Chapter 1819: Chapter 1815: Are You Questioning Me? (First Update)
The overwhelming anger accompanied by a strong scent of blood enveloped the entire banquet hall.
Everyone was stunned by the scene before them.
Someone actually dared to kill right in front of the Great Clan Leader in this banquet hall.
How bold must this person’s courage be?
Indeed.
Li Tulü’s expression gradually turned somber, his eyes fixed on Xue An, and he let out a cold laugh.
“From your tone, it seems you’re questioning me?”
With these words, a violent oppressive force rushed toward Xue An like a raging storm.
This pressure was so terrifying that merely the aftershocks caused many people to pale and repeatedly retreat.
One could only imagine the immense pressure Xue An was withstanding.
If it were an ordinary strong cultivator, they might have collapsed on the spot. Yet Xue An didn’t even blink, as if it was just a gentle breeze, calmly speaking, “Answer yes or no, cut the extraneous nonsense short!”
Boom!
His words shook the entire venue.
Especially among the White Tiger Clan members, there was an uproar.
“Has this kid gone mad? How dare he speak to the Great Clan Leader like that?” someone exclaimed in shock.
“Heh, he really has a death wish!” someone sneered.
Amidst this boiling tension, Li Tulü let out a sinister laugh.
“Interesting, truly interesting! It’s been a long time since someone dared speak to me like this. You’re the first!”
Then, he turned to look at Huyue and said mildly, “Prince Hu, since this person came with you, I’m keen to know if his attitude represents your Qingqiu Fox Country, or just himself?”
His words were cleverly spoken.
If Huyue didn’t want to get involved, he could simply say it only represented himself, distancing Qingqiu Fox Country from this issue.
This was also Li Tulü’s intention, as he didn’t want to fall out with Huyue just yet.
He believed that the heir of the Qingqiu Fox Country would surely see through his intention.
And anyone with a sound mind would make the correct choice.
But who would’ve expected that in response to Li Tulü’s question, Huyue would slightly shrug, smiling a half-smile, and said, “Though I hate to admit it, his words also represent my stance!”
This reply left not only Li Tulü but also the father-son duo of Li Hai and Li Xiongling astonished on the spot.
Was this a complete fallout with the White Tiger Clan?
Over a worthless servant girl?
Li Tulü, who had weathered many storms, quickly regained composure and spoke in an icy tone.
“Huyue, I hope you know the implications of your words! Is it truly worth opposing my White Tiger Clan over a despicable Human Clan member?”
“A despicable Human Clan member?” Huyue burst into laughter as if he had just heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.
Amid the laughter, the elite of the White Tiger Clan silently assembled, readying themselves.
After laughing for nearly a minute, Huyue gradually reined in his mirth and looked at Xue An with a mischievous expression.
“Old Xue, did you hear that? He called you a despicable Human Clan member! It’s killing me, hahaha!”
Xue An, however, remained expressionless, his gaze unwavering as he looked at Li Tulü in the distance.
“So, they…,” Xue An pointed at the women of the Jade Rabbit Tribe.
“…were all harmed by you?”
“So what if we did?” Li Tulü, fuming with anger, replied coldly.
He hadn’t expected an orderly banquet to turn into this.
All for a trivial servant girl, first someone had slaughtered his clansmen right in front of him, and then even the Qingqiu Fox Country defied him.
All of this left him agitated, and his anger shook the very atmosphere of the White Tiger Clan’s Territory.
“Good, acknowledgment is all I need!” Xue An nodded slightly and then lowered his gaze to the tearful female demon of the Jade Rabbit Tribe.
“Were they involved?”
The Jade Rabbit Tribe woman nodded through her tears, unable to speak a word.
“Stop crying, and watch closely. I’m going to make them pay for what they’ve done!”
With that, Xue An surveyed the crowd, a chilling smile playing at the corner of his mouth.
“Every one of you… must die!”
As soon as these words were spoken, before Li Tulü could respond, Li Xiongling leaped out first, shouting angrily, “Where did this brat come from, thinking he can act recklessly in my White Tiger Clan’s Territory? I’ll take your life today!”
Saying so, he lunged forward.
Li Xiongling, while not as formidable as the Immortal King-body Ao Yi, was still quite formidable.
Especially with the additional power of the White Tiger bloodline, making him far superior to cultivators of the same rank from the Human Clan.
This was why he dared to be so arrogant.
Especially now, in front of the Great Clan Leader and many clan elders, if he could crush this unknown young man in white, it would surely boost his prestige immensely.
With this thought in mind, Li Xiongling charged at Xue An with a ferocious grin, eyes filled with excitement and cruelty.
His speed was incredibly swift; in the blink of an eye, he had crossed most of the banquet hall, approaching Xue An.
But before he could react further, Xue An suddenly lifted his hand in that crucial moment and delivered a slap.
Slap!
A sharp, resounding smack echoed, and Li Xiongling, who had been charging in with such aggression, was swatted away like a puppet with its strings cut.
He uncontrollably spat out several mouthfuls of blood while still in mid-air.
This scene caused a stir among the White Tiger Clan members.
Finally.
Li Xiongling barely landed on the ground, with half of his face swollen to double its size and his eyes filled with utmost resentment.
He was utterly furious.
What in the world was happening these days?
Why did everyone seem to be against his face?
First Ao Yi almost ruined his looks, and now a Human youth had slapped him silly, in front of the entire clan.
How could this not fill him with grievance?
Xue An, however, seemed to have swatted away a mere insect, not even blinking, and casually said, “Continue!”
“Die!” Li Xiongling was on the brink of madness, his eyes bloodshot, and his joints crackling before he revealed his true form.
He transformed into a majestic White Tiger.
He coldly stared at Xue An before springing at him.
In his true form, Li Xiongling’s speed and power more than doubled from before.
Many couldn’t react in time, only seeing a streak of white light rushing toward Xue An.
Xue An remained immovable, as if he were in a meditative state.
Many sneered inwardly.
This kid is doomed!
But in the next moment, the sneers froze on their faces.
For at the exact instant the white light reached Xue An, a hand seemingly carved from flawless jade appeared out of thin air, gripping the light.
