Dugu Zimo only came to his senses after Dugu Chi reminded him.

This man was the second son of the Eastern Red King. Although he was uneducated and lecherous from a young age, Dugu Chi loved him dearly and even indulged him repeatedly, which is why he became even more reckless and lawless.

"I heard when I was a child that Ruoxi was incredibly beautiful, but it's a pity that I've only just met her. Otherwise, how could any of those women's faces catch my eye? I beg you, Father-in-law, to marry Ruoxi to me. I will treat her well and never let her suffer any injustice."

"Who do you think you are, to presume to covet my sister's beauty?"

Before Bei Mingwang could speak, Lan Junze angrily stood up, intending to teach Dugu Zimo a lesson, but was stopped by Bei Mingwang.

“Junze cannot be unreasonable. He is, after all, the son of the Eastern Red King. Let’s give him some face today. If there is a next time, I will be the first to object.”

Although the King of the North Sea was also angry, he did not want such a spoiled brat to ruin the banquet, so he gave him a warning.

The Eastern Red King chuckled, not finding anything amiss. Instead, he arrogantly said, "This is a matter between juniors. Why should the Northern Red King be angry? Besides, at today's banquet, you've allowed these unknown juniors to sit with you in high positions. Where does that leave us old folks?"

“What King Dongchi said is true. Since this is a matter between us juniors, let us juniors resolve it ourselves. Ruoxi is my sister. How dare the Second Young Master speak so rudely? As her older brother, I will teach this arrogant beast a lesson on behalf of my sister. You can’t stop me, can you?”

"Who are you calling an animal? You think you can lay a hand on me? Even if you beg for mercy after you've lost an arm or a leg, I still won't let you go."

Nangong Chen didn't waste any more words with Dugu Zimo. His palm strike moved swiftly like flowing clouds, directly striking the target.

Dugu Zimo smiled indifferently and casually waved the folding fan in his hand.

Upon seeing this seemingly harmless palm strike, the Eastern Red King's expression changed drastically, and he urgently warned, "Zi Mo, be careful!"

Unfortunately, it was too late. The palm strike pierced through the folding fan and hit Dugu Zimo directly, forcing him several feet away and causing him to cough up blood.

"Nangong Chen, you went too far! You should have crippled this shameless person as soon as possible."

Yu Haoyang had wanted to make a move for a long time, but if Lan Ruoli and Nangong Chen hadn't beaten him to it, Dugu Zimo would have been a cripple by now.

Apart from a few people, no one present even saw how he made his move. They only heard Nangong Ziming scream again, this time in much greater pain than before. Then he covered his mouth and could no longer make a sound.

King Dongchi was furious and ordered someone to take Dugu Zimo back for treatment.

"King of the Northern Underworld, how dare you allow them to harm my son? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will take action myself."

"King Dongchi, your son just insulted my precious daughter. Didn't you tell the young people to handle it themselves? Why are you making me deal with it now that your son has been wronged?"

The King of the Northern Underworld had long wanted to teach Dugu Zimo a lesson, but unfortunately he couldn't do it because of his status. Now he finally got his revenge and felt incredibly satisfied.

"No matter how unreasonable my son is, he's just talking nonsense. Your men not only attacked first, but also deliberately crippled him. Doesn't the King of the North Sea need to give an explanation?"

King Nanyu couldn't stand it any longer and cursed, "You old fool, you really have no shame! If your son wins, that's a young man's problem. But if he suffers a loss, you demand an explanation. Where does your shamelessness come from?"

The Northern Underworld King almost burst out laughing, and took the opportunity to embarrass him: "Eastern Red King, everyone here can't stand it anymore. It was clearly your son who started the trouble first. You should admit your mistake. Your old-fashioned behavior will only make more and more people resent you."

"Let me see who dares to disobey me!"

The Eastern Red King looked at the people present. Apart from a few of them, the rest of them lowered their heads, trembling with fear and not daring to speak. Facing the overlords of the four directions, this was not something they could get involved in.

"King of the Northern Underworld, I heard you are searching for a sacred herb. Do you recognize this bead in my hand?"

When the Northern Underworld King saw the bright, blood-red vine held in the Eastern Crimson King's palm, he stood up excitedly: "You actually have the Blood Dragon Vine!"

"As long as you cripple them both and marry your daughter to my son, this matter will be settled, and I will also give you this Blood Dragon Vine."

Upon hearing that the Eastern Red King was forcing Lan Ruoxi to marry Dugu Zimo, Xiao Mingjue disregarded his own status and stood up, saying, "Eastern Red King, I have been betrothed to Ruoxi since childhood. How can you blatantly steal her away just because of your status?"

"Who do you think you are? Even your father wouldn't dare speak to me in such a tone?" King Dongchi casually slapped Xiao Mingjue away. Fortunately, King Nanyu protected him, otherwise he would definitely have been seriously injured today.

Lan Ruoxi sat in the corner without saying a word. Yu Haoyang noticed that she was behaving very strangely and guessed what was going on. She was gambling that Yan Jiuyou would appear and stand up to protect her as he had done in the past when she was in danger.

In fact, Yan Jiuyou had arrived long ago. He had been watching the show and even attacked Dugu Zimo when he was taken away. In the past, he would never have spared the life of such a person, but today he wanted to make him wish he were dead, to make the Eastern Red King suffer greatly but be powerless to do anything about it. He would not let go of anyone who hurt him.

"Ninth Brother, I'm being bullied and you're still not showing up? Do you expect me to wait until my sister-in-law gets bullied before you finally come out?"

If Yu Haoyang hadn't sensed the aura of the infant spirit, he would have had a real difficulty in detecting Yan Jiuyou's aura.

Yu Haoyang is just like a rogue who calls his parents when he can't win a fight, but only a few people close to him know his true strength.

"Yu Haoyang, with your skills, do you really need me to protect you?"

Yan Jiuyou descended from the sky from afar, like a demon god, his whole body enveloped in murderous aura.

"Is this the legendary Blood Dragon Vine? I want it."

When Dongchi King saw that Yan Jiuyou had put away the Blood Dragon Vine, he finally came to his senses. He hadn't even noticed when the Blood Dragon Vine had disappeared from his hand.

"And who are you?" Seeing that these people were all highly skilled and not ordinary, King Dongchi did not make any rash moves.

Yan Jiuyou ignored him and turned to look at Lan Ruoxi. He felt very uneasy, wondering if his little wildcat had calmed down, but seeing her pitiful appearance, he felt very sorry for her.

"Aren't you always so aggressive and domineering in front of me? Why are you acting all wronged today?"

"Who told you to come so late?" Lan Ruoxi was indeed very aggrieved. She knew Yan Jiuyou was coming from the start of the banquet, but he hadn't shown up yet. Was he waiting for her to speak?

"Why am I late? Don't you know, Jin'er?" He was angry at her heartless sword strike. After the incident, she didn't even go to see him and resolutely came to this immortal realm.
