Everyone in the square looked at each other. Someone had actually dared to openly provoke the Baili Sect Sect Leader, Yang Gongcheng. As the top expert of the Taihang Mountains, and now that he had broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm, Yang Gongcheng had a rather high deterrent force among the ancient martial art practitioners of the Taihang Mountains.
Disregarding everything else, if he had not been forced into a corner, Xie Rengui would definitely not have fallen out with Yang Gongcheng so easily.
Now, a mysterious person of unknown origin had actually dared to provoke Yang Gongcheng in public. Furthermore, he had a contemptuous look on his face. This was in stark contrast to Xie Rengui's previous cowardice.
Everyone wanted the Dragon City Talisman in the hands of the mysterious shadow. No one could resist the temptation of a precious treasure. Yang Gongcheng believed that he had the ability to snatch the Dragon City Talisman. His heart was burning, and he could not hold it in any longer. Moreover, it was under the circumstance that he was provoked in public.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Since you have delivered yourself to my doorstep, I will kindly accept it."
Even though Yang Gongcheng was wary of the mysterious shadow, he could not show any signs of weakness at this time. Furthermore, he might not necessarily be weaker than this mysterious person. Only a battle would determine who was stronger and who was weaker.
Yang Gongcheng took a step forward and made the first move. In a battle between experts, victory or defeat was decided in an instant. Those who had the initiative usually had a higher chance of winning.
However, no one had expected that Yang Gongcheng would make the first move. Before he had even appeared in front of the mysterious shadow, a terrifying aura swept out.
A terrifying pressure instantly erupted from the mysterious shadow's body like heavenly might. Like a surging wave, it sent Yang Gongcheng flying.
The battle had actually ended before it had even begun.
Yang Gongcheng could not even withstand the mysterious shadow's pressure. It was simply a one-sided suppression. There was no comparison at all.
As for the mysterious shadow, it was still standing in its original spot. It had not moved at all from the beginning to the end.
In the square, everyone seemed to have been petrified. They stood stiffly on the spot. That terrifying aura had only lasted for a moment. However, they felt as if they had just returned from the gates of hell. Their entire bodies were cold and stiff. They were so scared that they did not dare to move.
That aura was too terrifying!
It was not just the ordinary ancient martial art practitioners. Even Xie Rengui, Yun Pengqing, and the other Sect Grand Elders were so scared that their faces turned pale. their legs felt like jelly. They could not even stand stably.
Yun Pengqing had felt the mysterious shadow's pressure before, but it had not been this terrifying. He felt that just by relying on the pressure alone, he would be able to defeat Qin Wentian. It was enough to kill him a thousand times over.
Cheng Zongping almost fell to the ground. His face was deathly pale, and he was drenched in cold sweat. He realized that the situation was far from good. Only now did he realize that the mysterious man had not used his full strength that day.
Wan 'er and Wang Qian, who were tied to the crosses, widened their eyes. They did not feel the terrifying aura. Instead, it was like a spring breeze brushing past their faces. It was exceptionally warm. Judging from the expressions and demeanor of the people around him, it was clear that this was not the case.
They knew that mysterious shadow, but they had never thought about it. He actually appeared again!
"Wan 'er, could that mysterious person be your relative?" Wang Qian licked her bloodstained lips, and her eyes gradually brightened. She had originally been in despair, but at that moment, a strong sense of hope was injected into her body. She could instinctively sense that the mysterious person was here to save them.
Very few people could experience the feeling of being rescued from a hopeless situation. Wang Qian felt it the most. Moreover, she was still tied to the cross. No one could understand the desolation in her heart.
Wang Qian was very suspicious of the mysterious man who came to her rescue both times when she was in trouble. Whether the mysterious man's appearance had anything to do with Wan 'er, because it was impossible for her to contact such a person.
"I don't think I have any relatives …" Wan 'er lowered her head as if she wanted to hide the wounds on her face. The blood at the corner of her mouth tasted bitter, but her heart was even more bitter. She regretted not listening to Wang Qian back then. He had kept the secret of the Dragon City Talisman a secret. Otherwise, he would not have ended up like this.
Everything was caused by the Dragon City Talisman. Sister Wang Qian was also harmed by her. Thinking about it, Wan'er could not help but cry.
"Wan 'er, this isn't your fault. Even without your suggestion, I would have definitely told them about the Dragon City Talisman. After all, it's useless for either of us to hold onto the talisman. In the end, we wouldn't have been able to stop ourselves from saying it. In reality, what you did was not wrong. The sect did not make things difficult for us. However, who knew that the Baili Sect would be so shameless? "
Wang Qian knew what Wan-er was thinking and could not help but comfort her in a low voice. In reality, even if they did not say it for a while, they could not keep it a secret forever. This was because the Dragon City Talisman was no different from waste paper in their hands. They would have to take it out sooner or later.
"Wan 'er, don't be sad. That mysterious man has appeared again. He must have come to save us. Perhaps he has come to save you. You will definitely be fine. "
Wang Qian did not know how to comfort Wan-er, so she could only change the topic.
"But I don't even know him," Wan-er said as she shook her head.
"Even if you don't know him, it might not be because of you. You are usually so kind and have done so many good deeds. Perhaps you have helped others in the past, and now they have come to repay you. "
When Wang Qian said this, she did not really believe it herself. It was because even if Wan-er wanted to do good deeds against such a terrifying person, she would not have the chance.
Wan-er was simple-minded. She blinked her large eyes twice and subconsciously thought of Big Brother Mo. However, she became more and more confused. She was not very sure. Big Brother Mo could not be so powerful. He was a strong practitioner who was much more powerful than the sect leader.
Xie Rengui and Yun Pengqing looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. They had seen much more than ordinary ancient martial art practitioners. Hence, they understood how terrifying this mysterious man was. He could injure an ancient martial art practitioner in the Golden Elixir Realm with just his aura. What level of cultivation was that?
"The Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. Only the legendary Martial Arts Grandmasters can do that."
Xie Rengui said slowly. His cultivation was not very high. He was not even in the Golden Elixir Realm, much less the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. However, as a sect leader, his knowledge and experience were extraordinary. He knew a little about strong practitioners at the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. According to legend, once one cultivated to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm, the pressure they released could form a terrifying, formless energy. That power was called power.
In other words, only strong practitioners of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm truly knew what was called power. They had mastered the offensive power of pressure. Ordinary ancient martial art practitioners could at most use their own aura to cause psychological damage to their opponents. The damage they could do to their bodies was almost zero.
Yun Pengqing's lips twitched. His eyes were filled with passion. As an ancient martial art practitioner, who did not have fantasies about the legendary pinnacle of ancient martial art practitioners and the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm? However, that dream was too far away. He would never be able to realize it.
The terrifying aura was like a storm that swept past.
Yang Gongcheng's figure was thrown into the air. With a rumble, he crashed into a stone pillar at the edge of the square. The stone pillar shattered and his organs were injured. His Qi and blood flowed backward and he spat out a large mouthful of blood. He clutched his chest with one hand and looked at Mo Wen as though he had seen a ghost.
How was it possible? He did not dare to believe that he had actually encountered such a terrifying strong practitioner.
"You have just broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm and you are already so arrogant and despotic. If you become an immortal ancient martial art practitioner, you will break through the heavens."
The mysterious shadow looked coldly at Yang Gongcheng. His silhouette appeared in front of Yang Gongcheng without a sound. The process did not seem to happen at all. No one knew how the shadow had appeared in front of Yang Gongcheng.
"What are you trying to do? Don't touch me. There's someone behind me …"
Yang Gongcheng finally felt afraid. He looked at Mo Wen with a terrified expression. He wanted to escape, but he suddenly discovered that a formless pressure was suppressing his body, making it difficult for him to move. Right now, he had already realized that he had encountered a very, very terrifying person … Martial Arts Grandmaster cultivation. This mysterious shadow was actually a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Originally, Yang Gongcheng did not have much of a concept of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. After all, ancient martial art practitioners of this level were too far away. It was almost impossible for him to come into contact with them. Fortunately, he had come into contact with a Martial Arts Circle Convention not long ago. That terrifying feeling was exactly the same as the mysterious shadow's.
Even in his dreams, he had never imagined that he would actually provoke such a terrifying person. If he had known earlier, he would not have dared to take out a hundred Dragon City Talismans, let alone Dragon City Talismans.
No matter how precious the Dragon City Talismans were, could they be more precious than his life?
"Whoever is behind you must die." The mysterious shadow laughed coldly. He raised his palm slightly and Yang Gongcheng's body flew up. He could not resist at all and directly landed in Mo Wen's hand.
"What are you trying to do? I also have a Martial Arts Grandmaster behind me. Don't do anything rash. If you dare to kill me, there will definitely be people who will seek revenge on you." Yang Gongcheng's body trembled. His gaze was completely flustered.
"I don't want to do anything. I just want to confirm whether or not you stole something from me."
As he spoke, the mysterious shadow took out a silver ingot from his clothes and slowly placed it into Yang Gongcheng's shirt pocket. Everyone in the square saw this action. However, what no one expected was that after the mysterious shadow put the silver ingot in, he extended his hand and took out the silver ingot from Yang Gongcheng's pocket. He pretended to be surprised and said, "Aiyo, you stole my silver. I found it in your pocket. You actually dared to steal something from me. Are you tired of living? Tell me, did you steal it? If you confess, you will be lenient. If you resist, you will be severely punished. If you dare not admit it, I will make your life a living hell. "
The mysterious shadow held Yang Gongcheng's body with one hand as he asked in a serious tone. He held up the silver ingot in his hand as though he was saying that this was stolen goods. Now that he was caught red-handed, he should confess.
Everyone in the square was petrified where they stood. Before this, they had been shocked by the mysterious shadow's aura. Now, they were stunned by the scene before them. Something like this could actually happen. Before this, everyone had clearly seen that the mysterious shadow had clearly put the silver ingot into Yang Gongcheng's pocket. Now that he had taken it out again, Yang Gongcheng had become a thief. Moreover, he had been caught red-handed.
Such a scene caused everyone to think of what had happened to Su Wan 'er and Wang Qian. One could easily find a way to frame someone. Now that Yang Gongcheng had also received such treatment, it could only be said that retribution had come too quickly. (To be continued.)
