Shocking! Shocking! And damn shocking again!
Everyone present fell silent, their pupils quaking with disbelief!
They struggled to look at Su Muwan, who emanated a bone-chilling pressure.
Unbelievable, truly unbelievable!
How old was Su Muwan anyway?!
She actually... eliminated a veteran Peak Realm expert with a single move?
It's worth noting that even though Shangguan Quan was only at the early stage of Peak Realm, his strength was far beyond that of ordinary Peak Realm practitioners!
But!
But still!
How could Shangguan Quan just turn into powder like that?!
What?
Is this for real?
Just how powerful is Su Muwan? How could someone so young already be at Peak Realm?!
More importantly!
They gulped, their faces pale and terrified.
The technique Su Muwan used... seemed to share similarities with Shangguan Quan's!!
And her version appeared more powerful! More direct in its effects!
If one were to say Su Muwan learned this beforehand, the similarities were far too striking.
Which means...
At this moment, a terrifying thought occurred to everyone present.
Could it be...
Did Su Muwan... simply learn and improve upon someone else's technique just by watching it once?!
Such talent!
Monster!! Prodigy!!
Everyone was frozen in shock.
They all swallowed hard.
Young Miss Su... was truly terrifying beyond measure!
Jiang Xueqi had already turned pale with fright and sat back down.
She held her breath.
Her heart screaming in disbelief.
How could you be so powerful, Su Muwan! How?!
We're the same age! You didn't show any special talent when we were young!
But why?!!
Jiang Xueqi felt extremely unbalanced in her heart.
She had always compared herself to Su Muwan since childhood.
From being equals at first, it gradually became...
I'm a worthless person who can't cultivate.
While Su Muwan's talent became number one in Jiang City.
And now.
Su Muwan could... kill a Peak Realm expert with one palm?
This! This isn't fair!!
Shui Yue was also shocked by the scene before her.
Her previously calm and composed demeanor immediately crumbled.
What?!
One palm... to destroy a Peak Realm expert?
Could even the Master do this?
Shui Yue swallowed hard, and although she didn't want to admit it...
But.
Even though the Master had extraordinary martial talent, she probably couldn't destroy a Peak Realm expert with one palm.
But that might not be true!
After all, the Master's favorite game was cat and mouse.
So it's understandable if she never used her full power.
And this Su Muwan clearly struck in a moment of extreme anger, so who's stronger between Su Muwan and the Master would only be known through an actual confrontation!
Moreover!
The Master's greatest strength isn't even her cultivation!
But rather! Her schemes!
That's right!
Shui Yue took a deep breath, gradually regaining her composure.
Relax, Shui Yue, what kind of person is the Master?
Seeing Su Muwan this strong would only excite her more.
Heh, Su Muwan, don't get too proud, no matter how strong you are.
Before my Master, you're nothing but a pawn for her entertainment!
Shui Yue secretly decided she needed to report this to the Master quickly!
Wang Yong and Feng Yueke were also frightened stupid.
He fearfully huddled with Feng Yueke: "Whimper... junior sister..."
"Senior brother... Young Miss Su is too strong, we must never provoke her in the future!"
"Whimper... yes..."
Wang Yong trembled, originally still harboring hatred for Su Muwan in his heart.
But in this situation...
What hatred could he possibly maintain?!
Shangguan Xiao became completely stunned as her protector perished.
She mumbled in disbelief: "Eh..."
Shangguan Quan... dead?
Just like that... dead?
It hadn't even been a minute, right?
Shangguan Xiao stared blankly at Su Muwan.
For the first time in her life, she understood what fear felt like.
Most importantly...
If Su Muwan could kill a Peak Realm expert, didn't that mean she was at least at Peak Realm herself?
She's so young...
Even with my innate essence, I'm not confident I could reach Peak Realm before age 25!!
The huge disparity was something Shangguan Xiao simply couldn't accept: "No... impossible... this can't be..."
Click! Click!
Some media reporters instinctively pressed their shutters.
Originally, they had wanted to capture Su Muwan's side being humiliated.
But...
How did it end up with members of the royal city's two major families being reduced to such a state instead?
In the silence that fell over the scene.
Qin Luo blinked, looking at Su Muwan in surprise.
Wait.
What?
Su Muwan, what exactly is your cultivation level?
One palm to destroy a Peak Realm expert? What chance do other protagonists have?!
To be honest, Qin Luo was also stunned, but felt it was absurd yet somehow reasonable.
If Su Muwan wasn't this strong, how could she survive until the end?
Thinking this, Qin Luo walked towards Su Muwan under everyone's gaze, smiling.
He chuckled: "Well done, Young Miss."
Su Muwan snorted upon hearing this, first glaring at Qin Luo.
The meaning was clear - we'll settle accounts later!
Then she swept her gaze across everyone present and said coldly: "What Shangguan family, what Dragon family."
"Nothing but worthless chickens and dogs."
"Boring."
"Let's go, Qin Luo."
"Yes, Young Miss."
With that.
Su Muwan and her group departed magnificently.
And as Su Muwan's group left.
Hiss!
Everyone finally caught their breath, taking deep gulps of air.
Su Muwan!
How terrifyingly powerful!
In a corner of the restaurant.
A woman in a kimono was watching this scene with great interest.
She turned to speak to a man in a suit wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who maintained a calm expression and showed complete disregard for his surroundings: "Hey, Yamada, you don't see such interesting scenes in Cherry Blossom City."
"Two major families of the royal city being dominated by a Su family young miss."
"This is absolutely fantastic!!"
The man named Yamada heard this, took a bite of sushi, and while chewing replied calmly: "Well, Miss Nakamura, it's rare for you to come out."
"But don't worry, we'll be operating in Jiang City for quite a while."
"After all..."
A strange look appeared in the man's eyes: "The leader has instructed us to liaison with the Song family, and be ready at any time for... the Rakshasa King's release!!"
Hearing this, Nakamura nodded, saying excitedly: "Yes, yes, when the Black Dragon Organization and Rakshasa Palace join forces!! First we'll dominate Jiang City! Then Cherry Blossom City!! Followed by the surrounding cities!"
"Finally unifying the entire underworld!"
Compared to the excited Miss Nakamura, Yamada appeared somewhat calm.
After all...
The Su family of Jiang City had a late-stage Peak Realm expert...
The leader told us to cooperate with the Song family, but how should we deal with this late-stage Peak Realm expert?
However...
Admiration showed in Yamada's eyes.
If it's that leader, they surely must have already thought of a solution.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
