The welcoming disciples all seemed to be outstanding disciples from the younger generation of the Jiang family. Even if they weren’t in the Divine Transformation Realm, they were only half a step away.
Each of them was at such a relatively high cultivation level that ordinary people would’ve still considered them experts.
As they all began to attack, the fluctuating Spiritual Aether became a torrent that headed towards Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan had completely looked down on the attacks of an ordinary expert in the Divine Transformation Realm. Additionally, he thought nothing of the attacks of those who were only half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm.
Lu Xuan grabbed at the void with one hand. To everyone’s surprise, he caught and destroyed these attacks.
These attacks were reduced to mere sparks in the palm of Lu Xuan’s hand, just like the metal sparks created when gold and iron collided.
“What?” The expression on the faces of these disciples from the Jiang family immediately changed into looks of fear. If anyone was able to grab and destroy their attacks with just their physical body, then that meant that the person had a terrifying body.
When the disciples looked at Lu Xuan again, they found that he did not have any fluctuations of Spiritual Aether around him at all. He seemed just like an ordinary person who had never cultivated before.
However, this ordinary person had unexpectedly blocked their attacks very easily. No matter how people looked at the situation, it was unusual.
Lu Xuan said to Liu Haotian behind him. “Watch this!”
Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!
People couldn’t clearly see what had happened while a few sword lights flashed by. The lights then chopped off the heads of the disciples from the Jiang family, causing their blood to gush out in tall geysers.
Liu Haotian’s small face was flushed. He was not used to seeing people getting killed like this, but he knew that these were his enemies. He knew that he had to get used to it eventually.
The change at the foot of the mountain soon alarmed the Jiang family members within the mountain; the sound of the alarm bells rang out from the depths of the mountain.
Hundreds of Jiang family experts surrounded Lu Xuan. While most of them had not yet reached the Divine Transformation Realm, some of them were already several Divine Transformation Realm experts.
The Jiang family was only a small family; they did not have many experts in the Divine Transformation Realm. After Lu Xuan had killed many of the family’s experts, only a few of them remained.
This time, all the old experts of the Jiang family got themselves involved. These elders, as well as the other elders that Lu Xuan had killed, were all middle-aged elders who were at the peak of their lives. They were far older; they might as well have been considered to be old men now.
The elders of this age were in a state of semi-retirement. They either lived in peace, or they were preparing for a breakthrough that was very unlikely to arise.
With how things currently looked, one could’ve said that they were being forced to act now.
This was all because of Lu Xuan!
As soon as the elders of the Jiang family saw Lu Xuan, they immediately recognized him with angry eyes.
At that moment, one of the elders of the Jiang family exclaimed, “How dare you show yourself here?!”
Nobody expected Lu Xuan to show up while the Jiang family was spending so many resources just to capture him. There was also the fact that Liu Haotian was standing behind Lu Xuan.
When the elder who spoke saw Liu Haotian behind Lu Xuan, a touch of greed flashed in this elder’s eyes.
It’s the blood of the sacred ones!
Some people wanted to accept Liu Haotian as their disciple so they could have the blood of the sacred ones for themselves. Some people wanted to breed Liu Haotian, while others wanted to dissect and study him.
Some people even wanted to capture Liu Haotian and use his body to create some kind of medicine.
The medicine they could produce using his body could prolong life. However, such a major medicine had to be refined with special blood as the main ingredient.
This was a technique handed down from ancient times; it was said to have been handed down from the blood devils.
Back when the blood devils had arrived, they had gone everywhere to capture human beings with special blood to refine their medicine and prolong their lives. Under such an environment, the sacred ones of the sacred ancestor were forced to resist the blood devils. In the process, they rose to become the sacred ancestors of the people on the Holy Sun Continent.
After that, many people began targeting the descendants of the sacred ones. They wanted to capture Liu Haotian so that they could refine the medicine and prolong their life.
In particular those very old cultivators. This was especially so with the older cultivators. They had used various means to prolong their life, including alkahestry pills. However, those methods were no longer effective now.
Therefore, they turned their attention towards Liu Haotian.
As expected, the elders of the Jiang family who were present looked at Liu Haotian with a bit of longing and enthusiasm in their eyes.
At first, the Jiang family planned to quietly grab Liu Haitian and use him in breeding so they could have the blood of the sacred ones within their bloodline. Once that was completed, they planned to make a medicine that would’ve extended the lifespans of a group of elders.
Lu Xuan smiled coldly at the elders of the Jiang family and said, “Why wouldn’t I dare to show myself like this? Weren’t you guys looking everywhere to kill me? Well, I’m here now. I want to see which one of you can kill me!”
He stood on the ground, tall and straight. Although he was actually around 1.8 meters tall, he looked like a towering mountain.
“Is he the one who had saved the boy with the blood of the sacred ones?”
“This man is very strange. You can’t even see the slightest sign of Spiritual Aether on him!”
“He must be no ordinary person if he can save someone from the Jiang family and kill them!”
Meanwhile, the other guests who had come to celebrate the birthday of the Jiang family’s Great Ancestor were not as suspicious. They all began to talk amongst themselves.
Lu Xuan was such a bizarre existence to them that they even felt as if something was off.
One elder of the Jiang family wore a stern expression as he said, “Three months ago, you killed a group of elders from the Jiang family and their leader. Now, you dare to come to our door. Do you think that you can defend yourself when our entire family is here?”
This old man looked rather healthy; he was dressed in a gorgeous robe and looked thin. However, he had an astonishing force on his body. He was the previous generation’s chief elder of the Jiang family.
His status was very high, placing him above all the elders of the Jiang family.
“Do you guys know how it feels now?” Lu Xuan saw that everyone had a serious expression on their faces. Obviously, they were furious at Lu Xuan for killing their loved ones.
However, Lu Xuan just sneered with disdain. “When you killed all the descendants of the Liu family, why didn’t you think about how much pain their deaths would’ve caused?”
“You seemed to be friends with the Liu family, yet you chose to try and persecute the young son of the Liu family. Where the hell is your propriety, justice, honesty, and honor?”
Lu Xuan’s words caused an uproar among the guests, who didn’t know too much about the situation. They did not know that the Jiang family took the lead in killing the descendant of the Liu family.
The Jiang family said that they had gone to protect the descendant of the Liu family, but they were stopped by a mysterious young man dressed in white. Not only did the young man take Liu Haotian away, but he also killed all the experts and elders whom the Jiang family had sent to protect the boy.
Now, however, Lu Xuan had given them a completely different version of the story.
