Hidden Master: starting by canceling ten marriage proposals

"I'm asking you once again, have you stopped listening to your grandfather?"

Yin Tian's voice grew even colder.

He had a rather favorable impression of Old Mr. Du.

Although that old man was somewhat stubborn, he was definitely not a bad person.

It was precisely because of Old Mr. Du that Yin Tian had tolerated Du Hongtao shouting in front of him.

Upon hearing Yin Tian's words, Du Hongtao's face twisted into a ferocious expression, "So what if you only saved my grandfather once, do you really think you're a benefactor to the Du Family?"

"The Du Family respects you, they call you a benefactor; they look down on you, what are you worth then!"

He pulled out a walkie-talkie from his pocket with a grim smile on his face, looking at Yin Tian, "Now, I'll give you a chance. Crawl over here on your knees, and I might spare your life."

"Otherwise, do you believe I can have you chopped to death by random knives at any moment?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Tian also realized what was going on.

All those hundreds of gazes hidden within the estate belonged to Du Hongtao's arrangements.

As the younger brother of the Du Family Master, having that kind of authority was not entirely unreasonable.

"I really want to know what you're going to tell your grandfather when you meet him in the future about today's affair."

Yin Tian spoke indifferently.

"Do you think my grandpa would care about a dead man to the extent of quibbling with me?"

Du Hongtao sneered, "At most I'll pick out a good gravesite for you after a while for a grand burial, give you a symbolic punishment, and that'll be about it."

"Yin Tian, man oh man, you really shouldn't overestimate yourself, you might think you're important, but to others, you might just be a fart!"

Yin Tian slowly nodded, "Alright then, I understand now."

Then he looked at the walkie-talkie in Du Hongtao's hand, "Hand over your men, let me have a look."

Du Hongtao saw Yin Tian acting fearless and his face grew uglier, "Fine! You made me do this!"

He turned on the walkie-talkie and shouted into the mic with a cold voice, "All of you, come out!"

Rustle rustle rustle...

The sound of static came from the walkie-talkie, followed by a raspy voice, "Master, all personnel have been dealt with."

Master?

Du Hongtao was taken aback, obviously not expecting such a response.

In the Du Family, everyone else called him Mr. Du; no one had ever called him 'Master' before...

And what did he mean by 'all personnel have been dealt with'? He hadn't ordered them to deal with anyone...

"Don't you understand my orders? Come here, gather around me!"

Du Hongtao continued to roar into the walkie-talkie, "Everyone, come here within three minutes, or else..."

He was in mid-speech when a hand snatched the walkie-talkie straight out of his hands.

The one who grabbed the walkie-talkie was Yin Tian.

"You..."

Du Hongtao was about to explode, but Yin Tian gave him a cold glance.

At that moment, Du Hongtao felt a chill run through his entire body, unable to utter a single word!

But Yin Tian opened the walkie-talkie and said calmly, "Come here."

Before he could finish his sentence, those Shadow Palace Assassins hidden in the shadows were quickly approaching.

Hundreds of people.

All dressed in black!

Their murderous aura was chilling, making everyone present shudder!

"Are these... your people?"

Du Hongtao asked in shock, then suddenly realized, "Where are my people? Where have they all gone?"

Yin Tian looked at a few of the Heaven-level Assassins among the hundreds of Shadow Palace Assassins.

"Reporting to Master, we did not kill anyone, we just knocked them out," said a Heaven-level Assassin respectfully.

Yin Tian nodded, then turned to Du Hongtao, "Now, is there anything you'd like to say?"

"How is this possible... How could you have such power!"

Du Hongtao mumbled in shock, clearly stunned by the scene before him and the news he had just heard.

Yin Tian bent down, picking up the fallen belt that Du Hongtao had dropped, "You seem to really enjoy this, so let's play a bit."

Du Hongtao shuddered, a look of terror flashing in his eyes.

He was about to run away when a shadow landed on his back.

Slap!

A crisp sound rang out, and Du Hongtao's clothes were torn open by the belt!

Du Hongtao screamed miserably, collapsing to the ground.

Yin Tian stepped forward, one foot stepping on Du Hongtao, his right hand continuously wielding the belt in his hand.

Slap slap slap slap...

Du Hongtao let out a scream like that of a slaughtered pig.

Yet there was not a hint of pity in Yin Tian's eyes as he whipped Du Hongtao again and again.

Ten minutes!

Yin Tian whipped him for a full ten minutes!

Du Hongtao's back was skinless, the blood was streaming, and the sight was utterly pitiable.

Seeing Du Hongtao was beaten to the brink of life, Yin Tian bent down, took out a cell phone from Du Hongtao's pocket, unlocked it, and dialed Old Mr. Du's number.

"Hello, Hongtao, are you..."

Old Mr. Du's voice had just come through when Yin Tian cut in, "It's me."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone.

After a while, "My friend, did Du Hongtao provoke you?"

"Mhm."

"Teach him a lesson as you see fit, don't spare my feelings."

"Mhm..."

Yin Tian looked down at Du Hongtao, who had passed out.

"I've already taught him a lesson."
