268: Mr. Wan stepped in

Instantly killing an Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm Great Demon!

The Extreme Realm Great Demon that had everyone struggling in a bitter battle was insta-killed by Ancestor Pei with a casual strike!

Everyone was shocked, but they couldn't make a sound.

After Ancestor Pei dealt with the Great Demon, he looked up at the void: "The Pei family has been destroyed. Can this matter be settled?"

Just as his voice fell, a Middle-aged Man walked out. Upon his arrival, he gave a casual wave, and Ancestor Pei's pressure instantly dissipated!

Like drowning victims clutching a life-saving straw, everyone began to gasp for air frantically.

Ancestor Pei's gaze fell on the Middle-aged Man, his eyes narrowing: "A Re-cultivator."

The newcomer was none other than Su Yunsheng!

The youngest Ninth-Rank of this era!

Su Yunsheng looked down at Ancestor Pei and said indifferently, "Your current strength is not even twenty percent of what it was."

Ancestor Pei chuckled softly, "That may be so, but you still cannot kill this old man."

Su Yunsheng's eyes narrowed, "Shall we try?"

Ancestor Pei pointed at Murong Hai and the others, saying, "If we fight, all these people will die."

Su Yunsheng said flatly, "So, you're threatening me?"

Ancestor Pei said in a deep voice, "The Pei family has already been wiped out by you. This matter can end here!"

He didn't step in to stop The Authorities from destroying the Pei family precisely because he wanted to leave a way out for himself!

For him, whatever happened to the Pei family didn't matter much!

At his realm, things like family ties no longer held any meaning!

His goal was longevity! To break through the limits!

Only by living could he break through!

Thus, he showed his sincerity!

Su Yunsheng sneered, "Your Pei family not only intentionally harmed the geniuses of the Dragon Kingdom but also colluded with a Cult, making you traitors to the Human Race. And you want to just brush it under the rug?"

Ancestor Pei's eyes narrowed, a flash of killing intent appearing: "Then we shall perish together!"

A wave of killing intent swept through the area, instantly making everyone's bodies turn cold!

They had a premonition that if Ancestor Pei made even a slight move, they would all die!

Fang Bai, Murong Hai, and the other experts at the peak of the Eighth-Rank showed looks of defiance, frantically using their own power to clash against his!

So what if the opponent was powerful? They never believed in fate, much less would they yield to reality!

Su Yunsheng was about to speak but suddenly paused.

Because an elderly man had appeared before him.

Old Man Wan!

Old Man Wan was still wearing a Zhongshan Suit.

"Master!"

Below, Fang Bai suddenly greeted Old Man Wan as if he were having a fit!

Everyone: ???

Their expressions were strange.

Master?

Holy crap! Buddy, are you serious?

The experts of the other Noble Families suddenly looked serious!

They naturally knew of Old Man Wan, who guarded the Dragon Kingdom single-handedly and intimidated all the Noble Families!

And now, this young man was calling him "Master"!

He's definitely well-connected!

"Master! As expected of my Master!"

Qi Tian, in the crowd, suddenly said excitedly.

Su Su looked at him with a strange expression: "When did you become his disciple?"

Qi Tian said without blushing, "Old Bai calls the old gentleman Master. Old Bai and I are like brothers; his Master is my Master too!"

Everyone: ...Your skin is so thick that I cannot compare!

Old Man Wan naturally heard Fang Bai's shout. He glanced at him, then revealed a gentle smile, sounding somewhat gratified: "You've progressed very quickly."

It had to be said that even an elder like him was somewhat surprised by Fang Bai's growth rate.

Hearing Old Man Wan's words, everyone looked moved.

Old Man Wan didn't deny it, which meant the two really were in a master-disciple relationship!

Holy moly!

Su Yunsheng also looked at Fang Bai. It hadn't even been a few months since their last meeting, yet this kid had already reached such a level!

Even more impressive than when he was young!

Damn! This kid actually managed to pull off a flex!

But he seemed to remember that this kid still owed him a favor?

Hehehe!

Ancestor Pei saw he was being ignored, and his mouth twitched. He glanced at Fang Bai with a meaningful gaze.

"Heroes in this world are as numerous as crucian carp crossing a river, but those who transform into dragons are few and far between!"

"Old Man Pei."

From above, Old Man Wan spoke.

Ancestor Pei looked at him. He knew that whether he lived or died depended on this old man.

He didn't fear Su Yunsheng, but he was wary of this old man!

Even though he was clearly a generation younger, he couldn't see through his depth. In their last encounter, he had been at a disadvantage—an absolute disadvantage!

Old Man Wan said slowly, "The Pei family's extermination is well-deserved."

Ancestor Pei remained silent, clearly agreeing with this point.

Old Man Wan said indifferently, "If you want to live, you can, but there is a price to pay."

Ancestor Pei asked deeply, "What do you want?"

Old Man Wan slowly raised his hand and pointed at the Blood Ghoul Strange Space: "The origin of all this is here. Now, destroy it, and you may live."

Hearing this, Ancestor Pei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought he'd have to pay a heavy price, but he didn't expect it to be this.

Ancestor Pei nodded, "I can do that."

Old Man Wan added, "Perhaps I didn't make myself clear. Destroy this Alien Space, including that Demon God!"

Ancestor Pei: ... The Blood Ghoul Demon God was the one he had severely wounded back then, so it was naturally still alive.

After some consideration, Ancestor Pei nodded, "Fine!"

Old Man Wan said, "I'll give you two hours."

Ancestor Pei nodded and said nothing, turning to leave.

"Wait!"

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked over and saw that the speaker was still Fang Bai.

Fang Bai looked at Old Man Wan and said, "Master, I'm going too."

Old Man Wan glanced at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Alright."

He then looked at Ancestor Pei and said, "This little fellow wants to see the world. Protect him on the way."

Ancestor Pei glanced at Fang Bai and said, "A burden. I cannot guarantee his safety."

Fang Bai's face darkened: "Old Geezer, if you don't know how to speak properly, then don't. Thanks!"

Damn it, he's the protagonist; how could he be a burden?

Old Man Wan said indifferently, "If something happens to him, something happens to you!"

Ancestor Pei's eyelid twitched, "That's going too far."

Old Man Wan said flatly, "I'm happy to do so. Not happy? Then hit me!"

Ancestor Pei: ...Damn it! If I could beat you, I'd definitely drag you down with me in a self-destruction!

In the end, Ancestor Pei's anger flared and then subsided as he said indifferently, "Fine, I'll give you face."

He glanced at Fang Bai and said tonelessly, "Kid, keep up."

He turned, his figure already fading!

Such speed!

Old Man Wan said with a smile, "I hope this helps you."

Fang Bai nodded quickly, "Thank you, Old Man!"

He soared into the sky, transforming into a bolt of lightning as he dashed into the Blood Ghoul Strange Space!

Peace returned to the field.

Murong Hai and several other Heavenly Kings flew over to Old Man Wan and bowed slightly.

Old Man Wan looked at Murong Hai and said slowly, "It might not necessarily be a bad thing."

Murong Hai nodded, "I haven't taken it to heart."

Having just broken through to the Extreme Realm, he had encountered the suppression of a Ninth-Rank. Normally, this defeat would affect his state of mind, as the gap between them was simply too vast—despairingly vast!

However, it also made him cast aside all contempt and complacency, like a bucket full of water being poured out completely!

The Eighth-Rank is only the beginning!

Or perhaps, the Ninth-Rank is not necessarily the end!
