Chapter 211 The Frightening Existence in the Zuoqiu Family
“Oh my God! Is it really them?”
Startled sounds came from the cultivators underneath nonstop. The three men hovering high in the clouds were the ones that the Northern Underworlder called for earlier: Cang He, Qing Xu, Mo Changkong.
They had entered the Nascent Soul Realm years ago and had spent the past hundred years contemplating the nature of life and death. They had basically never stepped outside during that time, but they were household names in the Middle Continent.
“Don’t tell me that they’re now in the mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm. How did Zuoqiu family’s promise of a single Nirvana Pill attract them here?”
The crowd was agitated, having never imagined that the commotion today would attract such impressive people. They were in for a good show.
Xiao Chen’s heart dropped. There were truly many experts hiding within the Middle Continent. He addressed the men in the sky and said, “Seniors, I don’t wish to make you my enemies! Please leave this place immediately!”
The old man holding a horsetail whisk sneered. “Presumptuous!” he yelled and swiped his horsetail whisk downward. Instantly, countless buildings collapsed as if they were hit by immense pressure and disintegrated into dust.
Seeing this, the twelve women cried in unison, “Be careful, Master!” They soared into the sky and formed a Barrier in an instant. But how could they block the attack of a mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator? The Barrier instantly shattered and the women fell to the ground with the force of a falling meteorite.
Dust flew everywhere. The onlooking cultivators outside had fled far away, but they were able to witness this scene clearly. Even the teamwork of the twelve women of the Hidden Fragrance Wafting Under the Moon was too weak to resist a single swipe of the old man’s horsetail whisk. The strength of a mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator was terrifying as expected.
Xiao Chen helped the woman closest to him to get back on her feet. “How are you doing?”
The woman suffered only light injuries. She replied, “Master, forgive me for failing to protect you!”
Xiao Chen flicked his sleeve and glared at the men in the clouds. “Since you refused to listen to my advice, announce your name!”
The old man holding a horsetail whisk sneered. “Qing Xu!” While speaking, he and his two companions turned into three sword radiance and landed on the ground.
“You’re really acting as if the older generation is six feet under. Did you youngsters think you can overturn the Violet Manor just because you’re a bit capable?”
His overbearing force was evident in his voice, so much so that even the cultivators several thousand feet away could feel a great pressure on them. In recent years, those from the older generations rarely made an appearance in the wild. It had indeed afforded the young ones more courage.
Xiao Chen didn’t seem scared even in the face of such a strong power. He said icily, “Older generation? You dare call yourself someone from the older generation when you’re just 300 years old?”
Qing Xu narrowed his eyes. “Oh? So you’re the rumored Xiao Chen? The younger generations will surpass us in time, indeed.”
Cang He said emotionlessly, “Old Qing Xu, why bother wasting your breath on these youngsters? Just kill him and collect the Nirvana Pill.”
Yi Tong chuckled. “These babies just won’t stop mentioning about the younger generation. I wonder if they’re not afraid of biting their tongue.”
“Is that so?!” Qing Xu’s eyes flashed with a cold glint. Suddenly, he swiped his horsetail whisk. Yi Tong neither dodged nor evaded it. He slashed the air with his finger and countless flying flowers unfolded, blocking the strength of the whisk.
Qing Xu narrowed his eyes and said solemnly, “Not bad. Even though you’re young, you’re already a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.”
Yi Tong raised his head and laughed heartily. “There are countless ways to achieve the same outcome in this world. I’m not a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, but I suppose I’m more than good enough to handle babies like you.”
“Then you’re free to try me!” Qing Xu bellowed, attacking as swift as lightning.
On the other side, Cang He whose hand was holding a wooden staff blurred out of view as he lunged at None-flower Dust. None-flower Dust smiled and gave his fan a slight wave. Immediately, two doppelgangers appeared and started fighting Cang He. Even though they were doppelgangers, they were no weaker than the real thing.
The cultivators watching in the distance yelped in surprise. “His doppelganger technique is as extraordinary as rumored!”
The final one, Mo Changkong who held an Immortal’s Sword, was delighting in the fact that he had gotten what appeared to be the weakest link. He controlled his flying sword to make a straight stab at Xiao Chen.
