Others, like Bai Xueqing, decided to join through their respective sects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of those 40, nearly 20 openly opposed Bai Zihan and were even ready to fight him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, only three were in the Nascent Soul Realm, while the rest were in the Golden Core Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they didn’t think that Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were necessary to beat down Bai Zihan, who was only at the Golden Core Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the rumors were true—that he had gained mastery over the Heaven-Grade Technique, Nine Shadows Flowing Light Sword—they believed that with their numbers, it was impossible for them to lose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others chose not to get involved, either because they didn’t think it was necessary or because they didn’t want to be caught up in the clan’s politics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, are you all ready? Begin!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Feng announced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as the words left his mouth, Bai Ming suddenly stepped forward, a smug smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone else, stand back. I don’t need your help to deal with this arrogant heir of ours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice dripped with confidence, and the others paused—some nodding, a few even stepping back willingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Bai Ming was one of the strongest among them. If he was going to humiliate Bai Zihan on his own, why should they bother?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, even though they agreed to fight Bai Zihan, they hadn’t planned to gang up on him unfairly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them wanted to teach him a lesson and believed they could do it alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a mocking smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not that he expected these prideful idiots to group together and attack him anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ming moved at insane speed, his figure blurring as he shot toward Bai Zihan, his fist crashing forward like a thunderclap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn’t personal, but you need to learn your place!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ming roared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan didn’t even blink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His figure shifted, a blur of movement that seemed almost lazy, and then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ming’s voice died in his throat, his eyes bulging as Bai Zihan’s fist buried itself in his gut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sheer force sent a shockwave rippling through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Guh—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ming’s face twisted in pain, and before he could even react, Bai Zihan’s knee slammed into his chin, lifting him off the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then a casual palm strike crashed into his chest, sending him flying backward like a ragdoll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ming hit the ground, skidding, tumbling, and finally coming to a stop, motionless, dust settling around his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others stared in stunned silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That... that was Bai Ming! One of the strongest in his generation when it comes to pure physical strength!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And he was... knocked out so easily?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How... How can Bai Zihan be that strong without using any Qi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is his body even more powerful than Bai Ming’s? That can’t be! He hardly even trains.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t believe how easily and quickly Bai Zihan had taken out Bai Ming, supposedly one of the strongest among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan and Bai Ming’s clash was mostly physical, with little to no Qi involved. Yet Bai Zihan came out on top?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed impossible to the Bai Clan members, who knew just how lazy Bai Zihan was—he wouldn’t even spare an hour for training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan waited for another challenger, but they were still too shocked to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mocking voice cut through their disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, don’t tell me you were just here to watch?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grin widened, dripping with contempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Twenty of you against me, and you’re too scared to even move? Well, let me help you with that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan’s figure blurred again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, he was in front of another disciple, his palm slamming into the poor guy’s face, sending him crashing back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guy was caught off guard and couldn’t even react—Bai Zihan’s speed was beyond what anyone expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A girl quickly tried to swing her sword at him, but Bai Zihan’s hand snatched her wrist like a vice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her reaction was quick, but Bai Zihan’s was faster—like her attack was in slow motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He yanked her forward, his knee slamming into her stomach, and she collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan roared, his voice brimming with battle lust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then the chaos began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining disciples finally snapped out of their shock, their pride and anger overwhelming their shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t let him mock us! Take him down!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian yelled angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still processing how the supposed joke of the Bai Clan had taken down one of the strongest among them, Bai Ming, and now two more in a split second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though those two weren’t as strong as him or Bai Ming, they were still elites chosen as participants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet the so-called waste took them out like it was nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The older generation didn’t take orders from Bai Jian despite his greater talent. He didn’t deserve that authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the younger generation was different—they were used to following Bai Jian, who acted like their leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven disciples immediately surrounded Bai Zihan, leaving no way for him to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bai Zihan, you have nowhere to escape.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian declared arrogantly, forgetting he had to rely on so many disciples just to contain the one he thought was a weakling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Escape? Who, me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan almost laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he wanted to escape, would he have deliberately approached them first?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no use explaining common sense to someone drunk on the illusion of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They surged forward, weapons drawn, Qi surging—with all their attacks converging on Bai Zihan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them lunged first, his sword slashing down with a fierce glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before his blade could touch Bai Zihan, a blur of motion flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His wrist twisted at an unnatural angle, the sword flying from his grip, and a brutal kick slammed into his chest, sending him flying back, his body crashing into another disciple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bastard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another one shouted, his palm glowing with a fiery red light as he aimed a flaming fist at Bai Zihan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bai Zihan sidestepped easily, grabbing the attacker’s outstretched arm and yanking him forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>THUD!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His knee met the disciple’s face, a sickening crunch echoing as the man’s nose shattered, blood spraying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From above, the elders watched in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Feng’s smile was long gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where was the untalented, problematic young master whose only talent was causing trouble?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was completely different from how they had known him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Tianheng’s gaze was sharp, but a slight smile played at his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(So... this is the strength my son has been hiding.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too strong!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the result was yet to be decided, Bai Zihan had already proven himself to all of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was no longer the person they used to know and could even take on multiple elites of the Bai Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just defeating the three geniuses earlier proved that he was a genius like his sister, Bai Xueqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, even more, despite being surrounded and outnumbered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he was happy to know that at least his son’s cultivation had reached the level of a genius, but this was completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivation level doesn’t always mean someone can also fight well, especially against so many at the same level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that his cultivation wasn’t the only thing at the level of a genius—his combat technique and physique were also on par with a top genius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(No wonder the Grand Elder looked so excited when talking about Zihan’er!)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing? Attack him from all sides!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian shouted angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was like fighting a storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan’s figure flickered, moving between them like a ghost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A punch shattered a jaw. An elbow cracked against a temple. A sweeping kick sent another one tumbling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In seconds, four more were on the ground, groaning in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian’s face twisted with rage. He wasn’t going to stand by and watch his so-called \"waste\" of a cousin humiliate them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, focus! Don’t attack blindly! Keep him occupied!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian shouted, and his voice seemed to snap the others out of their panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His own sword flashed as he charged in, his blade sweeping toward Bai Zihan’s shoulder with a precise, controlled strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan’s palm met the flat of Bai Jian’s sword, and a shockwave rippled out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Finally joining in, Bai Jian? I was wondering how long you planned to sit around and shout.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan taunted, his grin sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shut up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian spat, twisting his wrist, his sword flaring with blue Qi as he tried to push Bai Zihan back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bai Zihan didn’t budge. His hand gripped the blade, fingers tightening, Qi flaring around his palm like a shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan commented with genuine compliment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you’ll need a lot more than that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he shoved the sword aside, sending Bai Jian stumbling, and in the same motion, his leg lashed out in a sweeping kick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian barely managed to twist his body, avoiding the full impact, but the force still sent him skidding back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(How is his body so powerful?)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian thought hatefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he had also been beaten down and slapped by Bai Zihan, and he remembered how physically strong Bai Zihan was. Now, he was reminded of it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other disciples tried to take advantage of the moment, but it was like attacking a hurricane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another went down with a broken arm, a girl’s sword was ripped from her grip and used to smack her aside, and yet another disciple was sent flying with a brutal knee to the gut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Jian, however, refused to back down. His sword danced, strikes fast and precisely, and he managed to keep his footing, avoiding being overwhelmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, compared to the other disciples who were getting knocked out like flies, Bai Jian was in a league of his own—able to take the hits without losing consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear he was the strongest among the group now—he wasn’t just lashing out in panic like the others but trying to coordinate their efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even with his leadership, it was of no use as other disciples weren’t able to keep up with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last one, a girl with a spear, thrust it forward, her expression desperate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stay back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice trembled, but her attack was sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan caught the spear’s shaft with one hand, his grip like iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nice spear,\" he mocked, yanking it forward, and the girl stumbled toward him, wide-eyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand snapped forward, striking the back of her neck, and she crumpled to the ground, unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan spun the spear around and casually tossed it aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked around. Seven of them lay on the ground—some groaning, some unconscious and the only one who could fight was Bai Jian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, that was it? Pathetic!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan sneered, his voice carrying over the stunned silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this really the best of the Bai Clan?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1856,"2026-05-28T18:17:14.491Z","2026-06-01T04:28:34.960Z",1,"novelbin.me","371ef9a57cca045f3c73371ffd75f83dbf604bc6d0c3161f15ca9d47c4758655","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-118","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-116",580,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fturns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-cover.jpg"]
