Chapter 471: Another Foolish Young Master, Xuanming Sect Stirs Up Trouble!
The white robed youth wore a warm and gentle smile, holding a purple iron fan in his hand, giving him a rather refined and prestigious aura.
He was precisely the type of person mentioned earlier the kind who snatches up treasures spotted by others, using status and wealth to strong arm his way into deals.
Behind him, three elderly figures followed closely.
Wu Tian's gaze swept past the two men standing behind the youth both emitted formidable auras, clearly powerful Eight Star Douzong experts.
And these were merely his bodyguards.
Back then, even Feng Qing'er only had Douzong level protectors, yet this young master had two Eight Star Douzongs.
However, the truly dangerous presence was the third elder a frail looking man standing ahead of the two.
His posture lacked any sense of urgency, hands tucked within his sleeves, appearing no different from an ordinary old man.
But assuming he was weak would be a grave mistake.
As someone who had encountered many Douzun experts, Wu Tian was well aware that every Douzun carried an aura of extraordinary presence.
Take Lei Zunzhe, the former Wind and Thunder Pavilion Master he had a notoriously explosive temper.
Of course, after meeting Wu Tian, that ferocity turned into submission.
Then there was Huang Quan Zunzhe, whose sharp tongue and sarcastic insults often irritated his peers until Jian Zunzhe finally had enough and put him in his place.
And let's not forget Jian Zunzhe, an unyielding swordsman who ultimately died at Wu Tian's hands due to his stubbornness.
As for Feng Zunzhe… well, that mess with Yao Chen could fill an entire novel on its own.
Each Douzun had their own unique quirks.
Now, looking at this old man, Wu Tian could tell
This wasn't some ordinary, frail elder waiting for a meal box.
His hidden aura revealed that he was, without a doubt, a genuine Douzun expert.
A Douzun… serving as a bodyguard?
Now that was true prestige.
Once upon a time, Douhuang experts were considered untouchable.
Now?
They weren't even qualified to be guards.
As soon as the white robed youth made his entrance, the surrounding crowd immediately fell silent, their expressions a mix of shock and wariness.
They all recognized this arrogant young master a well known bully in these parts.
No one dared offend him, for behind him stood three terrifying elders.
Even when buying items, others had to be cautious, avoiding anything he showed interest in.
This unquestionable dominance spoke volumes about his powerful background.
"Hehe, kid, I'll pay you double for that bronze fragment. How about you let me have it?"
The white robed youth smiled at Wu Tian, eyes fixed on the ancient bronze piece.
Wu Tian, however, simply chuckled and responded,
"You're not worthy."
The moment those words left his mouth
The entire room went dead silent.
The surrounding spectators stared in disbelief, their hearts sinking.
He's done for.
This kid was as good as crippled.
Sure enough
The youth's right hand flashed forward, releasing a purple energy wave from his iron fan, aiming directly at Wu Tian's arm.
At the same time, his left hand shot toward the bronze fragment, attempting to snatch it away!
Wu Tian sighed dramatically, shaking his head.
"Sigh~ Why is it that people always bring trouble upon themselves?"
"In the past, at least I had my wives by my side when this happened…"
Before the youth's left hand could even reach the fragment
It vanished.
Gone.
His scream of agony echoed through the hall half a second later
Because one of his own guards had severed his arm before Wu Tian even had to lift a finger!
The old man, who had previously stood lazily, now stared at Wu Tian with pure shock.
"You… you're a Douzun?!"
His formerly relaxed demeanor was now replaced by deep caution and fear.
"Sir, we are from the Xuanming Sect."
"This young master is Chen Xian, our Young Sect Master."
"May I ask for your honorable name and affiliation?"
Standing protectively in front of Chen Xian, the old man's tone was cautious, even respectful.
He had failed to react in time and if he hadn't cut off Chen Xian's hand himself, the youth would have lost his life instead.
This was enough to prove one thing
Wu Tian was far beyond his level.
"Xuanming Sect?"
Wu Tian let out a light chuckle, shaking his head.
"Ahh… The third rate subsidiary of the great Tianming Sect."
Hearing this, the elder's face darkened.
Tianming Sect was one of the most powerful forces on the continent.
Xuanming Sect, on the other hand?
They were just a subsidiary, existing in the shadow of their superior.
Their strength was comparable to Ice River Valley but only barely.
Even Ice River Valley looked down on them.
Still, with Tianming Sect backing them, they managed to throw their weight around, forming an alliance with Ice River Valley to expand their influence.
However…
The moment they ran into Wu Tian, all of that meant nothing.
This overconfident Young Sect Master had just kicked an unmovable steel wall.
"Elder Xuan, what are you waiting for?! Kill him!"
Chen Xian screamed in fury, clutching his severed arm stump as blood dripped down his robe.
Elder Xuan's expression was grim.
Kill him?
He wasn't even sure if they could walk out of here alive, and this idiot was asking him to attack?!
He forcibly calmed himself, lowering his stance.
"Sir, my Young Sect Master has been… mentally unstable recently."
"I sincerely apologize for his actions."
"We… will no longer pursue the bronze fragment. We will take our leave now."
Hearing this, Elder Yan, the Seventh Tier Advanced Alchemist, shook his head and sighed.
"Elder Xuan… You really think you can just walk away?"
Elder Xuan's face twisted in confusion.
"Elder Yan, what do you mean?"
"Does Pill Tower wish to interfere in this matter?"
"Do not forget Tianming Sect is not to be trifled with."
Elder Yan merely smirked, casually lifting the jade bottle Wu Tian had given him.
He gently poured out its contents…
A single pill, glowing with an ethereal, crimson flame, floated in his palm.
The instant Elder Xuan and his two guards saw it
Their faces turned pale as death.
"You… You're the Lord of the Cai Lin Pavilion?"
"The mysterious Master of the Cai Lin Pavilion?!"
Gasps of shock erupted throughout the room.
"What?! He's the one who unified the Four Way Pavilion?!"
Chen Xian's remaining hand trembled violently.
He had just provoked one of the most terrifying figures on the continent.
Wu Tian's smirk deepened.
He slowly turned toward the terrified Young Sect Master.
"You wanted my bronze fragment?"
"Now tell me… what are you willing to offer in exchange?"
