Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

All eyes in the arena were fixed on the Heavenly Demon, their faces filled with utter disbelief.

Even within the Eternal True Realm, who would dare to disrespect a figure like the Heavenly Demon? Yet now, a human from the Eternal True Realm has poured the wine he bestowed upon him onto the ground, displaying such arrogance, and he actually intervened to save him.

While everyone hesitated, the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Demon looked at Li Lan indifferently and said, "So you already have a master. I was presumptuous."

"In that case, then forget it."

He glanced around the room and said, "Eat and drink."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine jug, poured himself a cup, and began to drink.

Everyone was completely baffled!

At this moment, an Ancestral Demon spoke up with a smile, explaining, "Li Lan was able to extract the wisp of demonic energy bestowed upon him by Fellow Daoist Dangtian from the blood wine, which means that he possesses at least the primordial power of other Ancestral Demons."

"Therefore, he must have already gained the approval of the other Ancestral Demons!"

"As for spilling wine on the ground, it is to imitate the ancient emperors of the primordial world and to show their firm refusal."

The ancestral demon continued:

“In the ancient times of the Primordial World, there was a Primordial Heavenly Demon who was preparing to take in a hundred geniuses from all over the world. At that time, all the major clans sent their holy sons and daughters to him. However, one of them already had his own master and was unwilling to give up. So when he faced that Primordial Heavenly Demon, he did the same thing as Wu Heng.”

"This person was also considered disrespectful at the time and was hunted down. However, later, he was blessed with great fortune and his luck was extraordinary. He actually became the Great Emperor of the Primordial World, and his power shook the world. The Heavenly Demon who forcibly wanted to take him as his disciple was also killed by him with his own hands!"

"This incident from years ago has been spread around the world. The disrespectful act of the past has naturally become a beautiful story for the emperor. From then on, spilling wine on the ground was regarded as a farewell gift to one's teacher."

"Therefore, there was an unwritten rule in the primordial world: a master can choose his disciple, and a disciple can choose his master. Just now, Wu Heng responded with the ancient etiquette of the primordial world. You are unaware of this, so you naturally think it is disrespectful."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

"So that's it..."

"Wu Heng, did he already have another powerful backer?"

"It must be the Five Elements Goddess of the Third Clan; she's the only one left!"

Many people spoke up.

Dongya Changlie reacted instantly.

No wonder!

Clearly, Wu Heng's actions displeased the Ancestral Demon of the Sky, but in front of so many Ancestral Demons, if he were to let Li Lan die because of this, it would be beneath his dignity. Moreover, he would not only be in the wrong, but would also create enmity with the Third Clan.

inappropriate.

That's why he stepped in to stop the crowd.

However, Dongya Changlie couldn't help but sneer. Although Wu Heng was not dead, he had already offended the Heavenly Demon by refusing to accept the offer.

He was genuinely worried that Wu Heng might defect to the sect of the Heavenly Demon Ancestor. If that happened, it was uncertain whether the Heavenly Demon Ancestor and the others would still help them...

"I see. Senior Dangtian's magnanimity is truly admirable. I toast to you, senior!"

He immediately stood up and bowed to the Heavenly Demon.

In an instant, people from other royal families and aristocratic clans also toasted the Heavenly Demon Ancestor.

……

The banquet dispersed.

"It seems that the Dongya royal family has wicked intentions, and tomorrow's battle will likely be full of unexpected twists and turns."

Back in the palace, Hua Tianqiu sighed softly.

The situation today is extremely dangerous. If Li Lan hadn't made preparations in advance, the Hua Tian clan might have faced a real calamity.

"It doesn't matter."

Li Lan said slowly, "Senior, just focus on preparing for the clan war. After this conference, the Dongya royal family will definitely fight to the death. They will not sit idly by and wait for their doom."

"When the time comes, we'll send them on their way."

Hua Tianqiu's expression was slightly complicated. He was still worried about what kind of underhanded tactics the Dongya royal family would use during the conference...

As a result, Li Lan was already certain that Xingluoyuan would win the Demon Assembly, and was he already making preparations for what would happen after the victory?
