“Stop right there, newbie! Don’t you know the rules?”
As they approached the ancient city, the scent of antiquity gradually filled Xiao Yufan and his companions’ nostrils. However, an untimely voice suddenly came from their side.
“Rules? I haven’t heard of any rules in a place like this…”
Seeing several people approaching, Ye Kong’s mouth curved into an amused smile. It seemed this guy couldn’t resist showing off, but these watchdogs’ strength wasn’t even worth his attention.
Occupying territory and demanding tributes from passersby was no different from highway robbery. Xiao Yufan had no fondness for them whatsoever. He hoped these fools wouldn’t be too stupid.
“This ancient city has been claimed by our Di Sha Palace! If you want to enter, you must offer something satisfactory!”
“Who cares about your Disha…嘎, Disha Palace?”
Ye Kong didn’t hesitate to jump into the conversation, but his expression clearly froze for a moment when he heard the name Di Sha Palace.
The Di Sha Palace was the second most powerful temple among the Chinese Guardians’ Halls, its strength surpassing the Four Directions Hall by a level. They indeed had the capital to show off, explaining why everyone entering the city obeyed so meekly.
“Kid, now that you’ve heard of our Di Sha Palace, quickly offer some nice things to entertain us seniors!”
Seeing astonished expressions always gave these gatekeepers immense satisfaction. After all, they were disciples of the Di Sha Palace, convinced they were superior in every way.
“Sorry, we don’t have anything suitable to feed watchdogs. After all, dog food is really expensive these days!”
The looks of these people were utterly repulsive to Xiao Yufan. His opinion wouldn’t change even if they mentioned the Di Sha Palace.
“What did you say? Hey, dare you repeat that…”
Xiao Yufan’s words struck them like stepping on a fox’s tail, instantly turning them ferocious. The only expert among them who had entered the Semi-Heavenly Ascension realm suddenly unleashed his aura.
Passersby immediately stepped back to avoid being caught in the crossfire. The presence of a Semi-Heavenly Ascension expert among these gatekeepers revealed the Di Sha Palace’s overall strength was even more terrifying than they’d imagined.
“I don’t repeat myself. If I spoke just because you asked, wouldn’t I lose all face!”
Xiao Yufan looked at the speaker with the gaze reserved for fools, his mouth lifting into a proud arc. Whether it was one Semi-Heavenly Ascension expert or ten more, they couldn’t stop him.
“Daring to show off to me, watch me kill you!”
The Di Sha Palace people weren’t easy targets. They had been stationed here for days, with many people obediently complying. Suddenly encountering rebels like this, how could they not be furious?
“Leave…” Somehow, so many arrogant people appeared. Did they really think a Semi-Heavenly Ascension expert was that powerful?
A deep, resonant shout accompanied by a mighty aura made many people break into cold sweats. Especially the Di Sha Palace’s Semi-Heavenly Ascension expert, whose face was now filled with shock!
“Are you a Heaven Ascension expert?”
Don’t mistake the Di Sha Palace people as short-sighted. Heaven Ascension experts weren’t common at all, even within the Guardian Halls they were top-tier presences. They never expected their luck to be this bad today.
“As you guessed. Now, may we enter?”
Xiao Yufan didn’t want to stoop to their level with these bullies. He didn’t fully understand the Di Sha Palace’s depth and didn’t want to offend such a superpower carelessly. After all, he already had too many enemies.
“Of course! Any Heaven Ascension expert can freely enter and exit the ancient city without needing to do anything!”
The Semi-Heavenly Ascension expert wore a bitter expression. Why hadn’t he checked his lucky date before leaving home today? He had encountered such a star of misfortune. Fortunately, he hadn’t attacked earlier, or else he would have suffered a huge embarrassment.
“That simple? Then can I also enter and exit freely…”
Ye Kong’s expression slowly returned to normal. It wasn’t hard to understand his momentary loss of composure, as the Di Sha Palace’s reputation wasn’t unfounded. Seeing the respectful manner of these Di Sha disciples, he felt secretly pleased.
The Heaven Ascension aura immediately radiated outward, making the still-dazed person exclaim in shock again!
Damn it, another Heaven Ascension expert! Who exactly were these people? Could they all be Heaven Ascension experts?
Thinking this, he shook his head hard. Come on, even the Di Sha Palace couldn’t produce so many young Heaven Ascension experts. How could these people possibly all be Heaven Ascension experts?
However, even if there were only two, they were still untouchable. Moreover, their superiors had instructed that they only needed to let any Heaven Ascension experts pass.
“Since that’s the case, then thank you, friends of the Di Sha Palace…”
Helplessly shaking his head, Xiao Yufan didn’t want to expose their true strength. However, with Ye Kong’s personality, their strength would eventually be revealed anyway. He might as well give the Di Sha Palace people a bit of intimidation.
Might makes right, an eternal truth in the hidden martial world!
If Xiao Yufan’s strength wasn’t at the Heaven Ascension level, these people would still be wearing those detestable expressions. But having witnessed their power, even the Di Sha Palace people dared not act too arrogantly, as their so-called shining halo was useless in this place.
“Hehe, please enter the ancient city, everyone!”
The Semi-Heavenly Ascension expert chuckled dryly, a bitter smile on his lips. Behind every “hehe” lay ten thousand horses galloping by. This saying was indeed true, at least right now he had an urge to kill someone.
When someone dares to show off in front of you while you’re powerless to do anything—that’s the most frustrating situation. They had been here for so long, how could they have ever endured such treatment?
Yet even if they felt unhappy, they dared not act too recklessly. First, a Heaven Ascension expert was definitely beyond their ability to oppose. Second, their superiors wouldn’t risk offending two Heaven Ascension experts over just a few people.
Xiao Yufan didn’t bother trying to figure out what they were thinking. His principle was simple: If others don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them. But if they do provoke me, I will definitely retaliate double. This was Xiao Yufan’s way of doing things.
Even the Di Sha Palace had no right to jump all over him. If Xiao Yufan was enraged, he wouldn’t care whether the Di Sha Palace was the second most exalted presence in the Guardian Temple…
