"You all, want to stop me?"

Huang Wandi's voice was full of suppressed rage, cold and terrifying.

However, the faint yellow light and white Holy Light did not retreat at all. Both were experts in the Zhiwei Realm, yet there was still a difference in strength. The old monk was renowned for a long time, his fame far exceeded Huang Wandi, and Arthur, though gained fame later, was comparable to Huang Wandi in strength.

Most importantly, with two against one, Huang Wandi didn't have the slightest hope of victory.

"Patron Huang, as a witness, this old monk naturally cannot allow Patron Huang to publicly break his vow." The old monk's voice sounded exceedingly calm, as if without a trace of anger, but everyone heard the firmness in his words.

Similarly, Arthur also stood up, his expression resolute.

As a Zhiwei Realm strongman, although capable of crushing weaker beings, most Zhiwei Realm experts had pride within their hearts.

A shadow of a worm flew out from Huang Siyuan, returning to Xu Fan's side. At this moment, the Jade Silkworm had absorbed the Essence Blood of several Barons and Vajra Realm experts, its ability greatly enhanced, most notably with greater agility, connected to Xu Fan's mind, but especially at an extreme speed.

Everyone merely saw a faint ripple in the air, and the Jade Silkworm had already returned to Xu Fan's side.

With Xu Fan's movement, Huang Quan by Huang Wandi's side also moved to Huang Siyuan and several Guest Elders, helping them up for urgent treatment.

Huang Wandi coldly waved his sleeve, gave Xu Fan a sinister look, and left.

"Just ants, even if I let you live a few more moments, what meaning does it hold?"

Though two Zhiwei Realm experts were willing to be witnesses for Xu Fan, they could only allow Xu Fan to live until the end of the wedding. Even if the two Zhiwei Realm experts reneged and tried to protect Xu Fan, Huang Wandi had absolute confidence in putting Xu Fan to death!

...

With Huang Wandi's departure, the atmosphere inside the venue gradually became subtle.

Previously, when Huang Wandi descended, everyone had already given up on Xu Fan, certain of Xu Fan's demise. Unexpectedly, Xu Fan survived a few more moments, and now, most people felt slightly awkward looking at Xu Fan.

Some even looked at Xu Fan with malice, as in their view, since Xu Fan was destined to die, befriending him would only offend the Huang Family, clearly not a worthwhile endeavor.

Moreover, some still bore a grudge over Gongsun Qin's harsh words, casting complex glances towards Xu Fan.

Xu Fan completely ignored all eyes upon him, nodded his thanks to the old monk and Arthur, then calmly walked to his previous seat holding Gongsun Qin, silently tending to her wounds.

Gongsun Qin's injury looked terrifying, yet it was merely Huang Wandi's way of probing Xu Fan's attitude, Huang Wandi dared not inflict fatal harm, thus in no time, Xu Fan stopped Gongsun Qin's bleeding.

"Xu Fan." Gongsun Qin, who had her eyes closed, suddenly caught Xu Fan's hand, her voice exceedingly weak.

"I'm here." Xu Fan held Gongsun Qin's small hand, gazing at her pale face caused by blood loss, his deep, dark eyes filled with tenderness and anger.

Tenderness towards the beloved, anger towards his own inadequacy, such a treasured one, yet only disappointment…

Even Xu Fan, upon seeing Huang Wandi's appearance, abandoned thoughts of walking out of the Huang Family alive. Before the Zhiwei Realm experts, all calculations were in vain and powerless.

Since Xu Fan came to the Huang Family, he naturally feared not for life or death, yet now, Gongsun Qin became involved.

Looking at Gongsun Qin's pale face, Xu Fan's heart hurt as if shredded by a knife.

Suddenly, within Xu Fan's arms, Gongsun Qin seemed to recall something and displayed a faint smile.

"So nice..." Nestled in Xu Fan's embrace, Gongsun Qin closed her eyes, seemingly asleep.

Feeling the breath and heartbeat of the beloved in his arms, Xu Fan clenched his fist tightly, fingernails digging into his palm, blood dripping, yet he was utterly oblivious.

When they met at the temple, Xu Fan always considered Gongsun Qin a burden, the two never got along well. But upon hearing the news of Xia Xiaodie being kidnapped, Gongsun Qin steadfastly accompanied Xu Fan across the ocean.

Through countless battles, countless crises, Gongsun Qin never expressed her feelings to Xu Fan, merely silently followed, never abandoning.

And now, at the moment of life and death, facing mortality, Gongsun Qin drew a faint smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "So nice."

"Didn't I say earlier? Knowing how to adapt to circumstances is the mark of brilliance. No matter the potential, without understanding how to temper one's brilliance, what's the use?"

Seeing the young man holding the beauty, hands stained with blood, some felt heartache, some sorrow, yet some sneered with sarcasm.

"So-called genius, lacking maturity of mind, is still futile!"

"Too bad there's no chance! Today, this one is surely dead!"

Beside Xu Fan, few seemingly intentionally, mocked with words aimed at Xu Fan.

The warmth and chill of the world, nothing beyond this.

However, Xu Fan seemed completely unaffected, not even glancing at them, his deep eyes like the cosmos filled with an incongruous madness and calmness.

For those quick-tongued, Xu Fan didn't even pay them mind, his goal, if he couldn't bring down the Huang Family Head, would be to utterly overturn the Huang Family!

As for this group of people in the venue, Xu Fan never held much expectation for them; even if Xu Fan agreed to their demands to become a Guest Elder of some force, or even willing to join the old monk or Arthur's faction, it was all to no avail!

Concerning the Huang Family's dignity, Huang Wandi and Xu Fan were long destined for endless conflict, and against a furious Huang Wandi, nobody would truly break from Huang Wandi for Xu Fan!

From the very start, Xu Fan saw through everything with exceptional clarity.

Yet Xu Fan's silence, in these people's eyes, appeared as fear, making them more excessive.

"Didn't you ridicule us as not being men earlier? Why so silent now?"

"At just the Entering Dao Early Stage, you dare to act insolent in front of the Zhiwei Realm experts, exerting effort yet doomed to die!"

Evidently, they still harbored grievances over Gongsun Qin's earlier words.

And now, Xu Fan finally raised his head, coldly glanced at them, eyes like a beast, scarlet and filled with madness, instantly freezing them.

"Do you all truly wish to die that much?"

His hoarse voice seemed to come from Jiuyou, making them shiver uniformly, but the next moment, as Xu Fan's gaze retreated, they instead blushed furiously, angered and humiliated.
