"What do you want?"

Chen Xuan's eyes narrowed as he stared at the three people who had burst through his door.

It seemed they meant trouble.

He was sure he'd never seen these people before, nor had he offended them.

But they looked like they were here to pick a fight, to stir up trouble.

"It's very simple, I'm going to teach you a lesson," one of them sneered. "Because you offended someone you shouldn't have."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them simultaneously circulated their Dou Qi, releasing a powerful aura.

Without another word, they attacked Chen Xuan.

The three appeared to be in their early twenties; one had the strength of a 9th-stage Dou Qi Power user, and the other two were 1-star Dou Zhe.

Their attacks were ruthless, each one aimed at Chen Xuan's vital points.

Seeing their heavy-handed approach, Chen Xuan's expression hardened.

Although he was only a 1-star Dou Zhe, he was absolutely not afraid of the three of them working together.

His aura surged, and Dou Qi Power enveloped his entire body.

Relying on his physical advantage, he allowed their attacks to land on him, treating it as a form of body tempering.

But his own attacks were something his opponents couldn't resist.

After all, he possessed a high-grade Yellow-tier Combat Skill, incredibly powerful.

Even if the three of them had Combat Skills, their power couldn't compare to Chen Xuan's.

A giant tiger's phantom appeared, radiating immense power, accompanied by roaring tiger sounds.

The fight between the four unfolded in the room, chairs shattering under the impact.

Relying on his physique and speed, Chen Xuan quickly brought the three of them down.

Stepping on the face of one of the fallen, Chen Xuan's eyes narrowed, a cold glint flashing within them. "Three against one, and you still couldn't win. You're truly useless."

Terror filled the eyes of the three.

They had expected to easily teach Chen Xuan a lesson, never imagining such an outcome.

"Kid, there are some people you can't afford to offend."

"Offend us, and you won't have an easy time in the sect."

"This won't be over easily. Just wait for our revenge."

Though the three were no match for Chen Xuan, they were incredibly arrogant.

Clearly, they had something to rely on.

Chen Xuan sneered, "I've never been afraid of trouble. Since I've already offended you, I might as well go all the way."

A malicious grin spread across his face, and he raised his hand, savagely slapping the three of them.

Slap, slap, slap…

He mercilessly slapped their faces. Each slap landed with a painful thud, making them wince. It was not a pleasant experience.

The three had been cursing at first, but eventually, they began to beg for mercy.

"Tell me, who exactly sent you here?" Chen Xuan asked, staring at them.

These three were just small fries; the real person hadn't shown up yet.

For someone to use these three as lackeys, the person behind it must not be simple.

"It was Senior Brother Li Wei," the three said in unison.

"Li Wei?" Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow. "What's Li Wei's background? How strong is he? Why is he targeting me?"

Having just arrived at the Cloud Mist Sect, Chen Xuan didn't know this person named Li Wei.

Why would he want to deal with him?

"Li Wei is the grandson of the Third Elder. He's a core disciple and an 8-star Dou Zhe."

"Because of Nalan Yanran, Senior Brother Li Wei wants to teach you a lesson."

"Senior Brother Li Wei likes Nalan Yanran."

The three answered one after another.

Hearing their answers, Chen Xuan finally understood what was going on.

"Leave all the Gold Coins you have. You kicked down my door, so you'll have to pay for the damages. Otherwise, I won't let you leave easily."

A sinister curve appeared on Chen Xuan's lips, his tone chillingly dark.

Encountering three pushovers, he naturally intended to extort them.

After all, he needed money, and the more, the better.

Seeing Chen Xuan's fierce expression, the three of them were scared and had no choice but to obediently hand over the Gold Coins they had on them.

Only after giving up the Gold Coins were the three allowed to leave.

"Tsk, less than a thousand Gold Coins combined from the three of them. What a bunch of poor folks," Chen Xuan scoffed.

"Li Wei, right? You just wait. This won't be settled easily because I hold a serious grudge." This grudge was already etched in Chen Xuan's mind.

As a Flat-headed Brother, how could he let this matter slide?

When he found an opportunity, he would make sure Li Wei learned his lesson.

The three men, having been severely beaten by Chen Xuan, returned with injuries all over their bodies.

They arrived at a private room and bowed their heads before a young man.

The young man was dressed in noble attire, and his young face held a chilling expression.

After listening to the trio's account, the young man raised his hand and slapped all three of them. "You three good-for-nothings! Three against one, and you couldn't even win!"

The three hung their heads in shame, not daring to speak.

"Mo Feng, you're a Mo Family disciple. If you were beaten, Mo Li should get justice for you, right?" The young man's gaze fixed on Mo Feng.

"Senior Brother Li Wei, I know what to do," Mo Feng replied.

Li Wei was very satisfied with Mo Feng's answer. He waved his hand, signaling the three to leave.

After Mo Feng and the others left, Li Wei's cold eyes flickered with a faint murderous intent. "A new disciple dares to lay hands on the woman I fancy. He must be tired of living."

As the grandson of the Third Elder, Li Wei's status in the Cloud Mist Sect was naturally self-evident.

Even disciples stronger than him dared not easily offend him.

A new disciple was even less worth Li Wei's attention.

He wanted to make this new disciple understand that some people were not to be provoked.

When Mo Feng found Mo Li, he recounted the entire incident of him being beaten, naturally adding his own embellishments.

After listening to Mo Feng's story, Mo Li was furious.

"This kid is too arrogant," Mo Li said coldly.

To get justice for Mo Feng, Mo Li went directly to find Chen Xuan.

He already disliked Chen Xuan, and now with this incident, he decided to seize the opportunity.

He wanted to teach Chen Xuan a lesson.

Soon, he went to find Chen Xuan.

"Kid, did you beat Mo Feng?" Mo Li glared at Chen Xuan and asked.

Glancing at Mo Feng behind Mo Li, Chen Xuan shrugged and said indifferently, "He came looking for trouble, so I just taught him a small lesson."

His eyes narrowed, and Mo Li's gaze turned cold. "My Mo Family members are not for you to teach a lesson to. You will pay for this."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan looked at Mo Li with interest and chuckled, "Senior Brother, are you trying to bully me, a new disciple? Aren't you afraid of the Sect Rules?"

His expression was grim, and Mo Li's eyes flickered.

He knew the Sect Rules were strict and didn't dare to violate them easily.

But letting this matter go? That was definitely not an option.

"I challenge you to a duel. If you win, then this matter will be as if it never happened. If you lose, then you will kowtow and apologize to Mo Feng," Mo Li said sharply.

"How shameless. A four-star Dou Zhe challenging a one-star Dou Zhe to a duel, and you have the nerve to say it," Chen Xuan scoffed with disdain.

He thought he was shameless enough, but he didn't expect Mo Li to be even more so.

Mo Li didn't care about any of that; after all, one's face couldn't feed them.

He just wanted to teach Chen Xuan a lesson.

"What? As a man, you don't dare to accept?" Mo Li sneered.

"Don't try to provoke me with such low-level taunts; it won't work," Chen Xuan said playfully. "If you want me to accept the duel, that's fine, but it has to be in ten days, and if you lose, you'll give me twenty thousand Gold Coins."

"Are you sure?" Mo Li was somewhat surprised to see Chen Xuan agree.

"If you have money, we duel. If not, no deal," Chen Xuan scoffed.

"Alright, I'll have an elder supervise it then," Mo Li agreed to Chen Xuan's request.

Twenty thousand Gold Coins were nothing; Mo Li could afford it.

To teach Chen Xuan a lesson, Mo Li thought it was worth it.

"Then scram," Chen Xuan ordered him away.

Mo Li gave Chen Xuan a cold look and left with Mo Feng.

Soon, the news of their duel in ten days became known and spread wildly throughout the sect.

Many people felt that Chen Xuan was too arrogant, daring to duel Mo Li, a four-star Dou Zhe.

After Nalan Yanran learned of this news, she believed that Chen Xuan had no idea what he was getting into.

After all, the difference between a one-star Dou Zhe and a four-star Dou Zhe was too great.
