Who is Taoist Cang Kun? What status does he hold? He is the Grand Island Master of Canglan Island, a peak expert of the Second Level Late Stage Beast!
Even though he was once pursued by the previous ancestor of Cloud Dragon Mountain, a Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm expert, through such an experience of being personally hunted by a Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm expert, yet surviving without a scratch,
the influence and intimidation he exerts within hundreds of miles around can only be described as unshakable.
After all, how many people can boast such prowess? Surviving even when personally attacked by a Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm expert?
One must understand, that Taoist Cang Kun has not yet reached the level comparable to a Third-Level Demonic Beast.
Even so, all the major figures and giants of every faction have to greet him deferentially with a "Island Master Cang Kun" or even "Senior Cang Kun" upon eting him; but now?
But now, who does Zhou Long think he is? Forget him; even his master, the current Sect Master of Cloud Dragon Mountain, Blackwind, wouldn't dare be so arrogant in front of Taoist Cang Kun! Let alone point his nose and threaten him?
This is simply courting death!
Silence! A deathly silence!
Then ca the sound of heavy breathing, one after another. Not to ntion the slightly weaker Lau Pang, who was already scared pale; even Qin Liefeng, reputed to be a top master second only to the peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer, was now with a racing heart and a flustered gaze.
There's no helping it; the higher one rises, the clearer and better one understands the terror and fearso combat power and strength of Taoist Cang Kun of Canglan Island.
He just couldn't fathom why Taoist Cang Kun would appear here. Could it be that he really is the backing of that Chen, the Master of Enlightened Deity Cave?
At the thought of this, Qin Liefeng felt as if he had swallowed a fly, utterly uncomfortable! His face turned extrely dark and ugly.
If he had known earlier that this matter would sohow involve Taoist Cang Kun, how could he have impulsively gotten into such inexplicable trouble?
To speak practically, even if there were three of him, Qin Liefeng, combined, they still probably wouldn't stand as opponents!
In such a scenario, standing out so recklessly was nothing short of courting death?
So in that instant, the atmosphere beca quite tense. Almost everyone looked at Zhou Long with eyes full of disdain, and at Taoist Cang Kun with imnse reverence.
Evidently, it's the power of a stronger fist that rules all. Just Taoist Cang Kun alone had the Red Lion Cave, Cloud Dragon Mountain's allied army intimidated into utter silence. Still as a cicada in winter.
"Hehe."
It wasn't Lau Pang's reaction that Taoist Cang Kun paid attention to, but he instead cast a faint smile and looked indifferently at Zhou Long, whose face was stern yet internally fragile. In his eyes, cold substances seed to interlace and flicker.
"Even that guy Blackwind wouldn't dare speak to like this. You boy, however, are quite sothing; far braver than your master." Taoist Cang Kun's crystalline long beard swayed as his voice revealed a hint of sarcasm and coldness.
Given his status, he wasn't interested in bullying the small; only, the fellow before him seed to overestimate himself.
That old thing of Cloud Dragon Mountain? So what if back in the day, he was chased? What does it matter?
Though he hadn't yet reached the Third-Level Demonic Beast, it might be disrespectful to say that if he did soday christen into the Third-Level Demonic Beast, that old thing from Cloud Dragon Mountain would be no different from a pig or a dog in his hands.
"Cang, Island Master Cang Kun, Zhou, Zhou Long was sowhat out of control emotionally, misspoke. Please, Island Master Cang Kun, for the sake of Cloud Dragon Mountain, forgive him this once, let bygones be bygones," Lau Pang said with trembling tones.
Although their statuses were quite remarkable, if Zhou Long did end up causing disgrace on their behalf, they too couldn't shirk responsibility when back at the sect. At the very least, Sect Master Blackwind would certainly bring them trouble.
"Elder Lau, I, I..."
Previously, Zhou Long naively thought himself to be the only closed-door disciple of Sect Master Blackwind of Cloud Dragon Mountain, having such a massive backer, figured that even if the other was an illustrious figure like Taoist Cang Kun of Canglan Island, he would still surely give face to Cloud Dragon Mountain and dare not harm Zhou Long!
But now?
But now, setting aside the surrounding interested glances akin to seeing a fool, even the reaction of Elder Lau Pang, and as his gaze t with that indifferent, cold look, his whole body felt as if bitten by a venomous snake, leaving his limbs cold.
Though he appeared sowhat foolish, he wasn't foolish to an extre degree.
In the current predicant, there was no way he couldn't see it—that the kind of formidable and ruthless character like Taoist Cang Kun wasn't soone to be threatened or provoked by re words from Zhou Long.
The thought cooled Zhou Long's back, sending shivers down his limbs.
"S-sorry, Island Master Cang Kun, I misspoke earlier. I sincerely apologize now." As the saying goes, those who recognize the tis are wise. Though Zhou Long was accustod to being arrogant, now he understood clearly who he could provoke and who he could not.
Obviously, anyone with a bit of brains would realize that the Grand Island Master of Canglan Island, Taoist Cang Kun, was an existence he absolutely could not afford to antagonize.
Consequently, Zhou Long decided to 'recognize the tis' and be wise. He lowered his head, bowing deeply as he apologized to Taoist Cang Kun.
"Sorry?" Upon hearing this, Taoist Cang Kun's originally indifferent pupils contracted coldly, a faintly sinister color erging in his gaze as he slowly responded, "Do you think today's events can be settled with just a single apology?"
"No way! Enlightened Deity Cave isn't a place you can co and go as you please." The Eight Great Iron Guards again surrounded them, and Iron Three, face dripping with blood, stared coldly at Qin Liefeng.
"Then what do you want?" Qin Liefeng heard the words, his pupils shrinking directly as a burst of coldness suddenly surged, glaring at the Eight Great Iron Guards. His words were uncompromising and icy cold, "Do you think I couldn't crush you all here and now?"
Upon hearing this, the Eight Great Iron Guards turned pale, feeling a sense of stifled fury, a deep humiliation.
No matter what, their opponent's strength was truly stronger than all eight of them combined. Even if they attacked together now, they wouldn't be Qin Liefeng's match. Saying more would be pointless, wouldn't it?
"Do you also believe I could crush you here?" At that mont, Taoist Cang Kun spoke expressionlessly, causing Qin Liefeng and the others' faces to change abruptly.
"Island Master Cang Kun, what do you an by this? We've always respected each other's boundaries," Qin Liefeng said, his face full of caution.
"Boundaries respected? It's comndable you dare say such words. You ca with so many people today, don't tell it was just to sightsee?" Taoist Cang Kun replied coldly, his gaze sweeping over the allied forces behind Qin Liefeng.
"Island Master Cang Kun, we're here rely to attack Enlightened Deity Cave. You, being the Grand Island Master of Canglan Island, of such high status—there's no need to involve yourself in such trivial matters?" Said Red Lion Daoist, walking over unemotionally.
Although it seed that Taoist Cang Kun wanted to stand up for Enlightened Deity Cave, as long as words were left unsaid, they had leverage. No matter how mighty Taoist Cang Kun was, he was only the Grand Island Master with no direct connection to Enlightened Deity Cave.
"And what if I told you that I, Cang Kun, am also part of Enlightened Deity Cave?" As Taoist Cang Kun spoke those earth-shattering words, Qin Liefeng, Red Lion Daoist, Lau Pang, and the others froze, their expressions becoming frantic.
No choice, who was Taoist Cang Kun? The Grand Island Master of Canglan Island, the peak expert of Second Level Late Stage Beast!
Within hundreds of miles and even the entire North Side Area of Eagle Gorge, besides those esteed Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm experts, who dared posture before Taoist Cang Kun? Who dared claim prowess before Taoist Cang Kun!?
But now? But now, this fearso figure standing below the Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm or even the Realm of Third-Level Demonic Beast dared to say he was part of Enlightened Deity Cave!?
How was this possible!?
Before, their plans to attack Enlightened Deity Cave—what did they an now? Didn't they already draw the line and establish deep enmity with Taoist Cang Kun!?
"S-sorry, we're blind to the obvious and insulted your esteed cavern. We'll leave imdiately..." Qin Liefeng said without hesitation.
Not just him, even though Red Lion Daoist had ulterior motives, he too now felt the urge to retreat.
No choice, Taoist Cang Kun of Canglan Island was such a formidable presence. If he decided to protect Enlightened Deity Cave firmly, not just those present—even doubling their numbers wouldn't change the situation.
Rember, Canglan Island wasn't only governed by Grand Island Master Cang Kun; there was also Second Island Master Blue Whale Elder.
Though Blue Whale Elder wasn't as formidable or invincible as Taoist Cang Kun, he had once chased Sect Master Blackwind of Cloud Dragon Mountain to desperation. Most importantly, Blue Whale Elder followed Taoist Cang Kun's commands.
In such a scenario, if both Taoist Cang Kun and Blue Whale Elder were involved, not just them—even ordinary Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm experts would struggle.
"Leaving? Did I say you could leave?" Just when they prepared a panicked retreat, Taoist Cang Kun said casually, shocking everyone present, their faces shifting to panic.
"Island Master Cang Kun, this is just a misunderstanding. We didn't know Enlightened Deity Cave was associated with you...Can't we leave now?" Qin Liefeng said cautiously, full of dread as he looked at Taoist Cang Kun.
Not only him, even Red Lion Daoist and the others beside him, their expressions turned anxious and grim.
As the saying goes, don't look at the monk but the Buddha; even if Taoist Cang Kun was formidable—what of it?
Among those present here, how many didn't have powerful backers?
