230: If she's strong enough, who would dare to mess with her? Silver Dragon Branch!

Although Shen Tianxing had a lazy smile on his face, his words, though crude, were not unreasonable—this was reality!

Whether within the Human Dynasty or in this seemingly chaotic and disorderly Sea of Buried Demons, one principle was always followed:

The strong prey on the weak, and the strong are respected!

Why did Liu Yueying leave her Sect?

Wasn't it because she was treated as a human cauldron and forced to flee?

Ultimately, it was because her strength wasn't enough; she couldn't even protect her most basic freedom!

If she were strong enough, who would dare to scheme against her?

Not to mention reaching Liu Xianyun's level, even if she only reached her current Zizai Realm Second Level, it would be enough to become a Saint of the Sect and directly secure a spot to enter Dianxing Academy.

At that time, her Sect would, in turn, revere her!

Because she would become the foundation of the Sect!

A human cauldron?

Her Sect would no longer have the guts for that!

...On the wide street, people flowed like a river!

Demons, ghost Cultivators, and Heretical Path Cultivators moved ceaselessly. Shen Tianxing looked around, his dark eyes filled with fervor, but he eventually shook his head and withdrew his gaze.

All of them were experience points!

Forget it!

It's too early to cause trouble now; delaying the opening of the Azure Dragon Secret Realm would be bad!

There will be other opportunities anyway!

No rush!

"Oh?"

Passing a stall, Shen Tianxing suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on a corner of the stall.

This stall sold some Spirit Medicine with not-too-high medicinal effects. Many Cultivators walked by, but none of them found anything appealing.

"Young Master, is there anything you like? These are all Spirit Medicine I painstakingly dug up!"

"Three-Leaf Green Lotus Root, consuming it can cleanse the marrow, broaden the Meridians, and it's a spiritual item that grows in the deep-sea wilderness, rarely encountered!"

"Only one hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones, it's a great deal!"

The Three-Leaf Green Lotus Root was indeed a type of Spirit Medicine, and there was no discrepancy with what the stall owner said—it was a rare sight!

If it truly was this Spirit Medicine, one hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones would indeed be a bargain!

However, the stall owner himself only had a Peak Zizai Realm cultivation, yet he claimed to have personally picked it from the deep-sea wilderness?

Isn't that nonsense!?

With his cultivation, he'd be eaten clean by Vicious Beasts in the sea within half a day if he entered the deep sea!

And he dares to come out and scam people with this?

Shen Tianxing glanced at him but didn't expose him!

Such transactions were inherently consensual; there was no such thing as 'scamming.'

If he could indeed trick people, that was his ability!

Whether he would be sought out for trouble was another matter entirely.

Liu Xianyun and Liu Yueying, who were beside him, saw Shen Tianxing suddenly stop and looked curious.

The item this fellow was interested in definitely wasn't ordinary!

Could there really be some incredible treasure hidden in this small stall?

The two stood silently behind him, waiting patiently.

With these two stunningly beautiful and alluring women standing there, passing Cultivators couldn't help but take a few extra glances!

Some even pretended to make a purchase, standing at nearby stalls to watch the show.

Some had a sneer on their faces, ready to see how Shen Tianxing, this fool, would be tricked!

The stall owner clearly saw that Shen Tianxing and the two women were well-dressed but couldn't sense any strong Aura from them, so he took him for a big spender.

Shen Tianxing didn't care at all; he squatted down by himself and casually rummaged through the stall.

"This piece of junk of yours, it's like the weeds in my garden, and you dare to sell it for so much?"

"Are you trying to make a fool of me? Aren't you afraid I'll overturn your stall?"

He casually picked up something that looked like a tree branch but had a few dark-gold small flowers, and he stared at the stall owner with a smile, saying.

To intimidate someone doesn't necessarily require a fierce demeanor; sometimes, feigning intimidation is even more frightening!

Of course, Shen Tianxing wouldn't actually overturn his stall; doing so was merely to tell him that he wasn't a pushover!

"Oh, you've wronged me!"

"I sell things here, and I'm absolutely fair to everyone!"

"If you think it's too expensive, I can just lower the price!"

The stall owner immediately knew that the other party had a significant background and didn't dare to overcharge, directly backing down!

Liu Xianyun and Liu Yueying, who were beside them, couldn't help but shake their heads secretly.

Compete with Shen Tianxing to see who's more cunning?

This guy is probably going to lose his pants!

"What's the price of this branch? Don't just shout out a random price. I just think these few silver flowers suit the two beautiful women beside me, so I'll take them back to feast my eyes on."

Shen Tianxing's actual target was this branch!

With the previous conversation as a prelude, the other party definitely wouldn't dare to shout out a random price!

He had plenty of Spirit Stones, but he didn't want the other party to get an extra cent!

"This... three hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones? I don't know what kind of treasure it is, but it contains Spiritual Qi and is impervious to cold and heat, so it should be a treasure."

The stall owner scratched his head, unsure of what price to ask for, so he casually quoted a price.

Three hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, he was already making a profit!

This young man was clearly well-informed and not easily fooled, to avoid any further complications.

Clatter!

Shen Tianxing didn't say another word and directly threw down a pile of Spirit Stones.

Three hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, shimmering with crystalline luster, immediately stunned the stall owner!

"It seems I asked for too little!"

A huge loss!

The stall owner's regret was self-evident; seeing how readily Shen Tianxing paid, he knew he had misjudged!

All the other Spirit Medicine at his stall combined wasn't as valuable as this!

Shen Tianxing picked up the silver flower branch and was about to get up, his heart already blooming with joy!

He had found a treasure!

"Wait, I want this Silver Dragon Branch! I'll offer ten thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones!"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

All the Cultivators who were originally watching the show were surprised by these words!

No one expected someone to offer ten thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones for the branch in Shen Tianxing's hand!

"What is this? Silver Dragon Branch?"

"It seems so. Is this Silver Dragon Branch worth ten thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones? Wouldn't that make it a spiritual item!"

"Silver Dragon Branch, a Heaven And Earth Treasure, capable of gathering the Qi of earth Dragons. Its flowers can be used in medicine to treat Divine Soul injuries, and its branches and leaves can nourish Meridians and flesh, truly a rare treasure!"

"What? He actually found a treasure? This kid has good eyesight!"

The surrounding Cultivators were all greatly astonished!

Who would have thought that a stall selling only low-grade Spirit Medicine actually hid a treasure!

At this, the stall owner's intestines turned green with regret!

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly man with gray hair striding towards the stall.

His Aura was like a flood Dragon, vast and profound; every step he took seemed to align with the natural world, his Aura like a rainbow!

This was a powerful expert at the Hengong Fifth Level!

His strength was formidable!

Merely this wouldn't have surprised everyone too much; Soul Palace Realm Cultivators were not uncommon in Wanglong City now!

But when everyone saw clearly, what astonished them was the identity of the newcomer—he was no ordinary person!

"It's him! Lei Tiangang, the Protector of Thunder Abyss City!"

"Aren't the people from Thunder Abyss City not supposed to have arrived yet? Why is he here early?"

Thunder Abyss City, one of the Eight Cities, was no less inferior to Queyue City!

Its strength was even subtly superior!

Although Lei Tiangang was only a Protector and not even a top-tier executive of Thunder Abyss City, his name represented Thunder Abyss City!

It was one of the top powers in the Outer Sea of the Sea of Buried Demons!

Who would dare to offend him?

"Young man, this Silver Dragon Branch is useless to you; I want it!"

Lei Tiangang's Aura was astonishing, and his actions were incredibly overbearing!

As soon as he arrived, he reached out and grabbed for the Silver Dragon Branch in Shen Tianxing's hand.

He didn't put them in his eyes at all!

This was clearly an attempt to seize it by force!

..."This kid is out of luck. He ran into Lei Tiangang; he probably won't be able to keep this Silver Dragon Branch!"

"Heaven And Earth Treasure belong to the capable. Thunder Abyss City's status in the Outer Sea needs no elaboration; unless one encounters powers of the Two Islands or Five Sects' caliber, no one can protect it!"

"Perhaps this kid also has a power behind him?"

"Power? Look at him, so young. If he really had a power comparable to Thunder Abyss City, wouldn't he be parading through the streets? Besides, who doesn't know those Young Masters?"

With Lei Tiangang's appearance, all the Cultivators shook their heads, some even showing schadenfreude.

This was envy striking!

Seeing Shen Tianxing pick up a treasure like the Silver Dragon Branch with a mere three hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, who wouldn't be envious?

Even if they couldn't get it, they didn't want to see Shen Tianxing get it!

Now, someone actually came to stir things up, and everyone watched with an attitude of enjoying a good show.

Lei Tiangang originally thought that what he wanted would be easily obtained, wouldn't it?

But he didn't know who he was dealing with today!

Swish!

Before Lei Tiangang's hand arrived, Shen Tianxing had already flipped his right hand, storing the Silver Dragon Branch into his sumeru ring!

He gave Lei Tiangang no chance to succeed!

What a joke, something already in hand, how could it be given away?

Shen Tianxing was never one to suffer losses!

"Young man, you dare to refuse this old man?"

Having grabbed nothing, Lei Tiangang's face instantly darkened. In this Outer Sea, there weren't no people who dared to refuse him, but there certainly weren't many!

Just the three words Thunder Abyss City were enough!

Shen Tianxing's action clearly stunned the many Cultivators around who were ready to watch the show!

This kid is a bit bold!

"What kind of thing are you? What's wrong with refusing you?"

"Just because you're from Thunder Abyss City?"

"What nerve!"

Shen Tianxing sneered, retorting without ceremony.

No one had ever been able to snatch something from his hands!

He was always the one snatching from others!

Liu Xianyun and Liu Yueying watched silently from the side, a hint of a smile in their eyes, waiting for this fellow to make a fool of himself.

"What big talk!"

"I'd like to see, since you look down on Thunder Abyss City, whether your cultivation is as hard as your mouth!"

Boom!

Lei Tiangang was, after all, no ordinary Cultivator. Even if not for his own face, he couldn't tarnish the reputation of Thunder Abyss City!

He couldn't possibly not act against someone who dared to be so disrespectful to Thunder Abyss City!

There were so many Cultivators watching!

As his words fell, a burst of Aura erupted from Lei Tiangang's body, and lightning flashed on his hands!

Powerful Aura, rolling thunder—this was the unique Cultivation Technique of Thunder Abyss City!

It was their symbol!

He was ready to strike at the slightest disagreement!

"How overbearing Lei Tiangang is; it seems this kid is finished today!"

"Only Cultivators from these big cities dare to act at this trade fair. If it were anyone else, they would probably be directly thrown out of Wanglong City by the people from Myriad Treasures Pavilion and Panlong City!"

"Just watch, the show is about to begin. Even if it's someone from Thunder Abyss City acting here, they'll have to give an explanation to Panlong City and Myriad Treasures Pavilion!"

As everyone whispered, Lei Tiangang had already made his move!

An astonishing lightning storm, transforming from his hands into an invisible thunder Dragon, enveloped Shen Tianxing!

The thunder Dragon roared, bolts of electricity flashed, and the entire Wanglong City was filled with a terrifying Aura!

In the distance, strong Auras rose, rushing towards this direction.

Clearly, as the organizers of this trade fair, the people from Panlong City and Myriad Treasures Pavilion attached great importance to it and would not allow a major battle to occur here.

If a battle between Soul Palace Realm experts broke out, the entire Wanglong City would be shattered, which no one wanted to see!

However, these people couldn't even appear in time; Lei Tiangang's thunder Dragon had already reached Shen Tianxing!

Such powerful force pushed back all the Cultivators who were watching the show!

On the long street, only Shen Tianxing, Liu Xianyun, and Liu Yueying remained standing!

"Is this Thunder Abyss City's lightning technique? It seems it's nothing special. It looks like if you want to snatch things from me, you'll have to work hard at Cultivation in your next life!"

Buzz!!

In the Void Realm, a Saber Intent rang out!

Shen Tianxing raised his hand, and a wisp of Saber Intent rose, like the moon, sharp and peerless!

In the sky, only a dazzling blade light flashed, and the daylight was almost overshadowed by this sharpness!

Boom!!!

The blade light collided with the thunder Dragon, but there was no terrifying force exploding as imagined!

The thunder Dragon let out a wail and was directly split in half by that blade light!

Bolts of lightning flashed, dissolving in the air and disappearing!

It couldn't even cause a ripple!

"How is that possible?"

"Who exactly are you!!"

Lei Tiangang's pupils constricted, and his face drastically changed when he saw his thunder Dragon being cut down by a single strike.

He knew that he had probably poked a hornet's nest!

However, among the younger generation of Cultivators, he had never seen such an unknown Cultivator!

Puff!!!

Lei Tiangang wouldn't get the answer he wanted!

Shen Tianxing's saber would not give him enough time to think; from the moment he struck, death was inevitable!

Where the blade light passed, Lei Tiangang, the Protector of Thunder Abyss City and a Hengong Fifth Level expert, was cut down!

He didn't even have a chance to react!

Hiss!!!

Seeing this scene, all the Cultivators present couldn't help but gasp, their eyes filled with horror!

"What is this kid's background? To actually possess such terrifying cultivation!"

"Killing Lei Tiangang with one strike, this kid's cultivation is so strong; at least a Soul Palace Realm Sixth Level or higher could do that, right?"

"This matter seems like it's going to get big. The Cultivators of Thunder Abyss City all have short tempers! When their people arrive, can this kid still be so unyielding?"

Everyone was greatly frightened, and some with ill intentions even hid behind the crowd, not daring to show their faces.

They were afraid that their previous malice would be discovered by Shen Tianxing.

"Sharp Saber Intent, ruthless methods, and only sixteen or seventeen years old. If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency is Shen Tianxing, one of the three 'madmen' who have recently risen to fame!"

Just when everyone thought Lei Tiangang's death was the end, a cold, indifferent voice suddenly came from not far away.

On the long street, a group of more than a dozen people walked along the street towards Shen Tianxing and his group.

This group of people was all very young, appearing to be only in their twenties.

The men were tall and straight, dressed in luxury.

The women were beautiful, with graceful figures, exuding a noble temperament.

These dozen or so young men and women all exuded a vast and astonishing Aura, like Dragons and Phoenixes among humans, incredibly proud!

"Hmm?"

Shen Tianxing looked at the newcomers with interest, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The strength and cultivation of this group of young people were not weak; some were even no weaker than Lei Tiangang, whom he had just killed!

Clearly, powerful forces stood behind each of them.

Without some capital for their arrogance, these young people would definitely not dare to meddle in others' affairs!
