Chapter 366 - The Overbearing Ling Chen
Lester Family\'s Estate, The Blue Flame Lion Grand Hall.
The Blue Flame Lion Grand Hall was the most important location of the Lester Family. It was located in the deepest part of the Lester Family\'s estate.
It was the place where all the major decisions were discussed and made by the Lester Family. It was also the place where they received the most important and esteemed guests.
It was a majestic and awe-inspiring hall that was capable of accommodating a massive crowd. The entire main hall was like a priceless treasure trove due to its expensive and magnificent decoration.
As the most important place throughout the whole Lester Family, only the core members of the family were qualified to enter this place. Furthermore, it was also rarely used.
However, at this moment, the Blue Flame Lion Grand Hall was filled with people. All the elders and the commanders of the four legions of the Lester Family were currently present in that chamber. There were some elite members of the family present as well.
While the members of the four legions including the commanders stood at the left side of the grand hall, the elders and the elite members of the Lester Family stood at the right side.
A powerful and oppressive aura exuded from all of their bodies. The weakest of them were 1st Life Transition Deity Transformation Realm experts while the rest of them were 2nd Life Transition True God experts, Original God realm experts, and some Domain God realm experts.
While everyone was just standing there, there was an old man with ashen hair sitting high above a throne chair at the end of the grand hall, looking down upon everyone.
However, despite his old age, his blood energy was still strong as if he was a middle-aged man. He seemed to be half-asleep despite the big shots standing in front of him.
To the left and right of the old man were five rows of other chairs which were also occupied by ten old men, of varying height and aura. The only similarity was their obvious, shocking power - resembling ten powerful gods.
The grand hall was more than large enough but their presence made it seem crowded and oppressive. Furthermore, from the looked of it, one could tell that the power and authority of these ten old men were second to the old man in the throne chair.
This was quite a grand showing. It could be said that all of the most powerful experts of the Lester Family were currently gathered in the grand hall.
However, for some reason, the expressions of the people present were stern and the atmosphere in the grand hall was somewhat solemn and grim. Some of the people even had their weapons at the ready as if they were expecting a great enemy.
At the same time, despite the number of people within the grand hall, it was awfully quiet. However, the quiet atmosphere of the grand hall was suddenly broken by the cracking sound of the door as it was suddenly pushed open.
In the next second, the Fire Monarch walked into the grand hall followed by Ling Chen and the Primordial Shura Gods.
Ling Chen, who was dressed in the Emperor\'s robe, had an aloof expression on his face as if he was made of ice itself. There was not a shred of emotion in his eyes.
Ever since he had listened to the visual recording left by his mother and learning about his past self, he seemed to have become colder and more determined.
Meanwhile, the moment they stepped into the grand hall, all eyes instantly turned towards them. Even the sleepy old man sitting on the main chair suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the newcomers.
"What a warm welcome." Ling Chen coldly uttered as he was looking at his surrounding.
Anyone who had never witnessed such a grand team before would tremble upon seeing this large number of experts together. However, Ling Chen was still calm and relaxed as ever.
He didn\'t even look surprised about such a grand showing, and from the moment he entered the main hall, he did not stop for even an instant and simply walked towards the old man sitting in the throne chair.
While Ling Chen was making his way toward the old man, the people within the grand hall were checking him out along with the Dark Primordial Shura Gods and they were not without astonishment.
Aside from Ling Chen whose presence and aura were somehow concealed by the dark imperial robe given to him by his mother, the Dark Primordial Shura Gods didn\'t even bother to hide their powerful evil aura and their nefarious intent which were quite shiver-inducing.
As for Ling Chen, despite having his presence concealed, his pair of divine and demonic eyes still frightened them as they were able to see a sense of dignity and supremacy within that pair of eyes, and it was like the lord that controlled the universe had arrived, indifferent, cold, and horrifying.
Even if he were looking at them, none of them dared to match his gaze as they felt that even a glance from afar caused them to have a feeling of horror gush into his heart while his soul even trembled.
It was simply like they were facing a supreme ruler, and their minds and bodies were deeply suppressed by the indescribable dignified aura emitted by him.
That was except for the old man sitting on the main chair, he was still intensely staring at Ling Chen, wishing to see through him.
As Ling Chen drew closer, the old man suddenly got up from his chair and with a burst of amicable laughter, he greeted him: "Little friend, thank you for visiting our humble abode. This old man\'s name is Ramsay Lester, the supreme elder of the Lester Family."
Indeed, this eminent old man was the supreme elder or the ancestor of the Lester Family. Even though he looked quite old, he was the strongest expert throughout the whole Lester Family with an Early-Stage God Transformation realm cultivation base.
Looking at the old man standing high above himself, Ling Chen didn\'t answer his greeting but instead cold asked." You all get down. I don\'t like being looked down upon."
Ling Chen\'s voice was not loud. However, when his words tumbled out of his mouth, they sounded like thunder and spread in all directions, sounding as if the heavens itself was speaking.
Meanwhile, such words left everyone gasping for breath, including the old man. Everyone turned silent and held their breaths after hearing Ling Chen.
Some of them exchanged glances at the people next to them. Some even believed that they had misheard.
"Little friend, what do you mean."Suddenly asked the old man with an awkward smile on his face. Just like the others, he also believed that he had misheard Ling Chen\'s words. However, he still didn\'t move from his position which was a level higher than where Ling Chen was standing.
"I don\'t like repeating myself." Ling Chen coldly answered.
Not to mention the others, even the old man\'s expression changed after hearing this. They didn\'t expect this at all. At the same time, the atmosphere became quite tense since a battle might break out at any moment.
Meanwhile, the experts in the grand hall including the ten grand elders were quite eager, for evident by the cold glints in their eyes. Once the command came out, they wouldn\'t hesitate to cull Ling Chen.
Even though they heard that Ling Chen was God King realm expert from the Fire Monarch, not all of them believed it. Not only he looked extremely young, but he also didn\'t have a king aura around him or an imperial momentum.
Except for his pair of eyes that gave them this weird feeling, there wasn\'t anything astounded about him.
While everyone was still at loss for words after listening to Ling Chen\'s overbearing words, a cold and angry voice suddenly rang out."So presumptuous!"
At the same time, the owner of that voice who was one of the great elders next to the old man suddenly stood up while a shocking presence spread from his body, causing many experts below to quiver.
"Such a big tone! Where do you think...…."
Pluff!"
However, before the great elder could even finish his sentence, a bright glint flashed as his head was suddenly cut clean from his body with blood gushing out his neck, creating a spectacular scene that resembled a blooming blood lotus.
Meanwhile, Ling Chen still stood there as if he didn\'t move from start to finish while looking at the supreme elder of the Lester Family with a cold expression on his face. It was as if he was telling him that if he didn\'t move, he would be next.
