"The parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. Father, I understand this principle, but some things can't be forced. Miss Bai just told me that the husband she wants must be a real man with an indomitable spirit." The corners of Shen Lang's mouth curled up into a cold smile. Did this Bai Lingshan really think that she could be arrogant just because she had some good looks? Today, he was going to trample her dignity to the ground. It just so happened that the system had issued a task.
Shenlang's words made everyone look at Bai Lingshan in surprise.
Whoosh! Bai Lingshan's pretty face changed. She didn't expect that the reason she had just used to reject Shenlang would be used to attack her. It was fine to say it in private, but to say it in front of Shen Wuming, it had a different meaning. This was a naked slap in the face. What's more, the Shen Family was not worse than the Bai Family. The most important thing for a force was face. If today's matter was spread out, it would mean that the Bai Family came to break the engagement. This would be a great insult to the Shen Family.
"Ling Shan, is what Shenlang said true?" Bai Zizai asked seriously.
Since things had already come to this, Bai Ling Shan could only speak the truth. She was originally a proud and arrogant person, and it was impossible for her to go back on her words. "That's right, it is indeed what your daughter said. Only those famous young talents are worthy of your daughter, and not some unknown young master from a small family."
Hearing Bai Lingshan's words, Shenlang's smile deepened. Bai Lingshan was really arrogant, but it was exactly what Shenlang wanted. Only in this way could Shenlang have a reason to make a move. Otherwise, if this matter was solved peacefully, how could he complete his task?
Sure enough, Bai Lingshan's arrogant words made everyone's expression change, especially when Shen Wuming heard that he was a young master from a small family. Wasn't that a disguised belittling of the Shen Family? My Shen Clan is a small clan, how powerful is your Bai Clan? What's going on?
"Ling Shan, don't be presumptuous." Bai Zizai angrily rebuked and quickly cupped his fists and said, "Brother Shen, it's my fault for not disciplining her properly. Please forgive me. When I go home, I will teach my naughty daughter a lesson. Don't worry about the marriage, I will keep my promise and let your son marry my daughter."
When Shen Wuming heard Bai Zizai's words, his gloomy face became slightly better. But before he could speak, Shen Lang spoke with a sneer.
"Miss Bai, are you looking down on the Shen Family? Could it be that your Bai Clan is a big clan? "
Bai Lingshan also knew that she had spoken too fast and made a mistake. She originally wanted to belittle Shenlang, but she ended up belittling the Shen Family instead. Now that she heard Shenlang's question, she lost her usual calmness. "Isn't the Shen Family a small family? There are countless families and sects in the twenty-one cities of Jiang District. What does a mere Shen Family amount to? "
"Haha, good. Well said. What does our Shen Family amount to?" Shen Lang laughed out loud. Then, he said in a cold voice, "Then today, I will let you see what a young master from a small family is worth."
As soon as his voice fell, Shenlang suddenly appeared in front of Bai Lingshan. His palm was like a dream as it pressed toward Bai Lingshan's chest.
What happened in an instant made everyone unable to react. How could a fight break out when they were just talking?
However, when they saw that Shenlang had made the first move, both Bai Zizai and Bai Feng showed a disdainful look. Whether Shenlang launched a sneak attack or not, he was asking for humiliation. They knew Bai Lingshan's strength too well. In the entire Jiang City, there were only a few people among the younger generation who could fight against Bai Lingshan. Shenlang was certainly not one of them.
Bai Lingshan was only shocked for a moment before she reacted. "You are courting death!"
With a cold snort, she raised her lily-white hand to meet the attack.
Without the slightest intention of dodging, not to mention that Shenlang was only at the Houtian seventh stage. Even if he was at the peak of the Houtian realm, Bai Lingshan would not put him in her eyes.
Her martial arts were taught to her by a senior who passed by Jiang City when she was a child. He also told her that when she broke through to the Xiantian realm, she should go to the sect to find him. This was already a predetermined sect disciple. Therefore, Bai Lingshan had enough capital to be proud.
Unfortunately, she met Shenlang. His martial arts were not at the seventh stage but at the eighth stage. More importantly, Shenlang practiced the Three Parts Return to Origin Qi, a Heaven level martial arts. In the Zhenwu Continent, there were only a few people who could be as extravagant as Shenlang.
Firmament Palm, Three Parts Return to Origin Qi, one of the three forces of frost, cloud, and wind.
Cloud! Illusory and illusory, like a dream, unfathomable.
Bai Lingshan seemed to meet Shenlang's palm, but it had already deviated from the trajectory.
Shenlang's mouth curved. The essence of Firmament Palm lay in the word illusion. With Bai Lingshan's strength, she simply could not see the attack trajectory of Firmament Palm.
"Puff!" In the blink of an eye, Bai Lingshan was hit in the shoulder by Shenlang's palm and flew out upside down.
"Sister!"
"Ling Shan!"
Two worried voices sounded.
Just as Bai Lingshan was injured and retreated, the door of the reception hall suddenly shattered. Broken wood flew everywhere, and two figures flew out. A majestic aura firmly locked onto Bai Zizai's body. Bai Zizai, who was just about to move, was nailed in place.
Bai Feng's hands quickly waved, blocking the splashing wood. He rushed over and helped Bai Lingshan up.
Shenlang slowly retracted his palm and looked at Bai Lingshan with a smile that did not look like a smile. He lightly said, "Miss Bai, are you satisfied with my strength?"
Bai Lingshan's face turned green and white. She could not help but spit out another mouthful of blood. Her eyes were spitting fire as she stared at Shenlang.
"Enough." Shen Wuming stood up and angrily shouted, "Brother Bai, let's end it here today. As for the marriage, let's go according to the two of them and cancel it."
After saying that, Shen Wuming fiercely glared at Shenlang and turned to leave.
He finally understood that today's scene was all written and acted by Shenlang. From the beginning, Shenlang had the intention of canceling the marriage with Bai Lingshan. Even if Bai Lingshan did not say those words, Shenlang would have thought of other ways to cancel the marriage. It was just that he would not be so extreme.
"Ding Dong!"
"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The reward is 100 Slaughter Points."
Shenlang put his hands behind his back and looked at Bai Zizai and his sons with contempt. He sneered and left with Shen Qing.
"See you at the Four Clans Competition."
An ethereal and dreamy voice came from outside the door.
Xuan Ming Elders withdrew their aura and turned to leave.
Bai Zizai's face was ashen. This time, he had lost all his face when he came to the Shen Family. He did not expect that the inconspicuous Shenlang would suddenly become so powerful. His martial arts were unfathomable and he even had experts protecting him.
The Four Clans Competition was the day of the gathering of the Four Clans of Rivertown. It was also the day when the Four Clans would redistribute their benefits. Every five years, the Four Clans would have a gathering. The Four Clans would each send their outstanding disciples to participate in the competition. The First Clan would receive 50% of Rivertown's benefits and the remaining 50% would be divided equally among the other three clans.
In this way, the First Clan would develop rapidly in the next five years and widen the gap between them and the other three clans.
Shenlang's words when he left meant that they would meet again at the Four Clans Competition.
