Duan Sanping, who was eating, looked at the tall man who came in, and his eyes suddenly shrank, and a trace of shock flashed across his face. He shouted loudly, "How is it possible? Xiong Ba, how could you cultivate to this level?"
The other guests were also startled by Duan Sanping's reaction, and they followed his gaze and looked at Xiong Ba. Apart from his tall stature and the exaggerated sledgehammer in his hand, they didn't see much else. However, since he could scare Duan Sanping, who was ranked third on the Earth List, like this, his cultivation must be extremely high.
There was a hint of surprise in the businessman's eyes. He knew Xiong Ba, who was once a figure on the local list.
It's just that he stayed there for too short a time and was squeezed out. However, Xiong Ba was only ranked 20th on the Earth List at that time. How could he possibly scare Duan Sanping like this?
Xiong Ba glanced at Duan Sanping, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes. He did not respond, but said to the waiter of the inn, "Please set up a new table for me."
The waiter of the inn agreed and hurried to the backyard to get a new table and placed it in an empty spot next to the window.
Xiong Ba sat down, ordered another pot of wine, and started drinking while eating. Duan Sanping saw that Xiong Ba ignored him.
He was immediately extremely angry. He had met Xiong Ba a year ago. Although he had the cultivation level of a peak Martial Emperor, his body was rather clumsy and he could not even take one of his moves at that time.
But when Xiong Ba came in just now, he sensed a fatal danger. He was born with extraordinary intuition, and the only one who could give him this feeling must be a Martial Emperor, and not even an ordinary Martial Emperor.
Duan Sanping finally stood up, walked towards Xiong Ba angrily, and said with a bow, "I am Duan Sanping, the Death Blade. Please teach me."
Xiong Ba looked at Duan Sanping without saying anything. Instead, he waved his hand gently. Suddenly, a huge force blew Duan Sanping out of the inn window and he fell on the road. Duan Sanping climbed up from the road with blood spitting out of his mouth. He didn't dare to say a single harsh word and ran away quickly.
About half an hour later, Duan Sanping walked in from outside, looking at Xiong Ba with a vicious face. Behind him followed a group of men in black, led by a fat young man dressed in brocade clothes. Duan Sanping said a few words to the young man with a flattering look on his face and pointed at Xiong Ba.
The man in brocade clothes led his people to Xiong Ba's table. He didn't know what level of cultivation Xiong Ba had, so he smiled and said to Xiong Ba, "I don't know where your friend is from. You dare to provoke my demon sect. Do you want to be my demon sect's enemy?"
Before Xiong Ba said anything, the guests at other tables in the inn were terrified. They didn't expect that Duan Sanping actually knew someone from the Demon Cult and could invite him to support him.
He immediately looked at Xiong Ba with eyes full of sympathy. You know, if Cangwu Continent offends the Demon Cult now, it is basically the same as seeking death.
Xiong Ba looked at the man in brocade clothes and asked calmly, "I don't know who you are in the Demon Cult, and how did I offend you?"
The man from Jindu looked at Xiong Ba deeply. He felt that this person was a little too calm. Was he born with a big heart, or was he confident in himself?
Duan Sanping on the side couldn't stand it anymore, he slammed the table and shouted at Xiong Ba, "Xiong Ba, do you know who you are talking to? Master Chen is the leader of the Demon Cult stationed in the imperial city of the Dagan Dynasty. You can't just ask casually."
Xiong Ba said nothing, and took out a palm-sized token from his arms. On one side of the token was written the word "tiger", and on the other side was written the word "bear". He threw it directly on the table and said, "I wonder if this helmsman recognizes this token."
The man in brocade robe looked at the token with a surprised expression. He had seen such a token before, it was on his father. His father was also the helmsman a few years ago. Later, because of his meritorious service, he was rewarded to go to the Demon Cult headquarters to practice for a period of time. After he came back, his cultivation level soared directly to the middle stage of Martial Emperor.
Half a year ago, he broke through to the peak of the Martial Emperor and was promoted to an elite disciple of the White Tiger Hall. At that time, his father had such a token in his hand, but his father's token had the word "Bai" written on one side and the word "Chen" written on the other.
His father said that anyone who holds this token will be one of the people who will ascend with the leader for the first time, and should never be provoked unless absolutely necessary.
"Sir, please put the token away quickly. I didn't expect that you are the Tiger Guard under the Demon Tiger King. I am really short-sighted. My name is Chen Qi, and my father is an elite disciple of the White Tiger Hall." The man in brocade clothes whispered to Xiong Ba.
Xiong Ba frowned as he looked at Chen Qi. Although Chen Qi had just called him "Sir", he deliberately said that his father was an elite disciple of the White Tiger Hall, which was obviously a reminder to him that there was someone behind him and that he should not make things difficult for him.
Chen Qi saw Xiong Ba frowned, then remembered his father's advice, and turned to look at Duan Sanping.
Duan Sanping felt something was wrong when he saw Xiong Ba take out the token, and later he heard Chen Qi call the other party "Master Tiger Guard".
He immediately realized that he had offended someone he shouldn't have, and immediately wanted to turn around and run away. Unexpectedly, before he could run, Chen Qi looked at him and stretched out a hand to hit him on the head.
Before Duan Sanping could react, a huge force shattered his head. Chen Qi slowly withdrew his hand, wiped it gently with a handkerchief, and said to Xiong Ba:
"Lord Tiger Guard, this man actually dared to sow discord among our Demon Sect. He deserves to die. I have things to do here, so I won't disturb you from eating." After saying that, he bowed to Xiong Ba, turned around and left with his men.
Xiong Ba looked at Chen Qi who was leaving and Duan Sanping who was lying dead on the ground, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect Chen Qi to be so decisive in doing things, and he would definitely not be an easy target in the future.
Everyone in the inn was still in a daze. They originally thought that Duan Sanping had brought people from the Demon Cult and Xiong Ba was doomed to die. However, they did not expect that Xiong Ba was also a member of the Demon Cult and his status was obviously very high.
At this time, the old man sitting in the corner of the inn stood up, bowed to Xiong Ba, and asked, "Sir, I don't know what the realm above the God of War is. Can you tell me?"
Xiong Ba looked at the old man and said, "Actually, this is no longer a secret. In a few days, the Devil's Cult will announce the realm to the world."
Seeing that everyone in the inn was listening, Xiong Ba continued, "In fact, there is no such thing as the Martial God Realm. In the upper realm, it is uniformly called the Tongxuan Realm. There are ten levels in the Tongxuan Realm, and the Martial God corresponds to the first four levels."
"Then I wonder what level of cultivation the Demon Cult leader has!" the old man asked after hearing this. The girl standing behind the old man tightly grasped his clothes.
Xiong Ba frowned and said loudly, "How can you know the master's cultivation? You only need to know that the master is invincible in the world."
