Chapter 2216: Abnormal Brain

“That’s right, the former isn’t important; the latter is.”

Guan Youcai succinctly recounted the events of the auction, concluding, “After leaving Jubao Pavilion, Laiyang Princess, Young Master Yuan, and Young Master Gong came to settle scores with Young Master.”

Upon hearing this, Guan Chengfang’s heart tightened: “What was the result? They didn’t cripple Young Master, did they?”

Regardless, this was his only biological son, so it was fake to say that Guan Chengfang was not nervous.

“No, they didn’t.”

Guan Youcai said somewhat awkwardly, “It was Young Master who snatched Gong Yuming’s Storage Ring and publicly stripped him of his clothes.”

“Nonsense! This is utter nonsense!”

Guan Chengfang hadn’t expected his son to go so overboard. In his fury, he slapped Guan Youcai across the face.

“You dog slave, what use do I have for you? Why didn’t you stop Young Master?”

Guan Youcai felt utterly wronged. As a slave, he was beaten by the son, then by the father. Was there any way to live?

But there was nothing he could do. Since he was a slave, he could only lower his head and say, “I did try to stop him, but Young Master wouldn’t listen.”

“Stop your damn nonsense! Quickly, is there anything else?”

Guan Chengfang said, while quickly calculating in his mind that this matter was quite serious, but with his relationship with the Gong family, it should still be salvageable.

Guan Youcai said, “Young Master also broke Young Master Yuan’s two legs…”

“Oh, broke two legs…”

Guan Chengfang was still contemplating the Gong family matter and reacted a bit slowly. When he came to his senses, he jumped up as if electrocuted.

“What did you say? Tell me again, what did that little beast do?”

“Young Master… he broke Yuan Qihang’s two legs!”

Confirming that he had not misheard, Guan Chengfang felt a wave of dizziness and fell straight backward.

“Master, are you alright?”

Guan Youcai quickly reached out and supported him.

“Unfilial son, you beast!”

At this moment, Guan Chengfang wished he could immediately dismember Guan Qirui. Bringing back a female Devil King before was one thing, but now he was pushing the Guan family to its death. What else could this be but an unfilial son?

Although the Guan family had some influence in the Great Shun Empire, it was still a far cry from the Minister of War.

Directly breaking the son’s legs, this matter would probably not end well.

He patted his dizzy head and asked, “Is there anything else? Tell me everything at once.”

“Just one more thing!”

Guan Youcai knew he couldn’t hide it, so he bit the bullet and said, “Young Master also tied Laiyang Princess to a tree.”

“I…”

Guan Chengfang, who had just stood straight, fell backward again. Offending a Minister of War was one thing, but now he had tied Laiyang Princess to a tree. Could this disaster get any bigger?

“Master, Master, are you alright?”

Guan Youcai helped him sit on a nearby chair.

“Beast, you scoundrel! How could my Guan family give birth to such an unfilial son?”

Guan Chengfang was trembling with rage, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood.

“Go and call that unfilial son over to me right now. No, have someone tie him up and bring him over, tie him up!”

He was truly enraged, wishing he could kill Guan Qirui immediately.

Just then, a loud bang echoed from outside, as if a large gate had collapsed.

Immediately after, an angry roar spread throughout the entire Guan family: “Guan Chengfang, get out here!

If you don’t give this King an explanation today, I will wipe out your entire family!”

Guan Chengfang shivered with fright. From the voice, he knew it was Laiyang King Dugu Zhan.

This King was originally ill-tempered, and he also controlled the military power of the entire Great Shun Empire, holding the position of Grand Marshal of the Imperial Army. He was a powerful figure in the entire Imperial City, second only to Prince Kaoshan.

Now that Laiyang Princess had been tied to a tree, it was equivalent to publicly slapping his face. How could he not be angry?

Guan Chengfang felt like crying, but there was nothing he could do now. The matter had happened, and he had to deal with it. He could only brace himself and walk outside.

When he rushed outside with Guan Youcai, he found that the entire Guan Mansion was surrounded by the Royal Mansion’s Imperial Guards.

The leading Middle-aged Man wore a yellow robe.

His round, large face was greasy, his small eyes were almost invisible, and his big belly protruded high, making him look like a round, plump red sweet potato.

This person was precisely Dugu Zhan, the Laiyang King of the Great Shun Empire.

If Ye Bufan were here and saw this person, he would surely exclaim that Laiyang Princess truly took after her father.

Moreover, this time it was not only people from the Laiyang Royal Mansion who came; Minister of War Yuan Dahua also stood nearby, along with Gong Junxiong, the head of the Gong family.

All three of them had dark expressions and faces full of anger.

“Guan Chengfang greets Your Royal Highness, greets Minister Yuan, greets Family Head Gong…”

At this moment, Guan Chengfang knew he was in the wrong. Upon seeing the three, he immediately bowed respectfully, adopting the lowest possible attitude.

Gong Junxiong said with a gloomy expression, “Guan Chengfang, I ask myself if my Gong family has treated you poorly. A few days ago, when you came to my house to borrow Spirit Stones, I, Gong, helped you without reservation.

But how did you treat me? You actually let your son humiliate my son, not only stealing his Storage Ring but also stripping him naked!

What are you trying to do? Are you still putting my Gong family in your eyes?”

Minister of War Yuan Dahua’s voice was also filled with anger: “Family Head Guan, may I ask what grudge I have with you?

You actually let your son break my son’s legs. Today, you must give me, Yuan, an explanation!”

Dugu Zhan’s expression was cold, and a cold glint flickered in his small eyes.

“Guan Chengfang, your son actually dared to tie the Princess to a big tree. Does he still have me, this King, in his eyes? Does he still have the Great Shun Empire’s royal family in his eyes?

If you don’t give this King a satisfactory explanation today, I will wipe out your entire family!”

Although this fellow was a bit ugly, as the Grand Marshal of the Three Armies, he still possessed that Killing Intent.

“Your Royal Highness, Minister Yuan, Family Head Gong, this old man apologizes on behalf of my unruly son. Please allow me to explain.”

Yuan Dahua’s expression was cold: “Let’s see what you have to say.”

As the head of the Guan family, Guan Chengfang’s mind was also very agile, and he had already thought of an excuse on the way.

“Gentlemen, to be honest, my Guan family has been unfortunate, and a major incident has occurred.

The other day, my good-for-nothing son picked up a woman from outside, and unexpectedly, she turned out to be a female Devil King.

She directly demolished my Guan family’s house and extorted a large sum of money, which is why I asked Brother Gong for a loan.”

Speaking of this, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the inner residence. Because all the family’s money had been extorted by that woman, it had not been fully repaired even now, looking like a ruin.

Dugu Zhan and the other two frowned, knowing that what he said was true.

Yuan Dahua said, “What does this have to do with your son breaking my son’s two legs?”

“Minister Yuan, although that matter has subsided, my son was beaten and tormented by that Devil Woman and suffered a great shock. His mind is completely abnormal now.

You try to imagine, if a normal person, how could he do such a thing?”

This was both the excuse Guan Chengfang came up with and his inner thought.

He felt that his son must have been stimulated; otherwise, he wouldn’t have done this.

“This…”

Dugu Zhan, Yuan Dahua, and Gong Junxiong exchanged glances and largely agreed with Guan Chengfang’s explanation.

Because they also couldn’t understand why this Young Master Guan suddenly went mad, daring to provoke all three of their families at once. How was this different from seeking self-destruction?

If he said his mind had been stimulated, this reason was barely acceptable.

Gong Junxiong said, “Even if that’s the case, it’s barely excusable, but no matter what, you must give us an explanation for today’s matter!”
