This is the true immortal of the Taoist sect.

Master Luo's expression changed drastically. He looked at Li Daoxuan with disbelief in his eyes and murmured softly:

"True Qi Realm... Grand Martial Master..."

There are seven realms in martial arts training. The first three realms are collectively called Martial Master. Martial Masters at this realm mainly focus on tempering their physique and strengthening their qi and blood.

After reaching the third realm, one's blood and qi are condensed into martial arts true qi, so the fourth realm is also called the True Qi Realm, or the Great Martial Master.

Master Luo has been practicing martial arts for over thirty years, but he is only at the second realm, the Bone and Tendon Realm. Above that is the third realm, the Internal Organ Realm, and above that is the fourth realm, the True Qi Realm.

Without a doubt, at nearly forty years old, he would never have been able to enter the True Qi Realm in his lifetime without a great opportunity.

But he never expected that the young man in front of him, who was paralyzed in a wheelchair, would have such terrifying martial arts skills.

There is no such expert in the entire Anyi County. Even in Lijiang Prefecture, or even in the entire Great Zhao Kingdom, a Grand Martial Master of the Fourth Realm is a talent that many powerful forces are vying for.

How could such a skilled person exist in a remote place like Anyi County?

Master Luo's gaze slowly fell on Li Daoxuan's legs, and his eyes paused.

"Could it be that he's been crippled, with both legs disabled?"

If that's the case, it's like a tiger having its teeth pulled; a Grand Martial Master with two crippled legs might not be as threatening as a Third Realm Martial Master.

Just as Master Luo was pondering to himself, the owner of the mansion, Scholar Wang, finally came out.

Wang, the scholar, was not very old, only in his forties, and he was very well-preserved.

He wore a scholar's long robe, was of medium build, and had a more prominent bearing than ordinary people.

Scholar Wang arrived at the front yard, glanced at Li Daoxuan, and then looked at Master Luo with a questioning look in his eyes.

Master Luo understood, turned to the side and whispered in Wang's ear:

"Suspected to be a fourth-realm Grand Martial Master, but with both legs crippled and unable to move easily, he poses little threat."

Wang, the scholar, frowned and nodded.

As he walked towards Li Daoxuan, his face had changed to a kind smile, and he cupped his hands in greeting:

"I was unaware of Mr. Li's presence. Please forgive my failure to greet you properly."

Li Daoxuan smiled slightly and did not return the greeting. He had already said those polite words when he requested an audience earlier.

Now that the formalities have been presented, it's time to get straight to the point.

Li Daoxuan raised his eyes to look at Wang Juren and said calmly:

"Scholar Wang, you are a scholar, you should know the law."

Scholar Wang smiled and nodded, saying:

"That's natural."

Li Daoxuan laughed and said:

"Then, I ask you, Scholar Wang, according to the laws of the Great Zhao Dynasty, what punishment should be given for the crime of seizing someone's money, violating the law with force, causing serious injury and leaving a potential risk of sudden death?"

Upon hearing Li Daoxuan's words, Master Luo, standing behind Wang Juren, pondered for a moment before his expression changed drastically.

He finally recognized who Qingfeng was.

But Wang, the scholar, did not notice anything unusual about Master Luo. Instead, he said in a serious tone:

"Such a serious crime, according to the laws of the Great Zhao Dynasty, should be punished by confiscation of property, exile to the border, and military service. If the offender is a military man, his hamstrings should be severed, and his martial arts skills should be revoked."

Master Luo's expression was cold, and his gaze swept back and forth between Qingfeng and Li Daoxuan.

He never imagined that a young pageboy would have a fourth-level martial arts master backing him up.

After listening to what Scholar Wang had said, Li Daoxuan smiled and nodded, then pointed to Master Luo and said calmly:

"In that case, please, Scholar Wang, clean house according to the law..."

Wang Juren was taken aback upon hearing this. He followed Li Daoxuan's finger and looked behind him, where he saw Master Luo with a gloomy expression.

Wang Juren instantly understood something, and a clear look of annoyance flashed in his eyes.

But Master Luo is, after all, an elder of the Wang family. He has been guarding the Wang family for more than 20 years and was also his son's first martial arts instructor. He should be protected.

Wang, the scholar, turned to look at Li Daoxuan, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, and said:

"Mr. Li must have misunderstood. Master Luo has served my Wang family for over twenty years and has always been a man of high moral character. He could never be the kind of person Mr. Li is describing."

After hearing what Wang Juren said, Qingfeng, who was standing to the side, was already furious, his eyes filled with anger.

Li Daoxuan had long anticipated that the other party would say that, so he wasn't surprised at all.

He simply turned to Qingfeng and asked:

"Qingfeng, is that him?"

Qingfeng nodded without hesitation and said:

"Yes, it's him."

"How many taels of silver did he steal from you?"

"The cost of those medicinal herbs is a total of twenty-five taels."

After the conversation ended, Li Daoxuan looked at Wang Juren and smiled without saying a word.

Wang Juren's face gradually darkened, and there was some hesitation in his eyes, clearly weighing whether or not he should offend Li Daoxuan.

"Hmph, just a lowly slave, making baseless accusations without any evidence. Do you have any proof?"

Master Luo stepped forward and pointed at Qingfeng coldly.

Qingfeng was speechless for a moment. He really had no evidence, and even his injuries had been healed by Li Daoxuan.

Upon hearing this, Li Daoxuan looked up at Master Luo and smiled:

"Evidence? There is none, nor is it necessary. Since Qingfeng says it's you, then it can't be wrong."

Master Luo's expression changed slightly, and he said angrily:

"How domineering! According to Mr. Li, doesn't that mean you alone can decide who is guilty and who is innocent in this world?"

Li Daoxuan ignored him and instead looked at Wang Juren, asking:

"Scholar Wang, he is your man. You decide how to deal with him."

Scholar Wang glanced back at Master Luo, his face showing reluctance.

After thinking about it, I still braced myself and said:

"I think Mr. Li has misunderstood. I know Master Luo very well; he would never hurt someone for a mere twenty taels of silver."

"However, since it was Mr. Li who lost twenty taels of silver, I, Wang, am willing to make up for it. I am willing to offer five hundred taels, and we can settle this matter here. What do you say?"

Li Daoxuan smiled upon hearing this and replied:

"Compensation is necessary, but the order of priority must be followed."

After saying that, he looked at Master Luo, and his tone became cold.

"I knew you wouldn't admit it, and you wouldn't accept it. Since that's the case, then don't blame me."

After saying this, Li Daoxuan pointed to his chest, and a flash of spiritual light appeared in his hand, revealing a yellow talisman.

Upon seeing this, Master Luo became very vigilant. Although he didn't know what the yellow talisman was, he instinctively sensed a danger.

"Arrogant! I'd like to see just how much skill this crippled Grand Martial Master really has."

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Luo shot out and pounced on Li Daoxuan.

Qingfeng instinctively stepped in front of Li Daoxuan, exclaiming in alarm:

"Sir, please be careful."

But Li Daoxuan pulled him away, forming hand seals and chanting incantations.

Master Luo arrived in an instant, his blood surging and his skin turning red, clearly indicating that he was serious.

Wang Juren remained unmoved by this scene, clearly wanting Master Luo to test Li Daoxuan's true strength.

"Take this punch..."

Master Luo roared and slammed his fist, as big as a sandbag, down at Li Daoxuan, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

If that punch landed, an ordinary person would probably die instantly.

However, just as Master Luo's fist was about to land on Li Daoxuan, a dazzling golden light suddenly burst forth.

"clang..."

A loud bang, like the tolling of a bell, rang out, and the force exploded in all directions, causing those around to involuntarily retreat.

Then everyone witnessed a truly shocking scene: Master Luo, whom they considered incredibly powerful, was suddenly forced to retreat violently, flying backward.

He crashed into a rockery in the yard and then fell into the pond.

In contrast, the young man in the wheelchair remained motionless, with golden light emanating from his body, making him appear like a legendary deity, so imposing that no one dared to look directly at him.
