Five minutes passed.
Seeing no response, Ye Qingtian and Ye Binglan straightened up, their hope dwindling. It was foolish to think that someone as mysterious and powerful as Su Changsheng would notice them. The siblings had been grasping at straws.
"Time's up!" Ye Qingtian said coldly.
Lin Zixuan's beautiful eyes flashed with coldness. "Ye Qingtian, I suggest you return to the imperial capital. Linzhou is not a place for you to run wild."
Before Ye Qingtian could respond, Ye Binglan spoke up, "Lin Zixuan, my brother has always indulged you. He was worried about hurting your pride, so he let me back down every time."
"You might be the proud daughter of heaven to others, but to me, Ye Binglan, you're nothing."
"Brother, I'll teach Lin Zixuan a lesson today, make her face reality. If she keeps siding with an abandoned son of the Tianhai Su family, why should we keep holding back?"
Ye Qingtian stayed silent. Letting Lin Zixuan face some frustration might be beneficial.
Seeing this, a smile played on Ye Binglan's lips as her aura, belonging to the Late Stage of Creation, flared up.
Lin Zixuan stepped forward, her tone firm. "Let me handle this."
Horn remained quiet, simply observing. Mr. Wei, Mr. Qiao, and the others stood alert beside him.
Ye Binglan's gaze turned icy, her aura intensifying. "Lin Zixuan, to be honest, you're not worthy of my brother. If you're so concerned about this abandoned son of the Tianhai Su family, I'll make him kneel before my brother after I defeat you. None of you here can stop me."
"If the strong men of the Lin family dare to interfere, your Lin family will be destroyed!"
Lin Zixuan's eyes blazed with anger. Horn was her man, and she would never allow anyone to insult him.
"Ye Binglan, you don't have that kind of power!"
"You'll be the one apologizing. I'll make sure you kneel before Horn."
Lin Zixuan's aura exploded. Her hair fluttered as the energy of the Early Stage of Creation filled the air.
Both Ye Qingtian and Ye Binglan were stunned. A few months ago, according to official reports, Lin Zixuan was only in the Late Stage of the Royal Air Realm. How had she advanced to the Early Stage of Creation?
However, the Ye siblings were not easily shaken. They quickly regained their composure.
"Lin Zixuan, is this where your confidence comes from? Whether you're in the Late Stage of the Sky Control Realm or the Early Stage of the Creation Realm, it makes no difference to me!"
"To defeat you, I only need one move. I won't even use combat skills."
Ye Binglan's confidence grew as her aura intensified. She was certain that Lin Zixuan, with her lower cultivation level, stood no chance.
Jiang Wan, standing nearby, smirked, knowing that Lin Zixuan's storage ring could amplify her attack power tenfold. Ye Binglan was about to face a harsh reality.
Lin Zixuan's voice was cold and arrogant. "Enough talk! We'll see who wins."
She touched the storage ring on her finger and glanced at Ye Binglan.
Lin Zixuan didn't bother with combat skills either. She simply unleashed a full-force palm strike, bolstered by the storage ring.
Ye Binglan, confident at first, intended to counter with her left palm. However, the moment Lin Zixuan's terrifying power surged towards her, Ye Qingtian's expectation of Lin Zixuan's collapse was shattered.
Before the palm even landed, the ground around Ye Binglan began to crack and sink.
"Binglan, move away!" Ye Qingtian roared, rushing forward to assist. How could Lin Zixuan, in the Early Stage of Creation, possess such overwhelming power? It defied logic!
Caught in the destructive force of Lin Zixuan's attack, Ye Binglan found herself immobilized, sweat beading on her forehead, fear flickering in her eyes.
"I won't lose to you. I, Ye Binglan, will not lose."
She clapped both palms together. "Earth Spirit Shield!"
A wall of earth rose before her, its defensive power immense.
Mr. Wei couldn't help but comment, "That's the Rank Four combat skill, Earth Spirit Shield, renowned in the Imperial Capital Immortal Martial Academy!"
Mr. Qiao and the others watched Lin Zixuan intently. Meanwhile, Horn mused to himself, "Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"
In the next moment, Lin Zixuan's palm struck the Earth Spirit Shield with a resounding "bang." The shield, supposedly impenetrable, shattered instantly.
Ye Binglan, standing behind it, coughed up blood as she was sent flying.
A few seconds later, she landed, her face pale, blood trickling from the corners of her mouth.
Lin Zixuan approached her, pressing a foot on Ye Binglan. "It's time to apologize. Go kneel before Horn and apologize now!"
With Ye Binglan seriously injured and unable to fight back, despair washed over her. How had Lin Zixuan, an Early Stage Creation Realm monk, defeated her? She couldn't accept it.
Lin Zixuan's voice cut through her thoughts. "Didn't you hear me?"
The pressure on Ye Binglan's chest increased, and she heard the faint cracking of bones.
"You expect me to kneel and apologize to an abandoned son of the Tianhai Su family? Lin Zixuan, are you out of your mind?" Ye Binglan gritted her teeth.
Ye Qingtian snapped, "Zixuan, why must you push things this far?"
Lin Zixuan remained firm. "If she lost, she must kneel and apologize to Horn."
Ye Qingtian hesitated, not daring to provoke Lin Zixuan further, fearing for his sister's safety.
"This is all your fault. Things keep escalating because of you. Damn you!" Ye Qingtian suddenly appeared in front of Horn, his aura oppressive. His cultivation had nearly reached the Heavenly Star Realm.
Just one more step, and he would become a formidable force.
"Zixuan, let my sister go, or I'll kill this bastard right here." Ye Qingtian raised his hand, his palm aimed at Horn.
Mr. Wei and the others smirked, knowing Horn was already a strong man in the Early Stage of the Heavenly Star Realm. Ye Qingtian didn't stand a chance.
Lin Zixuan shook her head, sighing. "Ye Qingtian, you and your sister are courting death."
"Now, both of you kneel and apologize to Horn. Kowtow a hundred times, and maybe you'll survive. Otherwise, Linzhou will be your grave!"
