As soon as he said that, the entire place went silent.
Even Zheng Rui, who knew Chen Xiao's identity, couldn't help but gasp.
Yan Hao and Yan Qing shivered and almost splashed the wine in their hands onto the guests next to them.
All the guests present felt their hearts palpitate.
"Too arrogant, too domineering!"
Not convinced? I'll kill you right now!
Someone who dared to say such a thing when surrounded by powerful enemies …
If he wasn't a complete lunatic, then he must be a supreme expert with terrifying strength!
For a moment.
A noisy atmosphere spread in all directions. Among the guests, some of the powerful cultivators had strange expressions on their faces. Their fighting spirit rose.
The air seemed to have become extremely viscous like a volcano that was about to erupt. There was a restless aura brewing, ready to erupt at any time.
All the powerful cultivators were enraged!
"Sir, you're too arrogant! How can you resist the power of so many powerful cultivators alone? "
A middle-aged man in a tight outfit walked out. His long hair fluttered in the wind and his aura was bone-chilling like a thousand-year-old glacier.
"I'm very curious about your abilities. I wonder if you'll kill me on the spot?"
At the same time, a lady in a pink dress walked over with a smile. Her skin was fair and there was an ancient rune engraved between her brows.
A miniature domain flickered indeterminately around the woman's body, concealing her true appearance and making her look like a god from the divine domain.
"Sir, you're so arrogant. I wonder if your abilities are as great as your words!"
A sharp voice was heard and a horse-faced old man stepped out. His aura was like a divine spear that shot up into the sky.
The strength that Chen Xiao had displayed earlier had indeed made many people fearful.
A wine glass that wasn't stained with blood had killed an elder of the Lan family in an instant.
However, to them, that alone wasn't enough to fight everyone present!
"You can try, but the price of doing so …"
Chen Xiao was expressionless as he glanced at the elder of the Lan family.
It was just one action, but it immediately made many people's hearts tremble. The deeper meaning behind it couldn't be more obvious.
— The price of doing so was death!
Chen Xiao had already made plans for these unruly hidden powerful cultivators before he returned to the country.
With the appearance of these people, Earth would inevitably become more and more chaotic.
As for Chen Xiao, he still needed to investigate the secrets of the Gate of Heaven. He could not waste too much time on these people.
Therefore …
He needed a battle to awe the crowd and settle the situation!
Zheng Rui's birthday banquet was merely the prelude to this battle.
"Cough, cough. Everyone, don't be agitated. Listen to this old man."
Seeing that the atmosphere was growing increasingly stifling, Zheng Rui hurriedly stepped forward and coughed lightly.
"All of you are here to participate in this old man's birthday banquet. If there's anything you want to discuss, we can talk it out. There's no need for you to resort to violence …"
"Guild Leader Zheng, if it were any other time, we would naturally give you face. However, we can't do that today!"
The middle-aged man shouted coldly as he stared intently at Chen Xiao. "If he takes back his words, we can still give him some face. Otherwise, we can only apologize today!"
"No, no, no, everyone must be mistaken. This old man is not trying to stop you."
Zheng Rui shook his head repeatedly with a bitter smile on his face. He looked at Chen Xiao respectfully and said solemnly,
"Senior, when you attack later, please try not to bleed."
"We'll see. I'll try my best not to kill them."
Chen Xiao nodded leisurely. The faces of the experts who stood out darkened to the extreme.
Initially, they thought that Zheng Rui was here to mediate. Who would have thought that he would be so stubborn as to persuade Chen Xiao to try not to bleed?
Chen Xiao's reply was even more stifling.
What did he mean by try not to kill them? Did he think that they were pushovers that he could squash at will?
"Since that's the case, let's see who's stronger!"
Three roars sounded in succession, turning into three surging killing intents.
There was a bone-chilling frost with countless snowflakes falling from the sky, severing the vitality within a thousand li. There were runes appearing and disappearing, as though a deity was making a move, sparkling and incomparably sacred. The horse-faced old man transformed into a spear, his spear intent shocking the heavens, piercing through the void.
These three people were indeed powerful grandmasters that were rarely seen in the world.
Not only were their cultivations outstanding, but they had also walked on their own path and were only a step away from the realm of unparalleled experts.
Unfortunately …
They had encountered Chen Xiao!
"The few of you are still too weak."
Chen Xiao shook his head and sighed. He flicked the wine glass in his hand and tossed it into the air.
Instantly, the red wine in the glass spilled out. The dark red wine was the color of flames as it boiled in the air.
Crackle!
The dark red flames incinerated the sky, incinerating the frost intent of the middle-aged man instantly.
"My frost intent …"
The middle-aged man's eyes bulged in rage as his mind was shattered by the backlash and his brain turned into mush.
Thereafter, the dark red wine spilled towards the woman in pink.
Specks of divine light formed layers of extremely profound runes in the air.
"Drawing talismans in the air?!"
The woman in pink was shocked. She could feel the runes that she had condensed with her mind shattering rapidly – there were hundreds and thousands of them every second!
Furthermore, the ability to draw talismans in the air did not belong to a grandmaster. In fact, it was above that.
Using the red wine to form runes to attack the enemy – such a method was unheard of!
It was a miracle that she had never seen before.
There was only one price to pay for witnessing a miracle …
Death!
Eventually, the wine glass that was tossed flew towards the long-faced old man.
"I don't believe that you can kill me with just a wine glass!"
When he saw two people die in the blink of an eye, the long-faced old man roared with a menacing expression. Like a divine spear, his spear intent was boundless as it pierced through the heavens!
However.
Under everyone's shocked and heartbroken gazes.
Suddenly, an earth-shattering spear intent burst forth from the fragile wine glass!
The spear intent was even purer and fiercer – it would rather break than bend!
"That spear intent is even stronger than Old Fogey Ma's?!" An expert in the crowd exclaimed.
The next moment.
The wine glass turned into a spear beam that pierced through the void and tore the long-faced old man's spear intent apart!
Intents were connected to the soul.
The destruction of one's intent was equivalent to a heavy blow to the soul – there was no way one could defend against that terrifying spear beam.
With a 'poof', the wine glass smashed into the long-faced old man's glabella, causing the light in his eyes to dim gradually.
At that moment, it was less than half a minute since the start of the battle!
"How is that possible …"
"Oh my heavens, this must be an illusion!"
"Old Fogey Ma lost in the Dao of the spear?!"
Be it the hidden experts, the people from the mainland or even Zheng Rui himself …
At this moment, all of them turned pale with fright, and cries of surprise escaped from their mouths.
When everyone looked at Chen Xiao once more, they felt that the figure was incomparably tall and mysterious at the same time.
A glass of red wine had defeated three strong opponents in a row.
His methods had long surpassed the mortal realm – it was the true means of a deity!
"Invincible, this is true invincibility!"
Someone's voice was trembling.
