Qin Yi and the others had dinner, packed some dried little fish for Lang Ya, and wandered around Peng City until the evening before heading back.
As they approached the Feather Clan’s gate, they saw Yun Lin waiting anxiously from afar.
"Yaoyao, you’re finally back!"
"What’s wrong? Did something happen?"
Yun Mengyao asked.
Yun Lin said, "The Clan Leader asked me to wait here and told you to go to the Holy Hall as soon as you return."
"What’s really going on?"
Yun Lin shook his head, "I’m not sure, but the elders all looked very displeased, please be careful."
Yun Mengyao sneered, "Let’s go."
The group headed to the Holy Hall.
Yun Lin said, "Clan Leader, Yaoyao is back."
Before Yun Tianli could speak, an elder stood up and said, "Eldest Miss, it’s heard that you offended the Liang Family again in front of Yunbin Building today?"
Yun Mengyao was slightly taken aback, "Did you send someone to follow me?"
"Is there even a need for that? By the afternoon, it had spread throughout Peng City that our Feather Clan’s Eldest Miss punished a wicked young master in front of Yunbin Building, praised by the people."
Yun Mengyao realized the news of her beating Liang Zifei had spread.
She smiled and said, "Is there a problem with this?"
"Liang Zifei is such a good-for-nothing, why wouldn’t I hit him?"
"You just hit him? Eldest Miss, don’t forget, you recently offended the Golden Winged Roc Clan, and now you’ve offended the Liang Family again, do you really want to bring our Feather Clan to ruin?"
Yun Mengyao looked at him coldly, "As an elder of the Feather Clan, you’re timid and overcautious, unworthy of your position."
"What about the Golden Winged Roc Clan? What about the Liang Family? Do we still need to offend the Liang Family? Are you friends with them?"
"You..." The elder was so furious he almost exploded, "Eldest Miss, please don’t slander me."
"If you don’t want me to slander you, shut up. Liang Zifei insulted me, can I just let it slide?"
"Remember clearly, the Feather Clan fears no one. If anyone dares to bully us, beat them to a pulp. I’ll take responsibility for any consequences."
Yun Mengyao said assertively.
"You’ll take responsibility? Eldest Miss, may I ask how you plan to do that?"
Yun Mengyao harshly retorted, "Are you questioning me or just finding an excuse for your cowardice?"
"Eldest Miss, don’t go too far, I am at least your elder."
"Ridiculous, cowering and groveling, the only advantage you have standing in this Holy Hall is your old age. Don’t try to pull rank on me, I’m not buying it."
The elder was so agitated his face turned red and his neck swelled up, he almost passed out from anger.
"Eldest Miss, we respect you. But don’t forget, the Feather Clan isn’t yours alone. Do you even respect the Clan Leader?"
"Shut up!" Yun Mengyao shouted angrily, "Since when did the Feather Clan fall so far, cowering in fear. Go practice courage before talking to me again."
"I’ve said it, I will ensure the safety of the hundreds in the Feather Clan, I say what I mean, you don’t have to worry about anything else."
"Again, if you’re afraid, leave the Feather Clan early, we do not welcome cowards."
The group of elders was so intimidated by Yun Mengyao’s assertiveness, each one’s face turned red, not knowing how to counter.
Because speaking up now would mark them as cowards.
Yun Tianli spoke up, "Yaoyao, don’t get so angry. The elders are also thinking for the Feather Clan."
"Offending two major families at once, it’s not a good thing for us."
Yun Mengyao looked up at Yun Tianli and said, "Clan Leader, the faster the Feather Clan grovels, the quicker it will be destroyed. Please trust me, I will handle these matters well."
"Even if I can let down everyone else, I cannot let down my parents. My father’s life’s wish was to see the Feather Clan flourish, I won’t harm the Feather Clan."
Yun Tianli deeply sighed, "Child, you’ve changed a lot since you returned after these years."
"Yaoyao, although I don’t know what your backing is, your second uncle supports you."
"You’re right, the Feather Clan has never been for cowards. Bowing and scraping will only hasten the Clan’s extinction. Better to live gloriously once than humbly forever."
Yun Mengyao rarely showed a smile, "Thank you, Clan Leader, you and I are family, blood is thicker than water, I promise I won’t let you down."
"Just wait and see! Whether it’s the Golden Winged Roc Clan or the Liang Family, if they dare show their teeth to the Feather Clan, I’ll ensure they’re beyond redemption."
"Second Uncle, Big Uncle, it’s getting late, rest early."
Yun Mengyao respectfully bowed without saying much more and bid farewell to Qin Yi and the others.
As soon as Yun Mengyao left, the great hall erupted into chaos.
...
...
The next day, in the morning.
Qin Yi found an excuse to leave the Feather Clan.
He had a million gold coins waiting for him.
Qin Yi arrived at Yunbin Building.
As he entered, a man dressed in gold approached him, "Are you Young Master Qin?"
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
"Follow me."
Qin Yi followed him to the door of a room.
"The young madam is waiting for you inside, go in."
The young madam refers to Yun Luocai.
Qin Yi’s lips curved slightly, this woman was quite cautious, he could clearly sense that many formidable individuals were hidden in the surrounding rooms.
Qin Yi knocked on the door, waited for a response inside, then pushed the door open and entered.
Upon entering the room, there was indeed a woman, but it was not Yun Luocai.
A beautiful woman in a sheer dress, barely concealing her figure, sat by the bed, looking at him with a seductive, yet not foul, expression.
However, the woman wore heavy makeup.
"Where is Yun Luocai?"
Qin Yi looked around, asking nonchalantly.
The woman giggled, "The young madam holds a noble position and finds it inconvenient to move, so she sent me to conduct the transaction with you."
"Then let’s trade," Qin Yi said bluntly.
The woman was momentarily stunned, her eyes somewhat wistful, "Surely the young master is not so lacking in romance, do I look very ugly?"
Qin Yi was slightly surprised, "What’s that got to do with whether you’re ugly or not?"
The woman looked at Qin Yi with a seductive gaze, licking her red lips, and said alluringly, "The young madam ordered me to ensure you are happy. If you’re willing, I am yours to do as you wish."
When a beautiful woman with a seductive figure tells you that you can do anything you want with her, most men can’t resist.
Qin Yi held a smile at the corner of his mouth, walking over step by step.
The woman was full of coquettishness, slightly moving further into the bed, purposefully propping up her chest, showing off her voluptuous figure.
Qin Yi stood before the bed, lifting the woman’s chin with his hand, "Your appearance is pretty good, just the makeup is a bit thick."
As he spoke, he disdainfully wiped his finger on the woman’s shoulder, leaving some white streaks... the makeup on this woman’s face was indeed thick, like a layer of plaster.
The woman’s smile froze instantly, in disbelief there exists a man who wouldn’t take the bait on her offer?
"Where’s the gold coins?"
Qin Yi asked.
The woman snapped back to reality, looking at Qin Yi with a gaze full of melancholy, and more of regret. She used to be the top courtesan, hired by Yun Luocai. Qin Yi was extraordinarily handsome, to have such an encounter with a man like him, she would be willing even without money. However, this man seems to not be interested in romance.
