The moon hung like a silver platter amid a sky full of stars, above a street in Heaven Dou City.
After their lightning-fast exchange, Xiao Yan could clearly tell that the old man before him was a Soul Douluo.
Fortunately, they were not in the city center. Although their clash had caused quite a commotion, it had not drawn the City Defense Army over.
"Brat, a mere Soul Ancestor like you dares interfere in my affairs?" Light blazed in Tai Tan's eyes, and his words made the surrounding air tremble.
"Besides, that little girl behind you was the one who struck my grandson with something first. She's no ordinary child. If I hadn't put a little more strength into that attack, I doubt things would have ended well for me!"
Looking at Tai Tan, who stood before him like a towering mountain, Xiao Yan frowned slightly. He held back Little Dragon Girl, whose small face had flushed with anger after Tai Tan dispersed her force and nearly humiliated her, and said calmly, "Then what else do you want today?"
"Hmph!" Tai Tan did not answer, merely snorting coldly. Eight soul rings-two yellow, two purple, and four black-spiraled up from beneath his feet. The surrounding air seemed to twist again, sending out ripples like those on water.
His eyes cooling slightly, Xiao Yan gazed calmly at Tai Tan, who had once again activated his martial soul possession. He knew that if they truly fought, he would be no match for this old man unless he unleashed the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus.
If he unleashed the Buddha's Fury Fire Lotus here, innocent civilians would certainly be caught in it. Such a huge disturbance might also draw the City Defense Army over.
Should I apologize to this old man? Or take him head-on?
