Others' words may fall on deaf ears to Ye Cheng, but he cannot afford to ignore the opinion of the Holy Daughter.

After a moment of contemplation,

He had an idea.

This matter needed to be considered carefully. Forcing the issue could have the opposite effect. It was clear that the Holy Daughter had devoted herself to this despicable man. The True Phoenix Clan had only recently returned and needed time to recover their strength. Modern civilization was developing quickly, and it was a good time to learn more... Today was different from the past; now was when the True Phoenix Clan was at its weakest. After suffering so much in the Secret Realm for many years, why rush things?

A gentleman's revenge could wait ten years.

With this thought,

Ye Cheng hurriedly said, "Holy Daughter, please calm your anger! We acted in haste, and I hope you do not take offense... My True Phoenix Clan is open-minded and inclusive. We fully respect your views and would not dare to rebel against them. We will return and accept our punishment! Today's incident was purely a misunderstanding."

"Missunderstanding?" Ye Wenjun found it amusing.

"Yes, a misunderstanding... Eight thousand years ago, the True Phoenix Clan and the True Dragon Clan stood high above this Continent, highly esteemed. Over time, it was inevitable that others would treat the True Phoenix Clan with absolute respect and reverence. But times have changed... I heard from someone of the Kunlun Sect the other day that modern civilization advocates for equality among all people. It seemed funny at first, but now I think about it, it is indeed so. This difference in beliefs has led to our misunderstanding!" Ye Cheng earnestly said.

Fang Yu was taken aback.

He didn't expect Ye Cheng to be so eloquent.

Even after insulting the Fang Family like this, to simply brush it all off as a misunderstanding.

Looking at it now, this person really had no shame.

But...

Fang Yu had no intention of continuing this entanglement.

Everything in moderation.

Continuing this would not benefit the Fang Family either.

"Fine! Since it is just a misunderstanding, we can discuss this matter... The Fang Family has other matters to attend to today, so please feel free to leave. After all, you are neither members of the Fang Family nor honored guests; staying here too long wouldn't be right, don't you think?"

Upon hearing this,

Although Ye Cheng was angry inside, he could do nothing, especially when Ye Wenjun's expression was as cold as ice. He could only bow and say, "Very well... Today my True Phoenix Clan was presumptuous. Another day, I will prepare a generous gift to apologize. Please accept these gifts for now, Holy Daughter."

"I will not accept the items; you can take them all back," Ye Wenjun coldly said.

"Holy Daughter... this was ordered by the True Lord himself, to be personally delivered to you. Please don't make this difficult for your subordinates!" Ye Cheng bowed deeply.

"Again? Are you deciding even such trivial matters for me?! Is the Holy Daughter of the True Phoenix Clan supposed to be the most lowly person among your clan? A first-rate bloodline? Ridiculous!"

Ye Cheng was startled, breaking into a cold sweat, and said, "No, no, no... My subordinates will take everything back right away!"

He waved his hand.

Just then,

Fang Yu said, "Since it's already here, leave it... It's not easy carrying it all back to Kunlun Mountain."

Ye Wenjun was startled.

By all logic, after being publicly humiliated by these people and still receiving their rich gifts, any normal person would refuse to accept them. Wouldn't accepting them be like slapping themselves?

But Fang Yu actually asked to keep them?

However, Ye Wenjun said softly, "Since you like it, then keep it!"

Ye Cheng was shocked inside.

He didn't expect the Holy Daughter to listen so much to Fang Yu's words.

Not one of the four protectors of the True Phoenix Clan held a more distinguished status than Fang Yu, yet their words carried no weight.

Ye Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded slightly, and said, "We take our leave!"

With a grand wave of his hand,

The people of the True Phoenix Clan left the Fang Family.

"Farewell without further ado!"

These people had no sooner left the Fang Family.

Fang Ju immediately came out in a huff and exclaimed, "Fang Yu... Why did you let them go! Look at those people, their arrogance is through the roof!"

Fang Yu sighed and said:

"Master, do you think I wanted to let them go? They have four warriors at the Heavenly Mechanism Level. If it were a one-on-one fight, naturally I wouldn't fear them, but there were six of them. The other two are also experts at the True Realm. Even if I could handle it by giving my all, what about you all? Such a wide-ranging battle would be devastating, and would certainly harm the Fang Family's people!"

Upon hearing this.

Fang Ju nodded his head.

"Ah, luckily, you were clever, using modern weapons to frighten them off. But what about the future? I'm afraid they will come back to make trouble!"

Fang Yu said:

"Let's wait and see... We need to ascertain the true strength of the True Phoenix Clan. It's not good to be directly hostile with them."

At this moment.

Xu Sisi stepped forward, analyzing calmly:

"Mr. Fang used modern weapons to hold them off... But once they truly understand the modern civilization, they will definitely return with greater force."

"Yes, Miss Sisi is right... Though modern weapons are formidable capable of destroying planets... once they truly understand, they will know those are heavy weapons, not something everyone can carry with them," Fang Yu said.

"What should we do now?" Ye Wenjun asked.

Fang Yu smiled:

"Their target is you... As long as you stand with us, they won't easily strike. For now... we just need to hurry and increase our strength. Nowadays, with numerous Secret Realms, a resurgence of Spiritual Energy, even the humans in modern cities are undergoing mutations and evolving. Even the overall strength of our brothers on the Dark Web is increasing. Seeing Heavenly Rank in the Five Great Divine Palaces is no longer shocking... Divine Statue baptism seems easier too... These are all good signs."

"Mmm..." Everyone nodded.

Seeing everyone's worried expressions.

Fang Yu smiled, "Don't be so stressed... we can't afford to boost others' morale at our own expense! Concerning this, I've already thought of a strategy!"

"What strategy!" Master Fang Ju asked anxiously.

"Slow Turning Secret Realm." Fang Yu only said these four words.

Slow Turning Secret Realm?

Everyone fell into deep thought.

...

Meanwhile.

Ye Cheng and the others who had just left Fang Family, were trembling with rage.

If not for their noble lineage keeping them composed, they were almost ready to kill on the streets!

"Absolutely outrageous!"

"Too despicable!"

"This Fang Family's Fang Yu dares to insult the Holy Daughter, to insult the protector of the True Phoenix Clan!"

Ye Cheng repeatedly cursed in anger.

Beside him, Ye Renyu clasped his hands and said, "Protector... this brat is truly clueless, I noticed his Cultivation seemed to have broken through... and who knows what kind of Love Potion he's fed to the Holy Daughter. This person is so despicable. How about I secretly make a move, and get rid of him—"

He made a throat-slitting gesture.

Ye Cheng stated with his hands behind his back, "Leave this matter to you... But before that, we need to clarify his real strength; I always felt that he's not simple. Also, the weapons he displayed. We must figure these out!"

"Protector, you worry too much, I am confident in defeating him!" Ye Renyu replied with a sneer.

"That's good! Remember... it has to be done neatly, and make sure the Holy Daughter doesn't find out!"

"Yes!"
