"Wait!"

Seeing Xiao Wan raise her delicate fist, Qiu Ze was thrown into a complete panic.

He was backed into a corner.

Now, no matter what grand reasoning he offered, she was single-minded and determined to force him to kowtow and apologize.

If that happened, he’d lose all face!

’What should I do?’

’Should I fight this little girl?’

’She’s so young. She can’t be that strong, can she?’

’If I win, not only can I save face, but I can also take the moral high ground, put on a magnanimous display, and put an end to this whole affair.’

Qiu Ze took a deep breath, as if having made a momentous decision. "Since you insist on fighting me, I’ll give you a chance. However, we should stop before it goes too far..."

"Stop before it goes too far?"

Xiao Wan said innocently, "Alright, since you put it that way, I’ll only use seventy percent of my strength. I don’t want to hurt you too badly."

Her goal was to make Qiu Ze apologize.

Not to kill him!

After all, she was still very young.

’Seventy percent?’

Qiu Ze was delighted.

’If she’s only using seventy percent of her strength, there’s no way I’ll lose. I might even be able to crush her.’

To be on the safe side, he planned to use his full strength.

"Let’s begin!"

Qiu Ze clenched his fist, and a vast Sword Intent erupted from his palm, tearing through the surrounding air.

Palm Sword!

This was his unique ultimate technique.

Xiao Wan said, "Okay, here comes my punch!"

Before Qiu Ze could react, a small, delicate fist appeared right in front of him.

"What?"

Qiu Ze’s expression changed drastically.

Her speed was just too fast. He didn’t even have time to think before he threw his own punch with all his might.

But in the next instant, he felt a world-shattering force.

BANG!

Qiu Ze was sent flying a hundred meters, smashing heavily onto the ground. He coughed up blood and sputtered, "You... you clearly said... only seventy percent..."

THUD!

Qiu Ze collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing this, everyone in the crowd was so shocked their jaws dropped.

Qiu Ze had been completely crushed.

And his opponent had only used seventy percent of her strength.

"This..."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

The sharp-nosed, monkey-cheeked youth hurried over to Qiu Ze and checked his injuries. His face paled as he shouted, "This is bad! Senior Brother Qiu’s bones are all broken!"

"What? All his bones are broken?"

The members of the Celestial Tiger Sect looked on in disbelief.

The sharp-nosed, monkey-cheeked youth continued, "And his internal organs... Heavens, Senior Brother Qiu’s organs have been shattered!"

"Hey, can you stop talking nonsense?"

"Yeah, Senior Brother Qiu is so powerful. How could a little girl injure him so horribly?"

"Don’t tell me you’re hoping for Senior Brother Qiu to die, are you?"

"Hmph, Senior Brother Qiu must have criticized you earlier, and you’re holding a grudge. That’s why you’re making such callous remarks."

The crowd stared angrily at the sharp-nosed, monkey-cheeked youth.

The youth said coldly, "If you don’t believe me, come and see for yourselves. Senior Brother Qiu is bleeding from all seven orifices."

The crowd looked closely and saw that Qiu Ze was indeed bleeding from his seven facial orifices.

A lot of it!

This meant Qiu Ze was truly gravely injured; his life was likely hanging by a thread.

’Did I mess up?’

Xiao Wan’s eyes widened.

But she had clearly only used seventy percent of her strength and even told him beforehand. How could he have ended up like this?

’Could it be... that he was too weak?’

’That’s impossible!’

He was Er Hu, ranked second among the Celestial Gate Five Tigers, the strongest genius in the Western Profound Domain.

"This..."

For a moment, Xiao Wan didn’t know what to do.

Elder Yin walked over to Qiu Ze and carefully examined his injuries. He turned around and snarled, "You little beast, how dare you..."

BOOM!

Before he could finish his sentence, a terrifying aura exploded from Elder Yin’s body.

Because Qiu Ze was on the verge of death.

Xiao Wan explained in a low voice, "Sir, I really didn’t do it on purpose. I already held back."

"Hmph, so vicious at such a young age. I will exterminate you today!"

Elder Yin lunged, reaching for Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan was scared stiff.

Even as young as she was, she could tell this old man wanted to kill her. His eyes were bloodshot.

"Elder Yin, there’s no need for that!"

Xiao Lang stepped forward, shielding Xiao Wan.

Elder Yin said coldly, "If you protect her, this Elder will kill you too, and I’ll wipe out everyone from your Northern Profound Domain."

"Hmph?"

Xiao Lang’s face darkened, and fury ignited within him. "Since you’re an elder who shows no respect, then I won’t be polite either. You old bastard, don’t think I’m afraid to fight you."

This was his first time fighting a Martial King, and he didn’t dare to be the least bit careless.

Thus, he immediately adopted a do-or-die stance.

Even if it meant death, he had to protect Xiao Wan, the number one genius of their Xiao Family.

"True Dragon Undying Technique!"

"True Dragon Supreme Technique!"

"True Dragon..."

Xiao Lang activated several True Dragon Techniques in succession, launched a punch toward Elder Yin, and roared, "Old man, watch me crush you to death!"

"Brat, you... you dare to strike me."

Seeing Xiao Lang throw a punch at him, Elder Yin’s face turned black with rage.

He was a Martial King!

This brat actually dared to attack him, a Martial King Powerhouse. Did he have a death wish?

"You’re courting death!"

Elder Yin threw a punch in return.

BOOM!

In the blink of an eye, their fists collided.

The very world seemed to crack.

Elder Yin had thought that with his strength as a Martial King Powerhouse, he could easily block Xiao Lang’s punch and even obliterate him into a mist of blood.

But who would have known that Xiao Lang’s punch was so terrifyingly powerful that he actually struggled to block it.

BOOM!

Xiao Lang was blasted back several dozen meters, his entire right arm twisted and dripping with blood.

"Brother Lang, are you alright?"

All the Xiao Family disciples rushed to surround him.

Xiao Zhan stepped forward and asked with concern, "Xiao Lang, how are you feeling? Do you need to treat your wounds right away?"

"No need. My muscles are just torn and injured."

Xiao Lang stared at Elder Yin and said, "Patriarch, this old bastard Yin is very strong. I can’t beat him. He could kill me in ten moves."

"If you can’t beat him, you can’t beat him. Just consider it a lesson learned."

Xiao Zhan clapped Xiao Lang on the shoulder. "Remember this, and don’t be so reckless in the future. I hope you’ll learn from this shame and strive to be stronger."

"Learn from this shame?"

Hearing this, the people from the Hua Celestial Sect, Bai Luoxue, and the others were completely baffled.

Even Fairy Jinghong’s mouth fell open.

He withstood a full-power blow from a Martial King Powerhouse, and now he’s supposed to learn from the ’shame’?

What the hell!

This is considered a disgrace?

This is clearly the highest honor!

Even if Fairy Jinghong, who was at the Martial Monarch Perfection Realm, were to fight herself, she might not have fared as well as Xiao Lang. She might even have been killed instantly.

You have to understand, the opponent was a Martial King!

At that moment, everyone’s minds were buzzing. They felt as if their entire worldview was about to shatter.

"Yin, I, the Patriarch, will fight you."

Xiao Zhan said as he stepped forward.

"Fine by me! As if I’m afraid of you!"

Elder Yin snorted coldly and raised his hand, about to engage Xiao Zhan in a deadly battle.

But just as he was about to strike...

Drip!

A drop of blood slipped from between Elder Yin’s fingers and fell to the ground.

"This... I’m injured?"

Elder Yin stared intently at the drop of blood.

He stood there, completely frozen.

Only then did he realize that his arm was trembling violently and felt numb!
