"Uh!"
Dong Sen used to be the patriarch of the family, an elder in the Elder Council. His status was second only to the City Lord's. He was accustomed to giving orders and making decisions.
After being slapped several times in a row by Xiaoqing, he finally realized that among the four of them, his status was the lowest.
He hurriedly came to Ye Bufan's face with a smiling face: "Young master, I'm really sorry. I can't stand these arrogant and domineering young masters. I acted rashly for a while. Please forgive me."
Ye Bufan glanced at the old man, a smile playing at the corner of his lips.
"The new person here has the surname Dong, and you also have the surname Dong. Could there be a relation between you two?"
Although he was young, his experience was definitely incredibly rich, and his eyes pierced through everything.
Dong Sen felt he was being very discreet, but in reality, he could see everything clearly and immediately saw through the trickery.
This old geezer was standing there watching the show, waiting to see what would happen.
And then, the arrival of this Mr. Dong immediately stepped forward to intervene. He looked quite forceful but actually controlled his movements very well, only aiming to let the other party escape.
The hype was big, but a closer look immediately revealed the trick.
Only then did Dong Sen realize that the young man before him was far more capable than he appeared, far from as simple as he had imagined.
He glanced at the menacing Xiaoqing beside him, knowing that if he admitted it, there would be another round of brutal beatings.
This guy finally gritted his teeth and said, "No, no, I don't know that kid at all."
He kept talking, but inwardly he prayed that the Dong family wouldn't make a fool of themselves and that this matter would just end here.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. He might have prayed too late, because just as he finished speaking, a roar echoed through the air.
“I wonder who ate the guts of a lion, daring to move my Dong family members in Hongtian City!”
At the sound of the shout, Dong Sen shuddered, feeling an urge to curse.

What you fear comes true. The Dong family really came!

But that's understandable, after all, in his usual indulgence, the Dong family has always acted arrogantly and bullied others. How could they possibly swallow their anger now?
The crowd of onlookers remained around, and instead of thinning out, they grew denser and larger, a vast sea stretching as far as the eye could see.
At this moment, a passage opened up automatically on the street. On the other side, over a hundred people came charging in aggressively.
A middle-aged man in a long robe stood before them. Though not particularly tall, he possessed an air of inherent majesty that commanded respect.
He exuded a powerful aura, having already reached the realm of a second-order Primordial War General.
Dong Cheng, the head of the Dong family, is a well-known figure throughout Hongtian City.
He was furious when he just heard that his family members had been beaten up outside.
Although Dong Feng wasn't considered a core disciple, he represented the Dong family. This was akin to someone publicly slapping the Dong family in the face.
If they don't recover their face today, how can the Dong family ever stand in Hongtian City? What face will the head of the family have left?
For this very reason, he immediately led a large retinue of servants and stormed over.
His purpose was very clear: to kill as a warning, to establish the Dong family's position in all of Hongtian City.
Seeing the head of the Dong family personally lead people here, Dong Sen wished he could slap him to death with his bare hands.
What are you here for? Are you looking for death, or trouble for yourself?

He thought this way, but he didn't dare to show it at all, even shrinking his neck and hiding directly beside him.
Although Dong Feng didn't know the other person just now, as the head of the Dong family, Dong Cheng, would definitely recognize him.

Once his identity is exposed, he will inevitably be reprimanded by Xiaoqing.
Dong Cheng had no idea about all this. He led over a hundred servants, striding with great pomp from the other end of the street, his presence was unmatched for a time.
"It's over, these people are completely finished. They should have known better than to mess with the Dong family!"
These onlookers all shook their heads. Even the head of the Dong family came out personally, so what good could possibly come of this for these people?
Occasionally, a few seemed to recognize Dongsen's identity, but then shook their heads.
This is impossible!
How could the Ancestor of the Dong family possibly attack his own descendants? Besides, he was just beaten so badly by that little girl. It must be that I was mistaken.
Dong Cheng led the way, Dong Feng followed behind, and a young man in fine clothes on a stretcher brought up the rear. They walked straight up to Ye Bufan.
"Who beat my Dong family members?"
He roared with anger, his voice filled with boundless authority.
Those around were startled, and the head of the Dong family's anger was a serious consequence.
Dong Sen sighed, pulled his neck back, and buried his head even lower, wishing he could shove it straight into his pants.
He didn't want to be found by the Dong family, but unfortunately, at this time there was nowhere to hide.
With the head of the family backing him up, Dong Feng, who had just been in a sorry state, seemed like a different person altogether, acting arrogantly and proudly.
He didn't even look at Ye Bufan, his eyes constantly searching for the old man who had just attacked him.
After much searching, his gaze finally fell upon Dong Sen.
"Old geezer, where did you go? Weren't you just acting so tough?"
In Dong Feng's view, this old man must be afraid of him, afraid of the Dong family, that's why he shrunk like this.
This guy raised his hand and shouted, his voice booming like thunder: "Patriarch, it was this old geezer who just beat me up!"
Dong Sen was about to go crazy. He tried his best to hide, but this idiot still found him in the end.
"You bastard, die!"
He regretted it now, wishing he had just slapped the guy to death the moment he saw him.

"Uh!"
Everyone in the room was stunned, who was this old man? How could he be so arrogant!
To kill a member of the Dong family in front of the head of the Dong family, is he crazy?
Dong Cheng was also startled. He hadn't expected that even after he arrived, the other party would still dare to attack his people.
Dong Feng may not be important, but this is hitting the face of the Dong family, making him furious.
"Damn old man..."
He was just about to get angry, but when he saw the other person's face, his expression froze instantly, and he looked terrified.
"Elder, Elder, our Ancestor..."
Although he was the head of the Dong family, his status and position were far inferior to Dong Sen's. In terms of seniority, he was a grandson in age.
It would be an understatement to say that without the nod of approval from this esteemed ancestor, he wouldn't even be eligible for the position of head of the family.
Even now, if Dong Sen is unhappy, he can be replaced at any time.
This is the authority and strength of the Dong family's ancestor, who can control everything in the family with a wave of his hand.
Having confirmed that he hadn't misread, he didn't dare to hesitate any further and knelt down.
"Dong Cheng has met the Ancestor!"
His bodyguards, who always stayed by his side, also knew the old ancestor well. They had been with their master for years and naturally recognized him.
At this moment, he imitated them, kneeling down with a thud and bowing his head in respect.
The audience was completely dumbfounded. What on earth was going on?
