After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

"Hey, you in the white shirt." The henchman drew his knife. "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, or you won't even know how you died."

Bai Yuchen turned a deaf ear.

Not far from the crowd, Yin Mo held Pearl and watched this scene coldly.

Pearl probably sensed the chill emanating from his uncle, so he hugged him and gave Yin Mo two quick kisses on the cheek.

"Uncle, don't be angry, don't be angry, Pearl kisses."

Yin Moxin was almost melted by Pearl's warmth. He pinched Pearl's smooth cheek and said, "Good girl, baby."

The subordinate raised his knife and lunged at Bai Yuchen. Bai Yuchen calmly stood up, and as he passed the subordinate, a thin silver needle pierced the subordinate's skin.

The henchman felt a slight stinging pain in his neck, then, as if enraged, shouted, "I'll kill you!"

However, his movements became extremely heavy. Just as he raised his knife, Bai Yuchen kicked him to the ground, and he didn't even have time to react.

This kick was incredibly powerful, just like the one he used to kick the child before.

Now it's his turn to vomit blood.

However, this subordinate was strong and powerful, unlike the child who was half-dead with a single kick.

He clutched his chest and coughed up blood several times, yet he was still able to stand up and continue attacking Bai Yuchen.

After failing to touch Bai Yuchen's clothes with several consecutive moves, the subordinate roared angrily and turned to the others, saying, "What are you standing there for? Come at me all at once!"

A group of henchmen surrounded Bai Yuchen. Tian Hai was watching the show when he suddenly heard Yin Cheng indignantly say, "Brother, he actually doesn't take you seriously! He has some nerve!"

Tian Hai narrowed his eyes, suddenly realizing this was an excellent opportunity to test the waters.

"Brother Da Hu, what makes you say that?"

Yin Cheng said, "Even the eldest brother hasn't said a word, but this younger brother is already actively ordering people around."

As he spoke, he casually drew another man's knife and immediately slashed at his subordinate.

The henchman, still wiping the blood from his mouth, scrambled to the side, exclaiming in shock, "Brother Da Hu, what are you doing? Cut him down!"

Yin Cheng said, "My elder brother hasn't even spoken yet, what right do you have to say that? Whether this person lives or dies is of course only my elder brother's right to decide. What makes you think you can make decisions for him?"

Tian Hai suddenly realized that what this kid said actually made sense...

"Don't you know who the boss is?" Yin Cheng added fuel to the fire. "And you guys, do you even know how to be underlings? Don't you understand what it means to follow the boss's lead without question?"

Tian Hai hadn't thought there was anything wrong with what he said when he watched the play, but after listening to Yin Cheng's words and pondering them over and over again, he found them to be quite reasonable.

Before his elder brother even spoke, his subordinates dared to act on their own initiative?

Yin Cheng accurately grasped the mindset of someone in a superior position, saying, "Brother, don't worry, I, Wang Dahu, will listen to you. Whoever you say to cut, I will cut. No one is more powerful than you."

Tian Hai glanced at his subordinate who had made the first move; his fat face was unreadable.

Although he was displeased and had been fooled by Yin Cheng, his mind remained clear.

He knew that at this time, he should first establish his authority among the people, otherwise who would fear the Tian family in the future?

Tian Hai said, "Da Hu, go and deal with that lowly slave."

"You're not even calling me 'brother' anymore?" Yin Cheng rolled his eyes at Tian Hai with his back to him, but still managed to express his loyalty, "Don't worry, big brother."

He swaggered up to his brother-in-law, knife slung over his shoulder, and said, "You little brat, you've got some nerve, daring to mess with my older brother. Do you even know who my older brother is?"

Bai Yuchen cooperatively asked, "Who is it?"

Yin Cheng proudly declared, "My eldest brother is Tian Hai of Hongfeng County, also known as Lord Hai!"

Bai Yuchen slightly raised his eyelids, trying his best not to look at people with the whites of his eyes, "Never..." He had never heard of it.

Yin Cheng immediately interrupted his brother-in-law, "That's right, in Red Maple County, my eldest brother is this one." He gave a thumbs up, his face full of pride.

Bai Yuchen: "..."

"You actually dared to offend my elder brother? I think you're tired of living." As Yin Cheng spoke, he raised his knife and slashed at his brother-in-law, without any skill, relying entirely on brute force.

Bai Yuchen: "..."

This kid is such a lively character.

Although Bai Yuchen was skilled in medicine and poison, he also had some knowledge of martial arts. In addition, Yin Cheng was deliberately slashing around, so to outsiders, it would be difficult to determine a winner in a short time.

Tian Hai frowned, looking at the two locked in combat, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

Wang Dahu's skills were definitely the best among his subordinates, but now suddenly another person has appeared who is on par with Wang Dahu.

There's no reason why so many experts would suddenly appear in this small Red Maple County.

Could it be...?

His heart skipped a beat, and his gaze toward Yin Cheng turned dangerous.

Tian Hai was no ordinary person to become a local tyrant in a prefecture.

Yin Mo, who was not far away, took in his expression. He pondered for a moment and then suddenly said, "Little Fish, come back."

Bai Yuchen quickly withdrew and stood back beside Yin Mo.

Yin Cheng had no idea what his brother was up to. He had just cleared his throat, ready to launch into a long, heartfelt speech praising his older brother, when he saw his brother walking over with Pearl in his arms.

When Pearl saw her father, her big eyes darted around, but she didn't greet him. Instead, she nestled obediently in her uncle's arms.

Although Yin Mo was a young man, his aura was no less than that of a gentleman. "I am Bai Mo, a businessman from Yunzhou. I did not mean to offend you. Please forgive my rudeness."

Tian Hai pushed through the crowd and stood before Yin Mo. "You're from Yunzhou?"

At this moment, one of his men whispered in Tian Hai's ear, "Master, it was he who bought Yuan Xuan's old house."

Tian Hai's gaze swept back and forth between Yin Mo and Bai Yuchen. A young man like him could casually take out a thousand taels of silver to buy a house; he must be someone who was not short of money.

Looking at this young man, although he wasn't wearing any headdress, the jade pendant at his waist was quite extraordinary; even in a place like Red Maple County, it would be worth a thousand taels.

It's a fat sheep!

He waved his men away, revealing a smile. "So it's Brother Bai. What a coincidence. I'm also a businessman. How about we find a place to sit down and chat?"

Yin Mo nodded slightly, "It was my attendant who offended Master Hai first, and I should apologize."

He looked around and spotted a restaurant not far away, saying, "How about this, there's a restaurant right ahead. I'll treat you, sir, to a meal, and we can let bygones be bygones. What do you say?"

"Excellent, excellent."

Yin Cheng walked behind Tian Hai with the knife in his arms, seemingly protecting Tian Hai, but in reality, he had been playing with his son for quite a while.

Pearl hugged her uncle's neck, her little face resting on his shoulder, just in time to meet her father's gaze.

Yin Cheng didn't see his wife and guessed that she probably hadn't gone out, unaware that Lin Nian and Xiao Jiu'er were at the fabric shop picking out brocade.

Lin Nian planned to make a new cloth ball for Pearl so that Pearl wouldn't keep nagging at night about how her ball was missing.

The group entered the restaurant, and the waiter, seeing that it was Tian Hai, hurriedly led them to a private room.

After the group took their seats, Tian Hai's men waited outside the private room.

Yin Cheng had originally prepared himself to be a background figure outside, but Tian Hai said, "Brother Da Hu, come in too. We're all family, no need to be polite."
