Gong Rui staggered to his feet after being blown away by Jin Hong's punch. He wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and bellowed at Jin Hong, "Jin Hong, don't slander me. Who said we wanted to destroy the power of Yang Yutian's soul in the divine hall? We just wanted to confirm whether Yang Yutian had died in the depths of the Two World Mountain or not. Instead, you suddenly attacked and injured me. Do you really think that my Gong Family is easy to bully? "
At this point, Gong Rui's aura suddenly changed. He abruptly turned around and shouted, "Where are the men of sacrifice loyal to my Gong Clan?"
With that, the presences of several hundred Godkings erupted from behind him. The several hundred men of sacrifice from the Gong family all stood up and gathered behind Gong Ruize.
It was also these several hundred sacrificial warriors that gave Gong Ruize great confidence. This was because they all knew the formations passed down from the Gong family. With several hundred sacrificial warriors, they could fend off First Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes.
"Jin Hong, I've been sent into the World of the Fallen Beast by the clan. I represent our Gong family. You've attacked me fearlessly and even injured me. You've severely challenged the dignity of our Gong family. I can ignore what happened before, but if you continue to interfere with our matters, don't blame me for ignoring the bigger picture," Gong Rui said coldly. Now that he had emerged from the depths of the Two World Mountain, he was already safe. He believed he no longer needed the help of others, so he naturally became confident.
As for Jin Hong, although his identity as a Grand Exalt's successor made him possess a great status, he had not matured to the point where the Gong family would take him seriously. If Jin Hong did not oppose him proactively, he would naturally show some respect. However, now that Jin Hong had injured him, Gong Rui obviously would not just swallow his anger.
Jin Hong did not become angered by Gong Rui's arrogance at all. His expression did not change at all, but his presence became slightly more powerful. He said indifferently, "You want to ignore the bigger picture? Gong Rui, I won't threaten you. I just want to make one thing clear to you. If you really ruin our plans for your own personal matters, I will kill you without any hesitation. " Jin Hong's words were direct and straightforward, with a resolute determination and a domineering aura.
With that, not only did Gong Rui's expression change, but even the expressions of over half of the prodigies present changed as well.
Over the past few months, all of them had gained some understanding of Jin Hong. As a result, they were extremely clear about Jin Hong's personality. They understood that Jin Hong was not a person who liked to boast. He was serious about everything he said. There was basically no falsehood in his words.
Since he said he wanted to kill Gong Rui, it meant that he really had made up his mind. He was not just trying to scare them.
Ping Yisheng said as well, "Gong Ruize, don't forget your identity. If I remember correctly, the greatest backer of your lineage is a great elder of the Gong family. He's an Eighth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime. Who knows how many great elders the Gong family has, but what's laughable is that even your ancestor can't represent the Gong family, so what right do you have to represent them?"
Ping Yisheng paused before continuing, "To put it bluntly, even if I kill you here, what can your ancestor do to me? Could it be that he still dares to kill me? "
Gong Rui's face paled. He stared at Ping Yisheng coldly. He only stared at him without saying anything.
In terms of status, he was indeed no match for Ping ShengYi, as the greatest backer of his lineage was indeed a great elder of the Gong family. In the Gong family, even great elders had to listen to the arrangements of Grand Primes.
However, Ping Yisheng was the direct disciple of the current sect master of the Emperor Lotus Sword Sect. The current sect master of the Emperor Lotus Sword Sect might not have been very powerful, but his master was a Grand Prime of the Emperor Lotus Sword Sect.
Gong Rui's ancestor was an Eighth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime of the Gong family, while Ping Yisheng's ancestor was a Grand Prime. They were indeed incomparable in terms of status.
"Gong Rui alone is indeed not enough to deter you, but what if we join in as well?" With that, Kong Feiying, Chu Jie, Zhou Zhi, and Zhao Wenbin all stepped forward. They stood in a row with Gong Rui.
More than half of the dozens of geniuses present were waiting to watch a good show. As for the personal grudges between Gong Ruize and Yang Yutian, as well as the confrontation with Jin Hong and the others, these geniuses were not interested in it and did not want to get involved.
As a result, Gong Rui's group of five stood together. Coupled with the Divine King's sacrificial warriors behind them, they really did form an organisation that could not be underestimated.
Jin Hong's expression didn't change. His gaze swept over Chu Jie, Gong Ruize, Kong Feiying, Zhao Wenbin, and Zhou Zhi, one by one. His gaze, which had always been calm, actually flashed with a cold light at this moment.
"He Qianqian, why don't you leave the divine hall to me for now? I'd like to see who's bold enough to take something from me, "Jin Hong suddenly said to He Qianqian after a moment of silence. His voice had become rather cold.
He Qianqian naturally would not refuse. She agreed to let Jin Hong take care of the divine hall. If she continued to keep it, Chu Jie and the others would insist on taking it. With just her strength alone, it would be difficult for two fists to fight against four hands.
Furthermore, Jin Hong's tone made He Qianqian understand that he was angry. Jin Hong, who had always maintained a calm expression, was angry for the first time.
"Not good, not good, not good …" Right at that moment, a voice filled with panic rang out. A sacrificial warrior who had gone out to scout hastily flew back. When he saw Jin Hong's group, he immediately said, "Not good, the Hundred Holy City has been completely occupied by the Darkstar race. Our people stationed in the Hundred Holy City have all been killed."
That news was like a heavy bomb, shaking everyone's heart. All the prodigies' expression changed greatly.
Although they already knew that something had most likely happened to the Hundred Holy City, they did not expect it to be so bad. The Hundred Holy City had been occupied by the Darkstar race, and all their people stationed in the Hundred Holy City had been killed? Could it be that the Darkstar race was declaring war on them?
"This … this is impossible. We don't have much enmity with the Darkstar race. Why would they do this?"
Many prodigies were dumbfounded. They did not dare to believe such a fact. Although they were mentally prepared, they did not expect it to be so serious.
