Everyone's Shock (Please Recommend, Please Bookmark) (Revised)

"Th-This... how is that possible?!"

"The Young Sect Master of the Cloudmist Sect was utterly defeated and stepped beneath his feet!"

The Xiao Clan members were all dumbfounded, frozen like wooden chickens.

"Impossible, impossible... How could Junior Sister lose?" The young man from the Cloudmist Sect stared blankly, unable to accept this cruel reality.

If he had not known that Nalan Yanran held not even a trace of goodwill toward the Xiao Clan, he would have suspected that she was merely putting on an act with Xiao Meng.

Ge Ye looked as though he had been struck by lightning. His whole body trembled, his expression changed drastically, and his heart was filled with horror. Nalan Yanran had lost so cleanly and decisively.

For a moment, the surroundings fell completely silent. Everyone's mouths hung wide open, and none of them dared believe what they were seeing.

Nalan Yanran's lips bled, her face was white as paper, and she nearly fainted from fury. The trash in her eyes had not only defeated her, but had even stepped on her face, looking down on her—the proud daughter of heaven—from above.

She felt utterly humiliated.

"Third Brother is actually... this terrifying?" Xiao Yan's body trembled, and he could not recover his senses for a while. Nalan Yanran, a three-star Dou Fighter, had been so fragile in his third brother's hands, crushed outright beneath his feet.

Xiao Xun'er's little mouth formed an O, and her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. That bastard Xiao Meng was actually this powerful?

"Meng'er, how did he..." Xiao Zhan's lips trembled. He was so excited that he could barely speak. Xiao Meng's strength was far too unexpected, making everything feel unreal.

The Xiao Clan disciples in the distance wore particularly vivid expressions, their hearts twitching violently.

"That trash... H-He... how could he be this strong..."

"Young lady of heaven, that so-called true dragon—how does it feel now? Does your face hurt?" Xiao Meng asked with a condescending smile.

"You..." Nalan Yanran nearly exploded from anger. Yet when she recalled the words she had said earlier, all she felt was a burning pain on her face.

"Xiao Meng, Yanran has already lost. Release her at once!" Ge Ye's face turned livid as he shouted sternly.

"Old bastard, if you fucking dare use that tone with me again, I'll stomp her to death with one foot. Believe it?" Xiao Meng suddenly raised his head, killing intent flashing in his eyes.

"You..."

That one "old bastard" nearly enraged Ge Ye to death. But seeing that Xiao Meng was not joking, he could only suppress the killing intent and fury in his heart. "What exactly do you want?"

"What do I want? Old turtle, did you forget the bet between this little bitch and me?" Xiao Meng snapped.

Then Xiao Meng looked at Nalan Yanran and grinned viciously. "Little whore, which hand do you want to lose? I'll give you a choice."

"Xiao Meng, humiliating me like this... you will die a horrible death!" Nalan Yanran cursed.

Bang!

Xiao Meng raised his foot and stomped down. Nalan Yanran immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, a shocking sight.

"How ruthless..." This thought surfaced in everyone's minds. The way they looked at Xiao Meng changed, especially the Xiao Clan disciples who had often humiliated him. Their souls trembled with fear, and they felt an unprecedented sense of panic.

"That bastard is actually so vicious?" Although Xiao Xun'er was delighted to see Nalan Yanran thoroughly defeated, she could not help but shiver at Xiao Meng's ruthless method of crushing a flower.

"Xiao Meng, stop!" Ge Ye roared in fury. He was practically going mad. If Nalan Yanran were stomped to death here today, he would never escape responsibility.

"Fuck your ancestors for eighteen generations, you old dog! Are you blind? Can't you see I'm using my foot? What the fuck do you mean, stop my hand?" Xiao Meng's face darkened. What kind of nonsense was this old dog spouting?

Everyone: "..."

"What exactly do you want?" Ge Ye asked, his eyes bloodshot as he desperately suppressed the fury in his heart.

Xiao Meng shrugged and spread his hands. "I only want one of her arms. What, do you people from the Cloudmist Sect all like to break your promises?"

"Xiao Meng, can you change the condition? As long as you do not harm Yanran, I will agree to any condition you raise. I can apologize to your Xiao Clan for what happened today."

To preserve one of Nalan Yanran's arms, Ge Ye was truly going all out. If he could not manage it, Yun Yun would definitely kill him with one palm upon his return to the Cloudmist Sect.

"Fine. Then cut off both of his arms first." Xiao Meng pointed at the young man and spoke with a smile.

Yet that smile, in the eyes of others, was like a demonic flower blooming in hell, making their scalps tingle and their bodies shudder.

"You trash, you have offended the dignity of the Cloudmist Sect, and you still—" The young man's expression changed drastically as he pointed at Xiao Meng and roared.

Pfft!

Before he could finish cursing, Xiao Meng lifted his foot once more and stomped Nalan Yanran until she spat blood again.

Slap!

"Shut up!" Terrified, Ge Ye sent the young man flying with a slap.

"Don't hit him. Let him keep cursing. I want to see how he plans to threaten me," Xiao Meng said with a faint smile.

"Young Master Xiao, I beg you, all right? Please let Yanran go." Ge Ye felt as though his heart were breaking. His head throbbed, and he felt as if it were about to explode.

"I said it already. Cut off both of his arms first." Xiao Meng remained unmoved.

"Th-This..." Ge Ye looked at the young man, his body trembling. It was difficult for him to make this decision.

"Clan Leader, I think you should step in and stop this. Xiao Meng has gone too far. He will offend the Cloudmist Sect—" The First Elder's face twitched as he turned to Xiao Zhan.

But before he could finish, Xiao Meng abruptly turned his head and fixed him with an icy gaze. "You old bastard, shut your mouth, or I'll send you to see the King of Hell right now!"

The First Elder was first shocked that Xiao Meng could hear him from so far away, then he was greatly angered by Xiao Meng's words. "Xiao Meng, do you truly have no respect for your elders?"

"Fourth Brother, Xun'er, move aside and close your eyes," Xiao Meng said to Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er in a tone that brooked no refusal.

Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er exchanged a glance. Though puzzled, they did as they were told.

"Old bastard, the Xiao Clan disciples know nothing but scheming against one another and bullying their own people. And that is all because of you old turtles. Today, I will clean these black sheep out of the Xiao Clan. Now, for the sake of your seniority, I will give you the chance to attack first. Don't say I'm bullying you because you're old," Xiao Meng declared, his words as shocking as thunder.

The moment those words fell, heaven and earth became deathly silent. One could hear a pin drop.

"W-What? He wants to challenge the elders? H-He has gone mad?"

Not only the Xiao Clan members, even Ge Ye and the others were stunned.

"Xiao Meng, you are outrageous! You—" The First Elder's face turned livid with rage.

"I gave you a chance."

Xiao Meng muttered a sentence. Before the First Elder could finish cursing, he raised his right hand and pushed out with his palm. A fireball burst from his palm, shooting out at supersonic speed and tearing through the air with terrifying flames.

At that moment, everyone's expressions changed drastically, and their scalps went numb. The people around the First Elder fled in panic, running for their lives.

"No..." Terror filled the First Elder's eyes as he screamed hoarsely.

"Meng'er, show mercy!" Xiao Zhan shouted hurriedly and moved to intercept the fireball. The First Elder might have been at fault, but his crimes did not warrant death.

"Come back!"

Hearing Xiao Zhan's voice, Xiao Meng formed a claw with one hand and forcibly pulled the fireball back into his palm.

Hiss!

Xiao Meng's arm trembled. A piercing pain struck him, making him suck in a cold breath.

"Fuck, this hurts like hell. The bones in this arm are all shattered." Xiao Meng could not even lift his right hand. The pain radiating from it made him want to smash his head against a wall and pass out. It hurt far too much.

Yet at that moment, aside from Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er, everyone else looked as if they had seen a ghost, petrified in place. Xiao Meng's move had nearly scared their souls out of their bodies.

When Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er opened their eyes and saw everyone's reactions, their hearts trembled. Though they had not seen what happened just now, they had heard Xiao Zhan's shout of "show mercy" clearly.

"My goodness, does Third Brother really have the strength to kill a Da Dou Master?" Xiao Yan's heart twitched violently in shock.

"Old bastards, for my father's sake, I'll spare your lives today. But if I hear that any of you dare to stir up trouble in secret again and obstruct the Xiao Clan's development, I'll settle old and new scores together. I guarantee that not even your bones will remain," Xiao Meng snorted coldly.

The elders broke out in cold sweat, trembling with fear. They had nearly been scared to death just now, so how could they dare argue back? Faced with someone so powerful and ruthless, they had no choice but to be afraid.

Bang!

Xiao Meng then kicked Nalan Yanran flying and said coldly, "Leave behind the storage ring on your body, then get out of the Xiao Clan with your people."

Hearing this, Ge Ye was overjoyed. He hurriedly removed the storage ring from his hand and respectfully handed it to Xiao Meng. Earlier, he had still intended to take revenge on the Xiao Clan after rescuing Nalan Yanran, but now his heart held nothing but fear and trembling.

Xiao Meng was far too powerful. He was simply a monster among monsters.

"Yun Shan hasn't broken through to the Dou Zong realm yet, has he?" Just as Ge Ye turned around with unconscious Nalan Yanran in his arms, Xiao Meng asked casually.

"Yun Shan? Dou Zong?"

A chill ran through the hearts of the Xiao Clan members.

Ge Ye turned back, tugged at the corner of his mouth, and forced a smile. "The Old Sect Master is in seclusion. Whether he has broken through or not, we do not know."

"Then Yun Yun should have broken through to the Dou Huang realm, right?" Xiao Meng asked again.

"The Sect Master has indeed broken through to the Dou Huang realm." Fear began rising in Ge Ye's heart. Xiao Meng seemed to know everything about the Cloudmist Sect.

"If you are dissatisfied with what happened today, it would be best to have Yun Shan come in person. Otherwise, I do not mind going on a killing spree," Xiao Meng said casually, glancing at Ge Ye.

Ge Ye was horrified!

"And I do not want today's events to spread. Otherwise, I will personally visit the Cloudmist Sect." After saying this, Xiao Meng did not forget to glance at the young man.

Ge Ye immediately understood Xiao Meng's meaning and said with a forced smile, "Rest assured, Young Master Xiao. What happened today will absolutely not be spread."

Why the hell would he spread it? This was a monstrous humiliation for the Cloudmist Sect. He would not even dare mention it after returning, or he would surely die.

"Three years from now, Xiao Yan will personally make a trip to the Cloudmist Sect. But during this period, if anyone dares use underhanded methods, then when the time comes, I, Xiao Meng, will not be so easy to talk to," Xiao Meng said flatly.

"Understood!"

Xiao Meng's overbearing manner filled Ge Ye with rage, but he dared not voice it.

"Get lost!" Xiao Meng said coldly.

Ge Ye immediately left with Nalan Yanran and the others.

Ding! Hidden mission completed. Reward: two fishing opportunities. [Beating Nalan Yanran badly will spur her to cultivate desperately, causing her cultivation to rise wildly.]
