Chapter 968 – Ruler of the world, Di Beichen
“Xie Qiyi, this couple were already my friends, and yesterday’s trouble was caused by Xie Honglang. The actions of the couple were not inappropriate at all. If you intend to bully others today, I will certainly not stand idly by. This couple are honored guests of my Yuan family, not someone you can casually mess with.”
Yuan Hongyang’s attitude was exceptionally firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
The Yuan family was currently the strongest in Yuanwu City, and his actions had the support from the Yuan family. Xie Qiyi’s threats were of no concern to him.
Looking at Yuan Hongyang’s resolute attitude, Xie Qiyi was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected Yuan Hongyang to be so resolute, which was contrary to the usual style of the Yuan family.
“Yuan Hongyang, everyone here is smart. Don’t pretend to be noble. If these two are really your friends, why didn’t they immediately stay at the Yuan family? Why choose to stay at an inn? Even if you want to pick a fight with my Xie family, you should find a less obvious excuse!” Xie Qiyi sneered.
Listening to Xie Qiyi’s words, Yuan Hongyang remained composed. “I invited the couple earlier, but they didn’t want to disturb us, so they decided to stay at the inn. However, if you intend to trouble them, my Yuan family will not sit idly by.”
Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen stood quietly on the side. The conflict between Yuan Hongyang and Xie Qiyi seemed unrelated to them.
In fact, Baili Hongzhuang actually felt this way.
Xie Qiyi had originally come to cause trouble for her and Beichen, but the focus had completely shifted now. She and Beichen had become spectators, which was quite amusing.
Xie Qiyi frowned. Yuan Hongyang’s confident appearance didn’t seem like a pretense, but this made it even more difficult for him to deal with the two.
“Yuan Hongyang, are you saying that you want to break ties with my Xie family?” Xie Qiyi’s eyes were sharp, and his voice was filled with threat.
The actions of Di Beichen and the others had undoubtedly humiliated the Xie family in front of everyone. Xie Qiyi couldn’t let Di Beichen and the others go so easily; otherwise, it would be a real loss of face for the Xie family.
However, once the Yuan family got involved, the situation would undoubtedly become more complicated.
Just as Yuan Hongyang was about to speak, Di Beichen spoke first.
“I’ll give you two choices: either leave now, or never think about leaving again.”
Di Beichen’s words were filled with the aura of an emperor, dominating the surroundings. He stood there indifferently, his gaze disdainful, as if he had never regarded Xie Qiyi as a threat from the beginning.
In reality, he didn’t care about the Xie family. When Xie Honglang caused trouble, he only felt that the other party had disrupted their meal and didn’t want to be too severe, so he taught him a lesson and let him leave.
Now that Xie Qiyi clearly wanted to escalate the situation, he would not be polite. If the other party didn’t know how to behave, killing him immediately would be the solution.
Baili Hongzhuang shared the same thoughts as Di Beichen. They were outsiders and didn’t need to consider the complicated local power dynamics of the Xie family.
Kill him, end of story.
The eyes of the crowd converged on Di Beichen, and his words were extremely shocking. The white-robed woman standing beside him remained calm, gently caressing the contract beast in her arms, tranquil and indifferent.
