“Little Schott, what’s wrong with your eyes? Did someone hit you?!” Xia Fei asked suspiciously.
Today was Xia Fei’s first day in the Aurora Clan’s logistics department. He had originally come to just go through the motions, but he saw Little Schott on a reclining chair next to the door, his head tilted in pain.
Little Schott jumped to his feet the moment he saw Xia Fei, appearing very agitated. According to seniority, Xia Fei was practically Little Schott’s ancestor. Moreover, Xia Fei and Little Schott shared a few unspeakable secrets, so he was one of the few people Xia Fei was close to in the clan.
Little Schott both admired and was scared of this unusual senior of his. He admired Xia Fei because of his superb method and his ability to resolve that major crisis that had endangered the clan. He was scared of Xia Fei because his problem-solving methods were more bloody, and he killed at the slightest
disagreement. His way of survival differed greatly from the rest of the Aurora Clan.
“Ouch!”
Jumping up irritated Little Schott’s wound, and he covered his eye with his hand and moaned.
Xia Fei smiled as he helped Little Schott sit up. He took out a light blue bottle of medicine from his spatial ring, letting the other drink half of it and applying the remaining half to the wound on his eyes.
“It stopped hurting! Ancestor Xia Fei, what medicine is this?” Little Schott asked.
“Oh, it’s just some wound medicine I made for myself. There’s no harm in carrying around these things when going out. I’ll give you a few bottles later so that you can use them when you need,” Xia Fei said nonchalantly.
Little Schott’s eyes widened as he said in shock, “Ancestor, you know how to mix medicines?! Even the apothecaries of the clan can’t make medicine this strong! You’re really incredible!”
Xia Fei took the comment in stride. The medicine naturally had a good effect, but it was the method of healing through eating that Fuchen had taught him that was truly incredible. Just by eating and drinking, one’s wounds and pain would disappear. Such a method could not be found just anywhere.
“Alright, tell me what happened to your eye.” Xia Fei sat himself across from Little Schott and lit a cigarette.
Little Schott stammered, “This m-morning, I was passing by Sun Dajin’s house and remembered that his clan owes some money to our logistics department, so I went in to collect the debt, but the result…”
Xia Fei was startled. It seemed like Little Schott was saying that he had gone in to collect a debt and had ended up being beaten up?! This was strange. It was said that Garde 83 was led by the three major clans, yet even though the Aurora Wist Clan was one of the three major clans, someone dared to beat
up its people?
Without another word, Xia Fei stood up, pulled Little Schott out of his chair, and said, “Follow me!”
“Where are we going?” Little Schott asked curiously.
“Where? To seck justice! For one week, you’re not allowed to see your girlfriend! This is your punishment!”
Little Schott tearfully said, “Ancestor, this isn’t fair. It’s not like I hit anyone, so why am I being punished?”
Xia Fei sighed. The common practice of the Aurora Clan was truly unacceptable. It seemed that the clan had a rule that being beaten was fine, but hitting others was to be punished! This was why Little Schott immediately became unhappy when Xia Fei punished him.
Xia Fei said with a cold face, “You went to collect a debt and ended up being beaten, and you’ve got the face to ask me why you’re being punished? You listen to me: As long as I’m here, we only beat other people up!”
Xia Fei’s words were naturally very rousing, Little Schott had felt suffocated in this clan for far too long, and he had been waiting for someone to back him up. However, when he remembered the clan’s rules to treat people with kindness, he became a little afraid. Trembling, he followed Xia Fei out.
As they turned a corner, they ran into several other youths from the clan. They were all around the same age as Little Schott, and they had been assigned to the logistics department for training.
It was still early, and these youths had come to the logistics department to report.
“Oh? Little Schott, is this the newly returned ancestor of our clan, Xia Fei?” The youths quickly bowed, treating Xia Fei with utmost respect. It was easy to tell that they had had a good upbringing.
Xia Fei was rather young, but his seniority was greater, so it was not like it was unacceptable for him to be called their ancestor. Still, Xia Fei did like this form of address, as it made him seem older than he was.
“Mm, just call me Xia Fei, Don’t call me ancestor in the future, but you can call me uncle or brother. So where are all of you going?” Xia Fei nodded and asked.
“We’re naturally going to report to the logistics department.”
“You don’t have to go do that. Today, you’re coming with me to seize a home,” Xia Fei said coldly.
These youths, who did not dare to offend Xia Fei, followed him cautiously.
Word had already spread that Xia Fei was the disciple of a Spiritualist, and he was even the one who had dealt with the plot of the Laz Clan. These youths knew about all of this.
While Xia Fei had only just returned to the clan and had no specific job, everyone knew that if the Aurora Clan wanted to stage a comeback, it would have to rely on him, Let alone these youths, even Patriarch Wistful Heizus had to give Xia Fei some face. Thus, these youths did not dare to oppose anything
Xia Fei wanted to do. At most, they would just converse among themselves.
“Little Schott, what does he mean by seizing a home?”
“I don’t know. He probably means that we’re going to be guests at someone else’s home,” Little Schott shrugged and said.
“Oh, so we’re being guests? Isn’t it rude to visit someone so early in the morning?”
“That’s right. The rules of the clan say that we must prepare gifts when visiting, but it doesn’t seem like Brother Xia Fei has got any. We might as well pool our money together and buy a little something. Otherwise, people will call us rude.”
“That makes sense. I have fifty pearls. Do any of you have any spending money?”
“[have one hundred twenty pearls.”
‘These young men of the Aurora Clan were truly too polite. Xia Fei was going to raid a home, and these people were trying to put their money together to buy a gift!
Xia Fei stopped and glared angrily at these hopeless youths.
He was very frustrated, but he really had nowhere to vent his anger. Those eyes were so innocent and naive that it was clear that they had no idea what it meant to seize a home.
It was not long before the youths had collected around eight hundred pearls. Little Schott wrapped them up in a handkerchief and went up to Xia Fei. “If we’re going to visit someone, we need to prepare a gift. Buying would be best, though.”
“Buy my ass!” Xia Fei cursed at these youths, causing Little Schott and the others to shrink back in fear. In their eyes, it was very normal to visit someone with gifts. This was a rule of the clan, so they did not understand why Xia Fei was angry.
Radix said helplessly, “Don’t be angry at them. Putting aside the fact that they’re still teenagers, what do you think those old folks of the clan who have lived for eons would do? They would still be so polite wherever they went. This is just how the clan raises its people.”
“Those accursed rules!” Xia Fei was fuming. “What sort of people are they?! This is just too humiliating! Too humiliating! It’s not good. I have to think of a way to change this situation.”
lowering his head, Xia Fei looked at the innocent faces and simple and confused eyes of the youth, his heart wincing in pain.
It was a good thing such naive people had been born to a major clan. In society, they would have been bullied around until not even their bones remained.
Sighing, Xia Fei sternly said, “This moming, your brother, Little Schott, was beaten! How do you think this should be avenged?”
“We should tell the elders in the clan and have them go and ask if Little Schott did anything wrong or annoyed the other party. After which, Little Schott can be told how to correct himself,” a youth said seriously, and the others nodded.
*Smack!*
Right after he finished speaking, Xia Fei slapped him.
“Why don’t you go and die?! Your brother has been beaten, and you say that he should think about why he’s beaten?! Who in the world raised you?!” Xia Fei roared.
The youth was startled and bowed hastily. “You are correct, but these are the clan rules. In addition, if Little Schott didn’t do anything wrong, why would someone hit him?”
This was truly a group of silly youths. They were so young yet already lacked fighting spirit?! Xia Fei’s sorrow reached maximum saturation.
It seemed that explaining things to these youths was just too difficult. Xia Fei hardened his face and said, “Starting from now, you only need to remember two things. One, rules are the most useless thing in the universe. They exist only to be broken!
“Two, the greatest reason in the universe is to be unreasonable! No matter what time it is, everything we do is right! What’s right is right and what’s wrong is also right! If anyone punches your brother, you have to destroy their entire family!”
The youths were all gobsmacked. This was completely different from what the clan taught! The clan wanted these youths to be reasonable, follow the rules, and be kind to others, but Xia Fei wanted them to be unreasonable, killing everyone that offended them!
‘The youths found it very hard to understand, scratching their heads.
Xia Fei sighed mentally and muttered, “This is no good. The kids will be ruined if they keep being taught like this.”
Radix was rendered momentarily speechless, eventually commenting mentally, “Ruined? You’re the one who’s going to ruin them!”
Xia Fei spotted three figures dodging into a street corner and immediately recognized them.
“Get over here right now!” Xia Fei pointed at them and said.
Iron Tiger and his two cousins respectfully appeared before Xia Fei, cold sweat on their faces. Their wounds had been healed by now. After all, these were just external wounds, and in the Alpha Universe, healing a broken leg was not a big deal at all.
“Milord, we were just planning to leave…” Iron Tiger said nervously.
He knew that Xia Fei was a Spiritualist, and he also heard about Xia Fei returning to the Aurora Clan, so he was naturally very afraid of him.
Xia Fei smiled and asked casually, “Iron Tiger, you know what it means to seize a home, right?”
Iron Tiger was stunned and almost dropped to his knees, believing that Xia Fei would strike at his family. His legs trembled as he began to plead for mercy.
Xia Fei waved his hand impatiently and said, “Who’s going to seize your home? I have some business today, but these little guys don’t get it, so you three will accompany me.”
Iron Tiger was scared to death of Xia Fei and did not dare to disobey. He hastily agreed, saying that he would serve the other even if he had to splatter his brains across the ground.
Coldly looking at the youths, Xia Fei told Iron Tiger, “Your mission today is to show these kids what it means to seize a home! I’ll reward you if you do well, but if you do a bad job, hmph!”
