"Patriarch."
Chen Huo had a look of reverence on his face. He didn't even dare to look at the figure at the head of the table.
"Chen Huo, who exactly launched a sneak attack on the Young Lord?"
"How dare you launch a sneak attack on our Young Master! You're simply looking down on our Chen Family! We must avenge you!"
"Chen Huo, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and say it! "
The upper echelons of the Chen Clan in the hall spoke up when they saw the Clan Head's gloomy expression.
Although Chen Tiandao had many children, Chen Peng was the one he doted on the most. Even though Chen Peng's talent was average, the family head did not hesitate to spend a shocking amount of resources to push Chen Peng's rank to Rank-5!
It was precisely because of Chen Tiandao's pampering that Chen Peng looked down on everyone else. However, the people he had offended usually did not dare to act impudently out of respect for the Chen Clan. As for those who were secretly dissatisfied with him, they did not dare to act recklessly due to the fact that Chen Peng had a rank five follower with him.
No one had expected that not far from the Chen Clan's territory, Chen Peng would actually suffer such a calamity!
Everyone could see that the Patriarch was on the verge of exploding with rage.
"Sneak attack?"
Chen Huo was slightly taken aback. Only now did he remember that he hadn't clearly stated in his message. At that time, he was afraid that Feng Hao would secretly chase after him. Because of the urgency of the situation, he only told the family head about Chen Peng's cultivation being crippled.
"Patriarch … It wasn't a sneak attack. That lord's strength is unfathomable!"
Chen Huo knew that he wouldn't be able to escape responsibility, but he hoped that this matter would attract the attention of the Chen Clan, so he braced himself and spoke.
Chen Peng seemed to have also thought of how terrifying Feng Hao was. His face turned pale, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
Everyone in the hall frowned when they saw this. Obviously, they were displeased by his behavior.
"Hmph, unfathomable?"
Chen Tiandao let out a cold snort, the anger in his eyes almost materialized and gushed out.
As a sixth rank cultivator, even though he wasn't the most powerful being on the Hongling Continent, he had seen even Monarchs before. In his opinion, the so-called unfathomable Monarch was just his follower's eyesight being too low.
"A Rank-6 has attacked Peng 'er?"
Chen Tiandao suppressed the fury in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
"Should … should be!"
Chen Huo didn't dare to hide anything. He immediately told them everything that happened in the sky above Mu City.
"A divine ability that can destroy you with a wave of my hand?"
"In any case, Chen Huo is a Rank-5 powerhouse, and he's far from what a Rank-5 like Mu Lingheng can compare to. When did the Mu family get such a thick and solid thigh?"
"Even a regular Rank-6 wouldn't be able to do this, right? Chen Huo, are you exaggerating? "
When Chen Huo finished speaking, an uproar instantly sounded out in the hall. All the higher-ups of the Chen Clan had extremely unsightly expressions. However, most of the higher-ups of the Chen Clan felt that this matter was not very trustworthy.
After all, in the southwest region, anyone with a bit of strength would have heard of the Chen Clan's Young Master. Who would dare to do such a thing under the Chen Clan's nose?
"Clan Head, Elders, I did not lie at all. Moreover, in my opinion, that Lord's strength is far from that simple."
Chen Huo replied. Even though he knew that these words would boost the morale of others and diminish his own prestige, every time he thought of Feng Hao, he would feel extremely fearful in his heart. Thus, he did not dare to conceal anything.
Chen Tiandao frowned when he saw Chen Huo's expression.
Since he had arranged for Chen Peng to be his bodyguard, he naturally trusted Chen Huo a lot. Although Chen Huo's words sounded a little exaggerated in his opinion, Chen Tiandao also understood that Chen Huo would definitely not deliberately exaggerate in order to shirk responsibility.
When they saw the flickering light in the Clan Head's eyes, the hall fell into silence.
Could it be that what Chen Huo said was true?
"Clan Head, please allow this old man to go over and capture the scoundrel."
After pondering for a moment, a white-haired old man suddenly stood out from below the seat of honor and spoke in a low voice.
"Grand Elder is a Peak Rank-5. In the entire southwest region, no one is a match for him."
"But Chen Huo said that that fellow is a Rank-6 …"
"Hmph, how can we believe everything he says?"
When the old man spoke, an uproar once again sounded out in the hall.
Obviously, most of the powerhouses did not believe what Chen Huo said. Even if they did not expose him, they still questioned him.
"Shut up!"
When he heard the clamor in the surroundings, Chen Tiandao frowned and shouted in a low voice.
When he finished speaking, the higher-ups of the Chen Clan in the hall immediately fell silent, and numerous gazes looked at Chen Tiandao.
"Second Elder, Third Elder, bring Peng 'er down and see if he can restore his Origin."
Chen Tiandao glanced at Chen Peng with disappointment and said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
When they heard this, the two elders immediately stood up and supported Chen Peng as they walked out.
"Father, you must kill that fellow!"
Chen Peng suddenly returned to his senses and shouted in a stern voice.
Even though Chen Tiandao did not reply, the coldness in his eyes caused the temperature in the entire hall to suddenly drop.
Even the higher-ups of the Chen Clan felt a bone-piercing chill.
They knew that the Clan Head was furious!
"Follow me to Mu City!"
Chen Tiandao shouted in a low voice as his figure moved and soared into the sky.
When they saw this, everyone was slightly stunned. Obviously, they did not expect that Chen Tiandao would actually intend to go personally.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
After being stunned for a moment, the higher-ups of the Chen Clan did not hesitate at all. They all soared into the sky and followed Chen Tiandao as they quickly flew in the direction of Mu City.
Countless people in the city bowed sincerely when they saw the commotion in the sky.
Many of them were secretly guessing what major event had happened that even Chen Tiandao had been alerted.
…
Mu City.
"Clan Head, bad news!"
The Grand Elder looked anxious as he quickly flew to the pavilion where the Clan Head was.
"The Chen Clan is here?"
Mu Lingheng's voice was heard. In the next moment, he appeared next to the Grand Elder and asked.
"Clan Head, you know about it?"
The Grand Elder said.
"Hmph, knowing Chen Tiandao's character, how could he just sit back and watch when his beloved son was crippled?"
Mu Lingheng rubbed the area between his eyebrows, feeling a headache coming on. He asked, "Who did Chen Tiandao send this time?"
"Patriarch … Patriarch Chen has come personally with fifteen elders."
The Grand Elder did not dare to hide anything and answered truthfully.
When he heard this, even Mu Lingheng could not help but tremble. His eyes were filled with seriousness.
Almost all the elders of the Chen Clan were Rank-5!
Fifteen Rank-5 martial artists were enough to easily destroy the entire Mu City!
More importantly, Chen Tiandao, a Rank-6 martial artist, had come personally!
"Let's go and tell Senior Feng Hao about this!"
Mu Lingheng said almost without any hesitation.
