God! ...

Chapter 236 One is a demonstration, the other is an attempt to curry favor.

Everyone eagerly awaited.

Everyone wanted to know if the wooden knife would be willing to do that.

Jiang Hai stood tall and proud, exuding an air of authority.

At first glance, Jiang Hai's demeanor and temperament were completely different from the group of people below, and many people felt that Jiang Hai might finally get what he wanted today.

However, at that moment, no echo came from inside the manor for a long time.

Jiang Hai's words had gone unanswered, and Jiang Yingying frowned slightly at this moment, then said politely, "Patriarch Jiang, our patriarch has already said that he will not see anyone. Please leave."

Jiang Hai ignored him and just stared straight at the manor in front of him.

On the contrary, his attendant was unhappy. She was a young woman who appeared in front of him almost instantly after Jiang Yingying finished speaking.

With his nostrils flared and utterly arrogant, he said, "Get out of here! What are you doing, a mere butler, acting all high and mighty? Don't you know your place?"

After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but give her a push.

Jiang Yingying staggered backward, her face alternating between pale and flushed, completely unprepared for this turn of events.

You should know that since she became the housekeeper of Daze Lake Manor, she has rarely experienced such things, whether before Ye Feng came or now.

Almost everyone treats him with great courtesy, a situation rarely seen today.

Especially after Ye Feng moved in, everyone became even more polite to him.

Seeing the slight resentment on Jiang Yingying's face, the woman sneered and shouted, "What are you looking at? You're not convinced, are you!"

"I'm telling you, if you look at me like that again, I'll gouge your eyes out! You have no manners at all!"

"Get this straight, in Zhonghai, our Jiang family is the only ones who matter. The fact that he's here is out of respect for Mu Dao. To put it bluntly, he's just a Grandmaster. Do you think my Jiang family doesn't have any Grandmasters?"

The woman's words grew increasingly heated and arrogant.

The arrogance of the Jiang family erupted at this moment, especially when facing someone powerless and without influence; it was a complete and utter defeat.

The group of onlookers dared not utter a single word.

Everyone knew that the Jiang family was a true behemoth, not one they could afford to offend.

If you want to watch the show, then just watch it properly. Don't say a single unnecessary word, and don't even try to chime in—you can't help anyway.

Furthermore, Jiang Hai, who was standing still, was not unaware of the special nature of this occasion.

This wooden swordsman, who slaughtered members of the Baolong clan and emerged unscathed, is a Grandmaster and deserves respect. However, the fact that the Jiang family members are now humiliating the wooden swordsman's steward is an act of disrespect.

However, Jiang Hai did not choose to speak out to stop it, but instead tacitly approved of this behavior.

This simple act reveals a signal: the Jiang family has psychologically gained the upper hand and has never regarded the wooden sword as something superior to them, even though he is a grandmaster.

Even if a Grandmaster arrives at the Jiang family, he is still just a Grandmaster. This confidence comes from the Jiang family's deep-rooted resources!

This is also their attitude!

Everyone understood this point, which is why top-tier wealthy families are the complete opposite of ordinary families.

One is a demonstration, the other is an attempt to curry favor.

Jiang Yingying felt incredibly wronged, but her professional demeanor prevented her from showing any abnormality, though her heart ached with a bitter taste.

Just as she was at her wit's end and about to return to the manor to inform Ye Feng, a thunderous, powerful voice came from inside the manor, accompanied by an unparalleled thrust of true energy.

"roll!"

As the sound faded, the thrust surged like a tidal wave.

Jiang Hai, who was standing at the very front, was shaken and staggered back several steps. As for the woman who had been spouting nonsense and talking incessantly, she was shaken so badly that blood flowed from her mouth and nose, and she was thrown over and crashed heavily to the ground.

She looked terrified, her whole body was covered in cold sweat, and she felt as if she had been pulled back from the brink of death.

The onlookers were all dumbfounded. Could this be the power of a Grandmaster?

Such power can be unleashed with just one sentence.

If such a person were to wield power, how terrifying would that be?

At this moment, everyone knew that this wooden swordsman was no pushover, and was equally formidable even when facing the Jiang family!

Many people even felt a little fortunate because of this. Although they were not well received by the wooden sword, at least they were not told to get lost. Although the Jiang family was a wealthy family, they were insulted in front of everyone, which clearly showed the difference in their status.

Of course, there are also those who take a different approach.

Ignoring all that, he braced himself and stepped forward, intending to help the woman on the ground up.

After all, it's alright if we don't see the wooden sword; this is a way to improve relations with the Jiang family.

That's just how the world is these days; perhaps a seemingly insignificant detail can determine the course of one's life.

Putting those people aside, the faces of the Long family members were extremely grim at this moment.

Jiang Hai, in particular, had a face so dark it was almost dripping with water. He never imagined it would end like this. How could this wooden knife be so arrogant?

As for Yang Tangfeng, he let it go, since the other party's identity and status were obvious, and he naturally dared not have any objections.

But what exactly is this wooden knife in front of me?

He's just a Grandmaster of Transformation Realm. Even a Grandmaster in Zhonghai can't disrespect the Jiang family!

Jiang Hai took a deep breath and spoke again, his words filled with barely suppressed anger, "Wooden Knife, we both live in Zhonghai, we're practically neighbors, why are you acting like this today?"

"Is my Jiang family so insignificant that we can't even gain the slightest bit of face?"

These words were heard again inside the manor.

After a few seconds of silence in the manor, an extremely cold voice rang out again.

"Get out of here or you'll die!"

These words, laced with a subtle killing intent, caused everyone present to change their expressions; it was, in essence, a blatant threat.

This manor owner, Mu Dao, is truly determined to go against the Jiang family!

Think about it carefully, how many people in the entire Zhonghai would dare to speak to the Jiang family like that, let alone pose a threat? This requires not only strength, but unparalleled strength.

There is only one consequence for provoking the Jiang family!

dead!

The crowd was incredulous, and Qin Yao, standing among them, frowned slightly.

Firstly, they were somewhat incredulous at the result, since very few people dared to provoke the Jiang family.

Besides that, she felt that the voice she had just heard sounded familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

But this was clearly her first time at Daze Lake Manor, and she had never even seen the wooden sword before, so why did she have such a strange feeling?

Thinking of this, Qin Yao couldn't help but turn to look at Shen Lang, asking with some puzzlement, "Don't you feel like something's off?"

"That wooden swordsman's voice sounded like Ye Feng's. Do you think the manor owner might be...?"
