Battle Huang Yin

A thunderous shout, carrying a trace of killing intent, spread across the bustling northern district of the Imperial Capital. The entire district seemed to fall silent for an instant.

Countless gazes then turned toward the locations of the Lin Clan and the Mystic Tiger Gang.

After learning the cause of the matter, some people who had been unaware of the situation also revealed looks of surprise.

Neither the Mystic Tiger Gang nor Lin Langtian of the Lin Clan was unfamiliar to most people.

Yet when they heard that Lin Langtian intended to wipe out the Mystic Tiger Gang, they were equally astonished.

Although Lin Langtian was a top genius of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Mystic Tiger Gang was no weak force either. Its leader, Huang Yin, possessed the strength of the Great Accomplishment of Qi Shaping Realm.

Could it be that a clash between a rising genius and an established Expert was about to unfold today?

With that thought, many people hurried toward the plaza where the battle was taking place. The crowds of the Imperial Capital loved excitement most, and such a spectacle only came once every few years.

At that moment, atop a roof not far from the northern district plaza, two tall figures stood facing the distance. One of them spoke.

"What gave the Mystic Tiger Gang such nerve that they dared provoke the Lin Clan and Brother Langtian?" This man had a face as fair as jade and held a dark-blue feather fan. He was Qin Shi of the Qin Clan.

Beside him, Wang Yan sneered. "The Mystic Tiger Gang is nothing more than a lapdog of the Huangpu Clan. I'd say Huangpu Ying was behind this in secret.

"That fellow wishes he could hang his eyeballs on Ling Qingzhu. Naturally, he bears a grudge against Lin Langtian, who drew Ling Qingzhu's special attention some time ago.

"But that bastard lives up to his name—he only knows how to do things in secret. Truly despicable and shameless."

Though they had known each other for a long time, Qin Shi was still somewhat unaccustomed to Wang Yan's crude words. He shook his head helplessly, then looked toward the plaza and asked in puzzlement.

"Even so, Brother Langtian should not have acted so rashly. Huang Yin is an established Expert at the Great Accomplishment of Qi Shaping Realm. What confidence does he have in defeating him?"

"I don't know that either. Even my Big Brother probably wouldn't have the confidence to deal with Huang Yin. Perhaps Lin Langtian was provoked somehow because of Ling Qingzhu," Wang Yan guessed, shaking his head.

While Wang Yan and Qin Shi were speculating, atop the terrace of an exquisite, lofty pavilion not far away, two stunning figures were also watching the events in the plaza with their beautiful eyes.

"Jing'er, it seems that the one from your family still did not heed your advice," said a woman whose face was veiled by thin gauze, her voice light and agile.

"Sister Qingzhu, although I am the Clan Leader's daughter, Huangpu Ying is the strongest genius of the Huangpu Clan's young generation, and his standing within the family is not low.

"My words hold no restraining power over him. Besides, the cause of this matter is also because..." As she spoke, Huangpu Jing could not help looking at the woman before her, a woman who could move even her own heart.

If Huangpu Ying had not been jealous of Lin Langtian, this situation likely would never have arisen.

Ling Qingzhu did not pursue the implication behind Huangpu Jing's words. Her clear eyes remained fixed on the plaza, and a thoughtful glint flashed through them.

Seeing this, Huangpu Jing paused before softly saying, "Lin Langtian actually intends to fight Huang Yin. He truly overestimates himself. Shall I go persuade Huang Yin to withdraw, and apologize to Lin Langtian while I'm at it...?"

"There is no need." Just as Huangpu Jing was about to move, Ling Qingzhu suddenly spoke. "It is already too late..."

Just as Ling Qingzhu's words fell, the Imperial Capital branch of the Lin Clan and the Mystic Tiger Gang finally collided in the plaza.

Soldiers faced soldiers, generals faced generals. As the Lin Clan's enforcement squad fought the ordinary members of the Mystic Tiger Gang, Lin Langtian took the initiative to seek out Huang Yin.

"Lin Langtian, out of respect for you as the Lin Clan's foremost genius, I have yielded to you at every turn. Must you truly drive this matter beyond all reconciliation?"

Huang Yin stared at the scene in shock. He had not expected Lin Langtian to actually dare make a move.

He was merely a junior at the Shaping Realm. What gave him the right!?

"I yielded? What a joke. No matter what backing you have, I have said it before: whoever offends my Lin Clan, this Elder will kill without mercy!" Lin Langtian said coldly.

Hearing this, Huang Yin's expression changed. He knew that the other party must have noticed someone was directing him from behind the scenes.

Then, hearing the anguished cries of his gang members dying around him, Huang Yin's face became so dark it seemed water might drip from it.

This Lin Langtian, brimming with killing intent at the slightest disagreement, was nothing like the rumors described.

However, Huang Yin clearly had no path of retreat now. Since Lin Langtian refused to show any mercy, he would simply capture him, then ask the Huangpu Family to come forward and apologize to the Lin Clan.

After all, he was acting for Huangpu Ying. The family could not possibly abandon him.

Boom!

With that thought, Huang Yin no longer hesitated. A dazzling Yuan Power hand suddenly formed in his palm, and a wave of Yuan Power Fluctuation that made even Qi Shaping Realm Experts drastically change expression swiftly spread outward.

In the end, it transformed into a brilliant Yuan Power hand that tore through the sky at an astonishing speed, fiercely grabbing toward Lin Langtian in the distance!

Huang Yin's attack was as swift as thunder, utterly impossible to evade. Those violent Yuan Power Fluctuations were enough to forcibly trap even an Expert at the Great Accomplishment of Shaping Realm!

Though wary of Lin Langtian's status, Huang Yin did not strike to kill. Even so, that terrifying strength was enough to make any Shaping Realm Expert turn pale at its mention!

The Yuan Power hand tore through the sky and, almost in an instant, arrived above Lin Langtian's head.

Yet Lin Langtian's expression did not change in the slightest in the face of Huang Yin's fierce attack, nor did he show any intention of retreating.

Lin Langtian's body suddenly shook. At once, the Heaven and Earth Primal Energy began to churn violently, and an incomparably powerful aura swept out like a storm, rolling mightily across the sky!

Then Lin Langtian stepped forward and, before countless watching eyes, threw a punch!

Bang!

Lin Langtian's fist struck the incoming Yuan Power hand solidly. In an instant, a terrifying gale swept wildly outward, and the vast plaza trembled.

"Break!"

A powerful force condensed into tangible ripples and spread upward along the Yuan Power hand.

Then, with a low shout from Lin Langtian, the Yuan Power hand that could restrain any Expert at the Great Accomplishment of Shaping Realm was blasted apart by his punch before countless stunned eyes!

Bang!

The giant hand of Yuan Power exploded, and the entire ground jolted violently. Brilliant points of light spread across the sky like a magnificent rain of light.

As the boundless rain of light poured down, countless gazes fixed on the center of the arena without even blinking. There, a figure emerged from within the light rain—it was Lin Langtian!

The moment he appeared, he drew countless stunned looks. Even some experts at the Great Accomplishment of Shaping Realm felt an immensely powerful pressure, as though they could barely move a single step beneath it!

"What a powerful aura. He's reached the Half-step Qi Shaping Realm, hasn't he? I never expected Lin Langtian's progress to be so swift. He truly deserves to be called the peerless genius of the Lin Clan!"

"Indeed. With his abilities, he'll likely reach the peak of the Creation Realm within three years, gaining the strength to challenge the Nirvana Realm!"

The overwhelmingly powerful aura Lin Langtian finally unleashed in full immediately caused an uproar throughout the arena.

The Lin Clan's number one genius truly lived up to his name!
