Between him and Xiao Chen, there was already deep enmity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To have Li Xun serve as Xiao Chen’s follower? That was nearly impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And moreover—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xun had already stepped into the Divine Palace Realm, standing as an equal to the older generation. How could he bow his head to serve a junior?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, what realm was Xiao Chen even at right now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From what they’d heard, he had only just reached the Divine Power Realm before. Even if he had a stroke of luck and broken through, he’d be at most in the Life and Death Realm. Compared to Li Xun, there was simply no comparison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strictly speaking, the two could already be considered fromdifferent generations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While everyone was discussing the matter of Li Xun and Xiao Chen, no one noticed that in the crowd stood a small figure, silent, his eyes gradually turning blood-red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the depths of his gaze burned fury, unwillingness, and even a trace of killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he restrained it well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything from those years—he still remembered vividly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glory that should have belonged to him was now completely stolen and placed upon another’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Fan stepped forward, his aura surging wildly. But before he could speak, Jiang Taixuan at his side placed a hand firmly on his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Xiao, do not be rash.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Taixuan was confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was it that ever since these Spirit Clan people appeared, Xiao Fan’s usual calm demeanor had unraveled, leaving him so unsettled?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be... because of Li Xun?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the problem was—right now, Li Xun alone was suppressing all of the Spirit Clan. From any perspective, Xiao Fan had no need for anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who should be anxious and fearful... were clearly the Spirit Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daoist Li Xun, what are your thoughts now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Cang spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Xiao Fan standing among the crowd. Xiao Fan’s every move earlier had already been fully noted by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, Xiao Fan was merely a discarded child of the Xiao Clan. Since the Xiao Clan no longer protected him, he had no backing. Though Xiao Fan was lucky enough to find Li Xun as a supporter, If Li Xun were to bow his head, Xiao Fan would instantly lose all protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps—if Li Xun truly wished to become Xiao Chen’s follower, he could even prove his loyalty by personally killing Xiao Fan, offering his head as tribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surely—if Xiao Fan knew he would die at Li Xun’s hands, he would die filled with unwilling rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that thought, a faint smile crept across Ling Cang’s lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the confident smile of one who already saw victory in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp crack split the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before that smile could even fade from his face, it froze completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A glowing divine hand had traced an arc through the void and landed viciously across Ling Cang’s cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Cang’s body reeled as though struck by a hammer, sent flying backward at high speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a deafening crash, he smashed into a nearby mountain ridge, setting off a storm of dust and rubble, drawing countless stares from the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your smile is disgusting—it makes me feel sick. That slap, consider it a lesson.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xun slowly withdrew his hand, speaking in an unhurried tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Xun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Cang roared, soaring into the sky. His hair was disheveled, his head bleeding profusely. Just now, Li Xun’s slap had nearly shattered his skull completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not for his deep cultivation and powerful body, he would have died on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had begun his cultivation over two thousand years ago, he had roamed the cultivation world unchallenged. Never—never once—had he endured such humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The dignified Profound Sun Holy Land, who has defeated countless geniuses and can even rival the older generation of experts—yet today you sneak attack our Spirit Clan elder? Isthatyour so-called honor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a young man of the Spirit Clan coldly barked out, his voice like thunder, shaking the heavens and drawing countless gazes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Profound Sun Holy Land, could it be that you don’t even dare fight face-to-face?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another Spirit Clan elder also sneered, his voice dripping with scorn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could finish his words, Li Xun stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His entire body erupted in radiant divine light, blood-essence surging and sweeping in all directions, instantly enveloping all the Spirit Clan present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with this overwhelming might, the Spirit Clan members’ expressions changed drastically. They staggered back uncontrollably, as though confronted with a demonic sovereign—terror rising in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li— Li Xun, what– what do you intend to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spirit Clan youth face went pale, his lips trembling as he stammered:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you dare lay a hand on us today, both the Spirit Clan and the Xiao Clan will never forgive you! And Xiao Chen—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice quavered:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He possesses two peerless talents. In the future, his achievements will definitely surpass yours! If you so much as harm a hair on our heads, he will surely strike personally and kill you himself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Chen?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xun’s gaze grew playful, his tone light as drifting clouds:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s nothing more than a petty man who stole someone else’s ImmortalMarrow. With such a heart, his path will never go far.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps... one day he will simply perish midway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean by that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Spirit Clan youth brows furrowed tightly, panic flickering deep in his eyes as he tried to deny it:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We don’t understand what you’re saying!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t understand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xun turned his head slightly, glancing back at Xiao Fan behind him. Then, with a calm voice that struck like a thunderclap, he declared:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I will make it clearer—Xiao Chen’sImmortal Bodynever belonged to him in the first place!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As these words fell—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as though a massive stone had been cast into a still lake, instantly stirring up raging waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone present visibly paled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This revelation was simply too earth-shaking. One of Xiao Chen’s two heaven-defying gifts—the Immortal Body—was not even his own!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this spread out, without question, it would be a devastating blow not only to Xiao Chen, but to the entire Xiao Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it would not change their actual strength, the reputation they had painstakingly built over countless years would crumble into dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A constitution that never belonged to him, forcibly grafted onto his body—tell me, how much true power do you think Xiao Chen can wield?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xun continued stepping forward. With each step, his aura grew more terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time his last footfall echoed, seven or eight Spirit Clan members could no longer even maintain flight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them crashed down to the ground below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing high above them, Li Xun looked down with cold indifference and said flatly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such a being... within ten years, he willcertainlyfall.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you want to see more of this story and don’t mind paying $5 each month to read the latest post, please go to myPatreon1.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current Chapter in Patreon:Chapter 282: Did Li Xun...
