"You were invited to the Kings' Banquet today, and all attendees are geniuses of the Giant Spirit Realm from Tianyun Kingdom. What a thick face you have, a mere Heavenly Origin Realm cultivator, daring to sneak in and pass yourself off as one of us!"
Crown Prince Yamano Ichiro of the Eastern Isles looked at Ling Fan with disdain.
Behind him.
Kou Wei smiled triumphantly, hands on his hips, head held high, looking smug.
"You useless trash, you think you're so capable? Let's see how you get out of this!"
Seeing Kou Wei's smug expression, Ling Fan quickly understood that this was Kou Wei's doing.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
At this moment.
All eyes turned to him.
Seeing that Ling Fan's cultivation was only at the Heavenly Origin Realm, the other geniuses began to discuss him with contempt.
"I really didn't notice. Who is this person? How did he get in?"
"Heh, this kid has a thick skin. Does he think that by sneaking into the Kings' Banquet, he can be on equal footing with us Giant Spirit Realm geniuses? A trash is trash, no matter how much he tries to gild himself."
"Kid, get out of here quickly! Don't disgrace yourself by being here!"
"Scram, scram, scram! Don't lower our standards by being here. This isn't a place for trash like you."
"Wait, look, this trash is sitting so close to the astonishing Lan Xueyi. What's their relationship?"
Just as everyone was wondering.
Kou Wei deliberately said loudly, "This trash is called Ling Fan, and he's Lan Xueyi's husband! It's truly a case of a beautiful flower being stuck in cow dung! Everyone, aren't you furious?"
"Whoosh!"
As soon as Kou Wei said this, the entire venue erupted in an uproar.
No one had expected that Lan Xueyi, who had shone so brightly at the Kings' Banquet, would be married to someone so utterly unpresentable.
Immediately, many geniuses' eyes burned with jealousy, their aggressive gazes seeming as if they wanted to devour Ling Fan.
"There's no justice! Damn it! Such a talented and beautiful peerless lady married a good-for-nothing. Isn't this a waste of heaven's gifts?"
"Damn it, why should such trash be able to marry the goddess in my heart! He's not worthy of her! This is a desecration of my goddess. I just want to kill this kid right now!"
"Son of a bitch, I want to tear this kid apart too, to vent my hatred!"
"I now understand why this trash was able to sneak in. He's a gigolo! He still has the nerve to sit here. He should be squatting on the ground like a dog, which would be more fitting for his status!"
For a time.
The crowd was incensed.
With the instigation of Kou Wei and the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles, Ling Fan immediately became the target of public criticism.
Even the Sixth Prince showed a hint of disappointment in his eyes and shook his head.
Clearly, he felt it was a great pity that such a stunning beauty as Lan Xueyi had married a good-for-nothing.
"Heh, you have your day too!"
Kou Wei's face was flushed with pride and smugness.
"Cousin, he also stole one of my Iron-Winged Mountain Eagles. I want him to pay it back double!"
"Mm."
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles nodded.
"Kid, you first stole my cousin Kou Wei's demonic pet, and then you overstepped your bounds by sneaking into the Kings' Banquet. His Highness the Sixth Prince is benevolent and magnanimous and won't quibble with you. However, as a follower of His Highness the Sixth Prince, I must uphold His Highness's dignity, and I cannot let you off so easily."
"I'll give you a way out. First, give your wife to us brothers as compensation for stealing his demonic pet. Second, I want you to crawl out on all fours like a dog to uphold the dignity of the Kings' Banquet!!"
"If you do as I say, I will spare your dog life. Otherwise, I will make you perish here today!"
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles' words were extremely venomous.
This was intended to completely humiliate Ling Fan, making him unable to show his face for the rest of his life.
None of the geniuses spoke up for Ling Fan.
Instead, they all watched with amusement as the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles pushed Ling Fan step by step into a corner.
The Sixth Prince said nothing.
He clearly tacitly approved of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles' actions.
"You're going too far! Do you think I, Lan Xueyi, am just a weak woman and cannot kill people!"
Xueyi stood up in anger, a chilling killing intent erupting from her.
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles' insult to Ling Fan made her even more furious than if he had insulted her.
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles shook his head contemptuously and looked at Ling Fan, saying, "You good-for-nothing really aren't a man. Do you only dare to hide behind a woman and not even dare to say a harsh word? You truly make me look down on you!"
"Hahahaha!"
Kou Wei burst into wild laughter.
The other geniuses from Tianyun Kingdom also roared with laughter, their eyes filled with disdain and mockery.
Facing the coercion of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles and the ridicule of the crowd.
Ling Fan's expression remained as calm as ever.
He slightly raised his eyelids and cast a cold glance at the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles and Kou Wei.
He said faintly:
"You are the one who is about to die without knowing it. Kneel down now, and I will leave your brothers with intact corpses. Otherwise, I will make your souls and bodies be utterly destroyed."
Boom!
As Ling Fan's words fell.
The entire assembly was stunned.
After a brief moment of surprise, another burst of laughter erupted.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious! This little Heavenly Origin Realm trash dares to threaten the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles? Does he know the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles' strength? He's close to the late stage of the Giant Spirit Realm! The Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles could crush him with a single little finger, yet he dares to threaten him!"
"Heh, this trash must be cornered like a dog, he's even spewing threats! Who gave him the courage?"
"Trash is trash. If he had endured this humiliation, he might have saved his life. But he insisted on having the last word, which only gives the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles a reason to kill him! Utterly foolish, he's as good as dead!"
Amidst the laughter, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles' narrow eyes also showed a mocking smile. He said, "Tsk tsk, you've scared me to death. I'm so afraid. I'm coveting your wife. Please, let me see how you will make my soul and body be utterly destroyed!"
"Damn it! You lowly worm, are you done? You insect-like creature, how dare you insult Venerable Ling!"
Before Ling Fan could make a move.
Toad couldn't hold back any longer.
It stood on its hind legs, its body rapidly growing to thirty feet. Its entire body shone with a silvery light, and a demonic aura of a Demon Venerable instantly enveloped the entire Lingyin Courtyard.
All the geniuses were startled.
Good heavens.
This trash actually has a Demon Venerable accompanying him?
It seems they misjudged him. Does this trash have some extraordinary background?
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Isles was also startled but quickly regained his composure.
This was because he had a trump card.
Kou Wei had already informed him that Ling Fan had a Demon Venerable by his side.
The reason he dared to provoke Ling Fan was that he had the Sixth Prince as his backer, so he was not worried.
As expected.
The Sixth Prince frowned slightly.
He moved his finger.
Deep within the Lingyin Courtyard, an earth-shattering pressure of a Condensing Core Realm Martial Venerable erupted.
A powerful and peerless figure appeared. With a casual palm strike, rolling spiritual energy transformed into a colossal hand that reached out to grab the Toad.
A Martial Venerable expert from Tianyun Kingdom had appeared!
