Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Then There’s No Need for Me to Be Polite

Shen Ronghua’s gaze fell upon Chen Fan, his eyes narrowed, and he spoke in a cold voice, "Who are you to meddle in the affairs of the Shen family!"

Chen Fan bowed slightly to Shen Ronghua and said, "Uncle Shen, I am Lingdie’s friend. I am here to persuade you to cancel Lingdie’s marriage arrangement. Marriage determines her future happiness, and that decision should be made by her."

Shen Ronghua snorted coldly, "Nonsense! I decide my daughter’s marriage! Moreover, the person Lingdie is to marry is none other than Master Lu Jiuxuan. This matter can only benefit her; she is just too young to understand!"

Chen Fan spoke indifferently, "But in Lingdie’s eyes, this so-called Lu Jiuxuan is just an old man, and she doesn’t wish to marry him. You shouldn’t force her."

Zhang Beiyuan stepped forward with a cold face and angrily said, "You dare to call my teacher an old man? You must be tired of living!"

Chen Fan glanced at Zhang Beiyuan and said, "Isn’t someone in their eighties or nineties an old man? I merely stated a fact, and you want to kill me for your master? It seems Master Lu is a bully as well, which is all the more reason Lingdie should not marry him."

Zhang Beiyuan was furious, "You’re seeking death!"

Seeing this, Shen Ronghua hurriedly said, "Brother Zhang, calm your anger. This kid doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth; he must be impulsive. I will handle this matter."

Then he turned to Chen Fan, scolding, "Do you realize you’re pushing yourself into the fire pit! I advise you not to meddle in things you shouldn’t. Leave immediately. Lingdie, come over here!"

Shen Lingdie clung tightly to Chen Fan, unmoving.

Shen Ronghua gritted his teeth and shouted, "Bring someone here to take my daughter! And throw out everyone else who doesn’t belong!"

Suddenly, a bunch of people surrounded Chen Fan.

Chen Fan’s aura erupted around him, terrifying pressures emerging and deterring the group from taking even half a step forward.

"With me here, no one shall force Lingdie!"

Shen Ronghua’s eyes narrowed, somewhat surprised that Chen Fan could unleash such a powerful aura.

"It seems you have some reliance, which is why you dare to come here and stand up for Lingdie. But do you think you can run amok in the Shen family like this!"

Zhang Beiyuan sneered, "Patriarch Shen, you are being too indecisive. This guy wants to prevent my teacher from marrying your daughter; just kill him, why bother exchanging words!"

As his voice fell, Zhang Beiyuan took out three Formation Flags and performed Hand Gestures. A powerful Mana emerged, forming a small Formation in mid-air.

Shen Ronghua’s expression changed. Although he didn’t want Chen Fan to interfere with Shen Lingdie’s marriage, he also understood the bitterness in Shen Lingdie’s heart. It was not unjustified for her to ask a friend for help. He had intended to just show Zhang Beiyuan a gesture and then send Chen Fan away, but to his dismay, Zhang Beiyuan had resorted to direct action.

Chen Fan looked at the Formation Flags hovering in mid-air, curled his lips, and protected Shen Lingdie behind him.

Tian Ying revealed a hint of urgency and shouted at Chen Fan, "Do you know how to speak at all? Now you’ve done it, they are going to kill you! Don’t you know this person is Lu Jiuxuan’s senior disciple, a master of the Seven-turn True Person Realm. Kneel down and beg for mercy; maybe you can save your life!"

Chen Fan said lightly, "Merely child’s play, nothing to fear."

Tian Ying became even more anxious, grabbing Shen Lingdie and quickly retreating, "Miss, let him court death on his own. We must absolutely not join him in his foolishness!"

Zhang Beiyuan, seeing Chen Fan’s nonchalant demeanor, laughed coldly, "I’ve seen many ignorant and arrogant fools like you. Without exception, they all died under my formations. Today, you will be no different!"

Having said that, he activated the Formation Flags, and a red light shot straight toward Chen Fan.

Dong Xiaoran tugged at Shen Ronghua, "Help him quickly. They are young and it’s normal to be dissatisfied with an arranged marriage, but this is no crime deserving death!"

Shen Ronghua wore a somber expression and said, "I understand, but if I stop them, that means I offend Lu Jiuxuan. What am I supposed to do?"

Just as the red light was about to hit Chen Fan, Chen Fan casually waved his hand, and the red light actually dissipated on the spot.

Immediately after, the three Formation Flags in midair began to tremble violently. In just a few seconds, they completely disintegrated, their fragments scattering all over the ground.

Everyone stood dumbstruck, watching the scene unfold.

Shen Ronghua muttered to himself, "Zhang has reached the peak of the Seven-turn True Person Realm. Even though the Array he cast was done casually, this kid broke it with a mere wave of his hand?"

Tian Ying stood in a daze, "Is this guy really that powerful?"

Zhang Beiyuan also furrowed his brows, looking incredulously at Chen Fan as he said coldly, "I didn’t expect you to have some skill. It seems I can’t subdue you without getting serious!"

Then he lifted his hand, and nine Formation Flags flew out, hovering in midair. They quickly formed a Great Formation that covered the sky and obscured the sun.

Seeing this, Shen Ronghua’s face turned to one of horror as he shouted, "The Nine Palace Sunlocking Formation! Zhang has actually brought out such a Killing Formation, he truly intends to kill!"

He then hurriedly said to Zhang Beiyuan, "Zhang, although this junior is disrespectful, he only wanted to stand up for Lingdie. A lesson would suffice, there is no need for such lethal moves."

Zhang Beiyuan snorted coldly, "This brat has insulted my master, showing no reverence in his heart; he deserves death. Today, I will take his life!"

He looked at Chen Fan and said coldly, "Boy, this Array I learned from my master is the Supreme Array called the Nine Palaces Extermination Formation. Although its power is not as great as my master’s Great Formation, it has still made a famous name for itself in the realm of magic. You should consider yourself lucky to die under this Formation!"

Chen Fan ignored the Array and just stared coldly at Zhang Beiyuan, asking, "So you’re saying, you really intend to kill me?"

Zhang Beiyuan snorted coldly, "For someone as ungrateful as you, would I keep you alive for the New Year?"

Chen Fan shook his head helplessly, "Since that’s the case, I see no need to be polite to you."

Zhang Beiyuan sneered, "Boy, I admit you’ve got some skills, but while you can break common Arrays, you’ll definitely not break my Nine Palace Sunlocking Array!"

"Prepare to die!"

As soon as his words fell, he activated the Array. The sky above the Shen family courtyard instantly darkened, and terrifying black mists spiraled overhead, converging towards Chen Fan’s location like the Grim Reaper harvesting lives.

All members of the Chen family were filled with fear, unable to stop shivering.

Looking at the scene, Tian Ying frowned and said, "This guy is really too reckless. How can he escape from such a terrifying Array? Miss, trusting him was a mistake!"

Qi Heng stared blankly at the black mist in the sky, also feeling a flicker of doubt, "Fan, can you really handle this Great Formation?"

In the entire venue, only Shen Ronghua, who was also in the Seven-turn True Person Realm, remained composed, but he too shook his head in helplessness and said, "This kid is doomed today."

Just when everyone believed that Chen Fan’s death was certain.

Chen Fan looked up at the nine slowly spinning Formation Flags in midair and then yelled, "Halt!"

Immediately after, the nine Formation Flags, as if obedient little dogs, came to a complete stop in midair, motionless.
