The expression on Huyan Zhen's face changed rapidly. First came anger, then shock, before fear swept them both away.
"You... you... you're..."
Huyan Zhen suddenly began to stammer, his eyes filled with terror. Beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his heart leaped into his throat. He had actually attacked the Pope?!
"Does he have the right to speak?"
Seeing that Huyan Zhen was about to reveal Su Chen's true identity, Ren Lao hurriedly questioned him.
"Yes, yes, of course he does." Huyan Zhen wiped away his cold sweat.
Everyone present, apart from Tang San and Ren Lao, stared at Su Chen in astonishment. Just what status could make Huyan Zhen so afraid of him? This clearly had nothing to do with Ren Lao's position as vice president of the Blacksmith Association.
Niu Gao and the others thought of one possibility, only to dismiss it themselves. The Pope of Spirit Hall was busy preparing for the reselection assembly of the Seven Great Sects. There was no way he would come to Longxing City in the Star Luo Empire with only one companion.
"Brother Huyan, I still have business to attend to. If you have nothing else to discuss, I won't keep you," Niu Gao said coldly.
Huyan Zhen glanced at Su Chen. Seeing him give a slight nod, he immediately left with his men without another word.
"Niu Ben, what's the situation?" Tai Tan asked.
"They haven't gone far. According to our clansmen, Huyan Zhen has already deployed his sect's disciples to lie in ambush around our estate," Niu Ben said indignantly.
"Damn him! Does he really think the Defense Clan wouldn't dare fight him?" Niu Gao demanded furiously.
"Old Rhino, are you still going to hesitate?" Yang Wudi asked.
"Senior Niu, I can tell you a secret.
