Guang Changlin was one of Wu Tian’s friends from his first foray into the Immortal Emperor Realm. He had a decent na, but he was bald.
Indeed, he was a bald man with a round waist, a thick back, a wide face, and a square mouth—there was nothing handso about him at all.
He was, however, fond of beautiful won and claid he would work hard to marry one to improve his family’s looks.
And he truly was a god of wealth. Though proud by nature, he was witty and humorous. A gentleman who loved wealth, he obtained it through his own "Way"—which was to say, by deception. Yet, when he encountered the poor and destitute, Guang was generous, soft-hearted, and upright, and he detested villains.
Wu Tian now rembered: this Mount and Sea Slash was Guang the Baldy’s own martial arts technique.
What Wu Tian never expected was that the descendants of the baldy who had once been despised by everyone in Xiuyuan Country were now City Lords.
i Xinlan was stunned. It was true. Every year during the ancestral worship, they had to pay homage to the Guang Family’s ancestor, Guang Changlin.
Whether in statues or paintings, Guang Changlin was always bald.
But who would dare call him a bald man?
"Excellent!" i Xinlan laughed in fury. "Back then, Guang Changlin and the founding king were sworn brothers. Therefore, the position of City Lord is hereditary. His appearance is not for you to comnt on. It seems you’re determined to die."
"Wait," Guang Lin said, stepping forward as a thought occurred to him. "Auntie, only our own family has ever known Ancestor Changlin’s true appearance. Whether in statues or paintings, they were always ant for our eyes only. How does he know this? Could he have so connection to our Guang Family? What’s more, he knows our family’s inherited martial arts technique, the Mount and Sea Slash. No matter how you look at it, we can’t act rashly! What if he is the descendant of an ancestor’s old friend? What should we do then?"
"This..." Hearing this, i Xinlan began to feel conflicted.
"Mother, what are you waiting for? Kill him!" Guang Ming shouted when he saw his mother waver. "So what if he’s the descendant of an old friend? He just tried to kill ! Every one of his moves was lethal, aid right at my vitals. He wants dead! He wants you to lose !"
Wu Tian was speechless.
So were the surrounding commoners.
That wasn’t what happened at all.
Lethal moves? Wu Tian had only made a single move against Guang Ming. This man’s ability to spout nonsense with a straight face was staggering. In broad daylight, under a clear sky, and in front of so many people, Guang Ming was shalessly spouting lies.
Guang Lin was furious. "Guang Ming, you..."
Guang Ming looked at i Xinlan. "Mother, don’t you believe ?"
"I do! I believe you!" i Xinlan hurriedly responded.
Watching from the side, Wu Tian sneered. "Guang Changlin had no cultivation talent, but he was a man of integrity, and his wife was virtuous. Why has each generation of his descendants been worse than the last? I advise you not to provoke again, or you will face the consequences."
This was originally a grudge between Wu Tian and the Heavenly Sword Sect, but now the City Lord’s Mansion had involved itself. Wu Tian was not a rciful person. He might have initially felt so goodwill for the sake of an old friend’s descendants, but once he ford a negative impression of soone, that feeling was irrevocable.
With a flip of his hand, the Vanquishing Heaven Seal appeared in his palm. A vast and overwhelming aura emanated from the seal.
His black hair whipped in the wind, his eyes radiating supre confidence. At this mont, Wu Tian seed like a Divine King, shining between heaven and earth, vying with the cosmos and outshining the sun and moon. He was so brilliant that none dared to look at him directly.
The aura of the Vanquishing Heaven Seal suppressed the entire space, causing i Xinlan’s face to turn pale. She had never felt such an aura, not even from her husband, the current City Lord.
She was astonished. How could an unknown person be so powerful?
Guang Ming was so shaken his legs trembled. He couldn’t believe Wu Tian possessed such strength. Then, his eyes fixed on the Vanquishing Heaven Seal in Wu Tian’s hand. His calmness must be due to that Supre Treasure alone! Avarice instantly filled Guang Ming’s eyes.
He knew that ever since he was a child, his mother would get him anything he wanted.
He bellowed, "Mother, that seal in his hand looks good! I... I want to take a look at it!"
When a son makes a request, his mother must fulfill it. That is what a good parent does, i Xinlan believed.
She looked at Wu Tian and said, "I won’t kill you. I just want to borrow the seal in your hand for a mont."
Wu Tian laughed. "Who’d believe that? You’d ’borrow’ it and never return it. If you’re going to rob , just say so! Why be so hypocritical?"
i Xinlan snorted. "I said, I am *borrowing* it!"
"You will die," Wu Tian said. It was an obvious refusal.
"Mother, I want it!" Guang Ming whined, on the verge of tears.
"Don’t worry. Mother will definitely get you what you like." After giving her son a doting glance, i Xinlan turned back to Wu Tian. Her expression went cold, and her killing intent erupted without reservation as she struck like lightning.
i Xinlan did not co from so prominent family. Her most powerful martial arts technique was also the Mount and Sea Slash. With a single slash, a brilliant golden blade of light shot out, viciously chopping toward Wu Tian.
"Courting death." Wu Tian’s eyes turned cold. Anyone who tries to kill must be prepared to be killed. He would not show rcy just because they were related to an old acquaintance.
Facing i Xinlan’s attack, Wu Tian simply brought the Vanquishing Heaven Seal smashing down.
The Vanquishing Heaven Seal was legendary for being rciless. It specialized in smashing foreheads, leaving its victims in a grueso state. Several of the figures who were granted Divine Enthronent after being killed by Guang Chengzi had died in this very way.
When unleashed, the Vanquishing Heaven Seal was incomparably ferocious, its power unstoppable. Under its might, the golden blade of light was utterly annihilated.
"What kind of Supre Treasure is that?"
"The Supre Treasures we know of are ranked by the Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang tiers. This treasure... it seems to be above the Heaven-tier!"
"Is he actually going to kill i Xinlan?"
The crowd exclaid in shock. The power of the Vanquishing Heaven Seal was far beyond their expectations.
"Hmph, he dares kill my mother? Pah! I don’t believe it." Guang Ming glared venomously at Wu Tian, his eyes burning with jealousy. How could soone so worthless possess a Supre Treasure?
In the eyes of the crowd, Wu Tian wouldn’t dare deliver a killing blow to i Xinlan.
But they were all wrong. Wu Tian brought the Vanquishing Heaven Seal crashing down without hesitation.
With a devastating impact, it smashed directly onto i Xinlan’s forehead.
"AH!"
i Xinlan let out a horrific scream. She couldn’t believe he actually dared to kill her. Under the seal’s pressure, her body was flattened into a at patty, utterly and completely dead.
"You... how dare you kill my mother?" Guang Ming shrieked in disbelief, his eyes filled with pure terror as he stared at Wu Tian.
Wu Tian looked at Guang Ming and said, "Don’t worry about missing your mother. You’re about to go join her."
"No, I don’t want to join her! I don’t want to die with her!" Guang Ming was terrified, stumbling backward step by step.
Just then, a calm yet resonant voice rang out. "Could you do this old man a favor?"
