Chapter 1350 - Mortal Enemies
Liu Wuxie fixed his gaze on the middle-aged man at the rear. Of everyone present, he was the weakest, his foundation unstable. He had to have seized that body not long ago and was still in the adaptation period.
A member of the Lingqiong Clan stepped forward and glared at Liu Wuxie, unleashing an Earth Immortal Realm aura.
"I didn't expect the Lingqiong Clan to be a pack of cowards. What a disappointment," Liu Wuxie said as the Heavenly Dao Book unfolded and negated the Earth Immortal Realm pressure.
At his words, every head turned. It had been years since anyone dared speak to the Lingqiong Clan like this. Even the sect master addressed them with courtesy, yet Liu Wuxie had called them cowards; even the Heaven Gaze Realm cultivators looked shocked.
"Liu Wuxie, you're courting death!" Lingqiong Zhi snarled.
Just as he moved to strike, Lingqiong Gong stopped him. If they attacked Liu Wuxie now, Hua Feiyu would surely intervene. From the moment they entered, the Lingqiong Clan had dismissed Liu Wuxie, refusing even to meet his eyes.
"How domineering. This is the Heavenly Dragon Sect, and the sect master is here. Does your Lingqiong Clan plan to overrule the sect master?" Liu Wuxie mocked, his tongue as sharp as a blade.
The Lingqiong Clan stood among the sect's upper echelons, but everyone remembered what they had done. Long Xiao had even decreed that the Lingqiong Clan's descendants couldn't be allowed to partake in the Heavenly Dragon Sect's affairs.
"What a nimble-tongued brat," Lingqiong Gong said, releasing a Quasi-Immortal Realm aura toward Liu Wuxie. Though not true immortality, that realm stood infinitely close to it.
"Lingqiong Gong, why stoop so low to act against a junior?" Hua Feiyu waved a hand and dispersed the aura. An invisible contest began—power pitted between the sect's upper echelons and the Lingqiong Clan.
"Sect Master Hua, this brat dares to insult my Lingqiong Clan. Do you want to shield him?" Lingqiong Gong demanded, gaze cold, displeased by Hua Feiyu's action.
To him, someone at the Primal Origin Realm was nothing before the Lingqiong Clan; Liu Wuxie was not even an ant. He could sweep away a crowd of Primal Origin Realm cultivators with a flick of the hand.
