Yu Daochen grinned when Chen Hua agreed, secretly pleased. This guy's strength was at most the peak of the Earth Rank, while he himself was at least Heaven Rank.
Dealing with a weakling like him would be more than enough.
"Alright, Young Master Chen, do you want to call the six people behind you to join as well? So I won't be accused of bullying you," Yu Daochen taunted, looking at the six people behind Chen Hua.
While he could handle Chen Hua alone, facing the six peak Earth Rank experts behind him would be quite challenging.
Given Chen Hua's arrogant personality, a few words of mockery would surely lure him in.
As expected, Chen Hua scoffed upon hearing Yu Daochen's taunt, "No need. I'm enough to deal with you alone."
Yu Daochen was delighted that Chen Hua had taken the bait and said with a smile, "Good, then let's begin."
With that, Yu Daochen stepped aside. Just as Chen Hua was about to follow, one of the men behind him stopped him, "Young Master, this might not be wise. After all, Yu Daochen is a master who has climbed into the Heaven Rank. Isn't this a bit too risky?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Hua glared fiercely, "What are you afraid of? I don't believe Yu Daochen is truly as formidable as the rumors say."
Under normal circumstances, Chen Hua would have considered it carefully. However, with disciples from other sects watching from the stands, backing out now would mean losing all face.
Chen Hua followed Yu Daochen to an open space nearby. Just as the two were about to clash, a voice intervened, stopping them.
"Both of you, stop!"
Yu Daochen and Chen Hua looked in unison, seeing three figures that had appeared on the spectator stands from who knows when.
Silence fell over the entire venue, and all eyes turned to the three individuals.
Yu Daochen sneered. With such presence, it could only be these three.
On the spectator stands, Hao Tian Quan, Tang Jun Sheng, and Forgetful Immortal Aunt all looked towards Yu Daochen and Chen Hua on the martial stage.
Hao Tian Quan cursed inwardly.
"Why is it this little menace again? And this time, it's the Chen family from Miao Jiang, known for their powerful witchcraft and curses."
If both sides were to fight, it would be difficult to offend either, especially since the Chen family had a Black Rank expert backing them.
Hao Tian Quan glanced at Tang Jun Sheng beside him, seemingly seeking his decision.
Tang Jun Sheng, standing nearby, understood Hao Tian Quan's intention and chose to feign ignorance.
Tang Jun Sheng was nonchalant at the moment. Seeing that Zhang Xiao Qiang was fine, he couldn't be bothered with anything else. After all, Hao Tian Quan was the chief host of the Fengtian Grand Assembly.
Such a thankless task should be left to him.
Hao Tian Quan, helpless, turned his gaze to Forgetful Immortal Aunt on the other side.
When Forgetful Immortal Aunt saw Hao Tian Quan looking at her, she politely nodded but said nothing.
Forgetful Immortal Aunt felt the same. As a woman, with two men beside her, it was not her place to make the decision.
Seeing that both of them were adopting an attitude of indifference, Hao Tian Quan felt frustrated.
However, despite his hundredfold reluctance, he had no choice but to intervene, as he was the chief host of the Fengtian Grand Assembly.
It was truly like a mute eating bitter herbs, unable to express his suffering.
This kind of thankless job had to be done by him in the end.
Hao Tian Quan looked at Yu Daochen and Chen Hua below the stands and said, "Both of you, this is the Fengtian Grand Assembly after all. Whatever grievances you have, please settle them after the assembly concludes."
Yu Daochen understood that teaching Chen Hua a lesson now was impossible, so he nodded in agreement, "Since Master Hao has said so, then it can only be this way."
Yu Daochen said this while shaking his head with an expression of great regret.
Although there would be plenty of opportunities to deal with Chen Hua later, this was the time to show respect to Hao Tian Quan.
Hao Tian Quan on the spectator stands was surprised that Yu Daochen agreed so readily this time.
Chen Hua, seeing Hao Tian Quan speak, snorted, "Uncle Hao, Yu Daochen publicly provoked my Chen family. If we just let it go like this, it might be unacceptable."
Chen Hua had also heard of Yu Daochen's past incident of openly challenging Hao Tian Quan.
Since Yu Daochen could disregard Hao Tian Quan's authority, why couldn't Chen Hua?
Hao Tian Quan's expression darkened as Chen Hua completely disregarded his words, "Then, Nephew Chen, does this mean you are not giving me, Hao Tian Quan, any face?"
Chen Hua cupped his hands, "This junior wouldn't dare. Although my Chen family does not meddle in martial world affairs, we are not to be bullied by just anyone. After all, my father is still alive."
Hao Tian Quan felt a surge of anger as Chen Hua used his father to pressure him.
"Little Hua, even if your father, Chen Shan He, were here, he would still give me some face," Hao Tian Quan said, his tone calm but carrying a hint of coldness.
Chen Hua swallowed nervously, intimidated. After all, this was a Black Rank expert, universally acknowledged as the strongest in the world.
If he were truly angered, even his father might not dare to say anything.
Chen Hua quickly replied respectfully, "Since Uncle Hao has spoken, this junior will follow your wishes."
Yu Daochen chuckled inwardly, "If you don't have the skill, don't take on the job. Not everyone can afford to provoke Hao Tian Quan."
Seeing Yu Daochen's schadenfreude, Chen Hua felt a surge of anger.
