Chapter 100: Small Places with Nasty People

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Despite Shi Danze’s formidable prowess, he was still completely overwhelmed by Qiu Qianying’s moves.

To him, meeting someone packed with power items that provided a defense against mental type attacks would be like meeting his natural enemy.

It was just like how it was when Zhang Hongyang first met Lu Xuan.

All mental attacks that Zhang Hongyang had been able to bring to the table had been totally useless against Lu Xuan, whose mental strength was far above Zhang Hongyang’s.

While such power items were not widely available, they were not all that difficult to craft, either. Lu Xuan was capable of making a couple without much trouble. But then again, all that he crafted were considered low-level, incapable of providing defense over prolonged periods of time.

While the effects of such power items would have been limited in the hands of common folks, in the hands of top-notch fighters, even blocking one mental attack would have enabled them to deal the decisive attack in the fight. The number of times those items would work was irrelevant.

While the Mental Awakened had an overwhelming advantage in the early stages, they were also easy to counter.

Be it warriors, cultivators, spellcasters, or just some Awakened, all had their own unique strengths, and the key was how to make the most of their powers.

“Hahaha, a Mental Awakened, eh? Nothing but trash before me.”

Qiu Qianying laughed out loud as he threw a punch at Shi Danze, throwing the latter back right away and causing him to spit up blood.

It was fortunate that Shi Danze was still a Martial Arts Legend as well. While he excelled in mental attacks, his constitution had, nonetheless, improved as well. Common Baodan Grandmasters would probably end up getting punched to death right there and then instead.

The crone and the man with sharp features smirked at the side, feeling pleased with themselves. It was that man who had crippled them personally, after all, and they were very eager to see their master tear Shi Danze to shreds.

Qiu Qianying pounced and launched his knuckledusters at Shi Danze right away.

Shi Danze was cornered to a wall, having nowhere else to run.

A trembling boom was heard in the nick of time. A pebble fired without anyone having noticed it.

Qiu Qianying backed away at that key moment, evading that terrifying attack frantically.

That pebble lodged deep into the wall, punching quite a hole out of it. Spider web-like cracks then spread out in all directions from the original spot where the pebble had hit.

The force of that hit was so strong that it rivaled machine gun bullets.

“Who are you?” Qiu Qianying finally caught sight of someone looking at them from the second floor.

The ferocious smirk on his face was rescinded as he pointed straight at Ling Huang. “Ling Huang, it’s your honor that I sent someone to ask for your daughter’s hand of marriage, and you dare to cripple my men. I can see that you’ve gotten too used to being on top when it comes to most things, thinking you can rule over all just because you’re rich.”

Qiu Qianying kept his hands behind his back, not even bothering to look at Shi Danze, who was panting and puking blood in the corner from that punch.

He had power items capable of nullifying mental powers on his person, which made him unbeatable in such circumstances. Being robbed of the effectiveness of his mental impacts, Shi Danze’s prowess was such that he probably would not have been able to even beat a Baodan Grandmaster.

That man was of no threat to Qiu Qianying at all.

“You probably don’t even know what the world truly looks like yet. Rich people like you might have been all the rave before others, but tons of you people lay before me like dogs all the same.”

Qiu Qianying boasted away, behaving like he had everything under control.

He had seen a fair share of such rich people in Southern Yunnan, who were throwing their weight around before him. Yet, all of them were little more than dogs before him, and he was able to do whatever he pleased with them.

The situation was such that they were considered less than dogs, and the lives of many such people were in his hands.

Ling Huang looked angered when he heard all that. Giants in the commerce like him all had immense pride in themselves, and yet, a young man like Qiu Qianying dared to belittle him to such an extent, due only to having a rather formidable fighting prowess.

It was only then that he realized that his daughter, Ling Fei, might have been right all along—no matter how much money he earned, he was indeed less than a dog before the eyes of some.

One needed a certain measure of cultivation in order to be able to defend themselves, after all.

Lu Xuan was completely unfazed by all the big talk from Qiu Qianying. He had seen such expressions from that man before, but he did not expect that man to be so reckless in his younger days.

But then again, when he thought about it, by the time Lu Xuan annihilated the entire Soul-snatcher Sect back in his past life, all the other sects and clans hidden from the world had emerged one after another. The Soul-snatcher Sect was nothing in comparison, and they had to lay low just to avoid those of the other clans and sects from being reminded that there was yet another group of scum yet to be snuffed out.

Things were different at present. The world had only begun to awaken, and the Soul-snatcher Sect was considered one with a proper lineage and foundation compared to the likes of the Chen Clan and the Seven Invincible Sect.

The situation with the world of cultivators saw small places with nasty people all over the place. They all popped up one after another, thinking that they were gods among men.

“I had been in a good enough mood before to consider making your daughter a mistress of mine, but now I’ve changed my mind. I’m gonna make sure your daughter dies a horrible death right before your eyes.” Qiu Qianying was getting excited as some images popped into his head.

“Please, Mr. Lu, do something,” Ling Huang requested solemnly. His eyes glittered with a sharp glint as he spoke.

While Ling Huang was indeed a merchant who was incapable of fighting to save his life, it would have been a foolish mistake to think that he would have just surrendered on that day.

Qiu Qianying only then took notice of Lu Xuan, who was standing by Ling Huang’s side. That was because Lu Xuan looked totally harmless, so much so that he was unable to sense that the young man had been a cultivator at all.

He was unable to sense a hint of threat from Lu Xuan.

However, what Ling Huang said surprised him somewhat. Despite what he had just pulled, he found it puzzling that Ling Huang still chose to have faith in that young man.

Lu Xuan flashed a faint grin and leapt from the second floor, landing without making a sound at all.

It was only then that Qiu Qianying realized that Lu Xuan was probably capable of doing something.

However, he was hardly fazed at all. His current cultivation level was such that he was considered to be at the top amongst the younger generation. He had no problem killing those who were older than he was.

Lu Xuan looked too young to be capable of much. It looked as if it would not matter even if he had begun training before birth.

“Yet another one with a death wish. Good.”

Qiu Qianying smirked coldly.

However, Qiu Qianying frowned at the very next moment, seemingly having recalled something as something came to mind. He said, “I remember you. I read your records when I had my men look into Ling Fei. You attended the same school as her. So you are his guy, huh? I presume her refusal of me has something to do with you then.”

Qiu Qianying behaved brazenly, talking like he was the boss of the place.

“I guess a cracked bell can never ring well,” Lu Xuan said nonchalantly.

“You dare to speak ill of me? Die!” Qiu Qianying shouted and launched a punch right away at Lu Xuan.

Boom!

The force of the punch was such that it pulverized the air right before it.

The spikes on the knuckledusters tore through the air and looked extremely dangerous.

Martial Arts Legend fighters were capable of pushing their Vigor outside. While the knuckleduster was short, the Vigor extending outward was akin to blades of considerable length, intending to tear out Lu Xuan’s throat right away.

Lu Xuan still behaved in a relaxed manner despite the dire situation. He closed his fist and threw a punch that seemed to carry little to no force behind it.

“You really have a death wish, thinking you can take my knuckleduster empty-handed.”

Qiu Qianying smirked ferociously as if he was able to see images of Lu Xuan’s fist being torn to pieces before him.

Boom!

Qiu Qianying was sent flying at a speed far higher than when he pounced. His entire arm was soaked in blood. The muscle all over his arm had been torn in many places.
