"Today, I sever your arm, do you submit?"
Xu Fan stood coldly in front of Harden Marquis. Despite only being in the Entering Dao realm, there was an unparalleled aura of dominance about him.
Harden Marquis said nothing, gritting his teeth, his face ashen with defeat.
Slash!
Xu Fan's longsword swept down, and Harden Marquis's arm flew off amidst a splatter of blood that soaked the ground. Harden Marquis let out a muffled groan of pain, and his gaze at Xu Fan was filled with deep-seated fear rather than the previous vicious contempt.
"Get lost!"
With an angry shout from Xu Fan, Harden Marquis scrambled from the ground, casting a long, heavy glance at the great hall of the Huang family before staggering away with heavy steps.
When he ca, Harden Marquis was arrogant and domineering. As he left, he was alone, humiliated and in a wretched state.
Soon, the pitiful silhouette of Harden Marquis vanished from everyone's sight. Yet, the crowd still didn't dare to breathe a sigh of relief; as long as Xu Fan remained, they dared not relax even for a mont.
Besides, the events of today were a trendous shock to everyone!
Xu Fan, in the Entering Dao Realm, had slaughtered gods and demons alike, and ti after ti, he'd turned peril into safety. In the end, he trampled over the Marquis and wielded his longsword, unmatched.
No one anticipated such an outco.
At this mont, Xu Fan turned his head and cast a cold glance at Huang Wandi, saying nothing more, then addressed the person referred to as the "old immortal," "Master, let's go."
The old immortal also glanced at Huang Wandi and then laughed heartily a few tis before turning and leaving with Xu Fan and Xia Xiaodie.
Only after they completely vanished from everyone's sight did the crowd break out into an uproar.
So said Xu Fan's future was limitless, while others noted his brilliance, but no one dared to underestimate him any longer.
However, Huang Wandi's face had turned a shade of iron blue at this mont.
The glance Xu Fan and the old immortal exchanged before leaving made Huang Wandi perfectly aware of its aning.
Xu Fan's eyes were filled with intense murder intent. As he had said, if he left the Huang family's great hall alive today, he would surely destroy the Huang family in the future!
The old immortal's eyes, on the other hand, were full of disdain.
"Benefactor Huang, this humble monk has other matters to attend to, so I must take my leave!" said the elderly monk, clasping his hands in a ceremonious goodbye and leaving with a muddled young monk.
"Hmph!" Arthur snorted coldly and left in strides with Avril.
Following their lead, the crowd rose and also took their leave one after another.
With Xu Fan gone, the Huang family's face was utterly lost, suffering heavy losses. There was no need for this so-called World Cultivator Conference to continue.
In a short while, the once bustling royal hall was left with Huang Wandi alone.
At this mont, Huang Wandi's face was even darker.
...
At the airport, Xu Fan and the old immortal walked side by side.
The old immortal's face was full of relief, as though he had just let go of a long-held burden, and he seed incredibly relaxed.
"Boy, you must have really wanted to kill that Harden Marquis, so why did you just cut off his arm in the end?"
Xu Fan rolled his eyes at the old immortal, "If I really killed him, could we have gotten out of there? Besides, if you wanted to kill him, with your temper, you'd have done it long ago; why go through all that trouble?"
The old immortal laughed heartily, "I didn't expect that the foolish boy of the past could be so smart in critical monts. That Harden Marquis indeed cannot be killed."
"Are there still strong allies?"
The old immortal nodded, "Yes, and not just one! But as long as we don't overstep, they won't dare to act."
"The waters with the Huang family are much deeper than you imagine!"
Xu Fan was not surprised. As a hidden world family, the Huang family naturally couldn't possess only this strength. As allies of the Dark Forces, if they had only this strength, wouldn't it be more convenient for the Dark Forces to swallow them whole?
However, the silence of the several strong figures behind them left Xu Fan a little surprised.
"Why don't those people dare to act?"
The old immortal smiled at Xu Fan, "Those old immortals have long since been confird dead. To show up now in front of the world cultivators would render all their previous arrangents aningless, wouldn't it?"
"Moreover, given the current complex global situation, in the eyes of those old immortals, the life or death of so Vajra Realm figures is not worth their attention. They are concerned with higher-level gas."
Xu Fan yawned, uninterested in such matters.
"However, you boy are in for a bit of fun. You've thoroughly offended the Huang family and the Dark Forces, and even among the world cultivators, there are those who look down on you. In the future, if you're ever crushed suddenly by a strong figure while walking, don't bla for not warning you."
Xu Fan yawned again. Surely there weren't so many strong figures for him to encounter, and in a few years, his own strength would surely have undergone a qualitative leap; it was hardly likely that he could be so easily crushed. The old immortal seed to be underestimating him too much.
"Old guy, what's the story between you and the Huang family? Why do I feel like you have a sowhat unusual relationship with them?"
Compared to those other matters, Xu Fan was evidently more interested in the old immortal's past.
Unexpectedly, the old immortal glared, unwilling to share even a snippet of his past with Xu Fan.
Behind him, Qu Ying laughed, "Has the old guy not co to terms with it? What's there you can't tell your disciple?"
The old immortal sighed, then also laughed. "What's there to take to heart at this age? Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you. Besides, it'll give you so insight into the dostic situation."
Xu Fan's eyes lit up, eagerly awaiting the old immortal's story.
It's not that Xu Fan was nosy, but he actually knew very little about the old immortal's past, and given that the old immortal never ntioned it in ordinary tis, Xu Fan wouldn't let this rare opportunity slip by.
"Back when I was young, wandering the Jianghu, I fell in love with a woman who was essentially your master's wife. I, your master, your godmother, and Senior Liu all t in the Jianghu and went through countless hardships. Eventually, I ca together with your master's wife."
"However, your master's wife was the daughter of the Huang family and exceptionally gifted. The Huang family pinned all their hopes on her, naturally opposing our relationship."
"Later, your master's wife was tricked back to the Huang family and was placed under house arrest. I forced my way into the Huang family, made it to the backyard, but was outnumbered and near death. Your master's wife shielded from a fatal strike and saved ."
At this point, the old immortal sighed, "That particular strike landed imperfectly, precisely piercing through your master's wife's Dantian, crippling her Cultivation Level. As a result, the Huang family's attitude changed."
