Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

Cao Xiong earnestly tried to persuade, "Elder Luo, it's not that I want to say this, but in this world, if you don't have a high cultivation level to rely on, it's not enough; being handsome can't be the support for survival here, you still need to work harder."

Luo Tiance's eyes met his.

He said calmly,

"Even if my grandson has nothing, he will always have his grandfather standing behind him."

Cao Xiong was immediately choked up, unable to say a word.

He silently said to himself,

You're awesome! You make complete sense!!

The image of Luo Tiance as a grandson-protecting fanatic had already deeply implanted itself in the hearts of Cao Xiong and the others.

Play all you want, joke all you want, but don't mess with Elder Luo's grandson; otherwise, the State-Defending Divine Sword wouldn't mind creating a two-meter long small opening in your body.

At this moment, Zhao Yingtian said with surprise, "Elder Luo, didn't you say that your grandson's vision of heaven and earth was real back then, with such a shocking and earth-shattering phenomenon, even without cultivation he certainly wouldn't be just an ordinary person."

Zhu Wushi secretly gave Zhao Yingtian a thumbs-up.

Boy, you really know how to bring up the touchiest subjects; you've got guts.

Nevertheless, Zhao Yingtian still remembered how Luo Tiance boasted about his grandson having the demeanor of someone from heaven, and how he was heavily rebutted; now, he naturally wanted to take the opportunity to rightfully turn the tables.

Luo Tiance wasn't angry either; as a person in power, how could he lack such composure.

"My grandson's phenomenon was absolutely not falsified."

"It's just that he has no interest in cultivating for now. Should he one day embark on the path of cultivation, he will undoubtedly break through all obstacles like a bamboo..."

Everyone chuckled, but said no more.

In their hearts, most believed that Luo Tiance was making a face-saving excuse, but they had no intention of exposing him.

However, deep down they still felt a hint of pride.

After all, they had been suppressed by Luo Tiance their whole lives and could barely catch a breath; now that the younger generations of their families were rising, if they could surpass Elder Luo's grandson, it would indeed bring them some joy.

Of course, Luo Tiance could see through the thoughts of the crowd.

But he didn't say much more.

After all, his grandson's lack of cultivation was an undeniable fact.

"By the way."

"Tonight, my grandson caught two spies."

"From both your Cao and Li families."

Cao Xiong and the Head of the Li Family's expressions tightened.

"Could there have been some misunderstanding?"

Luo Tiance snorted coldly, "Don't try to play dumb with me here."

"This is your only warning."

"If you dare come to my turf to gather information again, especially targeting my grandson,

"You will die."

Cao Xiong and the Head of the Li Family broke out into a cold sweat.

They nodded in agreement.

"Good."

"Understood."

Luo Tiance, without looking elsewhere, said, "If there's nothing else, then the meeting is dismissed."

"Yes."

The virtual images in the room vanished, leaving only Luo Tiance alone.

"Thud—"

He walked step by step towards the window, looking out into the night, his gaze distant...

Elsewhere, at the Qi Family Villa.

"Crack!!"

A luxurious wine glass was flung out, shattering into pieces.

"Aah!!!"

"Dammit, someone killed my brother, I want you dead!!"

A young man with a sinister face and twisted expression, full of brutal rage, he was Qi Sheng's brother, the Eldest Young Master of Qi Family, Qi Tianlin.

Unlike the ignorant Qi Sheng, Qi Tianlin possessed extraordinary talent and had already made a name for himself in the base city.

"Damn it."

"I want revenge, I want revenge!"

"Father, my brother was killed. Why are you not reacting."

He clenched his teeth tightly, looking towards the other side.

On the genuine leather sofa opposite, sat a middle-aged man with a gloomy complexion, bearing a strong resemblance to both Qi Sheng and Qi Tianlin.

"Father, please say something!"

Qi Tianlin was furious to the point of death.

"Your son was killed like this, no one is showing any respect for your dignity; I can't swallow this anger, I must seek justice for my brother!"

With that, he rushed towards the door, his eyes red with madness.

The middle-aged man spoke with a raspy voice:

"Get back here!"

Qi Tianlin braked sharply, freezing in place at the door.

"Father, are you coming with me or not!"

"Get back here!!" The middle-aged man's voice grew more emphatic, radiating an unquestionable authority.

Qi Tianlin's eyes briefly flashed brutally as he quickly returned.

The middle-aged man rasped, "Do you want to go and get yourself killed?"

"I have already lost one son, do you want me to lose another?"

Qi Tianlin shouted angrily:

"Father, I know the Luo Family is powerful, but should they really bully us to this extent?"

"\"Don't they give you any face at all?\"

\"What's wrong with my brother bullying two lowly peasants? How many peasants has our Qi Family protected over the years?\"

The middle-aged man countered, \"I ask you, if Luo Family clearly wants to bully you, what can you do about it?\"

\"What can you do if he bullies you?\"

\"Can you handle Luo Tiance, or can I?\"

Hearing this name, Qi Tianlin fell silent.

The middle-aged man gave a self-deprecating smile.

\"Don't think that just because I, Qi Zhenwei, am the City Guarding Grand Commandant with some influence, I can compare with anyone.\"

\"This time your brother has oppressed the grandson of Luo Tiance, even bullying the head of the Da Xia Godson; it's his own fault for lacking vision.\"

\"Damned Da Xia Godson, I refuse to accept this!\" Qi Tianlin roared lowly. He and Qi Sheng shared a strong brotherly bond and he always valued this younger brother the most.

His mother had died after giving birth to Qi Sheng, so he had poured all his feelings for his mother into his brother.

The middle-aged man suddenly stood up, emitting a powerful aura that shook Qi Tianlin to his core.

\"You have to accept it, even if you don't want to.\"

\"Your brother might bully the commoners relying on his power, but he should prepare to be oppressed by an even greater force one day.\"

\"Has he not done enough despicable things over the years? I have always turned a blind eye and cleaned up his mess, but this time, he has really kicked an iron plate.\"

Qi Tianlin looked incredulously at his father, who had always been domineering.

\"Are we just going to let this go? Swallow this humiliation?\"

Qi Zhenwei asked in response:

\"What else?\"

\"Do you want to die alone, or do you want our whole family to accompany him in death?\"

Qi Tianlin clenched his teeth so hard that blood seeped out from his gums, trickling down his lips.

His eyes were filled with bloodshot veins.

\"Even if my brother is at fault, it's not a crime deserving death. That kid deserves to die!\"

\"I refuse to accept this, I want him to accompany my brother in death!\"

\"Slap!\"

The crisp sound echoed.

Qi Tianlin's eyes were somewhat dull as he covered his face.

\"Father, you hit me?\"

The middle-aged man shook his head in disappointment.

\"Tianlin, I've always thought you were an ambitious child and treated you as my successor.\"

\"You've disappointed me greatly this time.\"

\"To achieve great things, one must hide one's thoughts well, understand the situation, and not let emotions cloud your judgment.\"

\"Now with the Luo Family at the zenith of power, what do you have to fight them with?\"

Qi Tianlin listened dumbfoundedly to the lesson, and suddenly, a light sparked in his eyes, and he had a moment of clarity.

\"Father, I understand now.\"

\"A gentleman's revenge is not too late even if it takes ten years.\"

The middle-aged man shook his head.

\"Don't talk nonsense, I've never taught you such things.\"

\"Get out, if you want to die now, I won't stop you. Just consider that I will no longer have you as a son in the future.\"

\"Understood, Father.\"

Qi Tianlin regained his composure, but his fists were clenched even tighter.

After Qi Tianlin left the living room, the middle-aged man picked up the teacup and drank water, and as he looked down, the water in the teacup trembled.

A mist seemed to cover his eyes.

But it soon dissipated quickly.

\"Someone!\"

\"Master, I am here!\"

An old man resembling a steward walked in from outside, his appearance gloomy and hawk-like.

\"Draft a notice overnight and issue it in the name of the Qi Family.\"

\"Qi Sheng was stubborn and bullied the common people, defied his brother and father, and never heeded warnings. The Divine Child, acting for Heaven, eliminated this disgrace, which is fortunate and commendable! The Divine Child personally removed this disgraceful scourge, and we, the whole Qi Family, are immensely grateful.\"

The steward's whole body trembled violently.

He lifted his head.

His old eyes widened, filled with a complex expression.

\"Didn't understand?\"

\"Do you need me to repeat it?\"

The steward shook his head.

\"No!\"

\"No need.\"

\"I will handle it immediately.\"

With that, he left quickly, not daring to linger, finding even breathing difficult.

...

In the central room of the luxurious Luo Family Mansion.

The instigator of it all, Luo Yu, lay comfortably on the bed with his eyes closed, in a dream.

In the space of the Azure Stone Lotus, in the misty sky above, hung hundreds of sun-like golden orbs, each of a distinctly different attribute.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, his breath surging and an indescribable Dao Yun flowing around him.

The shadow of the Green Ox Elder stood by, his eyes holding expectation as he whispered softly.

\"Today is the day!\"
