Chapter 117 The Star Hall's Retaliation Against Hong De's Offense
[Your Level 99 Revered Constellation astral pressure brought Hong De and his three protectors unto their knees. They even spat out blood and their spirit and confidence were shaken, as if you poured a bucket of cold water on them.]
[To prove your dominance, you didn't just target Hong De and his three protectors but also the Holy Maiden and her three protectors. Of course, the astral pressure that you allocated to them wasn't as powerful as the one that Hong De and his three protectors had received.]
[Nonetheless, even a mild astral pressure of a Level 99 Revered Constellation was enough to make the knees of the Holy Maiden and her three protectors tremble. As for Lian Yun, she was way worse than Hong De as she was almost close to passing out.]
[Although you had also hit the Holy Maiden and her three protectors with your astral pressure, the Holy Maiden and her three protectors were already familiar with your astral pressure so they knew it was you which gave them a sigh of relief.]
[After all, they knew how problematic it was if the Level 99 Revered Constellation who had arrived in the battle was not you but the patriarch of the Hong Clan. But since it was you, they were glad that you were on their side and so the conflict between them and Hong De will be ended.]
[Although you haven't shown yourself yet, the Holy Maiden and her three protectors could already guess your identity due to the familiar astral pressure. As for Lian Yun, Hong De, and his three protectors, they didn't find out about your identity yet but they could already guess that you were one of the three Level 99 Revered Constellations of the Star Hall.]
[Hong De looked aggrieved as he felt extremely humiliated and what's worst was that he couldn't even go against you since he was too weak. But in order to keep his pride, Hong De replied to your threat with another threat of his, "Senior! Don't interfere in this battle or else my Hong Clan's patriarch will deal with you and wage war against the Star Hall!"] noVe-LB(1n
[Hong De and the others didn't know whether you were the Star Hall Pope, the Grand Priest, or the Holy Son since your voice was neutral and indifferent and you slightly changed it to make yourself more mysterious. Because of that, an unidentified Level 99 Revered Constellation was enough to strike fear into the hearts of Lian Yun, Hong De, and his three protectors.]
[However, Hong De was arrogant and prideful enough to even talk back against you and that even caused Lian Yun and Hong De's three protectors to look at Hong De as if they wanted to kill him. After all, they knew that the one who caused this conflict was Hong De.]
[The conflict could have already been resolved if Hong De apologized and stopped provoking the Holy Maiden and the Star Hall yet Hong De dared to provoke the Level 99 Revered Constellation powerhouse of the Star Hall. That alone made Lian Yun and Hong De's three protectors even want to kill Hong De and offer Hong De's corpse to Star Hall just to save their lives.]
[They wanted to do that but they couldn't since Hong De was the heir of the Hong Clan. In other words, no matter how trashy Hong De's personality was, they couldn't deny that he was the most talented in the Hong Clan which allowed Hong De to become the heir of the Hong Clan. Due to that, they could only grit their teeth and hope that Hong De didn't go too far.]
[While the Hong Clan's side was already having an internal conflict, you scoffed at them and responded to Hong De's threat by further increasing your astral pressure on Hong De and his three protectors, causing them to be in the same state as Lian Yun who was currently on the verge of fainting.]
[Ignoring Hong De's threat, your loud voice was sent throughout the entire Star? City as a form of announcement by using your astral energy to amplify your voice while still concealing your current location from all of them. "Hong De has offended not only you, the Holy Maiden, but also disrespected the Star Hall. Hong De is the heir of the Hong Clan so he can represent the Hong Clan. I take this as a provocation of the Hong Clan to our Star Hall."]
["I declare that if the Hong Clan doesn't give us a reasonable explanation for their heir's transgression, the Star Hall will have no choice but to wage war against the Hong Clan! Holy Maiden, what punishment do you want Hong De to face with?" Since your words were broadcast throughout the entire Star City, all of the top forces that had entered the Star City for the Star Master Youth Competition were shocked by the sudden turn of events, especially the members of the Hong Clan!]
[They didn't expect that you were so decisive to the point that the offense of the Hong Clan's heir was enough to let you wage a possible war against the Hong Clan. They didn't even doubt your words since some could already guess that you were the Holy Son and the Holy Son was already the future Star Hall Pope.]
[After all, aside from the Holy Son, the other two Level 99 Revered Constellations weren't as impulsive as you to start a war due to some offense made. Even the Grand Priest and the Star Hall Pope would still talk it out with the patriarch of the Hong Clan rather than immediately announcing a possible war with the Hong Clan.]
[Of course, you were the future Star Hall Pope and you could become the Star Hall Pope whenever you want. And since you were defending the Holy Maiden, the Star Hall Pope and the Grand Priest will even gladly start a war with the Hong Clan to not only avenge the humiliation that the Holy Maiden received but also to show off the might of the Star Hall!]
