Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character

Chapter 170: Establishing Authority

A cold shout from the man in gold robes, Xia Huang, echoed through the air and landed in the ears of Mo Ling and the others. Sensing the particularly fierce aura of the monster horde to the northwest, it was clear to everyone that Xia Huang intended to use the beast horde to dispose of them.

"You really think we're your subordinates, Xia Huang?" Du Yun said coldly.

"Insolent!" Xia Huang's gaze hardened as he barked, "In this gathering place, the Sacred Light Dynasty is in control! Defy us, and you'll be tossed into the beast horde, to be ripped apart by countless fangs!"

"What a pompous fool," Man Shan fumed, his anger rising with Xia Huang's tone.

Mo Ling, looking tense, whispered to Lin Langtian, "Captain, a few days ago, while gathering intel with Du Yun and Man Shan, we had a small scuffle with this Xia Huang. He's been looking for trouble ever since."

Hearing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes. This Xia Huang, dressed in his golden robe, clearly looked down on them, treating the Great Flame Dynasty like some trivial low-rank dynasty.

"Langtian, shall I handle him?" Lin Dong offered.

But Lin Langtian shook his head slightly. "No need. We came here with the intention of staying low-key, but if we allow ourselves to be walked over, it'll only invite more trouble."

With that, Lin Langtian strode forward, his calm yet resolute voice making the others tense in anticipation. He was finally stepping up.

"It seems the Ancient Battleground isn't short on loud-mouthed nobodies." Lin Langtian's gaze fixed on Xia Huang, his face composed.

"Did you just call me a nobody?" Xia Huang's face instantly twisted with anger. He glared down at Lin Langtian, his voice turning cold and sharp. "You backwater bumpkins have gotten arrogant, it seems. Even low-rank dynasty dogs dare to challenge the Sacred Light Dynasty?"

He sneered, "I'm sick of looking at you. Today, I'll finish you off and hang your bodies on the city walls. That way, others will know not to disrespect the Sacred Light Dynasty!"

"Seize them!" Xia Huang's harsh order echoed, and a dozen powerful figures from behind him stepped forward, their eyes gleaming with malice. Energy radiated around them as they formed a tight circle, surrounding Lin Langtian and his team.

"The Great Flame Dynasty people are in for it now," muttered some of the onlookers from other dynasties. While they admired the Great Flame Dynasty's courage to stand up to the Sacred Light Dynasty, they also pitied their grim situation.

But just as the Sacred Light warriors launched their assault, Lin Langtian calmly released a wave of powerful energy. In the blink of an eye, a force surged out from him, crashing into the encircling warriors from the Sacred Light Dynasty.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled violently as Lin Langtian's energy tore through his opponents. The dozen warriors who'd closed in on him were torn to shreds, their remains dissipating into blood mist that rose into the air.

A shocked silence fell. Those who witnessed the scene stared at the calm, blue-robed youth from the Great Flame Dynasty, their expressions a mixture of awe and disbelief.

In a single move, he had annihilated over a dozen powerful warriors. This wasn't mere strength—it was the power of a half-step Nirvana Realm master.

On feeling Lin Langtian's immense energy, even the ferocious beast horde approaching from the wilderness hesitated. The beasts, unlike ordinary animals, possessed a degree of intelligence. Those who reached the Nirvana Realm could even assume human form. Sensing the intimidating aura radiating from the city, the horde halted, then began to retreat, realizing there was a formidable presence here they couldn't afford to provoke.

Seeing the horde ebb away like a receding tide, everyone in the city sighed in relief. Then, they turned to Lin Langtian, their gazes filled with awe and astonishment.

"He's… half-step Nirvana!" Xia Huang stammered, his face going pale as he understood Lin Langtian's strength and saw the retreating horde. The man he'd so confidently dismissed as a low-rank warrior had defeated his fighters and frightened off the beasts. Cold sweat trickled down his face as he approached Lin Langtian, his tone humble. "Sir, I didn't know who you were. Forgive me for my disrespect."

At that moment, another figure shot out from the city depths—a man in blue robes whose strength had reached the peak of the Creation Realm. He was Li Sheng, the leader of the Sacred Light Dynasty's forces in the city, and he looked at Lin Langtian with shock, realizing there was a half-step Nirvana Realm warrior among the Great Flame Dynasty team.

But before Li Sheng could speak, Lin Langtian's expression darkened, and he unleashed a devastating attack, aiming a giant energy palm at Li Sheng and his men. The ground shook violently as the blow landed.

Seeing Lin Langtian make a move without hesitation, Li Sheng and his men quickly gathered their energy, forming a protective shield in an attempt to fend off his assault.

"Sir, our Sacred Light Dynasty also has half-step Nirvana warriors," Li Sheng blurted out in desperation. "We should join forces and fight side-by-side, with our dynasties allied in peace."

But his words only earned him a cold snort. In the next moment, Li Sheng's defenses crumbled under the powerful strike, and with a loud explosion, he and his seven followers were obliterated, leaving not even a trace.

The battlefield grew eerily silent. Those present stared in horror at the scattered remains of the Sacred Light warriors, their bodies trembling as they realized that Lin Langtian, with a single, devastating attack, had eliminated one of their leaders and his team of elite warriors without a second thought.
