Hearing these idle remarks, he wished he could immediately kill Lin Yifan, the bastard who caused his brother to be unable to cultivate from now on.

Long Tengyu ignored the astonished gazes of the crowd and brought Lin Yifan directly onto the stage, then announced publicly, "Ladies and gentlemen, friends and guests, the gentleman standing beside me, I believe many of you more or less recognize him, so I won't introduce him too much here. From now on, Mr. Lin is my brother, Long's. If anyone dares to disrespect him, they are disrespecting me, Long!"

Learning his surname was Lin, Tang Jing was greatly shocked; she knew few people with the surname Lin, and among them, the one who had left the deepest impression had been Lin Yifan, her classmate from junior high often bullied by others.

"Could it be him?"

Tang Jing couldn't imagine, couldn't believe that today's Lin Yifan had become so powerful, even the heir of the Long Family had to personally receive him.

At the same moment, her fiancé Zhao Yi had a face like a murderous fiend.

Dissatisfied with Long Tengyu's proclamation, he challenged, "What about me?"

"Brother Zhao is, of course, also my brother, Long's!" Long Tengyu avoided the question, wanting to dodge these sensitive topics.

However, these sensitive topics were bound to be unavoidable.

"I'm not asking whether I'm your brother or not, I'm asking what if I disrespect him? Would you move against me?" Zhao Yi inquired.

"Why would Brother Zhao want to disrespect Brother Lin?"

"Aren't you knowingly asking this question?"

"Alright! If Brother Zhao truly disrespects Brother Lin, then I will intervene to break up the conflict and mediate peace," Long Tengyu replied.

He didn't want to offend Lin Yifan nor Zhao Yi, and this answer was the best he had.

"Hmph! You might as well just stand by and do nothing," Zhao Yi scoffed disdainfully.

Long Tengyu, this insatiable little man, really wanted to take all the advantages for himself. Watching him made him feel disgusted.

"I wish I could say the same!" Lin Yifan also showed disdain.

To truly make friends, one must at least show some sincerity; such wavering and insecurity were unacceptable to him.

Both parties involved did not accept his method, leaving Long Tengyu frustrated.

Yet, this was the best solution he could think of; any more aggressive, and he would surely offend one of the two.

"Brother Lin, Brother Zhao, harmony brings wealth to the family, why engage in serious conflict?" Long Tengyu continued to persuade, really not wanting the situation to worsen.

"Who the hell is one family with him? Can you not disgust me, please?" Lin Yifan asked angrily, truly wanting to slap him away.

"I couldn't agree more! Long Tengyu, for the love of God, stop disgusting me with your nonsense. Not all good things are yours to take," Zhao Yi joined in the reproach.

At this point, Long Tengyu also got angry, "Fine! Since the two of you so wish to fight, then go ahead, I don't care anymore."

His well-intentioned mediation only brought dirt upon him, as if his good heart was taken for donkey's lungs.

With Long Tengyu, the meddler, out of the picture, Zhao Yi became more emboldened and immediately confronted Lin Yifan, "You injured my brother, causing him to be unable to cultivate ever again; how do you want to settle this debt?"

Tang Jing was startled to discover that the familiar yet unfamiliar man on stage was the culprit who had harmed Zhao Yi's brother.

She had heard about Zhao Yi's brother's incident, and the Zhao Family claimed that the fault lay with the one who had acted, leading her to be misled into thinking the blame was indeed on the aggressor.

"By not killing him, I was already being merciful," Lin Yifan replied coldly and dominantly.

All the heirs from the powerful clans present inhaled sharply at such a domineering statement; one had to have a tremendous amount of confidence to utter such words!

"How could he be so malevolent? He definitely can't be the Lin classmate I knew!" Tang Jing felt disgusted, suddenly feeling a strong aversion to Lin Yifan.

"What the hell are you? Do you think you can just kill my brother whenever you want? You really don't know what's good for you!" Zhao Yi cursed angrily.

"Your brother's life was worthless. Why couldn't I kill him?" Lin Yifan retorted without fear.

That calm response of his infuriated Zhao Yi.

"You... You... I'm going to kill you!"

The next moment, Zhao Hong could no longer restrain himself, and he threw the wine glass filled with red wine in his hand to the floor; then, clenching his fist, he hurled a punch at Lin Yifan.

It was his full-strength punch, imbued with the power of the Divine Transformation First Realm Middle Stage, terrifying to the extreme.

"Zhao Yi is taking action himself. It seems that the Lord of the Chaotic World is in trouble!"

Why would they say that? Because, as far as they knew, Lin Yifan had only the strength of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm, and although he could defeat Song Baoshi who was at the early stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm, facing Zhao Yi, a cultivator who had stepped into the middle stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm, he definitely wouldn't stand a chance, at least not in a fierce battle.

"It's also about time someone taught this arrogant jerk a lesson!"

"I hope Zhao Yi can knock him down with a single punch!"

...

Almost all the scions of the clans wished for Lin Yifan to run into trouble, bearing no good will toward him.

Meanwhile, Lu Qiu Shaoge and Long Tengyu just quietly watched from the sidelines; for them, it didn't matter who won today.

"Brother Long, who do you think will win?" Lu Qiu Shaoge asked curiously.

"Hard to say! I always feel Brother Lin won't be that easy to deal with," Long Tengyu replied.

Today, when he encountered Lin Yifan, he clearly felt that Lin Yifan's aura was different from two months ago; thus, he didn't know how strong Lin Yifan was now.

Lu Qiu Shaoge thought the same, ever since he found out Lin Yifan had advanced to the peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm, he believed that cultivators at the middle stage of the Divine Transformation First Realm were no longer a match for Lin Yifan.

The reason he asked was because Zhao Yi was also a tough cookie. Moreover, according to rumors from outside sources, Zhao Yi had already broken through to the peak of the Divinity Transformation First Realm. So, he truly didn't know who would win or lose when the two clashed.

The outcome was going to be clear very soon; everyone held their breath and watched intently.

As the target of the attack, Lin Yifan was calm from beginning to end.

Zhao Yi was indeed very strong, but Lin Yifan was no pushover either; so, facing Zhao Yi's provocation, he would strike mercilessly, leaving no chance for Zhao Yi to turn the tables.

Consequently, he decisively unleashed his Witchcraft Palm to counter Zhao Yi's all-out punch.

"Boom!"

The next moment, when the two collided, Zhao Yi, who had launched his full-strength attack, was sent flying by Lin Yifan's palm and smashed numerous dining tables.

Looking at this scene, everyone exchanged glances, no longer daring to underestimate Lin Yifan.

"Damn it, wasn't he just at the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm? How could he be so strong?"

"This is unreal!"

"Too terrifying! With that kind of strength, even if Long Tengyu made a move, he might not be his opponent!"

The clan scions exclaimed in amazement.

Long Tengyu's current realm was at the peak of the Divine Transformation First Realm, and Lin Yifan's palm strike just now had at least the strength of the peak of the Divine Transformation First Realm; so to say, even Long Tengyu might not be a match for the Lord of the Chaotic World.
