On our wedding day, I castrated my fiancée's white moonlight.

"Can't even handle this?"

Wang Chang'an's eyes remained calm: "So what? You rush out now and kill him?"

"I……"

Wang Lie was speechless.

Even a Martial Saint-level Killing King died under Ye Fan's sword. For a First-Order Martial Venerable like him to rush out is no different from suicide.

Wang Chang'an slowly stood up: "Fool! Do you think Ye Fan's actions tonight were just for venting his anger? Just for being arrogant?"

"He's establishing his authority! Making an example of someone!"

"He killed the Martial Saint, destroyed the Heavenly Slaughter branch, razed the five major merchant guilds, and finally rode his horse around my Wang family's ancestral land. Every step he took was calculated!"

"He's telling the entire Divine City, telling all the forces there, that Ye Fan is not to be trifled with! And that the World's Number One Auction House is not to be messed with!"

Wang Chang'an stood up and walked to the window.

Looking at the pitch-black night outside, his voice grew even colder: "That sword strike, did you think it was just simple sword intent?"

"That's a warning! A warning to everyone who wants to harm him, including our royal family, including... the Holy Land!"

"What?"

Wang Lie's pupils suddenly contracted.

Wang Chang'an shook his head: "Ye Fan is not scary!"

"Here's his information, take a look for yourself!"

After saying that, he waved his hand.

A document flew out and landed in Wang Lie's hands.

Wang Lie opened the package and saw that Wang Chang'an's voice came through at the same time: "Ye Fan has been a good-for-nothing since he was a child. He has never been able to cultivate martial arts and is a Heavenly Vein Person!"

"Until three months ago, he was just a good-for-nothing playboy in Daxia. His fiancée even dared to bring other men to the backyard of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to get married."

"This piece of trash, only three months have passed, what makes him think he can shake the Crimson Merchant Guild?"

"Who cured his vital energy?"

"Who provided him with these resources?"

"Who gave him the blueprints for that weapon?"

"And Ye Fan's jade gambling skills are so advanced that even my Dragon-Seeking Technique is no match for him?"

A barrage of questions came crashing down on me.

Wang Lie analyzed the situation carefully, then broke out in a cold sweat: "This... how could an ordinary person possibly cure someone with a Heavenly Vein?"

"So many resources—eighth-tier magical beast cores, ten-thousand-year-old blood ginseng, even… dragon blood—all casually taken out… except in the Holy Land…"

"Shh!"

Wang Chang'an made a shushing gesture.

Wang Lie was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, his eyes narrowing wildly.

"If this young man didn't have an extremely powerful figure behind him, how could he dare to act like this?"

"Yuan'er died unjustly! But he didn't die unjustly either!"

"And Kun'er! Xiao'er! If they had seen through all this sooner, they wouldn't have died." Wang Chang'an sighed deeply, looking as if he had aged decades in an instant: "To oppose the Holy Land's agents is to oppose the Holy Land itself; how could they possibly survive?"

"Then... Father, what should we do? Just endure it like this?" Wang Lie's fists clenched so tightly they cracked, feeling extremely frustrated.

Their Wang family is the head of the five ancient clans in Zhongzhou!

To be so humiliated!

Wang Chang'an said, "I can't bear it, but what can you do?"

"You think Ye Fan is here to take us down because he has the backing of a Holy Land? Even if all five ancient clans of Zhongzhou were to join forces, we wouldn't be able to get a Holy Land to make a move."

"Father, so what you mean is...?"

Wang Lie gasped in shock: "Rumors say that Ye Fan is backed by the Penglai Holy Land. Could the rumors be true...?"

Wang Chang'an's gaze was solemn: "Penglai is isolated overseas, with almost no connection to the mainland."

"If Penglai wants to interfere in inland affairs, it certainly needs a front man!"

"The Great Xia Dynasty is located near the East Sea. The Prince of Zhenbei, Ye Fan, is nothing but a useless playboy, easily controlled! Meanwhile, the Penglai Holy Land is here to show everyone that their resources are strong enough to elevate a useless playboy and destroy the largest Bloodstained Merchant Guild in Central Continent!"

"This is a struggle between holy sites; you and I... are nothing more than cannon fodder."

Upon hearing this...

Wang Lie's heart was already churning with turmoil.

Finally, he lowered his head in terror, suppressing the overwhelming hatred deep in his heart!

……

Not only the Wang family, but also the other four ancient clans of Zhongzhou held meetings overnight.

Judging from Ye Fan's current performance, he may indeed have a holy land backing him up!

The Ji family.

Ji Muyang listened to the discussions among the numerous elders of the Ji family during the meeting.

His eyes narrowed slightly: "If this kid has a sacred place behind him, then everything makes sense."

"Damn! That scared me to death. I thought there really was such a powerful figure in a small country in the East."

……

Xuanyuan.

"Unbelievable! Twenty-five years ago, Xuan Yuan Qingrou was expelled from her family, yet her son was chosen by the Penglai Holy Land to become its spokesperson?"

"What should we say now? Ye Fan does have the blood of my Xuanyuan clan. Should we make contact with him secretly?"

An elderly man made a suggestion.

"I agree!"

"That's fine! If we can secretly establish connections with the Penglai Holy Land, it would be a good option for the Xuanyuan Clan." Many elders of the Xuanyuan Clan nodded in agreement.

The elderly man who made the suggestion asked with a puzzled look, "Who should we send?"

Everyone clenched their fists and frowned.

An old woman smiled and said, "There is one person who is the most suitable! She and Ye Fan are also very close."

Everyone was taken aback.

Swish-!

At the same time, he turned around and his gaze fell on Xuanyuan Jianjia.

"Huh? Me?" Xuan Yuan Jian Jia looked completely bewildered.

……

The ancestral home of the Jiang family.

All the senior members of the Jiang family gathered together.

Jiang Yuanshan, Su Wan, and Jiang Fuyao, a family of three, stood in the center of the ancient circular conference room, with countless eyes fixed on their faces.

"So, you don't know anything about Ye Fan's background?"

The three shook their heads.

The Jiang family fell silent for a moment.

Jiang Dapan said, "Uncles, judging from Ye Fan's performance tonight, this kid definitely has a holy land backing him up, just like the rumors say."

"And most likely, it's the sacred land of Penglai!"

The eyes of all the high-ranking members of the Jiang family were gleaming!

Although the Jiang family is known as one of the five ancient clans of Zhongzhou and has the backing of the Star Moon Holy Land, in reality, the Star Moon Holy Land doesn't really care about them.

The five ancient clans of Zhongzhou, backed by the sacred land of stars and moon, sound impressive to outsiders.

In fact, young people from the Jiang family who want to join the Star Moon Holy Land must also pass an assessment.

Even their status and identity are inferior to some sects supported by the Star Moon Holy Land!

But Ye Fan's identity is different. Once it is confirmed that he is the agent of Penglai Holy Land, as long as the Jiang family gets in touch with him, they will surely rise to great heights!

As for the so-called Five Great Ancient Clans of Central Plains? They were just five families who banded together for mutual support thousands of years ago.

If a new way out really comes, the entire Jiang family will definitely follow it without hesitation!

An old woman said, "Yao'er, if I remember correctly, this Ye Fan is your fiancé, isn't he?"

Jiang Fuyao blushed slightly: "Uh... Great-grandmother, yes..."

The old woman smiled and said, "You're an adult now, and Ye Fan is of marriageable age."

"Why don't you, Great-Grandma, make the decision? Let's find an auspicious day and get married."

"what?"

Jiang Fuyao looked up in surprise, a hint of shyness and astonishment flashing in her beautiful eyes.

But then, worry crept in: "Will Ye Fan... agree?"

……

Star and Moon Sacred Land Palace.

Elder Chen's expression was grave as he paced back and forth: "Is it really Penglai? After all these years, are they still unwilling to remain isolated overseas?"

Another elder said, "This matter is of great importance; we should report back!"

"That kid killed Martial Saint Killer King with a single sword strike! Judging from this good-for-nothing's records, in just three months, he went from being a complete waste to achieving this level of power. This is absolutely beyond what a good-for-nothing could have done!"

"it is good."

Elder Chen took a deep breath.

……

The major powers in the divine city were frightening themselves.

Ye Fan soaked in the bathtub and sneezed dozens of times in one go: "Achoo! Achoo! Achoo..."

"Who the hell is talking about me?"
