Mo Wangchen walked alone through this place.

In the bustling Forest Garden, talents from all directions were gathered. He looked utterly inconspicuous, and likewise failed to draw anyone’s attention.

From a pavilion, a Jinyi Youth stepped out, surrounded by a crowd of men and women, clearly someone with an impressive background.

"Guyun Sect’s Senior Disciple Luo Yuansheng!"

"It’s actually him, I didn’t expect he’d come too."

All around, many people were surprised as they recognized the identity of that Jinyi Youth.

This was the Senior Disciple of Guyun Sect.

Looking across all of Lizhou, Guyun Sect might not be worth mentioning, but within a radius of a hundred thousand li around this area, it absolutely counted as a top-tier major sect.

Luo Yuansheng, as Guyun Sect’s Senior Disciple, had already reached Reverse Life Realm sixth layer in his Cultivation. Among the many geniuses attending tonight’s gathering, he was one of the most powerful.

"Reverse Life Realm sixth layer, huh..."

"His Cultivation is not bad. I just don’t know, once we exchange blows, how strong he really is."

Mo Wangchen murmured under his breath.

At present, he himself had already reached Reverse Life Realm fifth layer, a full minor realm lower than Luo Yuansheng.

But in terms of overall combat strength, Mo Wangchen was long past the point where ordinary Reverse Life Realm sixth-layer experts could be mentioned in the same breath.

One had to know, back when he was only at Reverse Life Realm third layer, he could already easily contend against Reverse Life Realm sixth-layer experts. Now that he’d reached the fifth layer, this was even more of a non-issue.

The difference, however, lay in the fact that Luo Yuansheng was a prodigy of the Heavenly Domain. Unlike the Saint and Demon Realms, this was the ancestral land of the Nine Divine Clans. Experts were as numerous as clouds; whether in Cultivation Technique or other aspects, they were far superior to the Saint and Demon Realms by an unknown margin.

When all factors were taken into account, Mo Wangchen didn’t dare claim he could easily take the other party down.

"Friend, you’re blocking my way."

Just as Mo Wangchen was bowing his head in thought, a cold voice suddenly sounded by his ear.

He snapped out of his contemplation and looked up, only to find that Luo Yuansheng had somehow already walked to stand right before him, clearly intending to pass through here.

Mo Wangchen was momentarily startled, and hadn’t yet had time to react.

He then heard a woman at Luo Yuansheng’s side sneer in contempt. "Look at this idiot, he’s blocking Senior Brother’s way and doesn’t even know to move aside."

With that, she stepped forward, raised her chin, and stared straight at Mo Wangchen with great arrogance. "Didn’t you hear what my Senior Brother said? Hurry up and get lost."

"Hm?"

Mo Wangchen had originally not intended to stir up trouble and had already been planning to give way.

But the words coming out of this woman’s mouth made him somewhat displeased.

Were all people of the Heavenly Domain this arrogant?

If this woman had been speaking kindly, Mo Wangchen would have been too lazy to bother with her.

But she opened her mouth with ugly words, telling him to hurry up and get lost.

Although he didn’t want to cause trouble, being ridden over like this—given Mo Wangchen’s character, how could he possibly act as if nothing had happened?

He merely said in a flat tone, "I was standing here first, wasn’t I? If you want to pass, why not take a detour?"

"Hm?"

The moment these words left his mouth, everyone present couldn’t help but be stunned.

Very clearly, no one had expected that someone would actually dare say such words in front of Luo Yuansheng.

This was completely giving Luo Yuansheng no face at all.

One had to know, as Guyun Sect’s Senior Disciple, on ordinary days, who didn’t treat Luo Yuansheng with utmost politeness upon seeing him?

Since when had someone not only blocked his path, but even righteously told Luo Yuansheng to go around on his own!

"Brat, did I hear you wrong? Do you know who’s standing in front of you?"

At Luo Yuansheng’s side, a young man stepped out. He too was a Disciple of Guyun Sect, accompanying Luo Yuansheng here this time.

Now, seeing someone dare be so disrespectful toward Senior Brother Luo, these Guyun Sect Disciples naturally couldn’t help but grow angry.

"Why waste words with such a nameless nobody? He even dares block Senior Brother’s path—just suppress him directly." Another person sneered.

As he spoke, he stepped forward. The moment his words fell, he directly struck.

A large palm pressed toward Mo Wangchen. This man possessed Reverse Life Realm third-layer strength; against an ordinary person, he’d likely have to be taken quite seriously.

But at this moment, in front of Mo Wangchen, a mere Reverse Life Realm third layer was far too weak.

"Buzz..."

With a cold snort, Mo Wangchen likewise lifted his right hand. It transformed into a great palm and slammed out.

"Bang!"

In an instant, the two attacks collided.

Vast Reverse Power surged, churning the surrounding area.

The next moment, that Guyun Sect Disciple was sent flying outright.

He let out a miserable cry as blood spurted from his mouth, and his body slammed heavily onto the ground not far away.

This was with Mo Wangchen having held back.

Otherwise, with his current Cultivation, he could have killed the other party in the blink of an eye.

After all, he had just arrived here and didn’t want to stir up too much trouble. If he really killed someone in front of so many people today, Guyun Sect would definitely not let the matter rest.

"Hm?"

"Senior Brother Lin!"

Seeing this, the faces of the others all showed looks of shock.

Very quickly, they rushed over and helped that Senior Brother Lin up from the ground.

"I was careless. I didn’t expect this person’s strength to be this decent!" Senior Brother Lin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression turning extremely ugly.

Obviously, being defeated with a single palm by Mo Wangchen in front of so many people caused him to feel utterly humiliated.

"Who might you be?"

Luo Yuansheng stepped forward, slightly raising his chin as his gaze swept over Mo Wangchen.

This Junior Brother surnamed Lin had followed him for many years, and now he’d been injured by Mo Wangchen. As the Senior Disciple, how could Luo Yuansheng possibly not demand justice for him?

However, his subconscious was also telling him that this unknown young man likely had an uncommon background.

After all, the other party had dared to make a move even after knowing his identity, clearly feeling he had nothing to fear.

"You can call me Mo Wangchen." He replied calmly, meeting Luo Yuansheng’s gaze.

"Mo Wangchen, is it..."

Luo Yuansheng narrowed his eyes, standing in place in silence, as though searching his memory. After a long moment, he spoke. "You are not someone from our ’Thunder Realm,’ are you?"

Lizhou was vast beyond measure, and thus was divided into countless Great Realms. The place they were currently in was a region of Lizhou known as the Thunder Realm.

"Is that very important?" Mo Wangchen countered.

"Since you’re not of the Thunder Realm, and yet you still dare injure my Guyun Sect’s Disciple within Thunder Realm territory, there’s no way I can just sit back and ignore it." Luo Yuansheng said calmly.

In the Thunder Realm, hundreds of nations and thousands of sects stood side by side. Their Guyun Sect could be counted as one of the few top-tier sects in the entire Thunder Realm, to the point of being called a hegemonic force.

No matter what background or identity Mo Wangchen had, now that he was within Thunder Realm territory, Luo Yuansheng had nothing to fear.

"Is that so?"

Mo Wangchen smiled. He happened to want to test out the strength of these so-called geniuses of the Heavenly Domain. The Luo Yuansheng before him, with his Reverse Life Realm sixth-layer Cultivation, was a perfect opponent to practice on.
