Lu Pan's words sent a ripple of uproar through the entire venue!
What was Yun Chuxue's status? Who among those present didn't know her future husband would be Lu Hao or Nalan Wuye!
And now, an unknown figure like Lu Pan emerged, intending to snatch the bride from the Lu and Nalan families?
Wasn't that akin to carrying a lantern into a latrine, inviting trouble!
Even though Lu Pan had seized the deed to the Lu family's ancestral home at the Yun Shang Auction House and crippled Lu Hao's arm, they still didn't believe Lu Pan could contend with the two great families!
Whispers spread amongst the crowd.
Both Lu Hao and Nalan Wuye felt their faces burning, as if Yun Chuxue had publicly cuckolded them with a vibrant green hat.
Yun Chuxue's cheeks flushed, her heart pounding rapidly. She hadn't expected Lu Pan to publicly declare her his woman!
This unprecedented sense of security made her both worried and inexplicably at ease.
Lu Hao recognized Lu Pan, and the sight of his enemy ignited a furious glare!
"It's you!" Lu Hao's face contorted in a vicious sneer, his voice seething, "You little bastard, you crippled my arm yesterday, and today I will make you pay a hundredfold!!"
"How dare you insult the Great Chief, slap his face!"
Ye Wudao instantly appeared before Lu Hao and delivered a resounding slap!
The blow was merciless, sending Lu Hao flying six to seven meters away, half his face a bloody, gruesome mess, a terrifying sight.
Such a brutal and bloody scene shocked everyone into silence!
Lu Hao scrambled to his feet, howling, and desperately yelled at his bodyguards, "Kill him! Whoever kills him, I'll give ten million... no... a hundred million!!"
Lu Hao was filled with murderous intent towards Lu Pan; only by killing him could his burning hatred be extinguished.
The promise of a hundred million instantly made many in the crowd's eyes gleam with avarice!
The Lu family bodyguards lunged at Ye Wudao like famished wolves.
Alas, before they could even touch the hem of Ye Wudao's clothes, they were sent flying by him.
In a brief exchange, over a dozen bodyguards were left with broken limbs, writhing on the ground in agony.
"Too presumptuous!"
At this moment, a burly middle-aged man stepped forward, glaring at Ye Wudao, "This is the Qingcheng Chamber of Commerce's banquet. It's not your place to be so audacious, you mere nobody. I shall teach you a lesson on behalf of Young Master Lu! Take this!!"
With that, the middle-aged man charged towards Ye Wudao, stirring up a gust of wind. His stance suggested he was a martial artist who had just entered the realm of Dark Energy!
Ye Wudao looked at the incoming fist with a cold expression. Just as the fist was about to strike his chest.
Ye Wudao bent his knees and attacked, with lightning speed!
*Crack—*
The strike directly shattered the man's sternum.
Simultaneously, Ye Wudao’s leg whipped out, sending the middle-aged man flying into the crowd, his fate uncertain!!
Yun Chuxue's eyes sparkled with admiration. She hadn't expected Lu Pan's associate to be so formidable.
Initially, she had worried about implicating Lu Pan and drawing the wrath of the Lu and Nalan families upon him.
Now, it seemed he possessed the means to protect himself, bringing her some peace of mind.
Lu Pan stood up and walked towards Yun Chuxue.
The crowd quickly retreated, not daring to approach, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire.
Lu Pan gazed at the flushed Yun Chuxue, reached out, and cupped her chin. He surveyed her face, which ignited a wicked flame within him, and declared domineeringly, "Tonight, accompany me!"
Yun Chuxue was taken aback by Lu Pan's direct and brazen words, her face instantly flushing as if it could bleed.
When had anyone in Qingcheng ever seen Yun Chuxue like this!
"Absurd!" Nalan Wuye roared, his face a mask of indignant shame, "Kid, let go of Chuxue!"
Yun Chuxue snapped back to reality and quickly pushed Lu Pan's hand away.
Yun Chuxue's reaction further solidified Nalan Wuye's suspicions; she was merely startled by the man's sudden action!
"Kid, you're seeking death!" Nalan Wuye was enraged. Yun Chuxue was his intended fiancée.
And here was Lu Pan, openly harassing her in front of him.
With that, Nalan Wuye directly attacked Lu Pan.
"This fellow is unlikely to escape this predicament. Young Master Nalan is a martial arts prodigy!"
"Indeed, let's see how Young Master Nalan smashes that guy's head with a single punch!"
Facing Nalan Wuye's powerful punch, Lu Pan sneered, "Overestimating yourself!"
These simple four words seemed to unleash an invisible force upon Nalan Wuye.
*Boom—*
The force directly impacted him, leaving him bleeding from the head!
"For Nalan Mingyue's sake, I'll spare your life!" Lu Pan said coldly, looking at the disheveled Nalan Wuye.
With that, Lu Pan took Yun Chuxue's hand and walked towards Lu Hao, who lay on the ground with bloodshot eyes.
He looked down from above, at Lu Hao, who was like a mangy dog, "Lu Hao, I won't let you die. I will keep you alive to play with you slowly, to let you taste suffering!"
The next second, Lu Pan delivered a thunderous kick, directly shattering Lu Hao's arm, which was in a cast!
*Ah—*
The piercing scream was abruptly cut short as Lu Hao fainted!
Everyone shivered!
Crippling Lu Hao, beating Nalan Wuye.
Lu Pan was too ruthless. On what basis did he dare to do this?!
"Call the police!"
Someone shouted from the crowd, and with a whoosh, dozens of armed police officers burst in, surrounding the scene.
Lu Pan's expression was cold, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
"Who called the report?!" Li Wei's commanding voice echoed from outside the door.
Then, Li Wei, his head bandaged, stepped into the banquet hall.
Immediately after, he saw Lu Pan standing there with a look of indifference, his eyes filled with murderous intent!
Li Wei shivered, almost wetting himself!
The events at the Mo family a few days prior were an unforgettable nightmare for him!
Coupled with the murder of the Xu family head and the crippling of Xu Ziqiang and Xu Zichuan, Li Wei knew well that the Xu family had offended an unfathomable powerful figure!!
"Officer Li, it's him... he injured Young Master Lu and Young Master Nalan!"
Someone, attempting to curry favor with the Lu and Nalan families, or perhaps eyeing Lu Hao's hundred million bounty, quickly reported to Li Wei.
"Damn your mother!" Li Wei cursed the informant in his heart and raised his hand, delivering a vicious slap.
"Shit, why didn't I see him make a move?" Li Wei unleashed all his fear onto the informant.
He hoped to seize this opportunity to appease Lu Pan, otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
After the slap, Li Wei was still not appeased. He sternly ordered, "I suspect this person of malicious slander. Take him back for questioning!"
"Ah... Officer Li, I'm telling the truth... Wu wu..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was dragged away.
Having done all this, Li Wei shivered and looked at Lu Pan subserviently, his voice exceedingly humble, "Sir... Sir, you must have been frightened. Dealing with people like this is the police's job."
Lu Pan didn't even glance at Li Wei. Holding Yun Chuxue's hand, he asked, "Are you coming with me?"
Yun Chuxue nodded, her face flushed.
"Xue'er!" Yun Muyie suddenly called out.
Yun Chuxue's delicate body trembled slightly. She turned to look at her white-haired grandfather, her eyes welling up with tears, "Grandfather, I'm sorry, Xue'er doesn't want to be a tool for family marriage..."
