Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

At the wedding banquet, the Xu family sat together, with Elder Kong on one side of him.

At this time, people from various factions arrived one after another with congratulatory gifts.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the eight ancient kingdoms were part of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Later, the Great Zhou royal family suffered a severe blow and disappeared after being destroyed.

After that, various forces within the dynasty carved out their own territories, gradually evolving into the eight ancient kingdoms we know today.

The State of Wu was founded by Marquis Shenwu, the first marquis of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The You family existed during the Great Zhou Dynasty and was a staunch supporter of the Marquis of Shenwu. After the founding of the country, they became one of the founding fathers, so one can imagine the depth of their influence and connections.

Therefore, among the guests who came were not only powerful figures from the Wu Kingdom, but also from other ancient kingdoms.

"The Chu family of You Kingdom has arrived."

Kong Lao, who had been smiling all along, turned grim and his breathing became disordered upon hearing these words. He only recovered after a moment, though a murderous aura lingered deep in his eyes.

Xu Qingzhou noticed Kong Lao's unusual behavior and asked via telepathy, "Is this Chu family your enemy from back then?"

Back then, Kong Lao's family was in You Kingdom. After being wiped out by the Chu family, he was defeated and seriously injured. He fled all the way to the three remote dynasties, which is how he escaped this calamity.

Kong Lao nodded.

"The Chu family is now the number one family in You Kingdom. With a True Saint Ancestor in charge, its overall strength is second only to the royal family."

The eight ancient kingdoms were roughly equal in strength, otherwise they would have been at war long ago.

As the leading family in You Kingdom, the Chu family would be almost the top family in other ancient kingdoms as well.

Xu Qingzhou replied, "Don't worry, the Xu family will help you get revenge."

Elder Kong has done a lot for the Xu family over the years, and Xu Chen has come to regard him as his grandfather. He is now considered a member of the Xu family, so it is only right to help him avenge his family.

"Thank you, clan chief."

If other forces with similar strength to the Xu family said such a thing, Elder Kong would definitely not believe it.

After all, apart from Elder Kong, the Xu family doesn't even have a Dharma Aspect Realm expert. What right do they have to say they'll seek revenge on the Chu family, which has a True Saint in charge?

But after meeting several of the Xu family's prodigies, Elder Kong felt that not to mention the Chu family, the Xu family could even destroy the eight ancient kingdoms in the future.

At this moment, the Chu family had finished presenting their congratulatory gifts and came over to see Xu Chen.

The young man leading the Chu family was dressed in white, with flowing black hair, and was quite handsome.

"I've heard that the son-in-law of the You family has become a disciple of the Shenque Academy. He must be exceptionally talented and powerful. I've come here today specifically to learn from him. Would you do me the honor?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd erupted in uproar.

"What does this person mean? Trying to challenge the groom on his wedding day? Isn't this just deliberately looking for trouble?"

"Keep your voice down, he is Chu You, the third young master of the Chu family."

"No wonder he's so bold and unafraid of the You family."

"I heard he was one of the suitors of the You family's daughter. I guess he was unhappy to see her get married, so he came to cause trouble."

Chu You didn't even mention Xu Chen's name, only referring to him as the son-in-law of the You family, which was clearly a deliberate attempt to mock him.

Xu Chen said calmly, "Today is my wedding day. I don't want to use a knife. If you want to fight, you can wait until tomorrow."

Chu You chose today; otherwise, the Chu family, which has little connection with the You family, wouldn't have come at all.

He had been in seclusion, and when he finished his cultivation, he learned that You Luoran was going to marry Xu Chen, which made him furious.

Whether it is appearance, temperament, talent, or family background, I am considered to be extremely outstanding.

Unfortunately, You Luoran chose Xu Chen, who was inferior to her in every way, which made him resentful and he decided to cause trouble today regardless of everything.

"If you are afraid, or know that you are no match for them, you can admit defeat. There is no need to make excuses to delay."

This is a classic example of an open conspiracy by Chu You.

Everyone could tell that this was a provocation, but if Xu Chen didn't agree, he would lose face in front of so many powerful forces on his wedding day.

If they agree, winning would be fine, but losing to Chu You would be a complete loss of face.

However, Chu You was in the late stage of the Primordial Spirit realm, while Xu Chen was only in the middle stage.

If it were an ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, Xu Chen could easily win; with his top-tier spiritual body, challenging someone of a higher level is not difficult for him.

However, Chu You was also a prodigy, a spiritual being, whose cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, and weapons were in no way inferior to Xu Chen's, and were even better.

If you can challenge someone of a higher level, so can I; it means there's still a gap in their skill levels.

At this moment, You Chengwu stepped forward with a displeased expression.

"Today is my daughter's wedding day, what is the meaning of this?"

Compared to the Chu family, the You family is indeed a little inferior, but only slightly. Besides, this is the Wu Kingdom, the You family's territory, so he has no need to give a good face to a junior who wants to cause trouble.

Chu You laughed and said, "It's nothing. I just want to spar with a disciple of Shenque Mansion. If he doesn't dare, then forget it."

With things having come to this, Xu Chen said, "Let's finish this quickly. If you lose, get out of here immediately."

"You lost? Are you going to get out of here too?" Chu You asked sternly.

Xu Chen didn't want to say anything more. He directly took out a golden spear with an ancient mythical beast, Qiongqi, carved on its shaft, exuding power and dominance.

Chu You used a gray halberd, and as soon as he took it out, a murderous aura instantly spread out.

"clang!"

The two figures vanished instantly, and the next moment, their weapons collided in mid-air.

Even though they were high in the air, the aftershocks of the battle still caused a gust of wind to rise from the ground.

The powerful members of the You family quickly intervened, cutting off the area where the two were fighting, thus preventing the aftershocks of their battle from affecting the guests present.

In the first collision, Xu Chen, whose cultivation level was lower, was sent flying backward.

Chu You chuckled, "He does have some skill, but that's all."

Xu Chen swept his golden spear across the air, instantly unleashing a dazzling display of lightning and gold. The light was so intense that those with weaker abilities had to close their eyes.

"Boom!"

Thick bolts of lightning, as thick as a thigh, tore through the void, engulfing Chu You in a sea of ​​lightning.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Chu You swung his gray halberd down with a powerful blow, like a pillar of heaven collapsing, creating a long vacuum in the sea of ​​lightning and successfully escaping.

Xu Chen's strength was indeed remarkable, which made him abandon his contempt and decide to unleash his full power.

For a time, the two fought fiercely in the air, neither able to gain the upper hand.

Everyone understood that if they were at the same level, Xu Chen would probably have already won.

But that's how the world is; you can't expect your opponent to be at the same level as you when you encounter them.

"It's over!"

Chu You's eyes narrowed, and he gripped the halberd with both hands, his true energy surging.

"Breaking the Sky!!"

The phantom of the gray halberd stretched for thousands of feet, making Xu Chen appear incredibly small in comparison.

But Xu Chen was not afraid at all. He roared and transformed into a silver thunder dragon to meet the attack.

"Roar!!!"

The roar of the Thunder Dragon resounded throughout the heavens and earth. If their battle area had not been separated by the powerful members of the You family, the mighty dragon could have even spread throughout the capital of the Martial Kingdom.

"boom!!"

Xu Chen, inside the silver thunder dragon, held his spear against Chu You's chest, but it was blocked by Chu You's protective golden armor.

Xu Chen's offensive continued unabated, his spear pressing down on Chu You all the way down.

"Boom!!"

Chu You crashed heavily to the ground like a meteorite, creating a large crater and kicking up a cloud of thick smoke.

When the thick smoke cleared, Xu Chen stood on his side, while Chu You, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth and barely breathing, lay on the ground with Xu Chen's spear at his neck.

At this moment, the outcome is decided.
