Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character Chapter 199: Apologies and Intimidation

Bang!

On the broad square outside the Fla Alliance manor, a violent shockwave swept across the area, drawing everyone's attention to the place where two figures clashed. Within the furious blast of energy, a dark figure was suddenly flung backward, stumbling several tis before finally steadying himself.

Swoosh!

All eyes focused on this figure, and a collective gasp spread through the crowd—it was Tian Zhen! His impenetrable golden shield had been shattered.

The crowd stared in shock at Tian Zhen's disheveled figure. His once-pristine shield was now broken, and his clothes were torn, leaving him looking battered and humiliated.

Amid the dust and chaos, a figure erged—a cold, fearso presence cloaked in dark energy. It was Shadow Demon, his body radiating a dark, nacing aura like a demonic god.

With icy detachnt, Shadow Demon fixed his gaze on the defeated Tian Zhen. "Anyone who dares threaten my Senior Brother dies," he declared coldly.

"What arrogance!"

Tian Zhen's anger flared, but the initial look of disdain in his eyes gave way to one of wariness. He now fully realized that this Shadow Demon was as formidable as any of the other three ruling powers of the Northwestern Region.

"Who is this Lin Langtian?" Tian Zhen thought bitterly. "Not only does he wield such astounding strength, but he's also got followers like this!"

The thought of retreating crossed Tian Zhen's mind. Shadow Demon's power was only part of it—Lin Langtian and the entire Fla Alliance were still standing nearby, watching him closely. Despite his ferocity, Tian Zhen was no fool; he knew that if he made one wrong move, he could end up the laughingstock of the entire Northwestern Region.

"Lin Langtian," Tian Zhen said, the anger slowly leaving his face. "It seems I was too hasty earlier. I'll admit, I made a mistake. The ancient key should remain in your possession." His gaze flickered, a tight smile appearing as he prepared to leave.

But just as he took a step back, a figure appeared, blocking his path. It was Shadow Demon.

"Lin Langtian!" Tian Zhen's face darkened. "Are you really going to force this into an all-out fight?"

"Force a fight?" Lin Langtian sneered. "If you think you can settle this with just a few words, Violent Wolf Tian Zhen, you must think rather lowly of and the Fla Alliance."

Tian Zhen froze. In his mind, sparing Lin Langtian was already a huge concession. But seeing Shadow Demon's icy gaze, he realized that if he tried to battle the entire Fla Alliance here, he might die without even breaking their defenses.

A hint of sha crept over Tian Zhen's face, and with a heavy sigh, he pulled a pouch from his robes and tossed it toward Lin Langtian. "Inside this bag," he grumbled, "you'll find fifty Nirvana-level demon crystals, twenty One-Refinent Nirvana demon crystals, and three Two-Refinent Nirvana demon crystals. Consider this my apology."

His face twisted with regret—those rare Two-Refinent Nirvana demon crystals had cost him dearly.

Raising his eyebrows, Lin Langtian sent his spirit sense into the pouch, verifying the contents before nodding in satisfaction. "Very well. You may go."

Lin Langtian knew his current limits well. Though he was only at the half-step Nirvana stage, his powers, enhanced by Nine-Serpent Fla, were equivalent to a Nirvana practitioner. Coupled with his spirit power as a Symbol Master and the Devouring Ancestral Symbol, he could deliver attacks powerful enough to severely injure, or even kill, Two-Refinent Nirvana experts.

However, Tian Zhen was one of the Four Great Rulers of the Northwestern Region, a seasoned expert at the peak of Two-Refinent Nirvana. Lin Langtian understood that even with the Fla Alliance, defeating Tian Zhen here would be a costly battle, and he'd rather bide his ti until he grew stronger.

"Lin Langtian," Tian Zhen warned, his voice sharp, "don't think this is over. The rivers flow forever, and we'll et again." With a last nacing look, Tian Zhen vanished from the city in a few flashes.

Those who watched Tian Zhen retreat, defeated and humiliated, fell silent, all eyes now fixed in fearful respect on Lin Langtian. It was almost unthinkable that the Violent Wolf Tian Zhen, one of the most dangerous figures in the Northwestern Region, had been forced to retreat after failing to intimidate a re alliance of low and mid-level kingdoms.

Lin Langtian had proven to be ruthless and powerful, the kind of leader who could rise to fa quickly. It was now certain that news of Tian Zhen's retreat would soon spread across the region, establishing the Fla Alliance as a force not to be trifled with.

Ignoring the crowd's stunned expressions, Lin Langtian swept his gaze to the remaining forces of the Magma Rock Dynasty. The mbers of the Dynasty, including Shi Kun and his brother, quaked with fear, knowing that if Tian Zhen had been forced to pay a steep price to retreat, their fate was sealed.

Without further hesitation, Lin Langtian gestured to his warriors, sending them to finish off the Magma Rock Dynasty once and for all.

With Shadow Demon leading the charge and no one strong enough to interfere, the operation was swift. Within monts, the forces of the Magma Rock Dynasty, including Shi Kun and his brother, were all lying lifeless.

Gazing down at the bodies of the Shi brothers, Lin Langtian commanded coldly, "Hang Shi Kun and Shi Xuan's bodies from the city gates. Let everyone see the consequences of challenging the Fla Alliance!"
