Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil

"Revenge!" Dong Kunhu snorted, "Last night, Bei Qianhong and the other two gathered nearly three hundred thugs to block the person who hurt you in the back alley. Do you know what the final result was?"

Dong Yunye was stunned, his heart filled with joy. Nearly three hundred thugs, one punch each, would be enough to knock Ye Qingfeng over. But seeing Dong Kunhu's expression, something seemed off.

"Nearly three hundred people, all taken down by him alone. Bei Qianhong, Xi Tingfeng, and Nan Qingxun each had a leg broken, and now they're lying in hospital beds!"

Dong Kunhu said in a deep voice.

"What?"

Dong Yunye opened his mouth, and his mother beside him was equally shocked.

One person taking down nearly three hundred people, and crippling the sons of the Northern, Western, and Southern families — how terrifying is that?

"Dad, since fighting doesn't work, then use official power. He's a villain; the police can arrest him!"

After a long while, Dong Yunye finally came to his senses, speaking frantically.

He was willing to resort to any means necessary as long as he could avenge Ye Qingfeng.

"Idiot!" Dong Kunhu said in a low voice, "Not to mention that the Duan Family still has some official connections, just the fact that you gathered so many thugs causing a commotion in the back alley would implicate all of our families. This is a gang activity, understand?"

As the Family Head of the Dong Family, he naturally had a far-reaching vision, different from these spoiled young heirs.

Dong Yunye's mother looked upset, sobbing, "So, are we just going to let this go?"

Dong Kunhu looked at Dong Yunye's completely twisted legs and sighed. He knew that even if Dong Yunye recovered, he would never walk as smoothly as before.

"Of course we're not letting it go!" Dong Kunhu said coldly, "That kid named Ye Qingfeng is very arrogant, saying he'll wait for us at the family assembly in three days. At that time, I want to see if he truly has any remarkable abilities."

He continued, "No matter how good he is at fighting, he cannot save the falling Duan Family, and no matter how good he is, can he be better than the renowned Lord Dao?"

"Lord Dao?" The woman was startled, saying with some panic, "You got Lord Dao?"

Dong Kunhu nodded slightly, "It's not just me who asked; the heads of the four other families and I visited him together, only then did Lord Dao agree to step in for us."

Hearing the words "Lord Dao," Dong Yunye was also overjoyed. This "Lord Dao" was exceptionally skilled and highly esteemed, with great fame in the central region of the Northern Base, commanding respect across the nation. It was rumored that even the Family Heads of Yanjing's elite families could only converse with "Lord Dao" as equals.

For such a figure, the Five Major Families actually managed to invite him.

"Haha, with Lord Dao willing to step in, that arrogant kid is doomed!"

He couldn't wait to see Ye Qingfeng's arrogant and flamboyant face get torn apart.

Dong Kunhu looked at the distant sky, his eyes growing cold.

"Hmph, with Lord Dao here, what waves can the Duan Family possibly stir?"

"Ye Qingfeng? Just because of some skills, you think you can challenge the Five Major Families? When Lord Dao arrives, you'll know how big this world is!"

Duan Family, Duan Yu and Liu Xu stared at each other with wide eyes, then both looked at Ye Qingfeng, who was admiring the flowers in the garden.

"Xiao Feng, did you really... beat up the Jinling Four Young Masters?"

Liu Xu was still somewhat incredulous. Those were the Jinling Four Young Masters. Even though she was the Second Young Madam of the Duan Family, she had to retreat a little when facing those Demon Lords of Mayhem.

"That's right, cousin is simply like a god. Not just that, he single-handedly challenged over two hundred people. That scene, even now, thinking about it feels like a dream!"

Ye Qingfeng didn't respond, Duan Su was already there bragging. In all these years, he had never admired anyone as much as he did Ye Qingfeng. Ye Qingfeng was the only one.

"Xiao Feng, what happened?"

Liu Mei's eyebrows furrowed slightly. She also found it hard to believe that her nephew could take on hundreds by himself.

"Aunt Liu, it's no big deal. They were just looking for trouble, so I taught them a casual lesson!"

Ye Qingfeng spoke lightly, as if he had just schooled some kittens and puppies.

Duan Yu and Liu Xu stopped speaking. If one didn't know better, they would think Ye Qingfeng merely threw a few punches at some people, but in reality, he directly crippled a few people's legs. Was that a casual lesson?

Ye Qingfeng didn't mind, he turned to Duan Yu and smiled, "Uncle, in two days, it will be the Jinling City family assembly. The Five Major Families along with the three newly established families, including the Duan Family, will be present. By then, I will resolve everything at once."

His tone was calm, yet carried an unmistakable air of authority.

Duan Yu and Liu Xu exchanged glances, neither knowing where Ye Qingfeng got the confidence to say such things. But with Liu Mei present, they couldn't directly question Ye Qingfeng's boasting.

Two days passed in a flash. On this day, countless men in suits and sunglasses stood with their hands behind their backs outside the Central Hotel in Jinling City, exuding extraordinary presence.

Many passersby pointed and talked, knowing that surely some powerful figures were gathering here.

This was the venue for the Jinling City family assembly.

The hotel's inner hall was spacious. The heads or representatives of numerous large and small families in Jinling City gathered here, sitting around. In the center of the hall was a large round table with only eight seats, and Duan Yu was seated on one of the chairs.

Though his expression didn't change, he already felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. The malicious gazes and whispers around him made him feel like he was on pins and needles.

His elder brother, having implicated the family by committing a grave mistake, was barred from participating in any of the Duan Family's current affairs. The old master of the Duan Family was bedridden with anger, leaving all the burdens on his shoulders.

Ye Qingfeng leaned leisurely on a chair in the corner, hands behind his head, looking relaxed, while Duan Su sensed the heavy atmosphere, appearing very tense.

Liu Mei and Liu Xu sat in a row; they were insignificant and couldn't make a difference, only here to make up numbers.

Duan Yu looked solemn. He was very aware that after today, the Duan Family might no longer exist and would be erased from the high society of Jinling City.

He came this time hoping only to secure some last benefits for the Duan Family, to have a chance to make a comeback. As for what Ye Qingfeng said, he hadn't taken it to heart.

The Five Major Families working together would make even provincial dignitaries step back.

How could a youth possibly reverse the situation and free the Duan Family from an impending downfall?

"Duan Laoer, you're here early!"

Outside the door, two middle-aged men walked in side by side, greeting Duan Yu.

Following them were Ning Huanhuan and Liu Peng, clearly marking them as the Family Heads of the Liu Family and the Ning Family.

"Mr. Liu, Mr. Ning!"

Duan Yu put on a bitter smile. Previously, he could still chat and laugh with the two, but now the gap had become enormous.

Though the two families weren't as entrenched as the old Five Major Families, they were prospering greatly, and compared to the declining Duan Family, they were like towering trees.
