However, there are too many variables in this "bloody head" and it is too difficult to grasp the measurement.

Cultivating immortality is inherently a journey that defies heaven. Along the way, there are countless instances of provoking quarrels and making enemies, silencing witnesses, exterminating families to steal treasures, and envy of talented individuals. Many talents weigh less than two taels, yet their bones weigh dozens of pounds. If all the corpses of geniuses Luo Cang had seen over the years were packed into a car and laid out, it would easily circle Daimao Island several times.

Regardless of whether one is a genius or a mediocre person, the most important thing to avoid is complacency and conceit, and not being able to understand the importance of things and oneself.

In the past, he could look at as many corpses as he wanted, and it had nothing to do with him. But if his disciple could become one of them... that would be unacceptable.

Luo Cang was troubled by his thoughts and could not help but ordered with a gloomy face: "Come here."

Luo Jiujiang came over confused.

The young man stood straight, like a wooden pillar in front of Luo Cang. Luo Cang had to look up to see him. He added unhappily, "Squat down."

Luo Jiujiang squatted down in a daze.

Luo Cang lowered his head and stared at the other party for a long time. Finally, his head slammed against Luo Jiujiang's forehead, causing the unprepared Luo Jiujiang to scream miserably.

Luo Cang felt relieved.

He let out a long sigh, and said angrily: "You are so smart, why can't you be a little dumber!"

Luo Jiujiang: "..." He's so smart, but who did he offend? If he was really smart, he wouldn't squat down and get beaten!

——————————

That night when Luo Jiujiang returned to his courtyard, Han Qianling was standing at the gate with his hands behind his back. When he saw him coming, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"How did you get into such a mess?" Luo Jiujiang's whole body was soaked with sweat. Even though he was blown by the cold wind at night, the dark marks on his clothes had not yet dried and stuck to his body.

"I don't know why Master dislikes me." Luo Jiujiang spread his hands helplessly, "Why are you waiting here?"

"Qinghui is here, and he's brought a new friend with him," Han Qianling said briefly. He waited for Luo Jiujiang to reach him before opening the gate. "I just heard your footsteps, so I went out to greet you."

As they were talking, the two walked into the courtyard. A young man sitting at the table in the courtyard sipping tea laughed when he saw Luo Jiujiang's appearance: "Jiujiang, you just walked back like this?"

"I've been in worse shape many times. Everyone on the island has seen me." Luo Jiujiang answered casually. He went into the house, quickly changed his clothes, and re-combed his hair. When he reappeared, he looked like a handsome young man.

Yue Qinghui introduced the young man beside him to him: "His surname is Dong, his given name is Shuang Yu, and he doesn't like to go out. This time the Seven Islands Competition will be held on your Daimao Island. When you meet him, you must take care of him for me."

"Of course that's easy." Luo Jiujiang agreed readily, and the young man next to Yue Qinghui didn't say anything, but he also saluted Luo Jiujiang.

The young man had a slender figure, delicate features, and skin as white as goat fat. Even at dusk, he was faintly illuminated by a layer of light. Luo Jiujiang couldn't help but take another look, and received two indifferent glances from Dong Shuangyu.

"I heard that you beat up Du Di a few days ago?" Yue Qinghui asked interestedly as soon as Luo Jiujiang sat down.

Luo Jiujiang calmly clapped his hands and said with a smile, "They say bad news spreads a thousand miles, how come you all knew about my great deed so quickly?"

Yue Qinghui laughed and said, "Shuangyu, look, there are people in the world who are so shameless."

"How can telling the truth be considered shameless?" Luo Jiujiang tutted. "If I beat Du Di to death, the Du family would have to give me a plaque that read 'Eliminate Harm for the People'—and by the way, how did you know that Du Di had the nerve to spread such a shameful beating?"

"Ask Shuangyu, I heard it from him."

Dong Shuangyu had been drinking tea with his head down, but when Yue Qinghui called him, he looked up. He slowly scraped the tea foam with the tea lid before speaking his first words since meeting Luo Jiujiang.

"Mr. Luo, you may not know that Du Di's elder brother Du Chuan has returned to the island recently."

Du Chuan is Du Di's eldest brother. He used to practice in the Jinkui Sect in the Clouded Leopard Realm. At the age of 23, he has already reached the third level of foundation building. He is a young talent who is highly valued by the sect.

"Hmm?" Luo Jiujiang's train of thought was momentarily distracted. "No way, is Du Di's IQ really that low? If he wanted to stop me, why did he call his eldest brother back from the sect? Are those guest officials and lackeys of his family just for show?"

Han Qianling rubbed his brow helplessly and reminded: "Seven Islands Competition."

Du Chuan had come all this way not just to give his brother a fight. He had come for the generous prizes of the Seven Islands Competition, and of course he would beat up Luo Jiujiang as revenge.

"Okay, okay." Luo Jiujiang cheered up and clapped his hands quickly. "After beating the younger one, it's time for the older one—but haven't they forgotten that these two brothers are older than me?"

Everyone laughed in silence.
