Chu Tian, bearing the oppressive might, didn't even flinch.
The next moment, both parties attacked simultaneously.
The Kidney Deficiency Young Master's fan gleamed with scorching treasure light, spinning like a fiery wheel, ablaze with fierce flames, shooting directly towards Chu Tian's face.
The woman, meanwhile, leaped into the air.
Her hands were like eagle claws.
She glided forward, her body skimming the ground.
With a move described as the "Uterine Grasp," she aimed directly for Chu Tian's vital spot.
"You slut, so venomous! You deserve to die!"
Chu Tian's eyes narrowed. This woman was aiming for his progeny, a direct assault on his manhood. This was something even a brother could not tolerate, much less a younger one!
He reached out and slapped down at the flying, flaming fan.
*Boom...*
The treasure fan, emitting a scorching glow, was met by Chu Tian's palm. A dull thud echoed, and with a whoosh, its direction was immediately altered, sending it plummeting towards the ground with even greater speed than it had arrived.
Its target was the woman's face, as she slid forward with her back pressed against the ground.
"Ah..."
Her hand, poised to attack Chu Tian, let out a startled cry at this moment.
No one had anticipated Chu Tian would directly block the opponent's magical artifact with his bare palm, and even forcefully alter its trajectory.
The incident happened too suddenly. The woman had no time to dodge. She hastily retracted her clawed hand.
*Swish...*
A pink light flashed on her hand as a pair of gloves appeared. She overlapped her hands, blocking the path of the flaming fan, right in front of her face.
"Careful!"
The Kidney Deficiency Young Master's face contorted, and he called out a warning.
It was still too late. Even if it wasn't late, the woman had no way to change her move. Her fury had consumed her, her technique was somewhat dated, and she hadn't held back any strength for a change of tactic.
Being able to retract her arm to block was already a feat.
*Boom...*
The moment the flaming fan made contact with her palms, a muffled explosion erupted, and waves of fire surged outward.
"Ah... Save me!"
The woman shrieked. She never imagined that this strike would be so ferocious. The back of her hand was jolted backward, slamming hard into her own face.
The intense pain, an agony she hadn't experienced in years.
Pain was secondary. Accompanying a gust of wind from above her head, a potent sense of deathly fear assailed her, filling her with terror and prompting her to cry out.
Her cry for help was just that – a cry.
*Snap...*
Chu Tian's toe made contact with her skull.
The flaming fan also smashed hard into her face.
*Boom...*
Blazing flames erupted.
The Kidney Deficiency Young Master's face darkened as he forcefully pulled the flaming fan back.
But it was too late. Three seconds had passed.
The flames vanished.
All that remained on the ground was a blackened, withered skeleton.
It still retained a human shape.
Its appearance was extremely terrifying.
However, this withered skeleton was headless.
Because the moment the flames touched her, her head had already exploded like a ripe watermelon.
"Dead... she's dead!?"
Everyone present who could still open their eyes was stunned, including the Lord of Wudu City.
Others only knew the woman was powerful; he knew her true capabilities.
She was a peak mid-stage King-level expert.
Even closer to late-stage King-level, just half a step away.
He himself was at the peak of King-level cultivation.
In terms of cultivation, the Lord of Wudu City was actually no weaker than any of the three individuals present.
It was just that for the sake of money, he had to lower himself.
With the woman's death,
The Kidney Deficiency Young Master no longer launched an attack on Chu Tian.
Simultaneously, his gaze towards Chu Tian changed, containing a trace of surprise and fear.
"Kid... how cunning! You've been hiding your cultivation!"
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
A full ten seconds passed.
The old man sitting in the center slowly stood up.
His gaze towards Chu Tian also became serious.
However, he showed no sign of backing down.
He believed that no matter how high the kid's cultivation was, it would at most be peak King-level.
For his age, peak King-level was already the most elite genius in the entire Yin-Yang Realm.
"Old man, I don't even know my own cultivation, but it seems you're the strongest here. Today, I'll spar with you!"
Chu Tian had no desire for further dialogue.
He understood perfectly why he was here: to find his old brothers.
And to bring them home.
What need was there for so much pointless talk?
Moreover, he had never lost, naturally possessing an aura of invincibility.
"Wait..." Just as Chu Tian was about to make his move.
The old man suddenly waved his hand.
"If you have something to say, spit it out! My time is short!"
"I'll give you an opportunity now. If you are willing to become my disciple, I will petition the headquarters to spare your life, and you will follow me henceforth, serving the Yunshui Business Firm. What do you say?"
This old man actually extended an olive branch to Chu Tian.
The Kidney Deficiency Young Master beside him narrowed his eyes.
Others might not know, but he was aware that countless people wished to become this old man's disciple.
Yet, they were all rejected.
Now, facing someone whom the headquarters had unequivocally ordered to be killed, he intended to take the opponent as a disciple.
And he even offered a promise to protect Chu Tian's life.
It seemed this old man was not as carefree as he appeared.
The remaining individuals in Wudu City who could still open their eyes and breathe heard the olive branch extended by the old man and immediately thought how lucky this kid was.
However, the Lord of Wudu City narrowed his eyes, pondering something unknown.
*Boom...*
Suddenly, a muffled thunderclap echoed between heaven and earth.
It caused everyone to stir, yet they detected no anomaly.
"Be your master? I call you master, dare you answer?"
Chu Tian's eyes flickered. He suddenly remembered the little monk who had previously wanted to be his master.
Just as that muffled thunder sound arose, Chu Tian once again sensed that abnormal fluctuation.
That fluctuation had appeared before when the little monk wanted to become his master.
However, back on Blue Star, it had directly manifested as annihilation lightning.
Chasing the little monk Fahai to a point where he had nowhere to run and no door to enter.
This time, however, there was no lightning, only a tremor in space.
"What is there to not dare? Kneel down now and call me master, with everyone here as witness. I guarantee that in this Yin-Yang Realm, no one will dare to touch you again, including the Yunshui Merchant Association!"
Seeing Chu Tian stir, the old man suddenly boasted loudly.
"Haha, Master... Your disciple Chu Tian, bows here!"
After hearing his words, Chu Tian let out two loud laughs.
Everyone assumed he was mocking the old man, and even the elder's expression flickered.
However, the next moment, Chu Tian actually called him master and cupped his fists. But why was the speed of his bowing so slow?
Chu Tian, at this moment, seemed to be in slow motion, bending his waist bit by bit.
*Boom...*
*Crack...*
*Whoosh...*
Just as Chu Tian's body bent to a 45-degree angle, before reaching 90 degrees.
That muffled thunder sound arose, and a lightning bolt, purple-black and as thick as a water bucket, materialized from thin air.
Then, with a whoosh.
It silently pierced through the Wudu City's grand formation.
It caused no damage to the Wudu City's grand formation.
But it directly penetrated the roof of the main hall in the City Lord's mansion, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the old man's head.
"What?"
Everyone's faces turned ashen with shock.
Purple lightning was annihilation thunder.
Only those who provoked the Heavenly Dao were punished by such lightning.
