“Hmph! What’s there for me to be reluctant about? the Hong family doesn’t lack people. ” The first elder of the Hong family pretended to be nonchalant.

“If that’s the case, then I have nothing more to say.” After saying that, the Yan clan’s first elder stood up and walked out of the hall. However, he had only taken two steps when he was stopped by the Hong clan’s first elder.

“Wait, is there no room for discussion?” The first elder of the Hong family asked helplessly. To be honest, the compensation that the Yan family wanted was beyond his expectations. He really couldn’t bear to part with it! However, the Hong family couldn’t just ignore it. After all, most of the people who came with the family head were the elites of the Hong family. It wasn’t easy to train these people! Moreover, if he really didn’t care about the Hong family members, the main family would blame him if they found out.

“First elder Hong, our Yan clan isn’t the only one who wants this compensation. Your Hong clan has also done some other things and offended others. Furthermore, these people have done a favor for our Yan clan. They want us to help them ask for compensation. We can’t just ignore it!” The Yan clan’s first elder said with a difficult expression. In other words, there was no room for discussion on this matter.

“What else did they do?” The first elder of the Hong family quickly asked after hearing this.

“You’d better go and ask your Hong family. I really can’t explain this matter clearly. How about I accompany you to the prison again?” The Yan clan’s first elder suggested. Although he said this, in his heart, he absolutely did not want this old man to go to the prison again. Yesterday, he went to the prison and wasted a day without any negotiations. Therefore, he must make this matter come true today.

“No need. You just need to tell me who the other person is.” The first elder of the Hong family sighed and said helplessly. He did not want to go to the prison again.

“I’m sorry, I can’t tell you. Elder Hong, come find me after you’ve thought it through and are willing to compensate! However, don’t make me wait too long!” After Yan clan’s first elder finished speaking, he turned and left the drawing room.

After the Yan clan’s first elder left, the Hong clan’s first elder sat alone in his chair, occasionally looking at the list in his hand, feeling pained.

During this period, he called elder Shan over and ordered him to make a trip to the prison to find out everything. After all, they were all in Hong city and did not know what had happened, let alone who they had provoked.

Just as the first elder of the Hong family was deep in thought, elder Shan, who had understood the situation, finally returned.

“Great elder, I’ve asked clearly. The clan head and the elders once wanted to kill a woman and a team that discovered Hong Lian’s scandal. It was also them who helped the Yan clan and captured our Hong clan. Otherwise, our Hong clan would not have fallen into the hands of the Yan clan.” Elder Shan revealed everything he knew in anger.

“Where are those people staying now?” The first elder of the Hong family asked after hearing what elder Wan said.

......

“I don’t know, but I heard that there seems to be a group of people living in liuxiang residence. I don’t know if they are the people that fifth elder and the others mentioned.” Elder Shan said after some thought.

“Oh! Go and find out more. ” The first elder of the Hong family instructed.

“Yes.” Elder Shan responded and turned to leave.

Not long after, elder Shan walked into the living room again and said loudly,””Great elder, I’ve asked around. The person who lives in liuxiang residence is indeed the person that the master and the elders once wanted to kill.”

“I know, you may leave!” The Hong clan’s head elder said softly, but he was extremely puzzled in his heart. Since the Hong clan wanted to kill him, why didn’t they kill him earlier? they even let him help the Yan clan. Sigh! What a bunch of useless trash! At the thought of this, he stood up and walked out.

With elder Shan in tow, the two of them arrived at liuxiang residence.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, the two saw a few men and women in their early twenties with extremely outstanding looks sitting on the stone chairs. At this time, they were gathered together and chatting. When they saw the uninvited guests, they did not show much emotion, not even the slightest surprise, as if they were just passers-by.

Seeing the other party’s calmness, the Hong family’s first elder secretly praised him. Why didn’t the Hong family have such an outstanding person! Although these people didn’t seem to be very powerful, one could tell from their appearance that they were all smart people.

“Hehe! Hello, everyone! I’m the first elder of the Hong family. Please forgive me for my presumptuous visit. ” The first elder of the Hong family greeted him very politely.

“First elder Hong, what’s the matter?” Zi Yu asked with a faint smile.

“We, we are here to apologize. Before this, the Hong family has offended you many times. We hope that you will not hold it against them and forgive them this time!” The Hong family’s first elder said with an apologetic smile. Originally, according to his character, he would never lower his voice to anyone. However, now that he had a favor to ask of someone, he could not put on airs. Hence, his attitude was extremely good.

Zi Yu and the others looked at each other and looked at the first elder of the Hong family as if they were watching a joke. Then, Zi Yu spoke on behalf of the others,””First elder Hong, as long as you pay us the compensation, we will naturally let this matter go.”

“Hey! Don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. You should feel honored that our great elder is willing to come and apologize in person, yet you still dare to make so many requests. You really don’t know what you’re talking about. ” Before the first elder of the Hong family could reply, elder Shan, who was beside him, jumped out and roared impatiently.

“Is this how first elder Hong apologizes?” Zi Yu rolled her eyes at elder Shan, who had just spoken, and said in a cold tone.

“Elder Shan, shut up! Don’t talk nonsense!” The first elder of the Hong family reprimanded.

“Great elder! When has our Hong family ever taken other people’s faces into consideration! These people clearly don’t have any respect for our Hong family! Let me teach them a good lesson!” After elder Shan finished speaking, he directly released a light blue water attribute divine skill at Zi Yu and began to fight.

Seeing this, Zi Yu smiled coldly. With a slight wave of his hand, the divine power that was flying towards him in the air fell to the ground.

“How is this possible?” Elder Shan’s face was filled with disbelief when he saw that his divine skill had been knocked away. The first elder of the Hong family beside him was even more furious. Who asked him to attack this incompetent and useless thing? fortunately, he didn’t hurt the other party.

However, the pressure that Zi Yu released after that made even his heart tremble. This kind of strength clearly did not belong to the divine mainland. He immediately concluded that the other party was someone from the divine world who had concealed his strength, so he was even more careful.

Then, a crisp ‘pa’ sound was heard. Elder Shan was slapped on the face. The force of the slap was so strong that it knocked him to the ground. Elder Shan, who was dazed, could not react at all except to sit on the ground in a daze.

After that, the first elder of the Hong family said to Zi Yu and the others apologetically,””Everyone, I’m sorry. Elder Shan’s mind is a bit unclear, I hope you don’t take it to heart.”

“First elder Hong, you first hoped that we wouldn’t be calculative with the Hong family, and now you’re telling us not to stoop to this elder’s level. Why did you say all these things?” Yue Qing sneered and then continued, “It’s fine if you don’t want us to haggle over it. As long as you pay the compensation we want, the debt between us will be settled. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee the fate of the Hong family members who are locked up in the prison. ”

“This ...” The first elder of the Hong family didn’t expect that the other party would not give him any face. However, in fear of Zi Yu’s pressure, he didn’t dare to say anything to annoy the other party. He only secretly hated his own family’s poor judgment. Of all the people they could provoke, why did they have to provoke such a difficult enemy! Wasn’t this forcing the Hong family to a dead end?

“First elder Hong, you can go back now.” Zi Yu laughed and asked him to leave.

“Then we’ll take our leave first.” The first elder of the Hong family said helplessly after a long silence. Then, he helped elder Shan, who had been sitting on the ground in a daze, up and left liuxiang residence with a depressed heart ...
