Starforce Warriors

Chapter 245: Forced Out

How much was a third of the Du family's fortune? Billions? Tens of billions? The mere thought of such staggering numbers was dizzying. Such an immense fortune would ensure a lifetime of luxury and security. It could be used to hire powerful bodyguards, invest in industries, and build an empire. And yet, Miao Youwei had donated it all? Could it be true?

"Wretched woman, are you trying to deceive us?" Du Yuanyang shouted angrily. "You expect me to believe you’d donate such a massive fortune? No one in their right mind would do that. Don’t think you can fool us with a lie that’s this transp-"

His voice petered out as Miao Youwei serenely smiled and activated her portable light core, projecting a holographic screen into the air. A donation confirmation certificate appeared, suspended in mid-air.

The document bore the official seal of the City Leader's Office, along with the personal signature of City Leader Tan Zhenwei. The electronic contract was clear and had been authenticated by the light-network. It was undeniable proof.

The members of the Du family were left speechless.

It’s true! She actually donated such an enormous fortune. Is this woman out of her mind?

Even the legendary businesswoman Xiao Hongye, who was usually unflappable, looked shocked. When she looked at Miao Youwei again, there was a newfound respect in her gaze.

She could see now that this beautiful, delicate woman was, without a doubt, someone with extraordinary resolve and decisiveness. This move was nothing short of brilliant. She had cut the ground from under the Du family’s feet! Now, there was no hope of ever reclaiming that vast fortune.

Li Xiaofei, still processing the news, glanced at Bai Longfei.

Brother, that easy life you are about to settle into doesn’t seem so easy anymore.

Bai Longfei simply smiled, stepping forward to take Miao Youwei’s delicate hand in his own.

"I have long known about Youwei's decision to donate the fortune and fully supported her. My love for her is purely because I admire her as a person. Her strength, her resilience, her kindness, and her calm composure have nothing to do with her wealth," said Bai Longfei with a voice filled with deep affection.

Miao Youwei's stunning face lit up with a radiant smile of happiness.

"We will walk the path ahead with Little Du Juan by our side, steadily and confidently," she said with a serene yet firm tone. "We will create everything we need with our own hands... Thank you all for attending our wedding, and may every friend here today find true love and happiness."

In that moment, many were moved by the powerful spirit that woman displayed. She wasn’t just a pretty face riding on the blessings of those before her. She was a true strong woman. A woman with immense mental fortitude and noble character.

The hall erupted into applause. Little Du Juan, sensing the respect in the atmosphere, lifted her head proudly, her small face glowing with pride.

But the Du family members, in stark contrast, felt their hearts turn cold. They were filled with a mix of desperation and fury, almost to the point of spitting blood. They watched helplessly as their golden opportunity slipped away.

"Miao Youwei, you wretch! You deserve to die a thousand times!" Even the cunning and composed Du Longshan lost his composure, trembling with rage. "Today, I will turn your wedding into a funeral!"

He gestured sharply at his men.

Kill!

The Du family's warriors surged forward like a tidal wave. Chen Fei, Qin Dewei, and the others stood up, ready to intervene.

"No need for a sledgehammer to kill a chicken," Li Xiaofei interjected, stepping forward confidently. "Principal, Mr. Qin, leave it all to your student."

He moved swiftly to position himself between the attackers and the wedding guests. Pure starforce qi erupted from him like a flood breaking through a dam. In an instant, everyone in the hall felt a crushing pressure, as if the very air around them was threatening to flatten them into the ground. This overwhelming pressure was not even directly aimed at them, yet it was enough to make their hearts race with fear.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The warriors at the forefront of the Du family's charge were the first to encounter this invisible wall of force. It felt like they had run headfirst into a solid, unyielding barrier. Caught off guard, they were thrown back, their limbs breaking and their bones shattering upon impact. The hall echoed with the sounds of screams and chaos.

Li Xiaofei advanced step by step, his presence alone enough to force the Du family members back. His goal was clear, to remove every single one of them from the hall so the wedding could proceed undisturbed.

The incredible pressure he radiated only intensified with each step he took, pushing forward like an unstoppable force of nature. Du Longshan and the others felt an overwhelming, uncontrollable force crashing toward them. No matter how they struggled, it was futile. One by one, the Du family members were pushed backward.

In the end, all of them were forced out of the hall, stumbling and disheveled. After twenty steps, Li Xiaofei reached the entrance of the hall. By that point, every member of the Du family had been forcibly expelled from the restaurant in utter disgrace.

"Brother, let's continue the wedding. Don't miss the auspicious time," Li Xiaofei said, standing at the entrance with a confident smile. "Leave everything else to me."

At that moment, Wang Siyu, Gu Haochen, Fang Buyi, and the others felt a shiver run down their spines. Meanwhile, Huang Yueru, Liu Yao, and the other female classmates were covered in goosebumps. This guy was just too cool.

In ancient times, there was a single warrior who could hold off an entire army. Today, Li Xiaofei had single-handedly forced a century-old noble family to retreat. He didn’t hesitate to offend one of the five great families, the Du family, all for the sake of his brother!

This was loyalty at its finest and courage that reached the heavens! This was the president of the Cloudy Sky Gang.

Dressed in her bridesmaid gown, Tan Qingying couldn't hold back the smile that spread across her face. She lifted the hem of her dress and ran toward the young man standing at the door without hesitation. She slipped her hand in his as they stood shoulder to shoulder at the entrance.

Bang!

The doors slowly closed, the thin panels seemingly dividing the entire world in two. No. What separated the two worlds wasn’t the doors. It was the young man standing outside them.

Inside the hall, Bai Longfei stood frozen on the stage, staring blankly ahead. He couldn’t help but ask himself over and over again how he had been so incredibly fortunate in this life to have become friends with Li Xiaofei.

Below the stage, Wang Siyu, Gu Haochen, Zheng Shou, and the others were telling themselves repeatedly how glad they were to have answered Li Xiaofei’s call and come today. Li Xiaofei was the kind of person who would always be worth treating with genuine sincerity. If he could stand so firmly by Bai Longfei today, he would surely stand by all of his friends in the future. What a stroke of luck it was to have someone like him as a friend.

Huang Yueru, Liu Yao, and the other female classmates couldn’t help but let their admiration show, their eyes practically sparkling with affection. Who wouldn’t be captivated by such a heroic and chivalrous young man?

Bai Longfei felt the urge to rush outside and fight alongside his brother. But Chen Fei stopped him.

"Trust him." The principal with the peach blossom eyes said calmly. "Continue with the ceremony. Don’t miss the auspicious time for the wedding."

The wedding continued. The ceremonial music played, and the guests offered their most heartfelt blessings to the newlyweds. Yet, their thoughts lingered on the battle taking place outside.

Soon, it was time for the toasts. At that moment, the doors slowly opened once again. Li Xiaofei entered, hand in hand with Tan Qingying, completely unharmed and calm.

"Looks like I made it just in time for a drink." He said with a relaxed smile.

The two walked up to Bai Longfei and his wife. Bai Longfei instinctively glanced over Li Xiaofei's shoulder at the entrance.

He could just make out the figures of the Cloudy Sky Gang's warriors working hard. They were picking up the unconscious bodies of the Du family members, loading them onto carts, and hauling them away.

"Don't worry," Li Xiaofei reassured him, "Today is your big day, so I didn’t go too hard on them. No one was killed."

Bai Longfei turned to stare at him in shock. He said, "You... took them all down... how did you do it?"

Li Xiaofei chuckled lightly. "Come on, don’t ask such stupid questions. The Du family is nothing more than a bunch of weaklings before me." As he spoke, he lifted his wine glass and, recalling an old saying, couldn’t resist showing off a bit more. "This wine is still warm."

The entire room fell silent for a moment before they let out a collective groan. That was over the top. The wine was never warm in the first place!
