It was not that the three of them had sent people to investigate Xian Cheng, but Xian Cheng’s position in the Seven Stars Continent was very special. Although he was only in his thirties this year, he was one of the most capable trusted aides of Di Tianxing. He was a person whose mind was filled with Di Tianxing’s orders. A few days ago, there was an order from the Di Palace to bring Feng Yiru’s niece, who was wandering outside, to the Di Palace. Coupled with the fact that Xian Cheng had suddenly arrived in the Capital, they naturally knew why Xian Cheng was here.

Han Jintian naturally understood the hint in Xian Cheng’s words, but he crossed his arms and raised his chin. With a teasing and cold expression, he said, “Very good, then I’ll officially inform you that a woman like Feng Jianing, who has a bad character and has lost her moral bottom line, no matter whose niece she is, is not qualified to take half a step into the Seven Stars Continent!”

As soon as these words were out, Feng Jianing instantly said, “Director Han, why-why are you saying this to me? When did I offend you?! Director Han, I hope you know that Master Xian Cheng was the one who wanted to bring me to the Seven Stars Continent. The Xian family is one of the seven families in the Seven Stars Continent, and you’re only the second young master of the Han family in the Capital. What right do you have to order Master Xian Cheng to do things? How dare you question Master Xian Cheng’s decision?”

Feng Jianing glared at Han Jintian with hatred and anger. If not for the child in her stomach, she would have probably pounced on Han Jintian and bitten him. She was even more furious. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but glare at Feng Qing. She blamed everything on Feng Qing.

Hmph, Feng Qing, you’re really a slutty fox. Since you’ve already married a member of the Xie family, you should abide by the women’s ethics. However, you’re still fooling around outside. I wonder what kind of bewitching drug you gave to Han Jintian to make him protect you so willingly. Does your cuckold husband know that you’re so slutty outside? Feng Jianing glared at Feng Qing as she scolded fiercely in her heart.

Han Jintian chuckled and said with a teasing look in his cold eyes, “Haha, interesting. You actually asked me what right I have? Very good, very good!”

With that, he continued to step on Feng Yuanzhou. He half turned to look at Xian Cheng and ordered coldly, “Xian Cheng, kneel down!”

Upon hearing this, Xian Cheng couldn’t help but take a deep breath. However, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. Feng Jianing was really a troublemaker. She was the one who caused all the trouble today, including Feng Yuanzhou and Fu Anlan. Their greed was only for profit, and they were anxious for quick success. Their hearts were higher than the sky, and their lives were thinner than paper. It simply made him feel disgusted. Originally, this matter didn’t have to develop to this extent. Even if he changed his mind and didn’t take Feng Jianing in as his disciple, he would still bring Feng Jianing to the Seven Stars Continent. But now, Feng Jianing thought that she could look down on Han Jintian just because she had his care, she still didn’t know that she had already personally destroyed her future.

Who was Han Jintian? Not only was he the second young master of the Han family in the Capital, but he was also the second young master of the Di Palace in the Seven Stars Continent. He and Han Jintian had a relationship like that of a master and servant. Now that Han Jintian had given the order, he could only cooperate. It’s a pity that Feng Jianing’s face would suffer. She would probably be completely beaten up today, but she deserved it.

The next second, Xian Cheng took two steps forward and stopped about two meters away from Han Jintian. Then, he clenched his right fist and placed it on his left chest. He knelt on one knee respectfully and shouted, “Yes, Second Young Master!”

This was the etiquette of a ruler and minister. He followed Han Jintian’s words. According to the traditional rules of the Seven Stars Continent, Xian Cheng bowed to Han Jintian in a very standard manner. Seeing this scene, the entire banquet hall instantly fell silent. One could hear a pin drop. The silence was so silent that it made one’s hair stand on end.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Their hearts were filled with question marks. What was going on? They never expected that Han Jintian would really make Master Xian Cheng bow to him in front of everyone with just a sentence. Even in ancient times, this was an etiquette that only kings and ministers had. The dignified Second Young Master Xian of the Seven Stars Continent bowing to the second young master of the Han family in the Capital was too fantastical!

It had to be known that even if an ordinary person from the Seven Stars Continent came to the Capital, their status was not inferior to these wealthy families in the Capital. They even faintly suppressed them. After all, they could become permanent residents of the Seven Stars Continent. Just this point alone was already better than many so-called wealthy families. It was a qualification that those wealthy families could not exchange for with all their wealth.
