"The surname 'Dongfang', like the 'West Gate', 'Nangong', and 'Beitang', is given by the 'Sifang Pavilion'. It's not so much a surname as a title, a symbol. With this surname, you have the right to operate the 'Sifang Pavilion' in Dongzhou. In fact, in the final analysis, our four ancient clans are just servants of the 'Sifang Pavilion', and this identity can be given by them, and of course they can take it back!"

Dongfang Yiren explained softly to Feng Buyao.

"At the time of the 'Treasure Race', the four ancient clans not only had to offer treasures to the great treasurer, but also handed over some of the wealth they had earned over the past hundred years. Whichever one runs well and hands in more, then it will be rewarded by the cabinet and get better resources in the next hundred years. But if any of them hand in the least, or even the minimum amount, they will be deprived of their surname and completely lose their right to operate!"

"In order to avoid this from happening, the four ancient tribes had an agreement at that time to help each other. Every time the 'Four Corners Gather Treasures', before meeting the big treasurer, the four clans will meet in private. If one of them does not manage well and cannot produce enough wealth, then the other three will have to lend a helping hand and share their wealth with him to help him tide over the difficulties. ”

"In the past, because of the ravages of the 'Demon Tide of World Destruction', many times we'd 'Eastern Ancient Clans' almost couldn't muster enough tribute and faced the crisis of being deprived of our surnames. Fortunately, the other three clans have helped again and again according to the agreement, and we've barely survived until now. ”

Speaking of this, Dongfang Yiren couldn't help but sigh for a long time, and said with a wry smile to Feng Buyao: "Originally, there was no problem for us at all this 'Quartet Treasure Gathering', but the 'World Destroying Demon Tide' suddenly broke out, and we used most of our savings to fund the 'Heavenly Punishment Army', and there was not much ...... left."

"So a few days ago, as soon as I arrived in this 'city of heaven', I went to meet the other three patriarchs and asked for their help. The patriarch of Nangong agreed to help without hesitation, but the Ximen Heavenly Eagle and Beitang Guhong passed the buck again and again, and never gave a clear answer. Even because I am a woman and have a low rank, the Simon Aquila has repeatedly embarrassed me, and has no intention of helping at all. It's just that for the sake of face, it's not good to refuse directly, and I want to force me to retreat. But I endured them all for the sake of my own clan......"

She lowered her head, gently held Feng Buyao's hand, and whispered, "But today he wants to bully you, I can't bear it!"

As soon as these words came out, she blushed, and added: "I can't count on him anyway, so I just tear my face to be happy!"

Feng Buyao's heart was hot, and he couldn't help but clench her hand a little tighter, and said with a smile: "That's fine, I don't want you to be a 'servant' for them, and I don't want you to look at their faces! If they really want to take back the surname 'Dongfang', then give it to them! Big deal...... You and I have the surname 'Feng'!"

Dongfang Yiren was so amused by Feng Buyao that he "fluttered" and couldn't help but say: "I don't want it, Feng Yiren!? Besides, this is my own business, after all, there are so many clansmen behind me." And my father has just passed away, and this ancestral industry will be destroyed in my hands, and he is afraid that he will not be able to see it under the Nine Springs......"

Feng Buqian saw her sad face, so he comforted her in a low voice: "It doesn't matter! There are still a few days before the 'Saibao Conference', I will help you slowly figure out a way." With me here, you can rest assured. ”

Although I don't know what way Feng Buyu can solve the current problem, when he heard him say the words "I am here", Dongfang Yiren still felt a lot more relieved.

So all night without incident. On the second day, when Feng Buqian was sleeping with his head covered, he was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

"Miss! Miss! No...... Oh no!!" Bracelet's anxious voice followed.

Dongfang Yiren, who was dressing up in the mirror, couldn't help but be taken aback, then got up and opened the door, and at the same time opened his mouth reproachfully and said, "You girl is really getting bigger and smaller......

As soon as the door opened, the bracelet jumped into the house impatiently.

Seeing this girl's panicked face, Mei'er suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong!?

Bang'er replied incoherently, "That...... That...... No...... It was just someone who came to inform and said...... said that the big shopkeeper suddenly ordered to advance the date of the ...... 'Saibao Conference'!"

"What!?" Dongfang Yiren suddenly changed color, "When has it changed!?"

Bang'er hesitated slightly, and replied in a low voice: "Today...... Today!"

After a pause, she added, "Now...... Someone is already collecting tribute!"

"Ah!?" Dongfang Yiren exclaimed, and his face suddenly lost blood.

Feng Buqian was also frightened, and couldn't help jumping off the bed.

"Ah——!!!h

Feng Buqian was slightly stunned, then looked down, and suddenly his old face turned red.

It turned out that in a moment of excitement, he actually got out of bed naked......

With an embarrassed face, he quickly put on his clothes and pants and came to Dongfang Yiren's side, seeing that she was standing motionless, with a look of despair on her face, Feng Buyu hurriedly comforted: "Yiren, don't be in a hurry...... first"

Dongfang Yiren smiled miserably, and said in a suffrage voice: "What's the hurry...... It's over! After collecting the tribute, everything is a foregone conclusion...... Oh, suddenly the date is advanced!? God is going to make it difficult for us!"

Feng Buqian couldn't help but be stunned, then sighed lightly, and took Dongfang Yiren, whose body couldn't stop trembling, into his arms.

"I'll go with you to the 'great treasurer'...... Don't worry, I've got you covered!"

......

At the same time, the news that the "Saibao Conference" was held in advance has caused a sensation in the entire "World City"!

According to the usual, it should be after the end of the "World Martial Arts" that the "Saibao Conference" will be held. Such an unusual change was completely unexpected by everyone.

The people in the outer city began to talk about it, and the people in the inner city rushed to the center of the "Tianxia City" - "Wanbao Tower", waiting for the show to begin!

At this moment, in the outer city, in a corner near the gate of the inner city, there is a fat old man in a blue robe and a little girl in a red dress secretly hiding there.

The little girl stared eagerly at the heavily guarded inner city gate, and several times tried to raise her legs and rush there, but each time she was dragged back by the blue-robed old man.

"Sixth Grandpa!" the little girl exclaimed, pouting, "Don't stop me!

The old man in the blue robe was full of embarrassment, and said, "Meow'er, don't be impulsive! If you break through so hard, you will make a big mess! Besides, are you sure you really sensed it!?"

The little girl stomped her foot and said with great certainty, "It can't be wrong!"

"Godfather, he's in the inner city!!"
