"You … You're slandering me! The Dongfang Family is the richest family in the world. Why would we need to steal your money?"
Dongfang Haotian was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Frankly speaking, he really didn't know what the younger generation of the Dongfang Family had done. He only knew that his grandson was indeed in contact with the Dragon Emperor, but he didn't know the specifics. Besides, the Dongfang Family had many businesses in the Divine Realm, so they weren't short of money at all.
As an elder, he certainly wasn't short of money. However, the younger generation was short of money and wanted to make some for themselves. Young Master Dongfang wasn't the only one involved in this matter. Several members of the Dongfang Family and the Chun Yu Family were also involved in this matter. Some of them had worked with their two partners to obtain cash from Du Feng's shop, while others had used fake contracts to defraud a lot of goods.
In short, Du Feng had produced a lot of evidence that could prove that the Dongfang Family and the Chun Yu Family had caused huge losses to his business over the years. Not only that, but it could also prove that his two partners were actually spies sent by the Dongfang Family and the Chun Yu Family. Therefore, now that the two of them had disappeared, it was most likely that they had been silenced by them to destroy the evidence.
"The Dongfang Family is really ruthless. You even sacrificed your own grandson just to kill someone."
Du Feng still didn't feel satisfied and said that Young Master Dongfang's death was also arranged by the Dongfang Family.
Du Feng was still not satisfied, and said that Young Master Dongfang's death was arranged by the Dongfang family. Who knew if the Dongfang Family had deliberately arranged such a show to destroy the evidence? Perhaps Young Master Dongfang wasn't dead and had been hidden by his grandfather. Who knew if the Dongfang Family had deliberately arranged such a show to destroy the evidence?
"You … You're talking nonsense!"
This time, Dongfang Haotian couldn't hold it in and really vomited blood. His precious grandson's death was already painful enough for him. Now, it was said that he had killed him with his own hands. No one could stand it. However, the various signs provided by Du Feng showed that Young Master Dongfang's death really had nothing to do with them. It seemed like it was done by the Dongfang Family.
This was because Du Feng had been busy outside and had hardly returned to the Holy City. Moreover, his Cultivation couldn't be improved. It could be seen that he had been working hard during this period. Furthermore, the Dongfang Clan had embezzled so much money for so many years. It was impossible for there to be no conflict of interest.
Even Dongfang Haotian himself was confused. Could it really be the doing of the Dongfang family's descendant? Were they colluding with outsiders to get rid of his most beloved grandson? Was it because they were jealous? Was it because they were afraid of fighting over the family property? Was it because …
"Pfft …"
When he thought up to here, he couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood because he was truly too furious. These unfilial descendants actually did such a shameless thing for the sake of some stinky money. Not only did he steal money from other people's shops, but he also did it for so many years. More importantly, the other party left behind evidence. It was simply too embarrassing.
"Old man, if you want to vomit, you should go home and vomit. You've dirtied the ground here."
Du Feng didn't give him any face at all and even made sarcastic remarks at the side. He insisted that the Dongfang Family and the Chun Yu Family had colluded to steal his money and bribe his subordinates. He suggested that the City Lord's Mansion arrest all the guards and interrogate them. They might be able to get some valuable clues.
Du Feng was so confident that he wasn't afraid that the guards would say anything against him. This was because the guards had done a lot of bad things over the years. Not only did they share the money, but they also bullied the Dragon Emperor. Moreover, the two brothers, Chen Tianlei and Arré, were still in the dark.
Therefore, the stricter the City Lord's Mansion's interrogation, the more they would be able to understand the truth of the matter. The truth of the matter was that the Dongfang Family and the Chun Yu Family had really been interfering with the business of Du Feng's shop and obtaining a large amount of money. When the City Lord's Mansion investigated the matter, the two families would have to compensate Du Feng for his losses.
"All of you go back. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
Therefore, this time, Dongfang Haotian had personally come to complain, which was why the City Lord had stepped in. If it had been an ordinary small matter, he would have sent the guard leader to handle it. After all, Dongfang Haotian was an elder of the Dongfang Family and a senior Divine Emperor. His strength was slightly higher than the guard leader, which was why the City Lord was willing to give him face.
Dongfang Haotian himself also felt that the City Lord's Mansion would immediately arrest Du Feng and punish him for his actions. However, this was not the case. Instead, he had been bitten by Du Feng. Now that the City Lord had said that he would investigate this matter strictly, he would definitely handle it impartially and not cover up for the Dongfang Family.
He hadn't expected this to happen. He had originally thought that the Dongfang Family was in the right. Who would have thought that there would be so many unfilial and heartless descendants? If the Dongfang Family was indeed in the wrong after the investigation, how would they have a foothold in the Holy City in the future?
Also, his good relative, the Chun Yu Family, had actually collaborated to do such a thing. What were they thinking?
Dongfang Haotian waved his hand to clean up the blood that had spilled on the ground, then turned around and left the City Lord's Mansion. The first thing he did when he returned was to summon the younger generation. As long as they were people that Du Feng had mentioned in the evidence, they had to confess honestly.
"Kneel!"
At first, the younger generation of the Dongfang Family didn't take it seriously. They thought that the old man was making a mountain out of a molehill. It was just Du Feng's matter. Who did he think he was? He was just an outsider. So what if he was crushed to death? Besides, it was just for some money.
However, when Dongfang Haotian got angry, they all immediately knelt down. They had no choice but to kneel down. The old man's anger was no joke. He could really cripple them.
"Father, Ming 'er is immature. Please forgive him."
"Lin 'er's death can't be blamed on him. It's all that Du kid's fault."
The one who spoke was Dongfang Haotian's son, the father of Young Master Dongfang. It could be said that he had the most say. His two sons, Dongfang Shaolin and Dongfang Shaoming, were both involved in this matter. Moreover, Dongfang Shaolin was killed in the woods outside the city.
It was unknown if it was because his name had the word Lin in it, but he happened to die in the woods outside the city. Interestingly, the word Shao in Shaolin actually meant small. Therefore, he didn't die in the big forest, nor did he die in the Imperial Beast Forest, but in the woods on the outskirts of the city.
As a father, he was the most distressed when his son died. He couldn't let his other son die just because one son died. Therefore, he was the first to stand up and plead for Dongfang Shaoming. The children just wanted some pocket money. There was no need to make such a big deal out of it.
Besides, how much money did Du Feng's shop lose? We'll just compensate him. How much money could a small outsider have in total?
