"Damn! What did Jiang Xuan say? He could defeat Jiang Man in just one move?"

"So arrogant! But how could that be possible?"

"Where did Jiang Xuan get such confidence?"

Everyone questioned Jiang Xuan's words. No one believed he could truly do it; they only thought he was making empty boasts.

This caused quite a few Jiang Family disciples' impressions of Jiang Xuan to plummet.

"Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter! Jiang Xuan, I don't know who gave you the confidence to utter such outrageously arrogant words!"

Jiang Man suddenly burst into laughter, staring at Jiang Xuan with utter disdain. "Now, I'll let you see what it means to be crushed by cultivation!"

As his cold words fell, Jiang Man made his move. He threw a punch, intending to suppress Jiang Xuan on the spot!

In an instant, a massive fist imprint appeared in the void. Like a small mountain, it carried the force and momentum to shove mountains and overturn seas as it crashed straight down upon Jiang Xuan.

This punch was Jiang Man's full-force blow at the Four Extremes Peak, its might terrifying.

Jiang Man showed Jiang Xuan no mercy. He wanted nothing more than to ruthlessly crush him before everyone present.

"Jiang Man's punch contains all the power of the Four Extremes Peak. With his formidable vitality and blood, he can even go head-to-head with Dragon Transformation Realm cultivators! This time, Jiang Xuan is really going to suffer!" "I wonder how Jiang Xuan will deal with this punch?"

The crowd stared fixedly at Jiang Xuan without blinking, all wanting to see just what the White-Robed God King's son was capable of.

Yet in the very next second, everyone present fell silent, and the entire space abruptly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!

They saw that, facing Jiang Man's full-force punch, Jiang Xuan's face did not show the slightest ripple of emotion. He was incomparably calm; he did not even blink.

Only when Jiang Man's punch was about to strike Jiang Xuan did Jiang Xuan finally move.

He stretched out a hand and lightly slashed through the void.

Whoosh!

A streak of white sword light flashed and vanished.

Boom!

In an instant, Jiang Man's punch was dissolved. His body froze before Jiang Xuan, his eyes wide open as he stared at Jiang Xuan.

"Be more careful in your next life."

Jiang Xuan spoke blandly, expressionless.

Pfft!

In an instant, blood gushed from Jiang Man's neck like a spring. His body fell straight backward, devoid of all breath.

Jiang Xuan had killed Jiang Man with one sword—no, it could only be said that he had lightly slashed through the air with his hand!

And all of this had happened in the blink of an eye, leaving the onlookers without even enough time to react.

[Shock +99!] [Shock +99!] [Shock +99!] ...

Only after quite some time did the crowd finally come back to their senses.

But this time, when they looked at Jiang Xuan, the doubt and curiosity from before were gone. What remained was boundless horror and overwhelming shock.

With a casual swipe through the air, he had killed Jiang Man, a Four Extremes Peak cultivator!

What kind of terrifying strength was that? Jiang Man ranked among the top ten within the Jiang Family and was one of the strongest members of the younger generation below the Dragon Transformation Realm.

Yet such a prodigy had been slaughtered by Jiang Xuan as easily as a chicken.

It was simply too astonishing! "Jiang Xuan actually erased Jiang Man in one move! His strength... is terrifying!"

"Wasn't Jiang Xuan only at the Dao Palace Early Stage a few days ago? Now he can kill someone at the Four Extremes Peak? Is that kind of improvement speed even human?" "A monster! He really is a monster!"

After recovering from their shock, the crowd all cried out, marveling at the terrifying growth of Jiang Xuan's strength.

"Just an ant. Since he was a fool from the Grand Elder's line, he deserved to die."

Jiang Xuan coldly glanced at Jiang Man's corpse on the ground and spoke indifferently.

Then, Jiang Xuan prepared to continue on to the Jiang Family Forbidden Zone to find the Ninth Ancestor.

But at that moment.

A voice of boundless fury suddenly exploded between heaven and earth, and a terrifying aura instantly blanketed the entire martial arts arena! "Jiang Xuan! You actually killed Man'er! I'll make you pay for his life!"

That voice brimmed with limitless rage, as if it wanted to cut Jiang Xuan into a thousand pieces.

"The Grand Elder, that old dog?"

Hearing that voice, Jiang Xuan's expression changed slightly, though it was merely a faint ripple. He was not particularly alarmed.

In fact, even the surrounding Jiang Family disciples were more panicked than Jiang Xuan.

"The Grand Elder is here!" "Jiang Xuan killed his son. He's here to take revenge on Jiang Xuan!"

"Jiang Xuan... is in danger!"

The crowd erupted into chaos. Some had even quietly slipped away to find Jiang Wuhui and ask him to save Jiang Xuan.

"Jiang Xuan, why did you kill my son? If you cannot give me an explanation today, not even the Family Head will be able to protect you!"

Grand Elder Jiang Mochen shattered the void and looked down on Jiang Xuan from above. Boundless fury filled his face, his eyes were wide with rage, and veins bulged across his forehead.

In truth, Jiang Man's attempt to cause trouble for Jiang Xuan had been instigated by him. His purpose had been to probe just how far Jiang Xuan's current strength had reached, so that his son, Jiang Yifei, could be prepared.

But he had never expected Jiang Xuan's strength to improve so drastically in only a few days, nor that Jiang Xuan would erase Jiang Man with a single move.

Such an outcome was something Jiang Mochen had never imagined even in his dreams.

Although he knew that Jiang Xuan possessed two supreme physiques and had terrifying talent.

He had thought that, at most, Jiang Xuan would fight Jiang Man to a draw. He had never expected Jiang Xuan's strength to have reached such a terrifying level.

"Grand Elder, Jiang Man provoked me first. I had merely intended to spar with him normally. Who could have expected that fellow to be so frail? One casual move from me actually killed him outright."

Jiang Xuan's expression was as calm as water. He met Jiang Mochen's gaze directly, neither humble nor overbearing, and spoke indifferently.

"What twisted logic! That sword of yours was clearly a killing sword. You deliberately intended to kill my son!"

Jiang Mochen snorted coldly, glaring at Jiang Xuan as he spoke in extreme anger.

"Grand Elder, that move of mine cannot even be called a sword strike. I merely made a light slash, and every cultivator present can testify to that."

Jiang Xuan remained composed, his expression utterly calm and without the slightest fear. He paused, then continued:

"Grand Elder, your son was trash. He could not withstand even one casual blow from me. Can you blame me for that?"

Boom!

Jiang Xuan's words were like a thunderclap exploding through the space, making everyone present tremble.

For a moment, everyone fell silent, not daring to utter a word for fear of inviting unnecessary trouble.

Yet inwardly, they actually felt that Jiang Xuan was right!

That was indeed the truth.

Jiang Man had been the one to provoke him first, and Jiang Xuan had been forced to accept the challenge.

And just as Jiang Xuan had said, he had casually made one move and directly erased Jiang Man.
