After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

Zhou Baihe's menacing aura was terrifying, but Lin Ying ignored him and instead asked Lin Zhan, "Father, Lin Tian has designs on his daughter. What will you choose?"

"Ying'er, how long are you going to keep making a scene? Marrying the Dragon King is the greatest fortune of your life!"

Lin Zhan still chose to stand on Lin Tian's side.

Lin Ying looked disappointed. "Some time ago, someone told me that my father colluded with outsiders, trying to hand over the auction house in exchange for profits. I, the owner of the auction house, didn't even know that my own business was being used as a stepping stone by my own father."

After these words were spoken, the whole audience was silent.

Lin Zhan's expression changed several times. "How could Mingyue Auction House be your business alone? If the Lin family didn't back you up, how could you have expanded it so much by yourself!"

"Are you no longer pretending? My father, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You can't forget that first wife and want to use my things to please her, hoping to advance further in martial arts. You've got a good plan, but unfortunately, I don't agree."

After saying that, Lin Ying's body slowly rose into the air, her charming face becoming much more gloomy. "Since we've torn off all pretense today, I'll give you a choice: either get out, or I'll imprison you forever!"

"You rebellious daughter, how dare you!"

"I don't need a father who betrays his country. Today, we sever all ties. The choice is yours!"

Lin Ying's aura surged dramatically, rising from the Martial King level to the Saint King level in just one breath, clearly indicating that she had used some trump cards.

"Master Lin, you see, your daughter is disobedient. I, an outsider, will discipline her for you and take her down!"

Lin Tian immediately gave the order, and the battle broke out.

The entire battlefield was instantly transported out of the imperial city by the Lin family's array patterns. The two sides fought fiercely, their laws intersecting, causing tremors that disturbed the imperial city, attracting countless onlookers.

Chen Futu and Wang Qianshan exchanged a glance and discussed it privately.

Wang Qianshan pondered for a moment and said, "Doing business in the Northern Region still depends on Lin Ying. Regardless of whether she saves people or not, I have to help her with this."

Chen Futu said, "What a coincidence! I'm looking to avenge my precious disciple and am about to capture Lin Tian. However, I've heard that the Lin family has an ancient saint. I wonder if he'll appear?"

"That old man has been in seclusion and may not show up. Moreover, that kid named Lin Tian may have a backup plan this time."

While the two were talking, Lin Ying had already been subdued by Zhou Baihe.

As the former king, Zhou Baihe possessed the strength of a Great Sage at its peak. Zhou Ying, who forcibly used her trump card to upgrade to the Saint King level, was no match for him. Fortunately, she had a secret that allowed her to form a transparent barrier that could block the Great Sage's attacks.

Wang Qianshan exclaimed in surprise: "I heard that Lin Ying's maternal grandfather's family is very powerful, but they keep a low profile. It seems that the rumors are true. This girl's real backer is her maternal clan, not the Lin family. These Saint Dao experts from Mingyue Auction House were all sent by Lin Ying's maternal clan."

"Very well, today I shall establish my authority!"

Lin Ying dodged Zhou Baihe's attack, but suddenly a supreme expert appeared to protect her. With just one strike, Zhou Baihe was forced to vomit blood, his face filled with terror.

"Elder Hua Yun?"

Chen Futu was slightly surprised, not expecting to see members of the Celestial Clan here!

"Sixth Elder, I beg you."

Lin Ying spoke to Hua Yun, who nodded. She looked down at Zhou Baihe with disdain, as if he were an ant. Suddenly, she caught sight of Chen Futu and abandoned Zhou Baihe. She instantly appeared in front of Chen Futu and bowed respectfully, saying, "I didn't expect His Majesty the Holy Emperor to be here as well. This old woman greets you."

The brief sentence silenced the fierce battlefield, and everyone stared in disbelief. Lin Tian also looked astonished.

Holy Emperor?

There is only one person in the entire world who dares to call himself the Holy Emperor, and that is Emperor Chen Futu of the Great Xia Dynasty!

Chen Futu said with a smile, "Sixth Elder, it's been a long time since I've seen you. I thought you had returned to the Celestial Clan."

“The Bright Moon Auction House is Lin Yatou’s business, and it has the Heavenly Clan backing it up. If something happens, how can our clan stand idly by?” Hua Yun said with a hint of helplessness.

Chen Futu then understood why Hua Hua had taken him to the Bright Moon Auction House in Taiping City. It turned out to be a property of the Celestial Clan. That brat had been hiding it quite well.

If Lin Ying has the Celestial Clan backing her up, then this damned Dragon King is doomed. The Celestial Clan is no ordinary race; their foundation is in no way weaker than the major powers in the Central Plains. It's no exaggeration to say that they have powerful quasi-emperors among their clans.

Hua Yun explained, "Lin Yatou had long suspected that her father was plotting something sinister and had been making preparations in secret. Sure enough, today Lin Zhan has colluded with the forces in Zhongzhou and intends to forcibly take over the Mingyue Auction House. So Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will deal with these filthy things first, and then I will invite you to a banquet later."

"Sixth Elder, please make yourself at home. Old Wang and I will wait."

Chen Futu had no interest in the Dragon Pavilion; as long as Lin Tian was captured, everything else was negotiable.

Hua Yun nodded and locked onto Zhou Baihe again. In the ensuing battle, Zhou Baihe, a peak Great Sage, became a punching bag. He was no match for Hua Yun. Hua Yun beat him like a grandson, and she was quite measured in her attacks, not going for the kill. It was just a one-sided beating.

Wang Qianshan grimaced as he watched. Old Zhou was an old friend of his, and the two were evenly matched in strength. Old Zhou had been beaten so badly that Wang Qianshan felt a burning pain all over his body. If it were him, he would probably have been hung up and beaten by Hua Yun as well.

On the other side, Lin Tian had already begun to consider retreating. Putting aside the fact that Hua Yun was an ancient saint, the mere presence of Chen Futu made him feel like he had a thorn in his side.

He knew Chen Futu all too well what kind of person he was.

The powerful emperors behind the Great Xia Holy Emperor kill Quasi-Emperors like chickens. No matter how strong the Dragon Pavilion is, it can't defeat such a terrifying existence. Previously, the mysterious empress saw through the boundless realm with a single glance and instantly killed a Quasi-Emperor from a distance. The light from her eyes made all the powerful figures in the entire Northern Region tremble.

"Oh no, that kid's trying to run away!"

Wang Qianshan couldn't sit still any longer and swiftly moved to block Lin Tian's retreat.

Lin Tian was furious: "Senior of Zilu Academy, we have no grudges against each other, why do you block my way?"

"I don't like you, I want to beat you up, is that a problem?"

Wang Qianshan is incredibly clever.

Knowing the feud between Chen Futu and Lin Tian, ​​and now that they've started fighting, why not intervene and seize the opportunity to have Lin Tian do Chen Futu a favor?

Knowing what the old man was thinking, Chen Futu immediately stood behind Lin Tian and said, "Old Wang, is it really okay for you to scheme against me like this?"

"Hehe, what are you saying? We're like brothers, I'll teach this kid a lesson for you, so you don't get your hands dirty."

After saying that, Old Wang actually went for it, kicking Lin Tian so hard that his internal organs shifted.

Lin Ying originally wanted to deal with Lin Tian, ​​but seeing this scene, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, "His Majesty the Holy Emperor has a lot of influence. Even Elder Wang, a scholar, has gotten involved."

"No, he's no scholar at all, just a disrespectful old man."
