Overbearing and arrogant

  "How can we help you?" The three elders said in unison after exchanging a glance.

  Du Han smiled faintly and said, "Du Fei's Danzhi technique, I think among the younger generation, no one can withstand it. Even if it were me, I would admit that I'm not his match... However, when it comes to single-wheel martial skills, he's not as good as me..."

  "You mean..." Du Zhenfeng said with a slight frown.

  "So, if you want his life, the best opportunity would be in the Xuan You Secret Realm a month later... and what the three of you need to do is to make sure I can clearly sense his position within the Xuan You Secret Realm! This matter cannot afford any mistakes, I think the three elders will have plenty of time to handle this." Du Han said calmly.

  "After it's done, I'll personally see Du Fei's head!" Du Zhenfeng sneered, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

  "That's natural, then let's cooperate happily!"

  "It was a pleasure working with you!"

  "Hong Er, what impact do you think today's events will have on the Gong Sun family?" In a elegant pavilion of the Gong Sun residence, Gong Sun Ze stood by the window with his hands behind his back, gazing out at the distant view.

  "This shouldn't have any impact, right?" Gong Sunhong had a weird expression on his face, and after a moment, he shook his white leg and said, "However, that Du Fei is really strong to the extreme. I'm afraid it won't take long before even Du Han can't be his opponent!"

  "Indeed!" Gong Sun Ze let out a soft sigh, "Du Zhen Tian that old ghost has good luck, his family produced a Du Han, then another Du Fei, and even eliminated Lian Zhen that little brat. Now looking at our Gong Sun family, apart from you who is somewhat promising, the others are not even half decent... I don't know what will happen to this Gong Sun family after my hundred years are up, whether it will be swallowed whole by the Du family."

  "Dad, you're making a big deal out of this too. As long as Hong'er is here, no matter what, others won't dare to mess with our Gong Sun family." Gong Sun Hong said softly, pinching her little hand.

  "I hope it's just me being overly worried." Gong Sunze smiled faintly, then slowly raised his head, "This sky outside the city seems to be changing!"

  The next day, in the front hall of Du's house.

  In the hall, all the high-ranking members of the Du family were seated, and even those who normally couldn't enter the main hall were squeezed into the corners, their strange eyes scanning back and forth across the room.

  At this moment, under Du Zhentian's seat, there were two rows of chairs. However, what was different from before was that on the left side, the three great elders of the Du family were seated, while on the right side, only Du Fei sat alone, forming a distant confrontation with the three great elders.

  However, compared to the three elder's strange expressions, Du Fei's face didn't have any other emotions, he just sat there with his eyes closed, seemingly without any feeling towards this family gathering.

  For the unusual silence in the hall, no one dared to speak first, until a moment later, Du Fei suddenly slowly opened his eyes, and his calm gaze slowly swept over the three elders opposite him. After a moment, he said faintly: "I need an explanation."

  Upon hearing this, Du Zhenfeng's face slightly contorted, and he immediately suppressed his voice, saying: "Du Fei young master, although this matter can be considered my fault, Xiao Ai is after all just a maid of the Du family. As the elder of the Du family, deciding on a maid's marriage does not exceed my authority, nor do I need to report to anyone! You'd best understand your own identity!"

  "Hmm——"

  Du Fei slapped a palm on the table beside him, directly turning the table into powder, and also shook the three great elders so that they were slightly trembling all over.

  After doing this, Du Fei narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at Du Zhenfeng, then coldly said: "Third Elder, I think you've got something wrong... I never treated Xia Ai as a maid, but rather as my younger sister. And even if she was a maid, you don't have the qualifications to decide anything!"

  "As long as she is a member of the Du family, I have the right to decide!" Du Zhenfeng gritted his teeth and said!

  "You're a pig! Maybe one day when I become the head of the Du family, I'll decide that you should marry a pig!" Du Fei snorted coldly and said, "I don't know how old he is, but he eats more than pigs do. What's the difference between what he does and what pigs do?"

  Du Fei slapped Du Zhenfeng in the face, and his complexion suddenly turned red and white. He was also a person of great status, and no matter what, he couldn't have imagined that Du Fei would be so rude to him.

  Normally, Du Zhentian would have spoken up to resolve the dispute, but for some reason, today he seemed completely oblivious, as if he hadn't heard anything.

  As for Du Zhentian's appearance, Du Zhenfeng was also gritting his teeth in anger.

  "You--" He pointed at Du Fei, his voice filled with a hint of gnashing teeth. "Du Fei, don't forget, you're still a member of the Du family... Such an arrogant attitude, it's no different from your father's back then! How about it, do you want to betray me and leave the Du family too? You--"

  "Bang——"

  Du Zhenfeng hadn't finished speaking when he saw Du Fei's right foot swing out, and the shoe on his foot flew off, slapping him in the face with a loud "slap", as if he had been slapped.

  For this scene, Du Fei seemed to be unfazed, only slightly regretful, saying: "Tsk tsk tsk... these shoes of mine are quite valuable, using them to hit a pig's head is really a waste... Little Ai, go back and help Young Master buy a few more pairs, we won't need this pair anymore."

  "Yes!" Little Ai whispered behind him.

  "Hmm——"

  "Du Fei, you bastard!" Du Zhentian slapped his hand loudly and stood up abruptly, his gaze falling on Du Fei, his entire body radiating a fierce killing intent that spread rapidly.

  "You're sure you want to do this...... I, Du Fei, have killed many people, but killing a pig is truly a first!" Du Fei smiled lightly and casually wiped his right hand, already palming three elixirs.

  At this sight, Du Zhenfeng's face suddenly changed, and for a moment he was stiff there, neither making a move nor not making a move.

  As for his actions, Du Fei was as playful as a monkey, and didn't say much, just looking at him with a hint of a smile.

  While others wanted to stop this scene, they also didn't dare say much.

  This scene lasted for a moment, and Du Zhentian, who was on top, seemed to wake up suddenly. He looked down and said faintly: "Third Elder, you are all of the same age, why bother with a younger generation? And you, Du Fei... no matter what, Third Elder is an elder of my Du family, you can't be disrespectful to him."

  "Yes, I was wrong. Here, I apologize to the three elders... I shouldn't have hit you with my shoe. Next time, I'll use a pair, and you can pick them up and wear them again, so they won't go to waste." Du Fei smiled faintly and casually cupped his hands in greeting.

  "YOU!" Du Zhenfeng's whole body trembled as he stretched out his hand to point at Du Fei. A moment later, his face turned red and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out with a "Pfft——" sound, before he collapsed onto the chair.

  "Du Fei, don't go too far!" Du Zhenxuan said coldly.

  "Too much! If I didn't have some skills, I would have been killed yesterday... Now he just spat out a mouthful of blood and I'm overdoing it? Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that his surname is Du, I would have slapped him to death with one palm!" Du Fei sneered, "You're the same! You three old dogs are all the same!"

  "You——"

  "Alright! Alright! Stop arguing!" Du Zhentian lightly clapped his hands and said calmly, "Du Fei, I will definitely let the three elders give you an explanation for yesterday's matter... You don't need to continue making a scene, after all, this is a clan gathering, what kind of impression are we giving?"

  Du Fei also understood clearly that Du Zhentian had just given him face, so he smiled faintly and didn't say anything else, closing his eyes once again.

  When Du Fei stopped, Du Zhentian waved his hand to signal the three elders to sit down, and then slowly said: "Today's clan meeting is about... everyone understands. The three great elders privately decided on Xiaoye's marriage, which led to yesterday's events, no matter how you look at it, it was a big mistake... Fortunately, thanks to Du Fei, our Du family didn't suffer any losses, so the responsibilities of the three great elders will be temporarily set aside. The elder position is vacant, and I'll fill it later... As for Du Fei, I've decided to reinstate your father Du Tian in the clan records, which can be considered as compensation for this matter. What do you think?"

  Upon hearing this, Du Fei's body trembled slightly. He was well aware that his father had always been resentful about being expelled from the Du family, and now he had the opportunity to re-enter the family tree, which wasn't a bad thing after all.

  At this time, Du Fei didn't stand on ceremony either. He opened his eyes and said: "In that case, thank you, Master!"

  "Heh heh, since Du Fei agrees, then this matter is settled...". Du Zhentian lightly clapped his hands. "Additionally, I permit Xu Xiaoai to enter the third floor of my Du family's Wuguan to choose a skill or technique as compensation... As for the mistakes of the three elders, let's just drop it, after all we are all members of the Du family, no need to be ruthless."

  Du Fei's eyebrows furrowed slightly before he said lightly, "Everything will be done according to the master of the house's wishes from now on...... However, this is only for this one time and won't set a precedent. If there's a next time, don't blame me Du Fei for not distinguishing between family affection!"

  "Haha, this is natural, I think the three elders are also understanding people, and they understand my kindness!" Du Zhentian chuckled and lightly clapped his hands.

  The Du family's front hall was filled with cheers and applause from the clan members. For a moment, it seemed as if there was a hint of harmony and prosperity in the air.

  Du Fei's gaze slowly swept over and landed on the three elders, his eyes colliding with theirs for a brief moment, and in his heart, he couldn't help but let out a cold smile.

  If I weren't still recovering from my own injuries, why would I be putting on airs here? I'd have slapped those three guys to death a long time ago...

  Let's wait and see what happens in the future! At that time, many things will be hard to say.

  "You can only be arrogant now! After you die, I will make sure your beautiful concubine enjoys herself well!" With a vicious curse in his heart, Du Zhenfeng revealed a warm smile and gently smiled at Du Fei.

  This smile, no matter how you look at it, is as difficult to look at as a blooming chrysanthemum.
