"Heh, some people really don't fear death, meddling where they don't belong!"
The powerhouses from Giant Whale City, seeing only two young hotheads and a demon toad at the late stage of Core Condensation, were completely unfazed.
"Kneel, kowtow, and then scram! Giant Whale City is conducting business here, no idlers allowed."
The leader of Giant Whale City, a Golden Core realm cultivator, said disdainfully.
If he hadn't wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble and wasn't unsure of the background of these two youths, his temper would have made him crush them with a single palm.
However, to his surprise, even after he had said this, the grey-haired youth ignored him completely and instead walked step by step through the void towards them.
"Truly seeking death!"
He snorted coldly, casually reaching out. Powerful law energy transformed into a giant hand, reaching out to grab the grey-haired youth.
Just as everyone thought the ignorant grey-haired youth would be easily crushed.
An unbelievable scene unfolded before their eyes.
The grey-haired youth spread his five fingers, waved his hand casually, and a dazzling burst of spiritual energy erupted. It shattered the Giant Whale City leader's law-hand and then slapped him forcefully across the face.
With a crisp "crack."
The Golden Core realm leader from Giant Whale City was sent flying with a single slap, crashing into the surging sea.
When he burst out from underwater, his mouth was full of blood, his eyes wide, and his mind completely stunned!
Not just him, but stunned.
The other powerhouses from Giant Whale City were also dumbfounded.
On the other hand, the powerhouses from Xuan Yue Island were both shocked and delighted, appearing as if they had been granted a reprieve from certain death.
Xuan Na's beautiful eyes showed unprecedented brilliance, staring at the grey-haired youth with disbelief.
After all, that was a Martial Lord of the Golden Core realm!
In the entire Eastern Lin Domain, such a person was considered top-tier.
When had they become so vulnerable!
"Damn it, kid, you dare hit our commander, you're dead!"
The powerhouses from Giant Whale City, snapping out of their shock, began to curse furiously.
However, to their surprise, the Golden Core realm commander from Giant Whale City, instead of being enraged by the slap, showed a look of terror in his eyes. Moments later, he transformed into a streak of light and fled into the distance without looking back.
"This..."
All the powerhouses from Giant Whale City were utterly bewildered.
What was going on?
Their commander was in the Golden Core realm, why was he so terrified?
As they stood there, at a loss, the Golden Core realm commander from Giant Whale City hadn't forgotten his subordinates. He shouted, "This person is terrifying, flee quickly, you fools!"
"Ah... oh!"
These powerhouses from Giant Whale City finally came to their senses. Their gazes towards the grey-haired youth were filled with endless fear. Their commander had been scared into such a state, which could only mean one thing: this young man's power far exceeded their imagination.
Realizing this, they dared not linger. Each one wished their parents had given them an extra leg, and they fled in a panicked rush, following their commander.
"Wow, Brother Ling is still so mighty and imposing. One slap scared the guts out of these guys. They were so arrogant just now, and in an instant, they fled at the sight of us. Tsk tsk."
Wei Bin exclaimed in wonder.
Toad, however, looked somewhat reluctantly at the retreating figures of the Giant Whale City powerhouses. In its eyes, they were all top-grade supplements.
Especially the Golden Core realm commander from Giant Whale City.
If it ate his Golden Core, along with the Nascent Cores of so many top Core Condensation realm cultivators, it should be enough for it to break through to the Golden Core realm, right?
Alas.
What a shame.
Why did these people have brains?
If only they were a bit more foolish, and had dared to jump around a bit more in front of Ling Zun, Ling Zun would have dealt with them all out of annoyance, and then it would have been able to feast on Nascent Cores and Golden Cores to its heart's content.
Damn it!
A huge loss.
Toad was somewhat annoyed.
A fierce glint flashed in its eyes as it fixed its gaze on the sea demons.
"Bin, help me! Let's take down these sea demons together, and I'll give you half the spoils."
"Sure, I've also been feeling like I'm approaching a cultivation bottleneck lately. It's a good time to stretch my muscles!"
Wei Bin's eyes blazed with fighting spirit, and he let out a strange cry. The man and the toad transformed into streaks of light, diving down towards the demonic beasts that had been controlled by the Giant Whale City powerhouses but hadn't been taken away in time.
Ling Fan, however, paid no mind to these two battle-loving fellows.
He slowly descended through the void, landing on the ship.
At this moment, the powerhouses from Xuan Yue Island finally came to their senses. One by one, they looked at Ling Fan as if he were a monster.
This person before them had actually scared away a Golden Core realm cultivator!
This was too monstrous.
After all, this young man looked less than twenty years old, and who would have thought his strength was so unfathomable.
"Thank you for your help, young master. Xuan Na is deeply grateful."
Xuan Na, wearing a fishtail skirt and possessing a graceful and enchanting figure, bowed gracefully to Ling Fan.
"You are from Xuan Yue Island, aren't you?"
Ling Fan asked.
"To be honest, benefactor, yes. This humble woman is the daughter of the Island Master of Xuan Yue Island, Xuan Na, and these are my islanders from Xuan Yue Island."
"Mm."
Ling Fan nodded.
If they hadn't been from Xuan Yue Island, he wouldn't have intervened just now.
"May I ask the benefactor's name?"
Xuan Na asked.
Her voice was clear and sweet, like heavenly music. She was an almost flawless woman.
However, Ling Fan had no intention of appreciating her beauty. He remained very indifferent to Xuan Na's enthusiasm and replied, "Ling Fan."
Xuan Na was slightly disappointed by Ling Fan's coldness.
Beauty always loved heroes, let alone such an astonishing and peerless prodigy. This immediately ignited her admiration.
However, she was not discouraged and continued, "So it's Young Master Ling. Is Young Master Ling heading to our Xuan Yue Island?"
"Yes."
Ling Fan nodded.
"Coincidentally, if Young Master Ling doesn't mind, please travel with Xuan Na. Young Master Ling saved us, and I must have my father properly thank Young Master Ling."
Ling Fan's destination was the Sun Moon Spirit Pond of Xuan Yue Island. Since Xuan Na had personally invited him, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
Seeing Ling Fan nod, Xuan Na's face bloomed with a captivating smile, stunning all the crew members. Only Ling Fan remained calm, standing on the ship and gazing at the beautiful scenery of the Xuan Yue Sea.
Not long after.
Toad and Wei Bin, those two fellows, finally flew out from under the water. They were dripping wet but looked very excited. Toad's large webbed feet clutched several demonic cores filled with potent demonic energy, while Wei Bin had collected a pile of very rare demonic beast materials.
Both the man and the toad were very satisfied with their haul.
The people from Xuan Yue Island were once again slightly surprised.
Not only was Ling Fan powerful.
The young master traveling with Ling Fan and the toad were also very strong. With just the two of them, they had managed to kill so many fierce and savage sea demons.
