The black-robed elder, the Profound Heaven Hall Master, frowned slightly but said nothing.
The burly middle-aged man wreathed in lightning, Purple Lightning Venerable, spoke directly, his voice rumbling like thunder. "What do you mean by that? I admit that you do possess some strength, but you have only just broken through to the Heavenly Sovereign realm. Before you have even had time to digest your comprehension of your new realm, you dare act so arrogantly? Do you truly think there is no one in the Heavenly Net Continent?"
"We have no intention of looking down on the experts of the Heavenly Net Continent. We simply cannot stand certain people who like to act in secret, then refuse to let anyone speak of it afterward," Xiao Yan shot back without the slightest courtesy.
"Utter nonsense! It seems this Venerable must properly teach you, a junior, what it means that there are always greater people beyond others and greater heavens beyond the heavens, lest you rely on a little talent and dare look down on the people of the world!" Purple Lightning Venerable roared.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was not afraid but delighted. He clenched his fist. "Stop trying to pin such a grand accusation on me. I never meant to look down on anyone. Some people are simply more prone to flying into a rage out of shame."
He had already seen that the two who had arrived were both in the late Spirit Rank Heavenly Sovereign realm, and they likely already possessed the qualifications to attempt a breakthrough to the Immortal Grade Heavenly Sovereign realm.
If nothing unexpected happened, they might complete that breakthrough within a hundred years.
It just so happened that he had only recently broken through and had yet to fight an expert of this level.
