Free Web NovelChapter 102: Chapter 96: You Craved a Defeat, I Granted Your Wish
The entire younger generation of the Wang Clan was in an uproar.
Countless members were furious.
The young disciples simply couldn’t believe it.
’How could this be tolerated?’
Someone had come to challenge them right at their doorstep.
He had even trampled Wang Jinglan underfoot, forcing her to kneel in submission and utter such humiliating words.
It was enough to drive them mad.
"We must ask Cousin Beicang to come out of seclusion!"
"Yes, we have to let Cousin Beicang teach him a lesson personally!"
"He’s destined to pay the price for looking down on our Wang Clan!"
"Let’s go together! We’ll ask Cousin Beicang!"
Countless young Wang Clan members, their eyes red with anger, formed a group and rushed toward a certain area in the back mountains.
Atop the various pavilions.
The many elders were all surprisingly silent.
Their gazes were fixed on the anger of the numerous young clan members.
"Beicang has been in seclusion. Will he be disturbed by this sudden commotion?"
The vice-patriarch of the Wang Clan, Wang Rufeng, who was dressed in a purple robe, said with a frown.
"He won’t be."
Wang Qinglian’s voice was cold as she said, "He has already come out of seclusion."
"He’s already out?"
Wang Rufeng looked at Wang Qinglian with suspicion.
"That’s right."
Wang Qinglian nodded coolly.
"Beicang has been in seclusion for over half a year. It seems he’s already broken through to the Fifth Layer of Gang Energy... Do you think this Chen Xuan can be Beicang’s opponent?"
The Wang Clan Patriarch, Wang Zhengxuan, asked.
"Don’t worry. I’ve tested Chen Xuan’s strength. He is more than enough."
Wang Qinglian said coolly.
"’More than enough?’"
Wang Rufeng’s expression changed in shock. He looked at Wang Qinglian and said, "Where did you find this monster? His talent is on par with yours back in the day, isn’t it?"
One could even say he faintly surpassed Wang Qinglian.
Wang Qinglian pressed her lips together, not answering his first question. Instead, she continued, "He’s probably a little weaker than me."
"Incredible, truly incredible. If Beicang loses, I wonder how big of a blow it will be to his mentality."
Wang Rufeng’s expression shifted.
Wang Beicang!
The prodigy of the younger generation!
He had never participated in the outside world’s Wind and Cloud List rankings. At only thirty-two years old, he was at the Fifth Layer of Gang Energy!
Most importantly...
Wang Beicang had an incredible combat record!
While at the Fourth Layer of Gang Energy, he had defeated several masters at the Fifth Layer! freёweɓnovel.com
Now that he was at the Fifth Layer, perhaps even those at the Sixth Layer couldn’t defeat him!
Such talent was only a notch below Wang Qinglian’s.
But it was precisely because of this that he developed an even more arrogant disposition.
The entire Wang Clan, from top to bottom, could be said to be immersed in their past glory.
If not for the impending crisis, they would not have chosen to resort to such extreme measures.
「In the back mountains.」
Before a spacious cave.
Countless members of the Wang Clan’s younger generation stood here respectfully, not daring to even breathe too loudly, as they quietly awaited Wang Beicang’s response.
Inside the mountain’s depths.
A young expert had already gone inside and informed Wang Beicang of what had just happened, embellishing the story.
He had thought that Wang Beicang would fly into a rage after hearing the news.
But he never expected that Wang Beicang would act as if nothing had happened, remaining calm and composed as he sat quietly.
On the surface, there was no trace of anger.
Nor was there any sign that he intended to act.
"Cousin Beicang, someone has bullied us right at our doorstep, even ruthlessly stomping on Cousin Jinglan and humiliating her! How can you still be unmoved?"
This handsome talent of the Wang Clan, Wang Canghai, couldn’t help but speak up.
"Why should I be angry?"
Wang Beicang’s voice was calm and steady as he said, "I would never get angry and crush an ant just because it bit me. An ant, in the end, is just an ant. No matter how desperately it tries to prove itself, it’s completely useless."
"But... this person is too arrogant! He doesn’t respect our Wang Clan at all..."
Wang Canghai said again.
"You don’t understand. Your realm is too low."
Wang Beicang sighed lightly, a sense of boredom in his voice. "Look across the entirety of Canglan Province. Who can possibly be my opponent? I’ve encountered enemies even more arrogant than this before. But so what? They were still suppressed and pinned to the ground in a few moves. After that, I realized that the people of Canglan Province and I are not on the same starting line."
"No, this person is truly terrifying..."
Wang Canghai said hurriedly.
"Every one of my past enemies was terrifying!"
Wang Beicang’s tone was indifferent. "I’ve already lost interest in such low-level masters. My only goal now is the Human List. Only by getting on the Human List can I prove myself!"
"The Human List?"
Wang Canghai’s expression changed in shock.
One of the most powerful ranking lists in the Great Xia Dynasty’s forty-eight provinces.
It listed all the masters under the age of thirty-five. There were only 100 spots in total, averaging two per province...
And currently, Canglan Province didn’t have a single one!
"Cousin Beicang, you should still defeat this Chen Xuan first before talking about anything else."
Wang Canghai pleaded desperately.
"There’s no need to persuade me. An ant cannot arouse my interest."
Wang Beicang’s expression was calm as he closed his eyes. "Go. All of you, leave!" fгeewebnovёl.com
"But..."
Wang Canghai’s expression shifted, wanting to persuade him further.
But Wang Beicang said no more. Instead, a layer of invisible Gang Qi pushed out toward Wang Canghai, like a formless giant hand, shoving him all the way out of the cave.
"How did it go? Is Cousin Beicang coming out?"
"Yeah, what did Cousin Beicang say?"
"Tell us, quickly!"
The crowd’s eyes lit up as they quickly and eagerly asked.
Wang Canghai’s expression was grim. He slowly shook his head and said, "Cousin Beicang is unwilling to act."
"What? Could it be that even Cousin Beicang isn’t confident he can defeat this Chen Xuan?"
Wang Shu’s face was filled with shock.
’That’s too terrifying!’
"No."
Wang Canghai gave a bitter smile. "Cousin Beicang said... he’s not interested in such an opponent..."
