When Lin Xuan went shopping, he didn't bring too many people with him. He only brought Mu Qingxue and Maki Cangsheng with him. As for the others, they were all scattered to carry out missions.
However, the three of them didn't hide their cultivation. One of them was at the late level of the Heavenly Transformation Realm, while the other two were at the mid level of the Heavenly Transformation Realm. With the three of them together, no one would dare to cause trouble for them.
After all, Heavenly Transformation Realm experts were already considered experts in the True Martial Realm. They were enough to intimidate anyone.
However, Lin Xuan didn't expect to be targeted not long after they went shopping. Moreover, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the reason. It was because of Mu Qingxue's beauty.
The large, dark-faced man in front of them rushed over with a few subordinates. The large man's eyes flashed with an unconcealable lustful light as he quietly sized up Mu Qingxue.
When he got closer, the large man finally shifted his gaze from Mu Qingxue to Lin Xuan. He could also see that Lin Xuan was the leader of the three.
He grinned and cupped his hands in greeting, "Friend, I am Qi Peng, the leader of the Sky Snake Gang. I have always liked to make friends with brothers from all over the world. May I ask where you three are from? What business do you have in Four Corner City? If you haven't found a place to stay, you can come to our Sky Snake Gang as guests. I am very willing to play host to you. "
Lin Xuan had long been annoyed by this fellow. When he heard this insincere offer, his eyes immediately turned cold. He coldly spat out a word, "Scram!"
"What! You dare tell our gang leader to scram? You deserve to die! "
"How dare you! Who are you to not put our Sky Snake Gang in your eyes?! "
When he heard Lin Xuan say 'scram', Qi Peng's face couldn't help but darken. The four subordinates behind him were even more furious. They all rubbed their fists, wanting nothing more than to immediately rush over and kill Lin Xuan.
Qi Peng gently raised his hand and stopped his subordinates from cursing. He gloomily looked at Lin Xuan, "Brat, you must have just arrived in Four Corner City, right? Why don't you ask around about me? "
Lin Xuan coldly interrupted him, "I'll give you three breaths of time to disappear from my sight, or you'll have to bear the consequences."
"Ha!"
Qi Peng couldn't help but laugh in anger.
He himself was also a powerful late-stage Heavenly Transformation Realm expert. As the leader of the Sky Snake Gang, he had many experts under him. He also had a powerful background behind him. In this Four Corner City, it could be said that he could get whatever he wanted. Other than the few large gangs in the city, he really didn't fear anyone.
As for those powerful people who had crossed the river, the number of people who had died at his hands in the past few years had already exceeded three digits. After all, the Sky Snake Gang was originally a gang that relied on robbing passersby. Normally, their biggest source of income came from robbing unfamiliar martial artists who passed by Four Corner City.
At this moment, Qi Peng hated Lin Xuan for humiliating him. He couldn't wait to kill Lin Xuan and carry that little beauty home.
However, he was usually quite cautious. Before he figured out the other party's strength, he didn't plan to completely turn hostile.
He forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a smile, "Brother, since you don't give my Sky Snake Gang any face, you must be quite skilled. This Qi is untalented, but I would like to ask for some pointers from you. Please enlighten me! "
Boom!
The moment he finished speaking, Qi Peng's body shook and released the aura of a late-stage Heavenly Transformation Realm expert. At the same time, he took a step forward and formed a claw with his hands, waving five silver arcs of wind at Lin Xuan.
The five claw winds cut through the void, and the sound of them breaking through the air could shatter one's eardrums. The momentum was quite shocking.
This move was just a test. If Lin Xuan couldn't even handle this move, Qi Peng would definitely follow up with a thunderous attack.
Unfortunately, Qi Peng still underestimated Lin Xuan. He regretted it the moment he made his move.
At the same time as Qi Peng made his move, Lin Xuan also made his move. He sneered and instantly took a step forward, throwing a punch across the air!
This punch seemed ordinary, but it contained the power of All Creations. As the fist was pushed forward, the void in front of it exploded.
The ferocious force easily dispelled the five claw winds. Then, it rushed towards Qi Peng and his subordinates like a tsunami.
Boom!
There was a loud noise.
Qi Peng and his companions didn't even have time to react before they were sent flying by the huge force. Even the ground beneath their feet was scraped up.
They felt as if they had been hit by a mountain, and they were sent flying back involuntarily. They flew along the street until they reached a street corner a thousand meters away, and crashed into a restaurant.
Qi Peng's four Divine Astral Realm subordinates all had their bones broken and their internal organs crushed. The moment they fell to the ground, they stopped breathing.
Qi Peng didn't die, but he was in a very sorry state. His Vital Spirit shield was shattered, and countless bones in his body were broken. He coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.
At this moment, he was extremely shocked.
He found it hard to believe that this kid was so strong even though they were both late-stage Heavenly Transformation Realm cultivators.
Although his claw attack just now was just a test and he didn't use his full strength, he knew very well that even if he used all his strength, he wouldn't be able to block that punch.
He climbed up from the ruins shakily and looked at Lin Xuan in horror. He knew that he had bitten off more than he could chew. He didn't even dare to say a word and turned to run in the other direction, staggering.
However, he hadn't run far when he discovered in panic that two calm and unruffled Heavenly Transformation Stage experts were blocking his path, looking at him with smiles on their faces.
"You — cough cough! Who are you? What do you want? "
Qi Peng coughed up a mouthful of blood and looked warily at the two unfamiliar warriors in front of him.
"Qi Peng, our sect master wants to treat you to a meal!"
Wu Huan walked forward with a cold smile and threw a punch at Qi Peng's head.
"I don't know you —"
Bang!
There was a loud explosion!
Qi Peng's head took a heavy blow and his entire body flew across the ground. When he stopped, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
Wu Huan walked forward and dragged Qi Peng, who was like a dead dog, into the alley.
After being disturbed by Qi Peng, Lin Xuan lost his mood to shop and brought Mu Qingxue and Maki Cangsheng to the Divine Lotus Path's stronghold in the city.
In the past ten years, the Divine Lotus Path had set up countless strongholds in the hundreds of cities in the world. As the largest city in the Shuo Region, Four Corner City was naturally not an exception.
The Divine Lotus Path had set up a stronghold in Four Corner City seven years ago.
There weren't many people in this stronghold, only four Divine Astral Realm cultivators and fifty-two True Energy Realm cultivators. The rest were all Atman Body Realm cultivators.
The stronghold was set up in the Heng Sheng Inn in the South City District. It was close to the South City Gate and occupied an area of about seven to eight acres.
The leader of the stronghold, Du Damao, was very low-key. He never participated in the disputes in Four Corner City and only developed his forces in secret. In the past few years, he didn't attract the attention of other forces.
Lin Xuan's arrival caused a huge commotion. Du Damao quickly led his subordinates out to welcome him.
"Shuo Region's Four Corner City's Division Leader Du Damao and his subordinates welcome the Sect Leader!"
"Welcome, Sect Leader!"
Du Damao and his subordinates all knelt on the ground, looking at Lin Xuan with eyes full of endless respect and fear.
"Division Leader Du, you've worked hard. Get up!"
Lin Xuan nodded calmly.
"Thank you, Sect Leader! Sect Leader, please come in! "
Du Damao got Lin Xuan's approval and couldn't help but feel excited. He quickly got up and led the way for Lin Xuan.
In the past ten years, the North Barren was constantly fighting. Du Damao was tired of the bitter days in the North Barren, so he asked to come to the Shuo Region to establish a stronghold.
The first three years in the Shuo Prefecture were relatively easy. After all, the Shuo Prefecture was one of the six prefectures under King Huan. Back then, in exchange for Crown Prince Yu Changfeng, King Huan had promised to support the Divine Lotus Sect's preaching and built countless temples in his fief.
However, in the fourth year, before Lin Xuan sacrificed the Daqian Dynasty, he suddenly transferred most of the elites from the Central Plains back to the North Barren.
Du Damao asked to stay, but he went into the dark and continued to contribute to the expansion of the Divine Lotus Path.
At that time, Du Damao only brought five True Energy Realm experts with him. Today, four years later, the stronghold had three God Astral Realm experts, more than forty True Energy Realm experts, and hundreds of Atman Body Realm experts.
Under Du Damao's lead, Lin Xuan came to an underground space. He sat down on the seat of honor and looked at Du Damao who was bowing. He said calmly, "Division Leader Du, your results in the past few years have been good. After this year's assessment, you should be able to go up a level with your results."
Du Damao's face was full of excitement. He said with a trembling voice, "I only did what I was supposed to do. I dare not take credit for it!"
"Our sect has always been fair in rewards and punishments. You should take what you deserve!" Lin Xuan said.
"Yes, yes, thank you, Sect Leader!" Du Damao quickly said.
Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Division Leader Du, you have been in the Shuo Region for seven years. You should be familiar with the place. Tell me about the situation in the Shuo Region."
"Yes."
Du Damao gradually calmed down. He thought for a while and said, "Dao Master, ever since Da Qian was destroyed, the entire Shuo Province has been in chaos. Without the governance of the imperial court, the entire Shuo Province has been filled with evil spirits and bandits.
After the initial chaos, a large number of roaming bandits and some of the larger local gangs took over the various cities and established a rough order.
However, before the Shuo Region could really settle down, the surrounding dynasties attacked again.
They had clashed countless times in the Shuo Province. Blood flowed like rivers, and the number of casualties exceeded three million. Every side suffered heavy losses, and in the end, there was still no clear victor. However, no one was willing to give up.
Until a year ago, the Da Li, Da Xia, and Da Ye Dynasty signed a ceasefire agreement. They all withdrew from the Shuo Region and used it as a buffer zone. Only then did the Shuo Region barely settle down.
Since then, the Shuo Region became a land without a master. Some of the evil forces that were banished by the various dynasties fled to the Shuo Region. The Shuo Region was in chaos. Not to mention the mortals, even low-level martial artists were in a precarious situation.
However, because it was difficult to survive, the countless followers of the Divine Lotus Path became more devout and more martial artists emerged.
