Chapter 264: Blades Drawn, Fury Ignited You're Gonna Kill Me, Damn It!
At this moment, Su Qian could no longer hold back.
With a wave of his hand, the elders who had already positioned themselves unleashed their powerful Dou Qi.
Instantly
A transparent energy barrier enveloped the entire plaza.
Su Qian pointed at Wu Tian and roared in anger:
"You! Wu Tian! A despicable and shameless man! You a dignified Dou Zong lowered yourself to infiltrate my Jia Nan Academy just to steal the Fallen Heart Flame! Not only that, but you also destroyed the Sky Burning Qi Tower! How could we possibly forgive you?"
"All elders, prepare the formation!"
The transparent barrier sealed the entire area, causing all eyes to focus on Su Qian.
For a moment
He became the absolute center of attention.
But then
A clear and carefree voice rang out:
"Haha! Long time no see, Grand Elder! It seems you've grown even stronger with age!"
In an instant
Su Qian went from the most dominant figure in the scene…
To just an old man being teased.
His expression darkened.
Damn it!
He was indeed old, but being called "strong with age" by another Dou Zong still pissed him off.
And more importantly
This little brat in front of him looked like a teenager!
Bullshit!
There was no way he believed Wu Tian was actually young!
There were barely any Dou Zong experts in the entire continent, let alone one that looked this young!
Even Xun'er who came from an ancient clan hadn't reached this level yet.
So how the hell did this kid manage it?!
No, Wu Tian was definitely an old monster!
Yet here he was, pretending to be some youthful genius, teasing Su Qian like he was an elderly relic!
Su Qian was furious.
Meanwhile
Wu Tian waved his sleeve casually.
Behind him
The massive pillar of molten lava, which had been surging toward the sky, suddenly collapsed back into the Sky Burning Qi Tower.
Everyone gasped.
They had been so focused on the scene before them that they had completely forgotten about that towering lava column.
And yet
Wu Tian had casually dismissed it.
Just a simple gesture, and he controlled a force that could have devastated everything.
This
This was the presence of a true powerhouse!
For the students of the Inner Academy
This level of power was what they had always dreamed of achieving.
And now
That dream had become a reality, embodied in a man who was once one of them.
Wu Tian was their senior.
Their idol.
Once they left the academy, they could brag about this for a lifetime!
With the lava dealt with, Wu Tian tapped his foot lightly against the ground.
His figure vanished instantly
Reappearing high above, directly above the Sky Burning Qi Tower.
The movement was so fast and ghostly that Han Feng couldn't help but shake his head in frustration.
"Damn it… The ability to walk through the air freely… That's the power of a Dou Zong…"
Though Han Feng had already reached peak Dou Huang, he was still one step away from Dou Zong.
And that one step…
Might take him who knows how many years to cross.
Just like how Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing had delayed their breakthroughs for years just to build a stronger foundation.
For Han Feng
It would be even harder.
Seeing Wu Tian hovering over the tower, Su Qian's brows furrowed.
What is he trying to do now?!
Without hesitation, Su Qian erupted with battle qi and instantly appeared before Wu Tian.
"Are you planning to completely destroy my Jia Nan Academy?!"
Su Qian glared at him.
However
He wasn't the only one who appeared.
Medusa Wu Tian's first wife had also followed along.
After all
Wu Tian was her husband.
And as the saying went
A husband leads, a wife follows.
Though in their case, it could also be said that a wife leads, and a husband follows.
Due to the unique bond between them, they couldn't be too far apart.
So the moment Wu Tian moved
Medusa's beautiful eyes flashed, and she instantly followed after him.
Wu Tian smiled bitterly.
He had grown too used to having Medusa as a small snake wrapped around his arm.
Just now
He had completely forgotten about their connection.
Thank god his wife had noticed
Otherwise, he would have embarrassed himself terribly.
Meanwhile
Su Qian's face twitched violently.
Are you two really that in love?!
You just got up here, and now you're holding hands again?!
You're showing off because I don't have a wife, aren't you?!
Back in my day
I was a total playboy…
…Ahem! Forget that!
This is unacceptable!
At that moment
Hu Gan and the other academy elders joined Su Qian, standing behind him in midair.
On the other side
Han Feng and the Black Corner Region's Dou Huangs did the same, standing behind Wu Tian.
Two sides.
A clash of overwhelming power.
Even though no one had released their battle qi yet
The sheer pressure from their presence alone was enough to make the students below tremble in fear.
This… This was what true power looked like!
Wu Tian's eyes gleamed, his lips curling into a playful smirk.
"Grand Elder, no matter what I'm still a student of Jia Nan Academy. Is this how you treat your alumni?"
Su Qian's face twitched violently again.
This little shit still has the nerve to call himself a student?!
Before Su Qian could explode, however
Hu Gan beat him to it.
The academy head pointed at Wu Tian, his face red with fury.
"YOU LITTLE BRAT!!!"
"I don't care if you're some 'Guardian Elder' or a Dou Zong!"
"You scammed my granddaughter!"
"Today, I'm going to BEAT YOUR ASS!"
As he roared
His peak Dou Huang aura exploded, and a massive golden battle qi attack shot toward Wu Tian.
However
Before it could even reach him…
Medusa simply waved her delicate hand.
The attack instantly shattered.
Her icy gaze locked onto Hu Gan.
For a moment
Hu Gan felt like he was being stared down by a savage magical beast.
His back turned ice cold.
He had no doubt
If Medusa attacked him seriously, he would die instantly.
At that moment
A desperate cry echoed from below.
"GRANDPA, STOP!"
It was Hu Jia.
"Grandpa, don't be mad! I was the one who threw myself at my husband! This has nothing to do with him!"
Hu Jia's face was flushed red, but her voice was firm.
"You already know what I used to be like… He's the only man I've ever truly liked!"
Hu Gan's brain short circuited.
His mind went completely blank.
"L Liked…?"
His finger trembled as he pointed at Hu Jia, his mouth twitching.
Then
His face twisted in agony, and he clutched his chest dramatically.
"GOOD… GOOD!"
"YOU'VE DONE WELL!"
"JUST GO AHEAD AND KILL YOUR POOR OLD GRANDPA!"
