Transcending the Nine Heavens

“Look, am I handsome?!”

As soon as this sentence came out, Lan Buhui was momentarily stunned.

I was trying to reason with you... how did it turn into this question in the blink of an eye?

“Attention! Please be serious.” Tan Tan said with a solemn expression, “I’m trying to reason with you!”

Lan Buhui replied earnestly, “You are certainly handsome, my lord. However, your handsomeness is quite profound, and most people wouldn’t notice it.”

This statement was indeed very profound.

Some members of the Lan Family couldn’t help but want to laugh; although the statement didn’t directly say he was ugly, the implied meaning seemed to be absolutely the same?

Tan Tan snorted, “What do you mean by... my handsomeness is profound? Are you saying... I’m still very ugly?”

Lan Buhui smiled bitterly, “I thought I wouldn’t need to explain this... In the field of celestial arts in Nine Heavens, there is a face type called the ‘Heaven and Earth Opening Face’; it features one eyebrow piercing the heavens and the other plunging into the ground! And your eyebrows... one is already protruding up to your hairline, while the other hangs straight down... this is precisely that rare appearance. How can such a face be called ugly?”

Tan Tan’s spirit was shaken; this was the first time he had heard such a description. Excitedly, he said, “What you mean is?”

Lan Buhui nodded and said, “What I mean is, very few people can understand your handsomeness.”

Tan Tan grew furious and said, “But just now when I wanted to enter, the guard at the door said I looked utterly hideous! What kind of statement is that? I was even accompanied by a lady... Do you think I still have some face left?”

Lan Buhui was taken aback, “Is that all because of this?”

Tan Tan’s anger surged like a mountain: “Is that not enough?!”

Lan Buhui stared at him for a moment, then his face twisted...

Turning to look at the several corpses on the ground, then at the forty to fifty wounded people in the distance who were moaning in agony, and finally at the Lan Family’s gate, which was billowing with thick black smoke and flames, dark lines suddenly piled up on his forehead.

So... this tremendous accident happened... just because... the guard at the door insulted someone as ugly? Leading to such a tragic scene?

The surrounding Lan Yingfeng and others were also collectively petrified.

Looking at Tan Tan’s eyes, their respect grew like that for a celestial being. Goodness! You really are my good uncle! Just because someone insulted you as ugly, you almost slaughtered one of the nine great sovereign families, the Lan Family! Wow! You’re... too fierce!

“So that’s how it is...” Lan Buhui had a sense of being at a loss for words.

“Therefore, you must give me an explanation for this matter!” Tan Tan stated with righteous indignation, “My self-esteem has been crushed by your family... You have no idea how much harm this has caused me!”

Lan Buhui took a deep breath and said, somewhat gritting his teeth, “I’m not sure... What explanation do you want, my lord?” This was a very delicate time; it was truly unwise to provoke such a powerful enemy further.

After this matter, I’ll trick this guy out of the family, and then I’ll find a few old brothers to get this explanation back. We’re all ninth rank supreme, do you really think four or five of us can’t handle one of you?

Tan Tan was instantly stunned.

He had come here to make trouble on purpose, intending to provoke a conflict, and never thought of any conditions.

Finally, feeling embarrassed but angered, he said, “Regardless, it was wrong for you to insult me! I must have an explanation for this! Compensation, you must provide! But if you ask for my conditions, I have none! I just want you to offer conditions yourselves. If your conditions don’t satisfy me, I’ll burn this place to the ground today!”

He made a clean and straightforward threat!

Such blatant unreasonable behavior, so nakedly unyielding, almost made Lan Buhui faint from anger!
