37: Of course, I wouldn't dare!

Everyone's eyes had already fallen upon Chen Xian.

Compared to their previous mindset of just watching the fun, this time they were truly shocked!

Of course, the expressions of two people among them had become exceptionally ugly.

One was Liu Ruyan, and the other was Zi Yun.

Both women had an extraordinary relationship with Chen Xian; seeing him walk in side-by-side with Li Yu made them feel very uncomfortable.

And now, seeing Li Yu call Chen Xian 'husband' in public...

This clearly made them feel even more uneasy.

Liu Ruyan had even clenched her fists.

As for Chen Buyu, he also looked at his Great Nephew with a face full of bewilderment.

He had heard that after his eldest brother passed away, his Great Nephew had been living a miserable life here, which was why he had taken the initiative to volunteer to come and oversee Jubei City this time.

Dealing with demonic cultivators was one aspect.

His main thought was still to take good care of his Great Nephew to comfort his elder brother's soul in heaven.

But looking at it now, holy crap, how is this miserable?

This kid's life is better than anyone's!

Meanwhile, Chen Xian bore the weight of everyone's gaze, looking at Li Yu's teasing smile.

He thought to himself: 'Little lady, you're really digging a grave for me. If this continues, even if I get the spirit ginseng grass, I won't survive for more than a few days.'

However, given the current situation, even if he didn't step forward, it wouldn't make much difference.

Thinking of this...

Chen Xian stepped forward.

He strode up to Li Yu and gave her backside a fierce slap.

"You little minx, why are you acting up here? I'll show you when we get back tonight!"

*Hiss!*

Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded!

They thought Chen Xian either wouldn't have the guts to stand up—after all, Wang Li was practically the top dog of the Tianqi Sect, and aside from the princes of the Da Gan Dynasty, he had the most prominent status—

Or that he would be trembling and speechless after stepping forward.

They never expected Chen Xian to have this kind of attitude, coming up and slapping the Seventh Princess's bottom right away.

Many male cultivators seeing this...

Couldn't help but give him a mental thumbs-up. Holy crap, what a warrior!

In broad daylight, he hit someone else's Fiancée and even openly flirted with her!

At this moment, Li Yu's face also turned red.

This bastard actually dared to slap this princess's bottom in public.

How hateful, no one has ever dared to do such a thing!

Is it because I haven't told him my true family background?

But to keep up the act, she could only tightly grab Chen Xian's hand.

"Husband, I'll follow whatever you say!"

The flirtatious behavior of the two...

Made Wang Li completely lose his cool!

Dammit, you two dare to be like this right in front of me.

When I'm not around, what on earth must you two be like?

"Seventh Princess, you are my Fiancée!"

"And you, Chen Xian, you'd better recognize your own status!"

Chen Xian shrugged.

"Of course I recognize my status."

Chen Xian's gaze suddenly landed on Zhao Beishan.

"I am the son of the Marquis of Jubei and the nephew of Prince Wu, Zhao Beishan. Are these two identities enough?"

Zhao Beishan had originally been watching the show.

The reason he had made his son apologize quickly just now was because he knew they weren't the protagonists of this incident and there was no need to get involved in this muddy water.

The grievance his son suffered would naturally be settled by someone else!

He just truly hadn't expected this kid Chen Xian to be so good at riding on others' coattails!

To actually come out and claim to be his nephew!

"Chen Xian, I have no relation to you!"

Zhao Beishan quickly refuted the claim.

However, Chen Xian asked with a teasing look, "Strange, just a moment ago, weren't you saying you were my elder and I was your worthy nephew? Why is there no relation now?"

"It seems Prince Wu's style of doing things is to make friends only when they are useful!"

Chen Xian's words made Zhao Beishan's face turn incredibly ugly!

Damn, this is a blatant scheme.

After he said that, Zhao Beishan couldn't even argue back.

On one hand was his reputation, and on the other was offending Wang Li, a top-tier Young Master.

No matter which one it was, Zhao Beishan felt it was Hell-level difficulty.

Wait, wasn't Invincible Chen's son a love-struck idiot?

When did he become so shrewd?

So shrewd that he even felt a bit like a stranger!

After thinking it over, Zhao Beishan still gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master Wang, I have absolutely no relation to Chen Xian!"

He would never offend this Young Master for the sake of his so-called reputation!

As for Wang Li, he didn't care about Zhao Beishan's explanation.

He only knew that if he wanted to develop better and have a brighter future...

Then he had to marry this woman, Li Yu.

Especially since the Imperial Family also had this intention.

The only eyesore was Chen Xian!

His gaze turned cold as he looked at Chen Xian.

"Chen Xian, do you no longer wish to live?"

Chen Xian sneered and said, "I wonder what Young Master Wang means by that?"

"Li Yu is my Fiancée..."

"Oh? Did she agree?"

Chen Xian looked at Li Yu.

Li Yu shook her head and said, "I never agreed!"

"But His Majesty has already agreed."

Li Yu sneered and said, "Oh? Then where is the imperial decree?"

"Or do you think I am your stepping stone, someone you can use as you please?"

"Wang Li, I'm telling you today, I already have a husband. Whoever promised you this, go find them."

Wang Li's face was now deathly pale.

Dammit, where would there be an imperial decree!

If he couldn't even bring Li Yu back, he would not only become a laughingstock and a clown in the eyes of the Imperial Family, but his status and prestige within the Tianqi Sect would also be affected.

Since he couldn't handle Li Yu!

Then he could only handle Chen Xian.

"Chen Xian, I'm only asking you one thing: are you going to get lost or not?"

"If you don't, you will die!"

"Yo yo yo, so the Young Lord of the Tianqi Sect also knows how to pick on the weak!"

Since he had already offended him, Chen Xian wasn't afraid to offend him a bit more.

He sneered and said, "You can't handle the woman, so you come after me? You really are quite something. You can kill me if you want!"

"However..."

Chen Xian took out an iron medallion from his pocket.

"You'd better be able to ignore this!"

Everyone looked at the words on the iron medallion.

Immediately, they gasped in cold air!

"It's a Death-Exempt Iron Medallion!"

"A Death-Exempt Iron Medallion of the Da Gan Dynasty!"

When Wang Li saw this, his eyes also burst with fire.

His fists clenched so hard they made a cracking sound!

How could he have such a thing?

Seeing everyone's reaction, Chen Xian also breathed a sigh of relief.

He had found this in the underground palace of the back garden back then.

At that time, Chen Xian thought it was useless; he was a lone man, who would care about this thing?

He didn't expect it to come in handy today!

This thing essentially had no power of its own, but it represented imperial authority.

Now that the Da Gan Dynasty ruled the North Continent, who would dare to provoke the Emperor's majesty?

Wang Li's eyes were bloodshot as he stared fixedly at Chen Xian.

"I want to challenge you to a duel. Do you dare?"

Chen Xian smiled and said, "Of course I..."

"Don't!"

Please, you're the Young Lord of the Tianqi Sect, a Prodigy-like existence.

And what am I?

A Qi Refining Fourth Layer nobody!

Why would I duel you?
