C443 Cold Dawn in Power
The Five Palaces had basically mobilized all their manpower, sealing the The City of Innocence like a prison. The elite disciples that were flying in the sky were like an iron lock that locked onto each other, strictly guarding against death, not letting any news leak out.
On the surface, it seemed like the Five Palaces were searching for the remnants of the Blood Drawing Pavilion, but in reality, it was sealing off the news of the Blood Drawing Pavilion's destruction in order to prevent the news from reaching the ears of the Grand Seal Empire and the Gongsun Family.
The main hall of the Violet Dragon Manor.
The five Palace Lords were all gathered here. Wu Zhongxian, Ouyang Yu, Luo Mengchen, Shangguan Mian and the other higher ups of the five residences were all listening on the sides.
At this time, Wu Zhongxian's eyes were like stars, his entire body releasing an air of arrogance. The monastic robe had been long since taken off, and the red gauze that had covered him for nearly sixteen years was now wrapped around his left wrist.
"Father, four uncles." Wu Zhongxian walked to the center of the hall, cupped his fists, and said loudly, "I have something to announce."
"Go ahead."
Wu Changkong answered as the other four looked at him in confusion.
Wu Zhongxian raised his handsome eyebrows, his gaze turned towards Luo Mengchen who was on the left side of the hall, and said, "I hope that after this matter is over, we can marry Meng Chen."
What?
Everyone was shocked, revealing looks of astonishment. Even Luo Mengchen did not expect the other party to say such a thing. Clenching her jade hands lightly, her cheeks flushed red, and her heartbeat accelerated along with her.
Wu Changkong could not help but look into Luo Hanyuan's eyes. The latter looked at him coldly, and shouted in a deep voice, "Hmph, Wu Zhongxian, it's fine if you don't say it, but once you say those words, I will become furious. You yourself abandoned my daughter that year, and now you say such words. What do you think my daughter is? If you want it, you just don't want it? "
No one was surprised by Luo Hanyuan's anger. Indeed, if it was anyone else, they would not easily forgive Wu Zhongxian. Even Wu Changkong couldn't speak up for his son.
Wu Zhongxian heaved a sigh of relief as determination flashed through his eyes. He had actually knelt in front of Luo Hanyuan.
"Humph, what are you singing this time?" Lohan Yuan did not buy it.
"Uncle Luo, I was blind in the past and didn't cherish Meng Chen. In my entire life, Wu Zhongxian has only kneeled down to my parents before.
"Hmph." Luo Hanyuan turned his head, ignoring him.
"Brother Luo, please calm down!" "Wu Changkong finally could not stand watching this any longer, and began to smooth things over. "You see that Zhongxian and Meng Chen are almost 40 years old. Do you really think that Meng Chen will stay alone in this empty room?"
"Hmph, rotting the cabbage in the ground is better than getting stuck by a pig."
Luo Han Yuan's words immediately made everyone present unable to hold back their laughter, and Shangguan Mian almost laughed out loud.
Luo Mengchen's beautiful face flushed red as she walked up to Wu Zhongxian's side and grabbed his arm to pull him up. Brother Zhongxian, let's just elope and forget about it.
"Aiya! I say, you damn girl, you dare to help outsiders to bully me? " Luo Hanyuan jumped up from his chair, fuming.
"It's obviously your fault! Brother Zhongxian is kneeling to you and you're making things difficult for him. "Don't you clearly want me to not get married? Is this how you act as a father to me?"
Luo Mengchen's personality was originally very strange to begin with. After getting back on her good side with Wu Zhongxian, her personality also returned to that mischievous nature of hers that she had a dozen or so years ago.
Luo Hanyuan was suddenly at a loss for words. To be honest, he really wanted his daughter to be happy, but in his heart, he just couldn't get over it.
"Alright, Brother Luo." Wu Changkong stood up, and cupped his fists towards Luo Hanyuan, Ouyang Qing, Shangguan Jian, and Ling Fangtang. My four brothers, because of what happened more than ten years ago, the relationship between our five residences became more and more stiff and fractured. Now, we already know that there's a traitor behind this. The five residences should be retrained. I will first apologize to my four brothers. The unhappiness that has occurred to us all these years has completely vanished. "
Wu Changkong's words caused everyone present to be moved. The four Palace Masters all lightly sighed, and remained silent with their heads lowered.
"Forget it, forget it!" Luo Han Yuan waved his hands, waved his sleeves, and looked at Luo Mengchen and Wu Zhongxian, "Stupid girl, do whatever you want! However, Wu Zhongxian, I'm warning you. "If you dare to treat Meng Chen badly, I'll tear your bones apart."
"It won't happen, don't worry Uncle Luo!" Wu Zhongxian nodded earnestly and could not help but smile at him.
A marriage that was sixteen years too late finally bloomed.
On the other side of the hall, Ouyang Yu unconsciously raised a knowing smile, within his deep eyes, there was a blessing, a happiness, and also a hint of sadness, but all of these were not important.
"Hahahaha, it seems like I came at the right time."
A burst of candid laughter came through the door, was the first to step into the hall, followed by Qiao Feilin, Yan Wu and Xiao Hei.
"Elder Brother Zhongxian, Senior Meng Chen, congratulations." Han Chen laughed as he walked in front of the two, and laughed heartily.
"Hur hur, thank you very much." Wu Zhongxian smiled back, and then patted his shoulder with some profound meaning, "You brat, you're much stronger than me, haha."
Han Chen rubbed his nose, naturally understanding what the other party was referring to. Han Chen immediately cupped his fists towards the five Palace Masters in the hall, "This punk Han Chen greets the five Palace Masters, may I know what business you five have to seek me out for?"
"No need to be so polite." Wu Changkong waved his hand. From the corner of his eyes, he communicated with the other four Palace Masters for a while, then opened his mouth to reply.
"Han Chen, through the agreement of the five of us. For the following implementation of the plan, we will leave it up to you to take command. "
When those words were spoken, the entire lobby was immediately filled with sighs!
Especially Shangguan Yi, Ling Wanquan and the other disciples from the same generation as him, all revealed dense disbelief. Give the execution authority to Han Chen? What kind of situation was this?
Han Chen was also slightly surprised, but quickly calmed himself down and said, "Isn't Palace Chief Wu's suggestion a little inappropriate? With my ability, I am unable to control this entire situation. "
"Little Brother Han Chen, you are too modest. The one who spoke was Ouyang Qing.
Pushing Han Chen to be the commander was indeed the conclusion reached by the Five Palaces after close discussion.
Firstly, Han Chen had to know the overall plans of the Grand Seal Empire and himself. had planned to destroy the Blood Drawing Pavilion. Of course, this was with the help of an intelligent woman like Yan Wu.
If the Five Palaces could not convince him simply by relying on his intelligence, then the most important point would be the Yue Lan Empire.
This time, against the Gongsun Family and the Grand Seal Empire, the Five Palaces could not be considered as the true main force. The key to success or failure still depended on the Yue Lan Empire.
Although Qiao Hongyu had already nodded his head, the only person in the middle who needed the Five Palaces and Yue Lan Empire s to be linked together was Han Chen. The reason was needless to say, it was naturally because of Qiao Feilin.
If they had only let Han Chen follow behind them and advise them, they would probably need some advice. Han Chen was not sure if he would not do his best.
However, if the commanding authority was given to Han Chen, it would be completely different. Even if it did affect the reputation of the five residences, it was a matter of life and death.
"Han Chen, I think this is probably what His Majesty Qiao Hongyu wants as well." Wu Changkong said solemnly.
was a little hesitant. He had the authority to command, which also meant that he had to lead the entire Five Palaces in a fierce battle. However, their opponents were the Grand Seal Empire and the Gongsun Family. This pressure was exceptionally difficult.
Without waiting for Han Chen to speak, Yan Wu who was standing behind him stepped forward and said, "I think if Han Chen holds the power, many people will not be convinced!"
"Don't worry about that." Wu Changkong promised sincerely, "The Five Great Palace would definitely not complain, whoever is not satisfied with Han Chen will not agree with the five of us, I wonder if Miss Yan Wu is satisfied?"
Wu Changkong and the others were experienced and knowledgeable, their experience was extraordinary. Even though they were unable to discern Yan Wu's true identity with their eyesight, they were firmly convinced that Yan Wu was definitely not an ordinary person.
With the help of so many strange talents by Han Chen's side, the Blood Drawing Pavilion falling in his hands was not a wasted death.
Receiving the strange gazes from the people in the hall, Han Chen felt as if he was holding in a breath and was about to rush out of his body. His pitch-black eyes flashed with a cold light, and the domineering aura between his brows was suddenly released.
"Since everyone thinks so highly of me, I, Han Chen, will not allow you to do so."
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Shangguan Yi, Ling Wanquan, Wu Qi Zhong and other geniuses around Han Chen's age had mixed feelings about what was happening in their hearts, and they had a complicated feeling that they couldn't describe.
In less than a year's time, Han Chen had changed from a new student who had stepped into the Five Palace sect to the highest commander of the Five Palace. This kind of achievement was enough to make all sorts of monstrous geniuses feel ashamed.
The five Palace Lords all stood up, with Hou standing on each side of the hall.
Wu Changkong extended his hand out and gestured, "Brother Han Chen."
"Haha, no need to be so courteous, I am really not used to it!" Han Chen was not one who liked etiquette. He also knew the reason why the Five Palaces had recommended him as the person in power.
Little did he know that Han Chen also wanted to use this opportunity to properly calculate the grudge between him, Gongsun Family and himself. With the and the Five Palaces, there would be a good fight in this battle.
Han Chen's eyes flashed coldly, his killing intent surging.
At the same time, Scarlet Liquid and Lambert were brought to the Main Hall. Scarlet Body was severely injured, his face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were still as vicious as a poisonous snake.
"Five old fogeys, kill me if you have the ability."
Lambert was also in quite a sorry state, and his clothes were a lot more wrinkled. His blurry old eyes looked at Han Chen coldly and gloomily.
"Hmph, Han Chen, your father and I are good friends, what do you mean by joining forces to deal with me?"
