The conflict between the brothers from different wives and concubines must be resolved today.
Guo Feilong narrowed his eyes slightly, forming a plan in his mind. He turned to Sun Yufeng beside him and said, "Go ring the copper bell three times and gather everyone."
This matter must be dealt with severely, all hidden dangers must be eliminated, and all the maternal families of those wives and concubines must witness his iron-fisted methods.
Sun Yufeng left to carry out the order.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The meeting bell outside the grand hall rang three times.
The bell was a spiritual instrument, its sound could travel five hundred miles.
The Guo family's Heavenly Abode wasn't even five hundred miles wide.
Whether ordinary people or cultivators, as long as they were within the Guo family's Heavenly Abode, they could hear the bell.
The three rings of the bell were a mandatory summons for all immortal cultivators with spiritual roots.
After the bell rang, some people rode on white clouds, some on land spiritual beasts, and others on flying spiritual beasts, all heading towards the Guo family palace from various parts of the Heavenly Abode.
In less than half an hour, all of Guo Feilong's wives and concubines, all his children, even infants, were brought to the Guo family square by their mothers or older siblings.
All the maternal family members of his wives and concubines who had cultivation levels also gathered at the Guo family square.
At this moment, nearly three thousand people were present at the Guo family square.
Among them, two thousand were Guo Feilong's wives, concubines, and children, the rest were the maternal family members of his wives and concubines.
Guo Feilong stood on the high platform in the square like an emperor, exuding authority.
Below the high platform was another platform half a meter lower, where his brother-in-law and brother-in-law stood.
Everyone could see them.
"A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. Today, I've gathered you all here to tell you that in the Guo family's Heavenly Abode, no matter if you're my father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, you must abide by the laws and rules."
Guo Feilong's voice carried authority without anger, reaching everyone's ears, "Anyone who doesn't follow the laws and rules will be punished. I've already told you what punishments will be meted out for breaking various rules.
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
Today, someone has broken the rules, and these two people are not outsiders."
Guo Feilong pointed to the person with a severed arm below and said, "Some of you know him, some don't. Let me introduce him to you. He is the younger brother of my wife Jiang Xuewei, my brother-in-law. His arm was severed today."
Guo Feilong then pointed to another person standing on the platform, "This is the elder brother of my wife Li Ying, my brother-in-law. He used a flying sword to sever and destroy his arm."
"None of you here are outsiders; you are all my family. Today, I will handle the matter between the two of them according to the laws and rules."
"Now, let them explain what caused the conflict and why a flying sword was used."
After Guo Feilong finished speaking, his brother-in-law and brother-in-law recounted the events in detail, along with those present who supplemented what they saw and heard.
After they finished recounting the events, Guo Feilong looked expressionlessly at his brother-in-law, Li Ying's elder brother.
"According to the rules, the one who provokes and causes serious consequences must lose a hand or a foot. You choose one."
"Brother-in-law, I..." Li Ying's brother turned pale, now realizing the fear and wanting to plead.
But Guo Feilong's face was cold, showing no room for pleading. He immediately looked at his sister and nephews and nieces.
"You all keep quiet, no one is allowed to plead," Guo Feilong said to his wife Li Ying and several children with a stern face, "If anyone pleads or cries, I'll cut off both his legs or feet."
"I'll give you ten breaths to make a choice. If you don't choose, I'll choose for you," Guo Feilong said coldly to his brother-in-law.
His brother-in-law, with only the fourth level of Qi Refining cultivation, had reached this level only a few years ago after receiving cultivation resources from his sister becoming Guo Feilong's wife.
Under the aura of Guo Feilong, a mid-Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, his brother-in-law's legs trembled, and he stammered, "I... I... I choose the left hand."
Without hesitation, Guo Feilong swung his flying sword, and a flash of sword light passed.
His brother-in-law let out a scream, and his left arm fell to the ground.
"You severed and destroyed someone else's arm, showing malicious intent. An eye for an eye, you don't need this arm either."
After saying this coldly, Guo Feilong waved his hand, sending out a mystic power light to destroy his brother-in-law's severed arm on the ground.
Everyone present didn't dare to breathe at this moment.
It was the first time they had seen Guo Feilong's ruthless side, and their hearts were shaken.
Usually, Guo Feilong had a smiling demeanor, and everyone thought he was easygoing and kind.
Now, that perception melted away like snow under the warm sun.
After dealing with his brother-in-law, Guo Feilong looked at his brother-in-law, who was smug after getting his revenge.
He still expressionlessly said, "Although you were the one provoked, you ignored the rules and took the initiative to use a weapon to attack.
Think about the consequences. You are at the third level of Qi Refining, and he is at the fourth level.
Using a weapon first, weren't you just asking for trouble?
This is in the Guo family's Heavenly Abode. If it were outside, you would have been killed, not just lost an arm.
You two, one is malicious and cunning, the other impulsive and brainless.
Now look, both of you have lost an arm, and you've caused hatred between your sisters and brothers-in-law, and your nephews and nieces.
They are all my wives, concubines, and children. If they turn against each other because of you two, brothers and sisters fighting among themselves...
Honestly, I almost want to kill you both right here on this platform.
But you two are ultimately my wives' brother and brother-in-law, and my children's uncles. I can't bear to make them lose family and feel sad.
As the saying goes, it's better to resolve enmity than to keep it. I remember you both have a daughter and a son of marriageable age who are not yet engaged or married.
To resolve your hatred and prevent my children from turning against each other because of you two in the future...
Your daughters will marry each other's sons.
From now on, you will be in-laws. The children born will either be your grandsons or granddaughters, resolving your enmity. Are you willing?
If not, don't blame me for not recognizing family."
Murderous intent flickered in Guo Feilong's eyes. If these two didn't know what was good for them, he had plenty of ways to deal with them in the future.
Seeing Guo Feilong's undisguised murderous gaze, both were so frightened that cold sweat dripped from their foreheads. They quickly agreed, willing to marry their daughters to each other's sons.
Seeing their compliance, Guo Feilong smiled slightly, first congratulating them on becoming in-laws, then sternly addressing the maternal families of his wives and concubines.
In a cold and indifferent tone, he said, "You are all the maternal families of my different wives and concubines. I don't want any conflicts between you to affect the relationships between my wives and concubines, or the familial bonds of my children.
Here, I tell you for the last time.
If anyone deliberately causes trouble and breaks the rules I've set, don't blame me for not recognizing family. I'll kill who needs to be killed and punish who needs to be punished, with no room for personal feelings.
Alright, the matter is resolved. If you have nothing else, you can all leave."
