15: Wang Xu took action

At the Ling Family Residence.

Inside the reception hall.

Ling Zifan watched the scene before him without a hint of anger, instead sitting alone to the side, leisurely sipping the tea in his hand.

He was completely at ease, as if the arrival of Feng Yuyan and the others had nothing to do with him.

However, on second thought, the spiritual tea picked from the Lianyun Mountains was truly excellent; not only was its taste pure, but after drinking it, he immediately felt a sense of comfort throughout his body.

It was indeed a spiritual tea worth a thousand gold, truly remarkable.

At the same time.

Seeing this, Ling Buyi said no more. He turned and walked straight to his seat, picked up the teacup beside him, and slowly began to savor it, completely devoid of his previous enthusiasm.

The two sides remained in a standoff.

They continued in this awkward atmosphere for quite some time.

Soon, seeing the situation, Feng Yuyan could no longer bear it and directly asked Ling Buyi.

"Uncle Ling, I have something I wish to discuss with you on this visit. I wonder if Uncle Ling could invite the Clan Chief Ling to come out and bear witness?"

Upon hearing Feng Yuyan's words, everyone couldn't help but think to themselves:

"As expected, it seems she couldn't wait any longer."

"She's getting straight to the point!"

"I wonder how the Grand Elder will respond."

Seeing this, Ling Buyi's face showed difficulty, and he stammered to Feng Yuyan.

"This..."

"Niece Feng, as soon as you arrived, I sent someone to inform the Clan Chief. As for why he hasn't arrived yet, I don't know."

"If you have anything to say, you can tell us beforehand; it's the same. We old fellows are still somewhat useful."

"Niece Feng, feel free to speak."

Seeing this, Feng Yuyan frowned slightly, clearly not entirely satisfied with Ling Buyi's answer.

She then continued to speak slowly.

"Although Uncle Ling can make the decision in this matter, without the Clan Chief Ling's witness, it might lack persuasiveness."

"I won't hide it from Uncle Ling any longer. I personally came to the Ling Family this time to break off the engagement between Ling Zifan and me."

"Break off the engagement with Zifan?"

"It seems the rumors flying around Qingyun Town recently are indeed true."

"The spread of this news must be largely thanks to your Family, Feng Yuyan."

Ling Buyi watched as Feng Yuyan directly stated her purpose. For a moment, his eyes fixed on Feng Yuyan, and he said coldly.

"Yes, Grand Elder."

Upon hearing Ling Buyi's cold words, Feng Yuyan's face remained utterly calm, without any anger, and she simply said to everyone.

However, what no one noticed at this moment was that the way the two addressed each other was constantly changing.

"Since that is the case, then please wait here for a while."

"Our Clan Chief will arrive."

Seeing this, Ling Buyi said coldly, then picked up a spiritual tea nearby and began to savor it, no longer paying attention to Feng Yuyan and the others.

At this moment, Wang Xu, who had been sitting to the side, already very displeased, became furious. He stood up and immediately picked up a teacup from the side, smashing it fiercely to the ground.

"A mere insignificant small Family from Qingyun Town dares to put on airs with me! This young master truly doesn't know who gave you the courage to disrespect me so greatly."

"You try to fob us off with a mere cup of inferior spiritual tea, and you make this young master wait here for so long. Even if your Clan Chief is far away, he should have crawled here by now."

"A small Family is just a small Family; they don't even understand the Way of hospitality."

In an instant, as Wang Xu's unbearable words fell, the hall immediately became filled with tension.

Just then, a Family Disciple's announcement suddenly came from outside the door.

"The Family Head has arrived!"

Seeing this, everyone immediately looked towards the entrance of the hall.

Ling Feng was seen walking directly towards the main seat in the hall, ignoring everyone. Ling Xuan followed closely by Ling Feng's side.

After Ling Feng took his seat, Ling Buyi and the others respectfully bowed to him.

"We pay our respects to the Family Head."

"Rise."

"Thank you, Family Head."

"I heard your incessant quarreling from afar outside the hall. Are all the people of the Mystic Limit Sect so ill-mannered?"

Ling Feng then turned to Wang Xu and said coldly.

"You are the Ling Family Head? The rumored useless son of Ling Wuji?"

"I didn't expect the Ling Family to actually agree to let you be the Family Head. What a bunch of fools."

"Presumptuous!"

Before Ling Feng could respond, Ling Buyi and the others all shouted and prepared to attack.

"Stop."

"Alas, seeking death on your own, it truly can't be stopped."

Ling Feng looked at the arrogant Wang Xu, then shook his head and sighed.

"Hahaha, I don't know who gave you such audacity. A useless Family Head leading a group of small Family members actually wants to kill me? I'm so scared, oh."

"This young master thinks it's you who are truly seeking death."

As Wang Xu's words fell, he instantly struck. A tremendously powerful Spiritual Qi instantly gathered on his fist. His Move flowed, and in an instant, a massive spiritual power fist directly slammed towards Ling Feng.

Wang Xu thought to himself, with his Yellow Martial Realm strength, killing a Body Tempering Realm second or third stage waste would be as easy as pie.

Ling Buyi had been secretly observing Feng Yuyan and the others. The moment Wang Xu attacked, he also flashed and appeared before Wang Xu's attack, easily neutralizing it.

Seeing this, Feng Yuyan couldn't help but exclaim,

"What? He's actually a Profound Martial Realm expert!"

Feng Yuyan was very clear about Ling Buyi's cultivation. Before, he was only at the Peak of the Yellow Martial Realm. With the strength of the Yellow Martial Realm Peak, it was absolutely impossible for him to neutralize Wang Xu's attack so easily.

"I didn't expect you to have actually Broken Through to become a Profound Martial Realm Martial Artist. However, today it ends here."

"Wang Gongfeng (Wang Family Attendant), kill him for me."

Seeing his attack neutralized by Ling Buyi, Wang Xu then loudly said to the old man behind him...
