"What happened?!"
Just then, a cold, questioning voice came from the doorway.
Blood Edge Divine General Wang Shenghan stepped into the banquet hall and frowned when he saw more than a dozen Wang Family members weeping on the ground.
Swish!
An invisible wave spread out and landed on the dozen or so people on the ground. The crying and shouting immediately subsided, and they gradually calmed down.
Lu Zhan stood next to Wang Shenghan, glanced at Ning Chuan standing alone in the arena, and roughly guessed what had happened.
"Uncle Shenghan, just now Wang Longyun and the others were with Mengyue..."
Wang Ke stepped forward and explained in detail what had happened.
There was no favoritism shown towards Wang Longyun, Wang Longtao, or others.
Ning Chuan was not blamed.
After listening, Wang Shenghan's face turned cold. He glanced at the dozen or so people on the ground and reprimanded them, "Didn't I tell you not to cause trouble?"
"Uncle Shenghan, we know we were wrong!"
I'll never do it again!
I shouldn't have forced Lu Mengyue to dance with me!
The dozen or so young Wang Family on the ground, disregarding their lingering fear, quickly got up and bowed their heads to admit their mistake.
As Divine General, Wang Shenghan's status within the family is second only to the Heavenly King of the Wang Family.
He is usually dignified and imposing.
His word is as good as gold.
Few dared to disobey.
Seeing their miserable state, Wang Shenghan decided against further punishment. He turned his gaze to Ning Chuan and coldly questioned him:
Why attack members of the Wang Family?
Upon hearing Wang Shenghan define the incident as an attack, Lu Mengyue's expression changed slightly. She quickly stepped forward, blocking Ning Chuan's path, and said fearlessly:
"It's all my fault. Ning Chuan only acted because of me!"
Ning Chuan's gaze passed over Lu Mengyue and met Wang Shenghan's eyes directly. His expression was calm and serene as he said, "I would like to ask Blood Edge Divine General, is your punishment of Wang Longtao and the others merely a reprimand?"
"Outsiders have no right to interfere in the Wang Family's internal affairs!"
A hint of impatience flashed in Wang Shenghan's eyes, and his voice was icy.
He wouldn't have explained it if he hadn't considered that Ning Chuan would inevitably become Divine General in the future.
What right does an ordinary genius have to question a Divine General!
In particular, having held a high position for so long, he had become accustomed to his word being law.
After a moment's thought, Wang Shenghan made a decision and pronounced. " Ning Chuan, considering that you did this to help Lu Mengyue, which is understandable, I will not increase your punishment!"
How you attacked these members of the Wang Family —make them fight back exactly as they attacked you, and then this matter will be considered closed!
Upon hearing this, Ning Chuan's lips curled into a slight, sarcastic smile.
That's really fair.
Wang Shenghan looked at the dozen or so people and ordered, "You can start now, then we'll leave!"
The words were finished.
A flash of hatred crossed Wang Longtao's face. He took the lead and strode forward.
Ning Chuan calmly gazed at Wang Longtao, his dark eyes reflecting an endless ocean of night.
Before Ning Chuan could unleash the Dark Night Abyss on Wang Longtao, Wang Longtao suddenly knelt down. His mind replayed the endless, deathly darkness, and fear overwhelmed him. He repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, saying:
I'll never do it again!
I'll never do it again!
Then, the other members of the Wang Family who were heading towards Ning Chuan paused and stopped in their tracks.
They were not as despicable as Wang Longtao.
But it wasn't much better.
His body trembled violently; the fear in his heart was impossible to conceal and was palpable.
The endless darkness was truly torturous.
Upon seeing this, Wang Shenghan's expression turned completely cold. He shouted sternly, " Ning Chuan, you've gone too far! If you want to be arrogant, you should at least know who you're talking to!"
As he spoke, Wang Shenghan exuded a terrifying aura, incredibly oppressive, like a massive tsunami crashing down on Ning Chuan.
At this moment, Lu Zhan extended his right hand, clenched it in mid-air, and an invisible force descended, incredibly powerful, shattering Wang Shenghan's aura.
boom!
The aftershocks of the collision spread rapidly.
In an instant, all the crystal chandeliers hanging in the banquet hall shattered into dust, scattering like a sandstorm.
Wang Shenghan turned his head, staring coldly at Lu Zhan, and said, "You're going to stop me?!"
"Yes."
Lu Zhan said calmly.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall instantly became tense and menacing.
The scene was deathly silent.
Haotian Knight versus Titled Divine General!
If the two were to fight to the death, the aftershocks of their battle would be enough to destroy a city with a population of ten million.
The younger generation of the Wang Family all held their breath, not daring to breathe too heavily.
Suddenly, a calm voice broke the deathly silence of the hall.
" Uncle Lu, don't stop him, let him make his move."
Ning Chuan looked relaxed as he gazed at Wang Shenghan, showing no tension or fear.
Many eyes turned to Ning Chuan, their expressions filled with confusion.
Wang Shenghan is a Venerable God general!
It's one of those well-known brands!
Even Wang Shenghan himself was taken aback upon hearing this.
"Arrogant!"
Coming to his senses, a flash of anger crossed Wang Shenghan's face, and he coldly retorted, "No matter how talented you are, you cannot disrespect Divine General..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
Wang Shenghan's voice abruptly stopped, as if someone had grabbed him by the neck.
He clearly saw a token in Ning Chuan's left hand, its entire body blood red, its surface covered with exquisite patterns, as if blood were flowing from it.
" God-Slaying King Token!"
Wang Shenghan subconsciously took a step back, his tone filled with awe.
It's not that Wang Shenghan is timid.
He was utterly shocked.
The God-Slaying King Token is the symbol of the Bai Qi Heavenly King!
Shatter!
Wang Xian!
Those who hold authority in this era can be counted on one hand.
In the thousands of years that followed, only one wielder of the command died because of an attack by a Heavenly King from the Alien Council.
Bai Qi did not arrive in time.
However, this incident did not diminish the deterrent effect of the God-Slaying King Token.
Afterwards, Bai Qi, alone with only a gun, stormed into the Alien Council and brutally killed the Heavenly King!
Upon hearing Wang Shenghan's words, the young people of the Wang Family were visibly shocked and their expressions changed drastically.
Wang Longyun, Wang Longtao, and others were even more terrified.
As scions of Heavenly King family, they knew very well what the God-Slaying King Token meant!
Bai Qi Heavenly King must protect this person.
Anyone who dares to attack or kill Heavenly King must be prepared to pay with their life.
It should be noted that there is a huge gap between even the Heavenly King.
In terms of both strength and status, the Wang Family's Heavenly King is a step behind the Bai Qi Heavenly King.
"The deterrent power of the God-Slaying King Token seems to be stronger than I imagined."
Thoughts raced through his mind. Ning Chuan toyed with the token in his hand and said indifferently, " Blood Edge Divine General, weren't you going to attack me? Why are you still standing here?"
Wang Shenghan's expression stiffened slightly, a bitter look creeping onto his face.
He was genuinely afraid that Ning Chuan would crush the God-Slaying King Token.
Let's set aside the punishment he received after Bai Qi Heavenly King's arrival.
Bai Qi Heavenly King questioned him about why he attacked Ning Chuan.
He couldn't explain it.
You can't exactly say that the young man from the Wang Family got beaten up by the even younger Ning Chuan, and that he, the dignified Blood Edge Divine General, couldn't stand by and watch, so he prepared to take action against a Second-Rank Martial Artist.
If word gets out, I'll be dead on the spot!
