    Dongfang Zhu and the two elders returned to the Dongfang n’s estate in a hurry after they left the restaurant. As soon as they arrived in the Dongfang n’s estate, they sought an audience with the n Leader of Dongfang n immediately. The n Leader was Dongfang Qian, Dongfang Zhu’s father!


    “Father!” Dongfang Zhu eximed. His face was filled with rage.


    “The Qiu n and Qiu Mu Qing have crossed the line!”


    “What happened?” Dongfang Qian asked with a frown when he saw how agitated his son was. His son hade to him half an hour ago and requested for him to send two elders at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage out with him. He was surprised to see Dongfang Zhu and the two elders returning so soon. Moreover, they seemed extremely upset.


    “Father! Initially, I nned to teach the man who humiliated me with the help of the two elders. However, that man had already left the restaurant with Qiu Mu Qing when I arrived,” Dongfang Zhu said with a dark expression, “Qiu Mu Qing was seen holding the man’s hand when they left the restaurant. Moreover, we found out she has brought that man back to the Qiu n’s estate and even allowed him to stay in her private residence!”


    Dongfang Zhu’s eyes were bloodshot as he continued to say, “From what I know, she has never allowed anyone to stay in her private residence before this. That man is the first guest in her private residence!”


    Based on Dongfang Zhu’s words, it could be seen that he knew her quite well. He was furious because he had long regarded Qiu Mu Qing as his woman. However, she had taken the initiative to hold another man’s hand and even brought him back to her private residence in the Qiu n’s estate. He felt as though he was going to lose his mind the more he thought about it.


    “What?!” Dongfang Qian’s expression darkened immediately when he heard Dongfang Zhu’s words. A hint of killing intent could be seen in his eyes. “How dare Qiu Mu Qing act so brazenly!”


    “n Leader!” One of the elders who was sent out to help Dongfang Zhu said, “Qiu Mu Qing and the Qiu n have crossed a line. Everyone in rity City knows that Qiu Mu Qing is your future daughter-inw... Her actions today have humiliated our n!”


    “I agree, n Leader,” the other elder from Dongfang n said furiously. “If we don’t deal with this matter properly, I’m afraid we won’t be able to lift our heads in rity City! At that time, people would lose respect for the Dongfang n.”


    “We’ll definitely deal with this matter ordingly!” Dongfang Qian said as he looked at the two elders coldly, “Do you have any suggestions on how to deal with this matter?”


    “n Leader, I suggest that you personally lead a team to the Qiu n to condemn Qiu Mu Qing’s actions... We should demand for an exnation from her and the Qiu n!” One of the elders from Dongfang n said, “Moreover, we should ask the Qiu n to hand Qiu Mu Qing and the purple-d young man over to us so we can punish them ordingly. We should also break off the engagement between Qiu Mu Qing and Second Young Master!”


    “I agree!” The other elder from the Dongfang n nodded. “The news of Qiu Mu Qing’s actions is spreading like wildfire in rity City. If we don’t break the engagement, we’ll be aughing stock in rity City! We need to be the one who breaks the engagement so everyone knows that it’s the Dongfang n that rejected her, not the other way around!”


    “I’ll lead a team to the Qiu n’s estate and demand for an exnation. Otherwise, people are going to think the Dongfang n is a pushover!” Dongfang Qian said coldly, “It’s necessary for us to break off the engagement with such a woman! The Dongfang n can’t ept a woman like that!”


    “It shouldn’t be difficult to force the Qiu n to hand the purple-d young man over, but they won’t easily hand over Qiu Mu Qing to us. That shameless woman is the apple of n Leader Qiu An Ping’s eyes!” Dongfang Qian said with a frown.


    “Father! You must demand the Qiu n to hand Qiu Mu Qing over to us!” Dongfang Zhu quickly said, his eyes gleaming sinisterly. Dongfang Zhu wanted to capture Qiu Mu Qing and ravage her. He wanted her even if he could not marry her!


    “My son, I understand how you feel, but it’s not practical to demand the Qiu n to hand Qiu Mu Qing over to us for the time being,” Dongfang Qian said to Dongfang Zhu.


    “Second Young Master, n Leader is right!” One of the elders standing next to Dongfang Zhu said, “Qiu Mu Qing is Qiu An Ping’s only daughter. There’s no doubt that he would sacrifice his life for her. There’s no way he would hand Qiu Mu Qing over to us.”


    “Second Young Master, we understand that you hate Qiu Mu Qing... However, it’s impossible the Qiu n would hand her over to us!” The other elder said.


    Dongfang Zhu fell silent when he heard their words. It was not that he could not understand their thoughts, but he found it difficult to ept. He knew there was nothing he could do even if he could not ept it.


    “My son, I promise you I’ll capture Qiu Mu Qing for you after this matter has been dealt with! For the time being, we’ll just capture the purple-d young man for you to vent your anger.” Dongfang Qian consoled his son.


    Dongfang Zhu’s eyes brightened when he heard his father’s promise. He quickly thanked his father. “Thank you, father!”


    “Go to the front yard and wait for me there. I’ll discuss this matter with Grand Elder and Second Elder first,” Dongfang Qian said, “I believe the elders will be furious as well when they learn about Qiu Mu Qing’s actions today and how the Qiu n seems to be turning a blind eye to it! I will look for you once I’m done discussing this with Grand Elder and Second Elder.” He left in just a blink of an eye after he finished speaking. As a powerhouse at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, his speed was naturally faster than Dongfang Zhu and the two elders.


    Dongfang Zhu and the two elders went to the front yard to wait for Dongfang Qian after he left.


    Just as Dongfang Qian had said, the Grand Elder and Second Elder were furious when they learned about what Qiu Mu Qing had done. In their opinion, she had crossed the line.


    After that, Dongfang Qian, the n Leader of Dongfang n, led the Grand Elder and Second Elder to the front yard to look for Dongfang Zhu and the two elders before they left the Dongfang n’s estate.


    When the people from Dongfang n flew to the Qiu n’s estate, they attracted many people’s attention.


    “Isn’t that Dongfang Qian, the n Leader of Dongfang n?” A passerby asked when he saw the people from Dongfang n flying in the sky.


    “The Grand Elder, Second Elder, and the Second Young Master are with him as well. It seems like they’re heading to the Qiu n’s estate to demand an exnation regarding Qiu Mu Qing’s actions!”


    News of Qiu Mu Qing’s actions had spread in rity City. Naturally, people came to this conclusion when they saw people from the Dongfang n making their way to the Qiu n’s estate.


    “The Young Miss from Qiu n is very bold to protect the man who humiliated the Second Young Master of Dongfang n. I can’t believe she even brought him back to the Qiu n’s estate to stay in her private residence. It seems like they’re not just acquaintances!”


    “Qiu Mu Qing’s actions are akin pping the Dongfang n’s face. It’s only natural that n Leader Dongfang Qian is going to the Qiu n’s estate!”


    “It seems like things are going to change in rity City... The Qiu n and the Dongfang n will probably no longer be allies. The Feng n is definitely going to seize this opportunity to further expand their power. Things are looking good for the Feng n!”


    “That girl destroyed two ns in a day. Her beauty is the root of this trouble!”


    “I have a feeling the man Qiu Mu Qing brought back will die or suffer!”


    Many people began to discuss among themselves when they saw the people from the Dongfang n making their way to the Qiu n’s estate.


    Most people seemed to think Qiu Mu Qing was the source of the trouble and misfortune only awaited the purple-d young man whom she had brought back to the Qiu n’s estate.


    ...


    Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of all themotion outside.


    He was currently sitting with Qiu Mu Qing at a stone table in the front yard of her private residence. She had just returned from n Leader Qiu An Ping’s residence.


    “Miss Qiu, did you tell your father my name?” Duan Ling Tian asked suddenly as though he just recalled something. He knew his name would bring trouble to the people associated with him. After all, he had offended many people. Moreover, those people were not ordinary people. They were high-ranking officials in one of the great sects in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, the Fire Worship Sect.
