Chapter 2343 Big Brother, Get Him!

Since Lu Hansheng did not use any sound transmission techniques, Fan Chen heard everything clearly.

This "Big Brother" completely stunned Fan Chen; his pupils constricted, and his face showed terror.

Whom is he addressing as "Big Brother"? Are there still powerful figures in this world?

The person whom Lu Hansheng calls "Big Brother" must be exceptionally strong, and most likely even stronger.

Is this for real? Or are you just playing a trick on me?

Many questions arose in Fan Chen's mind. An indescribable chill invaded his entire body in a short moment, making his hands and feet cold and numb, and causing him to panic.

His heart pounded against his chest like a frightened bird, as if trying to burst through his skin and leap out of his body.

It felt as if a large hand was tightly gripping his neck, the pressure growing stronger and stronger, and the feeling of suffocation spread from his body to his soul.

impossible!

This guy is definitely bluffing, trying to fool me.

Fan Chen kept a safe distance from Lu Hansheng, unwilling to believe it was true.

"Guests are guests, how can we be impolite?"

Now that the battle was over and had served its deterrent purpose, Chen Qingyuan no longer needed to remain hidden in the shadows. After a moment's thought, he stepped out of the void and appeared before others.

Chen Qingyuan wore a moon-white long robe, its hem fluttering, exuding an ethereal charm. A light-colored brocade belt was tightly tied around his waist, and a beautiful jade pendant hung on his left side. The pendant appeared incomplete, missing half of its piece.

In a certain spot on the hem of the garment, there was an embroidered depiction of a lifelike five-petaled snow lily.

Tall and elegant, with an imposing presence.

When Chen Qingyuan appeared, Lu Hansheng immediately dropped his arrogance, lowered his eyes slightly, and greeted him with a cupped hand: "Brother."

Although they hadn't spent much time together, Lu Hansheng had already gotten used to calling him that and said it without any discomfort.

Chen Qingyuan smiled and nodded at Lu Hansheng: "Mm."

Such a sensible brother is a rare find in this world.

In the distance, the shattered starry sky is interwoven with countless turbulent and unstable imperial rules.

Upon seeing this scene, Fan Chen was utterly bewildered.

This person is... a quasi-emperor!

An Emperor-level Supreme Being with such terrifying strength actually addresses a Quasi-Emperor as 'Big Brother'.

Witnessing this event completely changed Fan Chen's understanding of the world.

This is absolutely outrageous and unbelievable.

Fan Chen was dumbfounded, his thoughts in complete disarray.

Are they blood brothers?

After much thought, Fan Chen concluded that only this reason was reasonable.

However, after examining them several times, Fan Chen couldn't discern any blood ties or karmic connections between the two.

"They must have used some kind of secret technique to conceal the bond of blood ties."

Fan Chen preferred to believe that he had misjudged the situation rather than delve deeper into other possibilities.

Lu Hansheng clearly saw the change in Fan Chen's expression. He thought back to when he first arrived, he was in the same situation, and he felt a surge of secret pleasure.

As expected of the eldest brother!

The level of pretentiousness they display is beyond my reach.

Based on Chen Qingyuan's displayed Quasi-Emperor level, most Supreme Beings who are unaware of the situation would not take him seriously, or even ignore him outright.

Lu Hansheng's admiration for Chen Qingyuan steadily increased.

"Fellow Daoist, the banquet is ready. Please come in and we can talk."

Chen Qingyuan looked at Fan Chen, whose breathing was slightly disordered, with polite manners.

Fan Chen and Chen Qingyuan exchanged a glance, sensing an unusual fluctuation in their auras. However, he simply assumed it was due to Chen Qingyuan's considerable abilities at the Quasi-Emperor level and didn't think much of it.

Without experiencing it firsthand or witnessing it with one's own eyes, one would never believe that a mere quasi-emperor possesses terrifying strength capable of suppressing numerous great emperors.

Fan Chen did not respond to Chen Qingyuan's invitation.

"My elder brother personally extended the invitation, which is a great honor for you. You should thank him quickly."

Seeing that Fan Chen remained silent, Lu Hansheng showed a hint of displeasure and spoke loudly.

He was clearly an unparalleled supreme ruler who could sweep across the world, but at this moment he acted like a peasant deliberately stirring up trouble, bullying others by taking advantage of others' power.

To reach such a level, Lu Hansheng is no fool; it's highly likely he did it intentionally to escalate the conflict and get Chen Qingyuan and Fan Chen into a fight.

The suffering I've endured should be shared with others.

Lu Hansheng's mind is truly wicked.

Chen Qingyuan could easily see through Lu Hansheng's intentions. He cast a stern look at him and said, "Old Lu, you have to be polite to your guests, you know?"

"understood."

Having been warned by his elder brother, Lu Hansheng naturally became more restrained.

Seeing this scene, Fan Chen's mind was in complete chaos, his thoughts tangled like countless balls of yarn, complex and difficult to unravel.

What did I see?

A quasi-emperor is reprimanding a monarch who has attained enlightenment.

Moreover, this Great Emperor who attained the Dao was not at the peak of his power; his strength was clearly superior to that of himself.

Fan Chen was shocked and extremely surprised by this situation.

"My brother is ignorant, please forgive him, fellow Daoist."

Chen Qingyuan spoke to Fan Chen again, his demeanor refined and his smile sincere.

Peace should be valued above all else; violence should be avoided.

It's hard to say about the past, but Chen Qingyuan is definitely this gentle person now.

Of course, if you anger Chen Qingyuan, you will also take action and use 'virtue' to subdue him.

"What are you doing? Are you playing me for a fool?"

Fan Chen was extremely vigilant and full of suspicion about what was happening before him.

In the eyes of the Supreme Being, a Quasi-Emperor at the Ninth Step of the Divine Bridge was nothing more than a slightly larger ant, which could be crushed with a wave of the hand without breaking a sweat.

Therefore, Fan Chen viewed Chen Qingyuan's conversation with Lu Hansheng as a pre-prepared performance to tease the visitors from other regions.

"Sigh! I really am very well-mannered."

Chen Qingyuan had envisioned discussing philosophy over wine with the top beings from various cosmic domains, a heartwarming scene he longed for.

However, reality is vastly different from fantasy, and things don't always go as planned.

"Brother, strike him down! Let this guy know what a true strongman is."

Taking this opportunity, Lu Hansheng snapped his white jade folding fan shut, pointed at Fan Chen, and a few wisps of sharp sword intent emanated from him as he began to urge him on.

Chen Qingyuan glared at Lu Hansheng and laughed, "You're just trying to make a big deal out of this."

Lu Hansheng retorted, "Brother, I didn't mean that. It's just that this person is ungrateful and should be taught a lesson."

Chen Qingyuan was not about to believe Lu Hansheng's nonsense: "Give me a break!"

"Is it really necessary to pretend?"

After thinking about it for a long time, Fan Chen really couldn't understand why they did this.

"Since you refuse to move, then I must offend you."

I intended to treat my guests in a gentle manner, but unfortunately, I couldn't.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Qingyuan took several steps toward Fan Chen, his aura rising continuously, instantly breaking through the limit of the Quasi-Emperor realm and reaching an extremely terrifying level.

This sheer power caused Fan Chen's expression to change drastically, leaving him feeling uneasy.

"This...such power..."

Faced with such ferocity, Fan Chen was terrified, his mind went blank, and he lost the ability to think for a moment.
