Feng Tianyi stood before a deep mountain, his face showing a helpless expression, "Other families are striving to engage with the world, but only our Feng Family prides itself on not only staying out of the world but becoming even more secluded. I have no idea what the old man is thinking!"

As he spoke, he took out his phone to look at it, but there was no signal at all, "Great, now the phone can only be used as a watch. I better hurry home and inform the elders of the clan, and then I can return to Yanjing where I can live freely!"

As his words fell, Feng Tianyi's figure disappeared from the spot, continuously weaving through the jungle.

In the past, the Feng Family ranked as a top family within the Ancient Martial Arts Families, but as the family kept to themselves, they had now fallen to the level of a second-tier family. That's something Feng Tianyi couldn't understand—how the Tang Family had even exploited their strengths to open several biological research and machinery manufacturing factories.

After running through the jungle for about two hours and crossing several large mountains, he finally saw the Feng Family's hidden buildings nestled in the mountainside.

"Coming home is exhausting!" Feng Tianyi complained.

As he approached the front door, several figures appeared in front of Feng Tianyi.

"Tian Yi, you're back!"

"Tian Yi, is the outside world amazing? Did you bring back any of those cool little movies this time?"

"Tian Yi, where's the gaming console you promised you would buy for me? Did you bring it back?"

The group that appeared were all young members of the Feng Family. Feng Tianyi chuckled, "Stop fussing, I'm back for serious business today, I need to get home quickly!"

A sneaky-looking young lad whispered, "Tian Yi, you might want to consider running away quickly. When you ran away last time, the Family Head was so angry they said they'd break your legs if they saw you again!"

A chill ran through Feng Tianyi's heart—it seemed his previous departure had really infuriated the old man!

"Heh, do you think your brother Tian Yi is easily frightened? What haven't I encountered before? It's a joke to think a few words from the old man can threaten me. You're still young, too naive!" Feng Tianyi said with a proud laugh.

"Really? I never knew you had such spine before. Who was it crying and clinging to my legs last time begging to never dare again?" Right then, a steady voice came through.

Suddenly, those youths who had been surrounding Feng Tianyi vanished in an instant.

With a grimace, Feng Tianyi forced a smile, "Dad, what are you doing here?"

Behind Feng Tianyi stood a middle-aged man, looking at him with a teasing gaze, "I've been here for a while now, just watching you show off. Keep going, don't stop!"

Feng Tianyi quickly ran over, speaking sheepishly, "Dad, you know I was just speaking out of turn for fun, you wouldn't hold such a small matter against me, right?"

"Hmph, as if I don't know what you are capable of, causing trouble every three days. You can forget thinking I won't hold you accountable. Starting today, you are to stay at home honestly, and you're not allowed to go anywhere, understand?" the middle-aged man coldly snorted, "Running around all the time, look at what you've turned into now!"

Feng Tianyi wailed, "No, my dear dad, how could you bear to let your son live his whole life in such a godforsaken place?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, a drop of bird poop fell from the sky, landing right on Feng Tianyi's forehead.

The middle-aged man said indifferently, "See, the bird did poop, didn't it? Just stay put like a good boy!"

Saying this, he reached out to grab Feng Tianyi.

Feng Tianyi made a quick step and amazingly slipped away from the middle-aged man's grasp.

"Huh? Haven't seen you in a few months, and your movement technique has actually improved a bit, not bad. Looks like you haven't just been chasing girls and drinking out there," the middle-aged man nodded.

Feng Tianyi said proudly, "Of course, didn't you see who I am? I'm the greatest genius of the Feng Family..."

While he was speaking, the middle-aged man's figure vanished again, and the next minute he was already holding Feng Tianyi by the back of his collar, "With your mediocre skills, thinking of escaping my control is like daydreaming. Just obediently come back with me!"

"Dad, I've come home this time because I have some very important news to tell you!" Feng Tianyi struggled a few times, but finding no hope of escape, he quickly said, "Otherwise, do you think I would risk being put under house arrest to come back?"

"Very important news?" The middle-aged man said indifferently, "Let me lock you up for ten days to half a month first, and I believe you'll obediently spit it all out!"

Feng Tianyi became angry, "Are you even my real dad, how can you treat me like this!"

"If I weren't your real dad, I would have broken your legs a long time ago!" the middle-aged man said coldly, "You, this useless brat, not only did you fail to complete the trials back then, but you also ran off to enjoy your life in the city. Do you realize that your peers have kids who can climb trees now!"

Feng Tianyi hung his head and sulked, "But I didn't want to get married so early back then. Besides, who made it a rule that we Feng Family boys have to bring a girl we like home and get married before twenty? That clearly violates human rights!"

"Now you're even defying the heavens!" The middle-aged man grabbed Feng Tianyi by the ear, "This is an ancestral rule handed down in our Feng Family. As a descendant, you must abide by it! There's no questioning it. If you want human rights, blame yourself for running too fast back then. Had you run slower, you wouldn't even have these issues, right?"

Feng Tianyi gave a sheepish smile, "I still think it's better to run fast."

"Then just shut up!" the middle-aged man said coldly.

The Feng Family is known as the Fragrance Stealing Clan, but is also recognized in the Ancient Martial World as the most chaste family!

Because Feng Family men can roam the world freely before they turn twenty, but at age twenty they must find a woman willing to be with them for life, bring her back to the Feng Family, and from then on avoid any romantic entanglements, being completely devoted to their wives!

Back then, Feng Tianyi went wild and really didn't want to get married so early, so he got rid of his physical form like a cicada shedding its skin and fled from the Feng Family, which greatly infuriated his father, the Head of the Feng Family!

During this period, Feng Tianyi returned home a few times, and each time his dad locked him up. But Feng Tianyi was tenacious, always finding a way to escape each time he was confined. After a while, the people of the Feng Family stopped caring about this wayward lad!

After all, Feng Tianyi hadn't brought any real harm to the Feng Family, but his escapades caused his father to lose face, especially when he saw the children of people Feng Tianyi's age already able to climb trees, it really didn't sit well with him.

The Feng Family Head swaggered back to the Feng Family's main hall, holding Feng Tianyi, who faced an embarrassing scene as the people around the Feng Family couldn't help but laugh.

"Spit it out, what trouble did you get into outside this time!" the Feng Family Head said indifferently, "If you hadn't stirred up some trouble, you wouldn't have come home at this time, right?"
