811: Chapter 800: Subduing Teng Feiyue 811: Chapter 800: Subduing Teng Feiyue “Let me spare the Yunteng Family?
You must be joking.
Why would I ever spare them?”
Ning Fan looked at Teng Feiyue with amusement, his face smeared with blood yet wearing a smile, appearing somewhat grotesque.
To Ning Fan, this Teng Feiyue was indeed laughable.
He had such a deep grudge against the Yunteng Family; how could he possibly let them go?
Perhaps some innocent bystanders might catch his eye and he could leave them with their lives, but as for Teng Zhuhai—he was absolutely not going to survive.
At this moment, Teng Zhuhai, because his daughter was kneeling at Ning Fan’s feet, looked furious and shocked.
To him, this scene could only be described as humiliating.
The Yunteng Family held such a prestigious status, one of the Four Great Families of Zang City.
They were always the ones others begged for favor, so when had the Yunteng Family ever knelt at someone’s feet?
Now, Teng Feiyue knelt before Ning Fan, pleading for him to spare the Yunteng Family.
It only left Teng Zhuhai feeling an overwhelming sense of sorrow.
How had their Yunteng Family fallen to such a state?
“Please spare my father; take my life instead.
Use my life to exchange for my father’s.
As for my brother, I beg you to spare him too.
In the next life, I, Teng Feiyue, am willing to be your slave!”
Teng Feiyue pleaded desperately to Ning Fan, her expression filled with tragic determination.
Tears streamed steadily from her reddened eyes, and her voice carried a sobbing undertone.
Ning Fan narrowed his eyes and let out a cold laugh.
“Sorry, but you’re dreaming.
You want to trade one life for so many?
Seems like this deal is quite unfair, doesn’t it?”
“Feiyue, you don’t need to beg him!
Today, we of the Yunteng Family stand united—let us all die together, but we will never bow to him!”
Teng Bei shouted passionately at Teng Feiyue, but just as he finished speaking, a Silver Needle pierced his neck, silencing him instantly.
After being struck by Ning Fan’s Silver Needle, Teng Bei could do nothing but stare, unable to move or speak, as he watched Teng Feiyue kneel at Ning Fan’s feet.
Teng Zhuhai, similarly overwhelmed with rage, thought only of dragging Ning Fan down with him.
Ignoring Teng Feiyue entirely, he charged forward recklessly.
Seeing Teng Zhuhai rush at him, Ning Fan showed no signs of mercy.
His Soft Sword acted like a whip, instantly tearing Teng Zhuhai’s chest into a mangled mess of flesh and blood.
“Ahhhhhhhh!”
With a guttural scream, Teng Zhuhai collapsed to the ground, the sight utterly unbearable.
Teng Feiyue immediately clung to Ning Fan’s leg in terror, afraid he might truly kill Teng Zhuhai.
She begged continuously, “Ning Fan, please, I beg you!
Spare my father’s life!
I’ll do anything you want—whatever it takes!”
“Heh, what status do you have to negotiate with me?”
Though a woman’s tears might often be a fatal weapon against men, circumstances mattered.
Teng Feiyue’s tears, in this moment, were utterly meaningless to Ning Fan, who only wished to teach this naive woman the bitter truth of reality.
Hearing Ning Fan’s cold, ruthless words, Teng Feiyue froze, staring blankly.
She lifted her head, her eyes filled with the reflection of Ning Fan’s icy and indifferent expression, causing her to bite her lips hard in distress.
What should she do now?
Was she really going to stand by and watch as Ning Fan slaughtered her father, along with every other member of the Yunteng Family?
Her mind was a chaotic mess, her face ghostly pale, and her heart filled with despair.
If she truly had to witness the deaths of her father and relatives at Ning Fan’s hands, it would be better for her to die ahead of them.
Seeing Teng Feiyue rendered speechless, Ning Fan scoffed and twitched his lips.
His Soft Sword, hungering once more for blood, gleamed with a chilling light.
As for the surrounding members of the Yunteng Family, none dared approach.
Ning Fan’s terror had already seeped deep into their bones.
Now, in his presence, they felt only paralyzing fear, unable even to remain steady on their feet should he draw closer.
Noticing Ning Fan’s motion, Teng Feiyue panicked once more.
Her mind raced wildly until a thought seemed to strike her, her expression growing resolute.
Clenching her teeth, she suddenly slammed her forehead to the ground.
“I, Teng Feiyue, pledge the loyalty of the Yunteng Family to Ning Fan!!!!”
Suddenly, Teng Feiyue uttered words that no one could believe.
Teng Zhuhai widened his eyes in horror at Teng Feiyue, unable to hold back a mouthful of fresh blood spilling out.
The Yunteng Family pledging allegiance to Ning Fan—how could Teng Feiyue say something so outrageous and treasonous!
If Teng Zhuhai were still capable of movement, he would undoubtedly try to stop Teng Feiyue immediately.
Even if such a humiliating compromise could save their family, how could he ever face the ancestors of the Yunteng Family again?
The other members of the Yunteng Family also fell into madness upon hearing Teng Feiyue’s words.
In their hearts, they wanted to condemn her, but Ning Fan’s presence kept their lips sealed.
“Just you?
You’re merely Teng Zhuhai’s daughter, not the head of the Yunteng Family!”
Ning Fan raised his brows skeptically.
Even if Teng Feiyue were bold enough to usurp Teng Zhuhai’s position as Family Head, could she command the loyalty of the Yunteng Family?
Would these people truly obey her?
Would they genuinely follow her orders?
Ning Fan harbored countless doubts.
It wasn’t that he didn’t believe Teng Feiyue’s pledge but rather that he couldn’t see the Yunteng Family uniting under her banner willingly!
Yet, when faced with Ning Fan’s skepticism, Teng Feiyue displayed sheer determination and declared firmly, “Yes!”
Teng Feiyue’s steadfast gaze locked onto Ning Fan.
Sweeping her eyes around the room, she spoke in a low voice: “You disabled my father.
My brother is your prisoner.
The Yunteng Family can only obey me.
They must follow my lead, because their lives—every single one—are in my hands!”
Upon hearing Teng Feiyue’s words, the fastest to react wasn’t Ning Fan but the members of the Yunteng Family.
Suddenly, they seemed to recall something: the head of the Family possessed the means to control the Gu Insects inside their bodies.
Otherwise, the position of Family Head wouldn’t have been monopolized by their direct lineage all this time.
If Teng Feiyue truly possessed such ruthless resolve, she might actually have a chance at seizing control of the Yunteng Family.
“You really are heartless…”
Ning Fan said casually, narrowing his eyes as he began pondering.
He appeared genuinely hesitant this time.
Teng Feiyue’s face reflected bitter despair.
If the Yunteng Family hadn’t been reduced to this dire state, if her father could stand against Ning Fan, or if she hadn’t feared for Teng Huayang’s life, she certainly wouldn’t have made such a choice.
Noting Ning Fan’s hesitation, Teng Feiyue grew increasingly anxious.
Hastily, she added, “If you spare the Yunteng Family, we shall serve you unconditionally, loyal only to you for all eternity!”
