"What else? Which Elder Wu did you think it was?" Lin Tiannan asked in return.
Hearing this, Li Jianheng felt entirely unwell. His voice began to tremble slightly, "Alright, Elder Lin, I know how to handle it."
Shortly after hanging up the phone, Li Jianheng's heart remained difficult to calm down.
He really couldn't imagine why a young man could possess such power.
Just as he was about to call his son Li Jiaquan, he saw another unfamiliar number calling in.
When he saw that the caller ID showed it was from Kyoto, Li Jianheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and all sorts of bad feelings surged into his mind.
"Hello, this is Li Jianheng."
He swallowed hard, his voice slightly trembling, and placed the phone by his ear.
"It's me."
A somewhat deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
Upon hearing this voice, Li Jianheng couldn't sit still anymore.
His brain felt like it had just exploded with a boom. "El... Elder Wu... do you have any instructions..."
Before he could finish, Elder Wu's voice came through the phone again, "Your son offended someone he shouldn't have. That person is my senior. You'd better resolve this quickly, so I don't have to make a personal trip to Dan Province."
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Jianheng was completely dumbfounded.
Senior?
The weight of this word coming from Lin Tiannan's mouth compared to Elder Wu's mouth was completely different.
But how could this be possible?
Who was Elder Wu?
The Sovereign of Weixing!
As the top official of Dan Province, Li Jianheng naturally knew that this entity was no ordinary person, but a cultivator, the strongest human in this world.
But now, Elder Wu actually called that Young Master Qin his senior!
If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, Li Jianheng wouldn't have believed this was true even if he were beaten to death.
"I, I... Elder Wu... I understand... I will handle it immediately!"
Elder Wu said, "After you've handled it, give me a call. Also, write a report and send it to me before tomorrow."
With Weixing's technology, even if Elder Wu rushed over from Kyoto, it would take him at most half an hour to arrive.
But recently, he had been incredibly busy. If it weren't for that, he would have immediately set off to handle it personally the moment he received Lin Tiannan's call.
It was also because Qin Ning had specifically instructed him to collect rough stones and jade artifacts from all over the country. For the past few days, Elder Wu had been personally attending to this matter, constantly busy with it.
Soon, after hanging up the phone, Li Jianheng's hands were trembling.
He shakily held his phone, searched for his son Li Jiaquan's number, and dialed it directly.
"Dad, how is it..."
At this moment, Li Jiaquan was sitting on the deck with a group of young masters, wiping the bruises on his face with a cotton swab. Upon answering the phone, he couldn't wait to ask.
"Are you still on the ship?"
Li Jianheng's voice came from the phone, and because it was on speaker, everyone heard it.
"Yes, the ship has already set sail. Could I jump off and swim back?" Li Jiaquan was puzzled.
"Good that you are."
Li Jianheng took a deep breath and continued, "Now, immediately, right this second, go kneel down and apologize to Young Master Qin. If you don't get his forgiveness today, don't come back. Jump into the sea and feed the sharks yourself, and just pretend I never had you as a son."
Hearing this, Li Jiaquan was completely stunned. "Dad, what are you saying? Me? Go apologize?"
"Do you think your old man is joking with you?"
Li Jianheng said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and go, did you hear me?! Otherwise, not only will I not be able to save you, but your old man will also be stripped of several layers of skin!"
"Dad, what exactly is going on?" Li Jiaquan frowned deeply, seemingly realizing something.
Could it be that Young Master Qin's background was not simple?
Was he some young master from Kyoto?
But even so, as the top official of Dan Province, there was no need for his father Li Jianheng to be this terrified, right?
"The Sovereign just called me personally and strictly warned me that Young Master Qin is his senior. Do you understand the meaning of this sentence?"
"The Sovereign? Senior?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone on the deck was shocked.
They never could have imagined that this matter had actually alarmed the Sovereign!
Furthermore, the Sovereign had personally called Li Jianheng and warned him that Young Master Qin was his senior?
How could this be possible?
A young man was actually the Sovereign's senior?
Was he dreaming?
Or did he hear it wrong?
"Cut the crap! Why aren't you going right now?!" Li Jianheng's furious roar came from the other end of the phone.
"Yes... I, I... I'll go right now!"
Li Jiaquan finally realized the severity of the situation and didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest.
Soon, after hanging up the phone, he hurriedly led the crowd on the deck, stumbling and crawling, as they rushed toward the private room below.
Arriving at the door of the private room, everyone felt their legs go weak, lacking even the courage to knock on the door.
At this moment, He Mingyun happened to walk out of the private room.
"Young Master Li, why are you here?"
He Mingyun was taken aback. Looking at their bruised and swollen faces, he spoke again, "There is a medical kit on the ship. Did you guys go get it?"
"We used it."
Li Jiaquan nodded, and then hurriedly asked, "Young Master He, um... has Young Master Qin's anger subsided by now? If I go in now, will I be interrupting?"
"What do you mean?"
Hearing this, He Mingyun was momentarily stunned. He had been staying in the private room just now and was completely unaware of Li Jianheng's phone call on the deck.
From He Mingyun's perspective, the current Li Jiaquan should be like an enraged tiger.
But why was his attitude right now like that of a frightened kitten?
And Young Master Qin?
What did this mean?
Why was the dignified son of the top official of Dan Province addressing him like that too?
Although he was extremely puzzled in his heart, He Mingyun only needed to think for a moment to roughly understand what had happened.
This must definitely be related to the phone call Lin Yuting made just now!
Thinking of this, he immediately felt astonished.
It wasn't hard to guess that the background of Qin Ning and his group was probably much more terrifying than he had imagined.
Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for Li Jiaquan to be scared to such a degree.
No wonder his cousin was sucking up to them so much, to the point where he hadn't even paid attention to Li Jiaquan for the two days he'd been in Lingyang City. It turned out he had latched onto a true powerhouse?
Thinking like this, He Mingyun said, "You guys wait, I'll go in and ask."
After speaking, he turned around and returned to the private room.
Coming before Qin Ning, the look in He Mingyun's eyes when looking at him was already vastly different from before, now holding a sense of dread and respect. He spoke, "Young Master Qin... Li Jiaquan and the others are outside the door. They probably want to come over and apologize to you."
"Then let them in," Qin Ning said calmly.
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do?

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
