Good grief, they were literally just studying how to prevent someone from spying on them, and now someone shows up?
All three — master and disciples — had anger appear on their faces at the same time.
Which Dou Sheng was this bored?
Under their gaze, space inside the wide cultivation chamber at the top of the tower suddenly rippled slightly. Then—
"Jie jie jie~"
A cold and eerie laugh slowly echoed throughout the chamber. Hearing that laugh, the expressions of the three instantly darkened.
That familiar laugh… There was no doubt — a Dou Sheng from the Hun Clan!
"We were careless back then and ended up raising a hidden threat. Such negligence… If I had known this day would come, I should have personally erased all of you."
From the distorted space, a shadowy figure slowly emerged.
A pair of blood-red eyes lit up slightly, looking down at the three. His voice carried coldness, annoyance, and even a hint of regret — but also reluctant admiration. He really was regretting it.
Years ago, right after the Pill Gathering and the destruction of the Hall of Souls division in the Death Soul Mountain Range, he already had the thought of personally eliminating this master-disciple trio to avoid future trouble.
But at that time, first — he was very busy. Second — he felt the targets were too weak. He was a dignified Dou Sheng, after all — lowering himself to personally kill weaklings felt beneath him. So he handed the matter to the Hall of Souls and didn't pay attention afterward.
Who could have imagined that just by overlooking them for a few years, all three of them would ascend to Dou Sheng realm?
Not just barely — they reached it fast. Too fast. It had only been a few years.
So fast he didn't even have time to react. It felt like he merely took a nap, and when he woke up, they were already his equals.
This cultivation speed was absurd. Not just him — the entire Hun Clan was stunned. Before they could even react, these three had already become Dou Sheng. When he first received the report, he was dumbfounded and almost thought he'd misheard it.
But now that he saw it with his own eyes — he had no choice but to believe it.
Ridiculous.
Wei Yang calmly stared at the shadowy figure and slowly spoke, "You came here specifically just to say all that pointless nonsense?"
As he spoke, Wei Yang flicked his finger, sending a formless blast of force that pierced through space like a bullet toward the figure.
"Since you're already here, hiding like a rat — come out."
Chi!
The blast was silent yet unbelievably fast, tearing through the warped space straight at the intruder.
"Hmph, petty tricks."
The black shadow snorted. Space around him suddenly trembled, and a dried, skeletal, jet-black arm shot out like lightning, grabbing the incoming blast — then squeezing.
Bang!
The formless force was crushed and dissolved into nothing.
"Nothing impressive."
The arm casually moved further out from the spatial tear. The limb appeared horrifyingly dry — as if only a thin sheet of blackened skin clung to bone. Strange rune-like markings pulsed faintly beneath the skin, emanating black mist.
The moment that arm emerged, the chamber seemed to dim, and an eerie suction force radiated from it, as if it wanted to pull in one's soul.
"Heh."
Wei Yang chuckled, raising his hand and striking forward. "Big tone for someone who doesn't dare show his face. Take another one — let's see how 'nothing much' you are."
Weng—
As his palm extended, it rapidly grew and transformed into a massive claw covered in black scales. A faint layer of gray energy coiled around the claw as it descended upon the skeletal arm.
"Oh?"
The shadow made a surprised sound. The dried hand curled into a fist and countered without hesitation.
Boom!
Claw and fist collided, and space between them instantly collapsed into fine dust. Strangely, no destructive shockwave spread outward.
It wasn't that the clash lacked power — rather, both sides deliberately controlled it, keeping all destructive force contained. Such control meant their mastery over power had reached an extremely refined level. It also meant neither side was going all out — this was merely probing.
Swish!
Wei Yang's claw suddenly reversed and grabbed hold of the skeletal fist.
Then—
Chi chi chi—
The faint gray aura spread rapidly, wrapping around the withered arm and beginning to corrode it.
Hmm?
The black figure seemed taken aback, clearly surprised by the strange gray energy spreading over his arm.
"This energy is quite strange… and extremely domineering."
He no longer dared treat it lightly. The black markings beneath his skin writhed violently, then shot outward like awakened venomous serpents, turning into a cloud of black mist that collided with the gray streams.
Chi chi chi—
In their fierce clash, the two forces silently erased each other from existence.
"You've got some skill, junior. That's enough for today. I'll take my leave."
Although both energies disappeared, his withered arm clearly suffered a slight loss. He did not continue to resist and instead pulled back decisively. With a sudden forceful twist, he broke free from the claw's grasp and rapidly retreated.
"You think you can come and go as you please? What do you think this place is?" Wei Yang's voice turned cold.
It was obvious the intruder had only come to test the waters and never intended to fight seriously. But Wei Yang had no intention of letting him walk away so easily. He thrust his arm forward again.
The massive claw chased through the spatial rift, tearing forward to seize the black figure.
"Hmph, junior, how dare you push your luck!"
Inside the pitch-black tear, the shadow finally grew irritated and released a cold roar. A pitch-black finger shot out at lightning speed, colliding with the approaching claw head-on.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Claw and finger clashed repeatedly. The space around them shattered inch by inch, and an overwhelming force erupted, carrying countless fragments of spatial dust as it surged outward. Within a hundred meters, the void collapsed violently.
At the same time, the shockwave burst outward through the spatial crack, flooding into the tower's sealed chamber. Seeing this, Xiao Yan and Yao Lao instantly acted, releasing vast spatial power to contain the energy before it could destroy the room.
Hmph.
Both Wei Yang and the shadow let out muffled grunts. Wei Yang twisted his arm slightly and withdrew it from the spatial rift.
Step. Step. Step.
Meanwhile, the shadow staggered backward several meters before stabilizing himself.
"You little—!"
His chest rose and fell sharply. Through the torn space, his eyes locked onto Wei Yang with cold fury and embarrassment. On his pitch-black finger, black flames flickered alongside countless tiny lightning arcs — clear evidence he had been struck by Wei Yang's Heavenly Flame.
"Now you can leave." Wei Yang flicked his sleeve and said indifferently, "Next time, don't barge into someone's home like an idiot. Very rude. Now get out. I won't be seeing you off."
The shadow glared at him fiercely. After a long silence, he finally spoke in a low voice.
"Good. Very good, junior. But don't get too pleased with yourself. The fact you managed to grow to this point is indeed a mistake of my Hun Clan."
His tone dropped to an icy chill.
"But do not think for a moment that means my Hun Clan fears you."
