Chapter 416

Duanmu Jun's angry shout had just fallen, without waiting for Duanmu Hongjie to open his mouth to refute, a plain voice rang out.

I am Duanmu Hongjie's older brother; I came today to seek justice for my brother.

Jiang Feng slowly raised his head, his gaze fell on Duanmu Jun's face, his Tone had no fluctuation.

Duanmu Hongjie heard these words, his nose felt sour, his eye sockets instantly turned red.

He never expected Jiang Feng to, in front of so many people, personally acknowledge him as his little brother and speak up to seek justice for him.

At this moment, all his grievances vanished like smoke.

He suddenly puffed out his chest, Standing beside Jiang Feng, his chin slightly raised, his eyes full of pride.

Duanmu Jun simply did not know Jiang Feng.

Upon hearing Jiang Feng's words, Duanmu Jun first froze, then let out a scoffing laugh.

You? Duanmu Hongjie's older brother? Hah, that's laughable!

I tell you plainly, Duanmu Hongjie has long been expelled from our Duanmu Family's clan.

You call yourself his older brother? You still want to come to our Duanmu Family to seek justice? I think your brain is not clear, you've come to the wrong Place!

In his view, Jiang Feng was a clueless hothead who, relying on a bit of courage, dared to cause trouble at the Duanmu Family in the Provincial Capital, truly seeking his own death.

Having said that, he no longer bothered with Jiang Feng, turned and ran toward Jiangnan Wang, his face instantly switching to a fawning smile.

His waist bent like a shrimp, his posture of bowing and kneeling reached the extreme.

I am Duanmu Jun, leading all members of the Duanmu Family, to pay respects to Your Highness the Prince!

Duanmu Jun spoke while deeply bowing to Jiangnan Wang, his voice carrying deliberate lowered respect.

I didn't expect the Prince's esteemed presence; I failed to welcome you from afar, please forgive me, Prince!

Prince, you must be tired from your journey; please come in for a chat, I have already prepared a fine banquet, guaranteed to satisfy you!

He said this, not forgetting to glance back at Jiang Feng and Duanmu Hongjie.

Here there are two ignorant villains causing trouble; to avoid sullying the Prince's eyes, I will have them driven out!

Duanmu Jun felt that being so sensible, Jiangnan Wang would surely look upon him differently, perhaps even take this opportunity to promote the Duanmu Family well.

By then, his position as Family Head would be more secure, the Duanmu Family could soar to great heights, becoming the Provincial Capital's truly top-tier family!

Never could he have imagined Ten Thousand Ten Thousand that Jiangnan Wang didn't even lift an eyelid, completely ignoring his flattery.

He quickly walked up to Jiang Feng and uttered a sentence that astonished everyone present.

Mr. Jiang, these people of the Duanmu Family are disrespectful toward you; how to deal with them is entirely up to your orders! The little prince will follow your arrangements completely!

Swish!

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue fell silent in an instant.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Duanmu Family widened their eyeballs, their faces full of disbelief Shock, as if they had seen a ghost!

Duanmu Jun froze outright on the spot, his fawning smile instantly solidified.

His body went limp, he almost collapsed to the ground.

Just who is this Mr. Jiang?!

How could he make the high and mighty Prince Jiangnan so humble?

What kind of person is the Jiangnan Wang? He is an Imperial Clan member, the current Emperor's own uncle, the sole ruler of the Jiangnan Region!

Usually, not to mention bowing to others, even when facing other nobles and officials, he always acts high and mighty!

But now, the Jiangnan Wang actually shows such respect to a young person? This completely overturns their Knowledge!

A strong fear instantly enveloped Duanmu Jun, making his whole body icy cold, he couldn't help shivering.

He faintly felt that he had provoked a huge trouble, a big shot even the Jiangnan Wang couldn't afford to offend!

Jiang Feng glanced lightly at the pallid Duanmu Jun, the corner of his mouth curling up in a half-smile.

Head of Duanmu Family, I now say, I am Duanmu Hongjie's older brother; what do you say?

A simple sentence, yet like a heavy hammer, it struck hard on Duanmu Jun's heart.

Duanmu Jun's cold sweat instantly burst from his forehead, the clothes on his back soaked through with cold sweat.

He stared fixedly at Jiang Feng, his brain racing.

He didn't know this young man, but Jiangnan Wang's attitude toward him was truly bizarre!

He just couldn't figure out how Duanmu Hongjie, this family‑expelled stray dog, could have such good luck.

Before, following Jiang Feng, he was doing great; just recently expelled from the Duanmu Family, he turned around and latched onto such a thick thigh, to the point that even Jiangnan Wang must treat him with respect!

How is it that every Jiang under heaven wants to take this guy as a little brother?

Wait...

Mr. Jiang?

Surname Jiang?

Duanmu Jun's pupils shrank sharply, a terrible thought instantly surged into his mind!

Could this young man possibly be the Jiang Feng rumored to have died?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

He immediately shook his head, flinging that thought away.

Wasn't Jiang Feng already dead?

And wasn't Prince Jiangnan the one who hated Jiang Feng the most before?

The Duanmu Family expelled Duanmu Hongjie and removed Duanmu Ya merely to curry favor with Jiangnan Wang, fearing they'd be implicated by Jiang Feng!

How is it that Prince Jiangnan now treats Jiang Feng with such respect?

And even obeys his every command?

This person is absolutely not Jiang Feng!

And upon seeing Duanmu Jun remain silent in response to Jiang Feng's question, the anger in Jiangnan Wang's heart instantly erupted!

"Pa!"

Without a word, he raised his hand and slapped Duanmu Jun hard across the face!

"Jiang Feng sir is asking you a question! Are you deaf?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Duanmu family was utterly stunned!

"Mr. Jiang Feng?"

He is actually the Jiang Feng rumored to have been beaten to death by Jun Wuji, leaving no corpse?!

This is utterly absurd!

Now the sky has truly fallen!

Everyone in the Duanmu family felt despair fill their hearts.

They had previously expelled Jiang Feng's junior disciple Duanmu Hongjie from the family and removed Jiang Feng's supporter Duanmu Ya from her position……

Now, Jiang Feng has not only returned alive, but even Jiangnan Wang treats him with such respect.

Our Duanmu family has completely offended Jiang Feng to death!

Duanmu Jun was dazed by that slap, taking a good while to regain his senses.

But he didn't have time to feel the pain, quickly wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face instantly breaking into a fawning smile.

Then he scrambled over to Jiang Feng, bowing deeply, his demeanor a hundred times more respectful than when he had just faced Jiangnan Wang.

"Ji... Mr. Jiang Feng! I, a petty person, am blind!"

Duanmu Jun said, his voice trembling.

"We... we warmly welcome Mr. Jiang Feng's visit to the Duanmu family!"

He said this while quickly calculating in his mind.

Now the only one who could possibly save the Duanmu family is perhaps Duanmu Ya!

Thinking this, Duanmu Jun hastily turned around and angrily ordered the person behind him, Duanmu Tong.

"Old Three! Why are you just standing there? Mr. Jiang has arrived—hurry up and fetch Elder Ya!"
