At this moment, the majority of people believed that Xu Fan would absolutely not stand up.
Just like the elder of the Huang Family was worried, with so many prominent and distinguished guests present, Xu Fan could use them as an excellent cover. Even the Huang Family wouldn't dare to search everyone one by one.
And Xu Fan only needed to suddenly stand out during the wedding to bring disgrace to the Huang Family.
However, to everyone's surprise, just as Huang Siyuan's words, "if you're a man, stand up," landed, a voice leisurely arose.
"It's only been a few days, and young master of the Huang Family is so eager to see me?"
"Could it be that the slap to your face twice before wasn't painful enough?"
As he spoke, Xu Fan leisurely stood up. The veil makeup on his face was instantly dispelled by his spiritual power, revealing a face that was excessively youthful. At this moment, Xu Fan's face showed no sign of panic but rather a hint of amusement.
The crowd let out a collective gasp, not only because of Xu Fan's age but for his audacity!
In these circumstances, most people would want to hide as long as possible, yet Xu Fan stood up directly against the experts of the Huang Family.
Isn't this Xu Fan afraid of death?
"This young man is too reckless!"
"Yes, he's still too young after all..."
Immediately, someone in the crowd shook their head and sighed.
In the crowd, Avril's pair of sky-blue eyes lit up and she was about to stand up to acknowledge Xu Fan, but was stopped by Arthur shaking his head beside her.
The two seemed to have reached some sort of agreement before coming. Although Avril was full of unwillingness, facing Arthur's solemn expression, she could only pout and become a spectator.
Although the current situation looked quite dangerous, the Huang Family hadn't made a move yet. Once the Huang Family truly took action, Avril certainly wouldn't stand by!
As for the agreement with Arthur? To hell with it!
But Arthur seemed to have seen through Avril's thoughts, keeping his eyes firmly on her. If Avril made any move, Arthur could stop her immediately.
The waters of the Huang Family run deep; even Arthur isn't completely sure of protecting Xu Fan.
Moreover, although Arthur had some admiration for Xu Fan, it was only a bit of admiration. Directly opposing the Huang Family for someone like Xu Fan appeared to Arthur to be a losing bargain!
At this moment, Huang Siyuan was smiling very happily.
Even though Xu Fan's words were full of humiliation, Huang Siyuan was not the least bit annoyed. He didn't care about the Huang Family's face as long as he could kill the big threat Xu Fan—Huang Siyuan was willing to pay any price.
As a playboy, Huang Siyuan could disregard the Huang Family's face, but the elder beside him, as one of the Huang Family's Guest Elders, could not.
Although surprised that Xu Fan would stand up, the elder was even angrier; in order to maintain the Huang Family's face, he had to kill Xu Fan and minimize the impact!
"Young man, I don't intend to pursue your little squabbles with Siyuan. But today, those sitting here are distinguished guests of our Huang Family. Someone like you must not disturb their enjoyment."
"If you know what's good for you, come with me, and we'll negotiate outside on how to handle your grudge with Siyuan."
The elder's words, brimming with killing intent, immediately stirred an uproar among the crowd.
Little squabbles? Don't intend to pursue? Who would believe such blatant lies? The real uproar, however, was caused by the elder's intention to take Xu Fan outside to deal with him.
Rarely do they have such entertainment, but the Huang Family intended to take Xu Fan outside to kill him discreetly, which left the crowd dissatisfied.
"I say, why not have a showdown right here? The Huang Family has been conserving its strength for years—let's see what they can do!"
Immediately, someone shouted and stirred up the commotion.
"Yeah! Killing someone while hiding like this is no fun!"
"Has the Huang Family, after all these years in the West, lost even the aura of the Hidden World Families?"
The crowd clamoured, demanding the elder kill Xu Fan on the spot.
No one had high hopes for Xu Fan, just a junior at the Entering Dao Realm Peak acting so impulsively—hardly a promising future! Standing out made him appear exceedingly manly and bold, but imminent death would render manliness meaningless.
Facing the pitiful gazes of the onlookers, Xu Fan's eyes remained utterly indifferent. It was as if everything around him was unrelated.
At this moment, facing the elder's killing words, Xu Fan merely smiled lightly.
"Want to kill me? And invite me outside?"
"Just a Vajra Realm late-stager, and you think you're qualified?"
Xu Fan's demeanor was calm, but his words were extraordinarily boastful.
Arthur immediately furrowed his brows, his gaze toward Xu Fan lost its previous appreciation.
How could the Huang Family have only one Vajra Realm expert? Moreover, a Vajra Realm late-stage expert wanting to kill an Entering Dao Realm junior—how is that unqualified? At death's door, yet refusing to relent is not stubbornness, it's folly!
Nonetheless, the crowd seemed to fear not enough drama, collectively bursting into laughter.
The elder's expression immediately darkened.
The elder's biggest worry was precisely this kind of scene. These distinguished guests laughing together could easily escalate the situation. Even if Xu Fan were killed, it wouldn't restore the Huang Family's dignity.
"Looks like I will have to act immediately and kill this boy on the spot!"
The elder sighed inwardly, but his movements were swift. With a twist of his toes, his figure swept towards Xu Fan like blue smoke, emitting the momentum of the Vajra Realm.
"Anyone who insults the Huang Family shall die!"
The elder's fingers sprang forth violent spiritual power, clearly intending to end Xu Fan with a single blow.
The elder's decisive action sobered the rowdy crowd.
After all, the Huang Family is one of the Hidden World Families, and now the host of this banquet!
Xu Fan is inevitably doomed!
Avril watched this immensely violent strike, her expression tensing as she immediately moved to charge at the elder, only to feel the world change abruptly, enveloped in Arthur's Domain.
"Uncle Arthur! Let me out!"
Faced with Avril's cries, Arthur remained seated on the mat, gazing at Xu Fan with an icy expression.
