"Sir, we, we were unable to stop the four Sovereigns." Two cultivators who were guarding outside the hall lowered their heads and knelt down on one knee in the hall.
"Go and receive your punishment. Thirty whips each!" Du Fan said in a low voice.
"Yes!" The two of them did not dare to beg for mercy. After hearing the thirty whips, they quickly retreated.
This Sir had not taken over this place for long, but his methods and abilities had made everyone on the island revere him. He had always been a man of his word and dealt with matters with lightning speed. He was even more strict in enforcing the law. Because of this, in just a few days, no one on the island dared to be disloyal.
Seeing this, the eyes of the four Sovereigns flashed. No one knew what they were thinking.
"What's the matter?" Du Fan's voice softened. He put down the documents in his hands and leaned back. He picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea.
As for the four Sovereigns, they were not the only ones who did not understand why Du Fan ignored them and did not cause them any trouble. Even the two cultivators who were guarding Du Fan were puzzled.
From the way he handled things and his ability, he should not be afraid of these four people. However, from the first day when he sent someone to summon them over, not a single one of them showed up. Since then, he had treated the four Sovereigns as if they were invisible air. No one knew what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
"Sir Du, although we were summoned by the Phoenix Master to await your orders, from our point of view, with Sir Du's age and experience, you are not qualified to lead us four Sovereigns. So …" Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Du Fan.
"I'm really sorry. You came at the wrong time. I still have guests to meet today. I don't have time to listen to you." As Du Fan spoke, he looked at the four of them and smiled. "If there's nothing else, you can go back first!"
Hearing this, the four of them were stunned. They did not expect him to say such a thing. They had already come all the way here and had even spoken their minds. Could it be that he wouldn't fly into a rage out of humiliation? Or would he fly into a rage and slam the table?
Why would he ask them to go back with a smile and a gentle voice?
For a moment, looking at the smile on his face, their hearts couldn't help but sink. They had a faint premonition, as well as an inexplicable panic.
"Du gongzi, we …" Just as Zhang Xuan was about to speak, he suddenly heard a voice behind him. Turning around, he saw a dozen or so Sovereigns walking over.
"The four of you can go back first! As you can see, I have a guest to see, "Du Fan smiled and put down the teacup, fanning himself with the fan in his hand.
"Send the four of you back," Du Fan said leisurely to the two cultivators beside him.
"Yes." The two cultivators respectfully replied. They stepped forward and gestured to the four people, "Please."
When they saw this, the four of them looked at each other, pursed their lips, and turned around to leave. As the saying goes, don't slap a smiling face. This Du Fan had always been gentle and kind to them. Even if they wanted to use the Mobile Fury, there was nothing they could do.
Moreover, there were more than a dozen Sovereigns present. They could not afford to cause trouble in front of these Sovereigns. Hence, they could only return to discuss this matter.
