Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1628 1623: So What If I Hit You?

Balaton let out a cold snort, and the wine glass in his hand, perhaps intentionally, fell freely to the ground.A crisp sound, with red wine spilling all over.

The already quiet banquet hall shifted all its attention to Balaton.

"What are you looking at?" Balaton demanded arrogantly.

It is said it takes three generations to make a noble; clearly, Balaton was only second-generation. In his youth, he did not experience a systematic noble education.

He felt belittled and insulted; he needed to vent and prove himself through sound.

The Bloodline members all had playful expressions in their eyes; they all knew today's theme involved the Guest Elder of the Nopheler Family, presumably someone significant.

Except that Su Chen was an Eastern person, which surprised them a bit.

But for now, they just wanted to watch the drama unfold.

"Marquis Nopheler, is he the star of today's banquet?" Marquis Balaton asked Harlow Nopheler, gloating after seeing the crowd retract their gaze.

Harlow Nopheler wished for the ceremonies to finish quickly and simply, not even wanting to mention the kneeling and loyalty oath.

Now that Marquis Balaton was causing trouble, he surprisingly felt a bit relieved!

He said calmly, "That's right, Mr. Death God is the main character of this banquet, which the Nopheler Family is hosting to celebrate his addition."

"Him? Death God? Hahaha..." Marquis Balaton was momentarily stunned but then burst into laughter, feeling it was absurd.

This Marquis Nopheler must have lost his mind!

This banquet was undeniably grand; there were four hereditary Marquises and over a dozen Earls invited, with numerous London socialites as well.

For an occasion like this, the Nopheler Family supposedly hosted it for some unknown Eastern person who claimed to be 'Death God'?

Balaton felt the world might be going mad.

Regarding those middle-aged or young people dressed like nobles, he simply ignored them. Since they dared to sit before him, they needed a lesson in respect!

Harlow Nopheler's face did not show anger; instead, he smiled because he knew a good show was about to begin.

The one wearing a mask was Su Chen, but with the mask, Su Chen appeared even more mysterious.

He unabashedly released his imposing aura.

Although he didn't deliberately unleash the pressure of a Saint, the Bloodline members in front gained a bit more respect for him.

Being invited as Guest Elder by the Nopheler Family surely indicated he wasn't a weakling, was he?

Still, despite their respect, they didn't consider him that crucial because Su Chen was human, and humans were only ants in their eyes.

Of course, the Bright Church was another matter...

However, at the moment, they were happy to watch the excitement.

They wanted to see how the new Guest Elder of the Nopheler Family would handle this.

The Nopheler Family previously had Guest Elders, but not many.

However, these Guest Elders all had the cultivation of a Duke or higher.

They were powerful weapons to deter external enemies for Nopheler.

But during the holy war a thousand years ago, the top combat power of the Nopheler Family suffered great losses, and none of the family guests survived.

Now, Su Chen becoming the Guest Elder of the Nopheler Family could be considered the Great Elder.

In the Nopheler Family, besides the head Harlow Nopheler, only some powerful family Elders could rival him.

Even Colin needed to pay respect to Su Chen.

Of course, this was based on Su Chen's formidable force.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been the target for the Nopheler Family to win over.

Perhaps, in many people's eyes, this scene was puzzling.

Su Chen had just battled the Nopheler Family, and yet they turned to offer the position of Guest Great Elder along with an ancient weapon as a benefit to win him over?

Could it be that the Nopheler Family's people were out of their minds?

Of course not.

With a power comparable to a Third-class Duke, Su Chen was undeniably a figure not to be ignored in the Dark Council at this moment.

Compared to when the Nopheler Family merely had two Third-class Marquis-level Bloodline members to act as voting puppets.

If they replaced them with two Third-class Duke-level members in the Dark Council.

Even the Dark Council would have to consider Nopheler's opinion and influence.

This was precisely the Nopheler Family's intention, as after all, what harm could it do?

The Dark Council had a vast empire, and recovering an ancient weapon was a simple task.

However, the implementation still required private discussion between Harlow Nopheler, Duke Karloki, and Su Chen.

Today's ceremony was just the beginning and a clear signal of Su Chen joining the Nopheler Family.

...

Su Chen looked coldly at Marquis Balaton, then began to step down from the dais step by step.

Even though he hadn't unleashed the Saint's pressure, he projected an aura of authority and dominance as a superior.

Along his path, several Bloodline members involuntarily took a step back, realizing it only after bumping into others behind them.

Naturally, they felt embarrassed, having been repelled by the presence of a human, which was quite humiliating.

Although this person was the new Guest Great Elder of the Nopheler Family, how could the noble Bloodline retreat before a human?

Even Balaton was intimidated by Su Chen's presence, forgetting to evade momentarily as he stood staring blankly at Su Chen.

Not knowing what to think.

"Slap!" A crisp sound.

A clean, decisive strike left Balaton stunned, as well as everyone in the hall.

This slap...landed on Balaton's face?

Su Chen did this?

After delivering the slap, Su Chen turned around gracefully and decisively, showing no reluctance, as if nothing had happened.

Even Balaton hadn't realized what had occurred.

After an unknown amount of time, Balaton finally felt the burning pain on his face.

Without saying, his face was swollen.

"You... you hit me?" Balaton pointed at Su Chen, emotionally charged.

"So what if I hit you?" Su Chen retorted arrogantly, like a haughty king.

Today was the Nopheler Family's banquet; it was time for him to establish authority, as well as the Nopheler Family. Su Chen knew the importance.

Wasn't this just about showing off?

He's familiar with this!
