Sacha Stuart, a woman in her early twenties, possessed delicate features and a graceful figure, with a calm demeanor. Sensing Kit Long’s gaze upon her, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she instinctively leaned back against her mother.
“Chad, why did you call us back? Is there something going on?” Simon Stuart, with a wrinkled brow, looked at Chad Stuart and spoke up as they entered the hall. As soon as he entered, his eyes fell upon Kit Long, who was seated in the place of honor. His heart skipped a beat.
“Simon, you’ve come just in time. Quickly pay your respects to Elder Long!” Chad Stuart spoke up.
“Elder Long, greetings!” Simon Stuart furrowed his brows again and turned to Kit Long, giving a slight bow.
“Haha, good, everyone is here!” Kit Long laughed heartily.
“Sacha, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and serve tea to Elder Long!” Chad Stuart then turned to Sacha Stuart and spoke.
“Chad, with so many people here, shouldn’t someone else be responsible for serving tea?” Sacha Stuart’s mother, Bella Stuart, furrowed her brow.
“Bella, watch your words. Elder Long…” Chad Stuart’s face turned cold.
“Chad, if there is nothing important that made you call us back, then we will take our leave.” Simon Stuart interrupted.
“Simon, both Bella and Sacha do not understand the situation. Are you going to join them in causing a scene?” Chad Stuart’s voice grew stern.
“Since you’ve brought it to this point, then let’s be clear!” Bella Stuart took a deep breath and spoke coldly. “I don’t care what you have in mind, but I can assure you that Sacha will never become someone’s concubine. You have a daughter of your own, if you want to curry favor, you can offer your daughter as a concubine!”
“Bella Stuart, mind your words. Watch your language!” Chad Stuart angrily responded, a cold aura emanating from him.
“This is how I speak!” Bella Stuart replied loudly.
“Simon, aren’t you going to do something about this?” Chad Stuart furrowed his brow and angrily looked at his younger brother.
“Chad, if you called us back specifically for the matter concerning Sacha, then I’m sorry, we won’t accompany you!” Simon Stuart said, then looked at his wife and daughter, “Let’s go!”
“Insolence!” Just as the three were about to reach the door, Cecil Stuart, who had been silent the entire time, stood up.
“Simon, what attitude is this? Elder Long has come all this way to the Stuart family, and this is how you treat a guest?”
“Uncle Cecil, this is my attitude!” Simon Stuart’s tone was firm. “If you want to curry favor, that’s your business, but if sacrificing Sacha is a prerequisite, then I’m sorry, I disagree!”
After speaking, he held Sacha Stuart’s hand and headed towards the door.
“You think you can just leave after disrespecting us? Do you think I’ll allow it?” Just as the three were about to reach the door, a figure flashed from behind Kit Long, blocking their path in an instant.
“What do you think you’re doing?” Bella Stuart furrowed her brow.
“Get back!” The man responded coldly. “Without Elder Long’s consent, you won’t leave this place!”
“Ridiculous! This is Stuart Manor, and I’ll go wherever I want!” Bella Stuart responded again before stepping aside.
“Seeking death!” The man’s eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand, striking a palm towards Bella Stuart.
“Wife, be careful!” Simon Stuart shouted, releasing Sacha Stuart’s hand and blocking the attack with his own palm.
Bang!
Their attacks collided, and Simon Stuart was forced back several steps before finally stopping. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his breath in disarray. Although his martial arts skills were decent in the Stuart family, having recently reached the War God-Emperor perfection realm, he was no match for a true Sovereign realm expert like the man before him.
“Simon!”
“Dad!”
Bella Stuart and Sacha Stuart exclaimed in surprise and ran over.
“I’m fine!” Simon Stuart spat out another mouthful of blood and waved his hand.
“That was a warning. If you dare to be disrespectful again, you’ll die!” The man on the other side spoke coldly.
“You…” Bella Stuart was extremely angry.
“That’s enough!” Chad Stuart shouted and then looked at Simon Stuart coldly.
“Simon, Elder Long has taken a liking to Sacha. It’s her good fortune from her past life. Our family should be grateful instead of being so ungrateful! If you continue to cause trouble, don’t blame me for disregarding our blood ties!”
“Humph, when have you ever cared about our blood ties?” Bella Stuart replied coldly. “Were there not enough people from the Stuart family who died at your hands over a decade ago? I’m telling you clearly, we can’t agree to this. You would batter go ahead and kill the three of us. After all, it’s not the first time you’ve done something like this!”
“You insolent fool!” Chad Stuart roared. “Get them, control Simon and Bella!”
“Yes!” Two guest elders of the Stuart family responded and walked towards Simon Stuart.
“Hold on!” Kit Long lifted his teacup and took a sip before calmly speaking. Then, with a contemptuous expression, he looked at Simon Stuart and his wife. “From the way you speak, do you look down on me?”
“No matter what dealings you have with Chad Stuart, it has nothing to do with us. If you want to take concubines, please find someone else. We cannot agree!” Bella Stuart stared angrily.
“Haha, you’re quite something!” Kit Long sneered. After speaking, his tone turned serious. “That’s what you want. Get them, disable their cultivation!”
“Don’t hurt my parents!” At this moment, Sacha Stuart shouted loudly. After a brief pause, she took a deep breath and a determined look flashed in her eyes. “I promise you, as long as you spare my parents, I promise to be your concubine!”
For her, ever since rumors of this matter spread recently, she knew her fate was already sealed. She was well aware that with Kit Long’s identity and status, if he set his sight on her, she had no choice. She didn’t even have the right to commit suicide, unless she disregarded the lives of her parents.
“Sacha, don’t agree to him!” Simon Stuart and his wife shouted simultaneously.
“Take action!” Kit Long glanced at Sacha Stuart and continued.
“Yes!” The man at the door responded in a deep voice and raised his hand, striking a palm towards Simon Stuart.
“No!” Sacha Stuart exclaimed again. But with her cultivation, she couldn’t do anything and could only watch as the man’s attack smashed into her father.
Whoosh!
Just at this moment, a palm with an overwhelming aura swept in from the door, lifting the man into the air. Flying tens of meters before crashing heavily against a pillar, the man opened his mouth but couldn’t make a sound, kicking his legs and losing his breath.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the hall gasped in disbelief, their faces filled with shock. A genuine Sovereign realm expert was actually killed with a single palm? This was too unbelievable!
Then, everyone turned to look at the entrance of the hall.
Soon, they saw Billy and his group strolling in.
