Xue Hanjie furrowed his brows in anger. Was this junior demanding him to give up his possessions or suffer crippling? Who did he believe himself to be? Normally, one would expect a violent response filled with arrogance and underestimation, but Xue Hanjie wasn't stupid.

This youth had a powerful foundation and filled with profound confidence. It's likely that he didn't consider him a threat, but from his memory, he couldn't recall anyone who resembled this junior. Making such a threat haphazardly is how one gets killed, but acting in anger under a threat is how forces get wiped out. Underestimation is how the Li Clan Patriarch died today.

He would not follow such an example.

He twisted his right palm, causing a trace of qi-essence to surge outwards, aiming to turn Sun Huan into meat paste. His left hand pulled backwards, causing his physical pressure to change directions, causing Li Ruogang and Li Qiyu's body to shot towards him with a quickness.

Whoever this kid was, he had little intention to play around any longer. He wouldn't attack some unknown individual due to anger nor would he give up his possessions because of a single sentence. If his senior comes to discuss, he'll discuss and give a little compensation for whatever inconvenience or grievance this person had. However, if nothing comes of it, he'll go about his life.

”Oh? I see. You made your choice then.” Yan Zaizen decided, if someone didn't wish to choose, then he'll choose from them. This has always been the case. A flash of silver-blue light with motes of white light erupted from his pupils, despite his soul energy being limited to 5% maximum, this didn't mean it was useless, the power of a half-step Perfect Aurora Soul still remained with each percentage. To a half-step True Essence Cultivator? This was more than enough.

PNEUMA DISRUPTION!

An invisible ripple that no one could see surged outwards with astonishing speed. Xue Hanjie felt an overwhelming sensation of danger built up from thousands of years of combat. However, the speed of soul energy was far too quick for him to react to, not to mention, he had exerted over 90% of his qi-essence in the battle earlier, how could he formulate a suitable defense against this sudden attack?!

He felt a tremendous pressure exert itself on his soul form, directly intending to penetrate and snuff out his soul flame. A talisman placed within his body suddenly shattered, causing a barrier of energy to formulate itself around his soul form. This was a method many cultivators would take against sudden soul attacks, but this barrier was useless against Yan Zaizen. If Yan Zaizen was a normal Advanced Aurora Soul expert, then this barrier would've worked.

Unfortunately, Yan Zaizen infused his dao into this strike! He was also at the half-step Perfect Aurora Soul Realm, how could this talisman stop his momentum?

The barrier was shattered like glass, the aura rampaged inside his soul form, causing extensive damage and directly damaging his soul flame. It flickered weakly in defiance. This soul flame contained all of his memories, personality, and instincts within. If this flame was gone, he would be nothing more than a vegetable without an imprinted consciousness.

Fortunately for him, Yan Zaizen didn't go for the kill. Unfortunately for him, Xue Hanjie suffered extreme damage to his soul. A mouthful of vomit and blood suddenly spewed out his mouth like a geyser. His qi-essence immediately was left without control, dispersing in the air like a harmless blood-colored light. The Li female duo was dropped suddenly without his control.

”AHHHHH!!!” He shrieked in unimaginable pain, holding his head and chest in unison. Due to the fact the soul was interconnected to his mind, if it was damaged harshly, it could cause damage to one's psyche. This shriek attracted the attention of all the experts in the city, and many auras were already making their way over, including Xue Hanjie's Blood Fiend Sect members.

Yan Zaizen, however, didn't care about any of that. While Xue Hanjie squirmed in pain, he approached, arriving next to him with the Ascending Raindrops Technique. ”I'm not done.” His words were exceedingly vicious, and he placed his strong hands atop Xue Hanjie's head, his eyes filled with malicious intent.

A flash of imperceptible soul energy flickered into his body, severely damaging his meridians, pathways, and dantian. True Essence experts were insidiously difficult to cripple. Their meridians, pathways, and dantian were simply too extraordinary, and their Origin Core had already fused completely into their bodies. However, half-step True Essence Experts had a semi-fused Origin Core and could be targeted and destroyed with a sufficient force.

If this was destroyed, their bloodline would no longer exist within their bodies with no hope for recovery. It was a very precarious stage of development.

CRUSH!!

Xue Hanjie's core was shattered mercilessly, his spatial possessions were extracted with the swiftness of a practiced thief. Yan Zaizen's eyes flashed slightly. The others were approaching.

A light lit up on Yan Zaizen's finger.
