The sound of the slap was crisp and clear. The cultivators from the Big Dipper Sect, including Lie Tiangyang, were stunned for a moment. Ye Lan, Yun Qingwan, and others standing beside Lin Tian were also shocked on the spot. Even some cultivators from other sects passing by stopped, surprised by the commotion. Gao Chengpeng, the person on the receiving end, was even more dumbfounded. Lin Tian’s slap didn’t carry any True Qi; it was simply pure physical strength, yet it sent Gao Chengpeng spinning around. Gao Chengpeng staggered for a bit, spun around, and finally steadied himself. His mouth was torn, several teeth flew out, and blood was flowing down the corner of his mouth. But, at this moment, he forgot the pain from this slap and instead stared blankly at Lin Tian, looking utterly incredulous. After a while, Gao Chengpeng finally stared blankly at Lin Tian and said in amazement. At this moment, he still couldn’t believe he had been slapped hard by someone. And it was right in front of so many people! The most important thing is, the one who slapped him was someone who came with the cultivators from the Tianlan Sect! If it were those prodigies from Sword Saint Mountain, those peerless geniuses who overshadowed their generation, not to mention being slapped, even if they made him kneel and kowtow, Gao Chengpeng wouldn’t dare utter a word of complaint, and would even be convinced! But this time it’s different! What kind of existence is the Tianlan Sect? In the entire East Continent’s cultivation world, it ranks as one of the weakest sects! An existence that most sects can oppress! Even though Ye Lan, as the sect master of the Tianlan Sect, has an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, and many other sects don’t have Foundation Establishment cultivators, it doesn’t stop those sects from suppressing the Tianlan Sect! Just because the Tianlan Sect is devoid of talent, the entire sect has only seven people, claiming a unique place in the East Continent Cultivation Realm! The primary cause is the incident involving Yun Qingwan a few years ago, which caused all the sects to start avoiding the Tianlan Sect, for fear of offending Sword Saint Mountain. In recent years, the Tianlan Sect even experienced defections by its foundational members, making its strength even more pitifully weak. If it weren’t for the Foundation Establishment cultivator Ye Lan holding it up, the Tianlan Sect might have long since ceased to exist in name only. It can be imagined how weak the Tianlan Sect is now, any sect power can step on it. Gao Chengpeng was slapped by a stranger who came with the Tianlan Sect! "Damn... did you hit me?" After a while, Gao Chengpeng spoke again, shouting the question. "Did water get into your brain? Slapping you so hard and you still ask if you were hit! Do you need me to slap you a few more times to wake you up?" Lin Tian, with a cold face, shook his head, and said speechlessly looking at Gao Chengpeng as if he were an idiot. For someone like Gao Chengpeng, Lin Tian could ignore him, but if he went too far with his own people, he was eager to hit him every time he saw him! If it were in another setting, Lin Tian would have wanted to slap him to death for clean and straightforward justice. "You’re looking for death!" Still in a state of semi-confusion, Gao Chengpeng, upon hearing Lin Tian’s words, was instantly angered and was about to rush over. But Lie Tiangyang on the side shouted and reminded, "This is Tianxiang Ancient Land, under Tianxiang Island, do you want to be as foolish as him?" Upon hearing this, Gao Chengpeng’s face stiffened, his whole body shivered, and he showed a look of fear. At Tianxiang Island, Sword Saint Mountain has a ban on fighting, violators will be severely punished on the spot! Thanks to his mentor Lie Tiangyang’s reminder, Gao Chengpeng came to his senses. "Once we’re off Tianxiang Island, you’re absolutely dead!" Gao Chengpeng gritted his teeth and said fiercely to Lin Tian. On the side, Lie Tiangyang scanned Lin Tian from head to toe, his face gloomy, and said harshly, "You’re not from the Tianlan Sect, and from your blood and energy, you don’t seem to be a cultivator, just naturally strong in physique with astonishing strength!" Lie Tiangyang couldn’t discern Lin Tian’s cultivation, puzzled, he could only speculate . These words made Ye Lan and the others opposite even more dumbfounded, looking at each other. Lin Tian is a proper Foundation Establishment cultivator, Yun Qinghe saw Lin Tian personally take action with the Samadhi True Fire surging on him, exterminating the cultivators from Snake Scorpion Valley, how could he not be a cultivator! "Who I am doesn’t matter, what’s important is that if you have nothing else to do, you can get lost now!" Lin Tian coldly glanced at Lie Tiangyang, and responded indifferently. Hearing Lin Tian’s tone, Lie Tiangyang’s face changed, he couldn’t help but shout angrily, "Ignorant child, such arrogance must be paid for!" Lin Tian slightly shook his head, looked disdainful, and at the same time reminded, "I advise you to back off now, don’t provoke me!" Lie Tiangyang shouted fiercely, his face as gloomy as water, holding back the impulse to make a move. "What’s going on here!" Suddenly, an elderly voice resounded loudly from the side. Everyone turned their heads, looking towards the source of the voice. Seeing a white-haired elder in a moon-white robe approaching, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically. As the elder walked forward, many present bowed respectfully, with awe and fear on their faces. Only Lin Tian stood there calmly. "Second Master, he’s called Huang Jiannsheng, an elder of Sword Saint Mountain’s Wenxin Valley, please don’t be impulsive anymore!" Yun Qingwan tugged on Lin Tian’s sleeve, softly reminding him. Previously, Lin Tian, in anger for her, acted; she was quite moved and secretly resolved to work harder on her cultivation in the future. "What just happened?" Huang Jiannsheng frowned, glancing around at the people, and finally asked Lie Tiangyang. "Elder Huang, there is an arrogant brat here..." Lie Tiangyang angrily pointed at Lin Tian and recounted the events to Huang Jiannsheng. After a while, upon hearing Lie Tiangyang’s words, Huang Jiannsheng frowned deeply, with a sullen face, glanced at Ye Lan and the others. This made Ye Lan and Yun Qinghe feel cold all over, hastily lowering their heads. "Master Ye, who is he?" At this moment, Huang Jiannsheng directly questioned Ye Lan. Ye Lan hurried to bow, speaking respectfully, with a hint of plea in his tone: "Elder Huang, he is a friend of mine, so he accompanied us. Earlier he acted impulsively, I hope Elder Huang can be lenient." "Hehe, Master Ye, are you thinking the old man is blind and muddled, trying to fool me?" Huang Jiannsheng suddenly sneered, coldly scolding Ye Lan. Upon hearing this, Ye Lan was stunned, and the other members of the Tianlan Sect were also taken aback. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net "Elder Huang, what is the meaning of this?" Ye Lan was frightened, urgently inquiring. Huang Jiannsheng is an elder from Wenxin Valley of Sword Saint Mountain, his status and rank are extremely noble in comparison to them. Suddenly being accused of deceiving, Ye Lan couldn’t bear it! "Hmph, are you still playing dumb with me?" Huang Jiannsheng coldly rebuked, "This lad clearly has no cultivation, merely a mortal, and if you bring him, that’s one thing. But being so impertinent as to strike people, how do you explain that?" After speaking, without waiting for Ye Lan, who was again dumbfounded, to explain, he turned to Lin Tian and said, "Looking at your natural strength and good physique! I’ll remember this incident. If when we get upstairs, your aptitude is good, I, the old man, will let it go! Otherwise, you will surely suffer, and you’ll never win over the crowd!"
