Chapter 17: The Tide Turns

ninth level."Oh! What's this!""Get out of my body!!"Within the darkness, a shriek of unimaginable agony echoed.Hai Gonggong was startled and confused. But seeing the black qi growing more and more, th...Let go of that girl!

Just as Nie Kuang was about to insult Wang Chan, at the moment of utter despair for the woman, a youthful voice came from outside the valley.

Nie Kuang's figure paused slightly. Interrupted at a crucial moment, he glared angrily.

The rest of the Nie family also looked surprised, their faces hard to look at.

No matter what, it's not a glorious thing. Who dared to touch the dirty head of their Nie clan

"The voice sounded familiar, who came to save me"

Wang Chan, with a heart as dead as ashes, opened his eyes.

In the eyes of everyone, a young man in black walked out from the fields. His face was handsome, with a hint of youthfulness, and his eyes were full of coldness. At sixteen or seventeen years old, he already had an air of jade-like elegance.

"Wang Xuan!" What was meant to be a hopeful Wang Chan, upon seeing the young man cried out in surprise and paled again: "How did you get here, run away quickly!"

Wang Chan's heart ached. She had thought it was some powerful figure from her family, but it turned out to be the wastrel, the young clan leader, Mu Qingyue's dissolute husband.

You are right, the boy in black is Wang Xuan who came here after hearing the sound.

"You bunch of goddamn animals!" Wang Xuan said coldly.

Even though he was the son of the Demon Emperor in his past life, feared by everyone and considered a ruthless demon fetus, he never thought of doing such evil deeds as raping women.

These Nie clan members actually committed such vile acts in broad daylight. It's really hard to imagine that humans could do this, they are worse than animals, despicable!

"Is female beauty really that appealing" Wang Xuan couldn't understand. In fact, he had once rejected a queen who ruled the lower realms and had slept with him by kicking her off his bed out of disgust.

He was not a meddling person, other people's lives and deaths had nothing to do with him. Normal fights, even if the most beautiful woman died before his eyes, he would remain indifferent.

Ke Wangchan was Mu Qingyue's best friend, and he strongly disapproved of the things these Nie Clan members had done.

The Nie clan members looked at each other with strange expressions. If it were Wang Ya and the others, they might still care, but this Wang Xuan...

"Well, well, if it isn't someone I know. It's our little benefactor!"

"Goodness gracious, back then when our clan's young miss awakened her martial soul and faced danger, it was thanks to your help, Wang Xuan."

"Silly boy, are you trying to be a hero again"

"Keke, how much ability do you have to accomplish great things Weigh yourself carefully."

Several members of the Nie clan, men and women, laughed in a strange way, their eyes flashing with a dangerous gleam as they looked at Wang Xuan with ill intentions.

Wang Chan cried out anxiously, "Don't come over! These people will kill you!"

The youth stepping up was a surprise to Wang Chan, who couldn't help but feel grateful.

Although she shared the same bloodline as Wang Xuan, she had been making a living outside the clan since childhood and rarely interacted with him. She only knew that he was a spoiled, idle playboy.

Before, Wang Chan had a very bad impression of Wang Xuan. In her eyes, Wang Xuan was not worthy of Mu Qingyue at all. The husband of her best friend was just an incompetent man.

He's got no integrity, no sense of responsibility, and no martial arts skills. It's a complete waste that my friend married him.

"Hee hee, Wang Xuan, do you want to save her In consideration of your affection for my tribe's pearl, as long as you kneel down now and crawl under me, I might consider letting her go." Nie Kuang winked.

"Yes, if you want to save her, crawl under our legs, haha~~"

Nie's clan members, laughing, urged him on.

Wang Xuan walked calmly into the valley. The remaining memory only recalled that he had helped the Nie family's young lady in the past, but the specifics were gone.

The awakening of a martial spirit requires an individual's soul to enter the God Ruins and seek out their own martial spirit. Coincidentally, when Wang Xuan first entered the God Ruins, he encountered Nie Xiansang who was in imminent danger.

At that time, the divine ruins appeared with a spatial rift. Nie Xiangsang's soul was about to be pulled into the rift. Out of his deep love for Nie Xiangsang, he didn't hesitate to rush to save him.

Memory only retained this fragment, and how to save him was not remembered. Afterwards, the two woke up in the awakening ceremony formation. Nie Xiangsang had a rare martial soul in the world, while Wang Xuan became a waste.

"Why did the ruins collapse What happened in that lost memory I should ask that indigenous girl later." Wang Xuan thought to himself, walking step by step towards Wang Chan, ignoring the ridicule of the surrounding Nie people.

Nie Kuang: "Can you hear us talking, or are you mute"

"Wang Xuan, run away! They will kill you!" Wang Chan shouted.

Is he crazy Has he gone insane after being scared by monsters in the Wan Yao Mountains these past few days, completely oblivious to the situation here at the granary

Phew!

As Wang Chan seethed with anger, a gentle breeze ruffled a strand of her hair.

"Pfft!"

Originally, Nie Kuang was grinning ferociously, not even reacting. A dagger pierced his forehead.

Wang Xuan, who was originally several meters away, appeared suddenly nearby and plunged the blade of a dagger entirely into Nie Kuang's face.

Nie Kuang, with a smile on his face, fell to the ground, lifeless.

"You're the first one to speak to me like this, you owe me a blade." Wang Xuan drew his dagger.

The anxious look on Wang Chan's beautiful face vanished, replaced by a mixture of shock and astonishment as she watched the boy's thin figure disappear.

How is that possible

Nie Kuang was a cultivator at the seventh level of the Xuan Yuan Realm, yet he was killed instantly!

How did he do it

The change happened too quickly, Wang Chan didn't even have time to see clearly.

"Mu Qingyue's incompetent, cowardly husband who was weak on the outside, actually killed a martial arts master..."

Wang Chan had a small, red mouth that was shaped into a cute 'O'.

Am I dreaming, or is this a fantasy born out of despair Or perhaps I'm simply scared out of my wits

How could he possibly think of Wang Xuan He was a martial arts廢柴, after all. Many times, he'd even thought about standing up for Mu Qingyue and beating her husband!

The atmosphere in the valley was thick with a tense silence, a suffocating stillness.

Nie Wude's eyes narrowed. The other members of the Nie clan, men and women alike, wore expressions of disbelief.

They couldn't see clearly, they didn't catch the boy's movements at all. In their vision, the boy appeared before Nie Kuang in a flash and killed him instantly!

"The seventh level of the Profound Element Realm, it turns out he not only cultivates martial arts but also hides his cultivation." Nie Wude spoke coldly.

At the instant the boy swung his dagger and killed Nie Kuang, he sensed the boy's aura fluctuation, but unfortunately, the boy attacked too quickly, leaving him no time to warn him.

And a few days ago, he also received news that this Wang family's young clan leader could cultivate martial arts and would have a life-or-death duel with the Wang family's genius, Wang Ya.

At that time, there was a rumor that he had only reached the ninth level of the Soul Condensation Realm!

"Evidently, this young man has already cultivated martial arts, he just kept his cultivation hidden." Nie Wu-de's entire body was filled with an overwhelming killing intent.

"A master at the seventh level of the Xuan Yuan Realm! He's hiding so well!"

Whether it was the men and women of the Nie family or Wang Chan, hearing Nie Wude's words, they all looked at the young man in black with shock on their faces.

"Oh, you actually killed my brother! Now die!"

Nie Chen, regaining his senses, had bloodshot eyes and roared in anger. He channeled all his power into his martial arts and unleashed a frenzied sword strike.

The torrential sword technique!

Countless sword shadows were slashed out by Nie Chen, a full thirty in number. They carried immense killing intent, blocking all of Wang Xuan's escape routes and intending to slice him into mincemeat.unimaginable and unheard of."The name 'Ten Shadow Sword' doesn't suit it anymore, let's call it the 'Fire Shadow Sword' instead."Wang Xuan gave Jian Wu Hun a new name.It feels pretty badass.She smiled...
