“Xue Hanzi!”
Upon hearing this name, the younger generation didn’t react strongly, but all the elders seemed to have figured out who this person was.
More than a decade ago, a man known as Xue Hanzi single-handedly slaughtered an entire guardian temple, instantly gaining notoriety. But this act also earned him the enmity of all the guardian temples, making him the enemy of every temple across the entire Huaxia region.
Afterward, the guardian temples dispatched several supreme experts to hunt Xue Hanzi down. However, none of them ever returned.
It was known that even the weakest among those hunters were experts at the peak of the Xiantian realm, and there were even masters beyond Xiantian—experts at the Tong Ling realm. Experts of such strength could easily annihilate several Xiantian experts with just a wave of their hands, yet they still perished at Xue Hanzi’s hands.
After that news reached the temples, many people came to despise Xue Hanzi deeply. However, no guardian temple dared to act against him again. After all, experts at the Tong Ling realm were extremely rare, even for the temples—no more than five existed.
But today, this man had actually appeared at the Ancient Martial Arts Conference. Instantly, all the representatives of the guardian temples became alert. This place gathered numerous experts. Heaven had opened a path, yet he refused to take it; hell had no door, yet he had forced his way in…
“Old men, as long as none of you die, how could I possibly die?”
Facing such a massive crowd, Xue Hanzi showed no fear at all. As for the leader of the Eastern Holy Temple, he harbored no goodwill either. He had not forgotten the relentless pursuit he had suffered more than a decade ago.
“He who does much evil will eventually destroy himself. Now that you’re still alive, do you really think you can leave here today?”
With a cold sneer on his lips, the leader of the Eastern Holy Temple abruptly rose from his seat. Using the force of his leap, he soared into the air, instantly reaching the same level as Xue Hanzi, and stared at him directly.
“Since I dared to show myself, I won’t fear an old man like you…”
“What if I join in too?”
Before Xue Hanzi could finish speaking, the voice of Old Master Huangpu had already echoed out. His slightly aged face bore a trace of fury. Clearly, there was a deep grudge between Xue Hanzi and the hidden Huangpu Clan.
“I didn’t expect you to have reached this level as well. It seems the hidden Huangpu Clan has no ambitions. Otherwise, the guardian temples would certainly have a place reserved for your hidden clan!”
Xue Hanzi’s eyes flickered slightly, though he quickly concealed it. He had anticipated there would be many experts gathered at the Ancient Martial Arts Conference. However, for the sake of the precious spiritual vessel he had painstakingly cultivated, he had no choice but to take this risk.
“I don’t care much for fame or power, but I really want your head, Xue Hanzi!”
Old Master Huangpu smiled, completely unbothered by the astonished glances from everyone present, especially the experts from the guardian temples, who were now speculating about Xue Hanzi’s words. Was the hidden Huangpu Clan really that powerful?
It was commonly known that hidden clans usually lagged somewhat behind the guardian temples in terms of strength. But sensing Old Master Huangpu’s aura, many began to believe that the Huangpu Clan, among the hidden clans, was already a match for some of the guardian temples.
“I don’t have the time or mood to play games with you lot. When my power reaches new heights, it will be the day each of you meets your end. Old bastard from the Huangpu family, I suggest you stop thinking about killing me and instead consider the current situation your hidden clan is in!”
Although Xue Hanzi had ample reason to be arrogant, he dared not linger any longer. The people who had stepped forward were already enough to ensure he would never leave this place alive. Let alone the many others who were eyeing him hungrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, a crimson mist began to rise from his body. In a flash, a blood-colored shadow vanished from everyone’s sight, moving at an astonishing speed. Upon hearing these words, Old Master Huangpu’s expression immediately darkened…
