Xuan’s eyes, which had been filled with cold disdain, now had a dangerous glint.
"Your insults an nothing to ," he said, his voice dropping to a low, lethal hum. "But you looked at my won. For that, you will die a very painful death."
"Haha, who are you? A nobody standing behind won." Sha Lou laughed.
He wasn’t affected by Xuan’s threat; he was confident that no one could touch him inside the East River City.
However, his confident expression suddenly changed when he saw Xuan’s cruel smile. For a second, his world seed to distort, and when it returned, he heard the elders and guards shouting.
"Leave the young master! You’re calling for your death, boy!" a guard yelled.
"Surround him! He won’t dare to harm the young master!" an elder shouted, his cultivation bursting forth to help Sha Lou.
anwhile, Sha Lou, petrified by the sudden change of events, felt his body floating in the air.
He found his throat clenched tightly in Xuan’s grasp. How!’
The thought scread through Sha Lou’s mind as his absolute terror set in.
He tried to rember how he had been caught in Xuan’s grasp within a single second, but he couldn’t rember except that last smirk.
...
Having made up his mind after seeing Sha Lou’s derogatory comnt about Bai Hua, Xuan used his Divine Floating Steps, disappearing and reappearing in a flash.
He caught Sha Lou completely off-guard.
Sha Lou, who had believed that no one could touch him, was now at Xuan’s rcy, yelled.
"Leav...Leave ..." he tried to speak, but Xuan only tightened his grip. Xuan then looked at the elders, who were ready to unleash their fury as soon as he let Sha Lou go.
The Ru family now looked even more terrified. They all had the sa thought: If this madman could attack Young Master Sha Lou, were they next?
Ignoring them all, Xuan spoke in a very stern tone. "Didn’t I tell you? You will die a very painful death for insulting my won." Suddenly, the hand clutching Sha Lou’s neck began to burn.
"STOP! You dare!" a shout ca from the sky as Sha Vejun, the City Lord, finally arrived.
His cultivation at the Half-step Earth Master Realm descended upon Xuan, a pressure that should have crushed a low-level cultivator like Xuan but he halted to not to hurt his own son.
Sha Vejun had thought that upon his arrival, he would see the defeated faces of Zhao Zen Wu and his allies, but to his surprise, he saw a young man in the middle of the encirclent ready to kill his son.
The sight was a cold, brutal shock.
"Leave Sha Lou, and I’ll grant you a quick death."
Even while threatening, he was sure his opponents would die, but he couldn’t afford to lose his son, so he offered Xuan a chance at an easy death.
Xuan chuckled, a cold tone lacing his voice. "A quick death? I don’t want a quick death—not for , and not for those who have insulted my family."
Suddenly, the fire which had ignited slowly now began to rage. "AHHHHAAAAA!"
Sha Lou’s ear-piercing cry spread, wrenching the hearts of all who watched.
Xuan loosened his grip and returned to Bai Hua and Long Wei’s side amidst the shock and the painful cry of Sha Lou, whose face was half-burned and whose body was now being consud by fire.
Sha Vejun rushed to stop further damage while the elders and guards also tried to extinguish the fire that was burning Sha Lou’s body and soul.
"We can’t stop it!"
"It keeps burning!"
One of the elders used his Qi to force the fire out of Sha Lou’s body, but in the process, he was also caught in the flas, which began to spread to his own body.
"AHHHH! Save !" he yelled as another cry filled the air.
Long Wei looked on with an amused smile while Bai Hua had a resolute expression on her face. Ru Feng didn’t react; her expression was as cold as Xuan’s.
All the remaining people—from the Ru family to Zhao Zen Wu’s side and even any passerby—had fear gripping their hearts.
"Boom!"
"You bastard!"
A deafening roar echoed.
"What you’ve done to my son, AAAAAAAHHHH!" Sha Vejun’s roar stunned everyone present.
His cultivation was now rising toward the great perfection, the rage covering his aura utterly unfathomable. He used everything at his disposal to stop the fire, but he could only watch as Sha Lou’s entire body turned into ashes.
Like a madman, he turned to look at Xuan. "I, Sha Vejun, swear to the heavens that I won’t kill you. I’ll capture you and make you watch as I impregnate your woman before your very eyes, and you’ll watch helplessly."
"I just lost my son, but you’ll lose your existence." His cultivation burst as he entered the first stage of the Earth Master Realm. Still, Xuan wasn’t affected by his cultivation.
Xuan sighed but his tone was cold. "Your son also had the sa thoughts, so I gave him a cruel death. But your death will be even more cruel than his."
Xuan’s cultivation, which was still at the Seventh Stage of the Spirit Vein Realm, remained the sa. But he was confident in surviving this brutal battle against Sha Vejun.
"Young lord, let join the fight with you." Zhao Zen Wu volunteered.
In terms of cultivation, he was the second-strongest person there, just after Sha Vejun. But he wasn’t confident in winning against Sha Vejun, who was now a step ahead of him.
Xuan didn’t deny his help. Instead, he looked at the terrified Ru family and the passersby, including the elders and guards of the Sha family.
"Those who are unrelated, those who wish to live..." his voice bood, chilling everyone to the bone. "Those who don’t want to die a aningless death... you can back off. As for those who stay..."
A heavy pressure, sothing not from his cultivation but sothing only beasts could possess, descended upon the entire city.
"...You will die today!"
