"The Venerated God is angry!"
That startled cry struck like a thunderclap, throwing everyone nearby into an uproar!
Even the Family Heads and City Lord Ye, who had already gone some distance away, hurried back. When they saw the enormous palm print in the ground, they were all dumbfounded!
They had not witnessed what had just happened, but that enormous palm print alone was enough to tell them what this place had just endured!
With a great rustling rush!
A large crowd dropped to their knees.
They were the clansmen of the Family Head who had just been slapped to death. They knelt in terror, their bodies shaking like sieves.
The newly elected Family Head knelt at the front of the crowd, his voice trembling as he begged forgiveness from the sky. "Please forgive us, Venerated God! Please forgive us! All of this was our former Family Head's wrongdoing. It had nothing to do with us! Once we learned that he had disrespected you, we expelled him! Please quell your anger and give us a chance to mend our ways. We are willing to worship you for generations!"
As the new Family Head finished speaking, the clansmen behind him cried out in panic, "We are willing to worship the Venerated God for generations!"
City Lord Ye and the other Family Heads, who had just returned, froze in shock at the sight!
Only after considerable effort did they manage to pull aside a trembling man and find out what had happened.
When they learned that the Family Head who had spoken insolently to the Venerated God had been reduced to dust by a single slap, they were all stunned!
They could hardly believe that a powerful cultivator who had been alive moments earlier had been reduced to dust in the blink
