Six Realms Immortal Emperor

"snort!"

Xu Jingtian snorted coldly, a sneer appearing on his lips. Without turning his head, he unleashed the Illusionary Wave Movement Technique, delivering a series of backward kicks.

"what!"

The attacker was none other than Dongfang Sifeng, who was unwilling to accept defeat. He had already made up his mind to unleash a powerful sweeping kick when Xu Jingtian was not paying attention. He refused to believe that a sweeping kick with the force of 300 jin could break Xu Jingtian's ribs.

To his surprise, Xu Jingtian seemed to have foreseen the future, not only neutralizing his sweeping kick with a single kick, but also using the remaining force to spin him halfway around.

What puzzled Dongfang Sifeng even more was that his body suddenly flew up, like a balloon hitting a wall and being bounced away.

Moreover, he had an extra foot on his buttocks, a foot wearing tattered straw sandals.

"what!"

Dongfang Sifeng collapsed off the stage with a scream!

Even the elders on the stage were quite surprised. They had thought Dongfang Sifeng would succeed in his sneak attack, but it turned out to be a completely different story. It seems that Xu Jingtian's strength is truly extraordinary and somewhat mysterious.

Xu Jingtian ignored all the surprised looks. He clasped his hands together, bowed to the surroundings, and said, "Thank you for your kind offer!" Everything was so natural, it didn't seem like he was faking it.

He wouldn't fall for it. He'd known Dongfang Sifeng was skilled at sneak attacks since their fight, and had been constantly on guard. Just now, he'd deliberately turned around to test Dongfang Sifeng; he hadn't expected Dongfang Sifeng to actually launch a sneak attack.

Xu Jingtian, of course, showed no mercy and kicked Dongfang Sifeng twice, blatantly knocking him off the stage!

Xu Jingtian's victory over Dongfang Sifeng undoubtedly made him the biggest dark horse.

The entire Dongfang Prefecture was in an uproar. Xu Jingtian, a lowly horse breeder in Dongfang Prefecture, had actually made it into the top three!

But in this world where strength reigns supreme, Xu Jingtian's mastery of the third level of physical cultivation had made him an absolute powerhouse in their eyes. No one doubted Xu Jingtian's martial prowess anymore; on the contrary, more servants gazed at him with eager admiration.

Xu Jingtian has become their role model. Who says you're born a slave? Even a slave can become a martial arts master. Besides, Xu Jingtian is going to a cultivation sect. Who knows, with his cultivation increasing, he might become a powerful figure like Dongfang Siyu.

May you achieve great success and bring honor to your ancestors!

For a time, Xu Jingtian became the focus of discussion both on and off the stage, and his reputation soared, seemingly overshadowing the top two, Dongfang Sile and Dongfang Sixing.

"Since you're here, make the best of it. Why are you in such a hurry to leave, brother?"

Just then, a voice as ethereal as smoke and clouds suddenly rang out, enveloping the entire Eastern Prefecture.

You can only hear their voice, but you can't see them!

"Yu'er!" Dongfang Shanzhan was startled. He was very familiar with this voice; he was the only one in the entire mansion who could recognize it.

Upon hearing Dongfang Siyu's appearance, everyone realized that despite the long battle on the stage, this formidable figure from the Dongfang family, now an inner disciple of the Brahma Sect, had yet to show himself. So, they all craned their necks, eager to catch a glimpse of her ethereal beauty.

In a flash, a person appeared on the stage. This person was dressed in gray, with a burly build, and was dressed in a Taoist robe, indicating that he was a cultivator.

"Isn't this the guy who stayed overnight yesterday? What's he doing here on the stage all of a sudden?" The servant, Qian Jingyi, immediately recognized him, thinking, "Could this guy also be going to fight?" Even he could tell that this person was exceptionally skilled; he was definitely a master.

If Dongfang Siyu hadn't pointed it out, even highly skilled martial artists like Dongfang Shanzhan and the elders wouldn't have noticed that someone had infiltrated the mansion.

"Who dares to cause trouble at the Dongfang residence!" Dongfang Shanzhan, having seen much of the world, remained calm in the face of danger and did not take this expert seriously.

But those who come with ill intentions don't come with good intentions. Since this person sneaked into the Dongfang residence, he must have some unspeakable secret. Judging from his skills, his martial arts level is unknown, perhaps even several levels higher than theirs.

The man in gray did not answer, but looked towards the eastern mansion, seemingly observing the movements there. He had been extremely careful in hiding, but unexpectedly, his whereabouts were still exposed.

Xu Jingtian on the stage also saw the man in gray, and was even more astonished. He was shocked and wondered why the man had come.

"You've got quite the airs, sir! Guards! Bring out your weapons!" Dongfang Shanzhan was furious. The Dongfang family was not to be trifled with; they were a renowned family for miles around, and who would dare cause trouble at their residence!

Since this newcomer relies on force, let him see the might of the Dongfang family. Dongfang Shanzhan waved his right hand, and in an instant, the Dongfang family's guards swarmed forward, surrounding the man.

This moment revealed the extraordinary strength of the Eastern Prefecture. Hundreds of people were not only well-trained, but each was also armed with heavy weapons, including long spears, short swords, and even powerful bows and halberds. They surrounded the ten-zhang-square arena in layers, making it impossible to move.

Xu Jingtian was secretly astonished; he had never seen anything like this before. He wondered if the man in gray could break through the encirclement.

The man in gray seemed oblivious to the menacing Dongfang family guards before him, his gaze drifting to Xu Jingtian, who gave him a slight smile. He then turned unhurriedly, bowed slightly towards a certain spot within the mansion, and said, "Hehe, I was merely passing through your esteemed place. Hearing of the bustling activity here, I couldn't resist taking a look. I didn't mean to disturb you, young lady."

"Is that so!" A cold snort came from deep within the Dongfang residence. It seemed extremely far away, yet the voice was exceptionally clear. Judging from the voice, Dongfang Siyu, who had not yet shown herself, seemed to harbor a deep prejudice against this person.

"You followed me all the way from the foot of Zongmen Mountain to Guangting Fortress, were you just passing through?" Dongfang Siyu's ethereal voice continued to ask.

Everyone then realized why Dongfang Siyu had been so rude to this person. It turned out that this person had followed the young lady all the way to the Dongfang residence, and it seemed that he had come with ill intentions.

"Indeed!" The man in gray remained expressionless and said solemnly, "I, Jin, have traveled a long way and am only stopping here for a short rest. Since you have such a deep misunderstanding about me, I will leave immediately!"

Xu Jingtian thought to himself, "This gray-clad man clearly missed his target while following someone else, yet he speaks so righteously. He's really shameless."

"Hmph! You think you can just come and go as you please in the Eastern Mansion?" Dongfang Shanzhan roared angrily, "Take him down!" He was confident that no matter how high your martial arts level was, with hundreds of powerful bows and crossbows aimed at you, you wouldn't be able to escape even if you had wings!

"Absolutely not!" came Dongfang Siyu's shout from afar, but it was too late.

The man in gray was slightly taken aback, then his eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light, and his clothes moved without wind, making a rustling sound!

He lunged forward, easily closing the distance of several feet between himself and the leading Dongfang family guards, and charged straight into the crowd, giving them no chance to react.

There were a series of loud bangs as weapons snapped, followed by screams of agony. Wherever the gray-clad man went, men and horses fell, everyone either with broken bones or snapped at the waist.

Some people were even knocked away by him, their internal organs ruptured, and they died on the spot.

"Seven levels of physical body?"

Dongfang Shanzhan was stunned. His martial arts had reached the seventh level of the Refining Spirit Realm. His muscles and bones were exceptionally strong. With every move he made, he had the strength of a thousand catties. He was invincible and ordinary weapons could not get close to him.

In the blink of an eye, the seemingly unbreakable encirclement was smashed to pieces by the force of the gray-clad man's charge.

Upon hearing Dongfang Shanzhan's words, the gray-clad man said without turning his head, "Seventh level of physical body? That's what you worldly people call it!" He didn't slow down, and dashed out of the mansion in a flash. His movements were extremely fast, leaving only a gray shadow.

Just then, a strange noise came from the top of the wall, and a red shadow drifted by, lightly touching the top of the wall with one foot. The ethereal figure traversed several feet of space, chasing after the gray-clad man.

Who else could it be but Dongfang Siyu!

Xu Jingtian suddenly looked up, only to catch a fleeting glimpse of her faint silhouette. He couldn't help but marvel at how profound Dongfang Siyu's cultivation had become; no wonder the gray-robed man had fled.

"Chase him!" Dongfang Shanzhan was furious. How dare he provoke him! If he caught him, he would skin him alive.

Watching the two figures depart one after the other, Xu Jingtian sighed inwardly. He both hoped that Dongfang Siyu could catch up with the man in gray, and that the man in gray could escape safely without any danger to his life.

After all, the fact that he was able to stand on the arena and defeat the formidable Dongfang Sifeng was largely due to the gray-clad man's kindness. The events of yesterday, as if a dream, remained vividly etched in Xu Jingtian's mind.

"Sigh!" Thinking of this, Xu Jingtian couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The gray-clad man suddenly appeared on the arena. It turned out that he had been spying on their martial arts match inside the mansion, but Dongfang Siyu had seen through his disguise.

However, the man in gray seemed extremely wary of Dongfang Siyu, and fled before she could even appear.

Dongfang Siyu was likely stronger, and Xu Jingtian felt a little uneasy as she went to chase after the man in gray, since his relationship with the man in gray was not simple.

From the moment Dongfang Shanzhan ordered the encirclement of the gray-clad man, to the man forcibly breaking through the encirclement, and then to Dongfang Siyu chasing after him, the entire process took only the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Everything happened so suddenly that everyone on and off the stage was stunned. Only the Dongfang family guards, who were lying on the ground crying out in pain, could tell that a fierce battle had just taken place.

Dongfang Shanzhan's face was ashen, and he roared, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and save them!"

The rest of the people then scrambled to their feet, carrying people, searching for doctors, and were in a complete panic.

Xu Jingtian was thus extricated from the predicament. No one questioned his martial arts background anymore, nor did anyone care how he achieved third place.
