the Right Minister right now!"
