The guard waited for instruction for a while but didn’t get any. So he looked up. He noticed that the mighty family lords were shaken to the core and their faces were as pale as paper.
“What is going on?” Even as the guard wondered in his mind, he heard Lii Family Lord’s shaky voice.
“It… it’s that man?”
He got no reply, but the silence had confirmed his question.
Bai Wuji had presided over Southeast Province and it is not likely that he would have any enemy in Jiang Bei. Plus, the visitor said his last name is Chen and he is from Chu Zhou City, Si Shui County. It must not be a coincidence. By then, even the aloof Seu Yunzhi seemed to have lost her cool.
Anyone who dabbled in martial arts would have heard of Chen Beixuan’s name.
Chen Beixuan was not going to let the Seu Family get away with it if he heard that they had offered Yu Wenjin to the Ghost Witch Sect. Even as Seu Family rushed to improvise an excuse, she heard a cold voice come up: “Lord Bai, is this how you treat your guests?”
Everyone wrenched their head toward the speaker and saw a couple were already through the threshold. The man was of average looks and was in his twenties. He wore a casual outfit and linked his hands behind his back while holding a stoic and distant expression. The girl had breathtaking beauty and was in a white traditional outfit with a sword strapped to his back.
“How… How did you get in? Didn’t I tell you to wait outside?”
The guard rounded his eyes and was about to lash out at Chen Fan.
To his surprise, Bai Wuji abruptly rose to his feet and scurried to the young man. But he didn’t get close to him. When he was still a dozen steps away from Chen Fan, he bowed deeply and said: “Junior Bai Wuji welcomes you, Immortal Master Chen. Your presence honors us. All hail the Immortal Master Chen!”
By then, everyone knew who the visitor was.
“Pee’ lee Paa’laa…”
Everyone rushed to get out of their chair and hurried to come over to Chen Fan.
“We are the six great families of the Southeast Province. We welcome you, Immortal Master Chen.”
The guard was rendered speechless by the development.
People who bowed to the young man were not ordinary individuals, they included the lords of the Lii Family, Yuan family, and the Seu Family.
Anyone of them was an extraordinary mighty figure who possessed unmatched Dharmic powers. The Perfected Cultivator s.h.i.+, in particular, was a dominant figure in the Southeast Province whose influence was rivaled only by a couple of other men.
However, all these powerful men and women bowed to the young man. Who exactly was the young man?
Even as the guard pondered on his question, he heard Chen Fan said slowly: “Lord Bai, I trusted Yu Wenjin to you, and you had promised me Yu Wenjin’s safety. What do you have to say to me now?”
Bai Wuji’s body trembled as words got stuck in his throat, failing to form a sentence.
“So you are Seu Yunzhi, the family lord of the Seu Family of Grand Yin? Where is Wenjin? She was going to be your disciple, so I was told.”
Chen Fan landed his gaze on the gorgeous woman in a gown.
Seu Yunzhi looked up and was about to make up some excuses, however, as soon as she connected gazes with Chen Fan’s indifferent and dispa.s.sionate eyes, her mind suddenly went blank and the lies she made up were nowhere to be found.
Such was the power of the Divine Will of a Divine Sea level cultivator that Seu Yunzhi’s mind was easily overwhelmed.
“It’s the Ghost Witch Sect. They came to us and demanded us to hand over Yu Wenjin, or they would kill us all. What choice did we have? Why don’t you pick on someone of your own size and go knock on the Ghost Witch Sect’s door?”
Seu Nanan shouted at Chen Fan loudly.
Her audacious remarks terrified everyone. Her mother’s legs trembled uncontrollably and threatened to bring her down to the ground.
Seu Nanan was not only spoiled by her parents, but she had never stepped foot outside of Southeast Province. Thanks to the valor of ignorance that emboldened the girl to fling back at Chen Fan.
“Yu Wenjin was taken away by the Ghost Witch Sect?”
Chen Fan’s face suddenly became severe.
Chen Fan had listened to their previous conversation using Divine Will, so he already knew the Ghost Witch Sect was involved in Yu Wenjin’s disappearance.
However, hearing it again from Seu Nanan had stoked the fire in Chen Fan. A powerful wave of energy suddenly burst out from Chen Fan and swept across the entire hall like a hurricane. The temperature in the hall suddenly dropped a few degrees. Even Seu Nanan was shocked by the development and reckoned that she had just ruffled the feathers of someone extremely powerful.
“Very well… It’s the Ghost Witch Sect, is it? They have kidnapped my friend, so they left me with no other choice than to wipe them out from this planet.”
Chen Fan said calmly.
However, those who had heard his words were terrified.
“Pahda!”
Lii Family Lord’s knees finally gave in and dropped to the ground. Perfected Cultivator s.h.i.+ pleaded: “Immortal Master Chen, please allow me to explain. None of us wanted to see Wenjin being taken away, so the fault is not ours—”
“uh?”
Before Perfected Cultivator s.h.i.+ had finished his words, Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and shot out two rays of Divine Light from his eyes at the old man.
The blow sent a tremor throughout Perfected Cultivator s.h.i.+’s body. He stumbled back a dozen steps and fell back. Blood spilled out from his eyes and ears.
“Sthhh.”
Everyone was shocked.
