How could this be?
How could Zhou Xuan break his formation so easily!
"Zhou Xuan, I admit you've got some skills, but today, I will eliminate all these trash under you!"
The middle-aged man let out an angry roar and summoned more black mist, surging towards Zhou Xuan like a flood.
"Heh..."
Zhou Xuan sneered dismissively and waved his hand again.
As the Lingtian Zhanji appeared, even more powerful true qi surged outward.
Countless sword lights flew out, shattering the black mist.
The middle-aged man's face changed drastically, staring at Zhou Xuan in disbelief.
This black mist was something he had refined with great effort!
He never expected Zhou Xuan to deal with it so easily?
Zhou Xuan walked towards the middle-aged man with a cold smile.
The middle-aged man's face turned ashen, grinding his teeth. He controlled the black mist to block Zhou Xuan while quickly retreating outwards.
But how could Zhou Xuan let him escape?
"Boom!"
A gust of fist wind roared, heading straight for the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man couldn't dodge and took a punch head-on. He was sent flying backward, crashing into the stone wall, spitting blood. He coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"Pfft..."
"Ah!"
The middle-aged man ordered everyone for a final strike!
The true qi of over a dozen people leaked out, condensing into a black dragon that soared into the sky.
Zhou Xuan's lips curved slightly, and he waved his hand.
Immediately, countless fireballs flew into the sky, engaging in a fierce battle with the black dragon.
Zhou Xuan stood his ground, unmoving.
As soon as the black dragons touched the flames, they were incinerated.
"So powerful!"
The Baili family members around watched in stunned silence.
The middle-aged man was even more shocked!
These black dragons were the embodiment of their true essence, and even those in the Transcendence realm would have to deal with them for a while. Yet, before Zhou Xuan, they were as fragile as ants!
What was his cultivation?
Was he really in the Creation stage?
Why was the weapon in his hand so bizarrely powerful?
This was impossible!
The middle-aged man shook his head.
In his memory, he had never seen such a monstrous innate Dao body.
"What in the world is going on? How does he have such great strength?"
The middle-aged man was utterly bewildered.
"Pfft!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and the others around him became completely listless.
"Zhou Xuan, you just wait for me!"
The middle-aged man, along with everyone else, fled with their tails between their legs.
Zhou Xuan watched them go with a devilish smile.
"Master. Letting them go just like that? That's too lenient for them."
"What? Do you dare to truly confront the Qin family?"
The Baili family members dared not speak.
Indeed.
Although Zhou Xuan was powerful, the Qin family was such a large family with a century of heritage. He was like an ant trying to shake a tree.
He was merely teaching those troublemakers a small lesson.
"Don't worry, they won't be able to use their true qi for at least a few days after they return."
"Ah? That's it?"
Someone grumbled indignantly.
Immediately, they were slapped back by others.
"In five days, they will naturally come back begging me for help," Zhou Xuan said confidently.
Upon hearing this, all the oppressed Baili family members finally cheered.
"Go, tally up the losses."
"Just wait for the Qin family to send money as compensation."
Zhou Xuan smiled and turned to leave.
A mighty procession entered the Baili family.
Of course, this scene was witnessed by many.
"This... Zhou Xuan actually drove away the Qin family?"
"This... the Qin family is a century-old clan, and he couldn't even withstand a single move?"
"How is this possible? This is the Qin family's Qin Guard Army!"
"Although the Baili family is not a top-tier clan, they are definitely not to be underestimated."
The crowd discussed animatedly.
...
On the other side.
In the main hall of the Qin family.
Qin Zhantian, along with many Qin family elders, was preparing to discuss how to deal with Zhou Xuan.
"Old Ancestor, why do we need to discuss this?"
"Yes, our Qin family owns thousands of acres of land in this area and has thousands of elite soldiers and warriors. What is a mere Zhou Xuan to us? We just need to send out a few elders, and we can immediately destroy him!"
"Shut up!"
"Haven't we embarrassed ourselves enough?"
Qin Zhantian berated them furiously, then continued, "This fellow surnamed Zhou is not an ordinary person. His strength has already reached the late Creation stage, or even higher."
"What? Late Creation stage?!"
Upon hearing this, the Qin family members erupted.
How old was this person?
Not even twenty, right?
This was simply a monstrous talent!
The middle-aged man they sent, Qin Feiyang, was also a Creation stage expert, but he was no match for Zhou Xuan.
Does this mean that the world can no longer accommodate a monster like Zhou Xuan?
The younger disciples of the Qin family all looked dejected.
Qin Zhantian sighed, "Do you know why the Qin family has surpassed the Fang family? It's because of talented people!
"If we cannot eliminate him, then we must win him over!"
"In any case, I don't want to see other vipers threatening the tiger's safety when the tiger is resting."
"What!"
All the Qin family disciples opened their mouths wide in surprise, momentarily speechless.
Qin Zhantian nodded and looked at one of the young men.
"Since the Fang family wants Zhou Xuan, I will definitely bring this person under my banner."
"You go to Cangyun City and investigate, find out who this Zhou Xuan really is."
"Yes!"
...
Fang family.
Old Man Sun, with a fawning expression and putting aside his pride as the head of his family, came to visit, immediately asking for a hundred Condensing Spirit Pills from the Fang family.
"Old Sun, this is not proper. You're taking half of mine right at the start. How will I answer the other families?"
Old Man Fang stated his case.
Old Man Sun rolled his eyes internally.
"Old Fang, let's not beat around the bush."
"If you were willing to share, we wouldn't have to come here."
"Tell me, what are your terms for giving this item away."
Actually, his Sun family had considered making a move on Zhou Xuan.
However, Zhou Xuan had already made it clear that he had no intention of going into seclusion to cultivate and refine this pill.
After all, it was a miraculous pill, and the precious medicinal ingredients alone were not something ordinary people could obtain.
Therefore, the Condensing Spirit Pills of the Fang family had already been priced at an exorbitant amount!
Old Man Sun gritted his teeth, "Fifty million for one Condensing Spirit Pill."
"Hiss~" Old Man Fang couldn't help but gasp.
"You have the nerve to quote this price?"
"Don't forget, this is something that can bring the dead back to life! A treasure that so many people dream of!"
This price was truly not very high.
If it were a hundred pills, that would be 5 billion?
5 billion was nothing to the people of the five great families in the capital; it was like child's play.
"Old Sun, the Condensing Spirit Pills are worth more than this."
"If our Sun family wants Condensing Spirit Pills, no matter how much you ask, we can afford it."
Old Man Sun gritted his teeth and increased the price by another twenty million.
He was certain that these pills were the reason the Fang family dared not sell.
With these items, the Fang family could cultivate more cultivators.
Once their talent surpassed their own, the Fang family could once again return to its peak.
After all, Condensing Spirit Pills could increase a martial artist's cultivation, and once refined, they could enhance a martial artist's combat power by several times, or even ten times or more.
