Chapter 636: An Apology? You Cannot Afford It.

Seeing that the two people did not reply, the Grand Elder could not help but frown, then looked toward Yu Xian.

When his gaze touched the seemingly ordinary aura around Yu Xian, his pupils contracted slightly. He had lived for several hundred years and seen countless Cultivators, yet he could not see through the depth of this young man before him.

There were only two possibilities: either the other party was a master who concealed his aura, or he was a Mortal with no cultivation whatsoever.

But being able to easily kill two Core Formation Early Stage Cultivators, the latter was clearly impossible.

“Who are you, Your Excellency? Why do you wish to be an enemy of my Dou Xie Sect?” The Grand Elder withdrew his contemptuous heart, his tone softening slightly, yet still carrying immense pressure.

Yu Xian glanced at him casually, not taking the Core Formation Middle Stage Cultivator seriously at all, and said nonchalantly, “Hand over your Storage Pouches, then scram quickly, and perhaps you might keep a dog’s life.”

“Arrogant! How dare a mere brat like you act presumptuously in front of the Grand Elder!” A Core Formation Early Stage Cultivator behind the Grand Elder could not help but roar in anger.

As he spoke, he summoned a Flying Sword flashing with green light and stabbed toward Yu Xian. The sword wind was fierce, carrying a foul, fishy odor.

Li Muwan’s expression shifted slightly, and she subconsciously wanted to remind Yu Xian to be careful, but she saw Yu Xian casually raise his hand.

An invisible barrier instantly appeared in front of him. That green light Flying Sword crashed into the barrier, like a clay ox entering the sea, failing to stir up even a ripple. Instead, it was shattered into pieces by a repulsive force, scattering fragments everywhere.

The Core Formation Early Stage Cultivator who attacked let out a miserable scream, was thrown backward by the rebound force, spitting blood, and smashed heavily against the distant mountain wall, his life or death unknown.

This move instantly shocked all the Dou Xie Sect Cultivators present.

The Grand Elder’s face became completely solemn. He knew he had kicked an iron plate this time; the young man before him was definitely a mighty Nascent Soul Stage expert!

He was inwardly terrified, not understanding why such a figure would suddenly appear in such a remote place, and that he would happen to clash with the Dou Xie Sect.

“Se… Senior! I wonder where our Dou Xie Sect has offended Senior? Please enlighten us, and our Dou Xie Sect will certainly offer an apology!” The Grand Elder no longer dared to show the slightest disrespect and quickly retracted his oppressive aura, respectfully cupping his hands.

All he wanted now was to smooth things over. A Nascent Soul Stage mighty expert was not someone their Dou Xie Sect could afford to provoke.

A cold sneer curled the corner of Yu Xian’s mouth. “An apology? You cannot afford it.”

As his voice fell, a vast pressure suddenly erupted from Yu Xian’s body, sweeping over the entire area like a tsunami.

That terrifying aura belonging to a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator crushed the remaining few Core Formation Cultivators so much that they could barely breathe, causing them to collapse onto the ground, their eyes filled with despair and fear.

Li Muwan stood beside Yu Xian, feeling the mountain-like heavy power emanating from him, and felt incomparably secure.

This battle had no suspense from the very beginning.

Yu Xian gave them no further chances. His figure flickered, and he darted between the few Core Formation Cultivators like a ghost.

Only a few muffled groans were heard. Those Dou Xie Sect Cultivators didn’t even have time to scream before their heads were separated from their bodies, their life force extinguished.

Seeing that the situation was bad, the Grand Elder turned to flee, but he was struck on the back by a finger pointed from afar by Yu Xian.

He only felt a terrifying spiritual power instantly invade his body, destroying his Meridians and Dantian. With a miserable cry, he fell from the sky, crashing onto the ground, completely lifeless.

Yu Xian waved his hand, hooking the Storage Pouches of those Core Formation Cultivators toward himself. After sweeping them with his Divine Thought, he directly handed them to Li Muwan.

It was just that he felt something strange in his heart; why didn’t he see the token for the Ten Thousand Demons Hundred Day Execution Order that the Grand Elder had issued against Wang Lin in the original plot? He had wanted to see the scene where a ‘Zhu’ character appeared above their heads.

What a pity…

“Young Master…” Li Muwan did not immediately accept it.

“There are quite a few things inside, take them,” Yu Xian said with a smile.

Li Muwan nodded, waved her hand, and several Storage Pouches entered her Storage Pouch.

The two previously injured Core Formation Cultivators saw the Grand Elder and the others killed so easily by Yu Xian, without even a chance to struggle, and were utterly terrified. But they were also secretly glad they hadn’t called for help earlier, or else they would be lying on the ground now too.

At this moment, they could only wait for Yu Xian’s command, not daring to make any rash moves.

“Let’s continue on our way,” Yu Xian’s voice sounded.

The two Cultivators immediately felt as if a great amnesty had been granted. They quickly hunched their bodies and increased their flying speed, not daring to look back even once.

Yu Xian didn’t even glance at the corpses on the ground. He took Li Muwan’s hand and continued flying toward the direction of the Dou Xie Sect headquarters.

“Young Master, you were so powerful just now,” Li Muwan said softly, her eyes flashing with adoration.

“Just some clowns, not worth mentioning. Soon, we will reach the Dou Xie Sect headquarters. By then, whatever Alchemy Materials or Magic Treasures you want, just pick them,” Yu Xian said with a slight smile.

Li Muwan softly hummed, filled with anticipation.

The Dou Xie Sect was a top-tier sect on the outer perimeter of the Demon Cultivation Sea, controlling the area around Nandou City, surviving by plundering and hunting others.

Its Sect Master, Xie Donglai, was Core Formation Middle Stage, and the Grand Elder, Qian Kun, was also Core Formation Middle Stage. They had 8 Core Formation Early Stage Elders and over ten thousand Disciples.

Now the Grand Elder was dead, and 4 Core Formation Elders were dead, with two leading the way for Yu Xian.

Tsk tsk, Yu Xian couldn’t help but sympathize with the Dou Xie Sect. Why did they have to rob him for no reason?

Not long after, Yu Xian and the three others arrived outside the Dou Xie Sect.

On the head of the coiled Dragon statue atop the Dou Xie Sect’s main peak, Xie Donglai was already standing with his hands behind his back, clearly knowing they were coming.

He must have known the moment the Grand Elder and the others died, which is why he was now fully prepared.

Yu Xian and the others confronted the Dou Xie Sect in mid-air.

Yu Xian glanced at the so-called Dou Long Formation, then turned to ask Li Muwan, “Wan’er, can you see the flaw in this Formation?”

Hearing this, Li Muwan knew Yu Xian was testing her recent studies. So, she did not answer immediately, but instead carefully observed the Formation surrounding the peak in mid-air.

She saw dragon shadows faintly churning amidst the flowing Formation patterns. Majestic Devilish Qi and Formation power intertwined, forming a seemingly indestructible barrier.

She concentrated for a moment and analyzed softly, “Using the Dragon-shaped peak as the Formation base for spiritual power conduction, 10 Core Formation Cultivators forming an auxiliary aerial sword Formation, and the Dragon Head as the spiritual power convergence center, which is the Formation Eye. As long as the Formation Eye is destroyed, this Formation will be instantly broken!”

Confidence flashed in Li Muwan’s eyes.

If it were before, with her attainment in Formations, it would have been impossible for her to figure out the principles of the Dou Long Formation so quickly. However, after studying the Ancient Formation Compendium along the way, and with Yu Xian’s guidance, her attainment in Formations was vastly different now.

She saw through this Dou Long Formation at a glance!

“Wan’er is truly amazing!” Yu Xian praised her without reservation.

Upon hearing this, Li Muwan’s face flushed slightly, lowering her head like a little girl who had received praise from her teacher, though undeniable joy shimmered in her eyes.
