Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 762 - 736: Kneel down and apologize with a kowtow!
Hong Qingyan carefully confirmed the message on the Message Talisman, and then, without hesitation, immediately stood up and flew towards the square.
At this moment, Ye Feng's teaching on the square was reaching its end, and the numerous subordinates, after listening, were all frowning in thought, evidently reflecting on and trying to comprehend what Ye Feng had talked about these past three days.
"Big Brother Ye, I've encountered a bit of a situation on my end. Are you available right now?" Hong Qingyan said after she appeared in the square.
"What happened?" Ye Feng asked as he stood up and walked over.
"It's regarding the Ancient Hong Clan. It's not quite convenient to talk about it here. Let's go to the back courtyard to discuss," Hong Qingyan said with a somewhat flustered expression.
Ye Feng nodded, and then the two of them went to the pavilion in the back courtyard.
"What has happened to the Hong Family of the Ancient Clan?" Ye Feng asked.
Hong Qingyan pondered for a moment before speaking, "I just received a message saying that my father, in his secluded cultivation, was in a hurry to break through to the Yin-Yang Realm, but something went wrong, he deviated, and now he's in critical condition, possibly unable to last a few more days!"
Ye Feng frowned upon hearing this and asked, "Who sent you the message?"
Hong Qingyan shook her head, "I don't know, it was a message from a stranger, and it only told me about this matter, nothing more," she said.
Ye Feng's brows knitted tightly as he fell deep into thought.
In fact, he knew that though Qingyan did not have strong feelings for the Ancient Hong Clan, she was, after all, from the Hong Family, and as the saying goes, blood is thicker than water. No matter what, she still had some feelings for her father in Hong Tianguo.
"Qingyan, what do you intend to do?" Ye Feng asked after some thought.
Hong Qingyan sighed, "I don't know. He is my father by blood and reason, and I should pay him a visit. But I know that the Hong Family has always been at odds with you, and I even suspect that this is likely a trap they've set on purpose, aiming to lure me back to the Ancient Hong Clan."
Ye Feng slightly nodded, "Not ruling out that possibility, after all, that ancestor Hong Wuji of the Hong Family, has always wanted me dead," he said.
However, as he spoke, Ye Feng's brow quirked up, and he said, "But what if this is true? If your father really is suffering from deviation in his Martial Practice and his days are numbered, not being able to see him for one last time as his daughter, you might feel remorseful."
Ye Feng understood Hong Qingyan very well, as she was his wife after all.
Hong Qingyan has always been pure-hearted and kind, even excessively so. If this event were to cast a shadow over her heart, she might even face the risk of developing a Heart Demon in the future, which would undoubtedly have a very large impact on her cultivation.
"Then how about this, Big Brother Ye, I'll go back alone," Hong Qingyan suggested. "Whether it's true or not, as long as you don't accompany me, they will have no way to proceed with their plans."
This indeed seemed like a good idea, but Ye Feng smiled at the suggestion.
"What are you talking about, Qingyan? You're my wife. It's my duty as a husband to accompany my wife on her first visit back home," Ye Feng declared loudly.
"But Big Brother Ye, what if it really is a trap set by the Hong Family?" Hong Qingyan said.
Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively, chuckling, "Even if it's a trap, it's no matter. Speaking of which, as the son-in-law of the Hong Family, it's about time for a visit!"
Hong Qingyan wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Ye Feng, "No time like the present, let's set off now!"
Saying this, he immediately took Hong Qingyan's hand, their figures shimmering, and they left the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, arriving above a small mound on the outside.
The Great Powers' secret agents were still hidden around the area, but upon seeing Ye Feng emerge, they dared not make any rash moves. After all, with Ye Feng's current reputation, he wasn't someone just any Expert of the Golden Core Realm could provoke.
Ye Feng himself couldn't be bothered with these people. After passing some instructions to Elder Bai through a Message Talisman, the two of them flew directly eastward.
In less than half an hour, they had left the Outer Battlefield and reached the East Sea above Earth.
Reaching Earth, Ye Feng definitely felt the gravitational laws lighten and the suppression on him was much less. Of course, the space of Earth was much weaker than that of the Outer Battlefield. Here, a light punch from him might be enough to create a hole in space.
"Big Brother Ye, the Hong Family has messaged me again, saying that their people are waiting in the Northern Cloud Residence," Hong Qingyan said, and then suddenly added, "Looking at it this way, Big Brother Ye, this is very likely a deliberate trap set by the Hong Family. They are trying to lure me into it."
Ye Feng merely smiled faintly upon hearing this and said, "What's the harm if they try to ensnare me? Who ends up catching whom is still up for debate!"
If this had been three months ago, Ye Feng may have been somewhat concerned, but after three months of cultivation, his Technique of the Three Thousand Acupoints was nearing Great Perfection, and with the transformation of his Mental Power Nucleus, as well as treasures like the Sword of Royal Authority and the Royal Authority Divine Seal, it wouldn't matter even if this were a trap laid by the Hong Family!
In this realm, there weren't many who could stop Ye Feng now!
"Let's go, back to the Northern Cloud Residence!" Ye Feng said in a deep voice, promptly taking Hong Qingyan with him as they broke through the sky. On Earth, he could almost achieve Void Teleportation, and in just a few breaths' time, moved from the East Sea to the Northern Cloud Residence.
"People from the Ancient Hong Clan did indeed come!" Just a slight probe from Ye Feng, and everything within Northern Cloud Residence was within his sight.
This time, the people from the Ancient Hong Clan were none other than three elders - Hong Tianze, Hong Dize, and Hong Renze.
Speaking of which, there had been no small conflict between Ye Feng and these three elders of the Hong Clan in the past. Back in the capital city, before Ye Feng had stepped into the Cultivation of the Golden Core Realm, these three elders had clashed with him and even set up a Great Formation in an attempt to hunt down Ye Feng.
At that time, it was for this reason that Long Nannan forcibly initiated her dragon transformation, and Hong Qingyan also forcibly used the ancient bloodline's Wings of Light heritage.
"Who would have thought that these three old fogeys would actually dare to come knocking on the door!" Ye Feng let out a faint cold laugh, then descended into the courtyard.
In the reception hall, Hong Tianze and the other two men, upon seeing Ye Feng and Hong Qingyan's sudden return, immediately stood up.
The hot-tempered Hong Dize was the first to speak in a deep voice, "Just as I thought, you, surnamed Ye, have finally returned. And you, Hong Qingyan, I thought you would neglect your father's life and death, but now it seems you are not completely heartless and disloyal."
Hong Qingyan frowned slightly, but for the moment didn't know how to respond.
Ye Feng, however, looked at the three men and coldly laughed, "I really didn't expect that now, in the face of me, you old fool still cannot rein in your temper. And you three old fogeys, who struck out at me that day, actually dared to come knocking today, your gall is indeed not small!"
Hong Dize spoke gravely, "Surnamed Ye, we have heard about the commotion you caused on the Outer Battlefield. It must be said, your talent is indeed exceptional, but do not forget that behind us is the Ancient Hong Clan, our ancestor is the Hall Master of the Xuanyuan Hall on the Outer Battlefield!"
Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh upon hearing these words, and with a taunting smile, he said, "Indeed, your ancestor Hong Wuji is one of the Four Hall Masters of Xuanyuan Hall, but so what? Even Hong Wuji himself wouldn't dare speak to me like this, let alone you!"
"You, surnamed Ye, truly have a big mouth, to dare not take even our Hong Clan Ancestor seriously!" Hong Dize and Hong Renze were instantly enraged.
In fact, regarding what Ye Feng had done on the Outer Battlefield over the past year, although people on Earth had heard about it, most had only heard rumors and didn't have the full picture. For instance, people like Hong Dize and Hong Renze heard about Ye Feng's deeds mostly through the descendants of the Ancient Hong Clan who returned from the Outer Battlefield.
These descendants of the Ancient Hong Clan originally looked down upon Ye Feng, and inevitably would belittle him subjectively when speaking of him, leading to the misunderstanding that, whether it was the Hong Clan, the Bu Family, or people from the Nine Great Sects of Ancient Martial Arts, none knew how powerful Ye Feng truly was.
Otherwise, these three elders of the Hong Clan wouldn't dare speak to him in such a manner, even if they had a hundred times more courage.
Hong Tianze was somewhat more even-tempered and waved his hand, "Ye Feng, the clan leader's life is at stake. I don't want to talk about the previous grudges here and now. Since you've rushed back from the Outer Battlefield, it's naturally because Qingyan wants to see her father one last time. In that case, let's hurry on our way."
Hong Renze said in a deep voice, "Our Ancient Hong Clan Territory is extremely concealed. If not out of consideration for Hong Qingyan not being able to find us, do you think I would be willing to come here to meet you?"
Hong Dize also coldly snapped, "That's right. Don't really think we wanted to come to meet you. Do you really think, just because you've been to the Outer Battlefield once, you see yourself as someone important?"
Hong Tianze waved his hands and said, "That's enough from you two. Regardless, Hong Qingyan is the clan leader's daughter, and Ye Feng is now our son-in-law in the Hong Clan. You should speak less, just follow the ancestor's instructions and bring the two of them back, that's all."
At that point, Hong Tianze stepped aside and gestured, "The clan leader's condition is not optimistic. Please come with us."
Ye Feng, however, stood in place and said coldly, "I can go with you, but before we go, I want those two to do something."
After speaking, Ye Feng extended his hand, pointing toward the two elders, Hong Dize and Hong Renze.
"You want them to do something, what do you want them to do?" inquired Hong Tianze.
"Kneel down, kowtow to apologize, and considering Qingyan's feelings, I'll let you two off the hook. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!" Ye Feng articulated each word.
"What did you say? You want us to kneel down and kowtow to you? Did I hear that right? Have you gone mad or simply out of your mind? You truly have some nerve!" Hong Dize gnashed his teeth as he shouted angrily.
"Surnamed Ye, I think since you've come out from the Outer Battlefield, you've become recklessly arrogant. You think, in over a year, only you have made progress, and we have not become stronger? I'll tell you, we are not necessarily afraid of you in a real fight!" bellowed Hong Renze in fury as well.
Ye Feng spoke in a frosty voice, "Kneel or not, you have ten seconds to decide!"
"Decide my foot, I'll tell you, lad, had it not been for the ancestor's orders before coming here, forbidding us from acting rashly, otherwise, I would have already struck you down..."
But before the two could finish speaking, Ye Feng's gaze sharpened, as he suddenly shouted coldly, "Kneel down!"
As he spoke, two surges of momentum burst forth from Ye Feng towards Hong Dize and Hong Renze.
Just as Hong Dize and Hong Renze intended to fight back, their expressions changed drastically in the next moment, for they suddenly felt as though a terrifying mountain was pressing down upon their heads, leaving them no room for resistance, and they fell to their knees with a thud.
Yet that was not all, the fearsome momentum rushed into their bodies and shattered Hong Dize and Hong Renze's dantians, and even their Eight Extraordinary Meridians were broken.
Pfft...
Both spat blood on the spot and nearly fainted.
With just the outburst of his aura, Ye Feng had broken the meridians and destroyed the dantians of two elders of the Ancient Clan that were about to enter the Golden Core Realm. Hong Tianze, who was beside them, was scared stiff on the spot, feeling a chill running down his spine.
"You… you actually, you've crippled us, you… you've got some nerve!" Hong Dize and Hong Renze gritted their teeth and screamed.
Ye Feng stared at them, saying coldly, "Two ants who haven't even reached the Golden Core Realm dared to be so arrogant and presumptuous in front of me. If you dare utter one more word, you'll be killed without mercy!"
Although Hong Dize and Hong Renze were filled with rage and humiliation, upon seeing the terrifying intent to kill in Ye Feng's eyes, and the strong force emanating from his body, they finally did not dare to say another word. freēnovelkiss.com
"Lead the way ahead!" Ye Feng waved his Great Hand, radiating an air of majestic disdain.
