The shopkeeper’s voice had barely fallen when an arrogant voice rang out.
“The tenant is coming back?
Then tell him the Sun Family is taking this beast.
Here in Flying Horse Village, there is no one our Sun Family cannot afford to offend!”
“Fourth Master…
oh, Fourth Master, please have mercy.
Don’t make a scene here.” The shopkeeper was on the verge of tears.
“Get lost!
I don’t have time for you.
Keep nagging, and I’ll kick you out of here.
I’m claiming this beast today, and even the Heavenly King himself couldn’t stop me!
In this Flying Horse Village, anyone who dares to disrespect my Sun Family is courting death!”
The voice remained unbridled and utterly brazen.
Longtian, just hearing the conversation, was already furious.
But when he reached the door and saw the tragic state of the room, his anger blazed into a roaring inferno!
Inside the room, Zhuifeng, the Wind Chasing Leopard that had been resting on the bed, was now curled up in a corner.
The scabbed wounds on its body were bleeding once more, the fresh blood matting its fur and exposing blackened flesh.
This once-proud Eighth-tier Beast was now as helpless as a kitten, able only to let out low roars at the person before it.
“Oh?
Still have the energy to growl.”
The arrogant voice continued, belonging to a young man around twenty years old.
The young man punched directly into the wound on Zhuifeng’s back.
Overcome by pain, Zhuifeng roared again.
The proud beast tried to stand up several times, but collapsed back to the ground with each attempt.
Grief, despair, and deep resentment!
“A mere beast dares to roar at me?
If you weren’t so cute, I wouldn’t even bother taming you.
You only look like a Fourth-rank Beast anyway.
“Once you follow me, I can heal your injuries.
You’d best be smart and submit to me right now.
Stop waiting for your owner.
That useless trash couldn’t even treat your wounds, which proves he’s garbage.
Not to mention waiting for a piece of trash, even if the Heavenly King himself came, it would be useless!”
The young man remained arrogant, wildly conceited, and completely fearless!
“The Heavenly King might be useless, but your Grandpa Long isn’t!”
Longtian could no longer hold back.
Zhuifeng’s current state deeply pierced his heart.
How could his pet be abused like this by others?!
He cherished his pet too much to even scold it, so how could he allow someone else to beat it?!
Damn it, this kind of person had to die!
Longtian’s fury burned fiercely.
He threw the first punch of the Seven Luminaries Fiery Fire Fist.
Catching the young man entirely off guard, the heavy strike slammed squarely into his back.
BOOM!
With a muffled thud, the young man’s body crashed against the wall, leaving him instantly dizzy and disoriented.
However, the young man had a cultivation at the Sixth Level of Mortal Realm.
Even though the attack caught him off guard, it was not enough to seriously injure him.
“Who the hell sneak-attacked me?!” Sun Pao, having been suddenly assaulted, was thoroughly enraged.
“It’s your Grandpa Long!”
Longtian looked at Zhuifeng on the ground.
The more he looked, the more his heart ached, and the stronger the Killing Intent in his heart surged!
“Sixth Master…
this…
this…” Seeing it was Longtian, the shopkeeper was too shocked to speak.
Longtian gave the shopkeeper an indifferent glance.
“Get out.
I will handle things here myself.”
The shopkeeper sighed.
Knowing he couldn’t be of any help, he could only step out of the room.
“Sixth Master, please be careful.
Don’t do anything impulsive.”
“Longtian, it’s you, you useless coward.
I heard you defeated He Qingfeng and forced him to commit suicide.
But with your meager cultivation, don’t play tough in front of me.
Daring to sneak-attack me, you are courting death.
I advise you to stay out of my business and get the hell out of here.
I can’t be bothered to kill you.”
Contempt filled Sun Pao’s eyes.
It was obvious he felt it was beneath him to strike Longtian; his arrogance knew no bounds.
But Longtian let out a loud shout, “You might not kill your Grandpa Long, but Grandpa Long is going to kill you!”
His fury could not be extinguished, and his Killing Intent could not be contained.
“Three Luminaries Burning Eye!”
Aiming to instantly kill Sun Pao, Longtian directly unleashed the third punch.
“Fifth Level of Mortal Realm.”
As Longtian’s aura erupted, Sun Pao instantly saw through his cultivation.
However, that wasn’t what surprised him.
What truly shocked him was that Longtian was actually using the Seven Luminaries Fiery Fire Fist.
“Hmph, but this little bit of power isn’t enough to threaten me.
Celestial Killing Palm!”
It was also a Human-level Medium Martial Technique.
Although the momentum of Sun Pao’s martial skill wasn’t as strong as Longtian’s, his superior realm could make up for the disadvantage in technique.
Clearly, Sun Pao was much stronger than He Chao of the He Family.
The younger generation of the Sun Family indeed suppressed the younger generation of the He Family at every turn, whether in martial skills or cultivation.
BOOM!
Fist and palm collided.
Sun Pao’s body rapidly staggered backward, his face flushing violently, while Longtian only took three steps back.
“How is this possible?!” Sun Pao looked utterly bewildered.
His opponent was clearly only at the Fifth Level of Mortal Realm; how could he clash head-on without losing the upper hand?
“If this is the extent of your strength today, then go to hell!”
Longtian paid no mind to his opponent’s shock.
Since the third punch couldn’t defeat him, he would just have to throw the fourth.
“Seven Luminaries Fiery Fire Fist, Four Luminaries Eye Destruction!”
Four luminaries instantly materialized.
The intense, blinding light pierced outward like needles of radiance, threatening to destroy the enemy’s eyes.
Within the brilliance, the four luminaries linked together in position, seemingly fusing into a single entity.
The fourth punch of the Seven Luminaries Fiery Fire Fist was a qualitative leap.
He could connect the four clusters of light into one, drastically multiplying its power!
“Impossible, you actually mastered the fourth punch!
Bring it on!
Wind God Leg, Earth Hurricane!”
Greatly alarmed, Sun Pao had no choice but to use the first stance of the Sun Family’s inherited ultimate technique, the Wind God Leg.
With a sweeping kick, he struck toward Longtian.
The spiritual energy around his foot seemed to manifest into a hurricane.
In an instant, the howling winds surged with an imposing, overwhelming might.
In the blink of an eye, fist and foot collided, erupting with an earth-shattering boom.
The massive Qi Force sent tables and chairs flying and instantly shattered the wooden door into splinters.
PFFT.
Under the tremendous force, Longtian was sent flying backward, spewing a large mouthful of blood.
He was heavily injured!
So strong!
This was the power of a Human-level High-level Martial Technique.
Sun Pao’s cultivation and martial skills were both superior to Longtian’s; Longtian simply didn’t have the strength to fight back.
“Haha, I actually mastered the first stance of the Wind God Leg!
I learned it right in the middle of battle!”
Opposite him, although Sun Pao’s face was deathly pale, he was overjoyed.
He hadn’t expected that under the massive pressure of Longtian’s Four Luminaries Eye Destruction, he would actually cross the threshold into the Wind God Leg.
And he was only at the Sixth Level of Mortal Realm!
If word of this got out, it would be considered an absolute miracle.
After all, even Sun Jili only mastered the first stance of the Wind God Leg after stepping into the Eighth Layer.
“I’m a genius—a peerless genius!
What does Sun Jili count for compared to me?
Hahaha!
Longtian, since you helped me break through, I’ll spare your life.”
For a moment, Sun Pao felt as if he was invincible in this world.
However, Longtian ignored Sun Pao’s clamoring.
A white flower appeared in his hand—it was the Four-leaf Flower.
He carefully took a bite of the stem.
The stem melted in his mouth immediately, transforming into surging energy that instantly mended his wounds. Get faster updates on g.com.
A High-level Human-grade Spiritual Medicine really was a life-saving treasure for him at this moment.
“Don’t laugh too soon.
Save it for later.” The next moment, Longtian’s icy voice rang out.
Sun Pao gave Longtian a disdainful glance and was just about to mock him, telling him not to seek his own death, when he shockingly realized the entire room was growing blindingly bright again.
At the same time, under his terrified gaze, luminaries rapidly materialized one by one.
One, two, three, four, five…
finally reaching a total of six!
The six luminaries were connected to one another by lines of crimson spiritual energy, forming the shape of a ladle.
In the next instant, the six luminaries released an overwhelming brilliance.
Within this radiance, even the sun would lose its luster.
“Seven Luminaries Fiery Fire Fist, Six Luminaries Eyeless!”
Longtian’s voice sounded like a demon from hell.
For the first time, he revealed his true strength.
“This…
this is impossible!
Impossible!
Wind God Leg, Earth Hurricane!”
In his sheer panic, Sun Pao could only unleash his strongest Wind God Leg once more.
After executing this kick, his face drained completely of color.
He had reached his absolute limit; regardless of whether this strike defeated Longtian, he would lose all combat capability.
BOOM!
The ensuing noise was several times more violent than before.
The intense explosion caused the entire inn to tremble slightly, and Room Number One was instantly obliterated in the massive blast.
As fist and foot collided again, Longtian felt as though mountains were overturning and seas were churning within his body.
However, forcibly suppressing his injuries, he immediately threw himself in front of the Wind Chasing Leopard in the corner, shielding the beast beneath his body.
Severely wounded, Zhuifeng could not withstand such a violent Qi Force on its own.
WHOOSH!
The fierce winds lasted for a few seconds before gradually dissipating.
The entirety of Room Number One was left in absolute ruins, and Longtian’s clothes had been shredded to tatters by the gales.
Amidst the devastation, Sun Pao’s body lay collapsed on the ground, emitting low groans.
There was no trace of color left on his face, and his entire right leg was a mangled mess of blood and flesh.
If not treated quickly, it would be crippled permanently.
The power of the Seven Luminaries Fiery Fire Fist’s Six Luminaries Eyeless had already escalated to the level of a Human-level High-level Martial Technique.
Its might rivaled the second stance of the Wind God Leg.
Naturally, Sun Pao, who only knew the first stance, was no match.
In the corner, Longtian looked down at the pitiful Wind Chasing Leopard beneath him and gave a wide grin.
“It’s alright now.”
In that moment, the image of Longtian smiling at it with fresh blood lingering at the corner of his mouth was deeply etched into the Wind Chasing Leopard’s mind, never to be forgotten for the rest of its life.
“Swallow this petal, and we’ll go home.”
Longtian plucked the solitary remaining petal from the Four-leaf Flower and offered it to Zhuifeng’s lips.
The Wind Chasing Leopard swallowed the petal in one gulp.
The rich Heaven and Earth Energy quickly caused its wounds to scab over.
Only then did Longtian breathe a sigh of relief.
Carrying the Wind Chasing Leopard in his arms, he walked out of the ruined Room Number One.
As he reached the doorway, he paused and spoke in a cold, indifferent tone.
“I originally intended to kill you, but seeing as you had no killing intent toward me earlier, I will spare your life.
Also, I expect you to keep your mouth shut about me mastering the Six Luminaries.
I don’t want to draw unnecessary attention this early.
Though, I imagine you wouldn’t tell anyone anyway.
I bet you’d like to see the rest of the Sun Family suffer a bit at my hands too.”
Longtian had always believed in repaying favors with gratitude and grudges with vengeance.
If Sun Pao had wanted to kill him, he would already be a corpse right now, regardless of whether he was a member of the Sun Family or not.
Moreover, because of Sun San Niang, Longtian didn’t have the slightest bit of goodwill toward the Sun Family.
“Shopkeeper, the damages here will be compensated by the Sun Family’s Fourth Master.
If he refuses to pay, put it on my tab.”
Leaving these parting words for the shopkeeper, Longtian carried Zhuifeng and dashed out of the inn like the wind.
This place was no longer safe.
Although he could defeat Sun Pao, it didn’t mean he could defeat the other youths of the Sun Family.
He knew that, from this moment on, his feud with the Sun Family was firmly established.
