"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Young man, you truly are arrogant!"
"Even your master wouldn’t dare say such words. You really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth."
Wang Zhiwei couldn’t help but laugh as he watched Chen Chang'an's audacious demeanor. Ignorance, at times, could indeed make a man fearless.
In Wang Zhiwei's eyes, Chen Chang'an was nothing more than an ignorant fool who had no idea what the Wang Family represented—or the Mu Family, for that matter.
Even if he stood at the peak of the Tai Xuan Realm, in the eyes of the Ancient Immortal Domain, he was nothing but an ant that could be crushed with a mere flick.
What right did he have to be so arrogant?
"Whether I have the right or not, why don’t you test it and see?"
Chen Chang'an smiled faintly. In the next instant, an overwhelming aura erupted from his body, so terrifying that even Wang Zhiwei felt a chill in his heart.
This kid… was he really from the lower realm?
The strongest cultivators in the lower realms barely reached the Quasi-Emperor realm. How could he unleash such a fearsome presence?
"No wonder the young lady of the Mu Family took a liking to you. You truly are a monstrous talent."
"Pity. Your strength is still far from enough to face me."
Though the aura was formidable, Wang Zhiwei didn’t take Chen Chang'an seriously at all. Even though his own power was somewhat restricted in the lower realm, he was still no pushover.
"Let me show you what true strength looks like!"
With a cold snort, Wang Zhiwei abruptly lashed out, his palm striking directly toward Chen Chang'an’s chest.
Seeing this, Mu Yunyao’s expression changed. She was about to intervene when Da Huang nudged her leg.
In that split second of hesitation, Wang Zhiwei’s palm landed squarely on Chen Chang'an’s chest.
"Hmm?"
Wang Zhiwei was confident in his strength. This strike should have been enough to obliterate even a Quasi-Emperor, let alone an Emperor or a Quasi-Immortal.
Yet, Chen Chang'an simply stood there, smiling at him.
His attack… had done no damage at all?
Only then did Mu Yunyao remember—Chen Chang'an’s physique was even more monstrous than his talent. She had been so worried that she’d forgotten.
Da Huang had to remind her.
It seemed Chen Chang'an had deliberately stood still, testing his opponent’s strength.
"Is this the power of the Wang Family?"
"Seems rather unimpressive," Chen Chang'an remarked lightly.
"Young man, I underestimated you."
"But you should never mock the Wang Family!"
Wang Zhiwei’s expression darkened as an even more terrifying force surged from his body, gathering in his palm.
"Die!"
Now, Wang Zhiwei was intent on killing. Chen Chang'an’s bizarre resilience had unsettled him. This kid was too abnormal—he couldn’t be allowed to grow any further!
Boom!
A devastating shockwave erupted from the clash between Chen Chang'an and Wang Zhiwei, spreading outward in all directions.
If not for Mu Yunyao’s protection, Da Huang would have been obliterated on the spot.
Meanwhile, the entire Tai Xuan Realm trembled violently under the force of Wang Zhiwei’s attack.
The presence of power that did not belong to this world had a catastrophic impact on the realm.
"What… what is happening? Can you feel it? This energy is terrifying!"
"By the heavens, is this a battle between peak-level Emperors? How can it be so destructive?"
"The skies darken, rivers reverse, the earth quakes, mountains collapse… is the Tai Xuan Realm about to be destroyed?"
"What is going on? Can someone tell me what’s happening?"
Panic swept across the entire Tai Xuan Realm as everyone sensed an unprecedented crisis looming over them.
"Wang Zhiwei, are you trying to destroy the Tai Xuan Realm?"
"Stop this at once!" Mu Yunyao shouted furiously.
Stop?
Wang Zhiwei’s eyes burned red as he stared at Chen Chang'an, his heart filled with disbelief.
Why? Why was this happening? There was no way he should have survived that attack—no way at all!
"You… who are you?"
Wang Zhiwei never imagined that someone so terrifying could exist in the Tai Xuan Realm.
Was he really just Mu Yunyao’s disciple?
How could he possess such strength while still in the lower realm?
Wang Zhiwei had just unleashed the strongest attack he could muster under the realm’s restrictions, yet Chen Chang'an remained unharmed.
"Who am I? Just my master’s disciple."
"Now, do you think I have the right?" Chen Chang'an asked with a smile.
"Hmph!"
"Wishful thinking. I’m merely restricted here. If I could unleash my full power, both you and this world would be annihilated!"
"Do you really think you have any right?"
"If we were in the Ancient Immortal Domain, you’d already be dead," Wang Zhiwei sneered.
Already dead?
Chen Chang'an didn’t know Wang Zhiwei’s true strength, but as a member of the Wang Family—one of the Nine Immortal Clans—he was undoubtedly formidable.
If even now, Wang Zhiwei couldn’t harm him, then in the Ancient Immortal Domain, ordinary experts would likely be unable to touch him.
But the current Chen Chang'an was no longer the powerless youth he once was.
"I’m tough."
"But now, I can fight back too."
"You’ve had your turn. Now… it’s mine."
Hmm?
Your turn?
You actually think you can strike back?
Wang Zhiwei looked at Chen Chang'an with disdain. Even if he couldn’t kill him, what could this brat possibly do to him?
Ridiculous.
"Chang'an, you’re no match for him. Let this end here," Mu Yunyao urged.
Hearing her words, Chen Chang'an turned to her with a smile.
"Master, when we sparred last time, I didn’t use my full strength."
He hadn’t used his full strength?
During their previous test, he had held back?
And now, having broken through to the peak of the Emperor realm, he was undoubtedly even stronger.
Yet, Mu Yunyao still didn’t believe Chen Chang'an could defeat Wang Zhiwei.
Even with the realm’s suppression, killing Wang Zhiwei wouldn’t be easy. If he sensed true danger and lashed out recklessly, the Tai Xuan Realm would never withstand it.
In that case, Chen Chang'an would suffer the most—and the entire realm would perish with him.
"Chang'an, you still have family and friends in the Tai Xuan Realm. Don’t act recklessly."
"If the realm is destroyed, they will all die," Mu Yunyao said gravely.
"Master, don’t worry. I won’t let that happen."
"Besides, I want to see just how big the gap is between me and a true expert of the Ancient Immortal Domain."
Chen Chang'an grinned. In the next moment, a sword tore through the void, landing squarely in his grasp.
This was the first time since he began cultivating that he had truly wielded a sword.
And this sword—Mu Yunyao recognized it. Wang Zhiwei found it eerily familiar.
"This is… the God-Slaying Sword?"
"You actually gave him something so important?"
lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...

Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it.
