front of him, reaching out to grab his neck.Henry was once a special forces captain in the Sea Dog Assault Team, incredibly skilled. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the head bodyguard of the DuPont...Gu Chengfang paced back and forth with his hands clasped behind his back, a look of anxiety on his face. After several laps, he finally made up his mind.
"Agree to his terms, go raise the money right away, and give him 200,000 high-grade spirit stones."
"This..."
Although he longed to immediately solve the trouble before him, Guan Qirui was still taken aback.
After all, that's 200,000 top-grade spirit stones, definitely not a small sum.
"Father, are you really determined to give that man so much money"
"What if we refuse Are we just going to stand by and watch our house crumble"
Guan Chengfang angrily said, "That female demon king is at least in the middle stage of the Dongxu Realm. With our Guan family's ability, we can't possibly subdue her."
We've only just begun, and everything is still within our grasp. Once the news gets out, the steward in the imperial city will be utterly disgraced.
This is secondary at best. What if that female demon lord goes mad and dispatches the Great Elder and the others Then, without any masters to protect us, imagine what would happen to us
"Over these years, you've caused so much trouble. We've made countless enemies as caretakers. Once we lose our military protection, we'll be torn apart by them. Then it will be a crisis of annihilation for our entire clan."
“This…”
Before this, Guan Qi had never thought so deeply. Hearing his father speak now, he realized the severity of the situation.
Guan Chengfang said with a sinister expression: "As long as our family's strength is still there, we can make back the spirit stones spent in the future."
"And the spirit stones from our family aren't so easy to get either. As long as we weather this crisis, old man will make that boy pay, he'll have to cough up everything he took."
"Can this work"
Guan Qi said, “Didn’t you say that the female demon king was at least in the middle stage of the Void Realm We have no ability to deal with her, do we”
"If force doesn't work, then use your brain more."
Gu Chengfang waved his hand. "Alright, time is of the essence, gather those spirit stones as quickly as possible and then send them to that kid."
Then the steward dispersed his network of contacts, raising spirit stones everywhere he could.
As a powerful family, their strength was evident. Other families, having received no word, didn't think much of it and readily agreed to the loan.
They quickly raised 200,000 high-grade spirit stones and set off for the Ancient Medicine Gate clinic together.
As he arrived at the door, the gloom on Guan Chengfang's face vanished quickly, replaced by a kind smile. He then stepped inside.
"Doctor Ye, my name is Cheng Fang, the head of the household. I am so sorry that my son has caused you trouble."
This old geezer is a cunning fox. Though he'd love to tear the other person apart right now, his face is lit up with a dazzling smile, as if he's met an old friend after years apart.
Ye Bufan was well-traveled and naturally wouldn't be fooled by his performance. He said calmly, "Is there something you need"
"This is it, I've already gathered 200,000 top-grade spirit stones as promised, and I've sent them over to you."
After saying that, he held a storage ring in his palm and offered it to her.
Ye Bufan weighed it in his hand, and with a sweep of his consciousness, he found that there were 200,000 high-grade spirit stones inside, not one less.
Zhang Xiaoyu next to him was dumbfounded, that was a full 200,000 high-grade spirit stones!
Even a big family like the Zhangs wouldn't be able to come up with that much money all at once, yet they just casually handed it over.
Ye Bufan was delighted. He hadn't expected to receive such a generous gift on the first day of his shop opening. With so many spirit stones, he should have a chance to further improve his cultivation.
He casually pocketed the ring: “Well then, since your steward is so sincere, this matter can be considered settled. I won’t hold it against you anymore.”
"Excellent, old man thanks Doctor Ye for your magnanimity."
Guan Chengfang had sent out so many spirit stones, his heart ached, but he still wore a radiant smile on his face.
"Doctor Ye, when will you bring your younger sister back"
When he finished speaking, Guan Qirui also nervously looked over.
Seeing that the hour Xiaoqing had set was about to expire, once the problem wasn't resolved, that female demon might go berserk and do something unpredictable, maybe even tear apart the steward.
"Let's go, right now!"
After much toil, it was now the hour of entering night. Ye Bufan, accompanied by Zhang Xiaoyu and the steward and his son, arrived at the Steward's manor.
As soon as they stepped through the entrance, a deafening crash echoed from the inner courtyard. A three-story wooden building collapsed with a thunderous roar.
"Oh no, the Demon Queen has started demolishing buildings."
The butler and his son cried out, and hurried after him.
Upon arriving, Xiaqing was indeed just dismantling a wooden structure, now roaring with anger.
"Where is my horse Bring me my horse quickly, or I'll tear this place down!"
In the face of her authority, the servants around her trembled with fear, not one daring to utter a sound.
"You're not coming back, are you Then I'll tear this whole place down!"
The little girl was incredibly furious, raising her tiny fists as if to strike.
Just then, a soft voice rang out: "Alright, Xiaoqing, let it go."
"Brother Ye, you're here!"
Xiaoqing immediately saw Ye Bufan walking over, the anger on her face instantly vanished, and she happily ran towards him.
Seeing this, both Guan Chengfang and Guan Qirui let out long sighs of relief. They were glad to have returned in time, otherwise the entire Guan family estate might have become a ruin.
"Brother Ye, look quickly, how does my Tetris tower look"
Xiaoqing, like a child showing off their beloved toy, held onto Ye Bufan's hand and pointed to the wall of people beside them.
Ye Bufan glanced at the family members below the human wall. Their faces were pale with fear, and they looked like they were about to faint from being crushed.
Zhang Xiaoyu also came over to take a look. When he saw the people at the top, he was immediately stunned.
They were undoubtedly the three elders of the butler, all stacked there like puppets at this moment.
"Not bad, the pile is good!"
Ye Bufan patted Xiaoqing's head lightly and gave her a word of praise.
"Still Ye Gege has a discerning eye!"
Xiaoqing was filled with excitement. In her mind, everyone else didn't understand Tetris, only her big brother did.
"Alright, we've had enough fun for one day. Let's head back."
"Aren't you leaving too soon I haven't had enough fun yet."
Xiaoqing pouted but didn't resist, holding Ye Bufan's hand and walking out together.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the manor marveled in secret. Who was this young man To be able to subdue this female demon!
But anyway, people finally left, they're saved.
Especially on the wall of people, those who were stacked one on top of another, each shed tears of excitement.
If it weren't for this young man, their suffering would have gone on forever.
The steward and his son carefully followed behind them, escorting them all the way to the door.
As he reached the door, Ye Bufan suddenly stopped and patted Guan Qirui's shoulder. "This time I'll let it slide, but in the future, try to be a decent person!"
"I... I... I understand!"
Guan Qicheng was furious, but he didn't dare to show it.
"Master Butler, goodbye. I hope I will never have to come back as your butler again."
After that, he glanced meaningfully at Guan Chengfang, then strode away with Xiaoqing and Zhang Xiaoyu.
Seeing them leave completely, the butler and his son finally let out a sigh of relief. With the Demon Queen gone, they were safe.
A trace of malice flashed in Guan Chengfang's eyes: "Boy, we will remember this grudge!"nbao was the undisputed king of Tianfeng City. Even when facing royalty and nobility, he would only nod in acknowledgement, never bowing to anyone.But facing this young man, the head steward acted out...
