Golden Buddha Temple! The people from the Golden Buddha Temple had arrived!

Seeing the yellow-robed monk, Nie Luping hastily approached to greet him, fawning as he said, "Grandmaster Xuanzheng, I did not expect you to come personally. I have failed to welcome you from afar, which is truly an offense."

Grandmaster Xuanzheng! The surrounding people all froze upon hearing this title, their eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty as they gazed at the yellow-robed monk.

"It's actually Xuanzheng, said to be a legendary figure of the Golden Buddha Temple. Who would have thought he would come himself today!"

"Grandmaster Xuanzheng became a Half-step Grandmaster at the age of thirty and a Martial Arts Grandmaster at forty—a heaven-sent prodigy indeed!"

"Incredible! Grandmaster Xuanzheng should be over seventy years old by now, but he looks to be only in his thirties or forties!"

Exclamations of amazement continued unabated.

However, at this moment, Xuanzheng completely ignored these people, including Nie Luping who had greeted him respectfully.

"Repeat what you just said!"

Monk Xuanzheng looked down upon Qin Heng, his eyes narrowed slightly and blazing with fury. His enormous aura made the air around them seem viscous. The three disciples behind him also glared furiously at Qin Heng, as if they could make a move at any moment!

Being ignored, Nie Luping was not angry. After all, he knew he was only a Half-step Grandmaster and was well aware of the gap between himself and Xuanzheng, so he merely stood quietly aside.

The surrounding people also fell silent, watching coldly, curious to see how Qin Heng would respond. Just moments ago, he had shown no regard for the Golden Buddha Temple whatsoever! Now, a Martial Arts Grandmaster from the Golden Buddha Temple had arrived! What could he do?

"What I just said, did you not hear clearly?" Qin Heng slowly stood up, chuckled lightly, and said, "Insects, kneel and accept your death!"

BOOM!

As soon as these words were uttered, the crowd exploded into a commotion. Everyone present burst into fervent discussion! They all looked at Qin Heng in disbelief, as if staring at a madman. Such audacity! Daring to speak to a Martial Arts Grandmaster like this! Moreover, this was a Martial Arts Grandmaster from a reclusive sect, the Martial Arts Grandmaster of the Golden Buddha Temple! He was truly courting death! Absolutely seeking his own doom!

Xuanzheng was so angry his face turned ashen. Clenching his fists, he gnashed his teeth at Qin Heng and coldly snorted, "Brat, you are the first person to ever dare speak to me like this!"

"And you will be the last," Qin Heng said, looking at Xuanzheng and gently shaking his head with a smile. "Because you will not see tomorrow's sun. Your life ends today."

"How audacious! What did you say! Master! Let me strike and kill this ignorant brat!"

"He's young, but his audacity is immense! Master, please let me do it! Today, I'll show him the might of the Golden Buddha Temple!"

"Master, let me do it instead!"

All three of Xuanzheng's disciples vied with each other, eager to take action and teach Qin Heng a lesson!

"Silence!" Xuanzheng waved his hand and, looking at Qin Heng, said, "Lad, I saw Wen Dao's body by the door. Killed in a single blow. Your strength is indeed impressive."

"Since you know that, you can kneel and accept your death," Qin Heng said indifferently. "After killing you, I still need to go to Mount QianFo and exterminate your Golden Buddha Temple. I'm pressed for time."

The people around were stunned by Qin Heng's words. This was far too arrogant! Utterly presumptuous! He actually dared to proclaim, in front of the Martial Arts Grandmaster of the Golden Buddha Temple, that he would annihilate the entire Golden Buddha Temple! Simply courting death!

Nie Xiaoxian's heart pounded with anxiety; she was utterly desperate. In this situation, Qin Heng had absolutely no chance of survival. Xuanzheng would never let him go! He might even kill him right in front of everyone!

Ah, Qin Xuantian, oh Qin Xuantian, you are just too proud. When you had the chance to escape earlier, why didn't you listen? What are you going to do now? You can't even run away anymore!!

Unable to practice martial arts herself, she had always yearned for the life of a martial artist and deeply admired talented ones. But in reality, such talented martial artists were exceedingly rare. Qin Xuantian before her eyes, without a doubt, was one of them. And now, he was about to die at the hands of the Golden Buddha Temple. Such a pity.

"Hahahaha!" Xuanzheng laughed heartily, looking at Qin Heng as he said, "You ignorant fool! A Grandmaster of Transcendence, especially a worldly one like you, is far too weak before our ancient and hidden sects!

"Your martial arts are nothing but the most simplified, crudest remnants of techniques from our martial Dao sects. Even if you reach the Transcendence Realm with such arts, your strength is pitifully weak. I could kill you with one hand!

"The martial art I cultivate is called the 'Golden Buddha Divine Body Skill.' Once it reaches the Transcendence Realm, one can even withstand bullets without a scratch! That's something impossible to achieve within your worldly martial arts system!

"Lad, reflect on your arrogant ignorance now. With your caliber, what right do you possess to spout such nonsense? What right do you have to foolishly claim you will destroy my Golden Buddha Temple? Ignorant, and utterly clueless about death!!"

"That's right! What right do you have?" Xuanzheng's three disciples also sneered, "A worldly Grandmaster of Transcendence really thinks he's something special. Do you think you're Tianhai's Qin Xuantian!?"

"Exactly! Even if it were Tianhai's Qin Xuantian, also a young Grandmaster, he wouldn't dare proclaim he'd destroy our Golden Buddha Temple. And you, who just popped up from nowhere, dare to make such outrageous claims—truly seeking death!!"

These three green-robed monks actually knew of Qin Xuantian and, from their words, seemed to acknowledge his formidable strength. Clearly, they were paying attention to information about Qin Xuantian. However, Qin Heng had been using his Dao Body form at that time, so his appearance differed from his current one, and his temperament was worlds apart. Unless one had personally witnessed that earth-shattering battle that evening, it would be difficult to recognize him.

"Qin Xuantian killed Hong Tianshu on the Huangpu River with a single palm strike, shaking the world," Xuanzheng said, looking at Qin Heng with a smile that wasn't quite a smile. "Are you trying to emulate that Qin Xuantian, using my Golden Buddha Temple as a stepping stone to make a name for yourself?"

"..." Qin Heng was at a loss for words. This time, he truly did not know what to say.

The people around were also somewhat puzzled. Not many in Sichuan and Shu had heard of Qin Xuantian's name, as the news on the martial artists' forum had been deleted and sealed off that very night. However, there were many people here, and quite a few of them were in the know and began to explain to the others.

Thus, the descriptions began to spread: a young Grandmaster, eighteen years old and in the Transcendence Realm, possessing a celestial demeanor! On the Huangpu River, like an Immortal descended to the mortal world, with a mere wave of his hand, he overturned heaven and earth! With a single palm strike, he slew Hong Tianshu, the Divine Dragon of Nanyang, causing the Huangpu River to surge and boil! An unrivaled powerhouse indeed!

These descriptions filled the crowd with fervent excitement, and also deep regret that they had not personally gone to Tianhai's Huangpu River that evening to witness such a world-shaking battle.

Only Nie Xiaochen and Nie Xiaoxian stood there stunned, looking incredulously at Qin Heng, their faces filled with shock!

Xuanzheng looked at the silent Qin Heng. Thinking he was scared, a flash of killing intent flickered in his eyes, and he sneered, "Lad, are you regretting it now? Too bad, it's already too late!

"Even if Qin Xuantian himself were here and dared to make such bold statements, he would have to pay the price! Now, state your name. After all, you are a young Grandmaster, not some unknown. After I kill you, I will remember your name!

"It's a pity. Given time, you might have been able to rival Qin Xuantian. But you can blame no one but yourself for seeking your own demise!"

"Grandmaster Xuan... Xuanzheng..." Nie Xiaochen suddenly spoke up, pointing at Qin Heng. "When I met him before, he said... he said his name was... Qin Xuantian!!"

BOOM!

Simultaneously, Qin Heng took a step forward. He flipped his palm and struck out with overpowering force, as if an ancient Heavenly Sovereign were wielding a Divine Mountain, casting it down from the heavens straight towards Xuanzheng's head!

"You ask what right I have?" Qin Heng declared, "I, Qin Xuantian, intend to kill you. What does it have to do with you? You insect-like creature! When I kill, I kill. What need is there for a right? Die!!"
