As the voice rang out, a layer of golden light suddenly descended upon Lu Tongtian, who was on the verge of being crushed to pieces, shielding him from the Hun Tian Seal's oppressive force.
The next moment, a figure appeared in the banquet hall without warning.
He wore a golden robe patterned with clouds and a purple-gold crown. His face was stern and dignified, and he exuded an imposing air without even trying.
The moment the crowd saw him, everyone was startled. Then they all bowed in unison. "Greetings, City Lord!"
"Greetings, City Lord!"
Hearing everyone around him address the newcomer, Ning Wangshu raised an eyebrow. Then he glanced at the golden light shielding Lu Tongtian from the Hun Tian Seal's oppressive force. His eyes narrowed, and his heart turned cold.
Meanwhile,
Shen Jingyun, the city lord of Yunshu City, responded to the crowd's greetings with a quiet "Mm." He then turned his gaze to Ning Wangshu.
His expression displeased, he said in a low voice, "Why did you attack someone in my City Lord's Mansion, Your Excellency? Do you not owe me an explanation?"
Seeing Shen Jingyun arrive, the members of the Lu family immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Xiaoyue glanced at Ning Wangshu and Kou Wannning, then smirked triumphantly. She stepped forward at once and said, "City Lord, this man is willful, arrogant, and overbearing. Earlier, Kou Wannning, who came with him, attacked members of my Lu family."
"Even after Third Ancestor arrived, they still refused to see reason. This man, in particular, brazenly attacked him and tried to kill him. It's clear he has no regard for you, City Lord."
"Please uphold justice for my Lu family and severely punish this criminal and Kou Wannning. Give my family the justice we deserve!"
