However, before Zhou Yu could react, Zhang Tingfang took a step forward, coldly gazing at the few people in front of him.
These people were all white-haired elders.
Judging by their attire, they appeared to be individuals of considerable influence within the Zhang Family.
Zhang Tingfang coldly stared at them and said:
"What do you intend to do?"
"I warn you, Zhou Yu is a guest of the Zhang Family and the savior of Zhang Qin."
"If you wish to harm him, don’t bla , the Family Head, for not showing rcy."
Facing Zhang Tingfang’s intimidation, one of the elders angrily said:
"Family Head, this Zhou Yu is specifically wanted by the Heavenly King Sea."
"This is an opportunity for our Zhang Family to build good relations with the Heavenly King Sea."
"If we miss this chance, the Zhang Family might face even more trouble in the future."
Zhang Tingfang replied coldly:
"Wasn’t what I said clear enough?"
"Zhou Yu is a guest of our Zhang Family, and our Zhang Family does not need to curry favor with the Heavenly King Sea."
"Stand down!"
Zhang Tingfang shouted without hesitation.
Facing Zhang Tingfang’s reprimand, the elders did not withdraw, continuing to glare at Zhou Yu with hostility.
Zhou Yu didn’t care much about the hostility projected by these elders.
Because these people were rely Emperor Realm cultivators.
Moreover, judging by their appearance, they seed to be just ordinary Emperor Realm Martial Artists.
Nowadays, Zhou Yu wouldn’t bother to pay them any mind.
However, he was quite curious.
He had never t these people, so why such intense hostility?
Zhou Yu curiously asked:
"Miss Zhang, who are these people?"
Zhang Qin apologized with a look of remorse:
"Zhou Yu, sorry to make a fool of myself in front of you."
"They are all elders of our Zhang Family."
"These people often do not get along with my father, especially regarding the future developnt of the Zhang Family."
"These people are constantly thinking about seeking refuge with the Heavenly King Sea."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu suddenly understood.
So they intended to use him to seek rit with the Heavenly King Sea.
Zhou Yu sneered without speaking.
At this mont, Zhang Tingfang stepped forward, unleashing an overwhelming aura.
"I say it for the last ti, get out of my sight!"
"Otherwise, I will consider you traitors to the family!"
Upon hearing this, the elders exchanged glances and eventually left with cold expressions.
After the elders left, Zhang Tingfang withdrew his aura, turned around, and looked at Zhou Yu apologetically, saying:
"Sorry, Mr. Zhou, for making a fool of you."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
"It’s no problem."
"Miss Zhang just ntioned the sa thing earlier."
"I understand."
Zhang Tingfang smiled wryly and then said:
"Mr. Zhou, co to my study."
Zhou Yu nodded.
Soon, everyone arrived at Zhang Tingfang’s study.
After sitting down, Zhang Qin imdiately brewed tea for everyone.
During this ti, people casually chatted about matters in the Martial Arts World.
After so small talk, Zhang Tingfang cleared his throat and said seriously:
"Mr. Zhou, there’s a question I’d like to ask regarding the Heavenly King Sea."
Zhou Yu smiled and said:
"Uncle Zhang, no need to be polite. Just ask."
Zhang Tingfang began:
"I know the Heavenly King Sea has issued capture orders against many families, insisting on your capture."
"Is the conflict between you and the Heavenly King Sea deep? Is there no room for reconciliation?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu shook his head and said:
"Calling it a conflict would be an exaggeration."
"Mainly, they want to use to reap greater benefits."
"I naturally won’t submit easily, and they won’t easily give up either."
"If you’re worried about the Heavenly King Sea, you’d better keep your distance from ."
Zhou Yu said half-jokingly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tingfang waved his hand directly.
"Mr. Zhou, you are joking. If I, Zhang Tingfang, feared the Heavenly King Sea, I wouldn’t be hosting you today."
"Moreover, I’ve always believed that our Zhang Family should rely on ourselves and not seek any backers."
At this, a touch of sorrow flashed in Zhang Tingfang’s eyes.
He looked at Zhang Qin and said:
"Xiao Qin, this is the first ti Mr. Zhou’s friends have co to our Zhang Family. Take them around to have a look."
Smart as Zhang Qin was, she imdiately understood that her father wanted to discuss sothing important with Zhou Yu.
Zhang Qin instantly bead a smile at Yun Feifei and said:
"Miss Yun, there’s a lake behind our Zhang Family Mountain with a very pleasant scenery. Let take you to have a look."
Yun Feifei, upon hearing, glanced at Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu gently nodded.
Then Yun Feifei said with a smile:
"Sure."
Next, Zhang Qin took Yun Feifei and Jiang Xiuwu and left the study.
In the study, only Zhou Yu and Zhang Tingfang were left.
Zhang Tingfang took a deep breath and said:
"Mr. Zhou, to be honest, the Zhang Family is indeed in a very troubleso situation right now."
"Especially in the past ten years, we have been suppressed by the Gu Family and the Gong Family. Our influence is currently limited only to this Black City."
"That’s why we took the risk of letting my daughter take family experts into the Blood Sky Secret Treasure, hoping to gain sothing."
"Fortunately, the ancestors blessed us, and my daughter obtained the ancestors’ Daoist inheritance, which is considered fortunate amid misfortune."
Zhou Yu smiled and said:
"Isn’t that great?"
"With Blood Sky’s senior inheritance, the rise of the Zhang Family is just a matter of ti."
However, Zhang Tingfang sighed and said:
"Currently, the most critical issue is ti."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu realized that Zhang Tingfang seed to have a request for him.
Zhou Yu smiled and said:
"Uncle Zhang, if there’s sothing you want to say, just say it directly."
