15: Bullying the weak?

"Heavens!"

"Is there some deep-seated hatred between these members of the Shi family? They are dead set on killing each other!"

"You didn't know?"

"These two were mortal enemies before!"

"When Shi Tian was kicked out of the family, Shi Jian certainly didn't miss the chance to kick him while he was down!"

"..."

Seeing Shi Jian fighting with his life on the line, the crowd couldn't stop gasping in surprise.

Most of the previous matches had been mere sparring sessions, with very few injuries.

Until this match, where the two were trading heavy blows.

It was absolutely thrilling!

And now, Shi Jian was even willing to destroy his own Foundation just to kill Shi Tian!

This made the onlookers grow increasingly excited!

"Revered Master, can I kill him?"

Facing the menacing Ancient Cauldron, Shi Tian didn't panic at all; a hint of ruthless killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"You can!"

"Go ahead and do it. Whatever happens, your Revered Master will back you up!"

"If I can't handle it, there's still the Old Ancestor!"

Lin Chen smiled and immediately agreed.

"Good!"

With his Revered Master's promise, Shi Tian became full of confidence!

"Senior Sister, do you think Shi Tian can withstand this Move?"

Seeing such a terrifying Move, Ke Ke was also quite frightened.

"I don't know either..."

Jiang Xue's expression was grave. With her insight, she could see that Shi Tian's strength was clearly higher than Shi Jian's.

But... whether he could withstand this Move, she wasn't sure.

While the two watched tensely, the Ancient Cauldron smashed directly toward Shi Tian with unstoppable momentum!

Everyone thought Shi Tian would surely dodge in a panic!

To their surprise, Shi Tian didn't avoid it; instead, he charged straight toward the descending cauldron!

"What?!"

"He actually wants to tank the Ancient Cauldron with his Physical Body?!"

Everyone's eyes widened.

"Supreme Indestructible Body!"

Shi Tian let out a roar and blocked the Ancient Cauldron directly with his body!

"Bang—"

It sounded like a massive collision against some incredibly hard metal, letting out a loud bang!

The scene of Shi Tian being smashed to pieces by the Ancient Cauldron did not happen!

Instead, the cauldron was blocked by Shi Tian's body, coming to a sudden halt in mid-air and stopping its rotation!

"Ah—"

The massive backlash caused Shi Jian to spit out blood uncontrollably as he fell straight from the air.

"This... is just too ridiculous!"

"They are both in the Late Stage Void Refinement, how can the gap be this huge!"

"Their strengths are on completely different levels!"

"..."

The scene was in an uproar.

Only now did many realize that Shi Tian had been humiliating Shi Jian all along!

Otherwise, with his strength, he could have defeated his opponent in just a few Moves!

"My turn!"

Shi Tian smiled coldly, and the massive Ancient Cauldron was snatched by a giant hand he had conjured!

Then, he smashed it down fiercely in the direction Shi Jian was falling!

"Boom!"

The arena, reinforced by special Laws, was instantly smashed into a massive crater, with dust and smoke rising everywhere!

By the time Shi Tian slowly retracted the cauldron, Shi Jian's head and body in the crater had already been smashed to a pulp!

A Primordial Spirit scrambled out in terror!

It fled blindly, attempting to escape!

"Trying to leave?"

Shi Tian wasn't going to let him escape; he pressed two fingers together and pointed forward!

A beam of red light shot out from his fingertip!

"Uncles, save me—"

Shi Jian was terrified; the imminent threat of death made his scalp tingle, and he let out a shrill scream!

"You brat, how dare you!"

Several Family Elders of the Shi family were furious!

They hurriedly acted, wanting to stop Shi Tian!

But... it was already too late!

The red light pierced right through the Primordial Spirit; Shi Jian gave a miserable scream before turning into a cloud of red mist and vanishing!

Shi Jian... dead!

By the time the Shi Family Elders arrived, not a single trace of Shi Jian remained!

"Shi Tian!"

"How vicious of you!"

"He was your cousin! This was just an exchange and sparring session, yet you actually killed him!"

"It seems the Eldest Young Master was right back then; you are a person with a heart like a snake or scorpion! It was you who wanted to harm the Eldest Young Master in an attempt to seize the position of Young Family Master!"

"Traitor!"

"Shameless!"

"..."

The Shi Family Elders were beyond furious, hurling accusations at Shi Tian!

"I have no cousin!"

"I have long since ceased to be a member of the Shi family!"

"I don't want to argue about what happened in the past anymore!"

"Just now, he was the one who wanted to kill me, and I simply killed him in return!"

"If you want to blame someone, blame his lack of skill!"

In the past, these people were Shi Tian's Elders, and he would have respected them, swallowing his grievances even if he were wronged!

But now... Shi Tian had absolutely no connection to them!

They were complete strangers, and Shi Tian would not indulge them at all!

"Elder Lu!"

"Shi Tian has broken the rules of the Exchange Conference; he should have his bones stripped and soul extracted, and be executed on the spot!"

"Yes, a life for a life!"

Seeing they couldn't do anything to Shi Tian, the Shi Family Elders immediately pressured Lu Nanzi!

But Lu Nanzi didn't fall for it at all, saying indifferently, "In fights between the younger generation, it's inevitable that casualties occur when tempers flare. This is perfectly normal!"

"Elder Lu, are you saying you don't want to get involved?"

The Shi Family Elders' eyes widened.

They couldn't believe it; he was clearly the one who announced the conference rules, stating that anyone who took a life would be severely punished!

But now, he was acting as if he hadn't seen anything!

"This old man has limited energy and cannot manage so many trivial matters!"

"If you want to seek justice yourselves, that is your own business and has nothing to do with me or the Ancient Moon Tower!"

"But don't blame me for not warning you; if something happens, you will bear the consequences yourselves!"

Lu Nanzi snorted, not caring about the Shi family members at all!

He more concerned with not offending the Wending Sect!

If necessary, he would even personally step in to wipe out the Shi family members!

"Fine, fine, fine!"

"Since Elder Lu doesn't want to get involved, then our Shi family will clean house today!"

"Even the Family Head won't be able to find fault with us later!"

The leading Family Elder, who clearly held a high status, gave the order directly.

Several Elders who were on good terms with Shi Peng were overjoyed upon hearing this; it was the perfect opportunity to eliminate the Eldest Young Master's greatest threat!

Trading Shi Jian's life for Shi Tian's—

It was worth it!

"Kill him!"

Most of the Shi Family Elders were in the Integration Realm, with several in the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

Wouldn't killing Shi Tian, who was in the Late Stage Void Refinement, be as easy as flipping a hand?

The Family Elders all attacked at once!

In an instant, the sky and earth changed color, and the sun and moon lost their luster!

However, just as their attacks were about to land on Shi Tian, suddenly—

A white-robed figure blocked the way in front of Shi Tian, effortlessly neutralizing all the attacks!

Then, Lin Chen unleashed a sword glow!

The sword's power was astonishing, tearing apart the arena along its path!

The sword momentum, comparable to a full-powered strike from the Peak of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, lunged straight at the Shi family members!

The Shi Family Elders were pale with fright and hurriedly joined forces to set up a defensive barrier!

"Boom—"

The sword's power struck the defensive barrier, shattering it with unstoppable force!

Its remaining power didn't diminish as it continued toward the Shi family members!

"Pfft, pfft, pfft—"

Several Family Elders in the Integration Realm were the first to fail, spitting out blood and falling to the ground like kites with broken strings!

Their fate was unknown!

The other Elders in the Tribulation Crossing Realm weren't doing much better, their blood churning and a metallic taste filling their throats!

Terrifying!

Utterly terrifying!

Only after exerting great effort did they finally block the sword glow.

The Family Elders stared, absolutely horrified!

"Peak Integration Stage?!"

"How is this possible?!"

Everyone was shocked!

The opponent was clearly only at the Peak Integration Stage, yet with just a casual sword strike, so many experts from the Integration Realm and Tribulation Crossing Realm joined forces and could barely withstand it!

This unheard-of situation completely overturned everyone's understanding!

The onlookers were dumbfounded with shock!

"Revered Master!"

Shi Tian was overjoyed.

"Are you all trying to bully the small?"

"This Sect Master will not allow it!"

"It just so happens that I also want to stretch my muscles, so I'll play with you all properly!"

Lin Chen gave a faint smile.
