Chu Yunfan bowed and said, "Greetings to the Marquis of Zhongxin, greetings to the Matriarch!"
"This child is still so courteous!"
The Matriarch said with a smile. She looked at Chu Yunfan with an extremely benevolent gaze, as if she was looking at her young son who had been reborn.
After everyone recovered from their shock, they didn't say anything because they were already used to this scene. The Matriarch's favoritism for Chu Yunfan wasn't something that had happened in a day or two.
Only Chu Xiujie gnashed his teeth. Even he, her own grandson, couldn't receive this kind of honor. What right did an outsider like Chu Yunfan have?
Chu Yunfan didn't decline and directly sat down next to the Matriarch. From time to time, he would chat with the Matriarch.
Although Chu Yunfan also knew why the Matriarch was so good to him, being good to him was being good to him. Especially during the past year when Chu Yunfan was at his weakest, she had shielded Chu Yunfan from the wind and rain. Chu Yunfan was extremely grateful.
"Everyone, today's banquet is held for two reasons. One is to gather with everyone, we haven't seen each other in a while. The other is a late welcoming banquet. This time, we have a group of guests from the capital!"
The Marquis of Zhongxin stood up and looked at everyone.
"Today is a family banquet. Everyone, don't be restrained. Eat and drink to your heart's content!"
Following the Marquis of Zhongxin's words, the kitchen began to serve the dishes. They had already been prepared. Everyone began to exchange cups and toasts. In an instant, the entire atmosphere was very lively.
After three rounds of drinking and eating, everyone was full. Suddenly, one of the noble sons stood up and said to everyone, "Everyone, we have long heard from the capital that Dragon City has many outstanding people and experts. However, it seems that this is not the case. We have already seen two of the so-called heir candidates from the Marquis of Zhongxin's manor. Whether it is Chu Haoyu or Chu Hongcai, they have both disappointed us. However, we have heard that there is also a Chu Yunfan with outstanding strength. I wonder if he dares to come up and give us some pointers?"
Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, this noble's face was red, but the words he spoke were overbearing. Everyone couldn't help but put down their chopsticks with a bit of anger on their faces.
This was putting down his bowl and cursing. He did not care about the Manor of Marquis Zhongxin at all.
This was even more so for Chu Haoyu and Chu Hongcai. They were glaring at him furiously. Being defeated so easily was a great humiliation to them.
"Don't brag so much. Didn't Xu Feng get crippled by a kick yesterday? If the people from the capital were this powerful, this wouldn't have happened! "Chu Hongcai said bluntly.
This time, it was the Imperial Capital's nobles' turn to have their faces turn ugly. This was clearly a slap to their faces!
The young man's face turned even redder. He looked directly at Chu Yunfan and said, "Chu Yunfan, do you dare to come out and accept the challenge?"
Chu Yunfan put down his chopsticks, stood up slowly and said, "They're just a bunch of clowns!"
"What did you say?" This time, the nobles' nobles all exploded in anger. Chu Yunfan actually dared to be so arrogant.
"Yunfan, don't go!"
The old woman spoke. She was worried about Chu Yunfan. Although she was old, she wasn't muddle-headed. She could naturally see that these people were here to cause trouble.
"Do you people have nothing better to do? You dared to come out after eating our Manor of Marquis Zhongxin. Guards, chase them all out!"
The old woman directly spoke. She had been the ruler of the manor's inner courtyard for so many years, and had long since developed a kind of natural might.
After hearing the old woman's words, the surrounding guards all stepped forward.
When the Marquis Zhongxin saw this, he didn't stop them, nor did he say anything. He only looked at Chu Yunfan with a smile that wasn't a smile, waiting to see how he would handle this.
Chu Yunfan only smiled faintly and said, "Old Madam, please sit down. There is no need for you to take action against these clowns!"
He didn't care about these people at all. The old woman was worried about him, so she directly interfered. However, the old woman still underestimated him.
"Since you want to compete, then wait for me!"
As Chu Yunfan spoke, he directly walked towards a tree at the side.
Just as everyone was wondering what Chu Yunfan was going to do, they saw Chu Yunfan cut a branch from a tree at the side. Then, they saw him use his finger as a sword and easily cut off the surrounding branches and leaves.
In just a moment, even the skin was cut off, turning it into a stick.
Then, only then did Chu Yunfan slowly walk back to the center. Holding this stick that was taller than a person, he said, "Okay, we can begin!"
"Chu Yunfan, it's too late for you to make a last-minute effort now. Moreover, it's just a wooden stick. Are you kidding me?" That noble disciple looked at Chu Yunfan's actions and immediately became furious. Chu Yunfan was looking down on him. It was just a wooden stick. They weren't ordinary people. Not to mention this kind of slender ordinary wooden stick, even if it was a towering tree, he could completely age it with one finger.
"To deal with trash like you, a wooden stick is enough!"
Chu Yunfan said faintly.
Everyone looked at Chu Yunfan strangely. They saw it, but where was this person?
However, they saw Chu Yunfan continue unhurriedly, "How about this, if any of you are not convinced by me, you can all stand out and come at me together. I'm in a hurry!"
I'm in a hurry!
Everyone was dumbfounded. They had seen people who looked down on others before, but they had never seen someone who looked down on others like this. What kind of a hurry is this?!
Chu Hongcai gave him a thumbs-up. Brother Fan really is different. Even when he's putting on airs, he does it in such a refreshing and refined manner. I'll remember this sentence so that I can use it when I act pretentious in the future.
Without a doubt, Chu Yunfan's words had completely infuriated those noble disciples. Apart from Chang Shenghong, who didn't make a move because of his status, the others all rushed to the center.
At this time, they couldn't care less about bullying someone with numbers. The alcohol had kicked in, and after hearing Chu Yunfan's words, they all wanted to teach Chu Yunfan a good lesson.
At this time, under the Marquis of Zhongxin's signal, a few experts hurriedly walked over and laid down a barrier.
If these experts weren't on guard against each other, the entire Marquis of Zhongxin's estate would be torn apart.
These noble disciples surrounded Chu Yunfan. Chu Yunfan only held a wooden stick in his hand. As he looked at these people, a hint of a cold smile appeared on his face.
"Attack! Let him know how powerful we are!"
Someone among these noble disciples shouted. As if they had received an order, they all pounced at Chu Yunfan.
