Accompanied by a majestic voice, amidst the tremors of the void, a middle-aged man stepped forward, his immense pressure instantly enveloping the entire world.
"Ah--that's, Lin Clan Head!"
"Has the Lin Clan Head been alerted by what's happening here? This matter seems to have escalated!"
" Lin Clan Head truly deserves to be called one of the top figures in our Eastern Wasteland; his aura is incredibly powerful!"
As the majestic figure strode towards them through the void, countless people trembled with fear.
They knew that Lin Chengtian was deliberately suppressing this.
Otherwise, if it were just a burst of oppressive power, there probably wouldn't be many cultivators here who could survive.
Ye Xuan looked up at the majestic figure.
His expression remained unchanged, his back straight, and he remained as proud as ever.
Even when facing such a powerful figure, he showed no fear whatsoever, and calmly said:
"Your Lin Clan members blocked this Holy Son from entering the city and even sent eight Late Golden Core cultivators to ambush and kill me. Are you saying I'm not allowed to resist?"
"People from the Carefree Holy Land enter the city, and your Lin Clan doesn't stop them. People from the Jade Lake Holy Land enter the city, and your Lin Clan doesn't stop them either. Even if some Lineage Tianjiao enter the city, your Lin Clan still won't stop them."
"But you insist on stopping this Holy Son. I'd like to ask you, does your Lin Clan consider me easy to bully, or does the Ancient Desolate Holy Land seem easy to bully?"
The scene was silent, deathly still.
No one expected that Ye Xuan would show no fear even when facing a big figure like Lin Chengtian.
His back remained perfectly straight, standing proudly and unyielding even under immense pressure.
Lin Chengtian was furious upon hearing Ye Xuan's words.
How dare a mere junior speak to him like that in front of everyone, how dare he question him in public! It's simply outrageous!
Even though Ye Xuan is the Holy Son of the Ancient Desolate Holy Land Ancient Desolate Holy Land and holds a prestigious position there, he is still just a junior. What gives him the right to be so arrogant in front of Lin Chengtian?
In particular, looking at the six dead Lin Clan Golden Core cultivators and the still-wet bloodstains.
His anger erupted uncontrollably, and a murderous intent emanated from him.
Ye Xuan's perception was incredibly sharp, especially with the activation of his Absolute Domain.
He sensed the killing intent as soon as it entered within ten meters of him.
For a moment, even Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
If Lin Chengtian were to kill him, and his beautiful master did not intervene, then he would surely die.
There is absolutely no possibility of struggling.
Ye Xuan's eyes turned icy, his anger erupting, and he was about to make a move.
A sarcastic voice, meant to sow discord, suddenly rang out.
" Holy Son Ye, you really have quite the airs! How dare you be so disrespectful and aggressive towards your elders? Is this how the Ancient Desolate Holy Land taught you?"
Along with the sound, another figure stepped out.
This man wore a wicked smile, and his eyes were terrifyingly sinister.
It was Ge Tian!
Upon seeing Ge Tian appear, another uproar erupted at the scene.
Ye Xuan's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and he said coldly:
"Respect is mutual. The Lin Clan bullied me, and they think my Ancient Desolate Holy Land has no one to rely on. Why should I respect them?"
"And who do you think you are? Do you even have the right to speak here? What business is it of yours, you old dog, between this Holy Son and the Lin Clan?"
Ye Xuan still had some leeway when facing Lin Chengtian, but he left no room for maneuver when facing Ge Tian.
This Ge Tian wanted him dead during the investiture ceremony.
They then sent ten Golden Core cultivators to surround and kill him, and even sent Yang Kaitai.
At this point, he jumped out again to stir up trouble and sow discord.
Ye Xuan's dislike for him was overwhelming.
"You little beast, you're asking for death!" Ge Tian was also furious upon hearing this!
He never expected that Ye Xuan would be so audacious as to humiliate him in front of everyone.
It's one thing to publicly insult him as someone, but to call him an old dog is simply outrageous and lawless!
Ge Tian couldn't hold back for a moment, and his killing intent erupted instantly!
Ye Xuan was also greatly shocked!
Fortunately, given Lin Chengtian's previous murderous intent, he was prepared and responded instantly.
Almost as soon as Ge Tian's killing intent erupted, Ye Xuan coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The next moment, he was sent flying backwards like a kite with a broken string.
While still in mid-air, Ye Xuan roared hysterically, "Old dog, you dare to ambush me? Is there no one left in my Ancient Desolate Holy Land?"
Almost as soon as Ye Xuan finished speaking...
Everyone, including Ge Tian, was completely bewildered.
A deafening roar suddenly erupted, and the next second, everyone was horrified to discover that a vast and terrifying palm print had suddenly appeared in the sky.
Immediately afterwards, the giant palm print, accompanied by a thunderous roar, seemed to carry an apocalyptic pressure as it struck directly at Ge Tian.
Ge Tian felt the power emanating from that power, and was utterly terrified.
Zhang Yuan old face, which had been filled with anger and murderous intent, turned pale in an instant.
He screamed frantically, "No--"
Bang!
A loud bang.
The giant palm print slammed into Ge Tian Ge Tian, who immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying.
His body swept past countless palaces and pavilions, and wherever he passed, those palaces and pavilions collapsed.
On the ground, terrifying ravines spread out, causing countless cultivators to collapse to the ground in shock and fear.
This scene was absolutely terrifying.
The person who made the move was extremely powerful, having mastered a subtle level of control over their own Spiritual Qi.
Otherwise, the aftershock of that single palm strike would have been enough to kill everyone around.
Lin Chengtian, who had been so dignified and domineering, couldn't help but twitch his lips a few times upon seeing this scene, and his face turned slightly pale.
He looked up at the sky in horror, at Ge Tian who had been blasted away to an unknown place, and was equally terrified, his soul trembling.
Who the hell is this Ancient Desolate Holy Land monster? Is he really that crazy, attacking Ge Tian directly?
At this moment, he suddenly wasn't so angry anymore; instead, he felt somewhat fortunate.
Fortunately, Ye Xuan didn't trick him; otherwise, he would probably be the one flying backwards now.
Others might not know, but he knew very well that the killing intent Ge Tian had unleashed earlier was simply not enough to harm Ye Xuan.
But Ye Xuan, instead of being able to expel blood, was sent flying backward, clearly trying to trick Ge Tian.
What a truly insidious little bastard!
Ye Xuan was also somewhat shocked when he saw the large palm print, and his face turned pale.
Oh my god, that's terrifying!
Speaking of which, was this taken by my beautiful master?
He didn't know either.
A faint voice drifted from the void, ethereal and seemingly emanating from the Nine Heavens.
"Who dares to bully my Ancient Desolate Holy Land? I'll let it go this time, but this is a one-time exception! If anyone dares to bully the weak again, I will annihilate them!"
The sounds were deafening, and the killing intent was overwhelming, but this time, no one dared to utter a single word.
Meanwhile, in a void unseen by anyone.
The Ninth Ancestor and Han Bingning stood there.
He came with Ye Xuan and the other person, but he remained hidden in the shadows and did not show himself.
The Ninth Ancestor withdrew his hand, clicking his tongue in admiration. "Awesome, damn awesome! Just watching that kid swagger around and show off in front of everyone has made this old man itchy to join in."
Han Bingning retorted with dissatisfaction, "You went too lightly. If you're going to intimidate, you should kill them with a single blow and shock everyone!"
"What a waste of the opportunity Ye Xuan created! Next time something like this happens, let me handle it!"
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Ancestor's lips twitched slightly.
Did he go easy on me?
Ge Tian is already half-crippled; he won't recover anytime soon.
However, considering Han Bingning's style, he didn't dwell on the topic any further, but instead sighed and said:
"After today, those forces that want to join forces with the Carefree Holy Land will have to think twice!"
"However, Ye Xuan is under a lot more pressure. Whether it's competing for a spot in the secret realm or vying for opportunities inside, he'll likely face considerable targeting."
