Wang Tianhua recounted everything that had happened without hesitation, his eyes filled with pleading.
"It was all my fault before, I did that foolish thing."
"I shouldn't have harbored any ill intentions. If I had known you were so powerful, I wouldn't have dared to act out even with ten times the courage."
"Please, give me another chance. I promise I'll never dare to do it again."
The pain in his body slowly receded, and he regained his hope of survival.
Who would want to die if they could live?
The Wang family members, upon seeing the full account of events, were furious.
They had suffered a completely unwarranted disaster.
Especially Old Man Wang, who at that moment wished he could hang his grandson and beat him to death.
His eyes blazed with immense anger, but the moment he saw Lin Xiaotian, the fury vanished completely.
"Now that you know the whole story, are you going to give me an explanation?"
"You welcomed me so enthusiastically without even understanding the reason. Should I just unleash my fury and annihilate your entire Wang family?"
As he spoke, his aura erupted, like a raging fire descending upon them, making them feel as if thorns were pricking their backs.
The Wang family members all cast hateful glances at Wang Tianhua, their expressions growing even more grim.
They all had one thought: to skin this bastard alive and get rid of him.
They couldn't believe he dared to provoke such a monstrous expert, essentially pushing everyone in the Wang family into a fiery pit.
Old Man Wang bowed and said, "I apologize. This is all my fault."
"I failed to discipline my descendants properly."
"And I will certainly give you a satisfactory explanation for today's events."
Lin Xiaotian's face broke into a brilliant smile. "Good, I'll be watching. If you can't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I'll take matters into my own hands."
With that, he kicked Wang Tianhua.
Wang Tianhua was sent flying backward, landing heavily in front of Old Man Wang.
Old Man Wang's eyes blazed with fury, his teeth grinding audibly. One of his arms had already been crippled by Lin Xiaotian, and any slight movement sent piercing pain through him.
However, Wang Tianhua looked incredibly excited. His grandfather had always doted on him, so he must have a chance to live.
"Grandpa, I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance."
"Besides, I didn't do anything too excessive. Jingjing just had some thoughts, and Lin Xiaotian found out. He beat me to this state and completely crippled me. Isn't that settling the score?"
"At most, you can beat me again in front of him."
"You must go easy on me, don't use too much force. I'm injured all over. If you hit too hard, you might kill me. Then you'll have no one to carry on the family line."
Hearing this, Old Man Wang's face turned ashen with anger. Didn't this idiot know that at a certain level of power, even the slightest whisper could be heard clearly?
Moreover, they were less than ten meters apart.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and slapped Wang Tianhua hard across the face.
"Slap!"
The crisp sound of the slap echoed loudly.
Wang Tianhua's vision swam, and as he fell to the ground, blood gushed from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
He had originally thought that falling into his grandfather's hands would at most result in a beating, and perhaps today's ordeal would pass, giving him a chance to live. But he never expected his grandfather to hit him so hard, knocking out all his teeth with that single slap.
"Grandpa, I'm your own grandson!"
"Why are you hitting me so hard?"
Old Man Wang was so enraged that his lungs nearly burst. He grabbed Wang Tianhua by the collar and delivered several more slaps, leaving him disoriented and with a shattered jawbone.
His anger erupted: "Having a disloyal descendant like you is a curse upon our Wang family."
"If it weren't for your foolish actions, our Wang family wouldn't be in such dire straits."
"As for carrying on the family line, you don't need to worry about it. With an idiot like you, who knows if you'd push the entire royal family of the European Union into a fiery pit and get them killed."
Hearing the old patriarch's words, those present let out long sighs of relief.
This was no time for softness. If Lin Xiaotian remained displeased, the consequences would be dire.
The mere aura emanating from him made them tremble uncontrollably. If Lin Xiaotian were to unleash his fury, everyone present might perish.
A sense of dread began to creep into Wang Tianhua's heart. He looked around, realizing that the people present no longer showed the usual flattery and fawning. All that remained was a desire for him to die.
That gaze filled him with boundless terror.
His voice trembled as he pleaded.
"Grandpa, please give me another chance. Don't beat me to death. I really don't want to die!"
"I'm still young, only thirty-one this year."
"Even if I'm crippled, I can still help the family in other ways. I promise I'll never cause such trouble again. Grandpa, please spare my life. I'm your most beloved grandson."
Blood streamed down his face as he crawled towards Old Man Wang.
The old man glanced at Lin Xiaotian and saw that he was still smiling at him. He knew Lin Xiaotian was still not satisfied. At this point, he harbored no resentment.
If he were in such a situation, he would have undoubtedly stormed over and wiped out his opponents.
His grandson's actions had indeed been too excessive.
He took a deep breath, his eyes hardening. "This is all your own doing."
"Today, I will cleanse our Wang family's lineage. Even though you are my most beloved grandson, I will not show any leniency."
"An idiot like you, who only brings disaster upon our family, is useless to keep. If you make a mistake, you must pay the price."
"Be more careful in your next life!"
With that, he unleashed a fierce palm strike.
