Chapter 2226 - 2219: That’s a Separate Price

When Zhang Menglong uttered those words, the Moyan Family had one thought in their heads: "We’re doomed."

Seeing the woman’s reaction, could they still be unsure whether the woman truly was Zhang Menglong’s aunt? She violently broke through the Moyan Family’s spatial barrier, clearly to rescue Zhang Menglong.

And now, seeing Zhang Menglong in this pathetic state, wouldn’t she naturally explode?

Indeed, upon seeing Zhang Menglong’s tragic appearance, the chubby woman’s face almost twisted.

"Very well, very well! Our Zhang Family has always maintained a low-key lifestyle, never affecting the balance of the continent, nor stirring up trouble. Yet today, someone dared to bully our family. How wonderful!"

The chubby woman glared at the clan leader of the Moyan Family, her face filled with flesh. She could immediately identify him among everyone as the strongest and presumably the one with the most authority in the Moyan Family.

"Are you the clan leader of the Moyan Family?" With just a glance, the chubby woman made the Moyan Family’s clan leader struggle to breathe. He wasn’t inexperienced with Dominators, but none he’d encountered had ever exerted this kind of terrifying pressure.

This could only mean that the chubby woman’s power wasn’t something ordinary Dominators could compare to. She was stronger than any Dominator he’d ever seen!

"Misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding!" At this moment, Bai Si dared not maintain his posture as a clan leader. He immediately nodded and bowed to the woman, but she ignored him entirely, casting only a kind glance at Zhang Menglong.

"Good nephew, tell Aunt what happened. We Zhang Family never use our family’s influence to bully others, but we certainly won’t let anyone who disturbs our family off easily. If they were wrong, Aunt will definitely seek justice for you today!"

"Aunt, it’s a long story. This time I came to do a good deed but ended up being trapped here by them," Zhang Menglong explained in detail the situation he encountered.

Zhang Menglong did not exaggerate because he hadn’t come to the Moyan Family to cause trouble; they had been aggressors all along, not only wanting him to hand over their ancestor’s remains for free but also eyeing other treasures on him.

"Hehehe!" The chubby woman laughed, but her laughter was filled with intense killing intent, "Do you have anything to add to what my nephew described?"

The Moyan Family members didn’t dare say a word; they knew very well that Zhang Menglong spoke the truth, without much embellishment.

"No additions and no objections mean that what my nephew said is the truth, right?" The terrifying power emanating from the woman made everyone present feel suffocated, "In that case, if I wipe out your family, it shouldn’t be too much, right?"

"Slam!" The clan leader of the Moyan Family immediately knelt on the ground, "Ma’am, we were wrong, but there were indeed some misunderstandings."

"The remains of our family’s ancestors have been lost for a long time. Today, finding them is thanks to Mr. Zhang, but we weren’t sure if all items were brought back, so we used the lowest method to invite Mr. Zhang to our family, though the approach was inappropriate."

"Also, we have already said that once we confirm no issues, we are willing to personally apologize to Mr. Zhang," Bai Si said, "We have verified that the items on the ancestors are intact, and we are about to apologize to Mr. Zhang."

"Oh? In that case..."

The chubby woman shifted her gaze to Zhang Menglong, seemingly letting him make a decision.

In the Zhang Family, the chubby woman was considered a collateral bloodline, strong but generally without much say, as there were plenty of people with such strength in the Zhang Family.

The direct bloodline of the Zhang Family held the greatest power and authority.

Even though the chubby woman was of a much older generation compared to Zhang Menglong, when it came to decision-making, she still had to consult Zhang Menglong.

"Nephew, you decide," the chubby woman said, "Should we give them a chance to apologize or just wipe them out?"

According to the chubby woman’s style, she would likely wipe out the entire Moyan Family directly. In her view, Zhang Menglong being so kind to talk this much with them was already very lenient; did the Zhang Family need to explain much when doing something?

Even if hypothetically they were bullying others, who could do anything to them?

"Aunt, take a rest, I’ll handle this," Zhang Menglong only needed someone to back him up. Now with his aunt by his side, he could thoroughly reprimand the Moyan Family.

In normal situations, he would have actually leveled the Moyan Family, but considering Qianxu, Zhang Menglong was willing to give them a chance.

"Aunt, this is the food I brought from Earth, try it!" Zhang Menglong took out a heap of snacks and piled them on the ground.

Seeing this, the chubby woman’s eyes lit up; to her, the most tempting thing in the world was food, "Hahaha, my good nephew, you handle your issue; I’ll have a snack first."

Zhang Menglong slowly walked to the seat the clan leader had just been at and took a seat. The surrounding elders and other high-ranking members of the Moyan Family immediately got up and made space for him.

"Have you confirmed everything?" Zhang Menglong asked, sounding authoritative.

"Yes, yes, everything’s checked out, no issues at all. This is where we Moyan Family unfairly judged Mr. Zhang’s character. Now, on behalf of our family, I offer all our gratitude, respect, and apologies."

"Hmm? Just verbal?" Zhang Menglong raised an eyebrow.

"Of course not!" Bai Si glanced secretly at the chubby woman to see her threatening gaze fixed upon him.

Clearly, they could have just taken what they wanted, so why use this method to make them voluntarily hand things over?

"People!" Bai Si ordered them to pack the items recently taken from the warehouse into a spatial storage device and presented it to Zhang Menglong, "This represents a third of our family’s wealth; we hope Mr. Zhang won’t be dissatisfied."

"Young Bai, these items make it hard for me to accept your gratitude, respect, and apology," Zhang Menglong shook his head, "When Qianxu asked me to bring these remains, he promised me half of your family’s wealth to exchange. This is lacking quite a bit."

"This..." Bai Si secretly cursed Qianxu; this wastrel only knew how to make promises that would cost him!

"People, fetch more treasures!"

With aching heart, Bai Si managed to gather half the family’s wealth to give to Zhang Menglong.

"Alright, I’ve accepted the gratitude," Zhang Menglong said, "Now let’s discuss the apology and respect."

"Ah?" Bai Si thought that once he’d sacrificed wealth, Zhang Menglong would be satisfied, but this was just the beginning.

"Is there a problem?" Zhang Menglong said, "This half of the wealth represents your family’s promise from Qianxu. It only stands for your gratitude. The offense against me does not fall in this range. The apology and respect demand separate compensation."
