Chapter 274: Backing Dongfang Mingzhu Up! (5)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“It seems that the Dongfang family is indeed powerful. They can survive for the time being even if something goes wrong, with the support of the Ji family, the Ning family, and the Zhao family…”

“I wonder who are the big shots from the three great clans?”

Many guests whispered and looked at the door.

At this moment, Dongfang Changming, Dongfang Changtian, and Dongfang Yulan looked at the three sloppy young men in front of them. Their faces almost stiffened.

None of them had expected that the Patriarchs of the three great clans would not come.

Furthermore, not only did the Patriarchs of the three great clans not come, even the important figures of the three great clans did not come.

They had sent three sloppy juniors in their stead.

This was simply a slap to the Dongfang family’s face.

“Ahem ahem…” Dongfang Changming suppressed the anger in his heart and squeezed out a smile. “Ji Chengyu, Ning Cheng, and Zhao Jinghui, right? Where’s your families’ Ancestors? Did they ask you to come first and be here later?”

Ji Chengyu, Ning Cheng, and Zhao Jinghui all looked mockingly at Dongfang Changming and the other two, angrily without daring to be really angry. A cynical expression appeared on their faces.

“Hahaha, Patriarch Dongfang, right? To tell you the truth, our Patriarch is not free now and can’t be bothered to attend the Dongfang Ancestor’s 300th birthday banquet…”

“However, our families have been on good terms for many years. I, Ji Chengyu, am not an impolite person. This golden bell is a gift I’ve carefully chosen for your Dongfang family’s Ancestor.”

Ji Chengyu said without restraint. He placed a golden bell that was half the height of a person in front of Dongfang Changming and the other two.

“Ahem, it is the same for our Ancestor. He had something to do, so he asked me to come. This is my gift.”

Ning Cheng smiled mockingly and placed a gift on the table. It was a glass water tank filled with blue liquid. There was a shipwreck in the water tank.

“Our Ancestor… Well, he’s out on a long trip and can’t come personally. I’m not good at choosing gifts, so I only found a bouquet of chrysanthemums. Please don’t mind.”

Zhao Jinghui smiled and placed a bouquet of chrysanthemums in front of Dongfang Changming and the other two.

Listening to the insincere words of Ji Chengyu and the other two, and looking at the three inauspicious gifts in front of them—the golden bell, the shipwreck, and the chrysanthemum—Dongfang Changming and the other two were so angry that their faces were ashen and their bodies were trembling.

The bell was a homonym for the end. Giving someone a bell was equivalent to hoping for someone to die.

A shipwreck, giving someone a shipwreck at a birthday banquet. There was nothing more inauspicious than this.

Chrysanthemums were mostly given to dead people.

Ji Chengyu, Ning Cheng, and Zhao Jinghui actually gave three such “auspicious” gifts at the 300th birthday banquet of the Dongfang family’s Ancestor. Wasn’t this cursing the Dongfang family’s Ancestor to quickly die?

Dongfang Changming and the other two were so angry that their blood vessels were about to explode.

They did not expect that the Ji, Ning, and Zhao Clans, who had been on good terms with the Dongfang Clan for many years, would not help them when the Dongfang Clan was in danger. Instead, they even hit them when they were down.

At that moment, Dongfang Changming and the other two were filled with despair and extreme anger.

“The Dongfang family is finished.”

When the guests saw this scene, their eyes widened.

They did not expect that not only did the Ancestors of the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families not come, they also sent three juniors with inauspicious gifts to mock the Dongfang family.

As a result, not only did the Dongfang family not borrow the “power” of the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families, they had also become a joke.

Without a doubt, this would make those forces who coveted the Dongfang family even more unscrupulous.

Therefore, many guests at the scene immediately concluded that the Dongfang family was finished.

“The three of you, get lost!”

An angry shout came from the Dongfang family.

Dongfang Mingzhu suddenly appeared beside Dongfang Changming and the other two. With a single slap, she shattered the golden bell, shipwreck, chrysanthemum, and other gifts into dust.

Then, with a sweep of her palm, she sent Ji Chengyu, Ning City, and Zhao Jinghui flying more than ten meters away as if she was sweeping away trash.

“Mingzhu, no!”

Dongfang Changming and the other two were shocked to see Dongfang Mingzhu attacking them.

Even though they wished they could smash Ji Chengyu and the other two into minced meat,

they knew very well that with the current situation of their Dongfang family. They really could not afford to offend the Ji family, the Ning family and the Zhao family.

“Dongfang Mingzhu, how dare you attack us?”

Ji Chengyu, Ning Cheng, and Zhao Jinghui scrambled to their feet and glared at Dongfang Mingzhu.

“Dongfang Mingzhu, do you think your Dongfang family is still the same as before?”

“Your Dongfang family is about to decline… How dare you offend our three great families? At that time, once your Dongfang family’s Ancestor dies, everyone in your Dongfang family will die without a burial place.”

Ji Chengyu said coldly.

Ning Cheng and Zhao Jinghui didn’t say anything. They just stared at Dongfang Mingzhu and sneered.

Suddenly, a hint of greed appeared in their eyes. They walked over and whispered something into Ji Chengyu’s ear.

Ji Chengyu’s eyes lit up and she said sternly, “Dongfang Mingzhu, if your Dongfang family doesn’t want to offend the three big families and don’t want to walk into a dead end because of this… You still have a chance now. Come and play with the three of us.”

As soon as Ji Chengyu said this, the guests in the entire Dongfang family manor immediately erupted.

None of the guests expected Ji Chengyu to make such a ridiculous request since Dongfang Mingzhu was one of the top geniuses in Guangdong Base City. She had a chance to become a King Realm expert in the future.

And who were Ji Chengyu, Ning Cheng, and Zhao Jinghui?

They were a few useless juniors from the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families.

If they did not appear here today, many guests would not recognize them.

These three people actually dared to make such a shameless request.

Dongfang Mingzhu was trembling with anger, and her face was filled with murderous intent. She almost couldn’t resist the urge to kill Ji Chengyu and the other two immediately.

Dongfang Changming, Dongfang Changtian, and Dongfang Yulan were so angry that their faces turned ashen.

Dongfang Mingzhu had the potential to become a King Realm expert and was the future hope of their Dongfang Clan. Now, she had actually been humiliated by three good-for-nothings. This was a great humiliation to their Dongfang Clan.

At this moment, another name was mentioned.

“Battleaxe Martial arts school, Chu Zhou has arrived!”

The voice of the person who called out the name was trembling, as if he was extremely excited.

As soon as the name was announced, all the guests in the banquet suddenly quieted down with shocked expressions on their faces.

The Dongfang family… actually invited the “Tyrannical Blade’ Chu Zhou?

Moreover, Tyrannical Blade Chu Zhou actually came?

There was no one in the world who didn’t know Tyrannical Blade Chu Zhou was!

Even though he was not a King Realm expert yet, he was even more terrifying than ordinary King Realm experts!

“… ‘Tyrannical Blade’ Chu Zhou? Why… Why is he attending the Dongfang family’s birthday banquet?”

Ji Chengyu, Ning Cheng, and Zhao Jinghui’s bodies froze as well. They looked as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight and revealed looks of disbelief.

Dongfang Changming, Dongfang Changtian, and Dongfang Yulan were also stunned.

Of course, they knew the influential Tyrannical Blade, Chu Zhou.

Except, they could not figure out why such a big shot would suddenly come to congratulate their Ancestor.

They did not send an invitation to this person either!

At this moment, Dongfang Mingzhu suppressed the excitement in her heart and smiled at the trio.

“Father, Second Uncle, Aunt… There’s something I haven’t told you. Chu Zhou is my friend. I invited him to attend the Ancestor’s birthday banquet!”

When Dongfang Changming, Dongfang Changtian, and Dongfang Yulan heard this, their eyes instantly widened. Then, they burst into laughter, laughing until tears came out.

“Hahaha, good, good. Mingzhu, you did very well…”

Dongfang Changming patted his daughter’s shoulder excitedly.

He never expected that his daughter was actually a friend of ‘Tyrannical Blade’ Chu Zhou. Moreover, their relationship seemed to be quite deep.

To the Dongfang family, this was simply a windfall from the heavens.

Dongfang Changtian and Dongfang Yulan were equally excited.

What were the Ancestor of the Ji, Ning, and Zhao families? The weight of the Tyrannical Blade, Chu Zhou, was equivalent to the three of them or even far more!
