High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 199 - 176: Su Mu’s Terrifying Clout, Lin Family Ance

To reverse slash a Martial Arts Grandmaster with a single palm strike while being at the level of a Fifth Level Martial Artist, crossing two major realms, is truly an astonishing feat.

Silence prevailed.

For a mont, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence, with only the sound of autumn winds stirring the waters of Spring Water Lake.

Soon, several terrifying waves of qi and blood surged into the sky, the Martial Arts Grandmasters hidden within the Lin Family couldn’t sit still anymore. First, Lin Peng was beheaded by Su Mu on the martial arts arena, and now a Grandmaster had his arm severed.

If they could not crush Su Mu, what face would the Lin Family have left?!

"Arrogant traitor, how dare you resist!"

Many terrifying qi and blood essences ford into one Martial Arts Golden Body after another, attacking a single Fifth Level Martial Artist on Spring Water Lake. Such a scene, if told, would be unbelievable.

The target of multiple Grandmasters’ attacks was rely a Fifth Level Martial Artist!

Yet, this astonishing scene unfolded before everyone’s eyes.

"Zhao ng, you stand back."

Li Yue grit his teeth, unleashing all his qi and blood, forming a Martial Arts Golden Body. He had to do sothing, he could not stand and watch Su Mu just die like that.

"Are you trying to make an enemy of the Lin Family?!"

A roar of anger erupted, causing Li Yue’s heart to tremble.

At this mont, another deep, iron-blooded voice filled with murderous intent rang out, as a tall and thin but fierce-looking figure arrived, "Su Mu is a captain of the Southern War Zone, I want to see who in the Lin Family dares to touch him."

The person was none other than Hong Lie from the Southern War Zone.

For a mont, the Martial Arts Grandmasters of the Lin Family hesitated, but after exchanging a glance, they made the decision, intent on killing Su Mu. They did not believe that the Southern War Zone would completely fall out with the Lin Family.

It’s just one Su Mu, after all. As long as the Lin Family softens up afterward and pays a price, it would suffice.

"We must kill Su Mu!"

Realizing the Lin Family’s determination, Hong Lie was furious, instantly forming a Martial Arts Golden Body. He ca rushing, without bringing any other personnel from the war zone.

Never did Hong Lie expect the Lin Family to be so shaless as to attack a younger generation mber.

At this mont, a figure anxiously descended from Spring Water Building, Tantai Yan shouted towards a hesitating figure in the distance.

"Third Grandpa... Su Mu saved , I beg you, save Su Mu!"

Upon hearing this, the distant hesitant figure’s eyes brightened. He was just worried about finding an excuse to save Su Mu, considering Su Mu’s high martial arts potential. Even if he wasn’t as good as Huangfu Tian, he was still an outstanding talent among the new generation of martial artists.

Win over such a genius martial artist for the family, undoubtedly a great thing for the Tantai Family.

Imdiately, the one Tantai Yan called Third Grandpa also suddenly released a Martial Arts Golden Body. He spoke in a deep voice.

"Su Mu saved the little girl, he’s a distinguished guest of the Tantai Family."

He stepped forward, standing before the two Lin Family Martial Arts Grandmasters.

On the ninth floor of Spring Water Building, Huangfu Feng also spoke.

"Su Mu holds the token of the Huangfu Family, he is also a distinguished guest of the Huangfu Family."

Hearing this, the Guardian of the Huangfu Family subtly smiled, imdiately forming another Martial Arts Golden Body. He stepped forward, standing beside the Tantai Family mber.

"Su Mu saved my two sisters of the Sikong River..." Sikong River’s words were interrupted.

Imdiately, the Guardian of the Sikong Family understood, and without holding back, released strong qi and blood, conjuring yet another terrifying Martial Arts Golden Body on the scene.

Li Yue, Hong Lie, Tantai Family, Huangfu Family, Sikong Family, five Martial Arts Grandmasters facing the Lin Family, five-on-five!

Hiss!

At this mont, ten Martial Arts Grandmasters manifested their Martial Arts Golden Bodies. In the noon sunlight, like ten giant golden figures towering over Spring Water Lake, under the overwhelming pressure, the new generation talents on the scene were filled with a sense of suffocation, their breathing becoming extrely difficult.

Even though they ca from various major forces, few of them had ever seen such a grand scene.

"Su Mu is also a mber of the Guangshen Province Martial Arts Association, he is the chief of the three cities: Shenjiang, Qianhai, and Gaoshan, and an honorary mber of our provincial association."

Another elder stepped forward with big strides, it was the President of the Guangshen Province Martial Arts Association, Zhong Guoping.

Thus, the eleventh Martial Arts Golden Body descended.

For a mont, the expressions of the Lin Family mbers turned extraordinarily grim, the Southern War Zone, Provincial Martial Arts Association, Tantai Family, Huangfu Family, Sikong Family.

Two major official forces combined with three major Martial Arts Families, especially now that the Governor of South China also hails from the Sikong Family.

Such a luxurious lineup just to save one Fifth Level Martial Artist!

In an instant, the Lin Family mbers suddenly realized that this Su Mu was not a small figure they could easily manipulate, possessing such terrifying energy and connections.

There was no information about this aspect in their previous investigation of Su Mu.

Now, to move against Su Mu would be to beco enemies with five major forces, a heavy price the Lin Family neither wanted nor could afford to bear.

"Su Mu killed my Lin Family’s Celestial Pride, he must pay the price." A Lin Family Grandmaster gritted out, yet the tone lacked the forr firmness.

"Humph, does your Lin Family really have the face to ntion this? On the day of the challenge invitation, I contacted your Lin Family, explaining that Su Mu was on a secret mission, unable to step away, and yet, how did your Lin Family react?"

"A battle of martial arts, a contest of talents, weapons are blind, there’s no blaming fate for lack of strength!" Hong Lie uttered coldly.

Although Hong Lie didn’t spell it all out, how could the Lin Family Grandmasters present not understand his implication? For a mont, they were speechless, realizing that if they had canceled the challenge, today’s tragedy could indeed have been avoided.

"Could it be that my Peng’er died in vain today?" A man bemoaned, eyes almost shooting fire as he glared at Su Mu, this person was none other than the Elder Lin who was the first to act, and got his palm severed by Su Mu.

"Lin Peng died on the martial arts arena. You want Su Mu to pay, revenge is possible, but limited to the new generation martial artists below the Grandmaster Realm."

"If a Martial Arts Grandmaster wants to use their realm to oppress the people of our Southern War Zone, I refuse." Hong Lie snorted coldly, his attitude extrely firm.

As soon as he spoke, the Lin Family’s Grandmasters and others present fell silent.

They all looked at the prominent figure on the Martial Arts Arena by Spring Water Lake, even when the Lin Family’s Grandmaster had made a move, his calm deanor remained unshaken.

Su Mu’s astonishing performance was fully witnessed by them.

With one slash, he killed Lin Peng, who had just stepped into the Grandmaster Realm.

With the second slash, he severed the right arm of the Martial Arts Golden Body conjured by the Lin Family’s Grandmaster, then cut off the Grandmaster’s right palm.

Such terrifying achievents were in front of them, and anyone below the realm of a Lin Family Grandmaster wanting to attack Su Mu would be queueing up for death.

However, the Lin Family’s Grandmasters were still sowhat unwilling, having already acted, they needed a way to step down, but Hong Lie’s attitude was too unyielding, making the atmosphere on the scene extrely heavy.

"Enough, it was rely a lack of skill. Do you still think today’s matter isn’t shaful enough?!"

"Lin Hanshan, as a dignified Martial Arts Grandmaster, you attacked a junior. Not only have you disgraced the title of Grandmaster, but you’ve also dishonored the na of a Martial Arts Family. Have you forgotten why the Martial Arts Family ca into being? You are hereby relieved of all duties in the Lin Family and sentenced to guard the Southern Beast Cave for ten years. Do you have any objections?"

An ancient voice rang out; upon hearing this voice, the Lin Family mbers imdiately trembled, showing reverence as they dispersed their Martial Arts Golden Body.

Upon hearing this voice, others present also dissolved their Golden Bodies, their expressions becoming extrely grave.

Lin Hanshan took a deep look at Su Mu and then responded.

"Hanshan has no objections, I obey the ancestor’s decree."

"The other four are to have their stipends cut for three years. Lin Shan, as the current Patriarch of the Lin Family, is this how you lead? You are to ditate in seclusion for a year, during which Lin Wu will take over all family affairs."

"Yes, ancestor."

The Lin Family Ancestor, a bona fide Martial Arts Great Grandmaster, once he spoke, there was no room for dispute, imdiately relieving Lin Hanshan of all duties, sentencing him to guard the Beast Cave for ten years.

Even the current Patriarch of the Lin Family was punished to ditate in seclusion for a year, stripped of the Patriarch title, and had their stipend cut for three years as well.

"It’s been my negligence all these years; the Lin Family will not be your enemy, Su Mu."

"Little friend Su Mu, I’ll be waiting for you in the bamboo grove; let’s have a chat."

The ancient voice disappeared; everyone exhaled a breath of relief, as many on the scene were shocked to the core, only coming back to their senses after several seconds.

"Was that voice just now the Lin Family Ancestor?"

"That’s right, it was indeed the Lin Family Ancestor, a true Martial Arts Great Grandmaster, many generations above Lord Li Lang in seniority."

"Remarkable, indeed a Martial Arts Great Grandmaster; such magnanimity is truly extraordinary."

Who would’ve thought that the battle between Su Mu and Lin Peng not only involved eleven Martial Arts Grandmasters but also alard the Lin Family Ancestor, a Martial Arts Great Grandmaster!

Yet, even after Su Mu killed Lin Peng on the spot, he was not troubled by the Lin Family Ancestor. Instead, the Ancestor punished five present Martial Arts Grandmasters and even invited Su Mu for a private eting, addressing Su Mu as a "little friend"!

With the Lin Family Ancestor stepping in, things reached a tipping point; the general situation was set.

A mber of the Lin Family ca on stage, took away Lin Peng’s body, and left.

Su Mu leaped away from Spring Water Lake, and Tantai Yan, overwheld with excitent, rushed up to him.

"Su Mu... just now, just now I was scared to death, but in any case, it turned out great!"

"Thanks a lot."

Su Mu ruffled the hair of the little girl Tantai Yan.

"Senior Brother, who is she?"

"Tantai Yan, my dear friend." Upon hearing the term "dear friend" from Su Mu, Tantai Yan felt a sense of joy and then curiously looked at Zhao ng, having a good impression of her since she brought the sword at the critical mont.

"She is my Little Junior Sister, Zhao ng."

"Su Mu, you good lad, your growth speed has far exceeded my expectations; next ti we et, you might completely surpass ." Li Yue exclaid emotionally.

"Su Mu, you did well this ti. This is your Captain’s insignia; when you return to the War Zone, I’ll hold a special commissioning ceremony for you." Hong Lie stepped forward and patted Su Mu’s shoulder; Zhong Guoping and several Guardians also stepped up.

Seeing Hong Lie again, Zhong Guoping couldn’t hold back, glaring fiercely at him. Hong Lie, knowing he was at fault, rely laughed off, pretending not to notice.

"Great grace requires no thanks. For the kindness of the Grandmasters saving today, I, Su Mu, will forever rember it in my heart!" Su Mu solemnly declared.

"A hero erges among the young; to reverse slash a Grandmaster at the realm of a Fifth Level Martial Artist is truly a Sword Dao genius, indeed extraordinary as One-Slash Asura." An elder from the Tantai Family stroked his beard, his eyes full of favor.

Were it not for Su Mu being from the Southern War Zone, he might have tried to recruit Su Mu into the Tantai Family on the spot.

"After today’s battle, your na, One-Slash Asura Su Mu, will surely resonate throughout South China. Seventh sister indeed has a keen eye, much better than mine." Huangfu Feng said with a smile.

"Su Mu, if you have ti in the future, my Huangfu Family will always welco you."

"My Sikong Family will always welco you too."

"And my Tantai Family as well."

At Spring Water Lake, the autumn wind still blew, but all the green leaves and the Moonlight Lotus had withered, cut down by the aftermath of Su Mu’s Great Success Blade Montum.

The battle of the Celestial Pride had concluded, but the massive sensation it sparked had just begun. The geniuses present were all talking excitedly, feeling honored to have witnessed this battle, to witness a true Celestial Pride.

...

"Su Mu, my na is Lin Wu, the ancestor is waiting for you in the bamboo grove."

"Please co with ." A Lin Family person with a smile, exuding a scholarly air, had been waiting for a long ti.
