“Who dares to cause chaos on Mu Clan’s land! Are you tired of living!?”

The middle aged man had a dark expression on his face. His name was Mu Feng, the Clan Leader of the Mu Clan.

“Leader!”

The moment the little servant saw this man, he immediately pulled himself together and stood out. Crying and with his nose running, he told the tale of what Ling Xian had done with much added exaggeration.

As the servant told the story, Mu Feng’s expression darkened more and more. The Mu Clan controlled the City of Sin. Even though there were two other political forces, n.o.body dared to disrespect this Clan in such a manner.

Especially during the Mu Clan’s prominent auction, n.o.body dared to behave so irrationally and it was a requirement for everyone to have to follow the rules. Yet right under his eyelids, someone disregarded the rules and even hit the servant from the Mu Clan. How could he not be angry?

Therefore, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards Ling Xian and spoke in a cold tone, “You there, it’s whatever that you disregarded the Mu Clan’s rules. But you even made the move of hurting someone from my Mu Clan. Shouldn’t you provide me with an explanation?”

“An explanation?”

Ling Xian’s lips still carried a sarcastic and cold smile. He just arrived at this place and never bugged or angered anyone, yet the Mu Clan plotted against him behind his back. He hasn’t even asked the Mu Clan for an explanation, yet the man before him required an explanation from him?

“How interesting.”

Ling Xian’s cold smile never vanished as he continued, “The Mu Clan sure is used to being arrogant and acting as if it’s better than everyone else.”

“It seems like you are here to create trouble.” Mu Feng’s expression was dark as coldness swirled in his eyes. However, he noticed that Ling Xian was not at all afraid at what was happening and thus, he didn’t dare to make a move without some considerations.

“No, I am here to ask for an explanation as well.” The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up as he uttered out a statement that dragged Mu Feng into h.e.l.l.

“I just arrived at this place and I did not provoke the Mu Clan by any means. But why did you plot against me?”

The moment Ling Xian’s voice trailed off, Mu Feng became petrified. The fear in his eyes was extremely difficult to hide.

As the Clan Leader of the Mu Clan, he naturally knew of the poisonous invitation. Though the genius behind this idea was the Elder of the Mu Clan, he was the one who executed it. Therefore, he was completely aware of this whole situation.

Therefore, after Ling Xian spoke this statement, he realized who the person before him was.

Not only him, all the important figures at the scene froze.

They have all heard of Ling Xian’s doing where he hissed once and sent shocks down everyone’s spine. Linking what happened there to the inextinguishable powerful the person before them displayed, they naturally realized who the man in white was.

It was the completion leveled powerhouse who’s arrival in the City of Sin stirred up everything in the city!

Therefore, how could everyone not be stunned? Everyone was staring at Ling Xian in an emotionless manner. Other than shock, there was only fear in their eyes.

The servant especially, was scared to the very extreme. Of course he didn’t know about whole ordeal with the Mu Clan calculating against Ling Xian, however, he’s heard of how Ling Xian rattled the entire City of Sin.

Therefore, when he realize that he had provoked a completion leveled cultivator, his entire body quivered and felt like it fell into frozen h.e.l.l.

Only now did he realize how stupid he was!

“Why aren’t you speaking?”

Looking at the quivering Mu Feng, Ling Xian’s face appeared sarcastic, “Are you perhaps, thinking about what kind of explanation you should be giving me?”

“I, I…” Mu Feng was sweating from head to toe. After stuttering for a long time, he still couldn’t speak out a whole statement.

Remember he was the Clan Leader of Mu Clan and was an important figure in the entire Clan. Normally, he acted as if he was above others and no matter whom he was dealing with, he remained collected and relaxed.

Yet against Ling Xian, he was fearful and scared, and as if he was living in h.e.l.l.

What could he do, Ling Xian was far too terrifying. Even though he wasn’t releasing any Qi, his position as a completion leveled cultivator was there. Though he was merely standing there, unmoving, he still had an imposed demeanor.

Against the suppression of a powerhouse like him, Mu Feng’s normal arrogance naturally vanished. To not be lying on the ground from fear was already not an easy feat.

“You, you, what?”

Ling Xian glanced at Mu Feng and said, “I will say this one last time. If you don’t provide me with a satisfactory explanation today, then one of the three controlling forces, the Mu Clan, has no need to continue existing.”

Sensing the killer’s intent in Ling Xian’s voice, Mu Feng’s body trembled. He did not doubt the capabilities of a completion leveled powerhouse. Therefore, he squeezed outa smile that was uglier than crying and soothed, “Please, let’s figure it out peacefully, let’s talk about this.”

As he spoke, he silently used one of his secret techniques to transmit a message to the completion leveled cultivator of the Clan.

The terror of a completion leveled powerhouse was something even the Mu Clan had to be careful against. Therefore, Feng Mu hurriedly sent the message to the Clan elders in hope that the completion leveled Elder will appear.

“He sent a message to the completion leveled cultivator in the Mu Clan?”

Ling Xian’s Qi was extremely sensitive and of he course he noticed Mu Feng’s small movements. However, he did not stop him because he wanted to see what kind of person the Mu Clan had as their anchor.

However, until he arrives, he will not go easy on the Mu Clan.

Lifting his lips, Ling Xian sarcastically smiled. “Mu Clan Leader, tell me, what kind of explanation are you planning on giving me? You should know what consequences there are if you cannot satisfy me.”

“It is clear, it is clear.” Mu Feng’s expression revealed much bitterness. The original plan of the Mu Clan was not to kill Ling Xian, but to have the poison enter Ling Xian’s body so his cultivation slips away little by little. Then, the Clan was planning on providing the antidote in order to tame Ling Xian.

After all, a completion leveled powerhouse who is alive is worth more than one who is dead.

Sadly, Ling Xian did not get poisoned. Instead, he showed up at their door. How could Mu Feng not feel bitter?

“As long as it is clear.”

Ling Xian tauntingly laughed. Though he had no plans on completely wrecking his relations.h.i.+p with the Mu Clan, he was far too angry. If he doesn’t release some of his anger, how can he go on?

Therefore, he flapped his sleeve without a warning and immediately, an infinite amount of spiritual energy poured out. The auction ground shook and crumbled, debris flew everywhere.

Everyone at the scene were utterly shocked.

What was even more shocking was that Ling Xian didn’t stop there. Instead, he appeared right before Mu Feng and grabbed onto his collar.

“You are definitely a part of the team that was calculating against me. It is time for you to pay the price.”

The moment he finished speaking, Ling Xian tightened his grasp on his collar, picked him up, and smashed him toward the ground.

BANG!

After a loud thump, Mu Feng’s head began to bleed. Luckily he used his own Qi to protect his physical body and luckily Ling Xian had no plans on killing him. If those weren’t the case, then his Qi protected head would be completely smashed after that.

“Your head seems to be rather strong. Let’s do that a few more times.”

Ling Xian smiled a faint smile. However, how everyone else perceived that grin, especially Mu Feng, was it was the smile of the devil. Others only felt fear jolt down their spines, and not a little bit of warmth was felt.

Luckily, just as Ling Xian was about to do the same attack for the second time, the others in the Mu Clan responded to Mu Feng’s message. This made Mu Feng ecstatic and said in a hurry, “Mister, mister! Stop, I have an explanation, I have an explanation!”

Bang!

Another bang echoed throughout as Ling Xian smashed Mu Feng down another time. Then, he released his grip and said, “Speak. If I am not satisfied by what you have to say, I will continue smas.h.i.+ng your head into the ground.”

Mu Feng reacted quickly and began to read the response from the secret message the Clan responded with. After he finished reading, his entire body froze where he stood and his face was full of disbelief.

At this, everyone at the scene were curious and could not think of what kind of content would bring Mu Feng into such a state of shock.

“Impossible, this is impossible.” Mu Feng mumbled and his facial expression turned complex. He was unwilling to speak out the message the Clan asked him to.

Feeling Ling Xian’s cold stare, he couldn’t help but to exhale deeply. Then, he uttered out a statement that brought everyone at the scene into astonishment.

“The Mu Clan admits its defeat. Out of all the auction items available at the auction, you can pick any three. They represent our apology.”
