76: To simply brush it aside?

Wenxuan Lingtai was held hostage on his own turf, so the Wenxuan Family naturally received the news immediately.

However, just as they were about to organize experts to go and rescue him, to kill that ignorant outsider, they received a stern warning from the Family Head!

Many people were confused and indignant.

They believed this greatly damaged the dignity of the Wenxuan Family and was a disgrace!

However, Li Wenxuan currently had no mind to care about the boiling emotions of the Wenxuan Family...

He asked anxiously, "Brother Liao! What should I do now?"

Liao Peng stared blankly at the clouds drifting past the porthole and said casually, "What do you mean, what should you do?"

"That Chu Yuan! Will he report this to the mainland..."

"Report what? Report that you married and had children on Mu Island?" Liao Peng countered, "The Zhenwu Bureau has no such regulations. How many children you can have is your own ability."

"Brother Liao! At a time like this, don't tease me!" Li Wenxuan said anxiously. "You understand what I mean..."

He lowered his voice, seemingly wary of those two words: "Great Families..."

Liao Peng asked curiously, "Since you know everything, how did you dare to let that damn Wenxuan Family develop into what it is today?"

"I have always paid little attention to Family affairs..."

Liao Peng was too lazy to listen to his excuses. "Don't worry too much; Chu Yuan might not understand the difference between a Family and a Great Family.

When you see him later, lower your attitude and offer more benefits as compensation... After all, it was your son who offended others first."

"Brother Liao, while that may be true... I'm still a bit worried! Is there really no other way..." Li Wenxuan's eyes flickered, implying something.

Upon hearing this, Liao Peng slapped him on the head and warned, "Chu Yuan is highly valued by those above and is under special care per instructions from the mainland.

Do not ruin everyone because of your stupidity!

Otherwise... if the Captain says he wants to purge the organization, I might not be unable to be ruthless!"

"...Yes!"

"Most people in Chi County, whether they are ordinary people or Martial Artists, cannot leave the Wenxuan Family from the moment they are born!" Inside the room, Wenxuan Lingtai looked proud, his chest slightly puffed out.

Chu Yuan asked curiously, "How so?"

"From the moment they are born, the diapers they use and the milk powder they drink come from the Wenxuan Family's factories; the schools they attend are also built by the Wenxuan Family!

From the principal to the teachers, everyone works for the Wenxuan Family! Even when they start working later, they go to the Wenxuan Family's companies and factories!

Even in death... they have to buy a cemetery plot from the Wenxuan Family!" Wenxuan Lingtai spoke eloquently, "The daily necessities of ordinary people, and the Cultivation resources and weapons of Martial Artists... are all controlled by the Wenxuan Family!"

Tian Tian whispered, "Doesn't that make you an emperor?"

"You could say that..." Wenxuan Lingtai nodded reservedly. "In Chi County, no one dares to touch anyone from our Wenxuan Family!"

But then he remembered that he was currently being held hostage... and his Aura suddenly dropped again.

Chu Yuan mocked, "No wonder you dare to be so arrogant."

"No, no, no. Actually, within the Family, I'm considered a good person..."

Before Wenxuan Lingtai could finish speaking, the door was pushed open; a scruffy-bearded middle-aged man walked in with another person, his gaze instantly locking onto Chu Yuan.

He smiled and said, "I am a member of the Mu Island Zhenwu Bureau, Liao Peng; are you Chu Yuan?"

Finally here...

Chu Yuan stood up. "I am Chu Yuan, and this is Tian Tian. We are both trial-takers from Secret Realm No. 7."

"Come with me. The Bureau has already arranged a fighter jet to escort you back to the mainland today!"

"Thank you, Senior."

"Father!" Wenxuan Lingtai suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted at the man behind Liao Peng.

Chu Yuan looked over curiously. This honest-looking, seemingly taciturn middle-aged man... was Li Wenxuan?

Appearances can indeed be deceiving...

Li Wenxuan met Chu Yuan's gaze and revealed a somewhat awkward smile; then he angrily rebuked Wenxuan Lingtai, "Unruly! What place do you have to speak here!?

Get back to the Family! Kneel before the ancestral hall and reflect!

You are not allowed to get up without my order!"

"Yes..." Wenxuan Lingtai, as if granted amnesty, ran out of the room in a flash.

Liao Peng's pupils constricted. This idiot Li Wenxuan... has he been on Mu Island too long, and has his brain degenerated too!?

He had already understood the cause of the matter on the way. What Wenxuan Lingtai did to Chu Yuan and the other... if not a mortal feud, it was close enough.

If it weren't for the fact that Chu Yuan and the other were strong, they might be dead by now!

In Liao Peng's opinion, it would be best if Li Wenxuan killed this worthless son in front of Chu Yuan to apologize! At the very least, he should have beaten him into serious injury! He didn't expect...

This fool Li Wenxuan actually dared to protect him in this way!? Did he think that this was already very sincere!?

"My Family discipline is lax, and I have caused you both trouble." Li Wenxuan smiled. He seemed not to notice anything and took two jade bottles from his bosom.

"Here are two bottles of Condensing Breath Pills for Inner Breath Realm Martial Artists, as an apology and compensation for you both... Please, you must accept them!"

"..." Liao Peng's eyes grew colder, but he said nothing and watched quietly.

Tian Tian was also a bit angry at this moment. Two bottles of common-grade Medicinal Pills, and he wanted to let the matter of Wenxuan Lingtai trying to kill them slide!?

Although the Condensing Breath Pills were for Inner Breath Realm Martial Artists and were considered quite valuable; as long as one could reach the Inner Breath Realm, one could always obtain them... Using such things as an apology?

She looked at Chu Yuan, only to see Chu Yuan accept them calmly and smile, "It was just a small misunderstanding to begin with... Then thank you, Senior."

Li Wenxuan breathed a sigh of relief. "You're welcome. It's good that the misunderstanding is resolved..."

Liao Peng interrupted, "The two of you, shall we set off?"

"Okay."

Chu Yuan's expression remained unchanged as he followed behind Liao Peng; the anger in Tian Tian's heart also disappeared.

She now had some understanding of Chu Yuan and naturally knew that it wouldn't be Chu Yuan who let this matter slide;

Otherwise, he should have raised an objection on the spot and demanded more benefits!

The reason he was so indifferent, besides being wary of being on someone else's territory... was likely because he had other means...

Lin Haifeng and Liao Peng watched quietly as the fighter jet took off and flew away; in less than an hour, Chu Yuan and the other would be able to return to Great Qin...

Although there were other trial-takers who needed to be searched for and transported, the one most concerned by those above had already been sent away, which could be considered a bit of merit.

Liao Peng suddenly spoke, "Captain, Li Wenxuan is likely finished."

"Hmm."

"Do you think if those above really investigate..."

"You and I are just collecting some Martial Dao resources, which is within the rules, and no one will be overly critical; as for the others... they should pray for their own good."

"After all, we have been together for so many years and have experienced battles and life and death together..."

"It is precisely because of this that I have tolerated them for a long time and warned them many times... but these bastards only promise nicely with their lips. Having enjoyed themselves for so many years... is it not enough?"
