"With such an important figure personally visiting Lin Yin Pavilion, Lin Yin Pavilion is likely to become famous and known to everyone."
Another person echoed this sentiment.
"Today's events have taken many unexpected turns. At first, I was not optimistic about Fang Han, but now that Wu Lei has been crippled by him, it is really hard to predict how things will develop next."
Someone frowned and said with a puzzled look.
"As the head of the Demon Suppression Division, the Prince of Zhenbei was involved in the purge of the Hehuan Sect back then. Could it be that Su Qianyu's mother, Ouyang Yan, was really the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect?"
People started whispering among themselves.
"You'd better watch your mouth. A big shot like the Prince of Zhenbei is here. Don't gossip. Let's just keep quiet and watch the show. If we offend the Prince of Zhenbei, we'll be in big trouble."
The person next to him quickly tugged at his sleeve, reminding him anxiously.
Inside the banquet hall, the crowd was abuzz with discussion, their voices rising and falling.
But as the Prince of Zhenbei's gaze swept lightly over the crowd, the scene instantly fell silent, becoming so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Everyone held their breath, afraid of making the slightest sound.
Although Su Aiai's memory of following Fang Han to Yin Yang Mountain to wipe out the remnants of the Hehuan Sect had been erased, the sudden appearance of the Zhenbei King still made her feel a strange unease. This unease spread like a tide, making her increasingly flustered.
Su Qianyu was also extremely uneasy, a strong sense of crisis enveloping her.
"Greetings, Prince Zhenbei!"
Wu Jianbo, worthy of being regarded as the future head of the Wu family, immediately began to weigh the pros and cons upon learning that the person in front of him was actually the Prince of Zhenbei. He then decisively knelt on one knee and bowed to Prince Xiao Zhan of Zhenbei with a clean and swift movement.
His kneeling posture was humble and respectful, his face full of awe.
"Get up."
"Zhenbei Wang Xiao Zhan said calmly."
Upon hearing this, Wu Jianbo slowly stood up. After standing still, he remained slightly bowed, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
"It is a great honor for the Wu family that the Prince of Zhenbei has personally attended the engagement banquet of my son and my daughter Su Qianyu. Please, Your Highness, take a seat."
Wu Jianbo's father, Wu Haomiao, the current head of the Wu family, walked hurriedly to the Prince of Zhenbei with a big smile on his face.
Although he was over eighty years old, with a head of white hair and wrinkles crisscrossing his face, he seemed like a different person in front of the Prince of Zhenbei. He moved nimbly and his eyes were full of flattery.
He clasped his hands together, bent his waist even lower, almost parallel to the ground, appearing very humble.
Everyone knew that Wu Haomiao was a notorious old fox in Yanming City, with a deep mind and shrewdness.
He knew perfectly well that the Prince of Zhenbei's visit was not for a simple purpose.
However, he cleverly avoided this sensitive topic, without asking the purpose of the Prince of Zhenbei's visit, and instead extended a warm invitation to the Prince of Zhenbei to take a seat.
His plan was that, as the saying goes, one shouldn't hit a smiling face. Given his warm and respectful attitude, as long as there was no deep-seated hatred between the Prince of Zhenbei and the Wu family, he figured the Prince wouldn't make things too difficult for the Wu family.
Prince Zhenbei, Xiao Zhan, remained silent, only calmly scanning the crowd before steadily walking to the main seat and slowly taking his place.
Seeing the Prince of Zhenbei take his seat, Wu Haomiao, Wu Jianbo, Wu Zhenyu, Su Qianyu, and the others couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
In their view, since the Prince of Zhenbei was willing to take a seat, it seemed that he was not there specifically to help Fang Han, which put their previously anxious hearts at ease.
However, they were unaware that at that moment, Zhenbei King Xiao Zhan was having a secret telepathic exchange with Fang Han.
“Mr. Fang, I was once fortunate enough to receive careful guidance from a senior master of the Qingxuan Sect. In a way, Wu Qiang, the patriarch of the Wu family, is a fellow disciple of mine, and can be considered half a senior brother. Today, I dare to plead with you, hoping that you can be lenient and let the Wu family off this time.”
The divine sense of Zhenbei King Xiao Zhan carried a sincere plea.
He knew very well that if he hadn't intervened in time, Wu Zhenyu would probably have already died at Fang Han's hands.
"The Wu family wanted to marry Su Qianyu before I publicly divorced her, which was a blatant insult to me and the Fang family. Moreover, even now, the Wu family is still spouting nonsense and clamoring to take my life."
Fang Han responded with his divine sense.
He had long seen through the Wu family and knew that they were all ruthless and would not let the opportunity pass them by.
Moreover, the Wu family, as the most powerful family in Yanming City, is used to being arrogant and domineering, and they don't take him, a mere member of the Fang family, seriously at all.
“Mr. Fang, please spare the Wu family this time for my sake. If the Wu family dares to retaliate against you later, then you can uproot the Wu family completely. That will be their own fault, and I, Xiao Zhan, will not interfere in the matter.”
Xiao Zhan, the Prince of Zhenbei, continued to transmit his voice.
"Alright, but I will definitely teach the Su family and the Zhao family a lesson. Moreover, the Wu family shall never again mention the matter of marrying Su Qianyu."
Fang Han hesitated for a moment, quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, and finally agreed to the request of the Prince of Zhenbei.
He felt that the Prince of Zhenbei was a fairly righteous person, and since the other party was pleading so sincerely, he was willing to give him face.
After all, upon closer examination, the families he truly hated were the Su and Zhao families.
Now that he has crippled Wu Lei's cultivation, he has taught the Wu family a lesson. Letting the Wu family go for now is a wise move.
"Thank you, Mr. Fang!"
