Xu Guang stood in front of General Wei, reaching about his knee level.

Zhu Cheng stood beside him, looking at General Wei with a complex expression.

General Wei had become stronger again.

This powerful sense of oppression was truly... suffocating.

"Have you sent people?"

Zhu Cheng snapped back to reality, "Indeed, they've all taken action. After all, this is their business."

After hesitating, he spoke again.

"But some people are just going through the motions."

Xu Guang merely nodded, not saying more.

In the distance, two figures shot out from the alley like arrows.

One charged straight towards Xu Guang, while the other ran in another direction.

Wu Teng looked at the giant object that suddenly appeared before him, his eyes nearly popping out.

He instantly knew who had come.

"Master Xu!? These people have rebelled, kill them quickly."

He seemed unaware that the people behind the Pill Tower were Xu Guang's.

Xu Guang ignored him, only looking towards Pan Feng, who was escaping into the distance.

Seeing Xu Guang ignoring the situation, Wu Teng tried to pass Xu Guang...

Bang!

An object, like a giant python, suddenly appeared before him.

Wu Teng's body flew backward like a cannonball.

After breaking through several walls, he finally stopped slowly.

The experts pursuing Wu Teng flinched, slowly raising their heads to look at the giant creature, as majestic as a mountain, in the distance.

Was this Xu Guang's... Great Beast?

The Great Beast lazily swung its long trunk, its golden eyes sweeping over them.

An unprecedented sense of fear arose.

Unbeatable...

Approaching means death...

"Greetings to Master Xu!"

Xu Guang waved his hand, saying nothing, merely raising the Snow Dragon Bow in his hand, aiming at Pan Feng, who was frantically fleeing.

This Pan Feng excelled in Lightweight Skill, though not as good as Xu Guang, and was not someone an ordinary Seventh-Grade could catch, otherwise he wouldn't have escaped from the Jiufeng Mountain's Law Enforcement Hall.

As the bow was drawn, vital energy and blood quickly dissipated.

The black arrow transformed into a stream of light.

Bang!

In the distance, Pan Feng, in mid-air, exploded as if hit by a cannonball.

A rain of blood fell from the sky.

In an instant, the world fell silent.

Everyone looked at Xu Guang in disbelief.

Since entering Qingshuo County and knowing of Xu Guang's existence, many knew of his loyalty and righteousness, but had sighed over his lack of talent in the Martial Dao.

But it seemed...

Everyone had been wrong about Xu Guang's Martial Dao talent...

An arrow powerful enough to blow up a Seventh-Grade expert indicated unimaginable strength...

Xu Guang glanced at the three Seventh-Grade experts who were already dumbfounded, furrowing his brow.

"Which families are you from?"

"Sun Family's Sun Chuan."

"Niu Family's Niu Feng."

"Pu Family's Pu Shaoping."

"Greetings to Master Xu."

"I remember, doesn't the Li Family have a Seventh-Grade expert?"

"Just killed by Wu Teng."

"And the Guo Family? Were they also killed?"

Everyone exchanged glances, remaining silent.

Xu Guang asked no further.

When the giant creature left with earth-shaking footsteps, numerous experts stood in place, wiping nonexistent sweat from their foreheads.

A sense of relief appeared in their hearts.

Looking at the vaguely visible giant creature on the long street,

they seemed to know.

The Guo Family...

Was finished.

Master Xu's things weren't so easily taken.

...

This incident caused quite a stir, and some in the Iron Armor Sect naturally knew.

Bang!

The Grand Elder Liu Ning slammed his hand on the table, shouting angrily.

"What is Xu Guang doing? Relying on the Great Beast to be so arrogant, does he really think no one in the sect can deal with him?"

In truth, he understood Xu Guang's intention—establishing his might.

He knew what business the Pill Tower was in, what's more, he once harbored greedy thoughts.

But since Tie Kuang stayed put, he also refrained from acting.

This time, though, Xu Guang killed two tribulators of the Iron Armor Sect, albeit outsiders, they were considered people of the sect, especially now, when they were just about to work for the Song Clan, two Seventh-Grade martial artists were quite important.

Tie Kuang, showing signs of weariness, was troubled and agitated by the search for Ghost Horse Sect remnants.

"Shouldn't you go and warn him, Grand Elder?"

Liu Ning suddenly looked at Tie Kuang, despite his enmity with Tie Kuang, he knew Tie Kuang's nature, could it be that Xu Guang had some backing?

"Speaking of which, Master Xu, though young and impetuous, his actions can be understood, they're also asserting our Iron Armor Sect's power, those recently arrived Dharma Protectors from outside have been quite unruly!"

Liu Ning, solemnly serious, all traces of anger vanished from his face, as if someone else had spoken those words moments ago.

Inwardly, Tie Kuang called him a 'cunning old fox.'

However, he wasn't going to try to play Liu Ning at this moment, instead he sighed, hinting,

"Master Xu is a gentleman transforming like a leopard, it's truly a fortunate thing for our Iron Armor Sect to attract him to join us."

...

The Guo Family.

Already completely surrounded by the disciples of the Iron Armor Sect's Master Hall.

The Guo Family, a family in Changsong Prefecture, fought fiercely compared to other prefectures nearby. Back then, the Guo Family followed a major family in Changsong Prefecture, which had Innate experts.

Sadly, during the civil war, that major family was annihilated, but the Guo Family, taking advantage of the pending liquidation, sold their assets and fled.

After arriving in Qingshuo County, because of their long-term exposure to Innate experts, the Guo Family harbored a sense of superiority over the people of Qingshuo County.

"Xu Guang, do you really intend to drive us to extinction?"

The Guo Family's patriarch wore a face of rage, although their main family had been annihilated, after years of operation in Changsong Prefecture, they were still deeply connected with some Innate experts.

Xu Guang's business sought them out, and they felt it was Xu Guang who benefited from the arrangement.

Unexpectedly, simply for not sending experts to besiege Wu Teng and Pan Feng, Xu Guang dispatched people to surround their family.

Truly, Xu Guang was arrogant.

Xu Guang showed no expression, though he valued the Guo Family greatly. After all, they promised to help him obtain treasures only used by Innate experts, he believed they had this capability.

However, the Guo Family ultimately disappointed him.

Thinking of this, he patted the back of General Wei.

"Ah Wei, it's up to you, leave a few alive, kill the rest."

The Guo Family naturally did not want to sit and wait for death.

But soon, they fell into despair.

The nearly invincible General Wei showed them the true meaning of such a giant beast rampaging on the battlefield.

Their weapons couldn't even slice through General Wei's outermost tough fur, let alone touch the scales on General Wei's body.

In just a few breaths, the Guo Family's proud Protectors fell in a circle.

Not just fallen, strictly speaking, they turned into mincemeat.

General Wei's massive size meant that those hit by its attacks rarely left whole corpses.

Seeing this, the disciples of the Iron Armor Sect showed some enthusiasm in their eyes, then charged forward, wielding their blades.

Xu Guang sat atop General Wei, leisurely drew his bow, nocked an arrow, completing the process in one motion.

Guo Chuang did not want to fight, but he knew he was just a tool for Xu Guang to establish his power.

"Master Xu, this matter is my Guo Family's fault, I'm willing to give up half of our family assets, just to ask for a way out!"

Not the slightest trace of pity could be seen in Xu Guang's eyes, he merely shook his head.

"The members of the Guo Family must die today, actually, you should have perished back in Changsong Prefecture."

"Think it through, in your next life, live well."

Xu Guang slowly drew his bow, aiming at Guo Chuang.

His things weren't so easily taken.

He finally understood the feeling when discovering traitors among his servants.

He admitted it, the feeling was quite unpleasant.

...

Moments later, all the items in the Guo Family's treasury were neatly arranged in the courtyard.

Many disciples now followed Xu Guang from the Iron Armor Sect, over sixty in total, each showing delight while looking at the items before them.

Master Xu was always generous, these items...

They had contributed today, even if they had never fought such favorable battles before.

Following behind General Wei to finish off the wounded.

Xu Guang descended from General Wei's back, surveying the boxes, selecting the ones filled with spiritual essence, and tossing them onto General Wei's back.

"Xiaosong, count these items, I want fifty percent, distribute twenty percent among the other four families, twenty percent to the brothers, and the last ten percent, send to the Li Family, saying it's Xu Mou's compensation to them."

The Li Family were the unfortunate ones, where Wu Teng had slain their Seventh-Grade family head.
