Chapter 110
Thud!
Long Tianyu could no longer withstand the immense dragon’s might and fell to his knees, shattering two floor tiles.
“Why?” Long Tianyu roared, his face contorted with veins. The true dragon blood in his body couldn’t withstand the dragon’s might released by this bastard, forcing him to kneel!
Could this bastard possess a true dragon body?
As the Child of Destiny, Long Tianyu had his pride. He couldn’t allow himself to kneel to anyone. He tried to stand but couldn’t lift his knees no matter how much strength he used. The immense dragon’s might made his blood tremble, as if a mountain pressed down on him.
Bang!
At this moment, a foot stepped on his face. Feng Yunhai, having been humiliated by Long Tianyu in front of the entire family, was already furious. Now, he only wanted to humiliate Long Tianyu in return, enjoying the feeling of revenge.
“You think you’re so tough? Stand up then! You look like a dog when you kneel!” Feng Yunhai pressed his foot on Long Tianyu’s head, rubbing it back and forth.
“Ah!” Long Tianyu roared hoarsely, filled with extreme humiliation. Being forced to kneel by Yang Chen was bad enough, but now he was being stepped on by this waste, Feng Yunhai. And all this was happening in front of Qian Ning and his mother-in-law. His most humiliating moment was witnessed by the two women he cared about the most.
“Damn you, Feng Yunhai! I will kill you!” Long Tianyu had never suffered such humiliation in his life, even as a son-in-law.
“Still talking back! Your backer is dead, how will you kill me? Do my shoes smell good?” Feng Yunhai’s face was crazed, arrogantly fitting the stereotype of a brainless villain in a son-in-law novel.
[Ding! The host has forced Long Tianyu to kneel, severely damaging his state of mind, losing 2000 points of Providence Luck! The host has gained 2000 VPs.]
[Ding! Feng Yunhai stepped on Long Tianyu, severely damaging his state of mind, losing 2000 points of Providence Luck! The host has gained 2000 VPs.]
Yang Chen raised an eyebrow. Not bad, he had harvested 4000 VPs in one go. This was a big haul. Feng Yunhai’s assistance as a lackey was quite useful.
At this moment, Feng Qian Ning, seeing Long Tianyu being stepped on, felt a twinge of pity. After all, he was her nominal husband. Although they had no real contact in over ten years, they were at least ordinary friends. Feng Qian Ning looked at her mother, seeing no intention to intervene. She knew that after Long Tianyu’s offense against the Xuantian Sect and the mysterious half-step Soul Transformation cultivator being killed, even her mother didn’t dare to say anything.
Feng Qian Ning turned to Yang Chen, hesitated, and tentatively said, “Your Highness, Tianyu has already been punished for his disrespect. Could you spare him this time?”
Yang Chen glanced at Feng Qian Ning and smiled warmly. “Brother Yunhai, Long Tianyu is, after all, Miss Qian Ning’s nominal husband. Let’s give Miss Qian Ning some face and also withdraw your foot off his face.”
Yang Chen’s words made Feng Yunhai stop, but Long Tianyu still couldn’t stand up. The pressure from the dragon’s might still held him down.
“Thank you, Your Highness!” Feng Qian Ning’s eyes sparkled with joy. She hadn’t expected Yang Chen to let Tianyu go just because of her tentative request.
“Miss Qian Ning, you’re welcome. We were having a pleasant conversation earlier, so I must give you face.” Yang Chen smiled warmly, like a perfect gentleman, starkly contrasting his earlier ruthless demeanor when he killed the Tenth stage Nascent Soul cultivator. A blush appeared on Feng Qian Ning’s pale cheeks, and she felt a bit shy, unable to look Yang Chen in the eyes directly.
Seeing this, Feng Yuwan was delighted. It seemed the Holy Son was quite pleased with her daughter. She gave Feng Qian Ning a meaningful look. Feng Qian Ning understood her mother’s signal. Normally, she would have been resistant, but now she naturally raised a cup of wine and said, “Your Highness, thank you for not holding a grudge against Tianyu. I offer you a toast on his behalf to apologize.”
“Sure!” Yang Chen didn’t refuse.
He raised his cup and clinked it with hers, then both of them drank it down in one go. Seeing that the Holy Son bore no ill will towards the Feng family, the atmosphere in the hall relaxed significantly. Several Feng family elders began to chat with the elders of the Xuantian Sect. However, Long Tianyu remained on his knees, a clear footprint on his face, looking out of place amidst the jovial atmosphere in the hall.
“Damn bastards!” Long Tianyu growled softly. “I will kill you all!”
His eyes were filled with rage and hatred. Today was supposed to be the day he showcased his true self to Qian Ning, revealing his origins from the Central Continent and his true dragon bloodline, proving himself a peerless genius. Instead, he was forced to kneel on the ground, unable to stand, watching his wife and the man who humiliated him conversing and drinking together. And worse, his wife’s face was blushing with shyness.
“Yang Chen, I swear I will kill you! I will tear you to pieces!” Long Tianyu was furious.
[Ding! The host continues to force Long Tianyu to kneel and chat with his wife, Feng Qian Ning, damaging Long Tianyu’s state of mind, making him lose 1000 points of Providence Luck. The host has gained 1000 VPs.]
After the banquet, Yang Chen and Feng Yuwan went to a separate hall.
“Holy Son, the master of the Xuantian Sect should have informed you about our families’ plan to unite through marriage,” Feng Yuwan, dressed in palace attire, with a full and mature figure, spoke with a melodious voice.
“Yes,” Yang Chen nodded. “My master did mention it before I came.”
“What do you think of my daughter?” Feng Yuwan smiled, her eyes shimmering.
“Miss Qian Ning is excellent,” Yang Chen replied, “but she is already married.”
Hearing this, Feng Yuwan immediately said, “Holy Son, don’t worry. Qian Ning’s marriage with Long Tianyu is just in name only. Although they have been married for over ten years, they have always kept their distance. As long as you are willing, I can ensure that Long Tianyu, this son-in-law, is expelled from our Feng family!”
Her voice was somewhat urgent. After witnessing the strength of the Holy Son today, she was deeply shocked. An Eighth stage Nascent Soul cultivator possessing power surpassing that of an ordinary Soul Transformation cultivator was unheard of. Moreover, the Xuantian Sect and that terrifying woman, Zhan Lingshuang, stood behind him. With his support, her position as city lord would be almost certain.
However, Yang Chen shook his head. “Elder Feng, there’s no need to force this. Miss Qian Ning and Long Tianyu have been married for over ten years; why break them apart? My principle has always been to break ten temples rather than break one marriage.”
“This?” Feng Yuwan frowned slightly, not understanding Yang Chen’s intention.
“Holy Son, if our families unite through marriage, the influence of the Xuantian Sect in the Falling Snow Mountains will greatly increase. The Ice and Snow City is a top-tier power, and Qian Ning possesses the Ice Phoenix bloodline. With your dragon blood, you two would be a perfect match!”
Feng Yuwan thought Yang Chen was looking down on her family, so she hurriedly explained.
But Yang Chen waved his hand. “Elder Feng, you also possess the Ice Phoenix bloodline. Therefore, the union doesn’t necessarily have to involve Miss Qian Ning, who is already married.”
“Huh?” Feng Yuwan was stunned. She frowned slightly and asked, “Holy Son, what do you mean?”
Yang Chen turned, looking into her charming eyes, and a smile curved his lips. “Elder Feng, what I mean is, aren’t you also unmarried?”
