"Incompetent fools, stand down!"
Chu Kuangren barked, his gaze as cold as ice.
The Heavenly Prides were cowed by his overwhelming strength. Some who considered their cultivation insufficient no longer attacked rashly and backed away.
"After all these years, you're still as imposing as ever!"
An indifferent voice rang out.
