"You...you, you're shameless!"
Upon hearing these words, Zhou Qingxue's face turned red with anger, and she pointed angrily at the other person.
Lin Xiuyuan frowned. How dare they say such things after he arrived? They were not taking him seriously at all.
This mere Qi Refining stage cultivator... thinks he can ignore Foundation Establishment cultivators just because of his background?
If he were outside, he would probably be dead by now.
Lin Xiuyuan sneered and said indifferently, "Where did this bug come from, chattering in front of me? If you don't want to live, just say so, and I can send you on your way."
These words were perfectly normal, but they surprised the young man, who seemed as if he was surprised that Lin Xiuyuan didn't recognize him.
However, at the moment, although he did not take Lin Xiuyuan, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, seriously, he was still hesitant to act rashly in the face of a life-threatening situation posed by a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
The young man could only say with a stern face, "Who are you? The Zhou family doesn't seem to have anyone like you. Judging from that little girl's address, you're a member of the Zhou family from outside? But that's none of your business, so you'd better not interfere. Or do you not know who I am? I am Han Chentu, the second young master of the Han family! Do you understand now? Now get out of here!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan snorted coldly and said without any politeness, "Who do you think you are? A mere Qi Refining cultivator dares to spout nonsense in front of me? If you say another word, you'll bear the consequences. Don't blame me for not warning you first! Now, get out of here!"
Upon seeing this, Han Chentu was taken aback, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
It wasn't that he underestimated Lin Xiuyuan; after all, in the cultivation world, the strong are respected. He wouldn't dare offend a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the outside world, but in Pingshan City, a Foundation Establishment cultivator was just another name for himself!
Some Foundation Establishment cultivators in families wouldn't dare to do anything even if he scolded them, let alone an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator like him.
However, I originally thought that Lin Xiuyuan didn't know who he was, and that only a mere member of the Zhou family dared to stand up for Zhou Qingxue.
But to his surprise, Lin Xiuyuan still dared to say such things after he revealed his name...
Is this because they genuinely don't know his reputation, or because they don't take him seriously?
It's probably the former... As for the latter, Zhou, being a member of the family from outside the family, probably doesn't have the ability!
In an instant, Han Chentu said with a gloomy expression, "Didn't you hear what I said? You want me to bear the consequences? Are you tired of living? I am the second young master of the Han family, do you even understand? My brother is Han Chenhua, and my grandfather is Han Erhe!!"
Now it was Lin Xiuyuan's turn to be stunned. This mere Qi Refining cultivator actually dared to question a Foundation Establishment cultivator about whether he was tired of living.
This world is truly vast and full of wonders!
Perhaps Han Chentu has been arrogant and domineering in Pingshan City for too long, and he really can't distinguish between the big and small kings anymore. It seems that the Han family is really protective of its own, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to raise such a spoiled brat!
However, to be fair, the direct descendants of the Han family do seem to have the capital to be so arrogant and domineering, but perhaps they are a bit too arrogant!
Lin Xiuyuan smiled, a hint of coldness creeping into his lips, and uttered two words indifferently: "Noisy!"
The moment those two words were uttered, Han Chentu was struck as if by lightning, and he stumbled back several steps.
Finally, Han Chentu fell to the ground, his face turning deathly pale. His soul trembled, leaving him dazed and with a vacant, unfocused gaze.
Whether it was due to the shock in his soul or because he was too shocked to react, he stared intently at Lin Xiuyuan, unable to speak for a moment.
At this moment, not only was Han Chentu shocked, but even Zhou Qingxue was somewhat shocked.
Initially, she was delighted to see Lin Xiuyuan so domineering. However, seeing him directly resort to violence immediately shocked her, and even made her feel a little worried...
"Get lost, and try making that noise again!"
Lin Xiuyuan sneered, looking down at Han Chentu.
Upon hearing those two words, he immediately activated his divine sense, creating a thunderous sound that made Han Chentu feel as if he had been struck by lightning.
Although being provoked by such a Qi Refining stage cultivator made Lin Xiuyuan feel a bit angry, he would probably kill the other party if he were outside.
But since they were still in Pingshan City, Lin Xiuyuan was somewhat wary of the Han family.
Having been in the Cloud Soaring Sect for many years, he no longer knew as little about this region as he had before.
Moreover, he has made a point of setting aside time over the years to peruse countless jade slips, and has become thoroughly familiar with all the major and minor forces in the Yunmeng Mountains.
The Han family is also a medium-to-large family, belonging to the same Yunxiao sect. Some of their direct descendants have entered the sect to cultivate, but this does not include the person in front of them.
Lin Xiuyuan clearly sensed this through his sect token. The other party did not possess a token, indicating that he was not a disciple of the Cloud Soaring Sect. Therefore, he attacked without any hesitation.
The Han family surpasses the Zhou family by a significant margin, boasting three Golden Core elders. While their foundation may not match that of the Zhou family, they are far ahead in terms of top-tier experts.
The Han family and the Zhou family have some grudges, probably the kind of conflicts between powerful families and struggles for interests. Over the years, these grudges have accumulated and become blood feuds, gradually evolving into deep-seated hatred. That's why Han Chentu is targeting Zhou Qingxue in this way.
Therefore, Lin Xiuyuan did not kill him, out of fear of the other party's background, but simply taught him a lesson.
A family of this caliber is extremely powerful, and Lin Xiuyuan naturally has to be wary of them. However, there's no need to be overly afraid, after all, he is a disciple of the Cloud Soaring Sect, and teaching someone a lesson is no problem for him.
