Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

This is a complete disgrace to Jin Manlou. He came to the Lin residence in a great hurry to collect debts, only to end up like this.

Not only did they not get the money, but they also lost Fei Wu's reputation and a powerful patron. From now on, how can Fei Wu show his face in public?

"You can go now." Lin Ping waved his hand, signaling them to get lost and not to offend their eyes.

"Boss, let's go." Two servants dragged the useless, dead pig-like creature and said with a sigh.

This is so frustrating! They're always the ones bullying others, they've never been the ones being bullied. The psychological gap is just too big.

"I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!" Fei Wu shouted hysterically, his facial muscles twitching uncontrollably and his teeth chattering.

Fei Wu had lived half his life, thinking that he could command the wind and rain after ascending to a high position, but he never expected to be beaten by a mere brat.

"Hurry up and leave! Do you know how big a mess you've made?" Tian Duoduo said coldly, afraid that Fei Wu would anger Lin Ping again, which would be more serious than just losing a leg.

He never questioned Lin Ping's abilities and even tried to persuade Diao Mao on several occasions, but the other party wouldn't listen. In the end, Jin Manlou suffered great losses and was completely driven out of Jiangcheng Prefecture.

"Second Master, why are you afraid of a mere brat? I, Fei Wu, refuse to accept this!" Fei Wu asked through gritted teeth, determined to die knowing the truth.

"You must have heard of that person from Jiangcheng Prefecture!" Tian Duoduo prompted him.

Upon hearing this, Fei Wu shivered, a cold wind whistling down his back. He was relieved that Lin Ping hadn't intended to kill him.

However, did Lin Ping really not intend to kill Fei Wu? The answer is no. If Lin Ping hadn't been afraid of being punished by law, Fei Wu definitely wouldn't have survived until tomorrow.

"Who said we were leaving!" Just as Jin Manlou and his group were about to leave, a familiar yet cold voice rang out.

Suddenly, the situation reversed again, bringing joy to some and sorrow to others.

Tian Duoduo's face turned pale, and Lin Ping's heart skipped a beat, but Fei Wu revealed a ferocious smile.

"Boss, you've finally arrived! This brat not only obstructed Jin Manlou from collecting debts, but also openly assaulted someone." Fei Wu dragged his bloodied body to Diao Man's side with a fawning tone, wishing he could list all thirteen deadly sins.

"Who do we have here? It's Boss Diao Mao. Long time no see!" Lin Ping said through gritted teeth, feeling a little flustered.

Diao Mao is a desperate man who is not afraid of his own abilities. Lin Ping has not yet reached the level to go head-to-head with Diao Mao, so he should avoid his sharp edge.

"You dare to injure someone in the street? I have already reported this to the government. Let's see how you explain yourself today!" Diao Mao said with a forced smile.

Aren't you, Lin Ping, supposed to be amazing?

Don't you have some weapons on hand?

Then I will follow the proper procedures with you today. I don't think the prefect will protect an ordinary citizen.

"Boss Diao Mao is really too kind, offering me such a generous gift right from the start," Lin Ping said sarcastically, though he was inwardly panicking.

He was holding a crossbow, which was physical evidence; Fei Wu was crippled, which was witness testimony. Lin Ping had no room for argument.

"Even facing death, Young Master Lin remains so calm. I admire you!" Diao Mao's smile grew even brighter, already picturing Lin Ping being sent to prison.

If the prefect were to take action, he would likely sentence Lin Ping to death, given that Jin Manlou has some connections in the court.

"What are you standing there for, you lecherous thief? Hurry up and go!" Zhou Xiyin gripped Lin Ping's hand tightly again and said anxiously.

Here we go again... Lin Ping was utterly speechless. He said the same thing: if he could really walk, would he be standing here?

"Can we not leave this time..." Lin Ping asked helplessly, having to pretend to be calm and composed.

"Still want to leave? Ask me first if I'll allow it." Diao Man hurriedly ordered several experts to surround Lin Ping.

"Boss, think twice before you act!" Tian Duoduo pleaded earnestly from the side, truly afraid that Jin Manlou would anger Lin Ping again and eventually not even be able to stay in Yingtian Prefecture.

In this way, Jinmanlou was completely finished, and the headquarters of Daye Kingdom was far less well managed than that of Wu Kingdom.

"Tian Duoduo, I think you're getting more and more useless as you get older. What's there to be afraid of now?" Diao Man shouted angrily, not believing that Lin Ping had any way to save himself unless Jiang Yunying came to his rescue with her sword.

Tian Duoduo remained silent, only shaking his head repeatedly. To be honest, he also hoped that Lin Ping would be arrested so that Jin Manlou, this formidable enemy, could be eliminated completely. However, his past experience told him that Lin Ping could not possibly be out of options, and that sinister smile was the best proof of that.

Of course I'm laughing!

If you don't pretend to be calm, will you speak up for me?

Seeing Tian Duoduo get the short end of the stick from Diao Man, Lin Ping felt extremely panicked.

"Hahaha! You little brat, you can be scared too!" Diao Man saw through Lin Ping's thoughts at a glance and couldn't help but laugh loudly.

Fear indicates that Lin Ping truly had no other options; otherwise, he wouldn't have waited so quietly for the prefect to arrive.

The fact that the prefect himself came speaks volumes about Jin Manlou's capabilities. Convicting Lin Ping would be a piece of cake for him.

Lin Ping stopped struggling and felt completely relaxed. He shouted, "I don't believe that the laws of the Wu Kingdom are decided by just a few of you."

"You can try it if you don't believe me." Of course, he couldn't say this out loud, lest he give Lin Ping an excuse.

"This guy is indeed shrewd; even with victory in his grasp, he doesn't dare to say more." Lin Ping admired him from the bottom of his heart, but the situation was indeed becoming more dire.

The two sides remained deadlocked for about fifteen minutes when a commotion suddenly broke out outside. The number and manners of the people could be judged from the uniform footsteps.

As expected, the first to rush in were dozens of yamen runners carrying curved swords. Upon seeing the situation inside the mansion, they immediately drew their swords to control the situation, as they couldn't allow the important figures behind them to be in danger.

"Jin Manlou Diao Mao pays respects to the Prefect!" Diao Mao and his men bowed respectfully as they heard the footsteps.

Approaching from the opposite direction was a handsome young man with a jade-like face. His loose official robes seemed somewhat out of place with the occasion, and his dignified aura was innate, instantly giving everyone a sense of oppression.

"Young Master Lin, quickly kneel down before the Prefect!" Zhou Yezheng also knelt on the ground, constantly tugging at Lin Ping's sleeve, hoping that he could leave a good impression on the Prefect and have his sentence reduced accordingly.

Lin Ping remained unmoved, staring blankly at the prefect, trying his best to control his emotions and not laugh out loud, as this was a very serious matter!

"Your Excellency, this boy is carrying a crossbow and committing murder in the street!" Diao Mao accused Lin Ping.

"Outrageous!" The Prefect of Yingtian Prefecture angrily flicked his sleeves, his face quite stern.

How could someone be allowed to carry a crossbow? How could someone be allowed to commit murder in the street? He will likely be held accountable!
