Chapter 948 - Squash Him to Death (1/2)

“Bang!”

At first no one spoke a word, but a few seconds later, a wave of raucous gasps was heard. Many people widened their eyes in shock as they gaped at Chen Fan.

“What did he say? It would be an honor to sit down with him and his servant? Did I hear him right? Most of the people at the table are Perfected Cultivators of at least the Golden Core level.”

People doubted their ears.

A well-connected guest said, “Those guests are far more powerful than peak Golden Core Cultivators. Some of them became household names a few hundred years ago. That brawny man over there, for example, is the second disciple of the Ghost Underworld Sect, Gui Mingzi’s closest sect brother. The young man in black outfit ranked number five among the warrior generals of the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect. His name is Wu Shan. That young fellow with a sword on his back is the Xuankong Sword Prince. Among them are Mu Yanping and Zhang Jiulin whom I’m sure you have heard of.

“Look at that young man with a pale cast. He is the heir of the Gongsun Family, and ranked number eighty-five on the Longevity Roll.

“His companions are also talented young elites. That one is the senior disciple at Violet Moon Peak, Hua Nonyin. The one beside her is Lin Xiao, the Reincarnation Sect Grand Elder’s favorite.”

His revelation had shocked everyone on the one-hundredth floor.

Heirs of Heavenly Sects and Longevity Roll Elites were rare even inside Tianyuan City. These guests’ reputation and renown added to their disbelief in Chen Fan’s brazen arrogance.

“Who is that guy? What is he thinking?”

“He is the True Dragon G.o.ddess’ brother, not Jun Aochen or Li Huaixian.”

“Not even Jun Aochen’s talent and Li Huaixian’s power could justify his arrogance. Those guests are also supported by many powerful sects.”

Many people lamented Chen Fan’s actions.

They looked at Chen Fan as if he were already dead.

Heavenly Talents such as those guests would not tolerate his insults. Chen Fan had offended five mighty Heavenly Sects such as the Ghost Underworld Sect, the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect and the Gongsun Family. Only a Heavenly Lord could save him after this.

“He is courting death!”

Even the Zhu Sisters were rendered speechless.

Both Wu Shan and the Xuankong Sword Prince pulled a dark face and shot hostile glares at Chen Fan.

“Very well.”

Yang Gangfeng’s anger turned into a grin.

He no longer held back his energy and slowly revealed the monstrous power that had been lurking undercover. Many servant girls couldn’t withstand the intense energy and started to tremble slightly. Meanwhile, the Reincarnation Sect disciples’ faces paled and had to use their True Qi to hold their ground.

“Hehe, I thought I was the most arrogant person here, but this guy is on another level.”

Yang Gangfeng smirked coldly.

He fixed his gaze on Chen Fan as his energy swept across the s.p.a.ce, smothering Chen Fan with its immense pressure.

No average Connate Cultivator could hold out against a peak Golden Core Cultivator’s power.

“What are you doing, Yang Gangfeng?” Xiao Mang shouted and rushed to stand in front of Chen Fan.

Golden energy poured out of her body, and formed a golden energy screen that blocked Yang Gangfeng’s attack. A golden mist rose behind her and formed a golden True Dragon. It floated around Chen Fan and protected him.

“Xiao Mang, are you sure you want to get involved? I respect you because you’re the goodness of your sect. Without that t.i.tle, you are but a mid-stage Connate Cultivator. I can crush you with a slap of my hand,” Yang Gangfeng said sinisterly.

“Try me,” Xiao Mang said coldly.

The golden energy roiled like boiling water. Her eyes turned into two slits like those of a dragon. The True Dragon Energy tainted her hair golden as its intensity multiplied. Although her energy couldn’t compare against Yang Gangfeng in terms of magnitude, it was much purer and had a majestic quality.

“Old Yang!”

Hua Nonyin furrowed her brow and grunted.

Chen Fan’s action didn’t sit well with her either, but she was tasked to look after Xiao Mang and she didn’t want to let the elders down.

“Very well, I will let this slide for the sake of Elder Yuelon. But your brother has to kneel and apologize to me. As for his servant, I think a broken leg would be a fair punishment,” Yang Gangfeng said firmly.

“Over my dead body!”

Xiao Mang took a stop forward and sent out a couple of energy bursts.

Chen Fan had saved her many times, and was the closest person to her heart since her parents’ death. She would never allow anyone to insult Chen Fan.

However, this time, even Hua Nonyin remained silent.

The Xuankong Sword Prince, Mu Yanping and Wu Shan wore cold grins. Even many Reincarnation Sect disciples watched on gloatingly.

Heavenly Talents would not take any insult, much less a Heavenly Sect.

Chen Fan was just a lowly Connate Cultivator, but he had brazenly provoked several Heavenly Sect Heirs. This was a deadly mistake in the highly hierarchical world of cultivation.

In this world, the one who wields more strength was always right.

“Sect sister Xiao Mang, brother Yang has already compromised and lightened the punishment. What harm can an apology do?” Lin Xiao said placatingly.
