"This..."
"Xuanwu Realm's first level, dead?"
Said a dumbfounded Xiao Fa.
Xiao Chen had once again surpassed expectations.
He had thought that reaching level 9 of Spirit Incarnation Realm at an age like Xiao Chen's would be the limit. He would be considered a peerless genius.
However, how long had it been since Xiao Chen killed Bai Yu?
Now, this young man could already defeat an expert from the Xuanwu Realm!
"I'm really behind, huh?"
Xiao Fa shook his head, a layer of gloom quietly settling in a corner of his heart.
"This kid is so ungodly. Perhaps, I can reunite with his mother in the future?"
A thought flashed through his mind as his eyes gradually calmed down.
It was too early to say that. The Xuanwu Realm was just an ant in the face of that larger force.
At the very least, it was the Lingwu Realm that deserved their attention.
"Prefecture master, the Sky Thunder Clan's elders can't just die like this!"
A loud voice was heard in the meeting hall of the government office.
A middle-aged man in a purple cloak spoke in a deep voice, bearing a gloomy expression.
He was the young master of the Sky Thunder Clan, Lei Sanqian.
His cultivation had also reached the Xuanwu Realm.
Next to him was a group of Sky Thunder Clan experts. Their expressions were cold as an invisible pressure was released, intimidating many experts in Prefecture City.
"Prefecture master, you must give me an explanation today. Xiao Chen has killed Lei Qianjie, seriously breaking the rules. If you don't punish him severely, then we, the Sky Thunder Clan, will do it ourselves!"
Lei Sanqian said with passion.
"Are you threatening me, Lei Sanqian?"
The prefecture master's eyes changed as he said coldly.
Surrounding him were the principals of the six greatest households in Tianyang Prefecture, along with some principals from other wealthy families. At this moment, their expressions were somewhat strange as they looked at Lei Sanqian with a hint of mockery in their eyes.
How dare the Sky Thunder Clan wage war against the Xiao family!
They were really... not afraid of death.
"That's not true. But according to the palace's orders, our clan cannot kill a household. However, this is not the reason why we allow the households to kill us as they please."
Lei Sanqian said in a low voice, his eyes filled with a trace of conflict.
The Sky Thunder Clan was a third-grade clan, so their status was roughly the same as Prefecture City.
However, due to the Haoyue Kingdom, they did not dare to slaughter the households, even though they were far stronger than Yunhai City.
Only with the permission of the government could they start a war.
Otherwise, they would have destroyed the Xiao family by now.
The prefecture master said calmly, "Let's talk about this later. At least on my behalf, the slaughter of other households is not allowed."
"Also, don't think that you're at a disadvantage. You don't know this, but I'm actually protecting you."
"Protecting us?"
Lei Sanqian laughed out loud and said proudly, "We, the Sky Thunder Clan, are a third-grade sect with numerous experts. In Tianyang Prefecture, we don't care about being protected!"
"Prefecture master, I might as well be frank with you. Whether you agree or not, I will kill the Xiao family and no one can save them."
"How dare you!"
The prefecture master was furious and was about to speak when a tall figure suddenly pushed the door open and entered.
"Kill the Xiao family? I'm standing right here. Let's see who you can kill." Xiao Chen looked coldly at Lei Sanqian and said indifferently.
"Who are you?"
Lei Sanqian asked in surprise before shouting angrily, "We big shots are talking here; what does it have to do with you? Get out!"
"You have no right to kick me out. Also, who am I, you say?"
Xiao Chen's face was calm as he said slowly, "I am Xiao Chen, from the Xiao family."
"You're Xiao Chen? You're the one who killed Lei Qianjie?"
Lei Sanqian's face changed slightly and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "And you dare to show up here? Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"
Xiao Chen shook his head and sneered, "Just you?"
"Just me."
As he spoke, the aura on Lei Sanqian's body trembled violently. After that, a terrifying Xuan energy storm emerged.
Level two of the Xuanwu Realm!
"Do you think you can be arrogant just because you killed Lei Qianjie? I can kill you in just three moves!"
Lei Sanqian spoke proudly. With a flick of his hand, a cold light appeared and shot out.
Xiao Chen's eyes turned cold, about to retaliate when the prefecture master shouted in a deep voice, "How dare you, Lei Sanqian! Where do you think you are that you dare to use force here?"
Without any movement, the Xuan energy that Lei Sanqian condensed had disappeared.
"Hmph, this kid is too arrogant. I was going to teach him a lesson, to teach him how to behave. What are you being so angry about, prefecture master?"
Lei Sanqian laughed, speaking indifferently.
"Teach me to behave? Why don't I teach you instead? You'd better keep a low profile in your next life."
Xiao Chen smiled plainly as he stretched out his hand and pointed at Lei Sanqian. "Kill him!"
"Huh?"
Lei Sanqian was taken aback.
What did this kid say?
Kill him?
"Haha, what makes you think you can kill me? Do you think you can order the households here? Who do you think you are?"
Lei Sanqian laughed, speaking with disdain.
Beside him, the Sky Thunder Clan experts revealed a mocking expression as well.
This kid must be out of his mind to order the households present to kill them.
How ridiculous that was.
Which one of these households was not better than the Xiao family of Yunhai City? Could he control them?
Even if he could order one or two of them, how could he kill them?
The Sky Thunder Clan had six people from the Xuanwu Realm present.
Unless they could call all the forces together, it would just be wishful thinking.
"Haha, did you bang your head on the door or something? How else would you say such a stupid thing?"
Lei Sanqian shook his head.
Xiao Chen acted as if he didn't hear it, saying plainly, "I said, kill him! I will not repeat it a third time!"
"Oh, you really don't quit, do you? I really don't get what you're insisting on." A disdainful smirk appeared at the corner of Lei Sanqian's mouth, but soon after, a smile emerged on his face.
In the Zhao family's camp, Zhao Zhao Qian slowly got up, bowing respectfully to Xiao Chen, "We shall comply with you, Young Master Xiao."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Zhao Qian took the lead, releasing his violent aura mercilessly.
"What!?"
Lei Sanqian's expression suddenly changed. He pointed at Zhao Zhao Qian in disbelief. "Are you crazy, Zhao Zhao Qian? Why do you listen to a junior like him?"
"You would never imagine how capable Young Master Xiao is."
Zhao Zhao Qian said coldly, immediately bringing his attack down in one move. Boom!
All of a sudden, the meeting hall was in a mess. Countless tables and chairs were blown away.
Level three of Xuanwu Realm!
Lei Sanqian exclaimed, shouting ferociously, "Zhao Zhao Qian, how dare you try and kill me? Are you trying to pick a fight with the Sky Thunder Clan?"
A cold voice responded to him. "Attack!"
Without mercy, he sent a palm down.
"How dare you mock Young Master Xiao! You should die!"
Feng Chen's expression changed as he shouted coldly.
As soon as his voice fell, he rushed out, punching a Xuanwu Realm expert from the Sky Thunder Clan.
Behind him, the other five households also reacted. The experts of the Xuanwu Realm advanced together.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" At this moment, every expert in the Xuanwu Realm used their strongest moves to attack the Sky Thunder Clan.
"How is this possible!"
"Are all of you crazy?"
The faces of the people from the Sky Thunder Clan turned pale in an instant as they shouted in horror.
Did this young man really command all of these experts with just one word?
How could such an absurd thing happen?
"No!"
Lei Sanqian roared, staring at the prefecture master, his eyes shining with urgency.
The situation had suddenly changed. The prefecture master was his last hope. "Prefecture master, this is the meeting hall, so no killing is allowed here. They're going against your rules! I beg for your cooperation."
Before the prefecture master could speak, Xiao Chen's cold voice sounded.
"Kill!"
Hearing this, the prefecture master's eyes flashed as he said calmly, "I've already warned you, but you didn't listen."
"You're asking for death here. Don't put the blame on others."
"No, I don't want to die!"
Lei Sanqian cried out in alarm, feeling as if the world was about to collapse.
Why didn't even the prefecture master help him?
Just now, when he was about to make his move, the prefecture master had stopped him, saying he was not to cause trouble in the meeting hall.
Why did his words change in the blink of an eye just because it was Xiao Chen who made the move this time? Suddenly, an absurd idea flashed through his mind.
"Is the prefecture master afraid of Xiao Chen? Does he not dare to stop Xiao Chen from killing me?"
However, this was such a ridiculous thing.
As a prefecture master, he was in control of trillions of people, and his power was monstrous. How would he fear a young man?
Unfortunately, Lei Sanqian had no chance to think.
"Disillusioned palm!"
Zhao Fenglei shouted coldly. His cultivation of level three of the Xuanwu Realm broke out, pressing hard on Lei Sanqian's chest with his palm!
The latter's internal organs were instantly destroyed.
One palm, disillusionment!
Lei Sanqian's eyes widened, dying with a grievance.
