1144: Chapter 1145: eting the Master!
Duanmu Chang shivered slightly as he glanced at Xiao Chen.
Could these families be here for Xiao Chen?
Impossible.
Xiao Chen could have secretly beco a bigshot in Jianghu, but how could he possibly be connected to the thirty-five Aristocratic Clans and over a hundred top-tier families of Chaoyang City?
“Please, co in!”
Although these families had been dealt with by the Yanzi Sect, a lean cal is still bigger than a horse, and there was more than one of them.
Their combined strength was still much greater than that of the Duanmu Family in Chaoyang City.
Soon, all the people outside had co in.
Arranged in the order of the Black Gold Aristocrats, Gold Aristocrats, Silver Aristocrats, Bronze Aristocrats, and first-tier families, there were hundreds of them.
“Patriarch Lin, thank you all for gracing us with your presence.
Our family eting was not ant to invite you as it’s just an internal eting, but your presence is an honor for the Duanmu Family of Chaoyang City.”
Duanmu Chang stepped forward with a smile.
A family eting naturally ant a eting of the clan.
Though so significant guests would be invited, it was never intended for so many people.
So Duanmu Chang was puzzled.
Why had these people co?
“What does a family eting of the Duanmu Clan have to do with ?”
Patriarch Lin disdainfully said.
“Indeed, Duanmu Chang, you think too highly of yourself.
We’re not here for you.”
Another mber of a Black Gold Aristocrat Family also spoke coldly.
“Don’t be too presumptuous, today is a grand day for the Duanmu Clan, are you here to cause trouble?”
Duanmu Chang had a temper too, especially since these families were no longer as formidable as they once were.
“Cause trouble?
Do you think you’re worthy?”
Patriarch Lin looked at Duanmu Chang sarcastically, then pushed him aside and walked towards Xiao Chen.
Everyone knelt down, shouting in unison, “The thirty-five Aristocratic Clans and one hundred and twenty first-tier families of Chaoyang City pay homage to the master!”
What!
If the previous kneeling by Jianghu folk was a severe blow to the Duanmu Clan.
Then this ti, the kneeling of hundreds of families was like hamring hard on their already swollen wounds.
Even though these were declining families…
These people still held significant sway.
In Chaoyang City, their words carried weight.
Now, they were kneeling before Xiao Chen, debasing themselves.
Duanmu Chang and Duanmu Lin began to tremble.
They felt trouble approaching.
Although they still didn’t know Xiao Chen’s identity, it was clear that no ordinary person could receive the worship of so many Jianghu bigwigs and over a hundred families.
What exactly was his background?
“Splutter!”
Duanmu Chang could no longer hold it in and spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling dizzy.
What exactly was happening?
Was this all a nightmare today?
The room was filled with hurried breathing, even the ticking of sweat droplets falling could be heard.
Even with the Duanmu Clan’s imnse power, seeing Xiao Chen like this, they were still incredibly shocked.
Why would such a person be abandoned?
“Chen’er, you have such a significant status, why didn’t you tell us?
It wouldn’t have led to so many misunderstandings.”
Duanmu Lin shalessly said.
“Ha!
Haven’t I told you?
How co I rember ntioning it more than once?
But it seems like you never took it seriously.”
Xiao Chen spoke sarcastically, “You idiots always thought I was flaunting your Duanmu Family’s na to swindle everywhere, didn’t you?
Now, do you think I need to?
You said I wasn’t worthy to enter the Duanmu Family.
Now, is it that I’m not good enough for the Duanmu Family, or the Duanmu Family is not good enough for ?”
Listening to Xiao Chen’s words, the hearts of everyone in the Duanmu Clan pounded as if they had installed accelerators, crazily beating.
So who were faint-hearted had already fainted on the spot.
Others felt as though a terrifying demon had firmly grasped their hearts, making it hard for them to breathe, their bodies trembling all over.
What fate awaited them?
They did not know.
“Hmph, even so, do you think you can suppress the Duanmu Clan?
These efforts are not enough.”
The Elder stood firm and snorted coldly.
“Not enough, you say?
Then let’s continue.”
Xiao Chen smiled.
This smile, however, clenched the Elder’s heart fiercely.
The next mont, a bustling noise arose from outside.
“One of the eight major factions, Yanzi Sect Master Liu Hong has arrived, together with the four great Wang Yans and the eighteen Yun Yans!”
Boom!
It was like undergoing tribulation, thunderclap after thunderclap, each more astonishing than the last.
Thirty-five aristocratic families of Chaoyang City had fallen.
But not the Yanzi Sect, far from it; it had grown even more terrifying than before.
The four Elders trembled.
There was no doubt, this Yanzi Sect Master Liu Hong must have co for Xiao Chen.
As expected.
Liu Hong, the four great Wang Yans, and the eighteen Yun Yans all walked up to Xiao Chen, knelt on one knee, and cried out, “Boss!”
Though they were ntally prepared,
seeing this scene, hearing these words, the people of the Duanmu Clan wilted.
The eight major factions, they were on equal footing with the top ten aristocratic families, even stronger in combat power.
Absolutely not sothing the Bronze Aristocrat Family could contend with.
Here they were, kneeling down to Xiao Chen, the son-in-law who walked into the family, even calling him boss.
Could it be that the owner of the Yanzi Sect and the Yanzi Sect Business Group was actually Xiao Chen?
No way!
Impossible!
Wasn’t he just a despised wretch?
Wasn’t he the man from Chaoyang City’s Duanmu Family who needed to be disposed of as soon as possible?
A son-in-law, a waste, a do-nothing gaining such high regard.
The four Elders panicked, looking towards the Duanmu Family of Chaoyang City.
Their hearts were filled with indignation.
“Duanmu Chang, what is going on?
Can you explain?”
The Elder roared.
Just the Yanzi Sect alone was already equivalent to the Duanmu Clan.
Duanmu Chang and Duanmu Lin had called Xiao Chen despicable, low, unworthy of recognition by the Duanmu Family?
What a huge blunder.
What’s worse, they had been trying to kill Xiao Chen at any cost.
No wonder Xiao Chen had called them fools, idiots.
Indeed, they were.
If Duanmu Chang and Duanmu Lin had treated Xiao Chen just a bit better, today’s outco might not have occurred.
If they had soone as exceptional as Xiao Chen, the Duanmu Family could have beco one of the top ten aristocratic families, no, even the first among them.
But now, irreconcilably at odds!
There was no longer any possibility of reconciliation!
These were mortal enemies!
The people of the Duanmu Clan were stunned, unable to say a word.
Half of them here had once called Xiao Chen a wretch.
If Xiao Chen settled scores after autumn, what were they to do?
“How could this be!
How could this be!
I don’t believe, I won’t believe!”
Duanmu Lin collapsed on the ground, seemingly going mad.
At this mont, the scenes that had occurred before replayed in their minds like a slideshow.
Why Young Master Hart had fallen in Xiongcheng, why the thirty-five aristocratic families of Chaoyang City were ultimately subdued.
Why even the Shangguan Family had fallen, why agent 13 had died in the insignificant Xiongcheng.
