Chapter 651: One Punch Victory

re cultivator. As far as he knew, there was Zhou Tong from a long time ago, and Cheng Tao's father from recently, both in Xuan Ye City. Facing these golden core cultivators, he didn't have the slight...Cao Guang before him, even at the early stage of Jindan, already possessed extraordinary strength. Especially after years of battling demonic beasts, his entire being was imbued with blood-qi, making even ordinary Jindan cultivators feel a bit discomposed upon encountering him.

"Boy, judging by your appearance, you're not very old. You're full of youthful vigor and always do impulsive things. It's fine when nothing happens, but this time, it's because you dared to touch someone from my Zhenwei Hou Mansion." Cao Guang let out a vicious laugh, a heavy palm slamming towards Lu Xiaitian's chest. A pair of black boxing gloves appeared on that fan-like hand.

This person actually went for a close-combat route as well. Their fighting style was incredibly fierce, with massive palm strikes that nearly completely enveloped Lu Xia Tian.

Although these cultivators might not necessarily be physical practitioners, their fighting styles are fierce and dangerous. Those who can survive the battles with demonic beasts usually possess extraordinary abilities.

"You're looking for death!" Cao Guang saw that Lu Xiaoteng didn't dodge or evade, standing there like a log, his eyes calmly watching his attack approach.

At this time, despite being covered in the power of battle, he was not yet fully recovered from the war. His state of mind was affected, becoming more bloodthirsty and violent than usual. Although Lu Xia Tian's invisible Qi had dispersed his palm strike, causing Cao Guang to feel a chill, he had seen countless dangerous situations on the battlefield.

Lu Xia Tian's calmness in Cao Guang's eyes became a kind of disdain. The enraged Cao Guang's iron palm once again struck towards Lu Xia Tian's chest. This blow was enough to split mountains and crack rocks.

Over a distance of dozens of meters, Cao Guang vanished in a flash.

However, just when Cao Guang was furious and thought he was about to succeed, the emotions on his face suddenly turned into astonishment and bewilderment, along with a hint of disbelief.

Because a hand clad in ancient silver armor had seized him, like steel pincers, clamping him tightly. Cao Guang shook his hands, but no matter how his magical powers surged and raged, he couldn't escape Lu Xia Tian's grip.

"Want to break free" Lu Xiaotian's eyes turned cold, and with his left hand, he threw a simple, direct punch. But the sound of his fist breaking through the air was like a shrill whistle.

Cao Guang's face turned pale with fright. He directly slapped his palm across his chest, barely blocking Lu Xiaoteng's punch. However, the immense force of the punch sent his hand crashing into his own chest, a violent surge of power striking him in the heart.

Cao Guang coughed up blood and flew backwards, his body like a broken sack, tumbling several times on the ground.

"Thinking of escaping" Lu Xia Tian saw Cao Bao turn his horse around at this moment, sneered, and with a flick of his finger, a sword qi flashed at his fingertips.

Then, the spirit horse beneath him neighed in pain. A wave of bloody stench suddenly filled the air.

"Be careful." Cao Guang gritted his teeth and leaped from the ground, pushing Cao Bao aside. This time, Cao Guang didn't suffer much injury. After all, Lu Xiaotian only needed a small attack to deal with Cao Bao, a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.

It was just that the divine horse beneath him had already been torn apart by the sword qi and scattered across the ground. Cao Bao was so frightened that his legs trembled. Just now, if it hadn't been for Cao Guang's sudden charge, he would have ended up like this divine horse, dismembered into eight pieces. Seeing Cao Guang with such a gruesome face, Cao Bao felt remorse in his heart. His third uncle was also a valiant warrior with a far-reaching reputation. Moreover, this place wasn't far from the residence of Marquis Zhenwei, and once a fight broke out, if any commotion arose, the experts from the Marquis's mansion would quickly arrive to provide support. But he never expected his third uncle to be so incompetent, beaten down by a single punch.

“You’re a man of some strength, but you protect such a weakling. Get lost!” Lu Xia Tian waved his hand. With Cao Guang’s intervention, the murderous intent from Lu Xia Tian dissipated somewhat. After all, this was near the Zhenwei Hou Mansion. Since the mansion’s skilled fighters had returned, killing these two now wouldn’t be appropriate.

“Stop!” A dire wolf broke through the sky, and the sound of hooves pounded on the ground.

In a blink of an eye, dozens of soldiers clad in black armor and wielding long spears surged forward like quicksilver. They instantly separated Cao Guang and Cao Bao, forming a semicircle around Lu Xia tian.

Above the sky, on Di You's dog's back, was Cao Kun, and also Cao Xi’er, the third young lady of the Cao family.

"This, you, Lu younger brother, how could it be you" Cao Kun rushed to the scene, seeing a mess and Cao Guang who was seriously injured and vomiting blood. His face turned pale, and Cao Bao, who hadn't recovered yet, added to his distress. Looking at Lu Xiaoteng who was unharmed, Cao Kun's face showed an expression of disbelief.

“Am I very strange” Lu Xia Tian stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the black cavalry surrounding him. In his eyes, they were nothing. He glanced at these restless but fearful cavalrymen. A sigh escaped his lips. One careless mistake had led to this situation. It seemed he couldn't stay at Zhenwei Hou's mansion anymore.

“Qun Bei, it's him! It was him who hurt me before, and now he has hurt Third Uncle again. He even wants to kill us both!” Cao Bao recovered at this moment, his anger rising as he roared. Seeing that more people from the Hou Mansion were arriving, his courage returned.

"Lu, Lu younger brother, what's going on here Is there a misunderstanding" Cao Kun's face showed a trace of embarrassment.

"I suppose so, Old Cao. If you don't want to suffer any losses, let these people disperse. We've been friends for decades, and I don't want you to lay a hand on me." Lu Xia Tian glanced around. His deputy spirit had already gone on alert, thinking about an escape route. Although he wasn't afraid, if he were surrounded by the Jindan experts of the Cao Mansion, it would be quite troublesome.

"Kumb, why haven't you made a move yet" Cao Bao urged.

“Lu, brother, you... are you the Shadowman” Cao Kun ignored Cao Bao and thought about the past thirty years, how there had been several instances of the essence of sun and moon gathering in the Hou Mansion. Although Dou Fenghu's battle had deterred many people, over time, some couldn't help but become restless. After all, the Shadowman couldn't stay in the mansion forever, and some inevitably succumbed to greed and the temptation of treasures. Two more Nascent Soul cultivators' heads were added to the tally for Zhenwei Hou Mansion. The Shadowman remained as ruthless as ever.

To Cao Kun's surprise and delight, the mysterious figure in black seemed to appear just in time every time. So he started paying attention and, after communicating with Hou Zhenwei through a letter, Hou Zhenwei was also puzzled by the matter of the mysterious figure in black. He directly replied "no," asking Cao Kun to discreetly investigate some people within the mansion. However, he was unable to find out the true identity of the mysterious figure. As for Lu Xiaottian, he didn't care about anything in Hou Zhenwei's mansion, but after thinking about it, he also felt that his origins were suspicious. However, Lu Xiaottian had never done anything harmful to the mansion. Cao Kun initially had suspicions, but wasn't too sure. After all, even Di Youquan didn't find anything unusual in Lu Xiaottian's aura.

However, Cao Kun, despite his wealth of experience, didn't seem to realize what was happening before his eyes.Tian and Nie Kong Ant each comprehended the techniques of spatial divine abilities. Within the Qingguo Barrier, another powerful aura surged into the sky.Lu Xia Tian emerged from this state of cultiva...
