Ten Thousand Dragons Technique

Chapter 436: Lin Xuan: Why Wouldn’t I Dare!

A Three-star Grandmaster?

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan said with disdain, "I’ve lost count of the Three-star Grandmasters I’ve killed. Killing you would be a piece of cake."

As soon as he said this, the entire crowd was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter. The young masters were bent over, howling with mirth.

"My god, this kid sure can brag."

"This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone boast like this."

"You’ve slain a Three-star Grandmaster? Why don’t you just ascend to the heavens, then?"

"This kid can already fight across three cultivation realms, which is already heaven-defying."

"And now he thinks he can fight across six realms? Dream on."

"Even a genius from a Holy Land couldn’t do that!"

"Who does he think he is?"

"The son of a Great Emperor? A reincarnated Saint?"

...

"Young Master Lin, don’t act on impulse!" Wu Qiming urged frantically.

Lin Xuan was a supreme guest of their Ten Thousand Treasures Tower. If he got hurt here, Wu Qiming would be punished as well. While holding Lin Xuan back, he turned his head and said to Bai Qian Qian, "Tower Master Bai, you should try to persuade him too!"

Bai Qian Qian, however, shook her head. "Why should I? This Fang Fan is despicable. It would be good for Lin Xuan to teach him a lesson."

What? Wu Qiming was stunned. Lin Xuan teaching Fang Fan a lesson? What a joke! Young Master Lin is no match for him!

But Bai Qian Qian continued, "Tower Master Wu, don’t you worry. A Three-star Grandmaster is truly no match for Lin Xuan. He has already slain several of them."

Wu Qiming stood there in shock.

Are my ears playing tricks on me? Did Bai Qian Qian just say Lin Xuan can defeat a Three-star Grandmaster? Is that for real? Has she lost her mind? It’s one thing for Lin Xuan to boast, but how can you start spouting the same nonsense?

"Tower Master Bai, you can’t be serious! Please, help me talk some sense into him!"

"There’s no need. Lin Xuan will definitely win," Bai Qian Qian replied, full of confidence. She was well aware of Lin Xuan’s combat record.

Wu Qiming was on the verge of tears.

Across the hall, the young masters from the various families roared with laughter.

"Is this woman an idiot? She actually believes someone can fight across six cultivation realms!"

"How utterly foolish!"

In the end, Tower Master Wu failed to hold Lin Xuan back. He watched as Lin Xuan strode forward and came to a stop directly in front of Fang Fan.

The guards behind Fang Fan all stood up, gripping their swords with palpable killing intent.

Fang Fan, however, waved his hand to stop them. "You all stand down. Let this kid make his move. I want to see if he can even hurt me. Kid, I’ll just stand right here and let you take your best shot. If you can even break through my defense, I’ll take your surname."

Fang Fan was supremely confident. He believed that even if his opponent went all out, he couldn’t be harmed in the slightest.

Without another word, Lin Xuan threw a punch.

BOOM!

Fang Fan was sent flying backward, a scream of agony tearing from his throat as the sound of numerous bones breaking echoed through the hall.

What just happened?

The entire venue fell into a state of shock. Everyone was dumbfounded. The guards stared in astonishment. The young masters were stunned. Wu Qiming was the most astounded of all.

H-How is this possible? Lin Xuan actually injured Fang Fan! This is unbelievable! He really can fight across six cultivation realms! That’s just too heaven-defying. Is he a monster?

Only Bai Qian Qian wore a faint smile, for she knew the true extent of Lin Xuan’s strength.

For that Fang Fan to just stand there and take the hit, how foolish. But that scoundrel really did deserve a good lesson.

"Damn it!" Fang Fan felt as if his body was about to fall apart. He was both shocked and enraged. He never expected his opponent actually had the strength to injure him. It infuriated him! He had to retaliate! He had to kill this bastard. How dare he injure him! He would make him pay a terrible price!

But in the next moment, a figure flashed before his eyes. A hand grasped his throat, lifting him into the air. Lin Xuan had struck again.

Holding Fang Fan aloft with one hand, Lin Xuan said coldly, "Hand over the Ye Family’s belongings!"

"I won’t! What are you going to do about it?" Fang Fan choked out. "If you’ve got the guts, kill me! Do you dare?"

"What is there to not dare?" A chilling killing intent surfaced in Lin Xuan’s eyes.

The onlookers were terrified.

"Stop!" the young masters roared. "If you dare kill Young Master Fang, no one in heaven or on earth will be able to save you!"

Wu Qiming quickly interjected, "Young Master Lin, you mustn’t! If you kill Fang Fan, the Fang Family will never let you go!"

Even Bai Qian Qian was startled. If Lin Xuan was only teaching Fang Fan a lesson, she would be happy to watch. But if he intended to kill, things would get troublesome. After all, Lin Xuan was alone; he certainly couldn’t stand against a behemoth like the Fang Family. She advised, "Lin Xuan, just teach him a lesson. There’s no need to kill him."

The guards shouted angrily, "Let our young master go at once!"

Fang Fan himself didn’t believe anyone would dare to kill him. He taunted, "Kid, do you dare make a move? I’m begging you to do it! Come on!"

"He wouldn’t dare," the other young masters sneered.

"He definitely won’t kill Fang Fan."

"Who on Dragon Island would dare to offend the Fang Family?"

Seeing that Lin Xuan hadn’t acted, Wu Qiming breathed a sigh of relief. He prepared to persuade him further to let Fang Fan go.

This only made Fang Fan more arrogant. "Kid, either you have the guts to kill me now, or I’ll make you wish you had. And as for that Ye Qingwu, I’m going to toy with her until she begs for death."

Lin Xuan’s expression turned grim. "You’re courting death!"

He tightened his grip, unleashing the Cyan Dragon Hunting the Sky Hand.

CRACK!

With a sickening snap, he broke Fang Fan’s neck. His head rolled onto the ground, his eyes wide with disbelief. Even in death, he couldn’t believe he had been killed just like that.

The entire audience was petrified!

Wu Qiming’s face was a mask of utter astonishment.

Wu Yuan was so frightened he collapsed to his knees, trembling uncontrollably.

The smiles on the young masters’ faces froze, their eyes filled with terror.

The guards stood rooted to the spot, dumbstruck.

Bai Qian Qian was also dumbfounded.

The grand hall was deathly silent.

No one had expected Lin Xuan would actually dare to kill.

"You... you actually killed Young Master Fang?" someone exclaimed in horror.

The guards finally snapped back to reality, their eyes instantly turning bloodshot.

"Kill him! Avenge the young master!"

They drew their swords and charged at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan let out a cold snort and moved swiftly. Unleashing the Cyan Dragon Sky-Splitting Claw, he tore into the charging guards. The strongest among them was merely a Three-star Grandmaster, while the others were only One-star or Two-star Grandmasters. They were no match for him at all. In just a few moves, Lin Xuan shredded them all, sending a bloody mist into the air.

Everyone was once again stunned.

The young masters were scared out of their wits.

Wu Yuan nearly fainted from fear.

Only now do I realize how lucky I am to be alive. I actually dared to challenge Lin Xuan before... I was truly courting death! Thank heavens he didn’t kill me back then, or I’d be in hell by now. Thinking this, he knelt on the ground and began kowtowing to Lin Xuan nonstop.

"You really killed Young Master Fang?" Wu Qiming was dumbfounded. "Do you have any idea what you’ve done?"

Wu Qiming was on the verge of a breakdown. The Fang Family’s young master died in the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower. I can’t escape responsibility for this! The Fang Family will never spare me!

Lin Xuan, however, said calmly, "So I killed him. What’s the big deal? I don’t even take the mere Fang Family seriously. If they dare seek revenge, I’ll just wipe them out."

I couldn’t care less about the Fang Family. I have the Black Water Mysterious Snake with me, a true King. No matter how strong the Fang Family is, they are just a Grandmaster Clan. They pose no threat to me at all.

Lin Xuan ignored Wu Qiming. Instead, he bent down and picked up Fang Fan’s Storage Ring. From it, he retrieved an elixir: the Five-Colored Glazed Elixir. It was the very elixir Ye Qingwu had won at the auction.

Lin Xuan turned to Bai Qian Qian. "You handle things here. I’m going to find Senior Sister Ye."

With that, Lin Xuan departed.

Bai Qian Qian’s mind was a complete blank. She had never expected Lin Xuan to be so decisive. She stood there, stunned, for a long time before finally coming to her senses.

She stomped her foot in frustration. "That Lin Xuan is too reckless! How could he just kill him? No, I have to handle this immediately. I can’t let the Fang Family find out it was Lin Xuan. Otherwise, if the Fang Family retaliates, he won’t be able to withstand it."
