A Chaotic World

Chapter 272: The Girl above Origin Core Realm

"Hmm?" Beiwei Jinguo felt a little confused when the impact that he was waiting for did not arrive.

Not able to bring himself to watch, he had turned away just before Boren slammed his palm into Tianzi. But why did the sounds that came after that not fit the scene playing out in his mind?

Filled wih curiosity, Beiwei Jinguo slowly turned his head back to check out what was going on.

He did not know what he was expecting to see initially, but the scene before him certainly wasn't it.

Tianzi remained standing in his dignified posture, his hands clasped behind his back. From the looks of it, he was completely unharmed.

On the other hand, it was the three other young men who ended up on the ground, grovelling in front of Tianzi as though they were begging him for mercy!

"This what happened?" Beiwei Jinguo blurted out in confusion. His mind was in a complete mess right now.

Yet before anyone could answer him, the door flew open and a man who looked to be in his fifties rushed into the front hall.

The moment he entered, the man's gaze landed on the three young men grovelling on the ground, and his face turned livid.

At the same time, the three young men's faces lit up in joy when they noticed the man who just arrived.

This was especially the case for Zirui. After all, this person who just arrived was none other than his teacher, Elder Guo of the Healer Circle!

"Zirui!" the newly entered Elder Guo exclaimed before glaring at Lu Tianzi. "How dare you? Do you even know who you are acting against right now?!"

Elder Guo had managed to sense the use of Origin Force on the way here and, out of worry, rushed over to the front hall ahead of his peers. In the end, it was just as he had expected.

There was indeed someone here acting against his and Elder Ximo's students!

While Elder Guo was glaring at Lu Tianzi, Lu Tianzi was similarly taking a good look at him.

This man who had just rushed into the front hall might look to be in his fifties, but he was still a Third Cycle Origin Core realm martial artist. Just like Elder Ximo from before, he wore a white cape over his white long robes.

With that, Lu Tianzi could already roughly guess this man's status.

"Are you an elder of the Healer Circle?" Lu Tianzi asked. If this man was really an elder of the Healer Circle, then Lu Tianzi would certainly give him some face and take a step back.

But seeing that Lu Tianzi actually responded with a question of his own instead of answering immediately, Elder Guo harrumphed in displeasure.

With a wave of his hand, Elder Guo's Origin Force swept over the three young men, wanting to relieve them from the pressure that they were currently under.

However, this invisible pressure was far greater than what Elder Guo had expected. All he managed to accomplish was only to lessen the pressure by a little.

"Hmm?" Elder Guo frowned. "I guess you do have a few tricks up your sleeve. But if you think that this much is enough for you to act arrogantly here in the territory of the Healer Circle, then you are gravely mistaken!"

At this moment, two other figures rushed into the front hall through the open front doors.

One of them was a Second Cycle Origin Core realm martial artist who looked to be a middle-aged man, while the other was a familiar face to Lu Tianzi. It was none other than Elder Ximo who, just like Elder Guo, was at the Third Cycle Origin Core realm.

"Elder Guo!" Elder Ximo called out anxiously. "Please don't do anything rash!"

"It's good that you have arrived," Elder Guo called out to the two newcomers. "Hurry, come help me take care of this bastard!"

"Leave it to us!" the middle-aged man responded immediately.

With just a single look at what was in the front hall, the middle-aged man already roughly understood what had happened. Since Elder Guo already asked him for help, there was no reason for him not to act!

The middle-aged man immediately pointed his finger towards Lu Tianzi. Essence energy gathered at his fingertip, emitting a dark light that quickly intensified in terms of magnitude.

"Elder Nanjue!" Elder Ximo was shocked by the middle-aged man's decisive actions. "Please hold on and hear me out for just a moment!"

Lu Tianzi was speechless.

From Elder Ximo's words, the first man who entered should be called Elder Guo, while the one who entered along with Elder Ximo should be called Elder Nanjue.

This effectively confirmed his earlier conjecture that the two of them, just like Elder Ximo, were truly elders of the Healer Circle.

But even so, weren't they being a little too aggressive right now?

"Don't worry, Elder Ximo. With the three of us working together, I don't believe we can't handle this guy without alarming our other guests!" Elder Guo called out. "Let's teach this bastard a lesson!"

Elder Guo punched out and a fist materialised from pure Essence energy, erupting towards Lu Tianzi.

At the same time, the dark light on Elder Nanjue's hand quickly reached its peak intensity, and a beam of dark light fired out towards Lu Tianzi as well.

The beam of dark light joined together with the materialised fist, enveloping it and forming a dark fist multiple times the size of the original one.

It might seem like the two elders had attacked frivolously, but these two attacks came together and synchronised with each other perfectly. They not only did not get in each other's way, but they even complemented each other, causing the final output to be far greater than the sum of its parts.

It was almost as though the two separate attacks were actually two parts of a single move!

Beiwei Jinguo's eyes glazed out in despair.

It's over

This time, it's truly over

He did not know what tricks Tianzi pulled to subdue the three young men earlier, but this was a combined attack from two elders of the Healer Circle.

These were true blue Origin Core realm martial artists!

Even Qianxue would not be able to stand up against such a mighty offense!

On the other hand, the three young men felt their blood boil. This was their elders standing up for them, punishing the man who dared make a move against them!

How could they not feel excited?

At this moment, a cold light flashed across Lu Tianzi's eyes.

No wonder the students dared to act with such arrogance earlier. It was because they had learnt well from these elders who acted with even less restraint!

If Elder Guo had just stopped to introduce himself, then Lu Tianzi would certainly have taken a step back out of respect for his title, especially considering how they were planning to attend an event organised by the Healer Circle.

However, this Elder Guo had not even bothered to do so from the start. Before Lu Tianzi knew it, Elder Guo had already started asking his friends to join in for the fight!

Lu Tianzi had not wanted to invite trouble initially, which was why he simply suppressed the three young men with his Origin Force instead of physically acting against them.

Wanting to avoid injuring the three, Lu Tianzi merely intended to teach them a lesson and make sure that they realised the difference between them, all so they would give up of their own accord and learn not to be so arrogant in the future.

However, now that trouble had come knocking like this in the form of their elders, Lu Tianzi was not about to just suck it up and let them do as they wished either!

With a flick of his wrist, the Torrential Sabre appeared in his hand.

Lu Tianzi slashed out with the Torrential Sabre, producing a dominating sabre light that swept out horizontally across the front hall in the shape of a beautiful crescent.

Bang-!

Lu Tianzi's sabre light smashed directly against the attacks from Elder Guo and Elder Nanjue. Wild energy undulations from the collision knocked into the juniors in the front hall, forcing them to put up a guard with their Slaughter Essence.

Fortunately, the two sides were not truly going all out. Otherwise, there was no way that the juniors could remain unscathed at such close proximity.

The clash only lasted for a moment before the two sides came out even, with both attacks dissipating into the air.

But as the remnants of the attacks started to clear up, the two elders' minds started to become clouded instead.

No matter how they thought about it, they should have been able to suppress their opponent easily. After all, they were two against one. On top of that, both of their cultivation levels were higher than their opponent's as well.

Even though they did not put in all of their strength, it was obvious that their opponent did not either. All things considered, it simply did not make sense for their opponent to neutralise their attacks this easily!

They were not the only ones who were dumbfounded either.

In fact, apart from Lu Tianzi and Nanlan Qianxue, every single person in the front hall was shocked into silence, all of them unable to believe their eyes.

Still, Lu Tianzi's and Nanlan Qianxue's composure did not escape Elder Ximo's eyes.

Even though Elder Ximo wished that the other two elders had not made a move on Lu Tianzi, it was already a done deed, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Therefore, from the moment the other two elders launched their attacks, Elder Ximo had kept his eyes fixed on Nanlan Qianxue.

In their group of three, Beiwei Jinguo had been full of praises for this Qianxue's combat capabilities instead of the Origin Core realm Tianzi. While Elder Ximo had not fully believed in Beiwei Jinguo's words, he could not help but feel a little bothered by it.

If Qianxue really was as strong as Beiwei Jinguo had said, then she should be more than capable of helping out her companion in the face of the two elders' attack.

If she was not, then she should at least show some form of anxiety as her companion was forced to deal with two opponents.

But in the end, not only did she not make a move, she had remained in her seat with absolute composure.

Such a reaction had been completely out of Elder Ximo's expectations.

It was almost as though she had been able to see through the two elders' attacks, thereby perfectly predicting that her companion would certainly come out unscathed.

To be this confident despite facing multiple Origin Core realm martial artists a bad premonition could not help but strike Elder Ximo's mind.

The strength that her male companion possessed allowing a First Cycle Origin Core realm martial artist like him to draw even against two opponents of a higher cultivation level that was not natural at all.

However, such a thing might still be barely explainable if he had an extremely powerful master to guide him.

And what better master was there than a martial artist at the Overlord realm?

Qianxue might look young, but outer appearances were something that could be easily manipulated by someone of that level.

By now, Elder Ximo was already more or less convinced.

That young girl travelling with Beiwei Jinguo, despite her looks, was most likely a powerhouse at the Overlord realm!

Overlord realm martial artists might be few and far between, but it was not as though they were non-existent.

And unless they somehow managed to prove that she was not actually an Overlord realm martial artist, it was of absolute importance that they avoided offending her at all costs!
