Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Teaching Jing Yan a Lesson Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Teaching Jing Yan a Lesson After hearing Jing Yuqin’s account, Jing Chunyu felt as if all the pent-up anger in his chest was about to explode.

“Jing Yan, I swear by the Immortals!” Jing Chunyu was infuriated to the extreme, and despite the presence of his daughter and guard, he couldn’t hold back his curse.

“Whoosh!”

Without saying much to Jing Yuqin, Jing Chunyu instantly dashed out of his private courtyard.

“Tianlong!

Tianlong!” Jing Chunyu shouted loudly outside the private residence of Jing Tianlong.

Although Jing Tianlong had enrolled in one of the Three Major Academies, he still retained his private residence within the family.

He occasionally returned home from Red Lotus Academy and could stay there at any time.

“Grandfather?” Jing Tianlong, who was meditating and circulating his Primordial Energy, heard the furious shouts of his grandfather, Jing Chunyu.

Frowning slightly, he dashed out.

“Grandfather, what’s wrong?”

Even a fool could feel Jing Chunyu’s raging fury.

His elder eyes seemed to burn with flames.

“Tianlong, you must severely punish that Jing Yan!

That damn little brat deserves to die!” Jing Chunyu’s entire body trembled.

“Grandfather, why have you changed your mind?

Just a while ago, you were persuading me to give up, to forgive Jing Yan.

Even if I really had to fight Jing Yan, you told me not to go too hard.

Now, why…” Jing Tianlong was puzzled.

Not long ago, Jing Chengye, the Jing Family Patriarch, and others had sought Jing Chunyu, hoping he could restrain Jing Tianlong, considering Jing Tianlong was his direct grandson.

After giving it some thought, Jing Chunyu had discussed the matter with Jing Tianlong.

“That little brat is too detestable!

Too detestable!” Jing Chunyu repeated angrily, “Tianlong, you don’t know, just recently, that little brat beat up your aunt!

That damn scoundrel did it right in the West District Square, in front of countless outsiders!

It truly enrages me.”

Jing Chunyu was utterly humiliated.

His daughter was beaten up by Jing Yan in the street, looking like a mess.

Now, who knows what outsiders are saying.

Thinking of that scene, Jing Chunyu’s face burned with rage, as if Jing Yan had hit him instead.

Jing Yan had completely disregarded him.

“What?

That happened?”

“Jing Yan is courting death!” Tianlong’s aura also stiffened, his eyes blazing with sharp light.

“I’ll go check on my aunt!”

Jing Family Square!

As time passed, more and more battles erupted on the fifty platforms.

After all, this challenge phase only lasted three hours.

Anyone with a bit of strength and confidence would try their luck.

Regardless, after one failure, they could try twice more.

If they failed twice, they could challenge three or four times.

Everyone had many opportunities.

However, on the platform where Jing Yan was, no one had come forward to challenge him so far.

Jing Yan was happy to relax, slightly squinting and meditating to refresh his spirit.

Now that the challenge phase had lasted for over an hour and had slightly more than an hour to go, he could soon proceed to the finals.

On the high platform in the square, the Clan Leader Jing Chengye and others were speculating.

“What’s wrong with the Great Elder?”

“He just left for a moment, and when he came back, his face was terrifying, as if he was going to devour someone.”

“What in the world happened?”

Jing Chengye and others were speculating about what had incensed Jing Chunyu so greatly.

Not just the Jing Family members, but even outsiders wore expressions laden with meaning.

“Great Elder, what happened?”

Fifth Elder Jing Yuxiang quietly approached Jing Chunyu and asked in a low voice.

Among the Jing Family Elders, Jing Yuxiang had a very close relationship with Jing Chunyu.

These two always moved together in the Elder Council, with Jing Yuxiang following Jing Chunyu’s lead.

Seeing Jing Chunyu’s grim expression, Jing Yuxiang naturally felt concerned and inquired.

Jing Chunyu glanced at Jing Yuxiang, pondered for a moment, and reluctantly spoke.

He knew he couldn’t keep it a secret for much longer.

Soon, not only the Clan Leader and others would know, but even the common descendants of the family would hear of it.

It simply couldn’t be kept hidden.

The reason the news hadn’t spread in the Jing Family yet was that there weren’t many Jing Family members in the workshop that morning; most were at the square.

Only the workshop manager and a few guards were present.

But the incident couldn’t be hidden forever, too many outsiders had seen it.

Though it wasn’t widely known within the Jing Family yet, it was definitely spreading outside.

“Yuqin was beaten by Jing Yan!” After a moment of silence, Jing Chunyu finally spoke.

“What?” Jing Yuxiang was taken aback.

Jing Chengye and others also focused their gaze when they heard this.

Just now, when Jing Chunyu’s personal guard mentioned that Jing Yuqin had been humiliated by Jing Yan, they were still wondering if it was that kind of situation, but it turned out Jing Yan had physically assaulted Jing Yuqin.

“This damn little brat, showing no respect for his elders—absolutely lawless!” Jing Yuxiang immediately expressed his displeasure, vocally cursing loudly.

Jing Tianying and others frowned but remained silent.

“There might be some misunderstanding in this.

Jing Yan wouldn’t be so reckless,” stated Jing Chengye as the Clan Leader, feeling compelled to speak.

“Hmph, misunderstanding?

Ha, misunderstanding!” Jing Chunyu sneered continuously.

Seeing this situation, Jing Yuxiang felt he needed to make a gesture.

He always followed Jing Chunyu’s lead; if he didn’t do something now, would Jing Chunyu be dissatisfied with him?

He thought for a moment.

“Jing Yan, too arrogant!” Jing Yuxiang declared, then leapt from the high platform.

Among the more than a thousand Jing Family Disciples participating in the grand family competition challenge phase in the square, there was one who had not moved since the challenge began.

He stood there, his presence overpowering, such that the surrounding Jing Family Disciples dared not approach.

This disciple, Jing Shaohe, was also one of the Jing Family’s most outstanding young descendants.

Furthermore, he was the grandson of Fifth Elder Jing Yuxiang.

Jing Shaohe was very proud and extremely arrogant.

Of course, his strength was also formidable, making him one of the ten Martial Artists of the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven participating in this competition.

“Shaohe!”

Jing Yuxiang descended from the high platform and approached Jing Shaohe.

“Grandfather, is there something?” Jing Shaohe shifted his gaze towards Jing Yuxiang, inquiring.

Typically, Jing Shaohe wouldn’t bother with ordinary family disciples.

Because of this known personality, no one approached him.

However, he certainly couldn’t ignore his own grandfather.

“Yes, there’s something,” Jing Yuxiang nodded.

“This morning, the Great Elder’s daughter, Jing Yuqin, was beaten by Jing Yan.

You know how close I am with the Great Elder, so I must do something.”

“Grandfather, do you mean for me to deal with Jing Yan?” Jing Shaohe’s eyes slightly narrowed as he looked towards the platform where Jing Yan was.
