Like so, word spread fast, leaving several powerful forces taken aback.
"Did he really do that?"
"Does Old Slytherin have a female chest?"
"Pfft.~ Bahahahahahhaha~... Aiyo~... I can't hold it anymore. My belly... My belly... When was the last time I laughed so hard?"
"Hmph! Serves him right. I've always wanted to smash that arrogant mouth of his. And now, someone has done it for me... Still, I'm pissed at the audacity of these Tah people to dare lay a finger on anyone from Yanging... How dare they?"
"Exactly! We are the only ones allowed to bully our kind. So since when will it be the turn of these lowly cultivators to make a move?"
"Garbage people! Do they think they can successfully make it to the other end of the city in one piece? How naive! So long as they're still here, dealing with them will be as easy as crushing a bag of nuts."
"That's for sure... Still... I'm curious about the young man no older than 16."
Everyone nodded, wondering how such a youngster could be stronger than someone like Slytherin, who has lived for over 600 years.
Honestly, even they don't believe it. But bones don't lie. According to those who reported the news, he was indeed 16 years and a few months old.
Even when passing through the borders, the formation and other procedures one has to complete, also checked the boy's age and confirmed it.
So how did he do it?
Many frowned, massaging their chins and beards thoughtfully.
"You there... You said you couldn't see through his Dao and Dan level, right?"
"Yes, my lords. This humble servant couldn't see through the boy, and I'm certain even Lord Slytherin might have failed in doing so too."
Or else why would he confidently make a move if he knew he was bound to lose?
Everyone felt it was true.
The old crony had hit a wall on this one.
Many who didn't like him felt pleased but quickly vanished their merry feelings aside.
"There are only 2 reasons for this... The boy is either a super genius seen once in a billion years, or he acquired some powerful artifact that could protect him against people under a certain strength level. But seeing as the first option is ridiculous, I think the latter is true."
After all, in all the Lower Realm's history, no one has ever gotten so strong at such a religiously young age.
If he was clicking his 200s or even 300s, then maybe they might believe it a bit.
But this boy was 16!!!... 16, for crying out loud.
So wasn't this just too insane?
That is, who in their right mind would believe? They would rather pluck their eyes and eat them raw than believe such hocus pocus. ραпdαs `n?ν?| сom
Hell! Even a 5-year-old kid would be skeptical.
Such things were basic knowledge in this world. Everyone knows the order of how things went.
You cultivate, grow older, and get stronger.
As simple as that. So even if there were geniuses that came out now and then, they didn't grow strong so fast.
What's more, the boy is from the Tah Province... The most qi-deficient place of all. And now you tell them he managed to cultivate to such a powerful level while living in the Tah province and expect them to believe it?
Impossible!
"I've never heard of such an artifact before... So it must be a fallen artifact from the domain above!"
Boom!
A dangerous explosion went off at many people's ends, followed by strong greed to retain the artifact.
If before their only objective was to teach these Profound Sect a lesson, now, they took it even more personally, wanting to steal the artifact for themselves.
Of course, many didn't want to work with others. And like that, they made excuses to part.
"Well, look at the time. I must meet up with my disciples on a very important matter."
"Hahahhahaha~... I too will take my leave. It's been a long time since I went for a stroll. I might as well do that now."
"Hey, it looks like I'm not the only one who wants to stroll around the city. Well, bid you all farewell."
Time to find the boy with the artifact.
What a joke!
Such artifacts that can mask their strength while also assisting and energizing one during battle were too precious to leave in the hands of any Tah people.
Everyone felt Chu Che blocked Slytherin's attack thanks to whatever artifact he had.
Even though he caught the spear with his fingers, these people were still adamant on the fact that it was the artifact that somehow helped him out.
They didn't know how, but they had concluded on the matter. The truth was staring them in the face, but they didn't want to believe it.
In the end, they felt it was the artifact that was mighty.
That said, imagine what the artifact could do for them if they square up with opponents far stronger than themselves.
A cruel smile stretched on their faces as many scattered across the city, now rushed to find the arrogant Tah boy.
They must get it... They must acquire the Fallen artificial!
