Chapter 885: Chapter 885: How could Duan Feihan be the Young Master of the Dark Night Domain?

Liao Jinjin knelt down, and everyone present was stunned!

Xu Xingchen and Tong Qingyan were even more shocked as if they had seen a ghost. Just now, Liao Jinjin had been so formidable; when Tong Qingyan tried to slap her, she was rebounded and sent flying, her blood boiling.

She actually knelt down?

Xu Xingchen looked at the scene in disbelief. Liao Jinjin was the only daughter of Elder Liao, one of the five great elders of the Dark Night Domain. She was a much more prestigious figure than any noble lady of the Imperial Capital, and yet... she knelt?

What right does Duan Feihan have?

Relying on the wealth of the Duan Family?

No—

Even a fool like Xu Xingchen knew that the wealth of the Duan Family alone was not enough to scare someone as lofty as Liao Jinjin into kneeling, trembling like a leaf. Could it be...

Soon, Liao Jinjin gave everyone an explanation herself.

Her face was as pale as paper, her heart pounding like a drum; she wished she could faint immediately. Almost crying, she shouted, "Young Master, spare me, it’s my fault, I was out of my mind."

"Hiss—"

Old Lady He, He Nana, and even Zhou Ying, everyone present gasped in shock.

Y-Y-Young Master?

The Young Master of Dark Night?

During that Gathering of Immortals, the eight great families had indeed sent guards with cultivation bases, but the heads of these families hadn’t attended and knew nothing of this.

Duan is the Young Master of the Dark Night Domain? The name Dark Night Domain caused a stir, as all the wealthy families were aware of it.

Duan Feihan’s gaze was ice-cold, his eyes like sharp blades: "Liao Jinjin, you have repeatedly stolen spiritual medicines from the warehouse to give to outsiders. I have overlooked it. Now you go even further, stealing important organizational blueprints and developing them with outsiders."

Duan Feihan sneered, "Very well, very well."

With every word Duan Feihan uttered, Liao Jinjin’s face turned paler. She continually begged for mercy, "Young Master, spare me, Young Master, spare me."

Like a broken record.

Although the Dark Night Domain was not as cruel as the Demon Domain, where private punishments like severing limbs were commonplace...

But the Dark Night Domain was not a place to be trifled with either.

Just for secretly taking out the blueprints, the Young Master could directly implicate her father too, throwing both father and daughter out of the Dark Night Domain together!

It was over, completely over this time.

Xu Xingchen!!

Because of Xu Xingchen.

She did all this for Xu Xingchen. She stole spiritual medicines to help Xu Xingchen, stole blueprints to mine spiritual mines in the Seven Stars Dragon Vein Array to pave the way for Xu Xingchen’s cultivation, hoping to become his Dao companion.

In the end, he was two-timing her, and with a few words, he ruined her whole family!

Liao Jinjin’s tear-filled eyes were bloodshot, a mix of sorrow and anger as she screamed at Xu Xingchen, "You bastard, you scumbag!"

Xu Xingchen: "..."

Xu Xingchen still hadn’t recovered from the shock; he was completely stunned.

He... his nominal fourth uncle, Duan Feihan, was the Young Master of the Dark Night Domain?

The position of Young Master was so high that even Liao Jinjin’s father, Elder Liao, would have to be respectful.

And earlier... he thought he had found a great backer, believing he would start his path of cultivation and trample this fourth uncle who once looked down on him beneath his feet?

But in the end, it was all in vain?

Duan Feihan is the Young Master of the Dark Night Domain?!!

Xu Xingchen suddenly remembered that earlier he had revealed Liao Jinjin’s plan to take him to mine spiritual mines.

If Duan Feihan truly was the Young Master of the Dark Night Domain—

Xu Xingchen’s face went pale, realizing that his actions were like crashing headlong into Duan Feihan’s gun!
