Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Little girl, don’t be afraid. You’re so pretty, this Manor Master won’t easily kill you!”

Ren Qian, upon arriving and seeing Lv Xiaoman, couldn’t help but have a glint of interest in his eyes. The famed beauty of the Lv family in Wuchuan City was known to all, and even he, the Vice Manor Master of Tiger Roar Manor, had to admit that Lv Xiaoman was indeed a beauty.

No true power holder in Wuchuan City was without sin. Over the years, Ren Qian had helped Pan Lianhu commit countless vile acts, including the abduction of women and their children without hesitation.

The Lv family was Tiger Roar Manor’s greatest enemy. Anything that could bring suffering to the enemy, Ren Qian would tirelessly pursue, and what could cause Lv An more pain than humiliating his cherished daughter right before his eyes?

Faced with a cultivator at the late stage of the Origin Seeking Realm, whose cultivation was on par with her father’s, Lv Xiaoman feared she couldn’t withstand a single move. Upon hearing the obscene tone in the opponent’s words, her body instinctively shrank a little.

”Brother Xingchen...”

At this moment, Lv Xiaoman dared not rely on Tang Gu, who was at the same level as her. Instead, she instinctively hid behind Yun Xiao, feeling perhaps a greater sense of security there.

”Peak of Qi Seeking Realm?”

Seeing Lv Xiaoman hide behind a boy, Ren Qian was initially taken aback, but upon sensing the true cultivation of this plainly dressed young man, a look of disdain appeared on his face.

”I say, Miss Lv, you don’t actually think this kid can protect you, do you?”

Ren Qian wasn’t aware of how Yu Wu had died, so he didn’t know how terrifying the plainly dressed young man in front of him was. He only knew that given the difference in their realms, the young man posed no threat to him.

If someone else had died, perhaps the insider Yu Wu within Tiger Roar Manor might have relayed the terror of this plainly dressed youth to the Vice Manor Master.

Unfortunately, Yu Wu was now dead, and the cultivators who had switched allegiance to Tiger Roar Manor hadn’t yet developed any genuine camaraderie with the Vice Manor Master.

Thus, at this moment, they all remained silent, watching the unfolding of the situation.

Even though these cultivators didn’t believe the Star would be a match for Ren Qian, the momentum of Xingchen’s earlier kick that killed Yu Wu had weakened their convictions; perhaps something unexpected would occur?

”Kid, if you don’t want to die, step aside, or else this Manor Master’s fists might not miss!”

Ren Qian viewed this youth at the peak of the Qi Seeking Realm with contempt, but he felt so superior that he thought attacking a mere Qi Seeking Realm boy demeaned his Late Stage Origin Seeking Realm status and made him seem like a bully. So he spoke another word.

”Alright!”

However, just when everyone thought Xingchen would stubbornly resist, they were surprised to see the plainly dressed youth nod and actually step aside a few feet, revealing Lv Xiaoman behind him.

”Smart kid!”

Seeing this, Ren Qian was rather satisfied, feeling that his prestige as the Vice Manor Master of Tiger Roar Manor had been affirmed, achieving the highest level of battle strategy: winning without fighting.

”Brother Xingchen...”

But seeing Yun Xiao move aside, the person behind him, Lv Xiaoman, didn’t want to abandon this lifeline. She knew who her real savior was. Relying on Tang Gu would likely lead to a tragic end, so she moved sideways several feet with him.

”What is this, a game to amuse this Manor Master?”

Seeing this boy and girl opposite, seemingly just playing a game by moving positions, with the Lv family’s young lady still shielded behind the plainly dressed boy, Ren Qian felt his patience waning rapidly.

Yun Xiao was quite helpless about this. He truly didn’t want to get involved in the Lv family’s matters, but Lv Xiaoman clung to him like a plaster, leaving him no choice but to reluctantly lift his head, glancing at Ren Qian.

”Step aside, you!”

With Yun Xiao’s helpless look, Ren Qian’s last shred of patience vanished. He stepped forward and reached out his hand, intending to push Yun Xiao aside. However, the force of that push wasn’t something an ordinary person could withstand.

In Ren Qian’s view, this push of his would send even a cultivator in the early to middle stage of the Origin Seeking Realm several feet flying. As for a mere ant of a Qi Seeking boy, he might be directly crushed into severe injury.

Ren Qian had been polite to Yun Xiao earlier just to assert his authority as Vice Manor Master, not because he was a good person or feared a Qi Seeking boy.

So, injuring or killing the youth before him was not a problem for Ren Qian. After all, the boy should have stayed away.

”Sigh, very well, you started it!”

Seeing Ren Qian’s push approaching, and sensing the merciless power behind it, anger surged in Yun Xiao’s eyes. His soft-spoken words left Ren Qian and the others around feeling inexplicable.

The young man seemed to underestimate the Vice Manor Master of Tiger Roar Manor as being as insignificant as Yu Wu. Despite being under attack, instead of dodging, he audaciously taunted.

At this moment, almost everyone had sentenced this plainly dressed youth to death, including Tang Gu at the side.

”Hmm?”

However, at this moment, everyone saw a somewhat familiar scene. The coarse-clothed youth slowly raised his right arm again, and, just like before, used his index and middle fingers to clamp the wrist of Ren Qian, the Vice Manor Master of Tiger Roar Manor.

It was clearly Yun Xiao’s move used against Yu Wu earlier. What surprised everyone was that facing Ren Qian, whose strength surpassed Yu Wu by two entire realms, the youth employed the same tactic.

Yet, the youth’s two fingers precisely clamped onto Ren Qian’s right wrist. Regardless of the power, the precision alone was awe-inspiring.

”Could Ren Qian’s wrist also be broken?”

Seeing this familiar scene, many people thought of Yu Wu’s fate earlier. Yet, the thought was quickly dismissed; they believed the Tiger Roar Manor’s Vice Manor Master was much stronger than Yu Wu.

Crack!

At that moment, the crowd heard a tooth-gritting yet extremely familiar sound, then saw the exact same scene as before.

Ren Qian, the Manor Master of Tiger Roar Manor, a formidable Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage cultivator, had his right wrist hanging limp, evidently broken just like Yu Wu’s by the coarse-clothed youth Xing with those two fingers.

”Not good!”

Initially, Ren Qian paid little attention to the coarse-clothed youth, but soon felt a sharp pain in his wrist, realizing it was bent unnaturally—clearly broken.

It was only then that Ren Qian realized he had encountered a seemingly weak but actually powerful adversary. Considering the ease with which the youth broke his wrist, the youth’s battle strength was far above his own.

The Tiger Roar Manor’s Vice Manor Master showed a quick response. Realizing he wasn’t a match, he decided to retreat swiftly, hoping to avoid the youth’s superiority.

But, as Ren Qian slightly moved, he felt as though his right wrist was gripped by a giant’s hand. He then watched as the coarse-clothed youth raised his right leg slowly.

”Could it be...”

Seeing Yun Xiao raise his right leg, the crowd felt a familiar sensation surge through their minds.

Because, earlier, Yu Wu had his fingers broken and was killed with a kick. Could the Tiger Roar Manor’s Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage Vice Manor Master Ren Qian follow the same fate?

”It shouldn’t be possible!”

Some prudent cultivators slightly shook their heads, thinking there’s a vast difference between Ren Qian at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage and Yu Wu at the Early Stage, so the youth couldn’t possibly kick Ren Qian to death, could he?

Bam!

But in the next moment, they witnessed a familiar scene again. The Tiger Roar Manor’s Vice Manor Master Ren Qian flew back just like Yu Tong under Xing’s kick.

Even the spurt of blood mixed with organ fragments was exactly like Sun Tong.

”He actually... did it?!”

At this instant, the bystanders’ eyes almost popped out of their sockets, as it completely overturned their cultivation perspective.

Yu Wu at the Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage was understandable, given the meridian qi gap wasn’t too significant. But Ren Qian, a dignified Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage cultivator, the Vice Manor Master of Tiger Roar Manor, how could he end up just like Yu Tong?

”This guy named Xing is definitely not at the peak of Qi Seeking Realm!”

Only when Ren Qian’s ragged body hit the ground did some people finally realize this belatedly. At least they believed that if Xing was truly only at the peak of Qi Seeking Realm, he couldn’t have possibly done these things.

”I... I... Ugh...”

The distant Ren Qian, although his viscera were shattered, was ultimately much stronger than Yu Wu, not dying immediately. Despite this, his face turned extremely grim, like mourning for deceased parents.

As Ren Qian spat out another mouthful of blood mixed with organ fragments, his eyes were fixed on the far coarse-clothed figure, feeling as though that silhouette was becoming increasingly blurred and distant.

”This time, it’s truly miscalculated!”

Feeling his wounds, knowing he wouldn’t survive, Ren Qian couldn’t see the coarse-clothed youth clearly any longer. But he regretted deeply; it was a mistake costing the entire game.

Ren Qian seemed to foresee Tiger Roar Manor’s imminent defeat, all because they hadn’t anticipated the Lv Family having such a terrifying cultivator.

That seemingly harmless coarse-clothed youth was indeed too deceptive.
