Han Family.
Looking at the body of the sixth-level Snake Demon on the ground, everyone was unsettled.
That was a sixth-level Magical Beast!
Every part of such a level of Magical Beast was a treasure.
With the sixth-level Demon Core in his hand, Han Chi was also not calm. He wasn't excited because of the sixth-level Magical Beast, but because of Xu Ran's arrival. He had known from the letter sent by Han Yue earlier that their Han Family had struck it rich. Now, it was just the beginning.
"Big Brother, the Hong Family has some connections with Feng Lei Pavilion, and now that Hong Chen has died at our Han Family's hands, won't we offend Feng Lei Pavilion? We can't afford to offend the Elder from Feng Lei Pavilion," a Han Family Elder said.
The others also calmed down from their excitement, bearing looks of suppression and difficulty.
An influence as powerful as Feng Lei Pavilion was too strong for their Han Family.
"Feng Lei Pavilion? The strength of Feng Lei Pavilion is indeed formidable, but now it's nothing to us," Han Chi said with a playful tone. In the future, their Han Family would become the absolute overlord of Tianbei City; even if they just had Xu Ran, that would be enough for them to dominate.
"Big Brother, what do you mean?" the heads of the Han Family were all dumbfounded.
Not taking Feng Lei Pavilion seriously?
Was this still their Big Brother?
Initially, to prevent Hong Chen from pestering Han Yue, Han Chi had agreed to send Han Yue to study at Canaan Academy far away. Just a Hong Chen gave them so much trouble, not to mention Feng Lei Pavilion.
In Zhongzhou, how many dared not to take Feng Lei Pavilion seriously?
Han Xue was also stunned. Why had her father become so confident? Could it be that he also knew about Xu Ran's strength and had known for a long time? And only she was kept in the dark?
It was not surprising for Han Xue, as not many in the Han Family knew about this matter. Only Han Chi and a few of the Han Family's centenarian ancestors were aware.
The reason why they didn't expose Xu Ran's identity was to prevent people from gossiping.
With such a terrifyingly strong person, he dared not casually use someone else's name.
Indeed, even though Han Yue was now Xu Ran's woman, Han Chi did not dare to assume the role of Xu Ran's father-in-law. Maybe Xu Ran would give Han Chi some face, but Han Chi himself must be clear about his own place.
If he thought that his daughter being with Xu Ran meant he could rest easy and start causing trouble everywhere, it would only lead to worsening their relationship with Xu Ran and bring unnecessary trouble to Han Yue.
Even if Xu Ran cherished his own daughter, he would be irritated in such a situation.
As her maternal family, they amounted to nothing in front of Xu Ran; if they couldn't support Han Yue, the least they could do was not to make a fool of themselves and embarrass her. Otherwise, Han Yue wouldn't be able to hold her head up in Xu Ran's presence in the future.
Therefore, Han Chi had never thought of publicizing his relationship with Xu Ran.
However, he was willing to use Xu Ran's strength to knock some sense into other forces. If they wiped out the Hong Family and Feng Lei Pavilion also came to join the fray, then they could teach Feng Lei Pavilion a lesson. By then, no one would dare to mess with the Han Family. At that time, the Han Family's influence could spread around, not just in Tianbei City but in the entire Northern Domain. That's the confidence that comes from having a super-strong backer.
"Big Brother, do you mean... that expert named Xu Ran that Yue'er brought back is very special? And he can help us resolve this trouble with Feng Lei Pavilion?" Han Tian, Han Chi's brother, asked with a High-rank Dou Huang "Cultivation Level."
The others' eyes also lit up.
They were also very excited about the super expert Han Yue had brought back.
Being able to deal with so many experts simultaneously, one must be at least at the pinnacle of Dou Huang, possibly even a Dou Zong Expert.
The emergence of a Dou Zong could help the Han Family become powerful.
But faced with the suppression from Feng Lei Pavilion, is an ordinary Dou Zong really enough?
"Even if the master of Feng Lei Pavilion came, he would not be his match. From now on, Xu Ran will be a distinguished guest of our Han Family. Be careful in your reception and make no mistakes," Han Chi said.
No matter how impressive Feng Lei Pavilion is, can it compare to Soul Hall?
Soul Hall itself was toyed with by others, now not daring to utter a sound; what's Feng Lei Pavilion in comparison?
A minor power that doesn't even have a Dou Sheng dares to show off in the Han Family?
Although Han Chi's own strength was not high and his family did not have many experts, this did not prevent him from having high standards now. He was very clear that in the eyes of someone like Xu Ran, there was not much difference between the Han Family and Feng Lei Pavilion.
"What? The master of Feng Lei Pavilion is a Dou Zun. Big brother, have you got it wrong?"
Everyone in the room was shocked by Han Chi's words.
If they did not know Han Chi's character, they might have thought that there was something wrong with his brain, or that the formidable enemy of Feng Lei Pavilion scared him out of his wits?
"Could it be that behind Xu Ran stands a powerful force?" An Elder said, coming to the realization late.
At that moment, everyone else in the room also caught on.
Yes, such a young talent is much more impressive than Hong Chen.
Such a prodigy would have no problem entering the top forces in Zhongzhou.
"A power stronger than Feng Lei Pavilion, could it be Soul Hall?" Although Soul Hall had become a joke in Zhongzhou now, that was only in relation to those great powers. The news of Soul Hall suffering a destructive blow was naturally not something that people from the Han Family would know.
"Er..."
Han Chi was stunned for a moment. It seemed that there was no mistake—Xu Sect under Xu Ran could be said to be the strongest force in existence, according to what Han Yue had told him, with dozens of Dou Sheng Experts, something he could not even dare to imagine.
"Anyway, you only need to know that Xu Ran is very powerful," Han Chi coughed lightly.
"Big brother, the man is already betrothed to Yue'er, and you're going to be his father-in-law. Is such reverence necessary? At the very least, you're his elder in name," some teased.
Hearing Han Chi's honorific address for Xu Ran, everyone felt it was strange.
Usually, when someone comes to marry a daughter, they act very humble and try to please in every way. How did it become like this in the Han Family?
The Han family was considered a reputable family, and Han Yue was known to be a great beauty... They really couldn't figure out where things had gone wrong.
"Cough cough. What do you guys know?"
Han Chi felt somewhat embarrassed. But he didn't feel any shame at all. Dou Di! That's a Dou Di! That was legendary! What shame? Even if his daughter were to serve such a big shot as a concubine, he would feel proud.
Han Yue stood there, watching her father's flamboyant maneuvers and was dumbfounded. She knew Xu Ran was formidable, but she hadn't thought he'd be to this extent. Even her own father... Han Xue thought of the phrase "bending over backwards."
The man had taken a liking to one's daughter, could he afford to act high and mighty? What if he simply left because of it? Wouldn't that be a massive loss?
