After comforting Giovanna for a while, Lu Yu carried Giovanna back to the bedroom. After washing up, he gradually fell asleep.

During the time when Lu Yu was with his family, Ying Chao, the Patriarch of the Ying family, received the envoys from the Wang and the Mu families.

Ying Chao gazed upon Ying Mei’er and spoke in a solemn manner to her, “Mei’er, this time, the credit for the matter regarding the Wang and the Mu families is all yours.”

“If we can get enough benefits from the Wang and the Mu families this time, I grant you permission to pick a weapon from our family’s weapon vault.”

Hearing Ying Chao’s words, Ying Mei’er gave a scornful laugh in her heart, but outwardly, she pretended to be overwhelmed by the favor and honor bestowed upon her and she bowed respectfully to Ying Chao.

“Mei’er thanks the Patriarch. Mei’er will definitely do her best and strive to make another amazing contribution for the family!”

Looking at Ying Mei’er’s humble attitude, Ying Chao nodded with satisfaction.

“Alright. You can go and get ready. The Wang and Mu families will be here in a moment.”

“Yes, Patriarch.”

Ying Mei’er excused herself in accordance with Ying Chao’s instructions.

After Ying Mei’er left the study, Ying Chao then turned his gaze to a middle-aged man on the side and said to him, “Jiye, I’ll leave it to you to meet with the Wang and Mu families.”

As soon as Ying Chao said these words, the middle-aged man named Ying Jiye bowed and answered unhurriedly, “Please rest assured, Patriarch. I know what to do.”

Soon, the representatives the Wang and Mu families sent out arrived at the estate of the Ying family.

The leader was the second elder of the Wang family, Wang Anyi. The Mu family did not dare to be negligent in the slightest bit when they had to face the Ying family, one of the four great families. They sent their family’s third elder.

The two old men, representing their respective families, slowly followed the caretaker of the Ying family all the way into an area just outside the study

room.

“Elder Wang, Elder Mu, our Third Master is awaiting the arrival of you two gentlemen inside. ”

“This way, please.”

The caretaker cupped his hands respectfully to Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle, and then made a gesture of invitation.

When Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle heard the caretaker, they pushed open the door and walked into the study in big strides without any trace of hesitation.

As soon as they entered the study, they saw Ying Jiye sitting at the desk and Ying Mei’er standing by his side.

When they saw Ying Mei’er, the culprit who had landed their two families in this humiliating situation, a sense of anger welled up in the hearts of Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle instantly.

Mu Kangle, on the other hand, directly circulated the strength in his body and rushed straight towards Ying Mei’er.

“You witch! It’s all because of you…’

However, before Mu Kangle could reach Ying Mei’er, Ying Jiye, who was sitting in front of the desk at the side, gave a scornful snort and chided him, “How impudent, Mu Kangle! Have you forgotten what your Mu family is here for?”

After being reprimanded by Ying Jiye, Mu Kangle could only stop in his tracks. He glared at Ying Mei’er viciously with resentment and then lowered his head with great reluctance.

In contrast, Wang Anyi was much calmer, but the fury in his heart was no less vehement than Mu Kangle’s.

As he watched Mu Kangle bow his head in humiliation, Wang Anyi secretly cursed, “Stupid!”

Their two families were already at the mercy of the Ying family, who held some info against them as leverage. They were the weaker party in this negotiation.

However, now that Mu Kangle had stirred up this trouble, the predicament of their Wang and Mu families had become even more precarious.

When he thought of this, Wang Anyi took a big step forward and cupped his hands respectfully at Ying Jiye, saying, “Third Master Ying, at the end of the day, this matter happened because of the lax discipline of our Wang and Mu families. Our two families are willing to offer 5 tons of spiritual energy ore and 5 A-class weapons as compensation!”

“We hereby ask the Ying family to have mercy and spare our Wang and Mu families this time.”

When Wang Anyi finished speaking, he lowered his head and waited quietly for Ying Jiye’s response.

Hearing the compensation offered by the Wang and Mu families, Ying Jiye’s brows invariably knitted tightly and he said in an icy voice, “Wang Anyi, those two brats from your Wang and Mu families were so close to defiling our Ying family’s beloved beautiful and talented daughter!”

“Now you’re simply tossing out such miserable things to get our Ying family off your tail?”

“Do the Wang and Mu families think that you can bully the Ying family?” Ying Jiye said while looking angrily at both Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle.

As Ying Jiye’s words rang out, Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle both felt a powerful pressure slowly enveloping them both immediately.

Feeling this pressure, Wang Anyi’s forehead instantly broke out in cold sweat.

Wang Anyi stared fixedly in disbelief at Ying Jiye sitting in front of him. There was only one reason as he could clearly feel it.

The aura emitted by the Third Master of the Ying family had already reached the level of a War General!

Compared to his own family’s Patriarch, the other party’s aura was several times more forceful.

The Ying family certainly lived up to its reputation as one of the four great families…

“Third Master Ying, we wouldn’t dare. This is genuinelv the comDensation that

our Wang and Mu families can afford to offer right now.”

Wang Anyi was afraid that Ying Jiye would be angry, so he hastily bowed and elaborated.

For the Wang and Mu families, being able to come up with 5 tons of spiritual energy ore and 5 A-class weapons at this point was already a back-breaking endeavor for them.

However, Ying Jiye was not satisfied with these things that the two families brought out. In fact, one could even say that he scoffed at their offer.

“Ying Mei’er, as a victim of this matter, what do you think?”

Ying Jiye didn’t pay attention to Wang Anyi, but asked to Ying Mei’er standing by his side.

Upon hearing Ying Jiye’s inquiry, Ying Mei’er scanned the faces of Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle unhurriedly.

“Third Uncle, Mei’er will support all decisions taken by the family.”

As soon as Ying Mei’er said this, Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle’s gazes immediately focused on Ying Jiye again.

Under the fixed gazes of the two, Ying Jiye smiled faintly and slowly stated the conditions that Ying Chao had set long ago.

“How about this? Our Ying family won’t bully both your families. You only need to hand over a quarter of your family’s assets!”

Upon hearing this, Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle instantly froze on the same spot in a state of shock.

Damn this Ying family. What a big appetite they had. They actually wanted a quarter of their family’s assets!

“Third Master Ying, do you think you can reduce this requirement a little? After all, we are just small families…”

“Small families? So small families can defile our Ying family’s beloved beautiful and talented daughter?”

“I have laid down the conditions for you. Whether you accept them or not is up to both of your families. If you want our Ying family to stop pursuing the matter, then hand the assets over obediently!”

Ying Jiye no longer wanted to waste time talking to these two people, so he stated his ultimatum loudly and directly.

Seeing that things had progressed to this point, Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle looked at each other helplessly and said to Ying Jiye, “In that case, Third Master Ying, the two of us can’t make the decision on this matter. We have to go back and discuss it with our Patriarchs.”

“Well, then. I won’t delay you two. Men, send the guests off!”

As soon as Ying Jiye’s words rang out, the caretaker standing guard outside the door walked in and gestured to Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle with his hand extended invitingly to the door.

Thus, Wang Anyi and Mu Kangle returned to their respective families without success, with a feeling of apprehension..
