"Of course, I have a different opinion!" Tang Yang looked directly at Lin Bai with a sneer and said, "Kid, you don’t seem very old, about the same age as me. What virtue or ability do you have to become a Guest Official of the Tang Family!"

"Now, I can give you an opportunity: just get back to where you came from!"

"Otherwise, if I uncover your mask later, neither you nor Uncle Tang Long will look good!"

At this moment, Tang Yang was completely certain in his heart that Lin Bai must have some deal with Tang Long, which is why Tang Long let Lin Bai pass the assessment without even making a move!

Lin Bai heard these words and sneered, "What if I don’t?"

Tang Yang sneered, "If you insist on becoming a Guest Official of the Tang Family, that’s fine. But the previous assessment doesn’t count, and you must undergo another one, and the person who assesses you will be decided by me!"

Tang Long’s expression turned cold as he said, "Tang Yang, I don’t care about your usual misdeeds within the Tang Family, but the Guest Quarters are my responsibility, and there’s no need for you to intervene!"

Tang Yang righteously said, "Uncle Tang Long, this matter concerns the Tang Family’s reputation, and I cannot ignore it!"

Tang Long, seeing that Tang Yang was determined to cause trouble to the end, was also filled with anger.

Meanwhile, the group of lackeys behind him began to cheer joyfully, "Ah, Young Master Tang Yang truly is the outstanding one among the younger generation of the Tang Family, such a sense of mission to fight for the family’s honor makes many Tang Family Martial Artists feel ashamed!"

"That’s right, Young Master Tang Yang will surely become a pillar of the Tang Family in the future!"

"The Tang Family is so fortunate to have Young Master Tang Yang!"

"I am truly moved for the Tang Family to have such an outstanding young descendant as Young Master Tang Yang!"

Even a few lackeys, so moved while speaking, became tearful and emotional.

These words made Tang Yang feel joyful, as if he was indeed sacrificing himself for the Tang Family’s righteousness!

Tang Long shouted irritably, "Tang Yang, you..."

Lin Bai interrupted Tang Long and said, "Protector Tang Long, there’s no need to say more. Since Young Master Tang Yang wants to reassess me, I will accept the assessment!"

"I wonder whom Young Master Tang Yang plans to let assess me? Is it going to be Young Master Tang Yang himself?"

"I’m not bragging, but with Young Master Tang Yang’s cultivation, I haven’t taken you seriously!"

Lin Bai said with a light laugh.

Tang Yang said coldly, "I know my cultivation is not high, so I don’t plan to personally assess you, but I have already sent someone to summon the assessor!"

"You just need to wait a bit longer!"

Tang Yang said indifferently.

Just as he finished speaking, an old man in black clothes quickly walked into the Martial Arts Arena, came in front of Young Master Tang Yang, and respectfully clasped his fists in salute, "Old man greets Young Master Tang Yang!"

"I wonder if old man can be of service to Young Master Tang Yang!"

Seeing this old man, Ban Ye, and Uncle Fatty were both taken aback.

Tang De and Tang Long, however, remained expressionless.

"It’s him!"

"Soul Hooking Hand, Mo Qian!"

"One of the senior Guest Officials of the Tang Family!"

Ban Ye and Fatty said in surprise.

Lin Bai looked at this old man in black, noticing that he was thin, clad in a black robe, with a menacing face and an aura of faint evil qi, exuding an air of estrangement.

This person’s cultivation was in the Death Reversal Realm, which made him quite a master!

Tang Yang, seeing this old man in black, lightly smiled and said, "It’s nothing major, Mo Qian, I summoned you today just to test this kid’s ability, to see whether he’s capable of becoming a senior Guest Official!"

Mo Qian looked up, saw Lin Bai, and said in surprise, "Him? This young man in his early twenties? Senior Guest Official? Hahaha, that’s hilarious!"

Mo Qian immediately laughed wildly, looking at Lin Bai with disdain!

Tang Long’s face was icy as he said, "I decided that he would become a senior Guest Official. Mo Qian, do you have any objections?"

Mo Qian’s smile stopped abruptly after hearing this, hurriedly smiling obsequiously, "Oh, it was Protector Tang Long’s decision. Naturally, old man has no objections!"

Mo Qian felt strange; since it was Tang Long’s decision for the senior Guest Official, why did Tang Yang still want him to test Lin Bai’s skills?

Although Mo Qian was a senior Guest Official himself, he was used to navigating within powerful circles; he wanted to flatter Tang Yang but also didn’t want to offend Tang Long!

Tang Yang said, "Alright, Mo Qian, go on, test his skills. If he doesn’t have the capability to become a senior Guest Official, then break his legs and throw him out of the Tang Family!"

Tang Yang said coldly.

After saying this, Tang Yang sat on a chair, eating fruit, ignoring Mo Qian.

Upon hearing this, Mo Qian walked up to the Martial Arts Competition Arena with a strange expression, muttering to himself: "Young Master Tang Yang’s meaning... is that I should plan to break this person’s legs?"

Clearly, having lived for over a hundred years, Mo Qian could hear the chill in Tang Yang’s words.

Tang Yang didn’t say what should happen if Lin Bai had the strength to become a senior Guest Official; he only mentioned that if Lin Bai didn’t have the strength, then break his legs!

Understanding Tang Yang’s implied meaning, Mo Qian walked into the Martial Arts Competition Arena, said to Tang Long, "Protector Tang Long, this is Young Master Tang Yang’s intention, this old man..."

Tang Long, not waiting for Mo Qian to finish, waved his sleeve and walked away, saying coldly, "Humph, suit yourself!"

After saying this, Tang Long walked over to Tang De, Ban Ye, and the others, ignoring the matters in the Martial Arts Competition Arena.

Seeing Tang Long coming over, Tang De whispered, "Big brother Tang Long, Tang Yang is becoming more and more excessive. After being confined for a year, in these months he’s been out, not only hasn’t he restrained himself, but has become even more brazen, turning the Tang Family into a chaotic mess!"

"What can be done at this rate!"

"Now he even wants to meddle in the Guest Quarters!"

Tang De said in a low voice.

Tang Long replied silently, "Forget it, if we can’t afford to provoke him, can’t we avoid him?"

Tang De whispered, "Ha ha, yes, but it’s such a pity for this Guest Official named Lin Bai. Originally, he could become a senior Guest Official, but now not only will he probably not become one, but he may also end up with his legs broken by Mo Qian!"

Tang Long laughed, "That’s not necessarily true!"

Upon hearing this, Tang De frowned and looked at Tang Long suspiciously.

"By the way, Big Brother Tang Long, I haven’t asked you yet, why didn’t you follow through when you had your fist and sword at Lin Bai’s side earlier?"

"Had your punch hit Lin Bai, even if he didn’t die, he would be seriously injured, right!"

"Why didn’t you deliver the blow?"

Tang De asked curiously.

Hearing this question, Ban Ye and Fatty also looked at Tang Long with curiosity, having the same questions in their minds!

"Because..." Tang Long’s eyes turned sharp, showing a hint of remembrance. He gradually recalled that match with Lin Bai earlier. Even at this moment, he was sweating all over!

"Because I’ve never seen such sharp killing intent in a... Sword Cultivator!"

Tang Long said coldly.
