Hong Chen burst into laughter, his fists pounding on the wooden boards of the carriage.
"Is the fourth level of the Body Tempering stage very powerful? Do you think you're worthy of using an 'expert'?”
The coachman's face was cold as he straightened his whip and said,"I didn't want to fight at first. After all, Master, you're also a scholar. It wouldn't be good if I beat you up.”
"But now it seems that you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. I can only let you suffer a little first.”
Hong Chen stopped laughing and looked at the horse groom seriously.
This would be his first real battle!
The coachman rode on his horse and whipped him.
Hong Chen's eyes were sharp and his hands were agile. He opened his small hands and grabbed the horsewhip that was brushing over.
"Hmm?"
The coachman and Hong Chen were both stunned.
The coachman was stunned because he didn't expect his attack to actually be easily blocked by Hong Chen.
Hong Chen was stunned because he didn't expect the horse groom's attack to actually be…so weak.
Grabbing the horsewhip with his bare hands felt no different from scratching an itch.
"You are so weak."
"What?"
Hong Chen gripped the horsewhip tightly and pulled hard.
A huge force was transmitted over, directly pulling the coachman off the horse's back and rolling on the ground.
The horsewhip was also directly snatched over by Hong Chen.
Hong Chen held the horsewhip and lashed out. The air directly emitted a " crackling " explosive sound.
The tail of the whip struck the coachman's back at lightning speed, causing his clothes to explode. The tip of the whip licked his skin and flesh.
The coachman screamed.
The whip lashed people, and it hurt.
"Didn't you want to rob me and teach me a lesson?”
Hong Chen unceremoniously whipped the horse groom again and again.
The coachman screamed and rolled on the ground, trying to escape.
His eyes were filled with fear and disbelief.
How could a ten-year-old youth be so strong that he could directly hang him, who was at the fourth level of the Body Tempering stage, and beat him up?
After all, the coachman was at the fourth level of the Body Tempering stage and had already tempered his skin.
If it were any other ordinary person, Hong Chen's casual whip would not be as simple as splitting open the skin and flesh.
Hong Chen swung his whip.
The nimble whip whipped through the air, turning into a viper-like afterimage as it coiled around the coachman's ankle.
Hong Chen pulled the coachman to the ground and begged for mercy.
"You didn't plan to let me go just now.”
Hong Chen laughed coldly. His seemingly tender arm pulled forcefully, dragging the coachman to the ground.
Immediately after, Hong Chen lashed out with his whip, making the coachman cry out repeatedly.
"Sir, please spare my life!"
"Am I that old?"
"Spare me!"
"It's useless to call me Yours Truly."
……
A moment later.
Hong Chen used a whip to tie the coachman to a tree. Then, he rode the horse that pulled the carriage and headed towards the capital.
The next day.
The story of the Sage of Calligraphy, Lu Xizhi, spending 10,000 taels of silver to buy two paintings by Master Red Dust spread throughout the capital.
Overnight, Scholar Red Dust's reputation soared.
There were even many rumors in the market saying that Master Red-Dust was only a ten-year-old youth.
However, many people did not believe that a calligraphy and painting written by a ten-year-old youth could win the favor of the Sage of Calligraphy, Lu Xizhi, who spent a huge sum of 10,000 taels of silver to buy it.
Many upper-class celebrities also wanted to see the calligraphy and paintings bought by the Sage of Calligraphy, Lu Xizhi.
……
Chen Manor, Peace Court.
After washing up, Chen Ningxue and Hong Xiu pulled Hong Chen out of bed.
"Wake up, lazy worm."
Hong Xiu lifted Hong Chen's blanket as if she was playing a prank.
Her pretty face flushed red as she hurriedly turned her head away.
"Ah, I'm going to die. I can't get married.”
"Miss, your little errand boy is too…too shameless…"
"Why aren't you wearing clothes when you sleep?"
Chen Ningxue had the same reaction as Hong Xiu. She stomped her feet in anger and said,"Other people's little errand boy wakes up earlier than the sun, but you wake up later than me!”
"Look at the rumor about Master Hong Chen yesterday. He's also a ten-year-old teenager, but he was favored by the Sage of Calligraphy, Lu Xizhi.”
"Luc Xizhi!"
"Ten thousand taels of silver!"
Hong Chen, who was still lazing in bed, suddenly sat up on the bed as if he had a spring installed.
"What ten thousand taels of silver?"
Chen Ningxue turned around and asked curiously.
"Ya, quickly put on your clothes!"
Hong Chen calmly put on his clothes and said,""Luc Xizhi owes me 10,000 taels of silver.”
"Fortunately, I got a carriage yesterday. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to pull back ten thousand taels of silver.”
Ten thousand taels of silver!
At least a few boxes!
Chen Ningxue and Hong Xiu covered their faces with their hands, their fingers revealing a small gap as they looked at Hong Chen.""Little errand boy, are you still asleep?”
"I'm very clear-headed," Hong Chen said.
"Sister Hong Xiu, get me some water and a set of decent clothes. I'm going to visit the Sage of Calligraphy, Lu Xizhi!”
"Little errand boy, could it be…that you are Master Hong Chen?" Hong Xiu asked, her eyes wide and tongue-tied.”
Hong Chen snorted, raised his chin, and said,"Other than me, who else can be such a genius at the age of ten?”
"Sigh, we're both ten years old, but why am I so outstanding?”
Chen Ningxue was speechless.
"Little errand boy, your skin is really thick."
Hong Xiu, who was getting water from the copper basin, gasped and asked angrily,""Little errand boy, why did you order me around? Why should I listen to you? You're clearly just an errand boy!”
Hong Chen washed his face and said with a smile,"You've seen me naked. You have to take responsibility.”
Hong Xiu spat." Bah! You're the one who's responsible for me!"”
"Alright, I'll take responsibility!”
