All the faction leaders and Path Seeking experts had looks of terror on their faces as they retreated frantically.
At the same time, the patriarch of the Jiang family was still aging. He now looked like he was in his eighties.
After that, the aging stopped and began to reverse.
At the same time, a golden light flashed above Tang Hao’s head. The little golden Natal Soul flew out, grabbed the Sky Sundering Spear, and threw it out viciously. It struck the patriarch’s chest with a bang.
His treasure robe flashed and blocked the attack. However, the shockwave still made him spit out blood and fly backward.
The Natal Soul grabbed the thunder blade, the golden cauldron, and all kinds of treasures to continue the attack, which made him spew blood continuously.. Finally, it breached the defense of the treasure robe, and wounds began to appear on his body.
“Patriarch!”
The old monsters of the Jiang family were anxious. They rushed forward, grabbed the patriarch, and brought him away.
The entire area fell into a dead silence.
None of the people said a word.
They were completely stunned by what they saw.
The patriarch of the Jiang family, one of the most powerful figures of the First Continent, was beaten up mercilessly!
His opponent was only a kid who had just entered the State of the Nascent Soul!
Only the sound of the blowing wind was heard.
Gulp!
Suddenly, many people gulped at once.
Their faces had all turned pale with terror.
They wanted to see how the kid would die, but they did not expect to see something so shocking.
A mere Nascent Soul cultivator had defeated a faction leader in the latter period of the State of Path Seeking. That was entirely insane!
After recovering from their shock, despair appeared on the young men’s faces.
That guy was simply undefeatable!
The faction masters looked at each other and dared not move forward.
The patriarch’s miserable encounter had truly shocked them.
They were not sure if that kid would be able to use that technique again. If he could use it again, then it would be a very difficult fight.
For a moment, they all hesitated.
Taking advantage of that opportunity, Tang Hao moved and appeared in front of the people of the Deathless Sect. He swung his cauldron, sent their Path-Chosen flying, captured him, and stored him in the ancient token together with the scarlet flood dragon.
His figure continued to flash as he abducted more Path-Chosen. In the blink of an eye, he had abducted six.
“What are you doing, Qin? Release them!”
“You despicable scoundrel!”
The faction leaders were hopping mad.
“Get out of the way!” Tang Hao said coldly. “If you dare attack me, don’t expect them to live either!”
“You…”
“Don’t spare him. That kid is nothing but trouble. If you let him go, there will be endless disasters!”
At that moment, several faction leaders shouted.
Of course, none of their disciples were abducted.
Meanwhile, the six faction leaders whose disciples had been captured began to hesitate.
They looked at each other in despair.
Originally, there were twenty leaders — ten from the ancient great sects, and ten from the conferred families.
The patriarch of the Yushi family was half-dead from being caught in the Tribulation of Lightning. He had been sent back to the family estate, and it was said that his situation was dire.
That patriarch of the Jiang family had been severely injured by that brat and had lost the ability to fight.
There were eighteen leaders left. Six of them had hostages with that Qin guy and could not attack at will.
If they let the others attack, their prodigies would suffer.
As faction leaders, they had never been caught in that dilemma before.
They began to regard the kid differently.
Not only was the kid shockingly powerful, but he was also incredibly daring to abduct their prodigies in front of their eyes!
The tables had been turned on them just because they were careless!
Now, they had no other choice but to let that kid go!
“Let him go!”
The Deathless Sect leader sighed and said.
“You’re muddled, Ol’ Deathless! We can’t let him go!”
The Yao family patriarch shouted sternly.
“Ol’ Yao, you can say that because your prodigy isn’t one of the hostages!” The Deathless Sect leader immediately retorted.
At that moment, Tang Hao turned around and left without saying a word.
The faction leaders did not move. They watched him leave reluctantly.
Hostages were always the best bargaining chips. Tang Hao was well aware of that.
He activated the Emperor Yu’s Step and dashed away. When he reached the periphery, he let one person go.
In the crowd, someone activated a spell in an attempt to track him. He immediately sensed it and grunted lightly. “You have a death wish!”
He threw a spear, which penetrated that person’s skull.
He retracted his spear and looked around coldly, making sure that no one dared to move.
Soon, he was out of sight.
In the crowd, there was a deathly stillness. The atmosphere was stifling.
“Why are you still standing there? Chase him!”
“Quick, bring him back!”
The faction leaders finally moved and chased after him.
By the time they found the last person, the kid had already disappeared.
The faction leaders looked at each other and remained silent.
That was utter humiliation!
“Let’s go! Continue searching!”
They parted ways and searched for him with their own disciples.
However, they knew that it was impossible to find that kid anymore. Even if they found him, defeating him would remain a problem.
The kid was no longer the same as before. He had already become a force to be reckoned with. If they met him alone, they might not even be able to take him down.
The patriarch of the Jiang family was a living example.
If the faction leaders could not defeat him, the elders under them would not be able to do so either.
That kid had only advanced to the State of the Nascent Soul, but he was already acting like a true expert. It would not be long before he reached their level.
The Deathless Sect leader and the others sighed regretfully.
Very quickly, the news spread and once again shocked the First Continent.
They were waiting for news of the kid’s death, but they did not expect that the tables were turned on the faction leaders.
The news was even more shocking than that of him winning the Coronation Battle.
A mere Nascent Soul cultivator defeated a faction leader?
That was simply unimaginable.
“That Qin guy… What kind of background does he have?”
Everyone was puzzled.
That person had created shockwaves throughout the First Continent ever since his arrival there. Not only did he defeat the legendary Ji Wu and a bunch of other prodigies, he even defeated a faction leader.
That figure was beyond monstrous!
Which continent could he have come from?
No one could answer that question. After all, the First Continent was too far away from the other continents.
The news caused a stir.
Before this, when people mentioned that Qin guy, they would curse his name and threaten to kill him.
After all, he was only a young man. He was nothing to the Path Seeking experts.
However, things were different now. When they mentioned that Qin guy again, they all felt some trepidation. In their eyes, he was already a true expert.
In the world where the mighty ruled, experts were always revered!
