The most shocked were Li Chaoge and the two princesses of the Holy Light Empire.
"Senior Witch, my apologies. Children are still young, prone to getting hot-blooded..."
Zhou Hongfu, who had already stepped in front of Ling Zhan, wore his familiar polite smile.
For a junior to point at a senior's nose and arrogantly demand a duel to the death—
No matter who saw it, such behavior left them in the wrong.
Of course...
A tactful apology was the greatest attempt at reconciliation Zhou Hongfu believed he could offer.
If this Senior Witch wanted to take the opportunity to strike at Ling Zhan, then he could not blame Zhou Hongfu for crushing the Myriad Laws Jade Talisman in his hand and inviting the Myriad Laws Immortal Lord to descend.
To say nothing else.
Among the four strongest Dharma Gods, the one most capable in battle was this Myriad Laws Immortal Lord.
Just as Zhou Hongfu thought this Senior Witch would strike in furious rage...
He turned his head, only to discover in astonishment that the Senior Witch's red lips still held their alluring curve.
Yet beneath those sunglasses, her eyes...
Perhaps it was Zhou Hongfu's imagination, but he seemed to sense an extremely greedy, morbid gaze passing through him and landing on the Jobless Freelancer behind him.
Uh...
"Ling Zhan, apologize to my teacher immediately!"
At that moment, Princess Sheng Luni calmly stepped forward, directing her hostility straight at Ling Zhan.
Clearly.
This Jobless Freelancer's humiliation of her teacher had made her very unhappy.
The next second...
Before Ling Zhan could speak, Li Chaoge beside him sneered.
"Sheng Luni, who the hell do you think you are, talking to Ling Zhan like that?"
"Senior Witch hasn't even spoken. Is it your turn to butt in?"
"You..." Sheng Luni immediately frowned.
