Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 2301: Chapter 2336: Renowned Far and Wide

Ding Lin and the others raised their heads, looking at the Great Elder, but said nothing in the end, turning around to retreat into the distance. This Great Elder held high prestige within the family; no one dared to defy his will.

The soldiers and onlookers all withdrew, leaving Ding Fan and a group of elders in the courtyard of the Elders’ Council Hall, along with Yun Haitao and Zhong Zhiyong.

The Great Elder looked at Yun Haitao and said, "Ao Zai, take Yun Haitao back to Yunxiao Palace. At the same time, tell Yun Wanxiong that the marriage agreement between Ao Shuang and Yun Haitao has been annulled. Let him properly discipline his son in the future."

"Ah?"

Ding Lianhe and the others were shocked, opening their mouths to say something but were interrupted by the Great Elder with a wave of his hand, saying, "Handle this matter as I’ve instructed; no further objections are allowed."

Fifth Elder Ding Aotian nodded, lifted Yun Haitao, and flew out of Sirius Mountain, disappearing from the public’s view.

The Grand Elder looked at Ding Lianhe and Ding Jingxiu, pondered a bit, then said to them, "Lianhe, Jingxiu, remember this: no matter what happens, do not let the Ding Family disciples feel disheartened. The Sirius Clan has stood firm in the Central Plains for a million years, not relying solely on martial power or the Sirius heritage, but on the unity and cohesion of our Ding Family members. Let’s put this matter to rest; I will deal with Ding Fan."

"Whoosh!"

After finishing his words, the Great Elder grabbed Ding Fan in one swift move and disappeared from the courtyard of the Elders’ Hall, leaving the elders looking at each other with complex expressions on their faces.

"This matter was my mistake..."

The Seventh Elder sighed softly, now completely calm. He had acted rashly earlier, but had he controlled the situation calmly from the start, things wouldn’t have escalated as they did.

The Seventh Elder understood well why the Great Elder handled the matter this way. Ding Fan managed to nearly kill Yun Haitao, a Sixth Level Expert of the Divine Realm, twice while only in the Third Level Realm of the Divine Realm; the Great Elder’s forgiveness of all Ding Fan’s errors was deserved.

Although Yun Haitao was a worthless man, he was nonetheless a stable Sixth Level Expert of the Divine Realm, yet such an expert almost died twice at the hands of Ding Fan in the Third Level. This alone showed how extraordinarily talented Ding Fan was, and such a genius, the Great Elder would never exile him to Ferocious Ghost Island.

For any family, having talented disciples is more important than anything else. Ignorance of the rules can be taught slowly; youthful recklessness can be understood. However, exceptional talent is not something easily encountered.

...

After being grabbed by the Great Elder, Ding Fan only felt a flash before his eyes and found himself standing outside the castle gates of the Great Elder.

The old man waved his hand, and the gate silently opened. With no words spoken, he led Ding Fan inside.

The ancient castle was not as luxurious as imagined; rather, it was quite simple. Upon entering, there was a hall with several round tables and a pot of hot tea.

Upon entering, the old man put down Ding Fan, walked straight to the mat behind a round table, and sat down cross-legged. After pouring himself a cup of tea, he then spoke to Ding Fan, "Heal your injuries first. You, child, have a temper as hot as your master’s."

Ding Fan silently took out a towel to wipe away the bloodstains, retracted the Purple Gold Wolf Claw Divine Technique, changed into a clean robe, swallowed a healing medicine, and concealed the small Sirius in his sleeve.

After completing everything, he sat down in front of the Great Elder, picked up a cup of tea, poured himself a cup, rinsed his mouth, and drank it even rudely, as if the Great Elder was invisible.

"Haha!"

Seeing Ding Fan’s demeanor, the old man was pleased instead, squinted his eyes at Ding Fan and said, "What’s wrong? Are you mad at me? Child, your master calls me Great Uncle, do you not know how to respect the elderly?"

Ding Fan glanced at the Grand Elder and said, "You’re not a good person either, old man. Can you say you don’t know about my master’s matter? You never showed up until things escalated. I don’t see you as any good elder."

"Hahaha!"

The Great Elder was not angered but laughed, shook his head, and said to Ding Fan, "Are you blaming me for that? I haven’t paid attention to the family’s trivial matters for years. You say that without a commotion, I wouldn’t come out, but you’re mistaken. Even if you had actually killed that kid Yun Haitao, what would be the big deal?"

Ding Fan considered the reality; this old man’s strength was such that even if he destroyed the entire Yunxiao Palace, he likely wouldn’t even frown. Such matters were nothing to him.

In any case, the Great Elder eventually came forward and publicly announced the annulment of the marriage agreement between Yun Haitao and Ding Aoshuang, allowing Ding Fan’s anger to subside somewhat. He took a sip of tea, nodded, and said, "Very well, let this matter be settled. Great Elder, I want to ask you something... What’s happened to my Ancestral Master? Has he passed away?"

The old man’s face slightly darkened, paused to think, then said, "Your realm is indeed too low now; telling you would be of no benefit. Wait until your realm reaches the Seventh Level of the Divine Realm, and then you will naturally have the right to know. But I can tell you, your Ancestral Master is still alive."

"That’s good..."

Relief rose from the depths of Ding Fan’s heart; as long as the Ancestral Master was still alive, he would meet him eventually.

Ding Fan ceased his questions, and the Great Elder began to inquire, "Brat, why is the Sirius inheritance so low? How did you acquire your claw? It feels akin to the Inherited Divine Technique. What was that growling just now? Is your little beast at the Beast King-level?"

"This old man’s eyes are very perceptive."

Ding Fan thought secretly, yet he wasn’t ready to reveal the truth to the Great Elder. Although the Seventh Elder had reassured him, saying that the Great Elder’s loyalty to the family and Ancestral Master was absolute, the Seventh Elder’s recent actions made Ding Fan uncomfortable, resulting in his distrust towards the Great Elder as well.

He said nonchalantly, "I don’t know why my Sirius inheritance is so low. As for this beast claw and that roar, they’re just some martial skills I got from an ancient tomb. For someone like you, these are nothing more than trivial martial skills, not worth mentioning!"

"What about your clone martial skill?"

The Great Elder smiled and said, "That couldn’t be trivial, right? And I seem to sense the true insight of heaven and earth in it?"

Ding Fan, with no intention to hide, said frankly, "There is indeed a kind of heaven earth true insight in it, specifically a reflecting true essence, but it was something I unintentionally comprehended."

"Unintentionally..."

Ding Fan’s relaxed demeanor left the Great Elder at a loss for words. Since Ding Fan refused to divulge anything further, he decided not to press on. Squinting his eyes for a moment, he remarked with some emotion, "This kid’s luck is truly extraordinary, but your Sirius inheritance divine skill is really too low."

After a while, the old man asked, "Where is your master? Do you really not know?"

Ding Fan only withheld some information and was unwilling to say it at the moment, so he retorted, "If I knew where my master was, how could I come back alone? On the road, I almost died several times, even my senior sister was captured by people from Tongzhou. If our master were with us, would we be in such a state? I’m only at the third level mid-stage of the god realm now."

"Sigh..."

The Great Elder sighed lightly, shook his head, and said, "Your master has the same temperament as you. He’s as stubborn as an old ox. If he hadn’t left home back then, your ancestral master wouldn’t have experienced such things, and the Ding Family wouldn’t have fallen to this state..."

"What happened?" Ding Fan frowned, repeatedly asking, "What happened to my ancestral master?"

"I already said, I can’t tell you now!"

The Great Elder waved his hand and said, "You’d better go back and practice well. If you need any resources, you can go and find your Fifth Uncle-Master. Wait until your realm reaches the sixth level of the divine realm, then come see me. Be steady in the family and don’t stir up trouble anymore; otherwise, even I won’t be able to protect you."

The incident of Ding Fan going berserk in the Elders’ Council Hall quickly spread across the entire Sirius Mountain, and soon the entire Sirius City knew about it.

The whole Sirius City instantly became lively; it hadn’t seen such explosive news in a long time.

The most important thing is, even the Great Elder was shocked by this event, and the incident originated because Ding Aoshuang was bullied, and Ding Fan came forward as her junior nephew to seek justice for her.

Before the elders, Yun Haitao almost died twice at Ding Fan’s hands. Although just a third-level young individual in the divine realm, as Ding Aohuang’s disciple, he was still impressive, and this naturally caused a sensation.

Many people previously didn’t know Ding Fan’s identity, but everyone knew now. Many also confirmed that Ding Fan is indeed the inheritance disciple of the Young Family Head, Ding Aohuang, which means he is the inheritor of this generation.

If he weren’t Aohuang’s disciple, how could he stand up for Ding Aoshuang? Ding Aoshuang is Ding Aohuang’s own sister. Just because of Ding Fan standing up, the Great Elder canceled the marriage engagement between Ding Aoshuang and Yun Haitao, which precisely proved that Ding Fan is indeed the disciple of Ding Aohuang.

The annulment of the engagement was a severe blow to the Yunxiao Palace, which might provoke the anger of Yun Wanxiong, the Palace Master of Yunxiao. If Yun Wanxiong no longer submits to the Sirius Clan because of this, it wouldn’t be good for the Ding Family.

The Grand Elder said he would punish Ding Fan, but there was no further development. Ding Fan was taken to the Great Elder’s castle and, without notifying anyone, was sent back to his place.

It was clear that the Great Elder favored Ding Fan, and this matter would certainly end this way.

No matter what the reality was, Ding Fan’s reputation was thoroughly established in Sirius City and the entire Sirius Clan.

Ding Fan’s identity as the inheritor of the Young Family Head of the Ding Family spread like wildfire. His charisma and determined actions quickly made him an idol among the Ding Family disciples.

...

Since Ding Fan wasn’t punished, Zhong Zhiyong was even less in trouble. As Ding Fan’s servant, he merely obeyed Ding Fan’s orders completely, committing no grave errors, and punishing him would be pointless. If they did, Ding Fan might erupt again.

When Ding Fan returned to his residence, Ding Aoshuang had already heard the news. She was crying like a tearful woman. Seeing Ding Fan come back unharmed, she quickly ran out, hugged him tightly, and began to sob again.

"Hmm, Master Aunt, your engagement with Yun Haitao has been annulled. As long as your junior nephew is alive, no one can bully you!"

Ding Fan gently patted Ding Aoshuang’s shoulder, comforting her. Ding Aoshuang nodded heavily but couldn’t say anything.

Leading Ding Aoshuang inside the residence and comforting her a bit, Ding Fan only inquired about why Yun Haitao dared to bully her after her emotions stabilized.

Ding Aoshuang, as the daughter of the Sirius Clan’s head, how could a Young Palace Master of an affiliated force have such courage? Even if her ancestral master had an accident, wasn’t he still alive? Although Ding Aohuang had gone far to the Northern Wastelands, he would return someday.

Ding Aoshuang hesitated for a long time before finally revealing the truth, and that’s when Ding Fan learned about the events back then.

Two hundred years ago, Ding Aohuang, angry over a trivial matter with his father, left home in a rage. At the time, Ding Aoshuang was just a young teenager, and Ding Fan’s ancestral master was very angry. He went into seclusion and ordered no one in the family to look for Ding Aohuang, letting him fend for himself.
