Seeing the person that appeared before the Chu Heavenly Clansmen, not only were the crowd shocked, but even the Chu Heavenly Clansmen were shocked.
The reason for that was because this person was the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster.
But, the Chu Heavenly Clan clearly had no association with the Red-dress Holy Land.
Why would they come to their aid?
âMeddling in other peopleâs business?â
The Xuanming Familyâs family head narrowed his brows and displayed his displeasure.
The Xuanming Family was known for their arrogance.
As such, while theyâd heard the rumors regarding the Red-dress Holy Land, they had never bothered to learn the details of those events.
All they knew was that the All-heaven Starfield has had a change in leadership, and its new ruler was the Red-dress Holy Land.
However, according to the rumors he had heard, the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster was only a rank three Utmost Exalted.
The reason why the Red-dress Holy Land was able to defeat the All-heaven Sect was because they were aided by an expert.
However, that expert was not someone from the Red-dress Holy Land.
Thus, he believed that the Red-dress Holy Land had merely taken advantage of the situation and picked up its overlord status.
As such, not only did the Xuanming Familyâs family head not fear the Red-dress Holy Land, but he instead looked down on them.
He felt that even if the Red-dress Holy Land was stronger than the Chu Heavenly Clan, they would not be too much stronger.
âI am not meddling in other peopleâs business. Itâs just that I am unable to put up with you bullying others so excessively,â said Han Xiu.
âWhat an inability to put up with bullying excessively. In this world, there are countless things that one cannot put up with.â
However... for some things, they are not things that you can involve yourself in just because you want to.â
âIf you want to pretend to be a benevolent individual, youâll have to pay the price to do so.â
âBang~~~â
As the Xuanming Familyâs family head spoke, he unleashed his oppressive might and shot it straight toward the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster.
At practically the same time, Han Xiu also unleashed her oppressive might.
In the blink of an eye, the two oppressive mights collided.
Although their oppressive might was formless, the collision of their oppressive mights caused even the surrounding space to distort.
As their oppressive mights wreaked havoc, heaven and earth started to fluctuate. Everyone present could sense how powerful they were.
âIt would appear that youâre really planning to take me on?â
The Xuanming Familyâs family head narrowed his brows. The displeasure on his face grew even more intense.
âYou can give it a try.â The Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster was not afraid in the slightest.
With this, their oppressive might grew more and more powerful.
Even though they did not actually start fighting, their opposing oppressive mights became exceptionally violent.
The Chu Heavenly Clansmen and the people from the Xuanming Family were all being repressed by the oppressive might, and forced to retreat.
However, the Xuanming Familyâs family head was gaining an advantage over Han Xiu.
As this collision of the oppressive mights continued, the calm on Han Xiuâs face disappeared. Merely this confrontation of the oppressive might was starting to force her to put forth a strenuous amount of effort.
Even the crowd were able to tell that the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmasterâs oppressive might was inferior to the Xuanming Familyâs family headâs oppressive might.
This was still only a confrontation of oppressive mights. If they were to truly fight, the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster would definitely not be a match for the Xuanming Familyâs family head.
âIs this Red-dress Holy Land truly the power that defeated the All-heaven Sect?â
âWhy would their headmaster not even be a match for the Xuanming Familyâs family head?â
âDidnât the All-heaven Sect teach the Xuanming Family a major lesson back then?â
Sensing the change to the oppressive mights, the crowd began to wag their tongues again.
âYouâre still not backing out?â
âSeeing that youâre a woman, this old man did not directly attack you.â
âAre you insisting on making this old man publicly defeat you?â The Xuanming Familyâs family head spoke.
He spoke as if he were being lenient toward the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster because she was of the fairer sex.
However, his words were not spoken through voice transmission. Instead, he spoke them out loud for everyone to hear.
This was not an act of modesty at all. He was clearly trying to show off how powerful he was.
Even though the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster didnât say anything and looked unmoved, she was actually starting to panic.
She actually didnât know much about the Chu Heavenly Clan.
When she had first heard about the Chu Heavenly Clan, it was from Yin Zhuanghong.
Yin Zhuanghong told her that a very powerful person of the younger generation by the name of Chu Feng had appeared in the Ancestral Martial Starfieldâs Chu Heavenly Clan.
But, the reason why Han Xiu was helping the Chu Heavenly Clan was not because of Yin Zhuanghong.
Instead, it was because of Zhao Hong.
Normally, the grand occasion this time around would be the optimal opportunity to reveal the strength of the Red-dress Holy Land. As such, Zhao Hong shouldâve come.
However, it just so happened that she was about to enter closed-door training when they received the Purple Star Hallâs invitation.
As her closed-door training was very important and might end up affecting her future cultivation should she miss it, Zhao Hong had decided that she would enter closed-door training and have Han Xiu lead the people from the Red-dress Holy Land to participate in this grand occasion instead.
Before Zhao Hong entered closed-door training, she had mentioned one thing to Han Xiu in passing.
She told her to make sure to befriend the Chu Heavenly Clan, and not to have conflicts with them should she encounter them.
Apart from that, she didnât say anything else.
As such, the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster had no idea that Asura, the person who had helped them many times, was actually the Chu Heavenly Clanâs Chu Feng.
She was purely coming to the Chu Heavenly Clanâs aid because Zhao Hong had told her to befriend them.
Because of Zhao Hongâs order, she realized that she must possess some sort of relationship with the Chu Heavenly Clan.
She was merely helping the Chu Heavenly Clan because she was giving face to Zhao Hong.
However, she was feeling slightly regretful of her decision now.
She was able to sense that the Xuanming Familyâs family head was indeed more powerful than her.
She was now riding atop a tiger and unable to get off.
As she had already stepped in, if she were to cower to him now, she would be ridiculed by others.
But, if they were to truly fight and she ended up being defeated, it would inevitably damage the reputation of the Red-dress Holy Land.
Han Xiu found herself stuck between a rock and a hard place. She had no idea what she should do.
âXuan Tianpeng, oh how mighty you are.â
Right at this moment, a figure landed beside the Red-dress Holy Landâs headmaster.
When that figure landed, the Xuanming Familyâs family headâs oppressive might was immediately suppressed.
Not only that, but he also found himself unable to stand firm, and was forced to move back repeatedly.
The reason for that was because an oppressive might even more powerful than his own had appeared before him.
It was a rank four Utmost Exaltedâs oppressive might.
Upon looking closely, everyone recognized the identity of the person that appeared.
He was the Miao Heavenly Clanâs Clan Chief.
âYou! Youâre also planning to meddle in other peopleâs business?â
Seeing the Miao Heavenly Clanâs Clan Chief, the Xuanming Familyâs family head revealed an even uglier expression.
Not only that, but he also began to panic in his heart.
The Miao Heavenly Clan had always been stronger than his Xuanming Family. They were an existence that he was unwilling to provoke.
âMy Miao Heavenly Clan has a friendly relationship with the Red-dress Holy Land. Iâd like to ask you to give this old man face, and not make things difficult for the Red-dress Holy Land.â
âElse, even if this old man is to meddle in other peopleâs business, you would not be able to stop me,â the Miao Heavenly Clanâs Clan Chief said with a beaming smile.
âYou...â
Hearing those words, the Xuanming Familyâs family head was so furious that he nearly vomited blood.
The front half of that Miao Heavenly Clanâs words were rather courteous.
However, his closing statement, that âyou would not be able to stop me,â was simply a slap in the face to his Xuanming Family.
