Thump!

A muffled sound, Feng Cheng was directly suppressed and knelt on the ground.

Hum!

A palm imprint suddenly appeared, directly hitting Supreme Long Huang's chest.

Boom!

Supreme Long Huang's face changed, yet without the slightest resistance, he was fiercely slammed against the wall behind him!

"This youngster, he's the successor I chose, you dare to touch him, I'll kill you." A majestic and undeniable voice echoed in Supreme Long Huang's mind.

Supreme Long Huang's face greatly changed, looking at Jiang Chen in shock, his eyes revealing an incredibly unbelievable expression.

Considering that Jiang Chen had already reached the late stage of the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm at his current age, and adding the invincible potential Jiang Chen inadvertently revealed just now, Supreme Long Huang instantly understood!

"Who? Who is it?"

Feng Cheng knelt on the ground, utterly suppressed by the aura and unable to get up, panic written all over his face.

He was at the early stage of the Venerable Realm, but now he was suppressed by someone else's momentum to the point of being unable to rise. What kind of strength was needed to do that?!

A shock appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes, his brows tightly knit as the Blood Saber suddenly drew out a portion.

The faces of Feng Luan, Elder Qing, and the other zodiac guardians all changed, while Bing Lie also showed a look of shock, filled with caution. But when he saw the expressions of others, a flash of understanding dawned within him.

Whoosh!

Elder Qing let out a long breath, with this person stepping in, today's matter could be considered completely resolved, but...

Glancing at Jiang Chen, Elder Qing muttered to himself, "Kid, with this person intervening, you'd better respect him. If you are disrespectful to him, Supreme Long Huang and Supreme Phoenix Luan can tear you to pieces in minutes!"

"Mr Jiang, please come with young Long Huang, Long Huang, and Feng Luan for a talk, let's have a chat!" An old and kind voice echoed in Jiang Chen's mind.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned.

"Mr Jiang, how should Feng Cheng be dealt with? You decide," said Long Huang with a complicated gaze, bowing his hands to Jiang Chen in respect.

Jiang Chen was stunned, foolishly looking at Long Huang.

I decide? Is it because of that voice?

Feng Luan and the others all visibly shook, looking at Jiang Chen in astonishment. Those who knew the identity of that voice all showed a trace of understanding, with a touch of melancholy suddenly emerging from deep within.

Bing Lie's eyes revealed shock, silently putting Jiang Chen into the category of people absolutely not to be provoked!

"Supreme Long Huang, why? Why is this happening?" Feng Cheng's face turned pale, looking at Long Huang in panic.

Long Huang did not respond to Feng Cheng, instead continuing to look straight at Jiang Chen, while everyone else in the conference room had varying expressions as they looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen glanced over everyone, his brows slightly frowning. He opened his mouth but then fell silent again.

At this moment, no one else in the conference room spoke either, all quietly watching Jiang Chen, including Elder Qing who was closest to Jiang Chen.

Elder Qing was very aware that at this time, he couldn't offer any suggestion. It must be Jiang Chen who autonomously made this decision.

"Supreme Long Huang, what is the character of the people from Feng Cheng like?" Jiang Chen thought for a moment and then looked up at Supreme Long Huang.

Supreme Long Huang was slightly stunned, glanced at Feng Cheng, then turned to Elder Qing. As for Feng Cheng's character, he truly wasn't very clear.

Feng Cheng eagerly looked at Elder Qing, his eyes pleading.

His own life was firmly in Elder Qing's hands now. Jiang Chen asking like this must mean that his life or death would be determined by the answer!

Others, however, frowned slightly. In such a situation, the question Jiang Chen asked had a flavor of sowing discord.

Unsatisfaction flashed in Supreme Phoenix Luan's eyes as she narrowed them slightly to look at Jiang Chen.

"Feng Cheng..." Elder Qing looked at Feng Cheng, hesitation flickered in his eyes as he began to speak softly.

"No need to say anymore!" A faint voice interrupted, looking up at Supreme Long Huang, "Supreme Long Huang, kill him."

"Jiang Chen, Elder Qing has not yet answered—why do you want to kill me? Why ask a question if you won't listen to the answer?" Feng Cheng's face turned white as he shouted loudly.

He had been continuously suppressed by that ethereal aura, not even having a chance to resist, and could only rely on his mouth to try to find a way out!

"No need for an answer." Jiang Chen said indifferently, "I already know the answer—your character, it's really poor!"

"How do you know? You, you... I understand now! This is intentional! You had already decided to kill me, but you feared provoking Flame Dragon's animosity, so you played this trick, right?"

Feng Cheng had a sudden insight and called out righteously, "You truly are sinister, intentionally asking such a question. Even if you kill me without listening to the answer, it will make people think you did it because of my poor character, thus greatly reducing their hostility and disgust towards you! Well deserved, Family Head of the Jiang Family, chairman of the three major corporations, what deep schemes you have!"

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned and looked at Jiang Chen with a hint of disgust in their eyes.

"Since the decision is in my hands, if I say I'll kill you, then I'll kill you. As for whether they like or dislike me, does it matter? Anyway, in my eyes, besides Elder Qing, there isn't anyone here I like!" Jiang Chen said with a cold laugh.

Everyone's faces stiffened upon hearing this, realizing that their actions indeed hadn't been very likeable.

"Young Jiang, I know you are angry with these people, but... explain a bit, will you?"

Elder Qing reached out and tugged at Jiang Chen's arm, speaking softly in comfort, "Don't let Feng Cheng's rubbish scheme succeed. He guessed that you would definitely kill him, which is why he's deliberately driving a wedge between you and them. I know you don't like them, but... just give this old man some face, okay?"

After glancing at Elder Qing, Jiang Chen fell silent for a moment, then turned and coldly stared at Feng Cheng, "These people are somewhat pedantic, but you can see, they all became stubborn because they place too much emphasis on national integrity. They are not inherently bad!"

"However, when I asked the question, Supreme Long Huang might truly not have known, but Elder Qing hesitated. Not just Elder Qing, none of the others stood up for you. So, what does that indicate? It shows that in their eyes, your character is really not that good!"

"Moreover, you yourself are clear about how poor your character is; otherwise, when my question was asked, you wouldn't have been so nervous!"

"With these bases, that's enough. I don't need to listen to Elder Qing's answer, because from these factors, I have already gotten the answer!" Jiang Chen spoke dispassionately.

As Jiang Chen finished speaking, shock dawned on everyone's faces.

They indeed didn't like Jiang Chen's previous way of doing things, but Jiang Chen indeed hadn't been wrong—Feng Cheng's character wasn't that great.

And Jiang Chen, just based on these minutiae, could make such a deduction, revealing an extremely meticulous mind.

This was enough to amaze these old timers.

"Thud, thud, thud!"

At that moment, Feng Cheng suddenly began to kowtow toward Jiang Chen, his face filled with terror.
