Chapter 1142 1122: Banquet Ends, Come With Me!
At the same time, they were also very fortunate!Originally, after Lei Zhentian gained Martin's favor by stepping on Ye Huan and praising Martin, they regretted not being the first to challenge Ye Huan, not being the first to insult Ye Huan!
Now, they felt immensely fortunate that they hadn't been the first to target Ye Huan publicly!
Targeting the Saint of Huaxia was simply a suicidal act!!!
Feeling fortunate, they were also somewhat regretful and one by one gave themselves three hard slaps!
If only they had the foresight to recognize Ye Huan as the World Emperor in advance and spoke up for him, they would have already gained the Saint's favor and become a friend of the Saint, securing a great future for development!
Alas, why was their insight so poor!
Previously, they ridiculed Shen Dahai for "colluding with Ye Huan" and being treated differently by Martin. They thought the Shen Family would definitely decline and be divided among the major families of the Ancient Martial Realm.
It was truly laughable!
Among all the major families present, only the Shen Family stood on the same front as Ye Huan, so the Shen Family was sure to gain Ye Huan's friendship!
After today, even if the future of the Shen Family isn't described as soaring high, it can definitely be said to dominate the entire Huaxia Ancient Martial Realm!
"Patriarch Shen, please forgive me, earlier it was that fool Martin who deceived me, making me look down on you with dog's eyes. I'm truly sorry!"
"Patriarch Shen, I've heard that among the young generation of your Shen Family, except for your niece Tao Yuan, all are male. Coincidentally, I have more than twenty daughters, perhaps they could have a look at your family's young men?"
"Patriarch Shen, if there's anything my family lacks it's certainly not money. I beg you, forgive me and establish an allied cooperative relationship with us. From now on, all the logistical support work of the Shen Family will be covered by us, all the money Shen Family spends will be on our tab..."
"Patriarch Shen..."
The senior members of the major families in the Ancient Martial Realm, knowing they could not gain the Saint's forgiveness and friendship, shamelessly went to the round table in the corner to flatter Shen Dahai, in an attempt to indirectly gain Ye Huan's forgiveness and win Ye Huan's favor!
Shen Dahai snorted angrily, ignoring these opportunistic people. However, one must say, his heart was indescribably delighted.
The indignation he felt when being targeted by the entire scene, and treated differently by Martin, vanished after Ye Huan's identity was revealed, and all his pent-up anger was completely released!
At this moment, tables numbered 188 and 189, the most remote from the main stage, became the focus of the entire scene!
In the Ma Family's estate, the original VIP table settings were those closer to the main stage.
Now, those tables were of no interest to anyone, with everyone avoiding them for fear of getting too close to the Ma Family and catching bad luck!
The tables that were once looked down upon, farther from the main stage and closer to tables 188 and 189, suddenly became the sought-after spots. Everyone wanted a place to get close and flatter Shen Dahai!
The power of the Saint is just that immense!
The title of being a friend of the Saint carries just that strong of an appeal!
Not only did everyone want to curry favor with Shen Dahai, but they also cursed the Ma Family in their hearts!
This family is simply disgusting!
They allowed their disciples to impersonate a friend of the Saint, organizing this so-called grand feast to deceive the Ancient Martial Realm, tricking the treasures from every ancient martial family. It's simply unforgivable!
Moreover, Martin, as a member of the eight major ancient martial families of the Southwest, even visits prostitutes without paying, which is extremely disgraceful, tarnishing the image of the entire Huaxia Ancient Martial Realm!
If the hair salons and clubs of Huaxia unite to ban ancient martial artists from entering, how could everyone secretly go downhill for some thrills?!
The patriarchs of each major family became more infuriated the more they thought about it, rushing onto the main stage to unleash a flurry of punches and kicks on Martin, casting an angry glare at Ma Pufang before taking back their treasures and cheerfully placing them on the Shen Family's table, number 188.
"Patriarch Shen, we were not gifting the Ma Family earlier, but intending to let them open their eyes, then turning and giving it to your Shen Family, to make the Ma Family die of envy!" someone flattered with a grin.
Suddenly, the Ma Family was at risk of being attacked by everyone.
The Shen Family, by standing with the Saint, leaped from being attacked by all to a position where everyone was trying to curry favor!
On the main stage, Ma Pufang looked incredibly embarrassed, his face turned a livid color, twisted and furious, his hair stood on end as his throat emitted low growls of anger, with bulging veins on his arms, thighs, and forehead!
He glared at Martin, who was prone on the ground murmuring "it's over, it's over" with vacant eyes, and couldn't help but be overwhelmed by immense killing intent.
Martin was already in a panic, but not due to Ma Pufang's killing intent, it was because of Ye Huan's identity!
The Saint of Huaxia!
Martin started wailing loudly. He initially planned to impersonate a friend of the Saint to deceive the entire Ancient Martial Realm of Huaxia, accumulating wealth, and indulging in pleasures. Then, after the Saint discovered him, he intended to flee with the riches and live a life of luxury.
He never expected that the Saint was right beside him, witnessing the whole process of his deception!
All because he was jealous of Ye Huan's excellence. When he met Ye Huan, he pretended to be a friend of the Saint and boasted in front of Ye Huan, claiming Ye Huan was not as good as him, let alone Li Hao;
What a joke!
In truth, he was just a fake friend of the Saint. How could he compare with the real Saint of Huaxia!!!
Even if given a hundred years, Ye Huan couldn't have grown to the point where all the young ancient martial artists of the realm would approach him with admiration and flattery?
Ridiculous! Now that Ye Huan's identity as a Saint is exposed, his identity as a fake is also exposed. The end result would inevitably be young female ancient martial artists collectively pursuing Ye Huan, trying desperately to get close to him!
As for him, he plummeted from the peak to the depths, becoming everyone's target.
Despite humiliating Ye Huan through differential treatment;
His immature "humiliation" plan, in Ye Huan's eyes, was probably nothing more than a complete joke!
Ye Huan previously didn't retaliate, surely because, in his eyes, Martin's actions were no different from a clown's act!
Doing so many things against the Saint of Huaxia, he really was a fool, a super ultimate fool, truly a brainless idiot!
"Ah!!!!"
Martin cried uncontrollably, rolling on the main stage, engulfed in deep regret and despair.
At this moment, the two salon girls, following a signal from Di Yuntian's eyes, rushed onto the main stage, starting to kick and punch Martin while shouting hoarsely, "Pay up, you bastard, hurry and pay the whoring fees and room charges!!!"
"Enough!!!"
Ma Pufang shouted sternly, stopping the two women, and tossed a bank card to their feet, covering Martin's expenses!
She had no choice; if these two women continued to cause trouble at the Ma Family, it would become the biggest joke in the history of the Ancient Martial Realm on the Huaxia land in thousands of years, subjected to ridicule by all ancient martial artists, becoming a target of universal mockery!
After the two salon girls left the stage satisfied, Ma Pufang, with eyes full of furious fire, glared at the sneering Di Yuntian before turning back abruptly and slapped Martin angrily, saying, "Why are you crying, tell me! What exactly have you done, and why did you pretend to be a friend of the Saint!"
"For what else?" Di Yuntian answered for Martin with fake "kindness," teasingly saying: "This good son of yours, on the night before the young ancient martial artists entered the First Emperor's Tomb led by Kui Xinghe, went crazy all night in the hotel with these two ladies. The next day, while others went into the tomb, he slept in the hotel. Afraid of your scolding, he lied to you saying he had gained the Saint's friendship, received the Saint's recognition. What followed, gave rise to everything after. Ma Pufang, I have to say, you truly have a good son."
"Is everything he says true?"
Ma Pufang's tone, strangely, calmed down in Di Yuntian's words, and the fire in her eyes subsided.
But only those familiar with her knew she was truly angry, furious to the extreme!
Martin, with a fearful look in his eyes, dared not lie, tremblingly nodded while crying.
Ma Pufang's face suddenly showed a violent expression, full of ferocity, raising her hand and slapping towards Martin with terrifying might!
Her strength has reached the Half-step Divine King Level!
With the fall of this slap, Martin let out a tortured scream full of endless regret and despair, painfully turning into a mist of blood, dissipating between heaven and earth.
In his last moments, he deeply wished he had confessed his mistakes to Ma Pufang voluntarily back in Chang'an.
If that were the case, the Ma Family's grand celebration banquet would never have happened, and he wouldn't have offended Ye Huan, this top giant with the identity of a Saint of Huaxia!
Ma Pufang suppressed her anger, picked up the microphone, and said gloomily to everyone present: "This banquet is over, thank you all for coming, no need to see you off!"
After speaking, she called for medical staff to take away the Ma Family's eight strong members, then also put down the microphone and left with anger.
But after just a few steps, before getting off the stage steps, she halted, turned her head, coldly asked Jiang Shishuang: "You, should leave with Ye Huan, right?"
Jiang Shishuang bowed her head, with a complex expression, clenched fists, remained silent, without answering.
At this time, Ye Huan, under the eyes of many, walked slowly onto the main stage, took the initiative to hold her hand.
Jiang Shishuang's heart trembled fiercely at this moment, without resistance or struggle, letting Ye Huan lead her off the stage.
At this moment, a group of young female ancient martial artists, with awkward and fawning expressions, swarmed towards the front of the stage, blocking Ye Huan's path, and all pulled down their collars, sending flirtatious glances at Ye Huan...
