Chapter 179: The Terror of Shou Yuanzhong

However, no one spoke.

No one dared to speak, either.

Xiao Fan looked up at Shou Yuanzhong in the air with a calm gaze.

He spoke indifferently, "Are you Xiao Tian's Master?"

"Indeed, it is this old man." Shou Yuanzhong nodded, his Face beaming with a smile. "Kid, I think you are not bad; you might want to consider it."

Having said that, Shou Yuanzhong cast a sidelong glance at the wooden boat.

His discernment was quite high; upon arriving, he recognized at a glance that this wooden boat was a Profound Rank High Grade Magical Artifact.

One must know that the cost of such a flying Magical Artifact is far more expensive than offensive Magical Artifacts.

And inside, there were two terrifying auras, experts of the Xuandan Realm whose cultivation was similar to his own.

They must be at the Elder level within the Jixian Sect.

He was unwilling to provoke them lightly…

"Heh… Hand it over? You have the nerve to say that."

Xiao Fan spoke coldly, causing everyone around to be stunned, even Shou Yuanzhong was taken aback.

He was a Xuandan Realm expert; when had he ever been humiliated like this by someone?

"You…" Shou Yuanzhong pointed a finger at Xiao Fan, instantly enraged.

However, Xiao Fan's words did not stop there.

"Old dog, you allowed your disciple to run wild in my Jingchuan, not only standing by but even becoming an accomplice, helping him suppress my grandfather… You deserve to die."

Xiao Fan spoke viciously, not giving Shou Yuanzhong, this Xuandan Realm expert, even the slightest shred of Face.

"You… little beast."

Shou Yuanzhong was furious. As a Xuandan Realm expert, when had he ever been publicly insulted by a small Cultivator of the Huaqi Realm?

A ball of flames appeared in his right hand, condensed from his own spiritual energy. The moment it appeared, the color of the world around them changed…

Gale winds rose, swirling around the ball of flames…

Xiao Fan furrowed his brows; the opponent's strength was far greater than he had imagined.

It was countless times stronger than Zhao Chunyang, the City Lord of Xiluo City, an injured Xuandan Realm Early Stage expert.

At this moment, Xiao Fan felt that even ten Zhao Chunyangs would not be a match for the old man before him.

The onlookers seeing this scene scattered in all directions…

A single strike from a Xuandan Realm expert, even the aftershocks, could instantly kill them.

The members of the Dragon family had ashen Faces, yet not one of them fled; they all stood around Xiao Fan, looking up at Shou Yuanzhong.

Shou Yuanzhong was enraged and was about to hurl the flames in his hand.

This single strike of his was enough to destroy the entire Arena area.

And kill everyone.

However, at this moment, two figures flashed out from the motionless and silent wooden boat.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived before Shou Yuanzhong…

Jiang Yushan and Elder Cao Mu flew in mid-air… blocking the front of Xiao Fan and the others.

"It really is you…"

Shou Yuanzhong frowned, the flames in his hand still burning fiercely.

From the moment he saw the wooden boat, he had made a deduction; within the entire Jixian Sect, only two people could bring out such a Magical Artifact.

Therefore, Elder Cao Mu's identity was easy to guess, but what he never expected was that he would actually see Jiang Yushan here.

As a renowned fourth-grade Alchemist of Wuhuang Province, Jiang Yushan attracted attention wherever he went.

He naturally recognized the other party.

"Shou Yuanzhong, I didn't expect you old fogey to still be alive. What's this? Wanting to directly bully my youngster… We old fogeys aren't dead yet."

Jiang Yushan spoke coldly, his expression haughty, although his position in mid-air was a few yards lower than Shou Yuanzhong's.

But it still allowed the other party to see his nostrils clearly…

Elder Cao Mu stood to the side without speaking, but he slapped his Storage Pouch, and thirty-six Flying Swords appeared around him.

They were all, surprisingly, Profound Rank High Grade Magical Artifacts…

Shou Yuanzhong's Face turned ashen; he snorted coldly, and the flames in his hand dissipated…

Seeing this scene, the Dragon family members below and the fleeing citizens of Jingchuan were all shocked…

Two more Xuandan Realm experts!

In the small Jingchuan City, it was rare to see even one Xuandan Realm expert in many years, yet this time, three had actually arrived.

Xiao Fan coldly glanced at Shou Yuanzhong in the air, then he cupped his fists and bowed to Jiang Yushan and Elder Cao Mu.

Jiang Yushan looked at Shou Yuanzhong and sneered, "Shou Yuanzhong, no, I think calling you 'Old Dog Shou' sounds better."

Shou Yuanzhong was furious, pointing at Jiang Yushan and shouting angrily, "You… Jiang Yushan, do you think I dare not touch you?"

Elder Cao Mu, who was to the side, interjected, "You can try and make a move."

Shou Yuanzhong's Face turned ashen…

An Artifact Refiner is different from an Alchemist…

Even if an Alchemist has a high Realm, their combat power is usually quite average; they simply have a noble status that no one wants to offend lightly.

However, an Artifact Refiner is different; among those of the same Realm, their strength belongs to the elite.

Alchemy requires fire control.

But Artifact Refining requires not only fire control but also continuous forging and tempering…

Therefore, an Artifact Refiner's Physical Body strength is generally very formidable, like Beiming's.

And Elder Cao Mu was the same; although he appeared gaunt and frail on the outside, and his Physical Body gave one the feeling of being very weak…

In reality, once a fight begins, this guy is extremely formidable.

Shou Yuanzhong took a deep breath and exhaled; he swallowed his anger.

He coldly glanced at Xiao Fan below the Arena, then shifted his gaze back to Jiang Yushan and Elder Cao Mu:

"I can refrain from making a move against him, but in tomorrow's life-and-death battle, regardless of the outcome, none of us can interfere. How about that?"

Elder Cao Mu did not make a sound.

Jiang Yushan sneered, "Old dog, do you think we are as shameless as you? Ptooey."

Upon hearing this, Shou Yuanzhong snorted coldly, "Let's go."

His figure turned into a streak of light and disappeared…

Xiao Tian glanced at Xiao Fan on the Arena, a ferocious smile appearing on his Face.

"Cherish today's time, because tomorrow you will die."

After saying this, he also turned into a streak of light and headed off in the direction of Shou Yuanzhong.

However, his speed was much slower.
