Bloodline Pressure!

Xuanyuan Che finished Yan Kuang and Yuxi with two punches, the entire process clean and decisive, so fast that no one could react.

Only when he spoke did the deathly silence around them break, followed by a chorus of sharp intakes of breath. The cultivators who had been lurking in the shadows, coveting the opportunities of the Saint Dao Hall or arriving here for various reasons, all turned pale. Their gazes toward that figure clad in coarse linen were filled with terror.

"Yan... Yan Kuang died just like that?!"

"That was one of Burning Heaven Valley's foremost body cultivators of this generation, a ruthless man ranked in the top fifty of the Earth Ranking!"

"This Xuanyuan Che... He is absolutely not in the Tai Xu Realm! He is definitely a Saint! And an extremely powerful Saint!"

"Run! This place is not somewhere we should linger!"

The Divine Souls spying from the shadows swiftly receded like the tide. No one dared set their sights on this place again. Xuanyuan Che's ferocious might was branded deep into the hearts of everyone present in an exceedingly domineering manner.

Thunder Roar Ravine swallowed a pill, and his injuries rapidly recovered. He strode over to Xuanyuan Che's side and grinned. "Junior Brother, fucking awesome! Haha, that felt great! Let's see if these Central Continent scum dare act arrogant again!"

Just then, ripples came from the other two great halls almost simultaneously.

The doors of the Medicine Soul Hall opened, and Mu Qingxue slowly emerged. The sword intent around her had become increasingly restrained, yet whenever her eyes opened and closed, her annihilation sword intent remained poised without being released. Her aura had astonishingly stabilized at the peak of the Wu Xiang Realm, only one step away from Tai Xu. Clearly, her gains had been immense. At first glance, she saw Xuanyuan Che. A smile appeared on her cool, beautiful face as she gave a slight nod.

Immediately afterward, a flash of radiance came from Dan Heart Hall, and Yun Mengyao's figure appeared. Her aura was ethereal, as though she had fused into the heavens and earth around her. In her hands, she held a delicate Seven-Colored Spirit-Nourishing Cauldron. Within it, dragons and tigers seemed to converge, while pills rose and fell amid strange phenomena. Her cultivation had also advanced to the Late Great Void Realm, and her understanding of formations and alchemy had clearly reached a new height. The moment she appeared, her gaze locked onto Xuanyuan Che. Only upon seeing that he was unharmed did the concern in her eyes soften.

The two women came to Xuanyuan Che's side almost at the same time.

"Junior Brother."

"Che'er."

They had naturally noticed that, though Thunder Roar Ravine had mostly recovered, his clothes were damaged and his aura had once fluctuated violently. They understood at once.

Yun Mengyao's willow brows furrowed slightly. A chill flashed through her eyes, though no one could see it. "Who injured Third Junior Brother?"

"That kidney-deficient young master from Heavenly Palace Academy, and someone called something Kuang. But it's fine, I already killed them."

Yun Mengyao froze, then sharply inhaled. Looking at Xuanyuan Che, she said in a tone filled with indulgence and helplessness, "You weren't hurt, were you?" It was as though her junior brother had not killed geniuses of the Earth Ranking, but had instead been bullied by a crowd.

Xuanyuan Che smiled. "Just two flies. I swatted them away in passing; it took no effort. Second Senior Sister, Sister Mu, how were your gains?"

Only after hearing him confirm that he was unharmed did Yun Mengyao finally relax. She displayed the Seven-Colored Spirit-Nourishing Cauldron in her hands. "I obtained part of the essence of Senior Medicine Saint's alchemy inheritance, along with this Seven-Colored Spirit-Nourishing Cauldron. It was the pill cauldron used by the Medicine Saint in his early years, a top-grade Saint artifact."

Mu Qingxue was even more concise. "Sword soul complete. Annihilation Sword Heart initially formed. Obtained a copy of the Medicine Soul Sword Canon." What she had acquired was not merely swordsmanship, but a special sword canon that combined sword dao, soul power, and medicinal principles. It was incomparably profound.

Thunder Roar Ravine chuckled. "I got a Saint Blood Body Tempering Pill. Before I could eat it, those two scum ambushed me. But it's fine now! The pill Junior Brother gave me worked amazingly!"

Xuanyuan Che nodded. "Everyone's gains are good. This matter is finished. I have also taken the greatest benefit of this estate. It is time for us to leave."

"The greatest benefit?" Yun Mengyao's beautiful eyes flickered. She sensed that Xuanyuan Che seemed to possess an incomparably vast power within him, one that had fused with the origin of all things.

Xuanyuan Che smiled faintly and did not explain the matter of the Chaos Green Lotus. He merely said, "We'll discuss it after we get out. I reckon quite a few people are already waiting outside to welcome us."

His gaze pierced through the space of the estate, and he saw that the entrance to Seven-Colored Medicine Valley outside was already a scene of gathering storms. The Medicine Saint's estate had appeared, and the four of them had entered first and would emerge last. Anyone would think they had taken the lion's share of the inheritance.

What was more, he had killed people from Burning Heaven Valley and Heavenly Palace Academy.

"Let's go." Xuanyuan Che swept his sleeve, and a gentle force of Chaos Power enveloped the other three. "We'll go straight out and save ourselves the trouble."

In the next moment, the four figures blurred, actually ignoring the Spatial Restraint within the estate and teleporting away directly!

Outside the Medicine Saint's estate, at the entrance to Seven-Colored Medicine Valley.

Just as Xuanyuan Che had expected, the area was now packed with people, several times more than before! The teams from the major top academies of the Central Continent had almost all gathered, along with several presences whose auras were obscure and unfathomable.

Everyone stared fixedly at the entrance where rosy light flowed, their eyes burning with greed and wariness.

"They're out! Someone's coming out!" someone suddenly shouted.

The rosy light at the entrance twisted, and four figures emerged unharmed, stepping out calmly and unhurriedly.

They were Xuanyuan Che and the other three!

In an instant, countless powerful Divine Souls and gazes descended upon the four like something tangible, attempting to probe their true strength.

Xuanyuan Che narrowed his eyes. Every investigator returned empty-handed, their minds violently shaken.

"Xuanyuan Che! Return the life of Young Master Yuxi of our academy!" the chief disciple of Heavenly Palace Academy roared. Several disciples with powerful auras stood behind him, all in the Tai Xu Realm.

"And our Burning Heaven Valley's Young Master Yan Kuang! Xuanyuan Che, Burning Heaven Valley will not rest until one side is dead!" Another Burning Heaven Valley genius, equally burly in build, stepped forward. The pressure of his Late Great Void Realm cultivation bore down on Xuanyuan Che's group without concealment.

At the same time, several other factions friendly with Burning Heaven Valley and Heavenly Palace Academy, or simply seeking to fish in troubled waters, vaguely formed an encirclement.

The atmosphere instantly became tense to the extreme!

Xuanyuan Che stepped forward, subtly shielding his senior sisters and senior brother behind him.

His calm gaze swept over the group of geniuses who had come to demand an explanation. A faintly mocking curve lifted at the corner of his lips as he slowly spoke, his voice clearly carrying through the entire area:

"I killed them."

"I took the things."

"Not convinced?"

He paused. The Chaos Pressure around him, restrained to the utmost limit, was like a slumbering ancient Divine Dragon slowly awakening by the slightest trace.

Only the slightest trace!

BOOM!!!

It was like hundreds of millions of volcanoes erupting at once! Like the celestial river of the nine heavens pouring down!

An indescribably terrifying Bloodline Pressure, carrying supreme Chaos Dao Rhyme, exploded outward with him at its center!

Thud! Thud! Thud!

In an instant, beginning with the Saint Realm elder of Burning Heaven Valley leading them, every cultivator who had tried to suppress Xuanyuan Che's group with their aura, as well as those harboring malicious intentions, underwent a drastic change in expression. Their legs went weak, and regardless of cultivation level, they all lost control and fell to their knees!

As though lowly subjects had encountered a Divine King who ruled the heavens!

Bloodline suppression! Indiscriminate crushing!

Even those cultivators who had not knelt were all pale-faced, their Divine Souls trembling as though they bore the blue heavens upon their backs. Even breathing became exceedingly difficult!

The entire area fell deathly silent!

A pin could be heard dropping!

Only Xuanyuan Che's calm voice rang out once more, yet it exploded in the depths of every person's soul like thunder:

"Who else... wants to try?"

No one dared answer.

All the factions that had been shouting before were now silent as cicadas in winter, cold sweat soaking through their clothes.

They finally understood that the youth before them was an existence they absolutely could not afford to provoke!

That bloodline was far too transcendent...

Standing behind Xuanyuan Che, Yun Mengyao watched his figure suppress the entire gathering through his strength alone. Her eyes held undisguised amazement and... indulgence.
