"Boy, stop talking nonsense! Yunxuan is an upright and honest man, and he has no grudge against you. Why would he kill your clansmen for no reason!"

The Yu family patriarch, Yu Wei, angrily pointed at Han Xiuyuan and said in a stern voice, "Speak quickly! Who instructed you to dare to cause trouble at the Zhuge family today!"

Han Xiuyuan ignored Yu Wei and instead looked at Yu Shirui, who was standing beside Zhuge Yunxuan with her face veiled in red, and asked in a sorrowful voice:

"Shi Rui, have you forgotten our vows of eternal love? You once said that you would marry no one but me! Now that you are marrying Zhuge Yunxuan, you must have been forced into it, right?"

The onlookers immediately focused their attention on Yu Shirui.

Even Zhuge Yunxuan was the same.

"Shi Rui, is everything this person said true?"

Zhuge Yunxuan asked, his voice trembling slightly.

During his relationship with Yu Shirui, he had never heard of her having such a former lover. A wave of bitterness and disappointment welled up in his heart.

Yu Shirui slowly raised her hand and lifted the red veil, revealing her fair and delicate face.

"Brother Han, in Shi Rui's heart, I have always regarded you as an older brother. There is absolutely no romantic feeling between us. If Shi Rui has misunderstood anything before, Shi Rui apologizes to you here."

As she spoke, Yu Shirui turned her gaze to Zhuge Yunxuan beside her and continued, "The person I truly love is Yunxuan. Marrying Yunxuan is not something I was forced by anyone else; it is something Shirui willingly chose."

"impossible!!"

Yu Shirui's words were like an ice pick to Han Xiuyuan, piercing his already riddled heart and driving him to the brink of madness. "It must have been Zhuge Yunxuan who forced you to say that!"

"presumptuous!"

Unable to contain his pent-up anger any longer, Zhuge Qi roared and slapped the crazed Han Xiuyuan with his palm.

In order not to accidentally injure others, Zhuge Qi specially condensed and compressed his true energy, so the palm print he created was only about one zhang in size.

However, Zhuge Qi was, after all, a powerful expert at the early stage of the Mountain-Shaking Realm. Even though he only used 10% of his power in this palm strike, it was enough to kill Han Xiuyuan instantly.

Seeing Zhuge Qi make his move, the guests sitting near Han Xiuyuan quickly got up and retreated, fearing that they would be caught in the crossfire.

Han Xiuyuan, who was locked in by the palm energy, had great difficulty even moving his feet under the pressure of the Mountain Shaking Realm expert, let alone dodging.

Just when everyone thought Han Xiuyuan would die tragically under this palm strike, Zhuge Jin raised his hand, but before he could make a move to block Zhuge Qi's palm print, a purple light flew out from among the guests and shattered the palm print in mid-air.

The person who made the move was Yu Lengjiao, the third leader of the Kowloon Gang.

"Yu Lengjiao! What do you mean by this?"

Zhuge Qi turned his spear around and glared angrily at Yu Lengjiao.

Yu Lengjiao did not get up. He casually picked up a grape and said slowly, "You, Zhuge Qi, are a master who has been famous for many years. It's a bit inappropriate for you to use such a harsh move against a junior. The grudges between young people should be left to them to resolve themselves. Otherwise, how can they grow?"

Before Zhuge Qi could even lower his raised eyebrows and was about to retort to Yu Lengjiao, he was interrupted by Zhuge Jin raising his hand.

Zhuge Jin glanced coldly at Yu Lengjiao, then looked at Han Xiuyuan and said solemnly, "Boy, the person who destroyed your family was not Yun Xuan, nor anyone from my Zhuge family. With the strength of my Zhuge family, if we really wanted to take action against your family, how could we let you escape alone?"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

As a powerful force, the Zhuge family could wipe out a small clan with virtually no effort. Not a single person could escape, not even a fly could get away.

Zhuge Jin continued, "Today is Yunxuan's joyous day, and I do not wish to see blood. Therefore, as long as you are willing to bow your head and admit your mistake now, I will let you leave!"

"Admit your mistake! What mistake have I made?!"

Han Xiuyuan then pointed at Zhuge Yunxuan and shouted angrily, "Zhuge Yunxuan! Do you dare to fight me?"

These words sparked another round of discussion among the surrounding crowd.

Han Xiuyuan's actions were completely unexpected.

"Be bold!"

Yu Qifeng was the first to rebuke, "Don't you even know what day it is today? And who is your own status? Patriarch Zhuge is kind-hearted and has already given you enough face. Kid, I advise you to admit your mistake and leave as soon as possible, and don't push your luck!"

The guests nodded again.

Clearly, they also agreed with Qifeng's view.

But Han Xiuyuan remained unmoved, his fists clenched, his face tense, glaring at Zhuge Yunxuan.

Zhuge Yunxuan glanced at Yu Shirui's expression beside him, and had already made up his mind about whether what Han Xiuyuan had said earlier was true or false.

"Okay! I promise you!"

"--What?"

Zhuge Yunxuan's answer surprised Yu Qifeng, Yu Wei, and Zhuge Qi.

Even the guests were extremely puzzled by this.

In their view, Han Xiuyuan was being completely unreasonable and could simply be killed or crippled and driven away; there was no need to fight him.

Of those present, only Zhuge Jin guessed that Zhuge Yunxuan would make such a decision.

To be honest, he didn't want Zhuge Yunxuan to fight this battle, because in his opinion, Han Xiuyuan was able to sneak into the wedding banquet without anyone noticing, so there must be someone helping him behind the scenes.

He couldn't guess who the other party was or what their purpose was, so he could only take it one step at a time and wait for the person behind Han Xiuyuan to reveal their true colors.

In his view, Yu Lengjiao was the most suspicious, but he could not act rashly without solid evidence.

After all, although the Kowloon Gang was not as powerful as the Zhuge family, it was still a genuine silver-level force.

"Are you sure you want to accept this challenge?"

Zhuge Jin looked at Zhuge Yunxuan and asked.

Zhuge Yunxuan replied earnestly, "Father, I am certain!"

Zhuge Jin nodded and said no more.

Jiang Xiaochuan never expected that his first time attending a wedding banquet would lead to such a spectacular show.

However, there is a complex love triangle involving love, hate, and revenge, as well as a duel between rivals.

He really went all out this time to the Zhuge family!

Jiang Xiaochuan, engrossed in his thoughts, followed the others to the Zhuge family's martial arts training ground.

Zhuge Yunxuan's cultivation level was at the peak of the Returning Heaven Realm, while Han Xiuyuan had only reached the mid-stage of the Returning Heaven Realm.

The two were two minor realms apart, so in everyone's eyes, this was a duel with no suspense whatsoever.

None of the guests understood why Han Xiuyuan would make such a humiliating decision.

If their cultivation levels were switched, Han Xiuyuan might have a slight chance of winning.

Standing in the center of the training ground, Zhuge Yunxuan clearly also noticed the difference in their cultivation levels, and thus looked at the opposite side and said coldly:

"I don't want to bully the weak. To be fair, I will suppress my cultivation level to the mid-stage of the Returning Heaven Realm!"

Han Xiuyuan sneered: "Stop pretending! I don't need you to give in. Just go all out, so you won't have to make excuses when you lose in the end!"

"--good!"

Zhuge Yunxuan laughed angrily, "Then so be it!"

Before he finished speaking, he had already disappeared from the spot.
