Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife
Chapter 514: Settling Accounts After the Autumn Harvest
Thinking about their previous arrogance, they all wish they could find a hole to hide in!
Compared to such extraordinary beings as the Martial Saint of the Human Realm...
What does the so-called identity of a Shenzhou Envoy even amount to?
Moreover, perhaps as Chen Xiao said, if it weren’t for him, the Zeng Family wouldn’t even have the chance to be here!
Zeng Yuning tightly pressed her lips together, and finally, a strange glow burst forth in her eyes.
Before, she traveled with her father between countries, witnessed countless grand occasions, and met many famous people worldwide. Perhaps it was her innate inferiority complex at play; she always felt foreigners were a notch above.
But now, after witnessing Chen Xiao’s strength, she found out she was utterly wrong!
Zeng Daonong’s face turned pale, and finally, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "What kind of monster have we offended this time!?"
A Martial Saint in his early twenties!
Such an achievement is rare throughout history!
If they were Chen Xiao, they absolutely wouldn’t easily let go of those who humiliated and belittled him earlier.
If Chen Xiao were to seek revenge, what would they do?
They are utterly powerless to resist! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Seemingly seeing through Zeng Daonong’s worries, Zeng Yuning confidently smiled and said, "Father, Chen Xiao may be arrogant, but I know his weakness."
"So to appease him and prevent him from targeting the Zeng Family in secret."
"He might even favor the Zeng Family because of it."
Zeng Daonong’s eyes flickered, coming to understand Zeng Yuning’s meaning, "Yuning, this matter..."
"Don’t worry."
Zeng Yuning looked at Chen Xiao with fervent eyes, saying, "I’m willing."
Chen Xiao is handsome and powerful.
He perfectly fits her fantasy of a man.
In the past, when she roamed the world in various countries, she didn’t lack romantic flings with handsome, exotic men. She’s long been indifferent to such things.
Now, she feels that if she could have something with Chen Xiao, it would be a huge gain for her.
Seeing her like this, Zeng Daonong sighed and said nothing more.
In the midst of the dead silence, Chen Xiao patted his clothes and, with a light smile, looked at everyone present, "Just a minor interlude, no matter, everyone continue."
Saying this, he leisurely returned to his seat.
However, the breath of everyone in the room slightly froze, palms filled with sweat.
Tian Han exclaimed in admiration!
He had to be his own brother-in-law!
He felt that even as the King himself, he didn’t exude such prestige as Chen Xiao!
Slaying two Great Generals who were Great Grandmasters, such strength would make anyone dread!
Tian Han coughed slightly, "By the way, this is the newly appointed Duke of our Yin Country, Chen Xiao. Henceforth, seeing Mr. Chen is like seeing me!"
Saying this, he coldly scanned the room, "Now, does anyone else have a problem with me ascending the throne?!"
The whole room was as quiet as a cicada in winter.
His gaze swept over the remaining five Upper Generals, and then over those Top Nobles.
All of them nervously avoided his eyes.
With such a terrifying deterrent in Chen Xiao, who would dare utter a word of dissent?
Otherwise, they feared they wouldn’t leave this place alive!
Finally, Tian Han’s gaze settled on the Sixth Prince.
Just moments ago, the Sixth Prince, who was arrogantly confident, instantly turned pale and collapsed to the ground.
"Second Brother, Second Brother, I’m your own brother..." the Sixth Prince chuckled dryly, "I cooperated with them earlier just to see who is loyal to you and who harbors ill intentions. Look, haven’t they all shown themselves now?"
"Everything I did was so you could ascend the throne with peace of mind, eliminating those with ulterior motives in advance!"
All present couldn’t help showing disdain; such words might deceive others, but he shouldn’t really deceive himself.
Tian Han gestured with his hand, "Take him down, imprison him in the dungeon, and await judgment!"
"Yes—"
A group of guards quickly stepped forward to take the collapsed Sixth Prince away...
Then, Tian Han coldly said, "Now, does anyone else have opinions against my rule?!"
No one in the room dared to make a sound.
After all, Chen Xiao’s gaze sweeping over made their scalps tingle.
"Good, since that’s the case, then, let the coronation ceremony begin today."
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
Instantly, everyone present knelt to the ground, shouting in unison:
"Welcome the new king to the throne——!"
Tian Han gestured with his hand, "Stand up, all."
"The Upper Generals, step forward."
The five surviving Upper Generals, pale-faced, finally mustered the courage to step forward, kneeling on the ground for instructions, fearing Tian Han’s intent to settle scores later.
Although they weren’t the leaders earlier, they had tacitly stood by Kun Sha and the others.
Now, seeing the situation, they feared it was the end for them.
