Soul Emperor Awakening

Lin Xue thought her eyes were deceiving her. Lin Xuan had really appeared, his entire body wrapped in a golden radiance. He made an incredibly domineering entrance, sending two Fang Family Elders flying with just two punches. They were killed instantly, dying after a brief twitch.

It was a one-hit kill. The sight of the two Elders’ deaths was gruesome—their entire backs had been shattered. ’Is this tyrannical power something a human can even wield?’

"Die!"

A golden glint flashed in Lin Xuan’s eyes. He stomped the ground and shot forward, rushing toward another Elder. Before the dumbfounded man could react, Lin Xuan landed another heavy punch, sending him flying. Another one-punch kill.

Meanwhile, Jin Feng and Jin Shi had already taken care of the surrounding Fang Family disciples. They were all small fries, easy to handle.

"Are you okay...?" Lin Xuan reached out and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, his voice full of guilt. "I’m sorry, I’m late." He truly had been too late. If he hadn’t rushed over without a moment’s rest, Lin Xue would have been captured.

’By the time I rescued her, who knows what kind of abuse she would have suffered. Even razing the Fang Family to the ground would have been no consolation.’

"Brother Lin..." Lin Xue threw herself into his arms. After a brief, tender moment, she snapped back to reality and said urgently, "Father and the others are inside, fighting the Fang Family’s Patriarch!"

"Fang Feng..." Lin Xuan sneered. "It’s finally time to settle this debt once and for all. He was always after me before, and now he wants to wipe out the Lin Family. He’s really going to pay the price for that! Come on, let’s go in!"

Lin Xuan took Lin Xue and rushed inside. The Lin Family disciples, frozen in shock at the entrance, stared in amazement. This was Lin Xuan! A living legend, their true Young Master, a prodigy so talented he was leagues above them all. But in the beginning, he had been frequently abused and even called "Blind Lin Xuan."

Now, he had killed a respected Elder in just a few moves. This power deeply shook them. Those disciples who remembered the old Lin Xuan were now truly ashamed. They had once mocked him, but now he was miles ahead; they weren’t even in the same league.

Lin Xuan never cared about any of that. It was all in the past. Besides, he only took special care of the Lin Family for the sake of Lin Feng and Lin Xue. As for the rest, he couldn’t care less.

As he rushed inside, the sounds of a fierce battle reached his ears. Loud booms echoed continuously, and so many rocks were shaken loose from the cave walls that it looked as if it was about to collapse.

After they rushed out of the passage, they finally saw the many Elders of the Fang Family, as well as some Honored Guests. Otherwise, the Fang Family couldn’t have gathered so many powerful experts.

"Scram!"

With Lin Xue in his arms, Lin Xuan charged forward, his body shimmering with golden light. Before the Fang Family members could react, he sent them flying with a few punches. Experts at the Essence Pill Stage Level were like tofu before him, easily crushed.

With his current Physique, he was truly at a level that could crush anyone on the Human Continent. He could kill scores of people with his physical strength alone. If he were to use his Elemental Power, not even a Spirit Pill Stage expert would be his match.

This was the prerogative of a Divine Beast—a powerful body that could clash head-on with many human experts. But Lin Xuan didn’t just have a powerful Physique; he also possessed the Elemental Power of a Divine Beast. He could defeat opponents of the same level with a casual wave of his hand. As he charged through, several people were sent flying, crashing into the stone walls and coughing up blood without end.

He left the rest for Jin Shi and the others to handle. ’In truth, I could have left everything to Jin Shi, but I wanted to do this myself. I want to personally eradicate the Fang Family!’

"Your father should be outside, fighting fiercely with Fang Feng. We’re going out now."

Lin Xuan rushed out of the cave. Just as he emerged, he saw Lin Feng and Fang Feng leaping around on the rocky walls of the volcano. As their weapons clashed, wild Elemental Power sprayed in all directions, constantly surging into the volcanic lava below and kicking up wave after wave.

It looked as if their battle was about to trigger the volcano, causing it to erupt.

"Lin Xuan!" Fang Feng’s eyes widened when he saw Lin Xuan appear. He hadn’t expected him to be here.

When Lin Feng saw him, he was stunned for a moment, then his heart filled with wild joy. ’As long as Lin Xuan is safe, that’s all that matters. He is the Young Master of the Lin Family.’

"Patriarch Fang, it really has been a long time. To be honest, I’m the one who killed your son and that Elder of yours. I’m sure you must have guessed it, right? Now I’m admitting it. How does that feel?" Lin Xuan sneered. There was no longer any need to hide it.

"So it really was you! I’ll kill you!" Fang Feng roared, ignoring Lin Feng and charging toward Lin Xuan. He raised his great saber and swung it down at him.

"No need to help. I can handle this myself." Lin Xuan didn’t even put Lin Xue down. He gestured for Jin Feng and Jin Shi not to interfere, his eyes glinting with golden light as he stared intently at the descending Fang Feng. He had no intention of dodging.

At that moment, he activated the Soul Possession of three Core Formation Stage souls. His aura instantly skyrocketed. Combined with the power of the Golden Dragon King’s possession, Golden Dragon Scales erupted all over his body. The unparalleled, tyrannical aura of the Golden Dragon King stunned Lin Feng and the others to their core.

Fang Feng was also dumbstruck, but his saber was already on its way down, and he had no intention of pulling it back. He could only put all his strength into the heavy downward chop, roaring, "Just die!"

CLANG!

The heavy chop landed with the sound of metal striking metal. Such a powerful blow couldn’t even cut a fraction of an inch deep. It only left a small gash on Lin Xuan’s palm. Red blood flowed out, but he felt not the slightest bit of pain.

"Patriarch Fang, I can’t believe that in six months, your Cultivation has regressed instead of progressed! I have no idea how you’ve been cultivating all this time!" Lin Xuan laughed loudly. His open palm clenched into a fist and smashed forward. A golden gust of wind from the punch swept out and slammed viciously into Fang Feng’s chest.

THUD!

With a dull thud, Fang Feng was knocked back, slamming hard against the wall. His chest was slightly caved in. Although the punch didn’t kill him outright, he had several broken ribs, and his injuries were not light.

"You... your power..." Fang Feng was utterly horrified. His mind was in turmoil, like a stormy sea. This power was far beyond his imagination.

In truth, it wasn’t that Fang Feng had gotten weaker, but that Lin Xuan had gotten stronger!

"What’s wrong? You can’t even handle a junior like me, and you call yourself a Patriarch?" Lin Xuan laughed. "I’ve already leveled Qingcheng Mansion; otherwise, I would have been here sooner. Now it’s time to finish you. Get him!"

The words had barely left his mouth when Jin Feng stomped on the ground and shot forward. Before Fang Feng could even react, a heavy punch smashed him into the rock wall. With a great RUMBLE, a large chunk of rock broke off and fell into the lava below.

With that one punch, the feud between the Lin Family and the Fang Family was finally brought to a close!

The Fang Family was annihilated!
