I hate apologies after the fact!
Why didn't you old fogies show up earlier?
Seeing their younger generation being treated differently, do you think this is a good thing for the Wen Family?
Zhang Chongxian's voice was icy as he reached out and pulled Wen Qingya behind him.
In fact, Zhang Chongxian was absolutely right about the group of old men and women in front of him.
After all, he's not even 350 years old yet.
Among these old men, three are over four hundred years old.
Hearing Zhang Chongxian's reprimand, the Elder in the lead dared not refute.
"I apologize, True Lord Excellency, this is our fault."
We beg you, sir, to spare Hua Ming's life, and we will certainly give you a satisfactory solution.
Zhang Chongxian's expression remained unchanged as he replied coldly:
Too late!
I absolutely hate it when people apologize afterward!
As for how to deal with these ants, that's not up to you!
As he spoke, Zhang Chongxian turned to look at Wen Qingya and said softly:
"Qingya, what do you think we should do with this guy?"
Entrusting this matter to Wen Qingya for a decision was Zhang Chongxian's deliberate test.
If treated like this, and you still feel soft-hearted, or even choose to forgive,
Even if she marries into the Zhang Family and possesses Dual Spirit Root, she will not receive special training.
It's even less likely that he would be qualified to attend the Zhang Family's high-level meetings like Luo Lingshuang.
She can only be a pretty face, content to be a wife and mother!
Upon hearing Zhang Chongxian's question, Wen Qingya ignored the gazes of her mother, the Ancestor, and all the elders.
A detached voice rang out:
"Reporting to the Immortal Ancestor, he is ultimately a member of my bloodline, and cannot be killed."
Since he wants to cripple my cultivation, then I will repay him in kind.
Let's cripple his cultivation.
Hearing this answer, Zhang Chongxian nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay, Xiao Tian was right about you."
"Then it's your decision."
As he spoke, a sword shadow materialized around him.
It pierced directly through Wen Huaming's dantian.
He then threw it on the ground.
The moment he landed, Wen Huaming clutched his dantian with both hands and let out a heart-wrenching roar.
"Ah!
My cultivation level!
My cultivation is gone!
Ah!"
Seeing Wen Huaming's miserable state, the Wen Family members dared not speak out against their anger.
Zhang Chongxian unleashed a burst of spiritual energy to seal his voice, then looked up at the group of the Wen Family.
Although the Wen Family made mistakes, one thing should be addressed separately.
"The dowry for my young master's marriage to Wen Qingya of the Wen Family Zhang Family cannot be less than what is due."
As he spoke, Zhang Chongxian waved his hand.
A bottle of elixirs, a red lotus, and a magic sword floated in the air.
"Ten Grade 3 Third-grade Top-tier Azure Origin Qi-Transforming Pill"
"One Third-grade Top-tier- Earthfire Red Lotus."
"One Third-grade Top-tier Shattered Azure Steel Sword."
Please accept this from the Wen Family.
After pushing him in front of Wen Yanran, Zhang Chongxian glanced at Wen Shaohua and chuckled softly:
"Hehe, I wish your Wen Family will soon cultivate a Nascent Soul True Lord."
I'll take Qingya with me.
One day, you will find that the child you dislike will stand at a height that you can only look up to.
"Qingya, is there anything else you want to say to them?"
Wen Qingya shook her head. "No, Immortal Ancestor, let's go."
She was utterly disappointed in the Wen Family; only her mother allowed her to retain a sliver of hope.
"Good."
Zhang Chongxian replied, and a long sword Phantom rose beneath their feet.
He then rushed out of the hall.
In the air, Wen Qingya bowed to Zhang Chongxian and said, "Thank you for your help today Immortal Ancestor."
Otherwise, I would definitely suffer a severe blow, or even become a cripple.
"It's a disgrace to the Zhang Family."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chongxian smiled and said:
"Haha, it's what I should do."
After all, you are the future matriarch of my Zhang Family.
You have no idea, that kid Xiao Tian often mentions you in the Lineage.
That kid even came to beg me in person so that you could come to the Zhang Family sooner.
Don't let my status as that kid's Ancestor fool you; this is truly the first time he's ever asked me for a favor.
He used to go to his Seventh Uncle for help with everything.
They only remember me when it comes to errands.
Sigh, being Ancestor isn't easy.
Although it was Zhang Xuanchen who told him to come and pick up Wen Qingya, judging from Zhang Detian's excitement, he must have had that idea in mind for a long time.
That wouldn't be considered deceiving Wen Qingya.
Sigh, what's wrong with him, as the Ancestor, telling a white lie so that his descendants can get married?
Wen Qingya looked at the Silent Void True Lord in front of her, who was chatting and laughing with her without any airs.
Slightly stunned.
This is completely different from the Silent Void True Lord who sat on the Dao Platform of the Skyward Hall back then, and who just suppressed the Wen Family cultivators to the point of not daring to utter a sound.
Noticing Wen Qingya's gaze, Zhang Chongxian asked:
Why are you looking at me like that?
Everything I said is true; I didn't lie to you, little girl.
Upon hearing this, Wen Qingya waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no."
"I just feel that you, Immortal Ancestor, are somewhat different from what I remember."
Zhang Chongxian was taken aback. "You mean this?"
This is actually quite normal; everyone in my Zhang Family is the same.
When outsiders are present, we always adhere to the clan rules and maintain order.
Show your strongest and most dignified side.
If you're always laughing and joking, others won't respect or honor you.
You will soon become a member of my Zhang Family.
You'll find out then.
However, after this battle, it's likely that no one from the Wen Family will attend your wedding with Xiao Tian."
Wen Qingya shook her head and said:
"It's okay, I don't care, I'm used to it."
The East Sea Dragon Court.
Zhantian Palace.
Long Xuan sat in the main seat, with the Turtle Prime Minister standing beside him.
Beside them stood Gui Ming and Long Zhantian was devouring meat.
After a long silence, Long Xuan spoke:
"Zhan Tian, do you know which faction Zhang Xuanchen belongs to?"
"I don't know, he didn't tell me, and Turtle Prime Minister couldn't deduce it either."
How could I possibly know?
However, it must be some minor Golden Core clan; he mentioned that before.
Long Xuan's lips curled slightly as he said, "I know your father."
Long Zhantian was taken aback, then turned to look at Long Xuan: "Really?"
"Really!"
"Where is he from?"
Long Xuan chuckled, "Penglai Islands, Nascent Soul Clan, Xuanxiao Zhang Clan!"
"Impossible!" Long Zhantian suddenly stood up. "Zhang Xuanchen couldn't have lied to me. He said he came from a minor Golden Core clan, so he must be a minor Golden Core clan."
We're brothers!
He couldn't possibly be lying to me!
"Look, you're in such a hurry again." Long Xuan frowned slightly. "You are the Third Prince of my Dragon Court, and moreover, the future Dragon Court Lord who will control the entire Dragon Court!"
Stay calm no matter what happens!
"Sit down and let me finish!"
Long Zhantian sat down. It wasn't that he couldn't accept that Zhang Xuanchen came from the Nascent Soul Clan, but rather that he couldn't accept that Zhang Xuanchen had lied to him.
After all, he trusted Zhang Xuanchen so much.
After he sat down, Long Xuan continued:
"Xuan Chen didn't lie to you. Ten years ago, he did indeed come from a minor Golden Core clan."
But all of this changed drastically after Zhang Chongxian, the patriarch of the Zhang family, emerged from the Desolate Ruins of Fallen Gold and the Peak of Heavenly Mark.
Zhang Chongxian survived the certain death at the Sky Scar Apex and gained fortuitous opportunity there.
Thus, he broke through the Golden Core barrier and entered the Nascent Soul in one fell swoop.
At this time, the position of the Nine Splendor Sword Sect as the overlord of the Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain was teetering on the brink of collapse.
