"What, not convinced? Let me tell you, we are from the Liu Family, a hidden clan in martial Dao World of Province A. Do you even know what a hidden clan is? It's a martial arts family that's much stronger than those so-called Six Great Sects of Jiangbei and the Five Great Families Along the River!"

The young man looked around arrogantly, "I see your strengths are not too bad, the strongest among you has already reached the peak of the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm, haven't you? Stuck and unable to take the next step? With guidance from our two ancestors, stepping into the Venerable Realm would be a breeze for you!"

After saying this, a middle-aged man beside him walked towards Li Tianchong, "Move aside quickly! It is an honor for your Jiang Family that our Liu Family is willing to make use of your clan to enter society. If your family weren't the magnates of Jincheng's business world, barely qualifying to be used by us, do you think we'd lower ourselves to visit your trashy clan? Move it!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man reached out to grab Li Tianchong's collar.

"I'd advise you not to touch him!" Jiang Chen's eyes turned icy as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Not touch him? Today I will, and what can you do about it? You have to lend your house whether you want to or not!" The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment, then scoffed and continued to reach for Li Tianchong.

A cold light flashed in Li Tianchong's eyes, and just as he was about to act, a figure stood between him and the middle-aged man, blocking the latter's hand.

Jiang Yuqing frowned and said sternly, "Mr. Liu Wanjiang, what are you doing? We agreed to come here and discuss things properly with my cousin, why are you being so aggressive?"

"Aggressive? Ha ha!"

Liu Wanjiang laughed loudly, "Boy, don't you know? The moment you led us into the gates of the Jiang Family, it's not up to you anymore; I make the rules now!"

"What, what do you mean?" Jiang Yuqing's face changed dramatically as he spoke sharply.

Liu Wanjiang smirked derisively, glanced at several elders, and arrogantly said, "I won't bother with a kid. Who here is Jiang Chen? Given your age, you should understand what it means for a family to make use of your clan, right? After all, your Jiang Family is affiliated with the Chixiao Sect; you understand this much, don't you?"

"I am Jiang Chen!" Jiang Chen spoke lightly.

"What? You're Jiang Chen?!"

"You're Jiang Chen? You're not one of Jiang Yuqing's elders?!"

The people from the Liu Family all stared at Jiang Chen in surprise.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "Of course, I'm not Yuqing's elder; I am his cousin and also the Head of the Jiang Family."

"What? You're the Head of the Jiang Family?!"

"Impossible! Our investigations showed that he manages all of the Jiang Family affairs, how could you possibly be the head?!"

The faces of Liu Wanjiang and his company changed, exclaiming in astonishment.

"Then it only shows how inaccurate your information is!"

Jiang Chen continued calmly, "According to the rules of the hidden clans, if a family head who has direct dealings with the martial Dao World personallly welcomes you after your intentions are made clear, it signifies that the clan accepts your request to use their name. However, I'm sorry, the one who brought you here was Yuqing, not me, so... my Jiang Family refuses your request to be used!"

"Refuse?! You dare to refuse us?" Liu Wanjiang's face darkened as he glared at Jiang Chen.

Boy, don't think that just because your Jiang Family is affiliated with the Chixiao Sect, our Liu Family wouldn't dare to touch you!"

An elder standing beside Jiang Chen fixed a cold stare on him, "I am the ancestor of the Liu Family, Liu Zhanting, and this is my brother Liu Zhanguo. Go ask that guy Chi Xiao from the Chixiao Sect, does he dare to battle us brothers? If you know what's good for you, immediately hand over the clan to us. Once we are done with our experiences, we'll give it back to you; otherwise, don't blame us for not showing mercy. My grandson Liu Tingwen is quite suitable to be the Head of your Jiang Family!"

"You're planning on seizing our family?!" Jiang Yuqing exclaimed in surprise as if he had heard the most ridiculous thing in the world.

"How dare you!"

"Insolence!"

Buzzing sounds!

The First Elder, Second Elder, Elder Master Jiang, Jiang Minglong, and Yan Hu all erupted in anger, simultaneously bellowing as their auras exploded, fiercely pressing down on Liu Zhanting.

"Heh heh, three at the peak of the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm, one in the mid-Semi Venerable Realm, and one Innate Grandmaster dare to exert their aura pressure on me? You truly are a bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well!" Liu Zhanting scoffed coldly.

Buzz!

A powerful and elusive aura emerged, fiercely colliding with the auras of the five elders.

"Venerable Realm powerhouse?!"

"Is it a Venerable Realm powerhouse?!"

Both the First Elder and the Second Elder's complexions changed, crying out in alarm.

Elder Master Jiang's face also underwent a drastic change, and Jiang Minglong immediately took out his cellphone, ready to call Chixiao Sect for help.

Boom!

Several auras clashed, unleashing a violent burst of Qi Force that threatened to overturn the entire banquet hall!

Hum!

A faint yet gentle aura appeared, enveloping the savage Qi Force.

Buzz! Buzz!

The violent Qi Force trembled a few times before dissipating into nothingness!

"You, you..." Liu Zhanting and the others were drastically shocked, their eyes wide with terror as they looked towards Li Tianchong, who was exuding the aura.

"Liu Zhanting? That name sounds a bit familiar!" Li Tianchong furrowed his brows slightly and turned to Liu Zhanting, "Have we met before?"

"May I ask which family the senior hails from?"

By this time, cold sweat had already appeared on Liu Zhanting's forehead.

The moment Li Tianchong's aura exploded, his heart shuddered violently.

Although the aura emitted by Li Tianchong was very gentle, he could feel its immense strength—it was definitely beyond his capability to contend with!

"Elder, what's wrong?"

A young man, Liu Tingwen, looked at Liu Zhanting with a puzzled expression, not understanding what had happened.

"Shut up!"

Liu Zhanguo, who was beside them, hastily scolded Liu Tingwen and quickly turned his head to bow to Jiang Chen, "Head of the Jiang Family, I apologize for the intrusion. Since the Head of the Jiang Family will not lend support, we will take our leave and not impose."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zhanguo pulled Liu Zhanting, and they headed for the banquet hall exit.

"Did I say you could leave?" Jiang Chen spoke calmly.

Swoosh!

Buzz! Buzz!

In a flash, Fang Tiancheng leaped to the doorway, blocking the way of the Liu family members. Li Tianchong and Fang Tiancheng both erupted with their auras, fiercely pressing down upon the four people from the Liu Family.

Thump! Thump!

Two muffled sounds rang out as the middle-aged man, Liu Wanjiang, and the young man, Liu Tingwen, were immediately pressed to the floor by the force of their auras!

The members of the Jiang Family were all stunned. When they had just sensed that Liu Zhanting was a Venerable Realm powerhouse, worry appeared in the eyes of the First Elder and the others.

Yet, unexpectedly, the other two members of the Liu family ended up prostrate on the ground, and the two who seemed to be powerhouses of the Venerable Realm stood there, not daring to move an inch!

"What are you two seniors doing?"

Liu Zhanguo, facing Fang Tiancheng blocking the door, spoke with an innocent look, "Since the Jiang Family is unwilling, we will leave. Why do the seniors wish to detain us?"
