Chapter 822 - 821 Trouble Brewing
Following Hu Wannian’s words, the several people who followed him bowed simultaneously, saying in unison, "We are sorry, Young Master Zhao!"
Everyone in the hall, originally bustling with liveliness, was shocked still, especially the dean who had just run to the entrance to greet them—his mouth hung open, unable to recover.
There were not many people following Hu Wannian into the hall, but none of those who could enter here were weak. Any one of them could turn Liuan City upside down. Any one of them was too influential for the dean to even look up to!
One might say that those who came in with Hu Wannian almost encompassed all of the Prestigious Families and major powers of Liuan City.
And now, these magnates who controlled Liuan City were all standing before Zhao Ping’an, bending their waists to bow to this young man and personally apologizing—who could have imagined such a scene?
At this moment, everyone had only one thought in mind: Who exactly was this young man, and what was his identity that made all these important figures bow before him?
Xu Cheng stood agape; although he was a brash man, he could clearly feel the aura of supremacy emanating from Hu Wannian and his entourage. Just that aura alone was enough to terrify him into silence.
Zhao Ping’an, however, was quite calm. The Zhao Ping’an of the past would surely have been startled by such a display, but not anymore.
The slaughter that took place last night had already tempered his mindset. Moreover, as a disciple of Su Yang, that identity alone placed him above the heads of these people. Even if they came to bow, there was nothing incorrect about it!
