Chapter 1081: Dazzling
The instant the silver needles flew towards Cai Tong, several experts from the Cai Clan shouted.
"Elder Cai, be careful!"
The silver needles were so fast that they could faintly hear the sound of rushing wind. The Cai Family experts wanted to rush forward, but they weren't fast enough to block the needles.
However, Cai Tong was no ordinary elder. He was an earth immortal, perhaps even a sky immortal.
His two fingers turned into lightning as he stretched forward. A silver needle appeared between his fingers.
"Hmph."
He flicked the needle at Ye Zichen, then smashed it with his palm. Then he looked at Cai Tong, his expression as calm as the wind.
The Cai Family experts were furious. Fortunately, the needles hadn't harmed Cai Tong. Otherwise, their heads would have been separated from their necks. Furthermore, this person had heavily injured several of their experts. The remaining experts immediately rushed forward.
"All of you, stop."
Cai Tong's voice was forceful, and he called for the surrounding experts to step back.
"What is the meaning of this, Your Excellency? This old man has no grudge against you, so why did you use a hidden weapon on me? Could it be that you were sent here by one of the Profound Great District's clans? "
His murky eyes were filled with faint dignity. Ye Zichen couldn't help but sneer.
This old man really knew how to put on an act!
Ye Zichen chuckled and patted Wu Di on the shoulder, then shrugged in confusion.
"Are you all deaf? Didn't you hear Wu Di call me 'Master'? Look at all of you. It's like you want to eat me alive. What are you doing? Are you trying to scare me? "
Ye Zichen rolled his eyes at Elder Cai and the others, then laughed.
"Just now, I was treating my disciple's injuries. He told me he'd run out of spiritual energy. I've cultivated for so many years, but this is the first time I've encountered something like this, so I checked his body. I never would have guessed that I'd find a needle sticking right into his spiritual sea. "
The expressions of the surrounding clans changed. There were needles in his spiritual sea? Someone had obviously done this on purpose.
A cultivator's spiritual sea was the weakest. The slightest mistake could cause it to collapse, and they'd become an ordinary person. Sharp weapons like needles were even more dangerous to a cultivator's spiritual sea.
Even if Wu Di and Ye Zichen wanted to plot against Cai Tong, there was no need for them to take such a huge risk.
Furthermore, given the strength Ye Zichen had just displayed, there was no need for him to assassinate Cai Tong.
Cai Tong's expression froze after hearing this. Soon after, he withdrew his expression, narrowed his eyes and softly laughed.
"Then it seems like all of this is a misunderstanding. I wonder who would be so bold as to play tricks at this time."
"Who knows? There will always be shameless people. In particular, there were some old farts who put on a sage-like appearance, but behind their backs, they were playing despicable tricks. Hey, old man … don't you think it's better for these old farts to die without descendants? "
Ye Zichen gestured at Cai Tong, his face filled with resentment, as if he wanted his colleague's approval.
The corners of Cai Tong's mouth twitched as he chuckled.
"This kind of behavior is indeed despicable, but ending the line of descendants is a bit too vicious."
"Hey, old man, you really have a good heart. It seems that you must be an old man of virtue and prestige."
Cai Tong pursed his lips into a smile. Ye Zichen ignored him and turned to Wu Di.
"My precious apprentice, why don't you give it a try? Your spiritual power should be back."
Wu Di didn't doubt his words. He silently recited the incantation. With a bang, boundless spiritual power surged out of his body.
The Spiritual Energy turned into waves of Qi that blew at the younger generation in the Martial Arts Practice Field, making it hard for them to open their eyes.
"Peak entering immortality!"
Wu Wenguang slapped the table, his eyes filled with undisguised excitement. The spectating family clans, including the peak powers, were all astonished.
"Family Head Wu, this kid …."
Asked an attendant of the Skyspan Trading Company in astonishment. Wu Wenguang smiled, his face flushed.
"Twenty-five."
The other two family heads were astonished. A twenty-five-year-old peak entering immortality? And this wasn't like Wu Qiang's, who'd used pills to forcibly raise his cultivation.
"His talent is monstrous."
The attendant and secret agent of the Skyspan Trading Company cupped their hands and congratulated Wu Di.
"Congratulations, Family Head Wu, on obtaining a qilin son."
A qilin son represented the glory of a family's younger generation for a thousand years. He'd reached the peak of entering immortality at twenty-five. If nothing unexpected happened, he'd definitely become an earth immortal or even a sky immortal within a hundred years.
Although such a monstrous existence hadn't matured yet, it was enough to intimidate the other families.
"Brother Wu, congratulations."
Even the Liu and Wang Families had no choice but to offer their congratulations. Although their families had deep foundations, now that the Wu Family had a qilin son and was about to form a marriage alliance with the Profound Great District's Cai Family, the Wu Family would most likely become the largest family in Raging Flame City in the next thousand years.
"Hahaha, congratulations to you too!"
Wu Wenguang laughed heartily. He never would have guessed that Wu Di was so talented. Since he'd displayed such shocking talent, returning to the clan wouldn't be difficult.
Even if Li Na tried to stop him, the clan elders would likely object.
The champion of the competition had even been awarded a condensing immortal pill. If Wu Di obtained it, he'd likely become a human immortal in no time.
A twenty-five-year-old human immortal might even become a sky immortal within a hundred years.
This was a joyous occasion that would bring glory to the family!
Li Na's expression was unsightly. She'd thought that vile spawn Wu Di and his master would die here, but her master was far more powerful than she'd imagined. Wu Di, that vile spawn, had even displayed such shocking talent.
If he was allowed to return to the clan, the position of family head would very likely fall to him.
If that happened, the Li Family's years of planning would all go to waste!
He glanced off into the distance, only to see one of the clan elders shake his head. The Li Family naturally didn't want Wu Di to return, but the current situation was beyond their control. They could only wait for an opportunity to get rid of him in the future.
"Peak entering immortality!"
The Wu Family's younger generation stared in astonishment at Wu Di's majestic aura. Although there were entering immortality cultivators among them, Wu Qiang was even at the mid stage.
It seemed like he was only a single step away, but in reality, it was a vast gulf between heaven and earth.
"How is this possible?!"
Wu Qiang clenched his fists and gnashed his teeth. The condensing immortal pill was supposed to be his, but Wu Di, whom he'd never even looked at properly, had actually ….
"Interesting."
In comparison, Wu Hai was much more indifferent. Even without Wu Di, the pill wouldn't have fallen into his hands. Now that Wu Di had stolen Wu Qiang's pill, he was naturally happy to see it happen.
"It seems I need to get in touch with Wu Di!"
