Ye Shuangshuang was naturally hot-tempered and straightforward. If someone insulted her, that was one thing; she would either beat them up or walk away! But if the target of the insult was Mu Bingling or her family, she would be the first to charge forward and make them pay the price!
"Say that again!!"
The already hideous faces of the tall, thin man and the short, fat man twisted in fury! For twenty years, they had lived under the scornful gazes of others! If not for their looks, they might never have achieved their current strength! It was precisely those judgmental stares that made them yearn to become stronger than anyone else!
And all those who had once scorned their appearance had become nothing but withered bones under their feet as they climbed to their current heights!! How many years had it been? It had been a long, long time since anyone dared to say such a thing to their faces!!
"Good! Just fine! On account of your beauty, I was going to help you out, give you a chance!! But it’s too late. Now, even if you kneel and beg, you won’t get our forgiveness! Die!!"
The short, fat man’s thick eyebrows shot up! A bloodthirsty glint flashed in his eyes as a massive Primordial Energy Vortex erupted from his body! A terrifying Emperor’s pressure bore down on Ye Shuangshuang and Mu Bingling, and the ensuing gale forced them to slide backward uncontrollably!
"HA!!"
With a furious roar, the short, fat man’s body was instantly wreathed in streaks of purple thunder! In the blink of an eye, four dazzling purple Martial Rings burst forth from beneath his feet!
At that moment, Ye Shuangshuang and Mu Bingling were utterly stunned! They could never have imagined that a man with such a repulsive appearance and vile personality was actually a Thunder Attribute Martial Artist—the attribute with the most explosive power! What’s more, his Martial Artist Realm was as high as the Emperor Realm Fourth Ring!!
"Hmph!"
After the short, fat man unleashed his Primordial Power, the tall, thin man snorted and revealed his own Martial Artist Realm as well! And when he did, a frosty pallor fell over Ye Shuangshuang’s face!
"Thunder Attribute! A Fifth-Ring Martial Emperor!"
...
In an instant, the formerly quiet Mist Forest was awakened by two terrifying Emperor Realm power fluctuations! Everyone for hundreds of miles around turned their gaze in their direction!
’This is...’
"Those are the Primordial Power fluctuations from those two guys."
"Heh, what do you guys think? Infighting, or did they find some newcomers?" a small group of five mused from a distance.
"Is that even a question? It has to be newcomers. If it were one of our own, they’d know how strong those two freaks are and would never provoke them. Still, this seems like overkill for newcomers. Why unleash such terrifying Primordial Power?" another person commented with a sigh.
"It’s definitely not normal for them to get this worked up. I heard they got this angry once when they first joined the Outer Mountain, but that was because someone made fun of how they look. Don’t tell me... these newcomers made the same mistake?!"
"Very likely. Haha, those newcomers are in for it now." The person who had spoken first let out a chuckle, then turned and walked in the opposite direction.
The others did the same. In the face of such immense power, they chose avoidance over opportunism.
...
「At the same time」
Mu Chen, who was still hurrying along, suddenly frowned. He could sense that something was happening in the direction he was heading.
’This Primordial Power fluctuation... it’s terrifying.’
