Lin Xuan stood in the void, suddenly appearing high in the sky. His shout shook the void like thunder, and then spread throughout the entire Hangu Pass.

It immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Yun Canggu's face instantly turned ashen. He trembled as he stared at Lin Xuan, who was standing on lightning in the air. A chilling killing intent surged forth, and he glared at Lin Xuan with bloodshot eyes, angrily shouting, "Lin Xuan, how dare you disregard the War God Palace..."

“I’m certainly very bold, but you old codger aren’t much bolder either. You actually dared to come and steal the peaches. You even dared to lay your hands on Hangu Pass. Do you really think I, Lin Xuan, am made of clay?”

Lin Xuan snorted coldly, his killing intent sharp as a knife, and stared directly at Yun Cang.

At this moment, he was truly enraged. What was this Yun Cang? It was one thing to seize Hangu Pass, but to be so arrogant and domineering, treating him like a pushover, did he really think that Lin Xuan had no temper?

Under the cold gaze, Yun Cang's eyes flashed, and for a moment he didn't dare to meet Lin Xuan's eyes, because he felt ashamed.

However, this shame vanished in an instant. His eyes turned cold, and he looked at Lin Xuan with a mocking expression: "Kid, don't be so unconvinced. Taking over Hangu Pass is the order from above, the will of the entire War God Palace. What, you really dare to disobey the will of the War God Palace?"

Now that I have control of Hangu Pass, if I were you, I would obediently leave.

Because you have no other choice…

As he spoke, a hint of smugness appeared in Yun Cang's eyes.

In his view, no matter how unwilling Lin Xuan was, it would all be in vain in the end, because Lin Xuan had no power or influence and was just a peasant who had gotten to where he was today because of some opportunities, but lacked the foundation and was easy for them to manipulate.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that it was precisely because of this kind of thinking that he would eventually lose his life.

Lin Xuan stood in mid-air, listening to Yun Cang's words, and felt a chill run through his body.

This is the current state of affairs among the upper echelons of the Great Xia Dynasty. They judge people by their status and background, look down on those who come from humble beginnings, and consider ability and strength to be insignificant.

The more than one billion people of the Great Xia Dynasty live under the management of such a group of garbage. How tragic is this?

Of course, it cannot be denied that such people are not all of them.

But this proportion will definitely not be small.

The killing intent in his eyes had reached its peak, his pupils gradually shrinking to a point, and then he said coldly, "You're wrong, I have a second path to choose from."

That means I'll kill you...

boom!

The moment he uttered the word "you," Lin Xuan moved. With a wave of his hand, he unleashed boundless thunderous power, which, along with the force of his fist, roared down like a thunder dragon, tearing through the sky and rushing straight towards Yun Cang.

"You bastard, Lin Xuan, you're asking for death."

Yun Cang was stunned, incredulous. He hadn't expected Lin Xuan to be so arrogant and daring to actually attack him. After the initial shock came anger and a surge of killing intent. With a roar, he unleashed a punch of his own.

A violent fist force swept across, distorting the space around him and revealing terrifying frost. The area within a hundred feet of him transformed into a world of profound ice. A thunder dragon roared in the air, and upon entering this world of profound ice, its brilliant lightning was frozen solid in mid-air.

"Hahaha... Lin Xuan, you dare to be arrogant in front of me with such little strength? Today I will teach you a lesson and let you know that you are not someone to mess with, even if you are an old general."

Yun Cang laughed wildly without stopping.

With a wave of his hand, the Xuanbing World suddenly expanded and swept towards Lin Xuan.

Wherever it passed, a chilling cold descended, and the void was sealed off.

"Ignorant and foolish!"

Lin Xuan snorted coldly, raised his hand and waved it. The dark clouds in the sky rolled and thunder roared. In an instant, Lin Xuan forcibly fused them into one, transforming them into a hundred-foot star that fell from the sky.

It is a superior divine power: Star Condensation.

Stars fell, the sky shattered, and then crashed violently onto Yun Cang's icy world.

Boom... Bang...

In a single exchange, the Xuanbing shattered instantly, and a terrifying energy shockwave spread in all directions, tearing the sky apart.

The hundred-foot-tall star that descended from the sky was only slightly illusory before continuing its descent with enough force to destroy the heavens and the earth, crashing down upon Yun Cang. That boundless pressure swept across, forcibly distorting the surrounding space, causing ripples to spread throughout the world, as if it were trying to flatten the space itself.

An immense pressure descended, causing Yun Cang to tremble, as a sense of death swept over his entire body.

"Impossible... How could you be so strong?"

At this moment, Yun Cang's expression finally changed. He roared furiously, his face contorted with rage, his eyes wide open as if they were about to pop out. His aura surged, and his true essence boiled, forming layers of protective shields above his head, attempting to block the falling stars.

Bang!

In a single exchange, stars crashed down, rendering Yun Cang's layers of protective energy shields useless, shattering instantly.

"No……"

As the oppressive force descended, Yun Cang roared in despair. He wanted to escape, but he couldn't move at all because the surrounding space and time were imprisoned, like a quagmire. Even if he tried his best to move, he couldn't avoid the falling stars.

Boom... Bang...

As the stars pressed down, Yun Cang's physical body exploded.

With a flash of light, a figure instantly flew towards the sky—it was Yun Cang's primordial spirit. For a Celestial Realm expert, the destruction of their physical body was nothing; as long as the primordial spirit existed, the physical body could be rebuilt, though not as powerful as before, at least they wouldn't perish.

"Lin Xuan, you just wait, this debt won't be settled so easily."

Yun Cang's primordial spirit flew away, roaring with a ferocious expression.

Anger, resentment, and violence mingled within him, making him wish he could devour Lin Xuan alive. Since becoming an ancient general, he had never suffered such a loss, so he simply couldn't swallow this humiliation.

"Hmph, you want to settle scores with me? Well, let's settle them today!"

Lin Xuan snorted coldly, took a step forward, and disappeared mysteriously. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Yun Cang's primordial spirit. Then, he raised his hand, and a mysterious light shone.

The surrounding space rippled like water, and a terrifying binding force directly fixed Yun Cang's primordial spirit in mid-air.

It is a superior divine power: Sealing.

Imprisoned by the void, the aura of death swept over his entire body, and at this moment, Yun Cang finally panicked completely.

"No... Lin Xuan, what do you want to do? You can't kill me."

Yun Cang roared with a ferocious expression: "I am an ancient general of the Great Xia Dynasty and a member of the War God Palace. Killing me will bring you a lot of trouble."

If you let me leave, I promise I will never set foot in Hangu Pass again.

"Too late, why didn't you do this sooner?"

Lin Xuan sneered, unconvinced, and raised his hand to suppress Yun Cang's primordial spirit. Since he had already made his move, there was no reason for him to give up halfway.

Moreover, Lin Xuan had already sentenced Yun Cang to death after learning that Yun Cang had forcibly occupied Hangu Pass.

He must die today.
