Chapter 1250: Arrogant and Overbearing!
"Get out! All you natives in there, come out for this Young Master!"
The man in Qingyi spoke, his cultivation base, comparable to the Early Stage of the Dragon Emperor Realm, emitted at this moment, merging into his voice, turning it into a sound wave that spread very far.
As he shouted, except for the young woman, the others' expressions changed. A beautiful woman with a voluptuous figure frowned and said, "Donghua Leng, shut your mouth. If you attract those Extraterritorial Demons' attention, I'll kill you first!"
"Afraid of what? Haven't you seen that these Extraterritorial Demons are only surrounding that empty land and not paying attention to us?" Donghua Leng sneered.
Indeed, those Extraterritorial Demons did not seem to hear anything, and even with Donghua Leng's loud voice, they did not pay attention.
Hearing this, the beautiful woman sighed in relief and said, "Even so, you shouldn't speak to them that way. The term 'native' is too offensive. They were born and grew here, and this is their planet. Since we've come here, we should respect them and not make such arrogant statements."
"Phantom Spirit, can you even control me?"
Donghua Leng frowned, displeased, "Yes, your cultivation base is stronger than mine, but you are from Thorn Palace, not Sect of the Heavenly River. Do you need to tell me how to speak?"
Phantom Spirit's expression turned colder: "Donghua Leng, don't forget how Predecessor Luoyang warned you before coming here, to keep a low profile. Even if you're talented, you should not be arrogant and forget your place."
"You're right; I, Donghua Leng, am indeed talented. Otherwise, how could I become a direct disciple of a sect master with just a mere cultivation base? Don't you agree?" Donghua Leng sneered.
"You!"
"Enough!"
Phantom Spirit still wanted to speak, but a man next to Donghua Leng interrupted: "Donghua Leng, speak less, and as for you, Phantom Spirit... you really have no business with the affairs of Sect of the Heavenly River."
"Of course, it's none of my business, and I never intended to intervene."
Phantom Spirit said angrily, "But Wu Xinghui, Donghua Leng is from your Sect of the Heavenly River. As his senior brother, you should remind him more often. Otherwise, if he makes a wrong move, it would tarnish his genius status, wouldn't it?"
Wu Xinghui ignored Phantom Spirit, and Donghua Leng also snorted coldly, not continuing to argue with Phantom Spirit.
However, he clearly did not intend to give up shouting at those 'natives' in the clearing. Turning his head, he loudly said again: "Didn't you hear this Young Master's words? Immediately come out, use your methods to open a path through this group of Extraterritorial Demons. If you're late, should this Young Master enter by himself, don't blame me for being merciless!"
"Senior Brother Donghua is right!"
The woman echoed, "A mere group of natives, we have never regarded them. It is only because the Extraterritorial Demons are blocking that there is a delay. Otherwise, daring to ignore our words like this, you would have long been obliterated!"
Listening to their words, Phantom Spirit frowned deeply, as did dozens of others sharing the same expression.
Excluding them, the rest stood with their hands behind their backs, straight and proud, heads held high with arrogance on their faces.
"A bunch of fools!" Phantom Spirit thought silently.
...
At the same time, within the Barren Land.
Disciples from various grand powers were battling Extraterritorial Demons outside.
Despite some losses, they gained a large number of Blood Crystals, and through this brutal experience, the disciples began to experience significant improvements.
Those who survived were either highly cultivated or reacted quickly, incomparable to others.
They heard the shouting from Donghua Leng and the woman outside, turned their heads, exchanged glances, and frowned deeply.
The word 'natives' was heard clearly, and the disdain, contempt, and sarcasm in their words were unapologetically obvious.
"Who are these people?"
"Do you even need to ask? Calling us natives, they're obviously not from Dragon Martial Continent. They must be those geniuses descended from the starry sky."
"Geniuses? Is this what so-called geniuses are like? Are all geniuses so arrogant?"
"Of course, for example, Su Zun, hahaha..."
"Get lost! How can you compare? You know very well what kind of person Su Zun is, say that again and don't blame us for challenging you in Phoenix Sect."
"Just kidding, you see, you're so petty, can't even take a joke."
"Jokes aside, these guys really are being a bit too conceited!"
"Right, they're indeed conceited! Clearly wanting us to help them enter the Barren Land, yet they're acting so high and mighty, as if we are begging them."
"What should we do now?"
"Of course, notify Su Zun and the Hall Master. Su Zun said earlier, their backing must be strong; if we can avoid offending them, it's best not to."
...
In the palace, Su Han sat cross-legged.
In front of him, a Phoenix Sect disciple finished his report.
"I understand."
Su Han pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at the disciple and asked, "What do you think my character is like?"
The disciple apparently did not expect Su Han's question and was momentarily surprised, then instinctively replied, "Sect Master's character is clear, those who don't mess with me, I won't mess with."
"That's correct."
Su Han said casually, "When they soften their stance, their tone doesn't need to be respectful, but at least courteous, only then come to me."
"Yes."
The disciple responded, then hesitated, "Sect Master, didn't you say before that these people have strong backgrounds... that we shouldn't offend them?"
"Did I say that?"
Su Han smiled, "In this world, there's no one I'm afraid to offend. If they're polite, it's certainly best not to offend them; but if they're so arrogant, can we grovel to them?"
"Understood." The disciple took a deep breath and slowly retreated.
After the disciple left, Su Han stood up, releasing his Divine Sense.
His cultivation base now stood at the Peak of the Dragon Martial Continent, and as his Divine Sense swept out, it crossed the entire Barren Land, passed through the group of Extraterritorial Demons, and landed on those geniuses outside.
His Divine Sense's arrival was not concealed, and the geniuses immediately looked up, seemingly searching for the owner of this Divine Sense.
"Knowing we're already here, why aren't you hurrying out to greet us?!"
Donghua Leng immediately snorted, "I don't care who you are or what your cultivation is; this Young Master is a direct disciple of one of the Seventy-Two Sects of the Lower-Class Star Region, the Sect of the Heavenly River. If you delay our training, be careful of our Sect of the Heavenly River exterminating you!"
