Chapter 384 Recognized by Wang Ying (Including Alliance Leader Event Plan)

As a will nurtured by civilized society, Zhang Xuan was always reluctant to resort to violence if other solutions were available.

But now, it seemed that approach wouldn't work anymore!

In that case, there was no need to be polite.

Wasn't the Lin family so arrogant?

Didn't they look down on everyone in the Tianwu Kingdom?

Fine then, I'll beat you until you submit, until you understand...

In this world, there are some people... you cannot afford to offend!

"Peak Grandmaster?"

"President Liu is actually a peak Grandmaster?"

"No wonder... he dares to confront the Lin family head-on, crippling Lin Hu with a single collision. With such strength, he indeed has the capital to be arrogant!"

...

Feeling the aura emanating from him, everyone shuddered.

So the initial manifestation of early Tongxuan realm was just an illusion; his true strength was peak Grandmaster!

With such strength, even in the Tianwu Kingdom, he would definitely rank among the top!

"He... he..."

Mo Yu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Others didn't know President Liu's identity; even if shocked, they weren't too astonished. After all, reaching peak Grandmaster at the age of twenty-four or twenty-five, even for a genius, wasn't enough to leave everyone dumbfounded!

But... she knew his identity.

Zhang Xuan!

He had only broken through to Grandmaster a few days ago, and in just six or seven days, he had reached the peak?

Every minor advancement in the Grandmaster realm required a lot of time; even for a genius, going from early stage to peak without several years was very difficult. A few days...

She felt as if she were in a daze, about to go mad.

Most crucially... he was also a three-star or even higher alchemist, physician, calligrapher and painter, two-star beast tamer, two-star master teacher...

She had thought his cultivation was the weakest, but unexpectedly, it was also this formidable... Mo Yu felt she was going insane.

No wonder he looked down on her; with such cultivation and talent... the world he faced must be much broader, so it was normal for him to disdain her.

"Teacher Liu... is a peak Grandmaster? Even more powerful than Teacher Zhang?" Zhao Ya and the others looked at each other in astonishment.

Back then, when he broke her sword with a finger, she knew his strength was not weak, but she never imagined it would be so terrifying.

Teacher Zhang was only an early Grandmaster, while he was at the peak...

Even more powerful than Teacher Zhang, no wonder he could attract Mu Xueqing and others to defend him everywhere; he indeed had such capital.

...

"Peak Grandmaster? With such strength at this age, it's indeed not weak, but it's still not enough capital for your arrogance. Clan leader, please allow me to kill him!"

As Zhang Xuan revealed his strength, the Lin family members were also startled. An old man stepped forward, his eyes like knives, cold and frosty.

"It's the Lin family's Second Elder, Lin Xie!"

"A peak Grandmaster, only one step away from Half-Step Supreme!"

"Ranked fourth among the kingdom's top ten martial artists!"

"If he makes a move, I'm afraid Teacher Liu will be in trouble..."

...

Everyone's pupils contracted again.

Although Lin Hu was formidable, he was still far inferior to the ten martial artists of the kingdom.

These ten individuals had stood out among countless peak Grandmasters and could be considered at the very top... And this man ranked fourth among them!

His strength could no longer be described as merely terrifying.

Not to mention others, even the Third Elder, whom Zhang Xuan had kicked into a eunuch earlier, was far inferior compared to him.

"Alright, be careful!"

Lin Ruotian nodded.

As the head of the Lin family, he had to maintain his status and dignity. Although this Liu Cheng was not weak, he was still far from being worthy of Lin Ruotian's personal intervention.

Of course, letting the Second Elder make a move would also allow him to see what cards and backing the other party had, enabling him to take precautions in advance.

"Don't worry, it's a done deal!"

Waving his hand grandly, the Second Elder, Lin Xie, came before Zhang Xuan with an air of condescension: "Boy, make your move. I want to see what ability you have to speak arrogantly here and lay hands on my Lin family!"

"You?"

Unfazed by the provocation, Zhang Xuan shook his head: "You alone won't do. You'd better all come at once!"

Since he had come to vent Lu Chong's grievances and had already revealed his cultivation, he was too lazy to hide any longer.

With his strength, he was definitely unmatched among peak Grandmasters. No matter how powerful this Second Elder was, he surely couldn't withstand him.

"If you want us to come together, you'll have to see if you can get past me first..."

Unexpectedly being so belittled by the other party despite being the kingdom's fourth-ranked expert, Lin Xie's face darkened. Without further ado, he grabbed the air with his palm and chopped down straight.

"It's Elder Lin Xie's most powerful [Great Splitting Palm]!"

"Many experts have been defeated by this move. I didn't expect him to use it right away!"

"He has no choice. This President Liu defeated Elder Lin Hu with a single move; he must have felt the pressure too, so he's going straight for his strongest technique!"

"Let's see how President Liu deals with it..."

...

Seeing Elder Lin Xie's attack, everyone's expressions turned serious.

Lin Hu from earlier was strong, but that was relative. Compared to this Lin Xie, he was far too inferior.

Such an expert, without any hint of underestimating his opponent, unleashed his strongest move right from the start. Even if it were the first and second ranked, Mo Tianxue and Emperor Mo Hongyi, they would have to handle it carefully and not dare to be careless.

"Although Elder Lin Xie is famous for the Great Splitting Palm, that move is just a feint. His more formidable technique is the [Ghostly Chain Kick]!"

Mo Tianxue, standing at the side, looked grave.

"Ghostly Chain Kick?" Mo Yu was startled.

"Yes, the Great Splitting Palm attacks from above, suppressing all directions, shaking heaven and earth, forcing one to defend. It looks ferocious, but in reality, it's meant to conceal the attack from below!"

Mo Tianxue explained: "It's a chain technique, extremely insidious. I once sparred with him and almost fell for it!"

The Great Splitting Palm comes from above, while the Ghostly Chain Kick comes from below. The two are opposite; the former maximizes momentum to mask the latter's movement.

Without preparation or prior knowledge, even if one's strength surpasses the opponent's, it's hard to defend against.

"Then... isn't President Liu in great danger?"

Mo Yu furrowed her delicate brows, showing anxiety.

Father's strength ranks first among the ten strongest in the kingdom, and even he almost suffered a loss. Isn't Zhang Xuan in great danger? (The ten strongest in the kingdom only rank at the peak of Grandmaster; Lin Ruotian has reached half-step Supreme, so he is not included.)

"It is somewhat dangerous. It depends on whether he can react in time and prevent it in advance. But in my opinion, it's very difficult! This move is not easy to guard against... Holy crap!"

Recalling the terror of this move, Mo Tianxue shook his head, not believing that this President Liu could dodge it. Before he could finish his sentence, he wanted to see how President Liu would handle it, but suddenly froze, almost going crazy on the spot: "This... what's going on?"

Mo Yu also hurriedly looked, and upon seeing it, she too stood frozen, her mind unable to process.

They saw that Elder Lin Xie's ferocious Big Splitting Palm hadn't even reached Zhang Xuan when it was kicked away. Now he was lying on the ground convulsing, his outcome exactly the same as... Third Elder before...

A certain special part... exploded!

Kicked and... exploded! Without even a chance to dodge...

How did he do it?

After all, the opponent was a powerhouse ranked fourth among the kingdom's Grandmaster peaks!

The other onlookers, seeing this scene, also felt a chill down their backs, a cold draft in their crotches, breaking out in cold sweat.

They had clearly heard the sound of eggs breaking just now, and estimated that this Elder Lin Xie, renowned throughout the kingdom, was completely ruined... no longer of any use!

"I told you it wouldn't work, but you wouldn't listen..."

Ignoring the crowd's shock, Zhang Xuan shook his head.

The opponent's Big Splitting Palm followed the leg movement, insidious to the extreme. For anyone else, it would indeed be impossible to dodge, but he possessed the Eye of Insight. Before the move even started, he had already seen through it and kicked in advance.

Not to mention that his strength was already inferior; even if they were equal, how could he block a preemptive strike?

"Is this... the Heavenly Dao Leg Technique?"

Wang Ying was stunned.

When her teacher had taught her the leg technique, he had asked her to name it, but in the end, she didn't dare. According to the teacher, it was called the Heavenly Dao Leg Technique.

This leg technique was created by her teacher and taught only to her. How could... this Teacher Liu use it?

"What's wrong, Wang Ying? What did you say?"

Hearing her mutter, Zhao Ya looked over.

"N-nothing..."

Blushing, Wang Ying quickly shook her head.

That move by Teacher Liu just now was too fast. She only thought it looked similar, but wasn't sure... When Zhao Ya asked, she didn't dare to say.

"Since you're unwilling to attack together, then I'll make my move..."

Seeing that everyone was intimidated by his single move, Zhang Xuan snorted lightly, his body flickering as he plunged into the crowd.

His speed was so fast it seemed like teleportation. Before the many elders could see clearly, he was already in front of them.

Bang bang bang bang!

The sounds of fists hitting flesh and palms slapping faces rang out, followed by continuous screams.

Before Lin Ruotian could react, he saw more than a dozen elders beside him fly into the air almost simultaneously, some lying flat, some convulsing, none able to stand again.

"Heavenly Dao... Body Movement?"

This time, she clearly saw the movements of this Teacher Liu, and Wang Ying's breathing quickened, her pretty face flushed.

If the Heavenly Dao Leg Technique just now was still uncertain, this body movement was definitely the Heavenly Dao Body Movement without any doubt!

Why does this Teacher Liu know... the Heavenly Dao Body Movement created by Teacher Zhang?

Could it be...

Her heart stirred, thinking of a possibility, her delicate body trembled, and Wang Ying's face turned pale.

After Teacher Zhang's trial... Teacher Liu appeared!

After Teacher Liu appeared, Teacher Zhang was never seen again...

I always thought what the Master Hall said was right, that he must have gone on some trial... Could it be that he turned into Teacher Liu and went to teach at Tianwu Academy?

If that's the case... is Mu Xueqing also his student?

Zhao Ya and Mu Xueqing's sparring...

No wonder he stopped the two from fighting that day, saying 'Nonsense.' He must have been unhappy seeing us fight... It wasn't oppression as a teacher!

Her whole body went cold.

"Poisoning..."

Thinking of this, she recalled running over with Yuan Tao and the others to poison him, and her face twitched, on the verge of tears.

If this Teacher Liu really is Teacher Zhang, then they had specifically gone to poison him...

It was simply unforgivable!

What a mess...

She had actually followed Yuan Tao and the others in their foolishness, going to poison Teacher Zhang...

She didn't even know if the poison had taken effect. If he was truly poisoned, how could she ever face her teacher again?

The teacher was devoted to them, yet they were thinking of how to kill him...

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing her face alternating between red and white, twisted in expression, Zhao Ya looked over again.

"Nothing..."

She wanted to voice her guess, but hesitated, then Wang Ying closed her mouth tightly.

If she spoke out, what would happen to Zhao Ya and Yuan Tao? How would they face it?

For a moment, she was filled with anxiety, not knowing what to do.

"Teacher..."

While Wang Ying was at a loss, Lu Chong behind Zhang Xuan widened his eyes, about to go mad.

Seeing the teacher kick the Third Elder away with one blow, he knew he must be formidable, at least stronger than himself...

But he never dreamed he would be this formidable!

In less than two breaths, he had knocked down all the Lin family's dozen elders, leaving them lying on the ground, their fate unknown...

How did he manage to do it?

Even a half-step Supreme wouldn't be able to do that!

If he had known he was this formidable and didn't care about the Lin family at all, why would he have bothered to conceal it... He would have said so long ago!

"You, you..."

He was shocked beyond words, and Lin Ruotian on the side was about to go mad.

The reason the Lin family dominated Tianwu King City was not only because of him, but more importantly, these elders, each capable of handling matters on their own!

He had thought that since he was just a peak Grandmaster, the others could handle him without his intervention. How could he have imagined that in the blink of an eye, all the elders he had brought were lying on the ground, some crippled, some injured...

Is this for real?

"Liu Cheng, prepare to die!"

With a roar, Lin Ruotian could no longer hold back. He flipped his palm and struck down at Zhang Xuan before him.
