"Uncle-grandfather is dead! The Yun family has lost a Grandmaster. How can the Yun family not seek revenge for this hatred!" Yun Bei said coldly.
The Yun family members were disheartened. The battle today made them realize that there were always greater masters beyond their own.
Before, they had always believed that the Yun family of Jiangdong was renowned throughout the nation, having produced two Grandmasters. Now, with one Grandmaster dead under suspicious circumstances, the blow was indeed significant.
"Hmph, if the Yun family relies on you, how can it not decline!" Yun Yiyi looked at Yun Bei, "You are truly a disgrace!"
Yun Bei's expression changed, but he dared not speak further. His submissive behavior today had indeed brought shame to the Yun family.
The other members of the Yun family also looked on with helplessness. If things turned out this way, returning to Jiangdong would surely bring them ridicule.
The battle by the lakeside in Jiangnan would soon spread. With the death of a Yun family Grandmaster, many martial artists in Jiangdong would undoubtedly learn of it.
Thinking of this, they were filled with dejection. The once arrogant Yun family was now in such a sorry state.
However, before they had taken a few steps, several figures appeared, blocking their path simultaneously.
"Patriarch Zhao?"
Yun Yiyi looked at the people before her, her expression fluctuating slightly.
"Are you Yun family planning to leave just like that?" Patriarch Zhao said coldly, "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"That's right!" Patriarch Wang said coldly, "If it weren't for the Yun family, why would we be in such a miserable state!"
"What happened today has indeed dragged our two great families into trouble!" Yun Yiyi said with guilt, "However, my second uncle also died in battle. Do the two patriarchs intend to make things difficult for us?"
"To help the Yun family, we dignified Grandmasters had to kneel and pay obeisance!" Patriarch Zhao sneered, "Where is our dignity? The Yun family must take responsibility for this matter!"
"That's not how you should put it!" Yun Bei said coldly, "The reason you came here was probably to enhance your family's reputation. Now that you've lost, you're coming to trouble us. Isn't that inappropriate!"
"What do you think you are?" Patriarch Wang said with displeasure, "As the young master of the Yun family, you've lost all face and still dare to be presumptuous before us!"
Yun Bei's expression changed, and just as he was about to say something, Yun Yiyi stepped in front of him, "You are all seniors. Things turned out this way before any arrangements were made; it was never the Yun family's wish!"
"No need for further nonsense!" Patriarch Zhao said coldly, "Because of the Yun family's affairs, our two great families were also implicated. Today, you Yun family will not leave easily!"
Several elders of the Yun family frowned and simultaneously adopted defensive postures. They knew very well that in the martial world, actions were decisive, especially when facing two Grandmasters.
Yun Yiyi frowned, unsure of what to do. This was not Jiangdong. If the two great families decided to act, the Yun family members would be no match for them.
"This matter has some connection with the Yun family, but it has already happened. Why must the two patriarchs be like this!"
A voice sounded, and Qian Qiu Zi stepped forward, "I hope you two can give me some face and let them leave!"
"Elder Qian, it's not that we don't give you face, but my Zhao family has lost all dignity, and it's all because of the Yun family!" Patriarch Zhao said directly.
"That's right, the Yun family must give an explanation!" Patriarch Wang nodded, "Otherwise, you will not leave today!"
"Don't you two patriarchs forget, the Yun family still has a Grandmaster!" Qian Qiu Zi said with a smile, "If you push too hard, the head of the Yun family might not stand idly by!"
The two patriarchs trembled, and their expressions showed even more apprehension.
Patriarch Yun Yi, the head of the Yun family, had become a Grandmaster thirty years ago. He was extremely mysterious in the martial world, and it was even rumored that he had already reached a high level of power, far surpassing ordinary Grandmasters.
Thinking of this, the two patriarchs' attitudes softened, "Since Elder Qian himself pleads, our two great families will not make things difficult. But from now on, do not involve us in the Yun family's affairs!"
"You two patriarchs can rest assured, it will never happen like this!"
Yun Yiyi nodded repeatedly, not daring to disobey in the slightest.
After the members of the two families left, Qian Qiu Zi sighed, "Return to Jiangdong as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, Master, for saving us!"
Yun Yiyi kowtowed thankfully, her resolve firm. If the Yun family hadn't had another Grandmaster, the Yun family members would likely have perished here today.
He was all too aware of this. He understood the affairs of the martial world very well.
"When Grandpa comes out of seclusion, he will definitely make them pay!" Yun Bei said coldly, filled with endless humiliation. When had the dignified Yun family ever been threatened like this?
"Hasn't things reached this point already?" Yun Yiyi said coldly, "If you hadn't been so overbearing, how could this have happened?"
Yun Bei immediately shut his mouth. Although his expression was unpleasant, he did not dare to say more. What happened today was indeed caused by them.
"Young Lady, we should return quickly!" an elder said, "After all, returning to the Yun family is the safest!"
Yun Yiyi nodded and left with the Yun family members, feeling a sense of powerlessness within her heart.
He didn't like fighting and killing. Now that things had turned out this way, he felt helpless.
After this incident, Lord Lu not only gained immense fame in Jiangnan but also garnered considerable renown throughout the nation.
Lu Fan, however, paid no mind to all this.
Inside the Heavenly Mansion Villa, Lin Ke changed out of her wedding attire and approached Lu Fan, "Lu Fan Ge, it was so dangerous today, I thought I would never see you again!"
"I am Lord Lu of Jiangnan!" Lu Fan gently touched Lin Ke's forehead, "No matter who it is, they won't be able to harm me!"
"But what if?" Lin Ke said tenderly, "I don't want Lu Fan Ge to take any risks!"
"Don't worry, I'll be careful in the future!" Lu Fan chuckled, "But it wasn't me who wanted to cause trouble today; they came looking for me!"
"I naturally know that!" Lin Ke nodded, wanting to say something, but ultimately stopped herself.
"You are getting married today. Why are you still in the living room so late?"
Granny Gui Hua walked over, "It's getting late now!"
As she spoke, Granny Gui Hua's gaze was meaningful.
Lu Fan glanced at Lin Ke, a faint blush appearing on his face. Although he could intercept Grandmasters and possessed unmatched bravery, he felt helpless when facing Lin Ke.
"Lu Fan Ge, let's go rest!"
Lin Ke said softly, her face also blushing. Granny Gui Hua had taught her some things a few days ago, and he understood her intentions.
"Ahem, okay!"
Lu Fan nodded and stepped towards the room, with Lin Ke following close behind.
Tonight was, after all, an extraordinary night.
At the Twin Towers Hotel, Patriarch Han and Han Qiushui sat together, along with other individuals.
Tonight was Lu Fan's wedding night. They had wanted to join in the festivities but were stopped by Lu Fan, leaving them somewhat helpless.
"Everyone, you are all friends of Lord Lu. If there is any inadequate hospitality tonight, please forgive us!"
Han Yunhai cupped his fists, "I hope everyone can enjoy themselves!"
Everyone nodded, giving Han Yunhai a slight bow. He was one of Lu Fan's closest associates, and they naturally dared not slight him easily.
"Patriarch Han, allow me to toast you!" Fatty Chen raised his wine glass, "Your actions today, Patriarch Han, truly moved me!"
