The commotion here was simply too great. Before long, the clan leaders of all Three Great Families had arrived.

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa came over and saw his son blasted to the ground, while his clansmen had suffered severe injuries. He pointed viciously at Yun Shenwei. "You little bastard! How dare you cause trouble in my Wu Tan City? Do you really think this is your territory? Don't think that wearing the skin of the Yun Lan Sect means you can do whatever you please. You have no right to run wild here."

As he spoke, Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa unleashed his full aura. In the original story, there had not been much difference in realm between him and Xiao Zhan. Now that he had appeared, he truly counted as the strongest person present.

"This isn't your place to interfere!"

Clan Leader Xiao Zhan suddenly appeared and blocked the other man's attack. The two glared coldly at each other.

"Clan Leader Xiao Zhan, isn't it a little inappropriate for you to stop me? Even if you seem to have a decent relationship with this fellow, do you know that he is actually an impostor? And he injured members of my family in broad daylight. If he doesn't give us an explanation, do you think the Ao Ba Pa Family is easy to bully?"

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa's eyes had turned red. He had never suffered a loss in all these years, yet now he had been humiliated by such a young junior. How could he possibly accept that?

"Ao Ba Pa, that isn't quite right, is it? No matter how I look at it, this Young Master Yun seems like an upright gentleman. On the contrary, it was your family who deliberately provoked him first. Besides, this is not your family's territory. If anyone gets to make the call here, it should be me and the Xiao Family."

Clan Leader Jia Lie'ao had rushed over upon hearing the news and made his stance clear. At least for now, he was willing to trust the young man before him. As for the so-called Evil Taoist Priest, they could investigate that later.

"So the two of your families are joining forces against me? You have some nerve."

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa was furious, but he did not dare launch an attack recklessly. The two men before him were roughly equal to him in strength. If he fought one against two, he would gain no advantage whatsoever. Moreover, that young man was still watching him like a tiger eyeing its prey. Taking another risk truly was not appropriate.

"Clan Leader, he must be the Evil Taoist Priest! Otherwise, how could he possess such a special method of attack?"

Ao Ba Wen, the cousin of Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa's son, was covered in blood. He forced himself to prop up his body and continued, "I am an Outer Sect Steward of the Yun Lan Sect. If you protect this villain today, then wait for the Yun Lan Sect to come deal with you in the future!"

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa was both angry and helpless. The situation was indeed unfavorable for him to continue pressing the matter. Yet if he simply left like this, he would feel even more stifled.

"What a punishment! Hahaha... Ao Ba Wen, you have only been an Outer Sect Steward for a short while, and you already think yourself invincible and capable of representing the Yun Lan Sect? This old man has devoted more than half his life to the Yun Lan Sect. Shouldn't I be even more arrogant than you?"

Ge Ye, who had yet to appear, finally could not stand by any longer. His body flashed rapidly, and he ultimately appeared in the very center of the crowd.

"Y-You are... Ge Ye!"

Ao Ba Wen raised his head and looked at Ge Ye, who had suddenly appeared. His eyes widened in utter disbelief. He could not imagine that Ge Ye would appear at this moment, much less stand beside the youth transformed by the Evil Taoist Priest.

Could this young man really be the Chief Disciple of the Yun Lan Sect?

Impossible!

Didn't they say a few days ago that he had finished the competition and entered seclusion to cultivate?

Was that deliberately false information?

Was he actually here to handle official business?

Heavens!

It's over, it's over! The flood has washed into the Dragon King's Temple—our own people have fought our own people!

Ao Ba Wen already knew the truth. He regretted it beyond measure. Just as he was about to apologize, Ao Ba Pa beat him to it.

"You old bastard, what the hell are you? This has nothing to do with you. Are you this Evil Taoist Priest's accomplice? Hmph! You don't look like much."

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa had originally intended to leave, but after being provoked like this, he could no longer endure it. He unleashed all his aura, opened the Storage Ring on his hand, and took out a long Fang Tian Halberd.

This Fang Tian Halberd was a treasure he had collected for many years, one he had always been reluctant to use. He had intended to keep it hidden away for the day his family faced a great crisis, but his emotions had now been provoked to the limit. He no longer intended to hold back.

"Impudent! How dare you speak to this old man like that?"

Ge Ye, the Steward, was furious as well. He had been respected throughout his many years in the Yun Lan Sect. Yet after coming to this small city, he was being looked down upon by the clan leader of a minor family. How could he accept that?

"Not only will I talk to you like that, I'll kill you too!"

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa swung his Fang Tian Halberd, unleashing intense fluctuations around him. Fierce winds rose at once, sending goods outside many shops flying.

"This old man will have a bout with you!"

Ge Ye, the Steward, had never been one to take things lying down. He immediately drew his weapon and prepared to fight.

"Ge Ye, the Steward, let me handle this! Trash like him isn't worth your effort."

Yun Shenwei suddenly rushed out ahead of him, leaving Ge Ye no time to stop him.

"Young Master Yun, do not act rashly. Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa is a Da Dou Shi! You... ah!"

Clan Leader Xiao Zhan saw this and wanted to stop him, but he was too far away and could only give up. Still, he shouted a warning.

"Kid, you're courting death. If you had kept hiding far away, perhaps I really couldn't have done anything to you. But now that you've delivered yourself to me, do you think you still have any chance of living?"

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa had revealed his killing intent. At this moment, he no longer cared whether the other party was real or fake. He only wanted to vent his anger.

"Perhaps you should have those words returned to you exactly as they are. Do you think I would be foolish enough to come looking for trouble with you on my own? You should worry about yourself instead, Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa!"

Yun Shenwei sneered coldly. More than a dozen Dou Qi Bombs suddenly appeared in his hands. He had prepared them in haste precisely to launch a surprise attack against his opponent.

Boom! Boom!

More than a dozen Dou Qi Bombs exploded at once. The shockwave was far stronger than before, splitting great cracks across the ground. Some of the weaker people even had blood shaken from their ears.

Clan Leader Ao Ba Pa stood at the forefront of the shockwave. His body was blasted away, and his chest caved in. Fortunately, his realm was relatively high, and he forcefully endured it. At the very least, this attack had failed to kill him.

Yun Shenwei was completely unharmed. When he had exchanged for the Dou Qi Bombs, he had also prepared a Defense Barrier capable of ensuring his safety for a short time, so there was nothing to worry about.
