Not far away, Li Hu, who had been standing behind the old man, vaguely felt a gaze sweeping over him. When he looked up and saw Qin Luo's figure, his pupils shrank.
The scene of being taught a lesson by Qin Luo that day instantly flashed before his eyes, and his body involuntarily tensed up, his eyes filled with resentment.
The old man in blue noticed his unusual behavior, frowned slightly, and asked, "Little Tiger, what's wrong?"
Li Hu quickly lowered his head and said through gritted teeth:
"Grandpa, he's the thief who broke into our yard and injured me that day!"
You have to understand that after being tricked by Qin Luomeng that day, he was hoarse on the ground for an hour before the servants found him. He ended up lying in bed for more than half a month before he recovered. This grudge was like a thorn stuck in his heart, and he couldn't bear to let it go.
Unexpectedly, fate was still on his side, and he ran into her here. Moreover, the elder who had loved him the most since childhood was sitting next to him.
Li Hu felt a surge of excitement. He knew his grandfather had recently broken through to the Soul Contract Realm, greatly increasing his strength. With him around, Qin Luo wouldn't be able to escape today!
Thinking of this, Li Hu continued to fan the flames beside the old man in blue robes, saying, "Grandpa, you must avenge this! This villain is truly despicable. He not only made me suffer endless humiliation, but also made our Li family look utterly worthless."
"Back then, he acted recklessly in our Li family, completely disregarding us. If we don't teach him a lesson, where will our Li family's authority be?"
Upon hearing this, the old man in blue robes narrowed his eyes and slowly raised his head to look in Qin Luo's direction.
Looking at the young man standing straight and meeting his gaze without the slightest fear, he was somewhat surprised; this boy was quite bold. But thinking of the injustice his grandson had suffered, his face darkened.
“Young man, was it you who broke into my Li family and injured my grandson that day? Do you know that my Li family is a prominent family in Xufeng City?”
"It seems you don't take the Li family seriously at all by doing this."
The old man spoke calmly, his tone carrying the imposing air of someone who had held a high position for many years.
Qin Luo patted Yi Ting's hand, which was tightly wrapped around his arm, to reassure her that she wasn't afraid, and then chuckled softly:
"Oh? Didn't your grandson tell you that all of this was voluntary?"
"One was willing to hit, and the other was willing to be hit. I was just going along with his demands."
After saying that, he glanced at Li Hu with disdain, as if mocking his intelligence at the time.
"you!"
The thought of that incident ignited Li Hu's rage, and he stared intently at Qin Luo, his eyes filled with a look that seemed to want to devour him alive.
The old man in the blue robe looked even more gloomy. He knew his grandson's usual behavior, but as an elder, how could he tolerate others disciplining his junior in front of him?
"Hmph, that's just sophistry. No matter what, you hurt my grandson, and today I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your elders."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man slightly raised his hand, and spiritual energy surged forth from it. The next moment, the spiritual energy in his hand rushed towards Qin Luo like a surging tide.
Qin Luo's eyes narrowed, and he quickly pulled Yi Ting behind him. He made a hand seal, and a surging spiritual flame instantly formed a scorching high-temperature barrier in front of Qin Luo. The emerald-like flames emitted a chilling heat.
Inside this spiritual flame barrier, a stable spiritual aura acts like a solid force, maintaining the shield's structural stability.
The blue-robed elder's surge of spiritual energy crashed violently against the "Flame Rhythm Shield," producing a dull thud.
The powerful impact generated a shockwave that made the surrounding air howl, and dust flew up, blurring the surrounding scenery.
A single emerald flame stood firm and burned amidst the billowing dust.
The old man in blue narrowed his eyes slightly; he hadn't expected this young man to be able to block his attack.
"You've got some skill, but I'd like to see how many times you can block it!"
After a moment of contemplation, he once again channeled the spiritual energy within his body, and an even stronger wave of energy gathered in his hand.
At this moment, the billowing dust began to dissipate, and a glimmer of purple light flashed within it, appearing in front of the blue-robed old man in the next instant.
At this moment, Qin Luo's right hand had completely turned into a dark green jade color, and the high temperature emanating from it caused the surrounding air to subtly distort.
"Overestimating yourself!"
The old man in blue robes did not expect that he would dare to rush up on his own initiative. Did he really think that his Soul Contract Realm cultivation was something to be trifled with?
The surge of spiritual energy in his hand immediately changed, swirling in his palm like a small vortex, radiating a powerful suction force. The surrounding air was distorted by this suction, and the pebbles and dust on the ground flew towards the center of the vortex.
The old man in blue robes looked coldly at Qin Luo as he rushed over, a disdainful smile playing on his lips.
He made a claw shape with his hand, and instantly the vortex of spiritual energy transformed into a giant spiritual claw ten feet long, covering his hand. With a step, he rushed towards Qin Luo.
In an instant, the Flaming Palm and the giant claw of spiritual energy collided.
After the blazing spiritual flames and the abundant spiritual energy clashed violently, a deafening roar was heard, followed by a powerful shockwave that spread wildly outwards from the point of impact. The surrounding air was instantly torn apart, emitting a sharp whistling sound.
Qin Luo's Flame Palm was quickly suppressed by the giant claw of spiritual energy, and the blazing flames seemed to dim slightly in an instant.
Upon seeing this, the old man in the blue robe showed no sign of smugness. Instead, he stared wide-eyed at Qin Luo with disbelief.
"Spirit Vortex Realm! How is that possible?"
When he clashed with Qin Luo, he also sensed Qin Luo's cultivation level, and his heart was filled with shock.
How could someone at the mere Spirit Vortex Realm possibly contend with him?
While the old man was still in shock, Qin Luo remained calm. Although the quality of his spiritual energy was not as good as that of the Soul Contract Realm, quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and he had plenty of spiritual energy anyway.
In an instant, spiritual energy continuously gathered in the Flame Rhyme Palm, making it even more profound and mysterious.
The previously suppressed fiery palm began to erupt with even more intense heat, making the surrounding air seem to ignite. The spiritual flames pulsed wildly, gradually devouring the giant spiritual claw.
In a short while, the situation had completely reversed. Under the engulfment of the spiritual flames, the giant spiritual claw gradually blurred like a candle flickering in the wind.
Seeing that things were not going well, the old man in blue robes pushed his hand, and a three-zhang-long dark blue python appeared above his head. As the python hissed, patches of blue scales appeared on the old man's body, and he quickly retreated.
"Trying to run?"
Qin Luo snorted coldly, and the Flame Rhythm Palm in his hand instantly swallowed the giant spiritual claw. Purple starlight appeared under his feet, and his whole body turned into a blurry purple shadow. The spiritual flame in his hand left a long tail of flame at this speed, and in an instant, it was imprinted on the old man's chest in the old man's frightened eyes!
