The two chatted with Duan Yu about the recent events in Jinling City but kept silent about the issues concerning the Duan Family, obviously not wanting to make any statents, fearing that Duan Yu would seek their help.
Ning Huanhuan and Liu Peng sat next to Ye Qingfeng, Ning Huanhuan’s beautiful eyes swept over Ye Qingfeng, clearly showing fascination.
It was the first ti she had seen soone who had beaten the Jinling Four Young Masters and still remained unscathed.
But considering the issues that would be faced later, she couldn’t help but worry for Ye Qingfeng.
The heads of the Five Major Families were all cunning like old foxes, far different from the likes of Dong Yunye. If these five joined forces, their power would be unimaginable.
No matter how well Ye Qingfeng could fight, he could never defeat the network of officials and businessn.
Half an hour passed, and four figures entered one after another. These were four middle-aged n, each with a strong sense of evil qi, coming with ill intentions.
Seeing the four, Duan Yu’s eyes narrowed, and the heads of the Zhang and Qiu Families beside him were also on high alert.
"The heads of the four major families from east, west, south, and north have arrived!"
Leaders of various large, dium, and small families around them all showed solemn expressions. In Jinling City, the five old established families were undoubtedly the top tier, without question. This fact beca undeniable after the Duan Family was suppressed by the Five Major Families working together.
However, everyone was a bit puzzled. The Five Major Families were usually unified, so why was there only the arrival of the four family heads this ti, missing the Zhong Family Patriarch?
Dong Kunhu took the lead and as soon as he arrived in the inner hall, his gaze was fixed on Duan Yu.
"Duan Yu, your Duan Family is quite bold!"
He said in a cold voice.
Duan Yu stood up and said solemnly, "Dong Kunhu, what do you an by that?"
"What do I an?"
Without responding, the Head of the Xi Family, Xi Fengxiao, stepped forward angrily, "Your Duan Family is quite arrogant, already at the point of death, and yet you bring in a young brat and pull such a stunt. What, do you have the guts to do it but not to admit it?"
He glanced around and shouted harshly, "If you have the skills, let that boy nad Ye Qingfeng co out. I’d like to see if he has three heads and six arms, daring to hit my nephew, must have eaten a bear’s heart and leopard’s gall!"
"Wow!"
There was an uproar around. They all had heard that the Jinling Four Young Masters were beaten by a young man nad Ye Qingfeng, leaving all of them crippled. Initially, they thought it was a rumor, but hearing Xi Fengxiao say it himself, they were all shocked.
"Bring him out!"
Dong Kunhu stepped forward, exuding an incredible sense of oppression, and the Heads of the Families to the south and north were also aggressive, their gaze chilling.
Duan Yu’s eyes flickered slightly, unwilling to let Ye Qingfeng stand out.
Even if the Duan Family was declining, he was still Ye Qingfeng’s uncle-in-law. He couldn’t allow a child to face such a scene.
"So what if I hit your nephews?"
At this mont, a young man stood up from the corner, his expression calm.
"Never mind hitting a few irrelevant brats, even you old guys, I wouldn’t hesitate to hit!"
His voice was indifferent as he walked step by step toward the center.
All eyes instantly focused on Ye Qingfeng, many hearts leaped with shock at Ye Qingfeng’s wild words, leaving them stunned.
"Big sister, Xiao Feng, he..."
Facing the top figures on the stage, Liu Xu’s palms were sweating. At this mont, seeing Ye Qingfeng step forward, she was at a loss.
Liu i said nothing, just watching Ye Qingfeng. She wasn’t worried about Ye Qingfeng acting rashly because if it ca to the last mont, as long as she revealed Ye Gang’s identity, everything would be resolved.
She wanted to see what Ye Qingfeng would do now.
Ye Qingfeng strode forward and stood in front of the heads of the four families from east, west, south, and north. The Liu and Ning Family heads looked at him with surprise.
"Is this the young man who broke the legs of the Jinling Four Young Masters?"
"He’s probably about the sa age as my nephew, how could he possess such capability? Could he really take on a hundred?"
"Tsk tsk, truly arrogant. Did you hear him? He dared to say he would hit even the heads of the four families from east, west, south, and north, simply outrageous."
The people around were whispering, many with mocking expressions.
In their eyes, Ye Qingfeng was like a newborn calf, ignorant of the vast world; today, no one in Jinling City could probably stand against the heads of the four families gathered here.
"Kid, was it you who crippled my nephew’s legs?"
Xi Fengxiao’s face was shadowed as he asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, it was !" Ye Qingfeng replied with a faint smile, "Judging by your expression, do you also want to end up like your nephew?"
Xi Fengxiao’s expression changed drastically, and Dong Kunhu and the others were sowhat in disbelief.
The appearance of the four family heads symbolized an invincible force in Jinling City, yet facing them, there was actually soone daring enough to be so presumptuous? Moreover, that person was just a teenager, not even twenty years old.
"Young man, don’t be too arrogant. Everyone encounters a hard wall eventually; I don’t care what kingpin you might be elsewhere, but this is Jinling City!"
Dong Kunhu managed to maintain so decorum, looking at Ye Qingfeng, speaking solemnly.
Ye Qingfeng patted his clothes, an indifferent deanor: "I’ve always been this arrogant, wherever I go, I kick over whatever I please, yet I haven’t encountered anything I couldn’t kick through!"
Hearing such blatant words, Xi Fengxiao was furious, about to speak out.
But Ye Qingfeng continued, blocking his words.
"I had those useless nephews deliver a ssage for you, saying I would be waiting for you at the family assembly. It seems you got it!"
Ye Qingfeng touched his chin, and his next words left the whole place dumbfounded, Duan Yu’s heart pounded wildly, almost bulging his eyes.
"Whatever ans you used to defraud the Duan Family of enormous funds, I don’t care, but what you need to do now is..."
"Return all the embezzled money, each compensate the Duan Family with one million, offer resources to share, and let the Duan Family surpass you within two months!"
The place was silent, one by one stunned gazes turned toward Ye Qingfeng.
The heads of the four families from east, west, south, and north were utterly dumbfounded, unsure whether they were speaking with a normal person or a native?
Asking them to repay the swindled money, plus each compensating one million, offering resources to share with the Duan Family, and finally elevating the Duan Family above the Five Major Families, wasn’t this more absurd than a dream?
Duan Yu held his forehead, imnsely troubled, as Ye Qingfeng was now a joke for everyone, seen as a fool and an idiot by countless people.
The Five Major Families had dominated Jinling for hundreds of years, how could they give up countless coveted benefits just for the words of a young man?
Dong Kunhu and the others exhaled a sigh of relief; they originally thought Ye Qingfeng might be a difficult character, but now it seed they were just facing a brainless brute, requiring no great effort at all.
He couldn’t help but sneer, sowhat mockingly asking, "You’re asking us to do these things, on what grounds?"
