Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 935 - 926 Bullying the Weak
Chapter 935: Chapter 926 Bullying the Weak
"Miss Mei, I never expected to see you at this Holy Banquet."
Just as Mo Wangchen was about to walk over and greet her, he saw three young men approaching from behind Mei Suyan.
The speaker was a man dressed in blue luxurious robes, with a jade pendant hanging at his waist, exuding an extraordinary aura.
At first glance, it was clear he was a scion of a noble family!
"You are..."
Beside Mei Suyan stood another woman, whose appearance was not overly stunning, yet still far surpassing ordinary women. It seemed the two were good friends.
Engaged in conversation, upon hearing the voice of the man in luxurious robes from behind, Mei Suyan turned to look, momentarily stunned.
"I am Zhang Shiming. I once accompanied my elders to the Mei Family and was fortunate enough to meet you." Seeing Mei Suyan did not recognize him, the man in luxurious robes appeared slightly awkward, smiling as he spoke.
"Oh, so it’s Brother Zhang. I remember now." Mei Suyan realized, recalling that she had indeed found him somewhat familiar just now.
The Zhang Family, like the Mei Family, had an ancestor in the True Immortal Realm, so their strengths were similar, resulting in a good relationship.
Zhang Shiming was the current heir of the Zhang Family, possessing cultivation at the early stage of the Void Immortal Realm, which was considered quite promising.
"Let me introduce, this is Chen Xujie of the Chen Family, and this other gentleman..."
Zhang Shiming began introducing his companions to Mei Suyan, but before he could say more about the second person, that person stepped forward and cupped his hands toward Mei Suyan, "So this is Miss Mei. I’ve long heard of your reputation as the first beauty of Jinxiu City, and meeting you today confirms your fame is well-deserved."
The man was dressed in luxurious golden clothes, exuding nobility. As he spoke, his eyes gleamed with admiration for Mei Suyan’s appearance, but he quickly composed himself, hiding that fleeting admiration well, "I am Yun Zhong of the Ancient Martial Yun Family."
"The Ancient Martial Yun Family!"
Upon hearing this, Mei Suyan and the woman beside her couldn’t help but be startled, "Greetings, Brother Yun."
Yun Zhong’s name was familiar to them. He was the son of the current Saint Master of the Yun Family, with cultivation reaching the late stage of the Void Immortal Realm, a rare talent among his generation.
The Ancient Martial Families were not comparable to families like the Mei Family. At this moment, in front of Yun Zhong, Mei Suyan became somewhat restrained, afraid of being disrespectful and bringing misfortune to her family.
"Hehe, since the Holy Banquet hasn’t started yet, I wonder if I might have the honor to stroll around Xuan Emperor City with Miss Mei?" Seeing Mei Suyan recognized him, Yun Zhong’s face showed a hint of pride, speaking once more.
"This..."
Mei Suyan frowned slightly. Although the other party appeared courteous, she knew Yun Zhong had a notorious reputation in the Xuanwu Alliance.
He was known for bullying the weak, with many young talents having fallen victim to him in recent years. Rumors also spoke of women being humiliated by him, but due to the Yun Family’s power and Yun Zhong being the Saint Master’s son, no one dared to confront him.
At this moment, Mei Suyan saw something unsettling in his gaze, sensing no good intentions behind his invitation.
"The Xuan Emperor Palace belongs to the Holy Emperor and is not a place to wander. Brother Yun, your kind offer..."
Before Mei Suyan could speak, the woman beside her stood up first.
However, before she could finish, Yun Zhong slightly turned his gaze, speaking indifferently, "I invited Miss Mei, not you. Besides, the Yun Family is among the Ancient Martial Families; if I wish to stroll in this palace, do you think I would be denied?"
Upon hearing this, not only did the woman frown, but Mei Suyan also frowned, "What does Brother Yun mean by this? I came with Sister Ning, and naturally, I should accompany her. Since you did not invite her, then I’m afraid I cannot accompany you either."
The woman’s name was Ning Yun, and the Ning Family was also a cultivation family in Jinxiu City. Mei Suyan had been close to Ning Yun since childhood. At this moment, Yun Zhong’s words undoubtedly embarrassed Ning Yun, causing Mei Suyan to become instantly angry.
"Hmm?"
Seeing Mei Suyan dare speak to him in such a tone, Yun Zhong’s face darkened immediately, sneering, "You should be honored I invited you. Now, unwilling as you are, you will come with me regardless."
Having said this, Yun Zhong prepared to forcefully take Mei Suyan away.
"Brother Yun..."
Beside him, Zhang Shiming frowned, suddenly feeling regretful. Had it not been for his involvement, Yun Zhong wouldn’t have caused trouble for Mei Suyan.
"It’s none of your business, don’t meddle," Yun Zhong turned, glaring at Zhang Shiming fiercely.
Zhang Shiming’s expression changed. Yun Zhong’s cultivation was far above his own, leaving him unable to intervene. Moreover, Yun Zhong was the son of the current Saint Master of the Yun Family, a status he could not afford to provoke.
"Isn’t that Yun Zhong? Bullying a weak woman again."
"This man often bullies others, relying on his status as the Saint Master’s son. Any woman he targets meets a bad end."
"Alas, the Saint Master dotes on his only son, often turning a blind eye to his actions."
Nearby, the gathered crowd, drawn by the commotion, recognized Yun Zhong and could only shake their heads, feeling sorry for Mei Suyan.
"Come with me quietly, there’s no need for pointless resistance." Yun Zhong stepped forward, closing in on Mei Suyan.
"This friend..."
But just as he reached Mei Suyan, suddenly, someone tapped his shoulder from behind.
Instinctively turning to look, Yun Zhong saw a stranger in white standing behind him, "And you are...?"
The man in white was none other than Mo Wangchen, who wore a slight smile, seemingly harmless, "Excuse me, you’re in my way, could you please step aside?"
"Hmm?"
Upon these words, not only Yun Zhong but everyone around was momentarily stunned.
"You dare mock me, courting death?!"
Yun Zhong’s expression immediately darkened as his aura erupted, sweeping around, changing the expressions of many present.
"Slap!"
However, unbelievably, just as Yun Zhong was about to act, a shadow of an arm swiftly swept through the void.
The crisp sound resonated in everyone’s ears, making their hearts skip a beat. A clear handprint appeared on Yun Zhong’s face.
"You!"
Initially, Yun Zhong was utterly taken aback, struck dumb by the slap. As he collected himself, rage erupted on his face, eyes blazing, "You’re courting death!"
"Slap!"
Yet, just like before, before Yun Zhong could act, another crisp sound echoed, and on the other side of his face, a handprint emerged once more.
