Harness Cultivator

With the confirmation from Liu Zheng himself, Liu Wang no longer doubted that the person who beat him to a pulp was Madam Liu's son.

After all, Liu Ying was here, and she didn't deny Liu Zheng's claim.

'Damn it, I didn't kick an iron plate today, but a fucking diamond plate.' Liu Wang cursed inwardly as he knew he needed to find a solution fast.

Otherwise, he would not just be punished with confinement but he might also be disowned by the Liu Clan. 

"Do you have anything else to say, Liu Wang?" Liu Zheng asked. His aura was rising up, and it was clear that he was enraged by Liu Wang's action.

Liu Wang sweated nervously as he nodded his head.

"T-This junior understands his mistake," Liu Wang apologized as he cupped his fist toward Lee Tao and Tang Lingling.

"Please forgive my actions for today, Lee Tao, and this beauty." He added.

Although his apology sounded sincere, Lee Tao wasn't going to let him off the hook this easily.

If a simple apology is enough after creating this kind of a mess, then wouldn't everyone be troubling him the same thing?

"Mom, he injured me," Lee Tao acted like some pitiful kid as he pointed at the dirt in his face. 

Of course, the dirt was placed by him when Liu Zheng was scolding Liu Wang.

Meanwhile, Liu Wang held a dumbfounded expression as he stared at Lee Tao.

'Motherfucker, I didn't even touch you at all. It was you who suddenly came in and whooped my ass.' Liu Wang screamed inwardly. 

However, he didn't dare to utter any nonsense when he saw Liu Ying quickly dashed toward Lee Tao with a concerned look.

"Oh my heavens, are you alright son?" Liu Ying asked.

"It's painful, mom," Lee Tao showed a pitiful expression as some tears could be seen seeping out of his eyes.

"..."

'This Xiao Tao… His acting is really top-notch.' Liu Ying thought.

Despite that, Liu Ying kept her act up as she retrieved a small cloth from her spatial ring.

"Come here, let mother wipe the dirt away from you," Liu Ying said as she began wiping the dirt off.

Meanwhile, Liu Wang had already turned ashen white as he knew what kind of fate awaits him. 

Out of everyone he could have offended, he had to choose the one big boss that nobody dared to go against, Liu Ying. 

Not even his father, Liu Hu could do anything about this scenario if Liu Ying decreed a punishment on him.

"M-Madam Liu, I-I really didn't mean any harm," Liu Wang said nervously as he stepped forward and bowed his head down.

"P-Please forgive this ignorant junior and allow me a chance to repent." 

Liu Ying glanced at Liu Wang without speaking anything.

Instead, she made an eye signal toward Lee Tao. Her meaning was extremely clear.

His fate depends on Lee Tao's decision and not her.

As Liu Wang prepared to persuade Lee Tao for forgiveness, Lee Tao suddenly turned around as he wrapped his arms around Tang Lingling.

"I do not want to see him again." Lee Tao said.

And he continued, "If I hadn't arrived earlier then Tang Lingling would have been molested- worse, she could even be raped by him." 

Liu Ying nodded her head.

She then glanced at Liu Zheng with a smile on her face. 

"Little brother, I'm sure you know what to do now, right?" Liu Ying asked.

"Rest assured, elder sister." Liu Zheng patted his chest. "I'll make sure this can never occur again." 

Afterward, with a rumbling sound, Liu Zheng flashed as he appeared in front of Liu Wang.

Liu Wang had fear in his eyes as he quickly tried to dodge away from Liu Zheng.

Alas, it was a futile effort when Liu Zheng circulated an unknown amount of profound qi into his stomach.

A loud crackling sound was made and everyone knew what that meant.

Liu Wang had been crippled into a waste by Liu Zheng.

Liu Wang coughed up a mouthful of blood as he felt his profound qi dispersing from his body rapidly.

"N-No, this cannot be…" Liu Wang muttered in disbelief as he tried to circulate his profound qi, only to no avail. 

Meanwhile, Liu Zheng snorted coldly as he kicked Liu Wang toward the wall.

"Hmph, someone brings this trash to our prison cell and informs the third elder about what happened." Liu Zheng shouted aloud.

Within a few seconds, two servants appeared out of nowhere as they dragged the lifeless Liu Wang away from the scene.

"Heh, these servants are really smart…" Lee Tao chuckled softly when he saw how fast the servants had appeared and disappeared.

"That's how they survive in our clan. If it's not their business, they are better off in the shadows until they are being called for." Liu Ying giggled.

Sometime later, Liu Zheng walked toward Lee Tao and Tang Lingling as he cupped his fist.

"Apologies, nephew Lee Tao, it was due to my negligence that you have experienced something terrible." Liu Zheng apologized.

Lee Tao shook his head.

"It's not your fault since the clan is way too big for one person to manage everything completely. Just make sure how to distribute authority wisely and this incident might occur less." 

Liu Zheng was shocked for a moment.

'Elder Sister's son is indeed no joke…' Liu Zheng thought.

Although this incident had no relationship with him, he was merely apologizing as a show. 

However, he didn't expect to be lectured by Lee Tao on how to do things.

"I shall gladly take nephew Lee Tao's advice and work on my management," Liu Zheng said with a smile.

If it were anyone else, he might have thrashed them thoroughly, but this was Lee Tao, so he could only accept his advice.

Sometime later, Liu Zheng bid farewell as he didn't want to be a lightbulb to them.

"Anyway, Xiao Tao… What are you planning to do with Zuo Xiaoli?" Liu Ying asked him.

"She had sent an invitation for us to the Jade Restaurant tomorrow."
