At today's celebratory banquet, Tangyu was undoubtedly the most dazzling figure. In the minds of many, his status had even surpassed that of Yan Nantian. At least for those guests, they were all here for Tangyu. Among the disciples of the Yanshan Sect, Tangyu's prestige had naturally reached its peak, becoming the object of admiration for most disciples.

Tangyu did enjoy this feeling; with strength comes everything. This is the survival law of this world.

Calculating the time since arriving in the cultivation world, it's been a year. The achievements over the past year were something Tangyu was quite satisfied with. However, Tangyu knew very well that this was not enough, far from enough. With his current strength, he still couldn't return to Earth. With his current strength, he was still far from his pursuit. Even reaching the Immortal Realm was not what Tangyu was pursuing.

To seek the Dao and become immortal, to wander free and at ease, was everything Tangyu pursued.

"The envoy of Liang Kingdom, under the order of Liang King, comes to offer congratulations!" Suddenly, a voice came, and a middle-aged man, accompanied by a group of guards, approached. From the aura of this man, it could be sensed that he was in the Golden Core Realm.

As this person arrived, the previously lively great hall suddenly quieted down, and all eyes turned to him.

Why did the envoy of Liang Kingdom come? A hint of doubt arose in the hearts of many. Liang Kingdom wasn't it eager to annihilate the Yanshan Sect? Liang Kingdom suffered a great loss this time, yet still sent an envoy to offer congratulations. Doesn't this feel like a weasel paying respect to an old hen?

Seeing people from Liang Kingdom, the members of the Yanshan Sect naturally didn't show a good expression. This time, the Yanshan Sect was almost destroyed at the hands of the Blood Demon Sect, and many disciples of the Yanshan Sect were brutally killed by the Blood Demon Sect, dying tragically outside. The root cause of all this was Liang Kingdom. So, everyone naturally harbored resentment towards Liang Kingdom. However, facing this Golden Core Realm envoy of Liang Kingdom, no one dared to show much.

The gazes of Tangyu and Yan Nantian also turned to the newcomer, and obviously, neither of them showed a good face. The atmosphere on the scene grew somewhat oppressive.

The envoy of Liang Kingdom's brows furrowed slightly. In the past, visiting a sect's power would be a great honor for that sect, and he would be highly esteemed. But today, coming to Yanshan Sect, he wasn't even acknowledged. No one in Yanshan Sect came to receive him, and Yan Nantian still sat calmly under the main seat, looking at him with a composed expression. In the past, he would surely have lost his temper.

But today, here, he didn't dare to express that emotion. After all, there was the extremely formidable Tangyu here. If he provoked this guy, he might have a big problem today. Moreover, he was here on the orders of Liang King to bring a congratulatory gift to the Yanshan Sect, and he also wanted to ease relations with Tangyu.

Liang King had chosen to bow his head, so what did a mere Golden Core Realm mean?

The envoy of Liang Kingdom approached Tangyu and Yan Nantian and said once more, "Greetings to Sect Master Yan, greetings to Young Master Tangyu. I am here under the orders of Liang King, bringing a congratulatory gift to congratulate the Yanshan Sect. There were some misunderstandings between our Liang Kingdom and Young Master Tangyu in the past. What is past is past. I hope Young Master Tangyu won't take it to heart."

These words were said with great reluctance, feeling a burning sensation on his face.

The envoy's words immediately caused a stir.

"Haha, did you hear that? Even Liang King has to send us a congratulatory gift for the Yanshan Sect."

"Strength, with strength comes status, comes dignity. Tangyu's current strength and potential are enough to intimidate Liang King, which is why Liang King is so courteous and friendly to Tangyu, right? Isn't it an obvious sign of submission, trying to curry favor with Tangyu?"

"Of course, doesn't Liang King need to seek favor? Tangyu single-handedly annihilated the Blood Demon Sect. With Tangyu's potential, within a year, he might have the strength to confront Liang Kingdom, right? By then, hehe—"

"Mighty, domineering, extraordinary, an idol."

"Incredible, if only I could have one-tenth of Tangyu's ability. No, no, even one percent would be enough."

"I'd be happy with one-thousandth."

Listening to the voices in the crowd, Bald Strong and his companions all had faces full of pride, especially Bald Strong, who was immensely smug and extremely excited, "Haha, the boss is the boss, following the boss was definitely the smartest decision of my life. I'm so proud; I'm simply too wise and brave."

This has brought immense benefits to Bald Strong. For instance, the powerful figures in the Yanshan Sect's ranks, who are listed on the hero board, are quite friendly when they see Bald Strong. Some even try to curry favor with him. Naturally, Bald Strong now enjoys unprecedented treatment.

The envoy from the Liang Kingdom's face flushed with embarrassment, but he could only endure in silence without daring to lose his temper.

Yan Nantian casually remarked, "I'll accept King Liang's congratulations, but I'll pass on the gift since I cannot afford it." Yan Nantian clearly did not have a pleasant expression for the envoy from the Liang Kingdom. Now that Tangyu, the Seafixing Divine Needle, was present, Yan Nantian was fearless. What of the Liang Kingdom? Now he had some confidence to contend with the Liang Kingdom.

Just a mere envoy from the Liang Kingdom, why should Yan Nantian pay him any heed? It's not about being arrogant; it's about the dignity of the Yanshan Sect. If Yan Nantian were to warmly welcome the envoy today, wouldn't it suggest the Yanshan Sect is too cowardly? The Liang Kingdom seeks to doom the Yanshan Sect, and the Yanshan Sect should grovel to the Liang Kingdom?

This was something Yan Nantian could never bring himself to do.

Upon hearing Yan Nantian's words, the envoy's face changed immediately, and a hint of anger erupted in his eyes. He suppressed the fury within him and said, "Sect Master Yan, having Liang Kingdom congratulate your Yanshan Sect is unprecedented. Such an exception is done out of respect for your Yanshan Sect, a blessing for you. Are you certain you want to reject King Liang's goodwill and invite disaster? King Liang is of high status, personally sending me to deliver this gift, yet is this how you treat me? I represent the face of King Liang; Sect Master Yan, isn't your head held a bit too high?"

Yan Nantian replied, "Very well then, leave the gift, and you can go. We haven't prepared a place for you, so be on your way. Everyone in the Yanshan Sect is busy, so we won't entertain you. Return the way you came, I'm sure you know the way."

Yan Nantian's words greatly relieved the disciples of the Yanshan Sect. Hahaha, who else but the Yanshan Sect dares to speak to the envoy from the Liang Kingdom like this?

"You—" The Liang Kingdom's envoy was instantly provoked, seething with rage, "Yan Nantian, are you really refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, so ungrateful? Does your little Yanshan Sect truly want to stand against my Liang Kingdom? Can your Yanshan Sect bear such consequences?"

Tangyu scoffed, "Relax, this trivial matter is within the Yanshan Sect's capabilities, no need for your concern. My master asked you to leave, and since you don't appreciate the chance, I'll personally throw you out. Your chirping is killing my buzz. Today is a joyous occasion for the Yanshan Sect, not a day for you to dampen our spirits. If you won't leave, I'll escort you out."

With that, Tangyu smirked, stood up, and approached.

Hearing Tangyu's words, the envoy's face turned eggplant purple, extremely unsightly. After all, he was a powerful figure in the Golden Core Realm, a special envoy sent by King Liang, representing his authority. How could someone dare treat him with such disrespect? This was tantamount to slapping King Liang's face, naturally enraging him. He glared furiously at Tangyu, "Tangyu, do you dare?"

"I am the envoy of the Liang Kingdom, representing the dignity of the Liang Kingdom. You better think clearly about the consequences of your actions!"

Tangyu smirked, "Oh, you represent the dignity of the Liang Kingdom? Perfect, I was just thinking of stomping on the dignity of the Liang Kingdom. Your words have motivated me even more." With that, Tangyu lunged directly at the envoy.

"You—" The envoy from the Liang Kingdom was instantly shocked and angry, immediately making his move. He was also a powerful figure of the Golden Core Sixth Layer, his strength not inferior to the Yanshan Sect Master.

Tangyu didn't bother with nonsense and attacked with full force, unleashing the Wheel Character Seal right away. Tangyu, now at the Golden Core Second Layer, possessed an unusually powerful Golden Core, so despite being at the Second Layer, his Golden Core Power was not below the Third Layer. Besides, he cultivated the Yin Yang Great Path, reached the initial stage of the Second Transformation in Divine Demon Body Refinement, and had the Undying Nine Transformations' Second Transformation, making the unleashed Wheel Character Seal extremely formidable.

Not to mention a mere Golden Core Sixth Layer, even the Seventh Level would be swept away.

The terrifying power erupted, engulfing the skies and earth, completely suppressing the void, shocking everyone immensely. Everyone directly witnessed Tangyu's overwhelming prowess.

Feeling the power of Tangyu's Wheel Character Seal, the envoy from the Liang Kingdom sensed danger. Indeed, upon engagement, he felt his strength being shattered instantly. This feeling was akin to a bicycle crashing into a car, fundamentally not on the same level.

So under the blast of Tangyu's Wheel Character Seal, the envoy was directly slammed flying, soaring high, and descending down the Yanshan Peak, soon disappearing from everyone's sight beyond the hilltop.

The guards who followed the envoy were completely dumbstruck, standing there dazed, each unsure of what to do.

Tangyu's gaze inadvertently swept over them, scaring the guards into running down the mountain without delay, not daring to stay any longer. If Tangyu decided to attack them, they couldn't withstand even one strike from him.
