Bang!

Bo Wu didn't hesitate and swiftly stepped back. Even though Foundation Establishment Cultivators could control their own strength to a certain degree, it would be better to be safe than sorry. He didn't want to get unnecessary wounds.

The man was feeling immense pressure and turned his head around. He could see a man in white robe walking in his direction. The man's aura could easily penetrate one's defense even though they could notice that the man was only at Foundation Establishment.

Fear crept from within the people who watched.

Many chose to flee even further from this place. They didn't want to get involved in the fight between powerful cultivators. For ordinary Body Training Stage Cultivators, getting involved would mean certain death since these people wouldn't hesitate but to kill them if they dared to meddle in.

"He makes his move," Lin Xiao said with grim expression.

"Yes…"

Based on the aura around, Lin Xiao could guess that the man must be Foundation Establishment Cultivators, but he was uncertain about the man's specific ranks. Hopefully, it was not Golden Core Stage.

Eh wait, there shouldn't be any Golden Core Stage cultivators in this place, right?

Golden Core Stage Cultivators were already one of the most powerful existences in Sun Kingdom. If anything, most elders and powerful figures were already at Golden Core Stage. Besides, to be able to reach that stage didn't only mean that they have enough Qi and great strength, but also understanding of martial arts.

After all, cultivation was not only about getting stronger but also getting understanding.

And what they understood could be different from one person to another. Not a single one of them would have the exact same path but many of them might be similar because of the theme.

Bang!

"Do you think that you can make a move in Ri Village as you wish?" The man in white robe asked in cold tone. His sharp tone and also the pressure he exerted prevented anyone from running away.

Cold sweat poured on the man's back. He looked at the man in white robe while clenching his saber tighter. Thanks to the fight with Bo Wu, he had been fixated to fight and only fight, so his strength had diminished.

If he had to fight against powerful cultivator at the same stage, which was Foundation Establishment, he would surely lose. Not only lose, there was high chance that he might even lose his life.

"Don't you dare to get involved in our business!" the man roared angrily. "I have to teach this man a lesson for killing my friend."

"Oh?" The man in white robe scoffed. His expression was filled with ridicule. "This village is my turf. If you don't want to die, you better scram!"

"You bastard! I'll not leave unless I have exacted my vengeance."

The man in white robe looked at the man who was holding the saber as if he was looking at an idiot. He waved his hand in lazy manner as if he was dismissing the servants. His action only made one looked at him in wonder because not a single one of them knew what his background was.

He looked like he was someone from high above.

However, Lin Xiao felt like rolling his eyes. The man's action only made him remember of a certain annoying man in his village. That man would act and flaunt his power as if he was the most powerful person in the entire world. But in reality, he was just a frog in a well and there were many others who were more powerful.

This person had good background? Lin Xiao was not totally sure, nor did he care.

"Leave!"

Bang!

Bo Wu had been listening enough for him to recover some of his strength. Without even waiting for any instruction, he leapt forward and swung his sword towards the large man in front of him. His action looked as if he wanted to kill the other party when the latter was still facing the man in white.

However, the man was ready and escaped with footwork technique. He moved to the side as his eyes gleamed dangerous. His large saber was swung and sound of flesh tearing could be heard.

Slash!

"AAAaaaaaa!"

Bo Wu's expression changed when he saw his last servant was killed. The man in white was even more enraged as he swung his arm. Powerful Qi was directed straight towards the man, who now couldn't move properly.

He looked at the incoming Bo Wu and smiled sinisterly.

"Since you have been so intent to fight me, I'll deliver your wish."

Almost instantly, ripples of Qi filled the air. Bo Wu, who was about to get closer felt the danger and stopped his steps midway. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at the man who was already at the death's door.

"Run!"

The man in white also sensed it and immediately turned around. He knew what the man was doing, which was to destroy his own cultivation and exploded the surroundings. This move was known to be the most ruthless move because it would destroy their own soul.

But at this time, the man didn't seem to care in the slightest bit. There was only a sneer on his face as he used his Qi and exploded his own body.

Bang!

Powerful pressure and ripples of Qi created a large explosion with the man at the center. The more powerful a cultivators were, the larger the explosion they could make when they destroyed their own cultivation.

Since the man was already at Foundation Establishment, it meant that his strength was so powerful to destroy the surrounding houses.

Rocks, woods, and dirt soon filled the street.
