Good grief!
Grand Unity Golden Immortals were nothing special after all!
How could he dare say that?
Although Grand Unity Golden Immortals were everywhere, that didn't mean they were cheap. To most people, they were still beings beyond their reach.
The same was true on Golden Ao Island.
But now, they seemed remarkably cheap!
Of course, that was only in Lin Chuan's eyes.
Everyone was instantly dumbfounded. Just moments ago, they had all been full of mockery, but now every last one of them was stunned. Even Zhao Gongming, who had always held Grand Unity Golden Immortals in the highest regard—
And deeply admired Lin Chuan—
Had never imagined he would say something so shocking right out of the gate.
Everyone was utterly astounded!
Even Sect Master Tongtian was stunned by those words. Though he had already reached the level of a Heavenly Dao Sage, hearing such a thing from someone else made it sound incredibly arrogant.
Even he...
Could feel that overwhelming arrogance rushing toward him.
Let alone everyone else.
"That brat is far too arrogant! Does he have any idea how vast the heavens and earth are?"
"How could he dare say something like that!"
"It's over. Now we can only watch and see how badly he gets beaten!"
"Such contempt for Grand Unity Golden Immortals! Plenty of people here had no grudge against him before today, but after hearing this, they certainly won't have any goodwill toward him."
Sect Master Tongtian practically wanted to slap his forehead.
He was utterly speechless.
He hadn't expected things to turn out like this in the blink of an eye. Was Lin Chuan trying to pick a fight with every Grand Unity Golden Immortal?
If his own strength were peerless, that would be another matter.
But...
Lin Chuan wasn't particularly powerful. His aura was so well concealed that some people didn't believe he had truly reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.
His strength might be able to match a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
But realm and strength were two entirely different things.
So...
Everyone was dumbfounded!
"Heavens!!"
"What did I just hear? He actually said Grand Unity Golden Immortals are nothing special. How much contempt does he have for them?!"
"You have to understand, Grand Unity Golden Immortals are already powerful figures in this world. They're only a step below Quasi-Saints, among the very strongest."
"And yet he says they're nothing special..."
"As expected of a Personal Disciple. His perspective really is something else!"
"Remarkable, simply remarkable!"
All sorts of voices rang out.
Whether they were shocked or sneering, there was no shortage of either. After all, everyone reacted differently.
Those who already felt hostility toward Lin Chuan were especially unrestrained in their mockery.
It was easy to imagine—
Just how many people had been stirred up by those words.
Even Zhao Gongming was speechless. Several times, he wanted to step forward and stop Lin Chuan, or even get him to take back what he'd said.
But then he hesitated.
In the end, he said nothing.
Instead, he watched the people around them even more warily. In that instant, he had sensed the auras of many more powerful figures, every one of them brimming with hostility.
This was no small matter.
They were practically overflowing with animosity toward them!
"We're in trouble. He's stirred up everyone's anger all at once. I can feel countless hostile gazes around us. There weren't nearly this many before."
"Most people had been staying neutral, but now it seems like almost all of them have become at least a little hostile."
"If they all come at us at once..."
Zhao Gongming felt like his head was about to split. He truly thought Senior Brother Lin should have considered his words more carefully. If he had taken a moment to think before speaking—
Then perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way. The uproar wouldn't have been so enormous.
It would only have provoked those who were already hostile toward them.
But now, look at this!
It was practically an all-out dimensionality crush!
He'd fired a map-wide attack, blasting everyone in sight, and they were all within range. Zhao Gongming's scalp began to prickle.
His whole head was going numb!
What he didn't realize was that Lin Chuan was bursting with excitement inside, even though he didn't show it.
Good grief! I've drawn so many hostile glares all at once. I've really maxed out the aggro, no matter what side anyone's on.
Let's make a big scene first. Besides, if things really get out of hand, I might be able to leave right away.
I can't drag this out any longer. I feel like things are slipping farther and farther off course. If this keeps up, I'll definitely be unable to get away.
And Tongtian This Old Scoundrel has been watching me the whole time. If I don't take some extreme measures, I might really end up with nothing to show for it.
Might as well take this chance and make a run for it!
Mm~
Let's see how you deal with this, you old scoundrel. Even if you don't want to kick me out, you'll have no choice! Hahahahaha!!
No one could have guessed that Lin Chuan was actually delighted inside. He felt that everything was still under his control.
And the bigger the scene...
The more it worked in his favor. Especially since he'd been hoping to get expelled all along—this was perfect.
Meanwhile...
Sect Master Tongtian was utterly speechless.
He had already been at a loss over Lin Chuan's antics, but after hearing what he was thinking now, his speechlessness was beyond words.
Good grief!
That kid really was a troublemaker!
He'd actually come up with a method like this, and was still trying to stir things up. Was the trouble he'd caused not enough already? If these words didn't spread any further and only attracted a bunch of hostile looks—
Then for now, there wouldn't be any major problems!
But once they really got out, their impact would be far-reaching.
They might even affect more than just the Interception Sect.
That would be utterly outrageous.
Sect Master Tongtian truly hadn't expected this kid to go to such lengths to get expelled. He'd come up with something like a nuclear bomb!
Honestly...
It was beyond anything he could have imagined.
But at that moment, he suddenly fell silent.
He simply couldn't imagine how much turmoil would erupt as time went on.
Especially among the Grand Unity Golden Immortals.
They were bound to be deeply dissatisfied with Lin Chuan.
Yet Lin Chuan had no idea that his casual remark would ultimately cause such an enormous uproar.
If anyone else had said it, it might not have caused much of a stir. But Lin Chuan was different, because he was Sect Master Tongtian's disciple.
And a Personal Disciple, no less!
His status spoke for itself. The meaning of his words was entirely different!
