Chapter 1837: Overbearing Forcefulness (1/2)
The guests took a deep breath after hearing the royal lord. His comment wasn’t only aggressive but also refused to give any face to the Peng Clan.
Remember that this was their forefather’s celebration. But now, causing trouble due to past grievances was directly ruining the feast without giving any consideration for Star Stomper High G.o.d.
The humans in the guest scowled in response. Star Stomper’s contribution to the hundred races was too famous so it didn’t matter whether the Peng was in decline or not, the hundred races would always view him with reverence. But now, this royal lord wanted to ruin his celebration? It was also an attack towards the hundred races.
“So I should be testing your kingdom’s imperial arts then?” Peng Yue stood up without hesitation with lightning coursing through his eyes!
Heavenly Phoenix was indeed powerful on top of having a mighty son-in-law. People should fear them but the Peng Clan would never swallow this indignation.
“Ancestor Peng, you need to rethink this. You might be stronger than me but I’m not someone you can provoke! I came with sincerity to this celebration today but when your High G.o.d ambushed my son-in-law back then, this was already a declaration of war against the Monarch Clan. If it wasn’t for my son-in-law’s magnanimity, your clan would already be flattened by now! Today, you dare to protect my son's murderer? This is an unforgivable sin! Hand him over now and apologize on top of accepting your punishment to my son-in-law, or my daughter will mobilize against your clan! She has millions under her banner with more than ten High G.o.ds and the War-Monarch Emperors behind her. You better think twice right now!” The royal lord was oppressive in tone, no longer holding anything back.
All the guests were stirred by his speech and felt a chill running down their spine.
The royal lord actually wanted the Peng Clan to submit to Jin Ge and compensate for his losses? This was no longer a slap to the face, more like a stomp.
The cultivators from the hundred races were angered but no one dared to step up and say anything. They needed to think about whether they could afford to do so. His daughter had a ma.s.sive army with emperors as her backing. It meant that she was simply unstoppable. Who would dare to provoke her?
Everyone understood that Jin Ge had gained enough allies after the ambush last time. He was determined to win in the next compet.i.tion for the Heaven's Wills.
In fact, no one here knew that the royal lord was only boasting, borrowing the prestige of a tiger.
It was true that his daughter had a ma.s.sive army with a few High G.o.ds listening to her. Moreover, Jin Ge had also won the support of some Grand Emperors.
However, she didn't demand any reparation from the Peng Clan. On the contrary, she wanted to keep a low profile in order to ama.s.s more strength. At the right moment, she would use all of her acc.u.mulated resources and forces for her husband's next attempt.
She was worried about a second ambush from the hundred races. Thus, she did everything possible in order to have a smooth sailing. There was no way she would waste one good soldier on another cause!
She even went as far as talking to certain sects from the hundred races such as the Jilin Clan, Dragon Citadel, and Sunset Glow Valley. She wanted to please them and had thoughts of forming alliances.
The royal lord didn't feel the same way. He believed that because of his daughter's current military potential, he was unstoppable.
He tried to get her to agree to avenging her brother but she refused and even persuaded him, asking him to calm down.
Alas, her words fell upon deaf ears. He was h.e.l.lbent on retribution.
Recently, he heard of Li Qiye staying at the Jilin Clan. This further convinced him that his death had something to do with that clan. However, his power alone couldn't do anything if the clan wanted to protect him.
