Xiang Shaoyun was not the one injured in the exchange. It was the eighth-stage Transformation Realm cultivator. That person's cultivation level might be higher, but Xiang Shaoyun's combat power was no weaker than his. More importantly, Xiang Shaoyun's innate purple lightning was terrifyingly destructive. An ordinary person would not be able to withstand it.
Xiang Shaoyun did not want a prolonged battle. That was why he used the innate purple lightning right from the start. After crippling his opponent's arm, he took the chance and followed up with a punch to his opponent's stomach.
Bang!
The eighth-stage Transformation Realm cultivator was fully wrapped in a layer of energy barrier, but Xiang Shaoyun's punch was too powerful. His energy barrier was instantly shattered, and he was sent flying while coughing blood. If that person was even slightly weaker, that punch of Xiang Shaoyun's would have been enough to take his life.
Wen Jinnuo had been standing behind waiting for an opportunity to capture Xiang Shaoyun during the chaos, but when he saw how vicious Xiang Shaoyun was, he s.h.i.+vered, ”How is that kid so strong?”
He had heard from his father that Xiang Shaoyun was merely a second-stage Transformation Realm cultivator, a similar level of cultivation to him. But the combat prowess Xiang Shaoyun displayed just now was definitely not at the level of a second-stage Transformation Realm cultivator.
With what he just witnessed, he would believe it even if someone told him Xiang Shaoyun was actually a peak Transformation Realm cultivator. Standing right behind Xiang Shaoyun, Gong Qinyin was able to feel clearly just how powerful he was. Inwardly, she cried out in astonishment, He has already reached the Transformation Realm!
Xiang Shaoyun had been able to battle Transformation Realm cultivators ever since he was at the Astral Realm. Now that he was a Transformation Realm cultivator himself, his combat power became even more impressive. Gong Qinyin was in great shock over what she saw.
One ought to know that before this, Xiang Shaoyun used to run from her to avoid being beaten up. But he had grown rapidly and eventually surpa.s.sed her, to the point she now felt she would never catch up to him. The realization caused her to feel disheartened. All along, she had been confident in her talent in cultivation. But now, she realized that she had merely been a frog in a well.
I want to get strong as well! Gong Qinyin vowed to herself before she raised her sword and joined the battle.
The battle did not last long as the city enforcers arrived soon after.
”Everyone, stop now or die!” a loud voice rang out in the air.
A group of people mounted on tigers appeared. The leader of the group was a middle-aged man with a clear kingly aura around him. This was an enforcement squad of Cloud Margin City, led by the commander of the squad who was also a Skysoar Realm cultivator.
Their appearance caused the Gong Clan and Wen Clan to quickly break off from the fight. Even Gong Lianda and the two Kings from the Wen Clan did not dare to fight in their presence and returned to their respective groups as well.
”Creating trouble in the city is prohibited. All of you have the nerves to start a battle here? Are you challenging the city hall and the Cloud Margin Pavilion?” the middle-aged man berated as he glared at the two groups. He could see that the two groups were decently sized clans in the city, but even so, he showed no mercy when berating them.
”Lord, I am an outer disciple of the pavilion, Wen Jinnuo. They have stolen something belonging to the Wen Clan. We are only here to take back what's ours. But for some reason, the Gong Clan stepped out to prevent us from doing that. Please uphold justice, lord,” Wen Jinnuo was no fool and immediately thought of an excuse to s.h.i.+ft the blame.
