The woman hiding to make a phone call immediately dashed towards the man.
"Dad, you're finally here. If you hadn't come, I would've been bullied to death."
The man wrapped his arm around the woman's shoulder and snorted, "You're my daughter, Yang Fei's daughter, who has the guts to bully you?"
The two talked while walking forward, followed by a group of bodyguards, looking quite menacing.
The onlookers, seeing a large number of people arriving with them, shrank back quietly, watching from afar.
As a result, Yang Fei and Liu Chan found themselves on a lonely island.
The woman angrily pointed at Yang Fei and Liu Chan.
"They are the ones who hit me!"
Yang Fei stood lazily as if he didn't care.
Liu Chan, however, seemed a bit nervous and stepped forward to stand in front of Yang Fei.
The slightly plump man snorted, stopping less than three meters from Yang Fei.
He was about to say something but caught sight of Yang Fei's face.
Suddenly, the man's expression became quite vivid, shifting from arrogant and domineering to intensely terrified and reverent.
He froze in place.
The woman noticed her father's stunned expression, petulantly nudging his arm.
"Dad, it was this pretty boy and this little girl who hit me. Let Da Huang and the others deal with him harshly."
Yang Fei wouldn't naturally respond well to such individuals.
He looked coldly at the man, his face covered with a layer of frost.
The man suddenly shivered and came back to his senses.
Slap!
The man suddenly turned around and delivered a heavy slap to the woman's face.
The woman was struck with such force that she staggered back and sat on the ground.
She looked at the man in disbelief, "Dad, you..."
This sudden turn of events nearly caused everyone's eyes to bulge out in shock.
Everyone watching was stunned.
The man, having slapped his daughter, trembled all over, nervously walked up to Yang Fei, and bowed deeply.
"I'm sorry, Lord Tiger Owl, I didn't know it was you."
"If I had known your lordship was here, I wouldn't have dared to offend your might, even if it meant dying."
The unexpected change confused Yang Fei as well.
"You are..."
Able to call out the name "Tiger Owl," Yang Fei was almost certain that this guy was from the Underworld of the Southern Thirteen Provinces.
Sure enough, the man respectfully reported his name.
"Lord Tiger Owl, I am Yu Zecheng from East Province, brother of Yu Zewei."
"I also went to Dragon Island that time and saw Lord Tiger Owl's divine might firsthand."
"Yu Zewei?"
Yang Fei understood now.
Yu Zewei was a short and thin man, yet his Kung Fu was extraordinary.
He had already surpassed the Energy Transformation Xuan Grade, almost on par with the Three Swords.
But this Yu Zecheng in front of him, Yang Fei didn't have much impression.
However, he seemed to know him, probably a capable subordinate of Yu Zewei.
Yang Fei sneered, "Brother Yu, you've raised an excellent daughter."
"Our Lanting Group's creed is clearly written in the first rule: no bullying the weak."
"Your daughter bullied an old scavenger; shall we settle this account?"
Yu Zecheng listened to Yang Fei's sharp sneer as if he heard the most terrifying sound in the world, his face turning pale and sweating profusely.
He bowed to Yang Fei, speaking bitterly.
"Yes, Lord Tiger Owl taught me well."
"I didn't discipline my daughter properly and broke the rules; I will certainly give Lord Tiger Owl an explanation."
Yu Zecheng gestured behind him, and two bodyguards pushed the woman in front of Yang Fei.
The woman was dumbfounded.
In the East Province, she was akin to a princess.
Her uncle ruled with an iron hand, and her father's corporation was wealthy and powerful.
No one in the East Province would dare provoke her.
She never expected her father, who always spoiled her, would slap her in front of this pretty boy.
And her father's attitude was nearly sycophantic.
This pretty boy hiding behind the woman, named Tiger Owl, who exactly is he?
Yu Zecheng sternly: "Apologize to Lord Tiger Owl!"
The woman was unwilling.
But she had never seen her father so nervous and fearful, so she reluctantly bowed to Yang Fei.
"Sorry."
Yang Fei snorted lightly, raised his hand to stop her bow, and spoke coldly.
"The one you're wrong to isn't me."
"After all, you're a child of the Mortal World, using a fake dress to bully an old person, is that fun?"
The woman's face turned red instantly.
Yang Fei briefly explained the incident to Yu Zecheng, without embellishment, directly recounting the woman's actions.
Yu Zecheng became furious and embarrassed.
Overwhelmed with anger, he slapped the woman's cheek and then kicked her hard.
The woman screamed, trying to evade Yu Zecheng.
But two big men held her down, preventing her from moving.
Yu Zecheng's eyes blazed with anger as he pointed at her and shouted.
"You've grown so bold, bullying the elderly?"
"You've disgraced me and your uncle completely."
Yu Zecheng waved in disgust.
"Have the girl apologize to the old man and be sincere."
Yu Zecheng's attitude utterly terrified the woman.
She dared not defy him, stepped forward, and bowed deeply to the elder.
"I'm sorry, old man, I..."
She bit her lip, hesitating to continue.
Yu Zecheng shouted, "Kneel down!"
The woman shivered, knees weakening, and she knelt, trembling.
The old man panicked, wanting to support her but afraid his hands might be dirty.
She trembled violently.
"Girl... what are you doing?"
"This old lady can't bear it, please get up."
The old man's hand cleaned on his lapel before helping the woman up.
Full of grievances, the woman burst into tears and then ran off without looking back.
"Miss, miss, where are you going?"
Two big men took off after her, but Yu Zecheng shouted.
"Return, let her go."
He finished, turned, and gave a bitter smile.
"Lord Tiger Owl, I failed to teach my daughter correctly, I beg for your pardon."
As he spoke, he extended his right hand and abruptly broke his left pinky finger.
There was a sharp crack, and his left pinky instantly suffered a compound fracture, hanging limply.
Yu Zecheng grunted in pain, clutching his finger as sweat poured down his forehead.
Yang Fei nodded slightly, took his left hand, and corrected the fractured bone.
He sighed softly.
"Brother Yu, it's not that I want to make things difficult for you."
"For we who practice martial arts, if we lack a sense of justice and the distinction between good and evil, we will surely tread a crooked path and harm both ourselves and others."
He said calmly, "I see that your daughter is spoiled and arrogant; without strict discipline, she will likely bring you great trouble."
Yu Zecheng was drenched in cold sweat, knowing Yang Fei spoke the truth.
Yu Zecheng and his elder brother Yu Zewei rose in the East Province's Underworld, committing many illegal acts early on.
However, over the years, the two brothers have slowly cleaned up their act.
After joining the Lanting Group, Yu Zecheng's company was functioning properly, totally shedding any ties to gray market business.
But this doesn't mean Yu Zecheng and his brother are entirely clean.
The authorities only need to catch some evidence or hold against them to easily imprison the Yu brothers.
