Super System in the Early Tang Dynasty

Qian Youde's eyes were bloodshot, as if he were seeing his father's killer. He stumbled and rushed straight at Li Xingzhi! Meanwhile, the few who had been chatting and laughing with him earlier sat to the side, watching the scene with disdain, as if it were a show.

Suddenly, Qian Youde felt a numbness in his knees, and his legs fell to the ground. Using the momentum, he slid in front of Li Xingzhi, as if kneeling down to him!

Those around, who had been expecting a good show, were stunned by the sudden turn of events! No one knew why the previously furious Young Master Qian had suddenly knelt down!

Qian Youde knelt before Li Xingzhi, his legs weak and trembling, his eyes bloodshot and filled with undisguised resentment! He trembled all over, struggling to lift his legs, but they seemed not to belong to him and remained motionless. Qian Youde looked at the boy who was looking down at him with a strange expression, and listened to the whispers and pointing fingers around him, feeling grief and indignation that made him want to die!

He still couldn't understand why his legs had suddenly become unresponsive. At that moment, he completely ignored this strange occurrence.

"Isn't this the eldest son of the Qian family?! Why are you kneeling before me? I don't have a grandson like you!"

"You, you, you..." Qian Youde looked at the person in front of him, wishing he could devour his flesh, and with a push of his hand, he pounced on him!

Li Xingzhi frowned as he looked at Qian Youde, who was lunging at him with undisguised malice in his eyes. With his current abilities, bullying ordinary people was pointless! If he hadn't been in a good mood today, and if Qian Youde hadn't insulted him first, he wouldn't have bothered with this teasing.

As for the Qian family—a sharp glint flashed in Li Xingzhi's eyes!

Putting everything else aside, it's time to settle the old scores from over ten years ago. In fact, Li Xingzhi should thank the Qian family. If they hadn't killed the original owner of this body's parents and left him to wander outside, he might not have been able to come into this world!

Li Xingzhi watched the person rushing towards him, and gently dodged. Qian Youde didn't even touch the hem of his clothes before falling heavily to the ground...

When Qian Youde opened his eyes again, he found himself back home. His body ached and he felt weak. Thinking of the humiliation he suffered in the brothel, his eyes turned bloodshot, as if he wanted to devour someone! How could he, the esteemed young master of the Qian family, have ever suffered such humiliation?!

"Guards! Guards! Find him for me, I want to skin him alive..." His voice was hoarse and vicious, and the frail maid beside him trembled incessantly—Qian Youde had tortured them countless times in the past!

Just then, the door creaked open, and an old man with graying temples, a tired face, and gleaming eyes walked in! His high, hooked nose was particularly striking!

"Who are you going to skin and dismember this time!"

"I want to..." Qian Youde was speaking with a face full of anger and resentment, his words filled with incomprehension, when he suddenly saw the servant kneeling trembling beside him. His expression changed drastically, his eyes flickering with panic! Young Master Qian was always arrogant and domineering in the mansion, and he was also known for his tyranny and bullying of men and women outside. The only person he feared was the old master of the Qian family—Qian Buyong!

Qian Youde's expression changed, and he said respectfully with a hint of fear, "Grandpa, what brings you here? Has something happened in the manor that could alarm you?"

Qian Buyong looked at the pale-faced, frail, and clearly weakened Qian family's only heir, clearly exhausted from a woman's pregnancy, and sighed deeply. This ruthless business tycoon, outwardly ruthless, was now filled with regret, a blank stare flashing in his eyes—what would become of this vast Qian family after his death?! He had many wives and concubines, yet only one unfilial son, who in turn had only one unfilial grandson. Was this retribution for his past misdeeds?

Qian Buyong shook his head, suppressing all his thoughts. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said in a gloomy voice, "My grandson has become a laughing stock in Chang'an. Do you think that's a big deal?!"

Qian Youde looked at the sinister look in his grandfather's eyes and felt a cold wind blow through him. He shivered in his quilt and felt panicked. But when he heard that he had become a laughing stock in Chang'an, his face turned pale!

A tree lives by its bark, a person lives by their reputation! For people like them, their reputation is more important than their lives!

Qian Youde had a vague idea in his heart that the matter would sooner or later become a laughing stock in Chang'an and his greatest humiliation, but he did not expect the news to spread so quickly!

His fear and panic over Qian Buyong subsided, and his face turned from white to red. Suddenly, like a boiled crab, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. "Grandpa, who is that person? I will definitely catch him and grind him to dust!"

"Hmph! All you do is act recklessly. Don't you know how many people in Chang'an are people my Qian family can't afford to offend?"

"Could it be that he..." Qian Youde's face, which had been flushed, turned deathly pale, a chill running down his spine. "Could it be that I will never be able to take revenge?"

Looking at his grandson's spineless and cowardly behavior, Qian Buyong felt even more disappointed. He sighed and said, "That family's background is decent, but it's just barely acceptable!" The Qian family had accumulated wealth over more than ten years, which was indeed incomparable to the declining Li family, even though the Li family was now showing signs of resurgence! Of course, all of this was excluding Li Xingzhi; otherwise, how could the mere Qian family be worthy of a laugh?

Unfortunately, the Qian family didn't take Li Xingzhi, this sudden newcomer, seriously, and didn't even bother to investigate his past. With the enemy powerful and lurking in the shadows, tragedy was already inevitable.

In the Zhou family study, Old Master Zhou sat at his desk listening to the servants' words. His face turned pale and then green, finally settling into a sigh before regaining his composure. "I don't know if my decision was right or wrong! Rou'er, Ai Xiao, please understand your grandfather!"

He knew that Qian's eldest son was a good-for-nothing, spending his days indulging in pleasure, but he never imagined he would one day become the laughingstock of Chang'an! Even he himself was rumored to be a despicable, ungrateful, opportunistic scoundrel who sold his granddaughter for personal gain! No one knew his ambition—the Qian family, the Qian family. If something were to happen to Old Man Qian, and his granddaughter became the matriarch of some family, and given that the Qian family's only son was incompetent and unfilial, then… However, he still had to visit the Qian family later, otherwise, he feared some trouble.

Thinking this to himself, Master Zhou seemed to feel that enduring this infamy and temporary humiliation was worthwhile! However, for some reason, the image of an extraordinary young man in blue robes flashed through Master Zhou's mind, and his heart seemed to pound uneasily a few times...

In the backyard of the Zhou family, a young girl sat in a small pavilion. She was delicate and frail, making people feel sorry for her. Occasionally, a glint of intelligence would flash in her eyes, making people not dare to underestimate her!

The girl sat upright on the stone bench, listening to the news her personal maid had gathered from outside, her face turning deathly pale!

"Miss, Miss, are you alright—" The maid looked at the girl in front of her, her mouth moved, and she muttered indignantly, "I don't know why the old master married you off to such a good-for-nothing! The old master dotes on you so much, Miss, why don't you go and talk to him about it!"
