Seeing that the strong and craftsmen of Jiangnan City dared not speak further, Yun Rui was immediately very proud, raising his eyebrows.
Their Yunmeng City’s overall strength was far greater than Jiangnan City’s.
Even if they blatantly cheated, what could Jiangnan City do to them!
Did the people of Jiangnan City dare to forcibly keep the Mu Wang Ding?
Hmph, they wouldn't dare even if they had ten times the courage.
Just as the strong and craftsmen of Jiangnan City were filled with anger but dared not speak,
A childish voice rang out, "Grandpa, they are cheating. Shame, shame. We all saw the Mu Wang Ding become even more powerful. Why are they saying that Brother Ling damaged the Mu Wang Ding? They are unreasonable. Teacher said this is wrong."
A six or seven-year-old, exquisitely carved little girl tilted her head and asked her grandfather.
Her voice was not loud, but in the silent venue at this moment, it was clearly audible.
Immediately, the little girl's grandfather's expression changed. He quickly covered the little girl's mouth.
But it was too late.
Yun Rui's pea-like eyes glared fiercely.
The little girl immediately burst into tears in fright.
The little girl's grandfather, enduring the heartache, quickly apologized, "Young City Lord Yun, please be magnanimous. My granddaughter is just a child, her words are innocent, innocent!"
"Hmph!"
"I'll let you off this time. If you can't control your granddaughter's mouth again, I'll help you manage it!"
Yun Rui swept across the people of Jiangnan City triumphantly and said, "Whoever dares to speak nonsense again, I'll smash their mouths!"
Yun Qianlang said, "Our Yunmeng City's town treasure, the Mu Wang Ding, is severely damaged. Today's meeting will end here. Tomorrow, we still have to rush back to Yunmeng City to report this matter to the City Lord. As for Ling Fan's crime of damaging the Mu Wang Ding, we will not pursue it further out of consideration for Jiangnan City and all of you! Master Zheng, what do you think?"
Yun Qianlang looked at Zheng Bilie.
Zheng Bilie nodded, "Vice City Lord, please decide."
The two sang in harmony.
The strong and craftsmen of Jiangnan City sighed in their hearts. It seemed that they could not get justice for Ling Fan today.
Who told Yunmeng City to be stronger than Jiangnan City.
Therefore, even though they knew they were distorting the facts, they could do nothing about it.
Lan Tianxiong couldn't help but sigh.
Lan Junjie was extremely stifled.
He kicked a stool in the front row fiercely.
"Oh dear, my nephew, do you have a problem with me? I was just speaking ill of your brother-in-law, but didn't I apologize to Old Xiong later? Do you have to hold such a grudge?"
The people in the front row almost fell on their butts.
Lan Tianxiong glared at him and said, "Sit down. Have you forgotten what your brother-in-law taught you? A man needs some composure and foresight. If you're always so impetuous, how can you achieve anything great! Learn more from your brother-in-law."
Speaking of this, Lan Tianxiong looked at Ling Fan with concern.
He saw that Ling Fan's expression was still calm, and his eyes were deep.
He was not enraged because the Yun family and Zheng Bilie reneged on their deal.
He slowly raised his eyes and looked at Yun Qianlang, "Are you sure you won't leave the Mu Wang Ding behind?"
Yun Qianlang's brows immediately furrowed, and his expression was very unpleasant.
For some reason, Ling Fan's calmness made him feel a trace of inexplicable unease.
But then he dismissed this ridiculous thought of unease.
What was there to be afraid of in a mere good-for-nothing?
Let alone Ling Fan, even the Lan family behind Ling Fan, or even Jiangnan City, Yun Qianlang was not afraid of them at all.
"Ridiculous, the Mu Wang Ding belongs to our Yunmeng City. It did, it does, and it will always be. Don't you, a green-mouthed youth, have any designs on it!"
Ling Fan frowned imperceptibly.
A trace of cold light flashed.
His voice became a little colder, and he said, "No one can take my things without paying a price. I hope you and Yunmeng City can bear the consequences."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at him in astonishment.
The people of Yunmeng City all laughed!
No one took Ling Fan's words seriously.
The threat of a good-for-nothing was worse than an itch.
"Heh heh, I'm so scared. Uncle, was he just threatening our Yunmeng City?"
Yun Rui burst into laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke.
Yun Qianlang sneered and remained silent.
Zheng Bilie, Zheng Bicheng, Wu Yunfeng, Jin Wudao, and others also scoffed.
This young man must have been too anxious and spoke carelessly.
How dare he threaten Yunmeng City? Did he have the standing to do so?
Indeed, he had some skill in weapon forging and mental power, but in terms of his own strength, he was not much stronger than a chicken or a dog.
To put it bluntly, Ling Fan's threat was as weak and powerless as cotton to them.
Yun Qianlang glanced at Ling Fan, "If anyone else dared to say this to me, I would have killed him on the spot. But for a martial arts cripple like you, I'll just consider you to be farting. Bring out whatever moves you have. In this regard, our Yunmeng City Yun family has never feared anyone, hahahaha!"
Amidst a burst of harsh laughter, the people of Yunmeng City left with great arrogance.
Their demeanor was extremely arrogant.
After the people of Yunmeng City had left for a while, the Tianxiang Tower finally erupted with a wave of angry voices.
"Damn it, these people from Yunmeng City are too shameless!"
"Too overbearing."
"These bastards, I wish I could smash their stinky faces with one punch."
"It's one thing to be untrustworthy, but they shamelessly slandered our Master Ling for damaging their Mu Wang Ding! If it weren't for Master Ling, the Mu Wang Ding would have remained dusty for who knows how long."
The strong and craftsmen of Jiangnan City were furious.
"However, it's fortunate that Master Ling took action this time, preventing these people from Yunmeng City from stepping on us."
"That's right. If it weren't for Master Ling, our Jiangnan City's weapon forging world would have lost all face this time."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
The last time the Jin and Lan families competed in forging, everyone was merely surprised by Ling Fan's forging skills.
But this time, Ling Fan had restored the honor of the entire Jiangnan City weapon forging world, and all these craftsmen felt sincere admiration and respect for Ling Fan.
The attendees gradually dispersed.
Ling Fan stood quietly in the suddenly empty venue, his gaze distant, as if lost in thought.
Lan Junjie was about to go over and comfort him, but Lan Tianxiong shook his head and pulled him away.
"I can feel that you really want that Mu Wang Ding."
A sweet voice came from behind.
Ling Fan turned around, and Lan Xueyi stood there prettily behind him.
Ling Fan nodded and said, "I do need it."
"Don't be too sad. I will work hard to find you a similar or even more powerful treasure in the future," Lan Xueyi said earnestly.
Ling Fan looked at Lan Xueyi with some surprise, shook his head, and smiled, "What's there to be sad about? The Mu Wang Ding is just not in my hands for the time being. I will get it back soon."
"Boasting without shame!"
Lan Xueyi playfully wrinkled her delicate nose.
Ling Fan smiled and offered no explanation.
He was actually thinking at that moment whether he should go and retrieve the Mu Wang Ding tonight.
Yun Qianlang was a martial arts master in the middle stage of the Profound Gang realm, which was a bit troublesome, but only a little bit of trouble.
