Chapter 1043: Shameless old man
"Haha, come at me with everything you’ve got! It’s very rare to stumble upon a fellow Heavenly Soul Realm cultivator. Show me what you’ve got!" Elaine’s eyes flashed with anticipation and excitement.
Elder Song and Genelia’s expressions darkened the moment they heard the mysterious lady mention the term ’fellow Heavenly Soul Realm cultivator.’ They could already feel a dominating, suffocating pressure engulfing the surroundings, emanating directly from Aana.
The two of them gulped nervously. After all, Aana’s cultivation shouldn’t have been anywhere near the Heavenly Soul Realm. According to many reliable sources within the Kingdom, she was merely an Earth Realm cultivator just a few years ago. It was truly shocking to see her radiating the frightening aura of a Heavenly Soul Realm Cultivator.
’Father, what in the world is happening here?’ Genelia’s voice echoed in Elder Song’s mind, begging him to explain the events unfolding right before their eyes. One after another, the surprises just kept coming.
’We have to get out of here as soon as possible. It’s better not to get involved in their fight. All of them are on a completely different level—I can feel it. Their cultivation bases have already suppressed the Earth Realm. Every single one of them is a Heavenly Soul Realm cultivator,’ Elder Song responded in a panicked mental transmission, warning his daughter to stay on her guard so they wouldn’t get swept away by the collision of two apex Cultivator.
At the same time, Aana grew furious upon hearing Elaine’s blatant provocation.
"Calm down! You are going to destroy everything around you!" Before Aana could make a move against Elaine, Athena appeared right in front of her, blocking her path. She signaled Aana to retract her frightening aura. While the four of them might be unaffected by the pressure, the bystanders clearly were.
"She is right. You need to calm down," Kana added, appearing right next to her younger sister. She gently tapped Aana’s shoulder to soothe her. Because of Aana’s terrifying cultivation base, the surrounding space was actively trembling. If she actually engaged in a fight with this mysterious woman, the sheer shockwaves of their collision would flatten the entire clan and destroy River Shore City.
"Look at the ground. You’ve already knocked out hundreds of people," Kana pointed out.
Aana frowned, looking down to see countless people lying unconscious on the ground. Those who possessed a stronger willpower or a decent cultivation base were down on their knees, staring up at the sky with horrified expressions. These people were entirely clueless; they had no idea what the hell just happened,they could only feel the crushing pressure on their bodies.
"Fine... I know my limits, but that woman is dangerous. I can feel it," Aana muttered. Realizing she had gone a bit too far, she withdrew her cultivation base. In the next instant, the suffocating pressure vanished, and everything returned to normal.
"Why don’t you let me handle everything from now on..." Athena was in the middle of speaking when a figure of a handsome man appeared, catching everyone’s attention—including Elder Song and Genelia’s.
"Her name is Elaine. For the time being, she is staying with the clan. You don’t have to worry about her," Yohan said, looking over at Athena, Aana, and Kana.
The three women were caught off guard by Yohan’s sudden arrival, but they nodded and shifted their curious gazes toward Elaine. Feeling their eyes on her, Elaine simply waved her hand with a casual smile.
As he arrived, Yohan noticed two figures standing alongside Lucine. It didn’t take him long to recognize the old man he had met a long time ago.
"It’s been a while, Elder Song," Yohan said, his expression calm and composed.
Elder Song could only gawk in disbelief. Yohan looked completely different than he did two years ago. He was nothing like his old, frail self. Standing before him was a completely transformed man with a well-defined physique and an otherworldly aura that made him stand out effortlessly. He was, without a doubt, the most handsome man Elder Song had ever met.
"It is good to see you again, Young Master Yohan," Elder Song immediately responded, trying his best to maintain his composure in front of the young man whom he meeting after a very long time.
"What brings you here?" Yohan asked straightforwardly, not beating around the bush.
"I heard a commotion... and I thought you might need some assistance. That is why I came uninvited. Please forgive my rudeness," Elder Song replied politely.
"That’s quite alright, you don’t have to apologize. I still feel indebted to you for that sword you let me have without asking for anything in return," Yohan said graciously remembering the precious weapon asura that he got from him.
Elder Song felt a wave of relief and warmth hearing Yohan’s words. "Think nothing of it. After all, it was a cursed weapon that was completely useless to me. I am just glad you were able to form a successful soul bond with it,that sword truly belongs to you!"
Elder Song then turned his head toward the young woman standing right next to him. "And this is my eldest daughter, Genelia."
Without wasting another breath, Elder Song introduced Genelia to Yohan. The moment he did, multiple sharp gazes darted in their direction. Aana, Kana, and Athena all looked at the shameless old man with varying degrees of surprise. His intentions were practically written all over his face. Elder Song simply ignored the glares; this was a golden opportunity, and he wasn’t about to let it slip away.
Meanwhile, Genelia’s heart thumped wildly against her ribs the moment her eyes met Yohan’s. She stood frozen to the spot, completely captivated by his deep,mesmerizing eyes.
"It’s nice to meet you, Lady Genelia," Yohan said simpl.
Aana frowned, immediately noticing the dazed, infatuated look on the new girl’s face. A bittersweet smile played on Kana’s lips as she watched her sister’s reaction; Aana was always fiercely possessive and overprotective when it came to Yohan,kana was very well aware of that!
"The pleasure is entirely mine to meet you in person, Young Master Yohan! I have heard many rumours about you," Genelia replied eagerly. Her excited behavior was a complete 180-degree turn from her earlier, skeptical claims, leaving even her father surprised by her sudden shift.
"Ah, those nasty rumors..." Yohan sighed in a defeated manner, briefly wondering exactly what kind of rumours she had heard about him. Shaking it off, he looked back at Elder Song.
"Please, feel free to stay as long as you like. Right now, I am in the middle of something."
"I understand. Please, don’t mind us," Elder Song replied after all he didn’t want to get in his way,he already realised what was going on there.
Yohan nodded, and his gaze shifted toward the five captive grand elders of the six great factions. After being exposed to the raw, crushing weight of Aana’s Heavenly Soul Realm cultivation base, they were all in terrible shape—looking as good as dead.
"Where is the last one?"Athena asked as she looked at Yohan.
Yohan simply took a long sigh and then he whispered.
"He is dead!"
