Head of the Huangfu Clan

"Little Tianxiao, so there are times when even you get nervous and scared?"

A gentle, teasing voice entered Mo Tianxiao's ears as Lin Wanyi's figure suddenly appeared beside the three of them.

"Cursing the entire Huangfu family like dogs, you really have some nerve."

A trace of helplessness flashed across Lin Wanyi's face. She had originally intended to use Mo Tianxiao to set up the Huangfu family, giving them a casual warning to make them rein themselves in.

She didn't expect this little guy to be so ruthless right from the start. He snatched Huangfu Yunteng's quasi-Saint weapon, tried to kill him, and even cursed the entire Huangfu family as being worse than dog shit.

Now, the Huangfu family probably wouldn't let this go easily.

With that thought, Lin Wanyi casually waved her arm. A majestic and vast Saint aura soared into the sky. In mere moments, the sky cleared, and that terrifying, world-destroying giant hand vanished with a boom.

The dim sky regained its brightness, and everything returned to normal, as if nothing had ever happened.

This sudden turn of events stunned all the cultivators. They halted their fleeing steps and slowly recovered their wits.

There's another expert?!

Seeing the suddenly appearing figure, Huangfu Cheng's pupils shrank violently, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.

"Elder Lin!"

As a higher-up of the Huangfu family, he naturally recognized Lin Wanyi. She was the Grand Elder of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, second in status only to the Palace Master, Su Muyao!

There were also disparities within the Saint Realm.

And the gap between him and her was like the difference between the Foundation Establishment and Deity Transformation realms.

One was an early-stage Saint who had just entered the Saint Realm, while the other was a powerhouse who had long stepped into the Saint King Realm. They were not on the same level at all.

That wasn't even the main point. If she were just a Saint King, the Huangfu family still wouldn't fear her.

The important thing was her identity: Grand Elder of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace!

What did her appearance here mean?

And she had even saved these three people.

Could it be that, just as this brat said, he really was an Honorary Elder of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace?

But even if he was an Honorary Elder, he couldn't insult the Huangfu family so recklessly. The status of an Honorary Elder wouldn't be enough to protect him!

"Oh my god, she's finally here. My little heart was almost scared to death!"

Lin Wuya slumped to the ground, his body completely drenched in sweat.

Just a little bit more, just a tiny bit more, and he would have been separated from his granddaughter by death.

"Holy crap!? That's... Elder Lin of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace!"

"Are you kidding me? Brother Li Yu really has ties with the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace??"

The cultivators who had run far away saw another reversal in the situation and immediately emboldened themselves to approach and observe.

It was rare for such a lively event to happen in the Immortal City; they couldn't bear to leave.

Lin Wanyi didn't even spare Huangfu Cheng a glance. Instead, her gaze fell upon Mo Tianxiao, her eyes rippling with light as she asked, "Are you alright?"

Mo Tianxiao grinned, bearing his teeth. "Aunt Lin, if you had been a second later, I would have died with lingering grievances."

He put the jade stone he was clutching back into his spatial ring, his palms covered in sweat.

This was his first time directly facing an attack from a Saint Realm expert. That kind of oppressive feeling left absolutely no possibility of resistance.

Just a sliver of their aura made him unable to put up any fight.

It scared him so much he almost cried out for his master.

If Lin Wanyi hadn't acted, he really would have started cursing.

"Died with lingering grievances?"

Lin Wanyi tilted her head and stared at him, her tender, watery eyes filled with deep resentment, looking very much like a neglected wife in her boudoir. Her tone carried a hint of helplessness.

"You certainly stole the show, cursing the entire Huangfu family from top to bottom. I'm afraid the Huangfu family won't let this go easily."

Mo Tianxiao stood up straight and said righteously, "Aunt Lin, I don't care about that. Senior Su said I could wreak as much havoc as I wanted and that she would protect me."

If it weren't for Su Muyao's promise, how could he have dared to think about killing Huangfu Yunteng in one fell swoop?

No one knew better than him how difficult it was to personally kill a Child of Destiny. He had finally decided to try a forceful kill, planning to let Su Muyao block the disaster for him.

As for the result...

He could only say that a Child of Destiny was truly hard to kill.

"Sigh..."

Lin Wanyi shook her head helplessly.

As expected, the Demonic Sect did not raise useless people, let alone the Eldest Senior Brother of the Demonic Sect, the personal core disciple of the Demonic Sect's Sect Master.

"Huangfu Cheng, your Huangfu family has a lot of nerve!"

Towards Mo Tianxiao, Lin Wanyi had nothing more to say, but facing Huangfu Cheng, her aura abruptly changed.

A sharp glint shot from her eyes straight at Huangfu Cheng, making his body tremble slightly as sweat broke out on his forehead.

Beside him, Huangfu Yunteng, who was still lying on the ground, had a sluggish look in his eyes, completely unaware of what had just happened.

But he recognized the person before him: the Grand Elder of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, the very person who had flatly rejected his entry into the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace.

"Elder Lin, what business brings you to my Huangfu family?"

In the next instant, a man who looked to be only in his fifties appeared beside Huangfu Cheng.

Dressed in gorgeous attire and sporting a round, bulging belly, he squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Wanyi slyly, a trace of obscene greed flashing in his gaze.

"Patriarch!"

"Second Grandpa!"

Huangfu Cheng saw the man appear beside him, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and called out respectfully.

A light also shone in Huangfu Yunteng's eyes.

"Huangfu Donghai, how arrogant and domineering your Huangfu family is, my Jade Pool Heavenly Palace has no right to control."

Lin Wanyi fixed her eyes on Huangfu Donghai and said in an icy voice, "But touching someone from my Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, I'm afraid that's going a bit too far."

"Elder Lin, why say such things? Could it be that this Profound Comprehension Realm rogue cultivator is really an elder of your Jade Pool Heavenly Palace?"

Huangfu Donghai's expression remained unchanged. Squinting his eyes with a smiling face, looking just like a smiling tiger, he teased in a mocking tone:

"If that's really the case, then I apologize to Elder Lin. After all, we couldn't believe that the always pure and pristine Jade Pool Heavenly Palace would actually recruit a male elder."

"If Elder Lin had said earlier that the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace lacked men, my Huangfu family would definitely have given our strong support. Why find a lowly Profound Comprehension Realm cultivator? Looking at his small frame, I'm afraid he won't be up to the task."

His words were full of mockery and sarcasm.

Lin Wanyi's face sank slightly, her expression becoming rather ugly.

Was this Huangfu family now too lazy to even maintain superficial relations? It seemed they had long wanted to clash with the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace.

"Whether my body is up to the task or not, you'll know if you go back and ask your old mother.

I don't know if the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace lacks men, but they certainly lack a few watchdogs. I see you, you old dog, are quite good at biting people. Why don't you give it a try? I'll have Aunt Lin reward you with an extra rotten bone."

Lin Wanyi was just about to mock him back, but Mo Tianxiao's loud and clear voice had already rung out.

Seeing this, the corners of Lin Wanyi's mouth turned up slightly. She had almost forgotten about this lawless brat; it was more fitting to let this little guy do the cursing.

"Brat! You're courting death!"

Huangfu Donghai's face instantly darkened like charcoal. Just one sentence had broken through his smiling tiger facade, causing endless fury to surge in his heart.

How could this brat's insults be so filthy!

"The one courting death is you."

A cold voice rang out. It wasn't loud, but it clearly entered the ears of everyone present.

"Slap!!"

In the next instant, a crisp slapping sound echoed. Then, the crowd watched as a round, bulging figure was sent flying with a boom, smashing through countless buildings before being buried in the ruins.
