Gongsun Nian's body impacted the ground fiercely.
"Young Master!" The 30-year-old woman hurried and quickly ran to help Gongsun Nian.
Suddenly, a giant palm several meters long made of fire fell from the sky in the direction of Ling Tian and the two girls. A terrifying aura enveloped them, while the temperature increased thunderously.
Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu were shocked at the sight of the giant palm made of fire, so they couldn't help but close their eyes and completely close in on Ling Tian when they felt the fierce flame.
"Hmph!" Ling Tian snorted, getting rid of the giant palm with ease and without even moving. His gaze didn't even leave the middle-aged man.
"You bastard! How dare you hurt the young master! You're looking for death!"
The 30-year-old young man roared fiercely, not caring that the first old man's attack had missed. His aura gathered and his Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivation level fiercely exploded.
Five spears glowing bright blue manifested in the sky, approaching Ling Tian in the blink of an eye and piercing him mercilessly.
However, Ling Tian did not even turn to look when the spears had not even come within five meters when they disappeared with ease, even erasing any remaining traces of cultivation essence.
The [Sword Domain] silently spread around, easily protecting both girls in its domain.
The 30-year-old man's complexion turned ugly, while the first elder's expression turned solemn and with a trace of apprehension and fear. He had not seen how this young man could easily slap Gongsun Nian, striking him even when he was by his side! He had even undone his most powerful attack, the [Palm of the Ninth Hell]!
It should be known that they are already the strongest and most powerful existences in the place and the entire south state! So this guy's strength must be beyond theirs!historical
And that meant that this guy could be a powerful genius! Even be a core disciple of those holy lands of the north state!
A peerless powerful genius!
"Young master!"
The woman arrived before Gongsun Nian and helped him up, looking at him with worry.
"Cough! Cough!" Gongsun Nian coughed up a few small puffs of blood, getting up with difficulty despite being supported by the woman. His eyes became vicious and filled with anger at the sight of Ling Tian.
"Damn- Cough! Damn you! I want you to die!" Gongsun Nian glared with killing intent at Ling Tian. He had damaged his pride and messed with his identity, so he deserved to die!
Ling Tian looked at him indifferently without caring about his words or the situation he was in and said, "Watch your words, if it was someone else you wouldn't even be alive." His indifferent and calm gaze soon returned to the middle-aged man in front of him, not caring about the others, much less the man stalking him from behind.
If it were in the past, Ling Tian would no doubt have killed outright without giving a second chance. But now he slightly refrained from doing so as he changed and matured, especially when the two girls were by his side. His image as the grandmaster and supreme ancestor should be maintained with righteousness and firmness, and not be a ruthless murderous madman, right?
Besides, he had to protect his descendants and make them respect them!
Not because he had unimaginable strength could he kill at every moment, even if he had only been given a bad look. Ling Tian could still feel a bit of the bad karma he had reaped in the past as the infamous Dragon King, so he wanted to refrain from killing freely for no reason if there was no need. Even if it sometimes seemed like that wasn't the case.
"You..." The 30-year-old gritted his teeth at the sight of a man younger than him not paying him a shred of attention.
"I haven't even been looking for trouble with you or your companions, but now you're the ones who are trying to mess with me." Ling Tian looked at the first elder and commented weakly, looking at him with boredom and indifference, "Go ahead, if you think you can suppress me and beat me, I dare you to do it. But if you can't, you won't even see your companions again, and you won't live to see tomorrow."
Ling Tian's eyes remained indifferent, as if they were not seeing an equal being, but mere weak ants that he could crush and kill at will with ease. There was not even a trace of anger or coldness in his eyes, as if what he did was of no importance to him.
The first elder's expression became dignified and serious, sensing that this guy's threats were beginning to chill the place, as if attracting death. Not a hint of a murderous aura or intent emanated from this young man's body, but even so, the intuition of life or death in the first elder alarmed him greatly.
"First elder, Uncle We, what are you waiting for? Kill that bastard! He hurt me, the young master! So he attacked our Gongsun family!"
Gongsun Nian's furious voice spread throughout the place. His furious and murderous gaze on Ling Tian did not diminish, wondering why he had not really been suppressed and killed.
"Young master..." The woman patted Gongsun Nian's shoulder, looking at him with some worry and calming him down slightly.
"But Aunt Xin, that damn bastard hit me!"
Unexpectedly, Gongsun Nian's voice held back a little and he turned to look at this woman with mild resentment, still complaining but changing his demeanor a little. He still showed respect and affection to this woman, after all, she is his father's concubine and a second mother to him!
"I know, young master." The 30-year-old woman, Gongsun Xin, nodded quickly but added in a low voice, "I also want to do justice for you, but I'm afraid this child's strength is no weaker than the first elder's..." Her gaze narrowed at Ling Tian, feeling threatened.
She had easily seen how this young man had easily dealt with both the first elder's and her brother's attacks, countering them to the point of making them vanish without even getting close to him. Moreover, he still had two little girls at his sides!
This strength should not be underestimated!
Furthermore, it seems that this young man did not use his full strength. Apparently, he only hit Gongsun Nian because he insulted the two girls who were with him. So they could probably let this matter go if they apologized.
But who were they? The Great and Powerful Gongsun Family! The most important one in the south state! They are not the ones who apologize to others, but others have to show humility and prostrate themselves before them, paying worship and submission!
If the news that they were afraid of a simple young man were to spread throughout the south state, their fame and reputation would fall to the ground! Everyone would laugh at the Gongsun family!
"You decide." Ling Tian looked only at the first elder, disregarding the others.
The first elder gritted his teeth, feeling helpless again as he felt that he was facing those old monsters, real known and famous powerhouses in the world that had real weight and identity.
Ling Tian's indifferent gaze insulted his pride and arrogance as a great Nascent Soul expert, but the situation was not favorable, much less was he certain of getting out alive if they proceeded.
"I don't have time to waste on you."
Ling Tian shook his head with a sigh as he saw that no one dared to attack, but neither did they dare to let him leave or withdraw their threatening auras. If Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu were not around, Ling Tian could think of getting rid of them without wasting any time.
At once, Ling Tian directed his flying sword with Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu, not turning to look a second time. There were better things to do than to keep wasting his time here.
"Hm! What's there to be afraid of! My grandfather is a powerhouse of the Body Condensation realm! This bastard can't be stronger than my grandfather!" Gongsun Nian spat resentfully at the sight of Ling Tian. Besides, he wanted those two girls as his concubines!
Suddenly, Gongsun Nian's gaze flashed with malice and he took out an arrow-shaped artifact from his storage ring. He quickly aimed the arrow at Ling Tian and poured all of his cultivation essence before forming a smaller arrow and launching it.
The small colorless thin arrow flew through the sky, arriving behind Ling Tian's head in less than a second.
"Wait! Young Master!"
The first elder could not react in time other than barely managing to shout in worry when he saw that the arrow easily disappeared without touching Ling Tian. He recognized this Gongsun Nian's skill, which was handed down by his own grandfather, Gongsun Linnai!
If used correctly, this spiritual weapon that had a powerful ability in the form of a soul attack could kill a Nascent Soul cultivator with the base of a Golden Core cultivator.
But it was too late to stop Gongsun Nian from doing so. The first elder approached Gongsun Nian, afraid that this guy might seriously want to kill him.
Unexpectedly Ling Tian didn't even turn around, let alone the two girls with him. They flew over the flying sword and disappeared from his sight.
"Are we safe?" The 30-year-old man muttered with a frown. He had felt something of a chill when Gongsun Nian had made such an attack. But it seemed that the young man had not been bothered.
However, the next second, a giant white finger fell from the sky, pointing at Gongsun Nian directly!
"Young master!"
* Boom! *
Several screams rang out as the ground shook fiercely and the place turned chaotic, causing everything in the place to disappear as the giant white finger struck.
