“What an idiot…”

Many people sneered, a truly insignificant force, unable to even understand what was being said.

Could the leader of the Seven Slaughter Gang, that fool, actually think that they were referring to Wen Nan Tian?

Some thought so.

Under the incredulous gaze of many, Wen Nan Tian casually swung the peach wood sword inscribed with the characters "Tai A" in his hand towards the menacing leader of the Seven Slaughter Gang.

It wasn't particularly fast, yet it gave everyone the feeling of being inescapable and unavoidable.

“Crack!!”

A crisp sound.

Wen Nan Tian strolled past the suddenly stopped leader of the Seven Slaughter Gang. As they brushed past each other, the leader's body exploded into a bloody mist.

“Hiss~!”

“Hiss!”

“Hiss!”

Gasps of shock echoed throughout the crowd. Everyone present was struck speechless.

Although the Seven Slaughter Gang wasn't a major force in the Southwest Dao, their leader was not weak. He was at least a master who had reached the Realm of Natural Harmony, yet he was killed instantly without a single trace left behind?

An elderly man with a staff, seated comfortably like a fisherman waiting for a catch, gazed at Wen Nan Tian. His eyes shone with intense light: "Such a sharp and terrifying sword. I've been in the world for years and yet I still misjudged him.”

“This kid, he’s not ordinary!"

Hui Xi Jun and Bai Wu Xia also showed signs of fear.

"Anyone else who wants to stand up for Yan Bie Tian, come out now.”

Wen Nan Tian stood tall, his white clothes spotless. Holding the Tai A wooden sword in one hand, he said calmly.

He calmly looked at all the strongmen, family patriarchs, and sect masters of the Southwest Dao. Where his gaze passed, everyone avoided his eyes, afraid to meet his gaze.

“Audacious!”

Yan Bie Tian couldn’t help but yell angrily, “Boy, today is a joyous occasion for my Yan family. I didn’t want to bother with you, but you’re being so pushy. Qing Lang is my close friend, he just wanted to mediate, yet you took a heavy hand. Do you really think my Yan family is easy to bully?"

These words caused many present to scoff.

The leader of the Seven Slaughter Gang was vicious and merciless, mediation? Killing was more like it!

"If these are your last words..."

The Tai A wooden sword in Wen Nan Tian's hand slowly lifted, its blade pointed directly at Yan Bie Tian, "Then you can die!"

The third master of the Gu family, who had been so scared by Gu Luo Li's corpse that he had scrambled away, stood up again for Yan Bie Tian, shouting angrily at Wen Nan Tian, "You arrogant young man! You’re being reckless!!”

The fifth master of the Gu family, who was responsible for security and was hidden in the crowd, also stood up.

"Today is the wedding of my Gu family and the Yan family. Young master, if you are here to celebrate, please join us for a drink. If you're here to cause trouble, don't blame my Gu family for being ruthless!"

They had finally managed to cling to Yan Bie Tian, having already done something irreparable. No matter what, they had to stand on Yan Bie Tian’s side. Moreover, today was the marriage of the Gu and Yan families.

Wen Nan Tian had killed in public, not only slapping the face of the Yan family, but also throwing the face of the Gu family on the ground and stepping on it.

“My grievance is with Yan Bie Tian. You’re interfering, is that your decision or are you…”

Wen Nan Tian’s head held high, he looked down at the third and fifth masters of the Gu family, his Tai A wooden sword turned, pointing at these two useless things who lacked self-awareness, and asked indifferently, “Want to be my enemy?”

The third master of the Gu family sneered, "Humph, even if you are the grandson of the Wen family, this is the Southwest Dao. Do you really think my Gu and Yan families are afraid of you?"

A little kid, thinking he's a sword immortal just because he’s a little famous?

The third master of the Gu family didn’t believe in such absurd claims of becoming a sword immortal at such a young age.

The fifth master of the Gu family didn’t say anything, but he stood next to the third master, which indicated his stance, their Gu family would intervene in the matter between Wen Nan Tian and Yan Bie Tian.

“Damn it!"

Gu Jian Men felt cold sweat break out. How dare those two fools do that?

But before Gu Jian Men could jump out to stop them, Yan Bie Tian had already taken a step forward: “The third master is right, you little brat, I'm letting this slide for the sake of my younger sister’s wedding with Gu Jian Men. But since you’re so aggressive, I’ll draw a line in the sand today, my Yan family and the Gu family will accept your challenge.”

"Come!"

“Yes!!”

With Yan Bie Tian’s order, everyone in the wedding banquet, inside and outside the Gu family, responded.

Dong~!

A huge tremor echoed.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man made of bronze, leaping in from outside the Gu family, like a mountain, he slammed hard onto the ground. Just that one foot caused the floor to crack and shatter, sending dust flying everywhere.

“Hiss! Copper head, iron arms, Bai Wu Shang?"

Someone couldn't help but exclaim.

This man was very famous in the Southwest Dao. Others cultivated from the Realm of Diamond Mortal to the Realm of Natural Harmony. But Bai Wu Shang specialized in brute strength, his Iron Shirt and Golden Bell skills had brought his diamond physique to the level of a true copper head and iron arms. He had once withstood a joint attack by three masters in the Realm of Natural Harmony without a scratch.

He was definitely a master who was no less than a master in the Realm of Unbound Heaven.

“The ultimate in brute force, a body of diamond? ” Wen Nan Tian almost misjudged him, but after looking for a while, he shook his head, “Almost there, but not quite.”

This person's bone structure was strong, he walked the path of brute force, although he was in the Realm of Diamond Mortal, he was much stronger than the average master in the Realm of Natural Harmony, it was easy to misjudge him if you weren’t careful.

At this moment, several other voices rang out.

"I wonder if we are enough?”

A young man with snow-white hair but jade-like features, and a young man in purple clothes appeared like ghosts and phantoms, the purple-clad man gently waving a folding fan.

They were followed by four people shrouded in black robes.

Two masters in the Realm of Unbound Heaven!

"Even Heaven's Beyond is involved.” Wen Hu Jiu’s eyes flashed with a glint of fierceness, then he remembered that this was his nephew's home turf, and he didn’t get involved.

“Any more?"

Wen Nan Tian didn't care, he just asked calmly.

“Add me, how about that?" A steady voice echoed, everyone looked towards the sound, and saw a tall, black-robed man. The man’s hands were white and withered, and he looked like a skeleton in a huge robe.

Another master in the Realm of Unbound Heaven!

Moreover, he was stronger than the previous two.

“If that’s all…”

“Not enough!"

“But since you insist!”

“Then…”

Wen Nan Tian’s eyes were calm, his figure slowly rose into the air, he shouted loudly, “Please step aside, everyone. Today, I want to see what gives the Gu family and the rest of you the guts to interfere in my private affair with Yan Bie Tian!"
