Starting as Peak Master, Signing In for an Ultimate Emperor Armament!

"Actually, they aren't bandits... they're disciples of the Blood Spirit Sect! Disciples of a righteous sect!"

He emphasized "disciples of a righteous sect" deliberately, trying to remind Lin Yang.

"It was me who ordered them to slaughter everyone in Qingyang Town!"

Lin Yang's eyes turned bloodshot with rage as he stared at Ou Haochen. "Why would you do this? What benefit could you possibly gain?"

"Why?"

Ou Haochen chuckled playfully. "Ants aren't qualified to ask why!"

"If I want you dead, you die!"

"If I want you alive, you can't die even if you want to!"

"This is what strength brings. You frogs in a well will never understand."

"Hahaha!"

Ou Haochen's words pierced Lin Yang's heart like needles, a stark and painful reality.

Qingyang Town had been destroyed, and the entire Lin family wiped out, all because they were weak.

When the strong wielded the butcher's knife, they were powerless to resist.

"It seems you haven't experienced true despair yet!"

"Go grab that woman from him. This young master will defile his woman right in front of him until he begs for mercy!"

Ou Haochen sneered.

A group of Blood Spirit Sect disciples disguised as bandits revealed lecherous smiles and advanced on Lin Yang.

At that moment.

Hua Yunfei appeared in the center of the scene. His powerful aura instantly sent all the approaching Blood Spirit Sect disciples flying backward!

With a gentle wave of his hand, all the Blood Spirit Sect disciples disguised as bandits, including the Violet Palace Realm bandit leader, turned to ash, their bodies completely annihilated!

"Who are you?"

Ou Haochen stared vigilantly at Hua Yunfei, unable to comprehend how he had appeared.

Furthermore, the strength this person displayed seemed formidable!

"Young Master, this person is dangerous!"

Two elder Blood Spirit Sect members suddenly appeared, shielding Ou Haochen.

They were elders of the Blood Spirit Sect, responsible for secretly protecting the Young Master's safety!

A person with low-grade Sage talent was worth the Blood Spirit Sect paying any price.

As long as he grew successfully, even if he didn't reach the Sage Realm, achieving the Approaching Dao Realm would bring unimaginable benefits to the Blood Spirit Sect.

Hua Yunfei looked at Ou Haochen, deeply disappointed and regretful.

He had finally encountered someone with suitable talent, only for them to be inherently flawed and utterly lacking in character.

This kind of person was not qualified to be his disciple.

He was even less qualified to be a disciple of the Backer Sect!

This would be true even if he possessed top-grade Sage talent.

"You two, come here."

Hua Yunfei beckoned to Lin Yang and Mu Qingqing.

"Senior."

Lin Yang hesitantly stepped forward. He felt no ill will from Hua Yunfei and could trust him.

"Stand behind me. I will protect you."

Hearing this, Lin Yang and Mu Qingqing were almost moved to tears. They quickly said, "Thank you for your rescue, Senior. In the future..."

Hua Yunfei waved his hand. "No need for thanks. It's just a small effort."

If not for Lin Yang's decent talent and Mu Qingqing's passable talent, he likely wouldn't have appeared.

"Senior."

Lin Yang said, "The opponent is the Young Master of the Blood Spirit Sect, and those two individuals in front of you are likely elders of the sect. You..."

"The Blood Spirit Sect? They're just an insignificant force."

Hua Yunfei said nonchalantly, with his hands behind his back.

Such a minor sect could be dealt with using superficial strength; a mere puff of air could obliterate a large portion of them. There was no need to pay them any mind.

"What big talk!"

Ou Haochen stepped past his two elders, glaring coldly at Hua Yunfei. "I can see you're not much older than me, yet your arrogance surpasses mine!"

"If I'm this strong, shouldn't my words carry weight?"

Hua Yunfei looked at Ou Haochen, a smile tugging at his lips, and said.

"You! I..."

His words left Ou Haochen speechless.

"Damn it!"

He'd never met anyone so shameless, someone who praised themselves so openly?

"Young man, it would be best for you to remain low-key."

An elder spoke, his eyes flashing with cold light, saying:

"I am an elder of the Blood Spirit Sect. If you leave now, I can pretend this never happened. Otherwise, I fear you won't be able to handle the consequences."

Hua Yunfei glanced at him coldly.

Puff!

With just a glance, the speaking elder instantly exploded like a watermelon.

Shards of his body splattered onto Ou Haochen and another elder.

The two were stunned.

Dead... dead?

The remaining elder's expression changed drastically as he hurriedly spoke:

"Senior... we meant no offense... please forgive us. We'll leave now... immediately!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Ou Haochen and prepared to leave.

"Let go."

A remnant soul of a Sage resided within Ou Haochen, giving him immense courage. He wasn't afraid of Hua Yunfei at all.

He refused to believe this person could be stronger than a Sage's remnant soul!

"Young Master! You mustn't make a mistake!"

The elder was close to tears. He knew that if they didn't leave now, they never would!

But he couldn't abandon Ou Haochen and flee alone, otherwise, the Blood Spirit Sect would never forgive him!

Hua Yunfei saw through his reliance and sneered, saying, "A mere remnant soul of a Sage dares to speak of courage?"

Ou Haochen was shocked. "How do you know..."

The elder, in his panic, paused. A Sage's remnant soul?

The entire Blood Spirit Sect didn't even know Ou Haochen harbored such a massive secret!

He suddenly grew excited. With the Young Master possessing Saint-grade low-tier talent, plus the aid of a Sage's remnant soul, perhaps he would lead the Blood Spirit Sect to the pinnacle of the Eastern Region in the future?

Hua Yunfei wasted no words. He flicked his finger, sending a stream of light that landed on Ou Haochen. Immediately, Ou Haochen screamed, his face contorted in pain.

"Don't harm the Young Master!"

The elder shouted in alarm, instantly releasing his peak Violet Palace Realm aura as he gritted his teeth and lunged at Hua Yunfei.

With a puff, before he even got close, he was already turned into a pile of minced meat by Hua Yunfei's aura, dying on the spot without making a sound!

"This senior is truly terrifying!"

Lin Yang and Mu Qingqing watched, dumbfounded, their mouths slightly agape.

Two elders, both at the peak Violet Palace Realm, one was glared to death, the other smashed to death by an aura!

How powerful did one have to be to achieve this?

Lin Yang's breathing quickened as he stared intently at Hua Yunfei's back.

What he had always yearned for was a powerhouse like this to guide him!

Now he had found one!

"Kid, how did you know about my existence?"
