"While the Ye family was at fault initially, a simple apology from an individual would suffice. It's indeed unrealistic for the family head to personally apologize!" said a refined-looking middle-aged man, who was the Azure Dragon Hall Master, one of the four Hall Masters of the Dragon Court.
"Indeed, with the Ye family's strength, even if we didn't intervene, they wouldn't have their family head personally apologize. Thus, the Qin family has gone too far this time!!"
A middle-aged beauty in a red dress chimed in, she was the last Hall Master, the Vermilion Bird Hall Master!!
Hearing their words, the Black Tortoise Hall Master's expression turned somewhat grim. It wasn't that the other two Hall Masters were biased towards the Ye family.
Rather, with the recent spiritual energy resurgence and various hidden powers emerging, as members of the Dragon Court, they naturally wished for stability in the capital.
Furthermore, Ye Feng was an outsider, not a member of the Qin family. Therefore, they naturally hoped the Qin family would resolve the matter peacefully.
However, at this moment, the Black Tortoise Hall Master coldly stated, "Hmph, everyone, while what you say is true, have you perhaps overlooked something? The Qin family's Mountain and Sea Seal hasn't been lent to us yet!"
"Therefore, if this matter isn't resolved to the Qin family's satisfaction, let alone the Mountain and Sea Seal, it would be good if the Qin family doesn't withdraw from the Huaxia Alliance!!"
Upon hearing this, the faces of the Hall Masters changed. Yes, they seemed to have overlooked this crucial issue, which was the Qin family's Mountain and Sea Seal. This was of utmost importance to the Dragon Court at present.
Thus, in an instant, the Azure Dragon Hall Master and the Vermilion Bird Hall Master fell silent. The Mountain and Sea Seal was indeed very important to the Dragon Court!
"You!!"
Seeing this, the White Tiger Hall Master's expression also turned unpleasant. However, he forced himself to say, "While that may be the case, when has our Dragon Court ever been coerced? If others cannot, then the Qin family cannot either!"
"At worst, I will find a way to deal with the suppression of the evil cultivators. I refuse to believe that without the Mountain and Sea Seal, my grand Dragon Court cannot suppress a few mere evil cultivators!!"
The White Tiger Hall Master said coldly. After all, the Ye family was considered part of his faction, so he naturally could not stand idly by.
Moreover, having learned of Ye Feng's identity, he was even less willing to let the Qin family act this way!!
Hearing this, the Black Tortoise Hall Master knew that the White Tiger Hall Master was determined to protect the Ye family. He immediately said coldly, "Heh, well said, 'you will find a way.' In that case, I shall wait and see, White Tiger. I hope you don't regret it then!!"
With the Qin family's strength, he wasn't worried. Even if the White Tiger wanted to step forward, it wouldn't matter. He was happy to see the fellow make a fool of himself.
After all, Lu Minghua had been so disrespectful to him earlier; it was impossible not to feel displeased!
Seeing this, the White Tiger Hall Master naturally understood his intentions and immediately said coldly, "Regret is unlikely. It's a good opportunity to witness the Qin family's strength!!"
Soon, the White Tiger Hall Master's words reached the Ye family. Upon hearing that the Dragon Court was willing to intervene, the entire Ye family was filled with joy.
"Haha, that's great! With the Dragon Court's intervention, even the Qin family can't do anything to us. Now we can finally relax!"
"Yes, although the Qin family is strong, the Dragon Court is an official organization. I don't believe the Qin family would dare to go all out!"
"That's right, to go all out for a mere outsider, I doubt the Qin family would dare..."
The members of the Ye family breathed a sigh of relief. However, was the reality truly like this?
At this moment, in the Qin family's main hall, hearing that the Ye family not only made no move but had also gained the backing of the Dragon Court, Patriarch Qin and the others were all furious.
"Good, good, Ye family, is it? Do you really think that with the Dragon Court's backing, my Qin family wouldn't dare to make a move against you?" Patriarch Qin said coldly.
If Ye Feng were just an ordinary person, it would be one thing. But Ye Feng was his biological grandson. What if the Dragon Court issued a decree? The Qin family had never feared anyone!
Besides, he hadn't even settled the score with the Dragon Court yet, and they dared to step forward? Did they really think his great Qin family was fake?
"Pass down my order, immediately have all companies under the family's banner block the Ye family's businesses. All companies cooperating with my Qin family must not cooperate with Ye family companies, otherwise, their cooperation with the Qin family will be automatically canceled!!"
"Furthermore, release some of the issues concerning the Ye family that we hold, and report them directly to the relevant departments. I want to see how the Dragon Court will protect the Ye family!!"
As Patriarch Qin's imposing voice echoed, orders were issued one after another. In an instant, the entire Huaxia business world began to stir.
In just a few hours, the Ye family had witnessed the terrifying power of the Qin family. Medicine, real estate, internet, finance – the Qin family had a presence in almost every industry.
These industries were not only spread across Huaxia but also had intricate connections abroad, forming a vast network that tightly ensnared the Ye family.
This was not the end. Many companies, upon hearing that it was the Qin family's order, immediately severed ties with the Ye family without waiting for the Qin family to make a move.
Instantly, the entire Ye family became a public enemy in the Huaxia business world, with everyone avoiding them.
However, this was just the beginning. In addition to cooperation issues, the Ye family's companies in various regions began to be reported, with issues like tax evasion and safety hazards being exposed.
In an instant, companies under the Ye family were either investigated or sealed. In less than a day, they began to fall into paralysis.
Initially, many Ye family members thought of resisting, but as soon as they made a move, they were suppressed by the Qin family's absolute strength, unable to make even a ripple.
Such terrifying speed and power completely shocked the major forces in Huaxia. Even the high-ranking officials of the Dragon Court were stunned.
They had initially thought the Qin family was merely a super power, but they never expected them to be so deeply hidden.
In just one day, they had paralyzed all of the Ye family's industries. This strength could directly shake the entire Huaxia business world.
However, even so, they could not find any opportunity to refute, because all the issues exposed by the Qin family were based on solid evidence!!
It was precisely because of this that they were surprised, as it meant that the Qin family possessed even more terrifying evidence!!
Thinking of this, the White Tiger Hall Master's expression instantly turned grim.
He had initially thought the Qin family would at most make a small fuss, but he never expected them to truly act, and with such intensity. This was an attempt to destroy the Ye family!!
It wasn't just the Ye family; the entire Huaxia business world was shaken, with stock markets plummeting, even hitting the lower limit!
At the same time, in the Ye family, news that made the Ye family members' hearts stop continued to pour in. With each piece of news, their faces turned paler.
"Reporting to the Family Head, five of our listed companies in East China were found to have evaded taxes and have now been sealed!!"
"Furthermore, several high-level executives within three listed companies in Central China have been reported for corruption, bribery, and abuse of power, and have now been summoned!"
"In addition, various companies in other regions have also encountered numerous issues, such as internal corruption, backroom deals, and forced demolition leading to death..."
