Chapter 2163: Chapter 2164: Shouldn’t You Be Killed?
In the Dongfang family, in the inner hall, sat more than a dozen people, even Dongfang Jinbao was present. However, Dongfang Jinbao now had his right arm in a sling and plaster, even one of his legs was the same, and there was a crutch placed beside him!
A middle-aged man sat at the head seat, with a square face, thick and dark eyebrows, and an overall kind appearance.
But at this moment, his expression was rather grim.
If Dongfang Shu could see this person, she would definitely recognize him, because he is Dongfang Mingkun, Dongfang Shu’s father, and the current head of the Dongfang family.
The low roar from Ye Xunhuan just now had almost spread throughout the Dongfang family, making them all hear it.
Before, when Dongfang Mingkun saw Dongfang Jinbao return in this state, his heart was already filled with rage. freёwebnoѵel.com
Dongfang Jinbao was his only son, and now being hurt by Ye Xunhuan like this, one can imagine the fury in Dongfang Mingkun’s heart, especially after knowing that his son’s arm could never be healed in this lifetime, his rage only grew uncontrollable, like a volcanic eruption, making Dongfang Mingkun wish he could immediately avenge his son’s injury.
But upon learning that the person who injured Dongfang Jinbao was Ye Xunhuan, Dongfang Mingkun suddenly shriveled like a frost-beaten eggplant.
Especially after hearing Dongfang Jinbao say that Ye Xunhuan will bring Dongfang Shu to the Dongfang family within three days to reclaim everything the family owes Dongfang Shu, Dongfang Mingkun felt even more unease in his heart.
Dongfang Mingkun knew well who Ye Xunhuan was. He was a marshal, one of the top ten overlords of the underground world, and even the national defenders had suffered losses at his hands multiple times.
Moreover, Dongfang Mingkun was somewhat aware of what Ye Xunhuan had been doing recently, and he was quite apprehensive of Ye Xunhuan in his heart.
Even after learning that Ye Xunhuan was coming, Dongfang Mingkun felt as though he was seated on pins and needles, the unease in his heart was palpable.
Now hearing Ye Xunhuan’s low roar, Dongfang Mingkun’s heart involuntarily skipped a beat.
His worst fear had come true, Ye Xunhuan finally arrived.
Then, Dongfang Mingkun exhaled a deep breath, looked at the few people seated before him and said: "Everyone, the Marshal has arrived, I hope you will assist me, Dongfang Mingkun, and not let the Marshal slaughter anyone in my Dongfang family..."
"Don’t worry, Mr. Dongfang, since we’ve accepted your invitation, we won’t let him run amok!" frёewebηovel.cѳm
A man around the same age as Dongfang Mingkun responded immediately.
The next moment, many others echoed in agreement.
Upon hearing the words of the crowd, Dongfang Mingkun exhaled a long breath.
Upon learning from Dongfang Jinbao that Dongfang Shu intended to bring Ye Xunhuan over, Dongfang Mingkun had started seeking help, and these people seated before him were the help he sought.
Among them were people from the Tang family in Sichuan, from the Qingcheng School, as well as other individuals, all gathered to resist Ye Xunhuan.
Though Dongfang Mingkun exhaled a deep breath, the tension and unease in his heart did not lessen.
After all, the person they were facing was Ye Xunhuan, a Marshal, a figure in the underground world who could call the shots and had made the national defenders suffer losses.
This made Dongfang Mingkun have to keep his wits about him, and simultaneously, Dongfang Mingkun was very aware of the life Dongfang Shu and her mother had in the Dongfang family back then, and he knew of Dongfang Shu’s hatred towards the Dongfang family and him!
Now that Dongfang Shu had sought Ye Xunhuan’s support, she could finally reclaim everything the Dongfang family owed her. Now wanting Dongfang Shu to give up, apologize, and let it go, was totally impossible.
Dongfang Shu, with Ye Xunhuan in tow, headed straight for the inner hall of the Dongfang family, and as for the servants outside the Dongfang family, none dared to stop her.
After all, these past few days they had all sensed the oppressive and stifling atmosphere of the Dongfang family, although they didn’t know what had happened, now with Dongfang Shu and Ye Xunhuan arriving, it was probably related to them.
Moreover, many of the older generation in the Dongfang family knew about Dongfang Shu, they knew she was Dongfang Mingkun’s daughter but had never been welcomed by the Dongfang family, and was even often tormented by Wu Lanqin.
Now she had returned, bringing a man with her, and since Ye Xunhuan had declared his intentions the moment he entered, even the foolish couldn’t fail to understand the purpose of Ye Xunhuan and Dongfang Shu’s visit.
Though Dongfang Shu hadn’t returned to the Dongfang family for many years, she did grow up here, and the Dongfang family hadn’t changed much over the years, so she smoothly led Ye Xunhuan to the inner hall of the Dongfang family.
At that moment, Dongfang Mingkun, with others in tow, came out from the inner hall, unexpectedly encountering Dongfang Shu directly!
Despite Dongfang Mingkun’s inner unease, he still needed to maintain a certain demeanor.
Now seeing Dongfang Shu, Dongfang Mingkun’s face immediately darkened: "Rebellious child, what is it, you plan to bring someone to kill me today?"
Dongfang Mingkun spoke in a tone of accusation, because no matter what, Dongfang Mingkun was still considered Dongfang Shu’s father!
Even if he wasn’t a qualified father, he still had the right to question Dongfang Shu.
When Dongfang Shu saw Dongfang Mingkun, scenes from the past immediately rushed into her mind, and a look of hatred appeared on her face.
This hatred seemed to penetrate into her blood, seep into her bones.
Everything started with Dongfang Mingkun. If not for him, none of this would have happened, so Dongfang Mingkun was the true culprit.
Even if he had given Dongfang Shu life, her hatred for him had still reached an extreme.
"So what if I kill you?" Dongfang Shu said through gritted teeth, "Don’t you deserve to die?"
Dongfang Shu’s words carried a strong sense of confrontation, and simultaneously filled the already tense atmosphere with a chilling air of menace!
Dongfang Mingkun’s face immediately turned extremely dark: "You..."
"Dongfang Mingkun, the debts your Dongfang family owed in the past need to be paid!" Dongfang Shu said with full hatred: "What, has the old bastard not come out, is he dead?"
The "old bastard" in Dongfang Shu’s mouth naturally referred to Dongfang Mingkun’s father.
"Brat, it seems you’ve truly grown bold and want to overturn the heavens now..."
