"Elder Luo, little brother, my apologies. Our General Administration didn't consider this matter properly. I'm here to apologize to you," Xiao Nanshan could only bow his head and say helplessly.
"Apologize?" Chen Fei smiled. "Is it all over with just an apology?"
"Then what do you want!?" Xiao Nanshan narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Don't forget, we are the Xiao Family..."
"Stop right there," Chen Fei calmly interrupted, his tone indifferent. "I don't care if you're the Xiao Family, the Gou Family, or the Cat Family. In any case, if I don't get a proper explanation for this today, the Xiao Family will have to fend for itself."
"You..." Xiao Nanshan's face paled again.
Chief Luo Yuanzhi also gave a wry smile, shaking his head. "Chen Fei, listen to . The Xiao Family isn't as simple as you think."
"It doesn't matter," Chen Fei said with a nonchalant curl of his lips. "They made the first move against . According to the rules, as long as I don't harm anyone else, no matter how I retaliate, it wouldn't be crossing a line, would it?"
This was because of the treaty the circle of Ancient Martial Artists had signed with the governnt. It clearly stated that if soone initiated an attack on them without a valid reason, any form of retaliation would not be considered out of line, provided it didn't affect innocent people. In such cases, the highest levels of governnt would choose to turn a blind eye.
"You aren't thinking of storming their ho, are you?" Hearing Chen Fei's words, Chief Luo's face twitched, his tone tinged with horror.
Knowing Chen Fei, this kid might actually do sothing like that. Imdiately, he said helplessly, "But what if that old fellow Xiao Zhenguo doesn't know about this? Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to direct your anger at him like this?"
"For his failure to keep his subordinates in line, shouldn't he be held responsible?" Chen Fei replied coolly, ignoring the advice.
"This... alright..."
At these words, Chief Luo Yuanzhi was left speechless. He's right. As the leader of the Xiao Family, Xiao Zhenguo failed to handle the scum and parasites within his own clan, leading to such a major incident. Shouldn't he be held responsible for that?
Thinking of this, his expression grew several degrees more solemn. He looked at Chen Fei's indifferent face and said slowly, "Give so ti first. I also want to see what that old man Xiao Zhenguo's attitude will be."
He paused slightly, then continued, "But rest assured, I will make sure the Xiao Family gives you a satisfactory answer. Besides, I don't believe Xiao Zhengguo is stupid enough to willingly offend a Strong Innate Ancient Martial Artist." As he said this, he kept his gaze fixed on Chen Fei.
Clearly, his words were a tacit inquiry, asking for permission to reveal Chen Fei's identity to the Xiao Family. If he could, resolving this matter would beco much simpler.
After all, Xiao Zhengguo wasn't foolish enough to want his family to provoke a Strong Innate Ancient Martial Artist for no reason. That would be an enormous problem, and provoking such trouble over sothing like this simply wasn't worth it.
HISS!
"What!?"
"An Innate Ancient Martial Artist!?"
The crowd, including Xiao Nanshan, felt their pupils shrink. What? A... a Strong Innate Ancient Martial Artist?!
"Elder Luo, let's get out of here. Being in this place is bad for my mood." Without so much as a glance at Xiao Nanshan, Chen Fei turned and walked out of the interrogation room.
