For a ti, the banquet hall was in chaos.
Exclamations rose and fell.
The mbers of the Liu Family changed drastically, one by one, and stood up.
The first to react were a few young n of similar age to Liu Shaohan.
They looked at the head, its eyes still wide in death, their minds blank.
After a brief silence, there was a volcanic eruption of grief and indignation.
"Brother Shaohan!"
A young man in a white suit let out a piercing howl.
His eyes were bloodshot, like a madman, as he pushed away the dining table in front of him and stumbled towards the head.
"Who is it? Who killed Brother Shaohan?"
Another young man followed closely, his fists clenching with a cracking sound.
"Damn him! I'm going to tear him to shreds!"
Liu Shaohan enjoyed extrely high prestige among the younger generation of the Liu Family.
He was not only a gifted S-Class Professional but also a role model and support for many younger siblings in the Family.
Now, this favored son of heaven had died in such a humiliating way, right in front of everyone.
Who could swallow this injustice?
"Let's go! Let's go out and see!"
"No matter who it is, today he must pay with his blood!"
Several young disciples were filled with righteous indignation, their energy surging, and they directly activated their Profession abilities, rushing towards the exit of the banquet hall.
They had been blinded by anger.
At the head of the table, Old Master of the Liu Family's wrinkled face showed no emotion.
He didn't even look at the head of his grandson, in whom he had placed such high hopes, on the table.
Just as those young n were about to rush out the door.
"Everyone, stop!"
A furious roar, like a sudden clap of thunder, exploded in everyone's ears!
The voice was not loud, but it contained terrifying majesty.
The air in the entire banquet hall seed to solidify at that mont!
The young n who were about to rush out the door suddenly stiffened, as if under a paralysis spell, their feet like lead, unable to move an inch.
A mountain-like oppressive aura burst forth from Old Master of the Liu Family's seemingly old body, instantly enveloping the entire hall.
Everyone felt a pang in their hearts, and their breathing beca difficult.
The young n, in particular, turned pale, fine cold sweat oozing from their foreheads, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
They turned their heads to look at the old man at the head of the table, their eyes filled not only with grief but also a deeper sense of awe and fear from the depths of their Bloodline.
Old Master of the Liu Family slowly rose from his seat.
His gaze, like lightning, swept across the entire hall.
Finally, it landed on the impulsive young n.
"Nonsense!"
"If he could kill Shaohan, he can kill you!"
"What good is rushing out now, besides dying in vain?"
"All of you, get back here!"
The young n gritted their teeth, their faces full of unwillingness, but they ultimately dared not defy the Old Master's command.
They could only clench their fists and reluctantly retreated.
Old Master of the Liu Family then slowly reined in his oppressive aura.
But the monstrous killing intent in his heart was growing wildly.
Liu Shaohan.
An S-Class Professional, less than thirty years old, his Rank had already reached level fifty-five.
He was the most outstanding talent among the younger generation of the Liu Family, and one of the designated successors to the Family Head position.
The opponent was able to kill him so easily, without even a single distress signal being sent out.
He even managed to accurately throw his head into the core of this banquet hall.
This level of strength, this thod, was not to be underestimated.
The strength Rank was at least that of a Professional of level 70 or above.
This was no longer a simple act of revenge.
This was a provocation!
It was the most blatant humiliation and declaration of war against the entire Liu Family!
Old Master of the Liu Family's gaze swept over the silent guests, his thoughts racing.
Who exactly was it?
Within the Imperial Capital, who would dare to offend the Liu Family so recklessly?
Was it those old rivals who had been openly and secretly battling the Liu Family for years?
Or... those hardliners in the military who disliked the Liu Family's style?
No, that's not right.
No matter who it was, it was impossible for them to act so decisively, leaving no room for maneuver.
This was not a normal conflict; this was more like... an unending vendetta!
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was extrely oppressive.
The guests, one by one, felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles, wishing they could imdiately find a hole to crawl into.
They dared not interfere with the Liu Family's affairs, nor did they want to.
So astute Family representatives, seeing the extrely grim expressions on the faces of the Liu Family mbers, had already begun to calculate.
The Liu Family had probably gotten themselves into huge trouble this ti.
Just in this deathly silence.
A calm voice, devoid of any emotion, drifted like a ghost from outside the banquet hall.
Clearly, it reached everyone's ears.
"Old Master of the Liu Family, for your ninetieth birthday."
"Do you like this gift I've given you?"
The voice cut through the clamor, clearly reaching everyone's ears.
It carried a hint of playfulness, a hint of coldness.
"Who's there?!"
The Liu Family mbers were all on high alert, their energy surging, their gazes warily fixed on the main entrance of the banquet hall.
Tap... tap... tap... A slow and clear sound of footsteps ca from outside the door.
The sound was not heavy, yet it was like heavy hamrs, precisely striking everyone's hearts.
This was followed by a grating dragging sound.
As if sothing heavy was being dragged across a smooth marble floor.
Soon, a tall figure slowly erged from the darkness outside the door, stepping into the brilliant lights of the banquet hall.
The newcor wore a black trench coat, his figure tall and straight.
A wild mane of black hair was casually tied back, with a few strands of bangs falling, obscuring his deep, unrippled eyes.
His face bore a rough stubble, adding a touch of ruggedness and nonchalance.
One hand rested casually on the hilt of a long, narrow katana.
And the other hand, as if carrying a bag of trash, gripped a person's hair.
A middle-aged man, covered in blood and no longer recognizable, was dragged in like a dead dog into this opulent place.
The man seed to still have a breath left, his body occasionally twitching unconsciously.
The dragged body left a shocking dark red bloodstain on the mirror-like marble floor.
It stretched all the way to the center of the banquet hall.
The entire hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone was completely stunned by the bloody and bizarre scene before them.
Who was this person?
And who was the person he was dragging?
What did he want to do?
Countless questions swirled wildly in everyone's minds.
In the crowd, a sharp-eyed guest imdiately recognized the bloodied middle-aged man.
He gasped!
"That... that's..."
"That's the Liu Family Head... Liu Chengyun!"
Boom!
These words, like a thunderbolt from the Nine Heavens, struck everyone's minds!
In an instant, countless gasps of cold air filled the banquet hall.
Liu Chengyun!
The current Family Head of the Liu Family!
The important figure in the Great Xia Country who, with a stomp of his foot, could make the Imperial Capital's business world tremble!
Now, he was being dragged in like a dead dog in such a humiliating manner!
How was this possible?!
"Father!"
A young man, whose face bore a seven-tenths resemblance to Liu Chengyun, let out a heart-wrenching roar of anger.
He charged towards the indifferent figure like an enraged leopard, heedless of everything!
"How dare you harm my father!"
"I'll kill you!!!"
Those around him were filled with doubt and alarm.
It was already too late to stop him.
Yaso didn't even lift an eyelid.
He rely raised one hand casually.
His five fingers spread, palm facing forward.
Swoosh—!
A thick, dazzling electric serpent erupted from his palm without warning!
Extrely fast!
The young man's ferocious and crazed expression hadn't even had ti to change.
He was struck squarely in the chest by the violent lightning!
"Uh..."
A short grunt.
The young man's body suddenly stiffened in mid-air, all the hairs on his body standing on end!
Violent electricity raged within him, instantly incinerating his internal organs to charcoal!
A nauseating sll of burning quickly perated the air.
Thud.
The young man fell heavily to the ground, his body still twitching violently and uncontrollably.
His entire body was charred black, and smoke constantly emanated from his mouth.
He was clearly exhaling more than inhaling.
His life or death was unknown.
The entire process was fluid, clean, and decisive.
There wasn't even the slightest delay.
It was as if he had rely swatted away an annoying fly.
At this mont, the expressions of righteous indignation on ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) the faces of all the Liu Family disciples instantly froze.
Replaced by shock and fear.
Too strong!
This man's strength was truly terrifying!
At the head of the table, Old Master of the Liu Family's old face was extrely grim.
He slowly rose from his seat.
Staring intently at the uninvited guest, his voice hoarse, he slowly spoke:
"Who exactly is Your Excellency?"
"Why do you choose to unleash such a massacre on the day of my ninetieth birthday?"
"You injure my son, you kill my grandson!"
"What is your purpose?"
