Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil

Liu Mei asked, "Little Duan, is it very troublesome?"

Duan Yu sighed and replied, "Elder sister, you have no idea. Because our elder brother was aggressive, wanting the Duan Family to instantly ascend to the sixth major family position in Jinling City, he fell into the trap of the established Five Major Families. The Duan Family lost a huge sum in compensation, the entire industrial chain collapsed, funds have numerous gaps, and bank loans are of no help. The stock market for the Yan Group keeps falling, and those shareholders are all looking for chances to sell off shares and withdraw!"

"Now, the entire Duan Family's industry has already shrunk by eighty percent!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Mei was shocked; the Duan Family's problems were much more severe than she had imagined — an eighty percent shrinkage of the whole industry, a concept valued in hundreds of billions.

Liu Xu angrily said, "The Five Major Families are too much. Even now, they still won't let the Duan Family go?"

Duan Yu said solemnly, "They are all old foxes, like hungry wolves and leopards. How could they miss such an opportunity to devour the Duan Family's industries? Their goal is to wipe out the Duan Family in Jinling City, leaving us no place to stand!"

Liu Xu was trembling with anger, yet powerless. Even a business titan like Duan Yu can't reverse the situation, let alone a woman like her?

Ye Qingfeng listened on the side, keeping a calm demeanor, but he already had a plan in mind.

"Jinling City's Five Major Families?"

He chuckled coldly in his heart, never expecting his visit to Jinling City to encounter something so interesting.

"Since you want the Duan Family to be removed from Jinling City, then I will make sure the Duan Family rises and stands above you!"

"Dad, Mom, I heard Aunt and Cousin came?"

A young boy suddenly pushed the door open and entered. He was about sixteen, a little immature, and appeared extremely reckless.

"Little Su, how many times have I told you not to be so rough!"

Duan Yu reprimanded in a low voice, and the boy was indeed his nephew, Duan Su.

Duan Su, though only sixteen, had an ingrained talkative nature, repeatedly getting into trouble, yet he was the only heir of this generation of the Duan Family. The old man cherished him greatly, even Duan Yu dared not scold him too harshly.

"Aunt!"

Duan Su, however, didn't care. Seeing Liu Mei, he called out politely.

Besides his mother, he felt closest to his aunt.

"Little Su, you've grown taller. Last time I came back, you seemed to be at school. It's been half a year since we last met!"

Liu Mei smiled and stroked Duan Su's head.

"Eh?"

Duan Su chatted a lot with Liu Mei, then looked up to find Ye Qingfeng standing nearby with a faint smile and was immediately surprised, "Are you Cousin?"

He hadn't seen Ye Qingfeng for years, and over these years, Ye Qingfeng had changed significantly; he almost could not recognize him.

"Yes, it's me!"

Ye Qingfeng nodded with a smile. Although this cousin was mischievous, Ye Qingfeng had personally guided him, so he couldn't shirk responsibility.

"Ah, Cousin, I've missed you. There are so many things you taught me that I haven't tried yet!"

He said that with a cheeky grin, and upon hearing this, Ye Qingfeng awkwardly rubbed his nose.

What he taught Duan Su back then was nothing pleasant.

"Alright, since you're back, take your cousin out to have some fun tonight. You're the host; you should take good care of our guest, understand?"

Liu Xu saw the good relationship between the two and chuckled.

"Sure, how could I not entertain Cousin well?"

Duan Su seemed very happy, with not a trace of worry on his face. Ye Qingfeng glanced at Duan Yu and Liu Xu, understanding in his heart.

It seemed that they hadn't told Duan Su much about the Duan Family's situation. He still felt everything was calm and didn't realize that crisis was imminent.

After dinner at the Duan Family's place, Liu Mei stayed to chat with Liu Xu, while Ye Qingfeng was directly pulled away by Duan Su, driving a flashy Ferrari toward the most bustling backstreet of Jinling City.

They went into a nightclub dance hall, and as soon as they entered, ear-piercing and exciting DJ music drilled into their ears.

Duan Su naturally started following the rhythm, walking and dancing, with Ye Qingfeng following behind, amused.

It had been a long time since he came to a place like this. Now entering, he felt a sense of change.

The dance hall had dazzling lights, filled everywhere with hormones, including pairs of men and women, or even girls together, while on stage, hot dancers twisted their snake-like bodies around poles, drawing numerous gazes below.

"Yo, Little Su, why are you so late today?"

Duan Su brought Ye Qingfeng to a booth, where a man and a woman were already seated. The man was fairly handsome but appeared gaunt, clearly overindulged, while the woman was quite attractive, with light makeup, a slender figure, and strikingly white, beautiful legs that drew wolfish gazes.

In terms of looks, she was only slightly inferior to Bai Wan'er and An Ruoqing, already a stunning beauty amid hundreds.

"Wasn't I dining with my cousin and aunt?" Duan Su smiled and pointed at Ye Qingfeng, "This is my cousin, Ye Qingfeng, from Yanjing."

"Oh?"

The man and woman treated someone from Yanjing more seriously and shook hands with Ye Qingfeng one after another.

Under Duan Su's introduction, Ye Qingfeng quickly learned about the identities of these two people.

The boy was Liu Peng from the Jinling City Liu Family, and the girl was Ning Huanhuan, the Ning Family's legitimate daughter.

The Liu Family and Ning Family, like the Duan Family, were newly rising major families in Jinling City. Because they were close in age, the three had a good relationship and often hung out together to have fun.

Ning Huanhuan glanced at Ye Qingfeng with interest; it was the first time she had seen such a handsome man.

Although Ye Qingfeng wore ordinary clothes, he had a very unique temperament. In this noisy and lively dance hall, he seemed to stand out, not fitting in with his surroundings at all.

Duan Su chatted and drank with the two, while Ye Qingfeng said nothing, just focusing on drinking.

"Little Su!"

After more than ten minutes, a girl of sixteen or seventeen finally arrived. Seeing Duan Su, she immediately exclaimed with delight.

Duan Su also showed happiness, making some room for her, and the girl nonchalantly squeezed into the same chair with him.

"Come, Xiao Xi, let me introduce someone. This is my cousin, Ye Qingfeng!"

Xiao Xi had a very cute appearance, though not as striking as Ning Huanhuan, but not far behind. Her big curious eyes looked at Ye Qingfeng, and she immediately smiled, "Hello, Cousin. I'm Ruan Xiaoxi, Little Su's girlfriend!"

"Girlfriend?"

Ye Qingfeng was a bit embarrassed. Duan Su was only sixteen and already had a girlfriend, and judging by the way they acted, it was clear they had been together for quite some time.

He lightly shook hands with Ruan Xiaoxi and smiled, "Hello there!"

Ruan Xiaoxi returned to her seat and softly whispered to Duan Su, "Your cousin is so handsome, much more than those male celebrities!"

Duan Su pointed at himself, feeling a bit proud, "Of course, look whose cousin he is!"
