"Greetings, Old Ancestor!"
The Jiang family members bowed in unison.
This was the oldest living person in the Jiang family, rumored to have lived for three sexagenary cycles.
His profound cultivation was terrifying!
The Jiang family's Old Ancestor grunted impassively, then fixed his gaze on Chen Nan. "I've heard of you, Wushan's most proud disciple!"
"Very good, to possess Qi Refining stage cultivation at such a young age."
"With your cultivation, looking at the history of the Outer Eight Sects, you are one of a kind!"
"If you dedicate yourself to cultivation, with the resources of the Outer Eight Sects, you could definitely go much further!"
"However, you should not have provoked the dignity of my Jiang family!"
"I never intended to provoke the Jiang family!" Chen Nan lit a cigarette and said calmly, "What I want is simple. As long as you hand over Ku He, I will leave now!"
He was not surprised that his identity was known.
After all, the Outer Eight Sects were ultimately martial forces, and some things could be investigated.
Moreover, he was the highest-ranking ancestor of the Outer Eight Sects!
"Young man, do we have any grievances? This should be our first meeting, shouldn't it?"
A young man in his twenties next to the Jiang family's Old Ancestor spoke. He had willow-leaf curved brows, long and narrow phoenix eyes, and fair, delicate skin, appearing as seductive as a woman.
Chen Nan's killing intent was instantly ignited. "You are Ku He? Do you still remember a woman named Chen Yun?"
Ku He chuckled. "I remember, I remember that woman very clearly, probably won't forget her even in death."
"Not only did I gain a rich Yin energy from her, but most importantly, she was ruthless!"
"Do you know how ruthless she could be?"
"After I was done with her, worried about getting pregnant, she even pierced her own lower abdomen with a long sword!"
"Unfortunately, I had originally planned to keep her by my side and make her my cauldrons. But after she did that, I had no choice but to abandon her!"
"Oh, I understand. She is your relative, isn't she?"
"Otherwise, you wouldn't be so hostile towards me!"
"Hand over Ku He, and I will spare the Jiang family!" A terrifying killing intent erupted from within Chen Nan, affecting everyone present.
The Jiang family's Old Ancestor said with a cold expression, "How can our Jiang family abandon a guest elder of the clan?"
Chen Nan asked, "Even though you claim you don't abandon your guest elders, wasn't Old Guan abandoned by you?"
"Hmph, he's just a good-for-nothing!" The Jiang family's Old Ancestor showed no concealment of his inner disgust. "Living for so many years, yet still stuck at the mid-stage of the first level of Qi Refining, simply a waste of my Jiang family's resources!"
Guan Qing clenched his fists!
So it turns out!
He had always been a good-for-nothing!
Chen Nan asked, "In other words, you are prepared to share life and death with Ku He?"
The Jiang family's Old Ancestor said coldly, "With just the two of you, can you possibly defeat the experts of my Jiang family? It's not that I'm looking down on you, but do you have that capability?"
"Whether we have the capability or not, won't we know after a fight?" Guan Qing's eyes were resolute.
Chen Nan, on the other hand, leaned against a Mercedes-Benz, smoking a cigarette.
It was as if the scene before him had nothing to do with him!
"Let me meet him!" An old man walked down the stone steps with a half-smile. "I'd like to see how much this good-for-nothing who left the Jiang family for three days has improved."
His name was Lu Ji, and he possessed the peak cultivation of the first level of Qi Refining.
Guan Qing had one hand behind his back, his expression indifferent, exuding an aura of an otherworldly master. "Your cultivation is not strong, but it's more than enough to kill you!"
When he had left that day, he had been extremely disheveled.
Whether it was the Jiang family members!
Or the servants of the Jiang family!
Their eyes were filled with mockery and disdain as they looked at him!
Today, he returned with force, and his demeanor had to be imposing!
"Go to hell!"
Lu Ji's eyes narrowed, and he flashed before Guan Qing.
His right fist was poised, and there was a faint sound of a tiger's roar!
"You think you can harm me?" Guan Qing scoffed. He formed a hand seal and cast the Gravity Technique.
Just then, Lu Ji entered the range of the Gravity Technique.
Instantly, he felt his body become incredibly heavy, as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders.
"Scram!"
Guan Qing threw a punch, hitting Lu Ji directly in the chest.
Pfft!
Lu Ji spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying into the stone lion at the Jiang family's entrance, smashing the lion's head to pieces.
Lu Ji lay on the stone lion, his eyes vacant.
His limbs hung limply, and blood could be seen flowing down them.
"Hiss!"
"Damn it, how could this happen?"
"Damn, Senior Lu Ji was clearly a peak expert of the first level of Qi Refining, how could he be instantly killed by Guan Qing now?"
"I feel like the scene before me is too absurd!"
"I feel the same way. Guan Qing only has the strength of the mid-stage of the first level of Qi Refining, how could he instantly kill a peak expert of the first level of Qi Refining?"
"Could it be that he broke through?"
The Jiang family members chattered amongst themselves!
The Jiang family's Old Ancestor, along with several other enshrined elders, remained calm.
A shifty-eyed old man with a handlebar mustache walked out, his eyes carrying a glint of disdain. "You think by mastering the Gravity Technique, you can challenge us?"
"Even if you killed Lu Ji, it wouldn't prove your strength!"
"If you hadn't used the Gravity Technique to catch Lu Ji off guard, how could you have killed him?"
Before he finished speaking, he formed a hand seal and cast the Gravity Technique!
These were all Daoist spells, learned at the Jiang family.
Buzz!
An invisible domain instantly spread out!
Pfft, pfft, pfft!
The bluestone pavement cracked under the immense gravity!
He took a step forward, and the invisible domain spread towards Guan Qing.
When the Gravity Techniques cast by the two met!
Boom!
A muffled sound, like thunder, suddenly erupted, and a terrifying shockwave burst forth between them!
The dreadful shockwave sent the old man flying backward!
But Guan Qing remained completely still!
The difference in strength was clear for all to see!
"Impossible! I am an expert at the early stage of the second level of Qi Refining. How could an ant like you harm me?" the goat-bearded old man roared in anger.
"Killing you... is as easy as turning my hand!" Guan Qing took a step forward.
What seemed like an ordinary movement instantly brought him beside the goat-bearded old man.
"Shrinking Ground into an Inch?"
The Jiang family's Old Ancestor, along with the other Qi Refining experts, gasped!
Although the Jiang family had several Daoist spells, they were low-level ones.
But...
Shrinking Ground into an Inch was a high-level spell recorded in Daoism!
The goat-bearded old man's face was filled with terror!
He couldn't understand at all why Guan Qing had cultivated such a high-level spell!
Before he could even react, Guan Qing unleashed a punch: "Heartbreak Fist!"
Pfft!
With one punch.
The goat-bearded old man was sent rolling out.
He spat out blood, mixed with pieces of flesh of various sizes.
He looked at Guan Qing with unwilling eyes, wanting to say something, but he was completely powerless and unable to move.
As a result, he couldn't even close his eyes in death!
At this moment.
The Jiang family's Old Ancestor's face turned grim, sensing something unusual. "Guan Qing, have you broken through?"
