Return of the Celestial King

The Liu Family’s villa estate.

The moment Liu Tao returned to the family grounds, his face twisted with rage, he stormed madly toward the back courtyard.

When he arrived, the old butler stared at him in surprise, unable to comprehend what he was doing.

Liu Tao glared at a mysterious spot in the back courtyard, a vicious glint in his eyes.

He held out his hand to the old butler and demanded:

”Give me the key! Now!”

The old butler clutched the key tightly, his face a mask of confusion.

”Young Master, what are you planning to do?”

This key was of the utmost importance; the old butler would never hand it over to Liu Tao so easily.

More importantly, Liu Tao was clearly in a very unstable state of mind. Under such circumstances, giving him the key was even more out of the question.

Liu Tao gritted his teeth in hatred and huffed:

”I’m going to release the Four Great Vajras and have them accompany me to Celestial South Province to kill!”

Hearing this, the old butler turned pale with fright.

He quickly pressed,

”Young Master, what in the world is going on?”

The Four Great Vajras were no ordinary figures. The consequences of releasing them would be unimaginable, so the old butler had to get to the bottom of this.

Liu Tao said coldly:

”I’m taking them to get my revenge! I’ve never been trampled on like that in my entire life. How can I be at peace until I’ve vented this anger?”

The memory of being crushed under Qin Tuo’s foot, forced to grovel and beg for mercy, made Liu Tao’s heart feel as if it were bleeding.

He thought of nothing but killing Qin Tuo, but he also knew it was utterly impossible with his own strength. He could only rely on the Four Great Vajras.

However, the old butler took a deep breath and said gravely, ”Young Master, I cannot give you this key!”

Liu Tao’s face instantly flushed red with rage.

”Are even you going to defy me?”

The old butler shook his head and said cautiously, ”Young Master, you misunderstand. Only the Patriarch can control the minds of the Four Great Vajras. If you release them, they might destroy our entire Liu Family before you even get your revenge.”

As the old butler spoke, a look of deep fear appeared in his eyes.

The memory of the terrifying destructive power the Four Great Vajras had once displayed still made his skin crawl.

And most importantly, the Liu Family’s Patriarch was currently in seclusion. That made it even more impossible for the old butler to hand over the key.

”Are you sure you won’t give me the key?”

Liu Tao slowly narrowed his eyes, a cold aura emanating from him.

The old butler nodded and said helplessly, ”Young Master, I really can’t give you the key. Please don’t force my hand.”

Liu Tao nodded repeatedly, a cold sneer on his face.

The next moment, he lunged forward like a madman, trying to snatch the key!

”Young Master, you mustn’t!”

The old butler grew anxious. Although he had some martial skills, he didn’t dare retaliate due to Liu Tao’s status.

The old butler’s heart burned with anxiety. At the thought of what would happen if Liu Tao actually released the Four Great Vajras, he felt an urge to scream for help.

However, just as Liu Tao was about to succeed, a middle-aged man in a long robe appeared in the back courtyard.

This was none other than Liu Tao’s second uncle, Liu Zhenghai.

Seeing the scene before him, Liu Zhenghai’s face darkened.

He couldn’t help but shout angrily:

”Tao’er, what do you think you’re doing? This is outrageous!”

Liu Tao jumped in fright. In front of Liu Zhenghai, he would never dare to be so presumptuous.

Thus, he could only step back, deeply unwilling, and stand to the side.

Liu Zhenghai asked sternly, ”Tell me. What exactly is going on here?”

Liu Tao said resentfully, ”It’s nothing, Second Uncle. I just wanted to get the key and release the Four Great Vajras.”

Liu Zhenghai was also taken aback, not expecting Liu Tao’s actions to be so reckless.

”Tao’er, why would you release the Four Great Vajras? Don’t you know what kind of terrifying figures they are?”

Of course, Liu Tao was also quite afraid of his second uncle, so he could only recount the grievances he had suffered in Celestial South Province, heavily embellishing the story as he told it.

In his telling, there was not a hint of gratitude for Ouyang Feifei, who had saved his life.

Finally, Liu Tao added in a sinister tone, ”Second Uncle, it’s very likely that Qin Tuo was hired by the Ouyang Family to get revenge on our Liu Family. We have to be on our guard!”

After listening, Liu Zhenghai just sneered. He clasped his hands behind his back and said casually, ”Don’t you worry. The Ouyang Family has long since fallen from grace. For them to want to fight our Liu Family now... isn’t that just courting death?”

Liu Zhenghai was deeply confident. He had personally taken part in crushing the Ouyang Family, so he wasn’t the least bit worried about them now.

But Liu Tao was growing desperate and couldn’t help but say, ”But Second Uncle, that Qin Tuo is infuriating! Are you just going to stand by and watch me be bullied like this?”

By the end, his voice had become incredibly hoarse, his emotions clearly running high.

Liu Zhenghai looked at Liu Tao intently for a moment, then couldn’t help but sigh.

After all, he had always doted on this nephew of his.

Seeing Liu Tao in such a distraught state, Liu Zhenghai finally said, ”Alright, Tao’er. I will lend you Tomb Tiger. Go to Celestial South Province and get your revenge.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Tao’s sullen expression instantly transformed into a broad grin.

He couldn’t help but laugh smugly. ”Excellent! If Uncle Hu goes with me, that Qin Tuo is sure to die a very ugly death!”

Liu Zhenghai nodded and smiled. ”Of course. When your Uncle Hu makes a move, that little brat won’t stand a chance. This way, you can get your revenge and finally vent all that frustration.”

Imagining the scene, Liu Tao could no longer contain his excitement.

...

Three days later, Qin Tuo returned to the Provincial City with Chen Man Ni.

He had already spoken with Xu Zhigang and arranged for Jiang Wanyu to re-enroll in a local high school for a year.

As for Chen Biao, there was no need to worry.

Qin Tuo had inadvertently learned that Chen Biao was now a cripple and had fled Xiaolu Town overnight, disappearing without a trace.

Thus, Qin Tuo could return to the Provincial City with peace of mind to handle his next affairs.

After returning to the villa, the first thing Qin Tuo did was ask about the medicinal herbs.

Qin Tuo called Qiangwei over to inquire about the matter.

Qiangwei gave a bitter smile and said, ”Celestial King, you may not be aware, but there hasn’t been any word from Medicine King Valley. I think they might have backed out of our deal.”

However, Qin Tuo wasn’t anxious at all. Instead, he said with a cold smile, ”If that’s the case, then I’ll just have to go get them myself!”
