"You're still too naive in front of me!"
Qiu Gang Yi, the Second Master of Qiu Clan, said disdainfully. He looked at Duan Lingtian condescendingly as though he was a superior looking down on a subordinate.
Duan Lingtian was displeased by this.
"You think I'm still too naive in front of you?"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes as a cold glint flashed in his eyes. His tone was much deeper than before.
If someone familiar with Duan Lingtian was here, they would be able to tell based on Duan Lingtian's reaction that Duan Lingtian was furious.
Duan Lingtian was furious.
"What? Are you doubting my words? "
Qiu Gang Yi sneered when he saw Duan Lingtian was displeased with his words. His eyes were filled with disdain as he looked at Duan Lingtian. A hint of arrogance could be seen in his eyes.
"Qiu Gang Yi! That's enough! "
Qiu Mu Qing who was standing behind Duan Ling Tian took a step forward and stood next to Duan Ling Tian. She raised her beautiful eyebrows, and the coldness on her beautiful face intensified as she spoke in a low voice.
"Hurmph!"
Duan Lingtian snorted as the Sun Saint Energy in his body surged. He was ready to teach Qiu Gang Yi a lesson.
Was it him or the Dong Fang Clan who was not to be trifled with?!
Duan Lingtian's robe fluttered as he prepared to attack.
"Second Master!"
At this moment, an anxious voice rang from outside Qiu Mu Qing's residence. "Master, you're in the Imperial Residence.
Based on the voice, it was obvious the person was not looking for Qiu Mu Qing. Instead, he was looking for Qiu Gang Yi, the Second Master of Qiu Clan.
Qiu Mu Qing's eyes turned even colder when she heard this.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
…
Following that, a series of hurried footsteps rang in the air. Duan Lingtian saw a middle-aged man rushing into the residence.
A middle-aged man barged in anxiously. He ignored Qiu Mu Qing, the owner of the mansion, and rushed to Qiu Gang Yi's side.
"Dongfang Qian, the Clan Leader of the Dong Fang Clan, has brought his second son, Dongfang Zhu, and the Grand Elder and Second Elder of the Dong Fang Clan to the Qiu Clan. They want an explanation from the Qiu Clan!"
The middle-aged man, who was an elder of the Qiu Clan, reported.
The content of his report could also be summarized into one sentence:
The Dong Fang Clan has come to the Qiu clan!
"The Dong Fang Clan?"
Qiu Gang Yi's expression darkened when he heard the middle-aged man's words. His eyes flashed coldly as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and Qiu Mu Qing.
The elders of the Qiu Family who followed Qiu Gang Yi were shocked.
"The people from the Dong Fang Clan are here? Moreover, Dongfang Qian, the Clan Leader of the Dong Fang Clan, is personally leading the group? "
One of the Qiu Clan's elders had a grave expression on his face. He glared at Qiu Mu Qing and said in a deep voice, "Big sister, look at what you've done. It's one thing if you don't want to marry into the Qiu Clan, but you even took in someone who humiliated the Second Young Master of the Dong Fang Clan. You're playing with fire! You're openly making an enemy out of the Dong Fang Clan!"
"In Clarity City, who doesn't know that our Qiu Clan's Eldest Sister is going to marry into the Dongfang Clan? However, today, our Qiu Clan's Eldest Sister openly held a wild man's hand in front of so many people in Clarity City and even brought him back to our Qiu Clan!"
Another Qiu Clan's elder said angrily.
"Not only did she bring him back to the Qiu Clan, but she even placed him in her own residence! This is ridiculous!"
Another Qiu Clan's elder said in a deep voice.
"We have to hand him over to appease the Dong Fang Clan …"
Another Qiu Clan's elder looked at Duan Lingtian and said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, our Qiu Clan will become enemies with the Dong Fang Clan! At that time, the Feng Clan will be able to destroy our Qiu Clan and the Dong Fang Clan one by one and remove both of our clans from Clarity City! "
"Humph! Don't you think you're being too naive? Even if we hand him over, the Dongfang Clan's anger might not be extinguished because of this … After all, this big sister of our Qiu Clan gave the Dongfang Clan a very resounding 'slap'. The Dong Fang Clan won't let this matter rest! "
Some of the elders from the Qiu Clan looked at Qiu Mu Qing angrily. It was obvious that they were blaming her.
They were blaming Qiu Mu Qing for offending the Dong Fang Clan.
"Then, we'll hand both of them over!"
One of the Qiu Clan's elders said.
When the Qiu Clan's elder who had sent a message to Qiu Gang Yi, the Second Master of Qiu Clan, arrived, an uproar broke out.
The Qiu Clan's elders who had remained silent earlier began to cause a commotion.
All of them blamed Qiu Mu Qing as though she had committed a heinous crime.
"Bring both of them to the Main Hall and apologize to the Clan Leader of the Dong Fang Clan. We have to give the Dong Fang Clan an explanation!"
At the same time, Qiu Gang Yi ordered the elders from the Qiu Clan to bring Duan Ling Tian and Qiu Mu Qing to the Qiu Clan's Main Hall to apologize to the Clan Leader of Dongfang Clan.
"Hahahaha!"
At this moment, a loud laugh suddenly rang out and spread out.
The laughter easily drowned out the voices of the Qiu Clan's elders. A few of the Qiu Clan's elders who were about to invite Duan Lingtian and Qiu Mu Qing to the Main Hall stopped in their tracks when they heard Qiu Gang Yi's words.
For a moment, everyone's attention was on the person who had laughed loudly.
The person who had laughed was none other than Duan Lingtian who was standing next to Qiu Mu Qing.
"What are you laughing at?!"
Qiu Gang Yi asked coldly. His expression darkened when he saw Duan Ling Tian bursting out in laughter.
His voice faintly drowned out Duan Ling Tian's unbridled laughter.
Even Qiu Mu Qing looked at Duan Lingtian in confusion. She could not understand why Duan Lingtian was laughing at this moment.
Although she had obtained the promise from her father, the Clan Leader of Qiu Clan, Qiu An Ping, that the Qiu Clan would do its best to protect Duan Ling Tian …
However, based on the current situation, it was completely different from what she had expected.
Qiu Gang Yi and the Qiu Clan's elders seemed to want to send Duan Lingtian away to appease the Eastern Fang Clan.
Moreover, some of the Qiu Clan's elders even wanted to send her away.
Naturally, she knew it was impossible for her to be sent away. Not only could the Qiu Clan not afford to lose face, but even her father would not allow anyone in the Qiu Clan to send her away.
At this moment, she was more worried about Duan Lingtian's safety.
Just when she was worried about Duan Ling Tian's safety, she saw Duan Ling Tian suddenly burst out laughing. His laughter was unbridled as though he was not afraid of anything.
Qiu Mu Qing was puzzled.
She did not know why Duan Ling Tian could still laugh at such a time. Moreover, he laughed so brazenly!
"What are you laughing at?"
Duan Lingtian stopped laughing when he heard Qiu Gang Yi's words. He looked at Qiu Gang Yi and the Qiu Clan's elders behind Qiu Gang Yi and said, "I'm laughing at you.
"I'm laughing at you men for putting the 'responsibility' of protecting the Qiu Family on a woman … In my eyes, men like you who rely on women to such an extent are just a bunch of trash, a bunch of trash!"
Duan Lingtian did not hold back when he spoke. He called Qiu Gang Yi and the Qiu Clan's elders trash!
Trash?
Trash?
Even a person made of clay would not be easily swayed, let alone Qiu Gang Yi and the Qiu Clan's elders.
When they heard Duan Ling Tian's humiliating words, they could not help but be stunned for a moment. They looked at each other and wondered if they had heard wrongly.
However, they soon realized from each other's angry eyes that they had not misheard.
They did not mishear.
Duan Lingtian was indeed insulting them.
Qiu Gang Yi and the Qiu Clan's elders glared at Duan Lingtian coldly.
"You're seeking death, brat!"
"Who do you think you are? How dare you humiliate us by calling us trash! "
"I think you're tired of living!"
…
At this moment, Qiu Gang Yi was not the only one who was glaring at Duan Lingtian. Even the Qiu Clan's elders were glaring at Duan Lingtian fiercely.
It was as though they were ready to attack Duan Lingtian at any time to vent their anger.
Swoosh!
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian felt a gust of wind blowing past his eyes. It was Qiu Mu Qing. She had appeared in front of him and shielded him behind her after she heard Duan Ling Tian's words.
Duan Lingtian's heart was filled with warmth when he saw this.
However, when Duan Lingtian looked at Qiu Mu Qing's back and saw Qiu Gang Yi and the others, a hint of disdain could be seen in his eyes.
"What's wrong? Are you angry because you're embarrassed? "
Duan Lingtian was not afraid when he saw Qiu Gang Yi and the others glaring at him. Instead, he sneered and said, "Or … Do you think I'm wrong?"
Although Qiu Gang Yi and the others were furious when they heard Duan Lingtian's words, they could not refute him.
Even if they did not want to admit it, they could not deny it.
Duan Lingtian was telling the truth.
"I'm sure all of you can't wait to hand me and Sister Qiu over to the Dong Fang Clan …"
Duan Lingtian suddenly changed the topic and said bluntly, "If that's the case, Sister Qiu and I will cooperate with all of you!"
"Duan …"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Qiu Mu Qing immediately turned around. She wanted to stop Duan Lingtian.
However, as soon as she spoke, she was interrupted by Duan Lingtian's overbearing voice.
"Sister Qiu, let's follow them to the Qiu Clan's main hall to meet the people from the Dong Fang Clan. Who knows, maybe the people from the Dong Fang Clan will be merciful and let us live when we arrive at the Qiu Clan's main hall?"
In the end, a hint of mischief could be heard in Duan Ling Tian's tone.
Naturally, Qiu Gang Yi and the others did not notice this.
