“Ah, this isn"t wasting.” However, Hong Dali didn"t look in the least worried, but just grinned and said, “These elixirs are quite tasty, they all went into our stomachs and didn"t throw away any of them! These elixirs are for people to eat in the first place. Since they have entered our stomachs now, how is it considered to be a waste?”

 Hua Xiangyu stared in bewilderment—why did these words sound so logical in her Big Brother Dali"s mouth?

 “You still dare to be stubborn and not reflect on your mistake!” A cold light flashed in the Big Elder"s eyes. He stared at Hong Dali and angrily said, “The elixirs here are to be provided to the outstanding members of the family, how dare you guys with a lowly ident.i.ty come here and eat them!?”

 Why were the Big Elder and the rest gloating but still feeling angry at the same time?

 That"s because the Hong Family spent lots of money to purchase them. Even if the members of the family wanted to eat these elixirs, they would need to reach a certain standard and only required the elixirs to boost their attributes to level up before they could send their request to the higher-ups.

 Even the Elders" children didn"t dare to come here without permission to take the elixirs. Yet, this Hong Dali actually directly came here and ate so much of them, did he think he was the small ancestor of the Hong Family and didn"t place any regards for the rest of them!?

 “Who are you referring to as lowly ident.i.ties?” Hearing that this Big Elder actually called his lackeys people with lowly ident.i.ties, Hong Dali was instantly angered and said, “These are my lackeys, they are not of lowly ident.i.ties. Why can"t we eat elixirs? I shall carry on eating them! Lackeys, just take whatever you want. If we can"t finish them, we can take away too!”

 What the heck! This kid is planning to revolt!

 Seeing that this matter was getting serious, Hua Xiangyu frantically pulled Hong Dali"s arm and signaled to him with her eyes. If he lowered his head a bit and spoke properly to them, maybe they could still turn this into a small matter. Then, once Great-grandmother came, she could handle this easily too. Yet, Hong Dali chose to go against the Big Elder at such a moment…

 “Good, very good!” Hearing Hong Dali"s words, Big Elder was instead not nervous anymore. He laughed and said, “I have recorded your words. Once Chief Hong and Old Madam come, I shall see how you are going to quibble then.”

 “What"s there to quibble about.” Hong Dali didn"t place any concern on this matter at all, he directly grabbed a mouthful of elixirs and threw one of them into his mouth. “I shall just carry on eating!” He not only did so himself, he even asked the others to eat too. “Everyone, continue to eat. There"s no need to care about him!”

 Seeing Hong Dali"s action, Tang Muxin and the rest all understood his thinking.

 It was really too common for a situation like seizing power to happen in a big family. Hong Dali had only just come here, it shouldn"t have concerned him. But the problem was that the Old Madam really adored him, which caused him to become a p.r.i.c.k who would threaten their positions in the eyes of the other members. If Hong Dali behaved humbly, they would think that he would be easy to bully and then constantly beat down on and bully him. Once this went on for a long period, Hong Dali wouldn"t be able to stay on in the family even if he wanted to.

 Therefore, he might as well just directly go up against them. So what if he was the Big Elder? Hong Dali didn"t care about him at all!

 Therefore, in front of the eyes of the Elders, Hong Dali and the rest carried on eating up to their heart"s content—previously when no one was watching them, they kept feeling that their meal was missing a bit of the atmosphere. But now, it felt really awesome!

 On the surface, the Big Elder pretended to be so angry that his beard was jumping, but he was actually feeling very delighted inside his heart.

 Why didn"t he ask the guards to capture Hong Dali directly? Because if he did so, the Old Madam"s heart would soften to Hong Dali"s side. After all, the Old Madam indeed adored Hong Dali a lot, even a fool could see this.

 This scenario now was the best. The more c.o.c.ky and arrogant Hong Dali was, the least reason the Old Madam had to protect him later. He shall see how Hong Dali was going to end up then!

 Therefore, just like this, after Hong Dali and the rest ate for another 20 plus minutes, the guard"s voice finally sounded—

 “The Chief and the Old Madam are here!”

 Hong Xingyu and Hua Yueling had arrived!

 Everyone instantly moved back and created a s.p.a.ce for this couple to walk inside. Once the couple arrived at the scene, the Big Elder was the first to rush up and greet them. Then, he decisively complained to them. “Chief Hong, Old Madam, this Hong Dali barged into the elixir room and even caused such a mess here, please punish him!”

 On Hong Xingyu and Hua Yueling"s way here, a lot of other members of the family had already heard of this and rushed here.

 This was the secret doing of the Elders too. The more people there were, the worse the stage that Hong Dali would end up! After all, with so many members of the family here, if they didn"t punish Hong Dali suitably, how were they supposed to make the others listen to them next time?

 Therefore, once the old couple arrived, a large group of younger members flooded in too. Upon seeing the situation in the room, all of them were stunned, then numerous discussions sounded—

 “This Hong Dali is too arrogant, he actually dared to do such a thing just because the Old Madam adores him! This is the elixir room, not his house"s garden. Look at the mess he created. I wonder how many elixirs he ate, he"s really detestable!”

 “That"s right, he"s creating such a scene so brazenly. If he isn"t punished accordingly this time, who knows how arrogant he will be next time?”

 “Isn"t that so, it"s okay for him to be a prodigal, our Hong Family doesn"t lack that little amount of money, anyway. But who can endure him being such a big scourge?”

 Listening to their discussions, Hong Xingyu slightly frowned too. This time, Hong Dali indeed created quite a big problem. This matter had attracted too much attention and he had indeed used up quite a lot of elixirs. If Hong Dali wasn"t punished suitably this time, it would be hard for others to be convinced of Hong Xingyu next time.

 If Hong Dali was punished heavily, the punishment would be to kick him out of the family. But how would Hong Xingyu bear to let his little darling go outside and endure hards.h.i.+ps and sufferings?

 But there were so many people watching now, the evidence and eye-witnesses were all present too, this matter was really hard to solve now.

 “Dali, why did you…” Hong Xingyu frowned, thinking about how to resolve this matter. Then, at this moment, Hua Xiangyu bravely stood out, pulled on Hong Xingyu"s hand and wheedled. “Great-grandfather, it"s my fault for not taking care of Big Brother Dali properly. Big Brother Dali said that he was angry, but I wasn"t able to think of a good place to eat at the moment. Coincidentally, we walked here, so I wanted to let Big Brother Dali eat something first to quench his thirst and hunger. Then, this resulted.” This little la.s.s" expression looked really pitiful now, her eyes red. “It"s all my fault. If you want to punish him, then punish me too. Can you go easy on him?”

 Hua Xiangyu wanted to bear some of the trouble for Hong Dali. After all, Hua Yueling doted on her too. It was just that Hong Dali alone might not be enough to settle this time"s problem, but with her involved too, there was a chance that they would not be too heavily punished.

 Hua Xiangyu did it out of good intention, but this caused the other younger members to all be filled with jealousy.

 This Hong Dali was just a prodigal, why were there so many people who treated him so well? Old Madam"s adoration of him was understandable because Hong Dali was the offspring of her favorite child, Hong Jun. But now, even Hua Xiangyu spoke out for him, why was this so!?

 Now, the eyes of the younger members as they looked at Hong Dali were almost on fire. They were very unhappy about this!

 “Yu"er, this matter…” Hong Xingyu thought for a while. This might be the only way that he could minimize the impact of this matter. After all, with Hua Xiangyu"s family background…

 Yet, just at this moment, Hua Yueling suddenly looked at Hua Xiangyu meticulously, then asked, “Yu"er, where did you get your helmet from?”

 Hearing Hua Yueling mentioning Hua Xiangyu"s helmet, everyone else looked towards her too. Then, they instantly sucked in a cold breath. They didn"t notice just now, but upon looking at her now, wasn"t the helmet she was wearing the Wings of Starry Sky helmet?

 That was worth at least 300 to 500 million, and the most crucial thing was that there were only three of them in the entire Shenglong Astral. Hua Xiangyu already had seven of the Wings of Starry Sky set previously, with the helmet now, didn"t that mean she had completed the set!?

 “Ah? This helmet?” Hua Xiangyu instantly smiled sweetly and said, “It"s from Big Brother Dali.”

 It"s actually from Hong Dali! That prodigal gave Hua Xiangyu such a top-grade helmet as a present when they have only just met? Where did he obtain it from!?

 “From Dali?” Hearing this, a plan instantly formed in Hua Yueling"s mind. She looked at Hong Dali and smilingly asked, “You have really caused quite a big trouble today, is there anything that you wish to say? How are you planning to compensate for this?”

 “Ah, it"s nothing much.” Hong Dali acted very nonchalantly and said, “Weren"t these elixirs bought with money too, all I need to do is just to pay for those that I took, isn"t it?” Hehe. I am rich, this isn"t a problem for me at all!

 No matter how valuable these elixirs are, they were bought with money in the first place. I have three billion dollars, it"s definitely enough to pay for the elixirs I used!

 “Yup, you can pay back with money.” Hua Yueling nodded in satisfaction. It looked like this little rascal came prepared, so she instantly instructed the guard. “Go and see how much money the elixirs they used are worth, then come back and tell me the figure.”

 The guard instantly started to tabulate the elixirs used. After taking down this, he started counting. “1,200 or so Icy Green Fruit elixir, each one costing 50,000 Shenglong Dollars. 800 or so Luck Stealing Fruit elixir, each one costing 70,000. 500 Purple Fire Lotus elixir, each one costing 80,000…”

 After a short while, he reported the final figure. “The total value of the elixirs that Young Master Dali used is approximately 17.3 billion.”

 Hearing this figure, the heads of the other young members of the family instantly went numb.

 This Hong Dali was really good at squandering. Just this time alone, he ate up elixirs worth as much as 17.3 billion or so in total!

 Even a deity also wouldn"t be able to compensate for such a sum of money! That"s 17.3 billion!

 Even the Elders felt pain in their hearts. Even if they managed to chase Hong Dali out of the family, the loss of 17.3 billion worth of elixirs wouldn"t be recovered!

 Yet, just as they thought that Hong Dali was going to be punished for sure this time, Hong Dali grinned and said, “I thought that it would be a lot, but it"s only this much. Lackeys, take some more of the elixirs and round the figure up to 20 billion!”

 Round… R-r-r-r-round up to 20 billion! What the heck, how much money does this Hong Dali actually have!

 “Okay!” Li Yang was the first to take action. He took and ate whatever valuable elixirs he could see, and the others soon followed as well. Working for the Young Master is indeed awesome, they even ate elixirs for a meal!
