Chapter 1219: Complete Shock
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Father Chen glanced at Purgatory before checking on Wan Jiansheng's injuries. Wan Jiansheng's arm was totally ravaged by immortal energy. Only through using many precious immortal-ranked herbs and medicines would he have a chance to recover.
"Brother Wan, our Chen Clan will do the best to treat the injuries." Father Chen glanced at Wan Jiansheng's father as he spoke. The Wan Clan had power on the same level as his Chen Clan. He naturally didn't want to offend them.
"As for you…" Father Chen glanced back at Purgatory as an unexpected look could be seen flickering in his eyes. Before this, he already felt the aura of this maiden was extraordinary and it was possible that she was an immortal. Seems like his conjecture was right, and not only that, her strength was even higher than what he expected.
Seems like in Lin Shuai's sect, there were still people with outstanding talent whose achievements surpassed that of their elders within the sect.
"Our Chen Clan will be responsible for treating the injuries. Maiden, just apologize to nephew Jiansheng and this matter shall come to a close." Father Chen spoke.
"Brother Chen, is an apology enough?" How could the father of Wan Jiansheng give up so easily?
"What does Brother Wan wish to do?" Father Chen asked.
"This maiden is too brazen. Hand her over to me, I will bring her back to the Wan Clan." Wan Jiansheng's father replied.
"Father, marrying Little Yi to Lin Shuai is already a loss of face considering Little Yi's status. To think that the people of Lin Shuai's sect still dares to be so arrogant? They simply can't be spared." Huo Yan icily spoke. The cultivation base of this maiden was actually so high? This fact caused him to feel extremely unhappy in his heart.
"Purgatory." At this moment, a voice rang out. Everyone turned in the direction of the voice only to see that it was Qin Wentian who had spoken.
"Today is the wedding day of my senior brother. Don't spoil the atmosphere too much." Qin Wentian continued. Purgatory didn't say anything, she then quietly returned and stood by his side.
Everyone stared at Qin Wentian as they speculated in their hearts as to who he was exactly. It seemed like the female immortal obeyed him instantly and completely.
"Senior brother, me and everyone in our sect came here today to offer our sincere blessings. However, it's just that someone actually intended to humiliate you on your grand wedding day. Forgive me, I cannot endure this point." Qin Wentian stared at Lin Shuai as he spoke.
After that, he turned his gaze to Huo Yan. "Earlier, your words were filled with disrespect. Now, I just want to ask you a single question. Given that your cultivation base is inferior to my senior brother, where did you find the courage to say such words? Are you using your so-called status to prop you up again?"
"I'm the brother-in-law of Little Yi. Can't I give some criticism?" Huo Yan was extremely unhappy when he saw the disdain in Qin Wentian's eyes.
"Since you are her brother-in-law, it means that you belong to the same generation as my senior brother Lin Shuai. However, despite so, your cultivation base is inferior to his. What qualifications do you have to talk so much then?" Qin Wentian spoke.
"Hehe." Huo Yan coldly laughed. "The Chen Clan is a famous clan and so is my Huo Clan. This is why Chen Xue and I are both qualified to be married to each other. However, who the hell do you think your sect is?"
"Since this is the case, you are interfering based on your status as a descendant of the Huo Clan? To put it plainly, it's only because of your birth that you feel you are superior to others. If you take a step back and see things clearly, you will soon realize that you are nothing but trash." Qin Wentian calmly spoke. "Since you depended on your identity as someone from the Huo Clan to insult and humiliate my senior brother, as well as scolding a maiden from my group as a lowly slave and slut, the Huo Clan should be very strong right?"
"Truly, a brat who hasn't seen the world before." Someone mocked. "The Huo Clan is definitely a peak power in this city, with many peak-level immortal-foundation characters."
"What do you think?" A cold smile of arrogance appeared on Huo Yan's face. He stood straight back and tall, as though he felt it was a matter of glory to be part of the Huo Clan.
"Brother Chen, shouldn't we drive such people out directly?" The father of Wan Jiansheng coldly added.
"How does the Chen Clan treat their guests exactly?" At this moment, someone spoke. When Father Chen was thinking how to reply, the middle-aged green-robed man walked over, having an expression of unhappiness on his face. Father Chen felt his heart shaking in shock, to think that the people of Lin Shuai's sect actually angered him. Most probably, it should be because that female immortal had injured Wan Jiansheng. Seems like the only way now was to evict the people from Lin Shuai's sect.
"You guys are truly laughable." Chen Ao stared at Qin Wentian's group as he berated.
The fathers of Wan Jiansheng and Huo Yan had smiles on their faces when they noticed the green-robed middle-aged man was walking over to administer justice.
"Brother Fang." All of them bowed.
"These people were too brazen. To think that their actions even startle Brother Fang." Huo Yan's father stated.
"Uncle Fang, there's no need to trouble yourself with this matter." Huo Yan bowed to the middle-aged man in green, exuding politeness.
"Who is your uncle?"
All of a sudden, the atmosphere turned cold. Huo Yan froze there, as he lifted his head, staring at the middle-aged man. He only saw coldness flashing through the eyes of the middle-aged man who was icily regarding him. "As the son-in-law of the Chen Clan, you actually insulted and humiliated Lin Shuai's sect on his wedding day, and even self-proclaimed to have an extraordinary status. Do you even know shame?"
"Brother Fang?" Huo Yan's father blinked his eyes, as though not daring to believe what he just heard. He completely couldn't understand why the attitude of the green-robed middle-aged man was like this.
This man originated from an immortal-king ranked power and had an extraordinary status. However, he didn't put on any airs and had a humble personality. If there was no other reasons, he definitely wouldn't act like this.
"Huo Han, how do you teach your child usually? To think that I still thought that you were someone worth making an acquaintance of. From today onwards, I, Fang will break off all contacts with your Huo Clan." The middle-aged man spoke in a powerful and resounding tone, causing everyone in the vicinity to be stunned. They completely couldn't understand what was happening.
This...what was going on exactly?
"Brother Fang…" The father of Wan Jiansheng who was standing beside, called out in a trembling voice.
"And you," Even before he completed his sentence, the green-robed middle-aged man already glanced at him and spoke, "Wan Jiansheng pubicily tried to take liberties with a maiden from Lin Shuai's sect. Do you think that I'm blind? Such a punishment can already be considered lenient. You even wanted the Chen Clan to hand her over to you? Does the Chen Clan have the qualifications to even do so?"
"Brother Fang, please ease your anger." Father Chen urged.
"Brother Chen." The middle-aged man glanced at Father Chen. Upon seeing that the green-robed middle-aged man still referred to him as brother, the heart of Father Chen was finally at ease.
"Chen Xue and Huo Yan were too unreasonable. You shouldn't continue to protect them. Also, since today is the wedding day of Little Yi and Lin Shuai, the atmosphere should be a happy one. How can you let these two juniors act so wilfully and make a scene?" The middle-aged man was actually lecturing Father Chen.
"Brother Chen is right." Father Chen hurriedly nodded. He suddenly thought back to this middle-aged man's attitude when he spoke to Lin Shuai, referring to him as noble nephew Lin Shuai?
Also, earlier he seemed to have probed for information regarding Lin Shuai's junior apprentice brother. Could it be…?
Father Chen naturally was an intelligent man. When he thought of this, something flashed past his mind. Could it be that this young man originated from an aristocrat clan?
However, he didn't understand if that was so, why would he join the weak sect which Lin Shuai originated from?
"The Huo and Wan Clan are simply too disappointing. If our paths cross in the future, there will no longer be a relationship between us." The green-robed middle-aged man coldly spoke.
Qin Wentian sat there, quietly watching the scene. Such a situation was something he hadn't expected. Also at this moment, the green-robed middle-aged man was actually walking towards him.
Everyone naturally saw this, puzzlement could be seen on their faces as they watched the middle-aged man approaching Qin Wentian.
"Lin Shuai and Little Yi come with me." Father Chen spoke as they followed after the middle-aged man. Qin Wentian lifted his gaze and stared at the man. He wasn't acquainted with him.
The middle-aged man lifted his wine cup and stood before him, "Initially, I, Fang still felt some bewilderment, wondering what character could exude such an extraordinary and graceful air. Until I suddenly recalled that I was fortunate enough to see the portrait of Young Lord Qin. Hence, I'm here now and may I be so bold as to toast Young Lord Qin a cup of wine as an apology. I sincerely hope that Young Lord Qin can forgive this old man for my tardy recognition."
As he spoke, under the stunned gazes of the crowd, he actually bowed extremely low to this young man before him. His entire being radiated respect.
Even Father Chen was so shocked that his steps grinded to a halt when he saw this, despite already having some guesses that Qin Wentian might be from an aristocrat clan.
The name of this middle-aged man was Fang Huai, someone from an immortal-king ranked power. Even if that young man was also from an immortal-king power, he should be able to treat the young man equally based on his status. However, seeing how humble and servile his behavior was, Qin Wentian didn't seem to be from an ordinary aristocrat clan.
Unless... Qin Wentian originated from an even stronger power compared to the Fang Clan. In addition, the power he originated from, must be many times stronger in comparison.
Upon thinking of this, Father Chen's heart started to shudder. This was an opportunity! But what was regretful was that he had unwittingly offended this person immensely before this.
Huo Yan that bastard. Also why didn't Lin Shuai say anything before this?
Huo Yan and the others were also completely stunned by this scene. They stared at the middle-aged man toasting the wine, and when they thought Qin Wentian was going to return the toast, they actually discovered that Qin Wentian had no intentions to move at all.
He merely sat there, quietly regarding the middle-aged man. Most probably, this man was an intelligent person. How could it be that he just knew of his identity? He must have known beforehand but neglected to mention anything to Father Chen, opting to watch quietly until an open conflict had actually appeared. It was only so that the middle-aged man could seize this opportunity to present himself well.
Clearly, this middle-aged man wasn't any kind-hearted character. But Qin Wentian also didn't mind his little schemes. Choosing to appear at this moment was truly an appropriate timing.
Hence, this strange scene appeared. The supreme character which was the middle-aged man, a descendant of an immortal-king ranked power, simply stood there with his back bent, showing no hints of impatience while the young man calmly sat there watching him.
When Father Chen saw this, his heart pounded even more rapidly. He didn't dare to entertain any more wild guesses. Who is this young man exactly?
"Lin Shuai, who is your junior apprentice brother?" Father Chen transmitted his voice to Lin Shuai.
Lin Shuai glanced at him, sighing silently in his heart at the pragmatism in the hearts of people. He didn't want to borrow his junior brother's status, yet if he didn't do so, everyone rolled their eyes at his marriage and even went so far to insult his sect. However, since his junior brother didn't declare his identity, Lin Shuai decided to make this future father-in-law continue feeling some more trepidation by keeping him in suspense first.
At this moment, a supremely terrifying aura suddenly gushed over. After that, a majestic figure descended from the heavens.
"I pay my respects to the ancestor." The green-robed middle-aged man directly knelt down as he respectfully called out, his words causing the hearts of many to tremble in shock.
The old ancestor of the Fang Clan!
An immortal king expert!
This Fang Clan ancestor looked extremely young. His figure directly landed next to the middle-aged man in green. He then turned to Qin Wentian and clasped his hands together, bowing in respect, "I'm Fang Mu of the Fang Clan. Who would have thought that I would encounter Young Lord Qin in a place like this. I'm extremely honored."
As the sound of his voice faded, it was like a bolt of thunder from clear skies, as the eyes of everyone at the banquet widened in shock as they stood up!
