Chapter 86: Chapter 86: The Hu Family Treasure Vault as Compensation

"A Grandmaster cannot be insulted!" Though Lord’s words were simple, they carried significant weight to everyone present.

In the Cultivation Realm, the rules were clear; Lord was the authority, and generally, whatever he said was law.

"What should we do then?" Elder Hu furrowed his brows, asking worriedly.

According to Lord’s words, he understood that a Grandmaster’s disgrace would mean inevitable consequences.

It was very likely that the entire Hu Family could end up as collateral damage.

Therefore, the Hu Family dared not gamble, not willing to risk the family’s life and death on a bet.

"Leave this matter to me." In response to Elder Hu’s words, Lord slowly replied, "Let me meet him."

"However, the Hu Family Treasure Vault certainly cannot be preserved; everything good inside must be used as compensation."

"What? Compensate with the entire Hu Family Treasure Vault? Isn’t that too much?"

"Indeed! Even for a Grandmaster, there’s no need to compensate so much, right?"

Upon hearing the Hu Family’s entire treasure vault needed to be compensated, the other Hu family members couldn’t sit still.

"A Grandmaster’s anger isn’t so easily appeased, is it? Since you think the entire vault isn’t necessary, then go ahead and handle it yourselves, I’ll wash my hands of it." Lord responded, ready to leave.

Before leaving, he cautioned, "However, let me be clear, if the Grandmaster is left dissatisfied, the consequences will be very severe."

After saying that, Lord turned and left.

"We’ve agreed, let’s compensate with the Hu Family Treasure Vault." At this moment, Elder Hu spoke up.

With Elder Hu’s decision, the matter was settled. Lord was to take the Hu Family Treasure Vault to Jiangcheng to apologize to Ye Feng...

The happenings within the Hu Family quickly reached Xu Teng’s ears.

Upon receiving the news, Xu Teng hurried to Ye Feng, excitedly saying, "Uncle, the Hu Family has sent Lord Hu as a representative, carrying a lot of items urgently headed to Jiangdong."

"By now, they should already be on the exclusive plane and will likely arrive in Jiangcheng soon."

"Is the Hu Family preparing to apologize and compensate?" Ye Feng was a bit surprised hearing Xu Teng’s words.

Originally, Ye Feng thought the Hu Family would rely on their power to contend with him.

But unexpectedly, the other party conceded so quickly, truly decisive.

"Is there any doubt? Seeing Uncle’s prowess, they wouldn’t dare not to apologize, would they?" Xu Zhan nodded triumphantly, adding a flattering comment.

After witnessing Ye Feng’s terrifying strength, everyone in the Xu Family had utmost respect for him.

But only Xu Zhan sincerely worshipped Ye Feng inside.

This was because Xu Zhan was a War General, an expert in the war zone, and naturally, he worshipped powerful figures.

Seeing Ye Feng’s formidable strength, his admiration for Ye Feng far exceeded others.

As he gazed at Ye Feng, his eyes sparkled.

"What do you think the Hu Family will bring?" Ye Feng smiled, somewhat looking forward to the compensation.

If the items were good enough, then that would be acceptable.

But if the Hu Family was ignorant and brought junk to fool Ye Feng, he wouldn’t be polite.

The Xu Family people dared not speculate on what exactly the Hu Family would bring.

Soon, Lord Hu arrived outside the Xu Family Mansion, and while reporting, he stood obediently without daring to act rashly.

Behind him, several Hu family servants carried more than a dozen large and small boxes, seemingly quite sincere.

After receiving the news, Lord led his people cautiously into the mansion.

Entering the mansion, Lord glanced at Ye Feng and others waiting inside, furrowing his brows.

The other Xu Family members were ordinary, which seemed normal to Lord.

However, looking at Ye Feng, he appeared somewhat puzzled.

According to the intelligence, the Xu Family was backed by a Young Grandmaster.

Although Ye Feng’s age matched, his cultivation base was only that of an Intermediate Martial Master, leaving Lord perplexed.

’Could it be that besides the Grandmaster, the Xu Family also has an Intermediate Martial Master as a patron? When did the Xu Family become so powerful?’

After a brief speculation, Lord tentatively asked, "May I ask, where is the Xu Family’s Grandmaster?"

"Are you blind? My young master is right here, isn’t he?" Hearing this, Xu Kun came to Ye Feng, expressing some disdain.

Hearing Xu Kun’s words, Lord furrowed his brows and asked Ye Feng, "Are you the Grandmaster the Xu Family speaks of?"

"Don’t I look like one?" Ye Feng smiled, retorting.

"Since when did an Intermediate Martial Master count as a Grandmaster? You better call out the Grandmaster!" Lord shook his head, replying irritably, "Our Hu Family has come with sincerity this time, and we will not tolerate any insult."

"Haha!" Ye Feng chuckled, then unleashed a terrifying Wind Blade, slashing toward Lord.

Perceiving the terrifying Wind Blade, Lord was shocked and hurriedly tried to evade.

However, before he could move, he felt a chill above his head as an unknown energy whisked by.

Simultaneously, tufts of hair floated down from his head.

At this moment, Lord was utterly terrified, filled with dread, frightening him greatly.

Originally, he thought that even if he wasn’t a match for a Grandmaster, the difference wouldn’t be too vast.

But with Ye Feng’s move, he realized Ye Feng truly was a Grandmaster, and in front of this Young Grandmaster, he didn’t even have a chance to dodge.

If Ye Feng’s Wind Blade had been a bit lower, he would have lost his life on the spot, with absolutely no second possibility.

"How about now?" Seeing the frightened expression on the counterpart’s face, Ye Feng sneered, asking again.

"Forgive me, Grandmaster, it was me, Xu Tian, who failed to recognize the towering figure, please spare my life." Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Xu Tian quickly knelt, loudly pleading for mercy.

"Stand up! Explain what the Hu Family means by this." Seeing his frightened state, Ye Feng spoke impatiently, showing no interest in pursuing the matter.

"Thank you, Grandmaster!" After expressing his respect, Xu Tian stood up and slowly responded, "Reporting to the Grandmaster, initially, the Hu Family wasn’t planning to offer heavy compensation."

"But under my persuasion, the Hu Family is offering their entire treasure vault as a plea for mercy, Grandmaster, please have a look..."

While explaining, Xu Tian signaled for the boxes to be all opened.

As the boxes were fully opened, Ye Feng was taken aback.

Inside the boxes, not only were there large amounts of gold and silver treasures, but also plenty of antiques and paintings.

That wasn’t the key part; crucially, there were also numerous cultivation resources inside.

Indeed, there were many cultivation resources within the Hu Family’s treasure vault.

Seeing so many good things, Ye Feng couldn’t help but approach, feeling very excited.

Surely, if he were to collect these himself, it would require a significant amount of time and effort, but who would have thought the Hu Family would send so many good things to him...
