177: Chapter 177 So what if you're extraordinary? Facing a second-level Profound Realm expert.

Lin Yuan took Mu Qianqian's hand and gave her a reassuring look.

Just then.

The crescent-shaped insignia on the massive warship in the sky suddenly opened like a hatch, and over a dozen powerful experts immediately flew out.

Leading them was a Middle-aged man with a noble aura and elegant bearing, followed by an old man and a squad of attendants.

As soon as the Middle-aged man appeared, his gaze immediately locked onto Mu Qianqian, his eyes shimmering with tears of excitement.

"Qianqian, I've finally found you!"

The Middle-aged man immediately stepped forward, his voice trembling.

"Uncle Jiang!"

Mu Qianqian's voice trembled as well, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Good, good! Don't cry, Qianqian. Uncle Jiang has found you. Don't be sad anymore. I know you've suffered a lot while being stranded out here. I'm taking you home right now!"

As the Middle-aged man spoke, he reached out to take Mu Qianqian's arm, but Lin Yuan pulled her behind him.

"Sorry, Qianqian hasn't agreed to go with you yet. Please show some respect," Lin Yuan said calmly.

From the moment he appeared until now, the Middle-aged man hadn't even spared Lin Yuan a glance, as if there were no one else there.

"Who are you? How dare you block me?" the Middle-aged man's face instantly chilled.

"Kid Lin, this person is at the Ninth Level of the Profound Mystery Realm and is extremely powerful. Don't do anything reckless!" Chu Yunfeng hurried to warn him.

Mu Qianqian quickly stepped forward and introduced him shyly:

"Uncle Jiang, this is Lin Yuan, my... my boyfriend. Lin Yuan, this is Uncle Jiang, my father's personal guard and the uncle who watched me grow up."

Upon hearing the word 'boyfriend', Uncle Jiang's expression immediately turned gloomy.

"Qianqian, this is nonsense! What kind of backwater place is this? How could you find a boyfriend here? Have you forgotten that you have an engagement with the Young Master of Sirius?" Uncle Jiang said with some displeasure.

"Uncle Jiang, don't you know me? Why do you think I ran away from home? It's because I don't want to marry the Young Master of Sirius! Don't push me, or I won't go back with you!" Mu Qianqian said angrily.

Before Uncle Jiang could speak, the old man behind him stepped forward and shouted angrily:

"What? Is Eldest Miss Mu looking down on our Sirius Alliance? Our Young Master's willingness to marry you is already giving the Haoyue Star Alliance plenty of face. How dare you think of breaking the engagement?"

"Are you from the Sirius Alliance? That's right! I'm breaking the engagement! I will not marry your Young Master!"

Mu Qianqian said bluntly, giving no face to the old man or the Sirius Alliance behind him.

"Hmph! Eldest Miss Mu, whether you marry or not isn't up to you! An engagement with the Sirius Alliance isn't something you can just back out of! You'd better come back with me obediently, or I'll tie you up and take you back by force if I have to!"

The old man stepped forward, reaching out to grab Mu Qianqian's wrist. Even Uncle Jiang, who was standing by, didn't speak up to stop him.

"Old Bastard, if those dog paws of yours reach out any further, I'll chop them off for you!"

Just then, Lin Yuan spoke, his voice extremely cold.

Before the old man could respond, Uncle Jiang barked angrily, "Kid! You don't know the heights of the heavens or the depths of the earth. We are Transcendent experts, not ants of the Mortal Realm like you. Since you're our lady's friend, I won't hold this against you. Leave this place immediately!"

As Uncle Jiang spoke, he shot a look at Lin Yuan and Mu Qianqian; his actions were clearly an attempt to save Lin Yuan.

Although he didn't approve of Mu Qianqian and Lin Yuan being together, he despised the people of the Sirius Alliance even more. Although this old man's strength wasn't that high, he had the Sirius Alliance behind him.

After all, Lin Yuan was someone the young lady cared about; he couldn't just let him be killed. If the lady refused to go back with him because of it, things would become difficult. Would he really have to tie her up?

"Lin Yuan, you mustn't be impulsive. Don't worry, I won't go with him!" Mu Qianqian also urged Lin Yuan to stay calm.

"Qianqian, I'm not being impulsive. Leave everything to me, don't worry," Lin Yuan patted her hand.

"But..."

"No more buts. I said I would earn your father's approval. If I can't even deal with one of their dogs, how can I talk about marrying you?" Lin Yuan smiled.

"You little bastard! You dare call me a dog?! I'll have your life!!"

The old man roared in anger and was about to strike when Uncle Jiang stopped him.

"Elder Liu, give the Mu family some face. Don't strike. Why get angry at a local who hasn't seen the world? Calm down, calm down..." Uncle Jiang said with a forced smile.

Just then, three figures arrived quickly, but they stopped several kilometers away, not daring to approach.

It was the three Martial Gods of Great Xia. Having sensed the Transcendent aura, they had come together. But even though they were here, they didn't dare get close, fearing that a Transcendent expert might crush them on a whim if they were displeased.

"Little bastard! For the sake of the Mu family, I won't settle scores with you. Otherwise, even if all the experts on your entire planet gathered together, it wouldn't be enough for me to kill! Run for your life now!" the old man said arrogantly.

Hearing this, the three Martial Gods in the distance were shocked. Had Lin Yuan offended a Transcendent right from the start? This was too intense; if a Transcendent was provoked, the entire Blue Star would have no peace...

"You won't settle scores with me? Just you? You want to tie Qianqian up and take her back, right? Then I'll see if you even have a life left to go back with!!"

Lin Yuan pointed at Elder Liu's nose and spoke in a frigid tone.

"Infuriating! Absolutely infuriating! Lord Jiang, don't blame me for not giving you face. I must slay this brat today!!!"

Elder Liu's terrifying aura erupted, pressing down on Lin Yuan.

"Kid! You really don't know when to quit! Hmph!"

Uncle Jiang snorted coldly at Lin Yuan and stepped aside. The Sirius Alliance was powerful, and he couldn't interfere too much. It wasn't worth offending the Sirius Alliance for some arrogant kid...

Seeing Uncle Jiang step aside, Elder Liu immediately became arrogant:

"Little bastard! I'll let you experience right now what it means to be Transcendent!"

"Is being Transcendent a big deal? Then I'll slay a Transcendent today and see what's what..."

Lin Yuan's swimming dragon sword unsheathed and into his hand as the spiritual energy within his body circulated frantically.

Chu Yunfeng had already told him that the opponent was at the Mystic Realm Second Level; otherwise, Lin Yuan wouldn't have been so reckless.

The three Martial Gods watching from afar retreated several more kilometers in terror. With the might of a Transcendent, even the slightest aftershock was more than they could bear.

"Lin Yuan is too impulsive. He's actually going to fight a Transcendent?"

"It's over, it's all over! A Transcendent isn't going to go on a killing spree on Blue Star, is he?"

"I actually think Lin Yuan might win. He's created quite a few miracles. Didn't the insufferable Tu Zhenxiong also die at his hands?" Ice-Cold Frost still held onto a sliver of hope.

"Miss Xia, how can Tu Zhenxiong compare to a Transcendent? Either way, things are looking grim for Lin Yuan this time..."

...

"You want to slay me? Hahaha... That's hilarious! You ignorant local, how could you possibly know the heaven-and-earth difference between the Mortal Realm and the Transcendent? Now, die!"

Elder Liu sneered and struck out with his palm toward Lin Yuan...

Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged. In an instant, his eyes turned into blood-colored vortices, blood waves surged beneath his feet, and the heavenly god phantom gazed from behind him.

He slowly raised his right palm and struck out.

Suddenly, a massive silver handprint emerged in the void, meeting the opponent's palm strike head-on...
