There were six tables at the banquet. There were four people at the main table. Three of them were unknown, but Long Chen knew the head of the Long family, which meant the other three were the heads of the Zhao, Jiang, and Ye families.
The other four tables were all occupied by super experts from various families, all radiating the aura of Heavenly Veins. Among them were the three great Heavenly Saints of the Long family.
However, among these four tables, each table had eight people. Only three of the Long family's level of powerhouse accounted for, and including Lord Tiansi, who only had Earth Saint cultivation, the Long family's strength seemed rather thin.
At the last table, there were only four people. Long Chen recognized two: Jiang Wuwang and Long Tianrui, while the other two were both arrogant faces and sharp eyes, openly concealing the murderous intent in their eyes.
As soon as Long Chen entered, all eyes in the hall focused on him. Everyone had been chatting quietly, but suddenly there was no sound. For a moment, the atmosphere at the banquet became somewhat strange.
Lord Tiansi introduced everyone, "Let me introduce you. Who is ...?"
At the main table, an elder laughed and quickly said, "No need to introduce! Everyone knows the youngest dean in Lingxiao Academy history." Who does not understand?
My Feng Fei mentioned Dean Long Chen as soon as she arrived at the Jiang family. To be honest, at that time, everyone in the Jiang family, young and old, was unconvinced.
However, when Dean Long Chen first entered Emperor Heaven, he killed all heroes with a single blade and made all the heroes bow before him, while the Celestial Clan fled in panic, displaying heroic spirit—truly admirable! What
Long Chen didn't expect was that the Jiang family patriarch seemed quite friendly toward him. He didn't know how much of this kindness was genuine, how much came from Feng Fei's warning, or perhaps from his own wisdom.
"Yeah, it's really impressive. We saw Dean Long Chen slaughter the Long family's strong warriors with our own eyes—that awe, that awesomeness. Hehe, truly impressive." An elderly man with a head full of white hair and short stature chuckled and said.
He praised his formidable skills, but his face was full of mockery, deliberately exposing the Long family's wounds. This was to harm Long Chen and the Long family as well. Suddenly, the Long family's strong figures looked grim from top to bottom.
Long Chen laughed. This guy was really a fool. To harm Long Chen, he even implicated the entire Long family. This guy is a talent too.
"You must be the head of the Zhao family, right?" Long Chen said.
"That's right, you do have some taste." The head of the Zhao family said calmly.
"No, no, no, I can recognize you not because I have taste, but because your height is too obvious." Long Chen quickly waved his hand.
At that moment, the faces of the Zhao family's strong members changed. Among the four great divine clans, the Zhao family's strong figures were all short, and they feared others mocking them over this.
The Zhao family head hadn't expected Long Chen to be so bold, daring to mock him directly. His face darkened: "Are you looking down on me?" "
Don't say I look down on you—if you dare to be any shorter, I won't even be able to see you." Long Chen replied.
"Pfft..."
As soon as Long Chen finished speaking, Long Qianxue in the seat hurriedly covered her mouth, but was still a step too late and burst out laughing.
Although Long Qianxue had long warned herself to be serious, to be serious, to hold back no matter how funny it was, she had come to understand Long Chen's strength.
But unexpectedly, she hadn't even exchanged a few sentences before she landed a critical hit. She instantly lost her composure, and the scene became extremely strange. Long Qianxue cursed inwardly: This guy is really harmful.
The Zhao family patriarch's face turned ashen. He looked coldly at the Long family patriarch and said, "Is this the manners of your Long family disciples?" Before
the Long family patriarch could speak, Long Chen spoke up: "Bullying the weak with the strong, speaking without restraint, stealing the spotlight from the host—the Zhao family's upbringing is truly impressive." Although
the head of the Long family didn't like Long Chen either, the Zhao family head had gone a bit too far before, which was basically deliberately belittling the Long family. With Long Chen's counterattack, he felt for the first time that Long Chen was actually a decent person.
"Long Chen, you'd better pay attention to your status. What right do you have to judge the clan leader?" Someone beside Jiang Wuwang shouted coldly.
That person was none other than the Zhao family's top expert, a prodigy sealed down in ancient times, bearing a very imposing name—Zhao Qingtian.
Damn it, I have no right to judge him, but does he have the right to judge me? Long Chen immediately became angry and looked at Zhao Qingtian before him.
It must be said, Long Chen was truly wicked. He glanced at Zhao Qingtian, then at the head of the Zhao family, looked over and over several times, gestured at his chest, measured Zhao Qingtian's height, and finally looked as if he suddenly understood:
"Ah! I see, no wonder you're so eager to help the dog eat—turns out you're family! "
Courting death!"
Zhao Qingtian was instantly furious, so furious he felt like his lungs would explode. He didn't care what the occasion was and was about to act, but Jiang Wuwang grabbed him beside him.
"Young people are all proud and arrogant. It's perfectly normal to argue a little. There's no need for this!" Jiang Wuwang advised.
Although he didn't have much fondness for Long Chen, a rash conflict in such a situation was simply unreasonable and somewhat exaggerated.
Lord Tiansi's face turned ashen. He was extremely angry. These guys wanted him to invite Long Chen, saying that if someone else invited him, Long Chen definitely wouldn't give him any respect.
Now that Long Chen has arrived, they deliberately humiliated him—aren't they just slapping his face as well? Lord Tiansi said coldly, "
Master Zhao, what do you mean?"
With Lord Tiansi's cold expression, the Zhao family head immediately became somewhat wary. He hurriedly said,
"That kid Long Chen is disrespectful to his elders. I was just giving him a few lessons. Lord Tiansi, you need not take it to heart."
"A lesson?"
Long Chen was furious. He wanted to flip the table and leave, but he couldn't help but be angry.
Damn it, you called me here just to humiliate me? Alright, you want to play, huh? I'll play with you.
Long Chen sat down so confidently, sitting right next to Long Tianrui. Long Tianrui looked at Long Chen with a blank expression and said, "
If you agree to my request, I can use his head as a betrothal gift."
When Zhao Qingtian heard this, he was instantly furious. All the powerful figures present turned pale. What was going on with Long Tianrui? How can you say things like that carelessly?
Long Tianrui ignored everyone's gazes, her eyes fixed intently on Long Chen, waiting for his answer, showing no sign of joking.
Zhao Qingtian was furious. If humiliation had a hierarchy, it would be the highest kind—his head had become someone else's gift.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became extremely tense. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Long Chen's table, all looking at him.
However, Long Chen's answer surprised everyone.
"Are you sure you're out of your mind?"
