“What?”
Tuoba Ye’s eyes widened, “You want to resist?”
He had no particular friendship with Joshua Wang, and since his life was at stake, he didn’t mind giving Joshua a beating.
“I wouldn’t dare!”
Joshua’s mouth was filled with bitterness. He absolutely believed that if he displeased Tuoba Ye now, Tuoba Ye might kill his entire family. After all, Tuoba Ye had just lost his personal disciple and was in a foul mood.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Tuoba Ye swung his arm, landing over a dozen heavy slaps on Joshua’s face, spinning him around in place several times before stopping.
When he finally stopped, Joshua’s mouth was full of blood, and he had lost half of his teeth, looking utterly miserable.
A dignified Patriarch of the Condensing Origin Realm eighth-level, beaten into a pig’s head on the street, without the slightest ability to resist.
The entire front of South Jiang Manor was silent.
The development of events left everyone present utterly astonished.
Gu Qianyin’s beautiful eyes sparkled. To be honest, even she hadn’t expected Terra Su to have the ability to toy with a Condensing Origin Realm ninth-level expert.
The nearby members of the Wang Family and North Jiang Manor were all twitching with embarrassment, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into. Today’s events could definitely be recorded in their annals of shame.
The veins on Joshua’s face twitched madly, showing that he was already burning with rage inside, but he didn’t dare show any resentment on his face, deeply burying his hatred.
“Terra Su, Terra Su!” Joshua swore silently in his heart, “I will make you pay for this!”
Joshua knew that although Tuoba Ye was the one who hit him, it was ultimately because of Terra Su. The reason he lost so much face today was all because of Terra Su!
Given the chance, he would repay Terra Su’s humiliation a hundredfold.
However, Joshua knew that this opportunity would not be easy to find. The current South Jiang Manor was not what it used to be, with three Condensing Origin Realm eighth-level experts holding the fort. Finding a chance to deal with Terra Su would not be easy.
After finishing slapping Joshua, Tuoba Ye didn’t spare him another glance, turning instead with a hint of anticipation towards Terra Su.
Terra Su nodded and said to Tuoba Ye, “Very good, you performed well.”
“Now I’ll give you a prescription. Take the medicine according to the prescription, and it will temporarily suppress your deviation. You’ll be safe for six months.”
Tuoba Ye was slightly disappointed, but he knew that Terra Su couldn’t possibly cure him completely in one go. It was human nature; if the roles were reversed, he would also hold something back.
“Thank you, Young Master Su.”
Tuoba Ye had no choice but to nod and accept the prescription from Terra Su.
“Young Master Su, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
Tuoba Ye didn’t want to stay here any longer; he was eager to go back and take the medicine according to Terra Su’s prescription.
Immediately, Tuoba Ye ordered his men to hastily clean up Zhang Yan’s corpse and left in a hurry.
At the scene, only Joshua and the members of the Wang Family and North Jiang Manor remained.
“Kid, consider yourself lucky today!”
Joshua glared viciously at Terra Su, then turned to leave.
However, before he could take a step, Terra Su’s cold voice came from behind:
“Patriarch Wang, it seems we haven’t settled our score yet?”
What?
Joshua’s steps halted, almost unable to believe his ears. Terra Su wanted to settle scores with him?
“Terra Su!”
Joshua roared in disbelief, “Don’t be too arrogant! Don’t think that just because South Jiang Manor now has three Condensing Origin Realm eighth-level experts, you can do whatever you want!”
“Can’t we?”
Terra Su shrugged.
As he spoke, Sophia Xu and the other two had already caught up, surrounding Joshua.
“Hmph!”
Joshua sneered, “You’re too naive. The Wang Family’s foundation is not as simple as you think!”
As he spoke, Joshua wiped the blood from his mouth, his eyes turning fierce and sinister.
Immediately, Joshua’s sleeves fluttered, and gusts of wind swirled around him, making the air whistle.
His aura suddenly erupted, rising rapidly from the early stage of the Condensing Origin Realm eighth-level to the mid-stage.
And it continued to rise!
“Battle Body Technique!”
Sophia Xu’s face changed, “This is the Wang Family’s Battle Body Technique. Once perfected, it can temporarily increase one’s cultivation level by one stage at the cost of severe injury!”
“Joshua is now at the Condensing Origin Realm eighth-level. If he activates the Battle Body Technique, his cultivation level will reach the ninth-level!”
The people of South Jiang Manor were all shocked upon hearing this.
They hadn’t expected Joshua to have such a method, allowing his cultivation level to temporarily rise to the Condensing Origin Realm ninth-level!
Moreover, even when Tuoba Ye was slapping him earlier, Joshua had endured without using this technique.
It seemed he had planned to save this technique for now, to contend with South Jiang Manor!
Because using this technique came at the cost of severe injury and could only be used once, Joshua had endured the humiliation of being slapped by Tuoba Ye in public to save it for dealing with South Jiang Manor.
“If Joshua raises his cultivation level to the Condensing Origin Realm ninth-level, the three of us together won’t be his match.”
Sophia Xu said solemnly, signaling Gu Qianyin and Sean Feng to retreat and avoid direct confrontation with Joshua.
Seeing this, Joshua snorted coldly and stopped releasing his aura.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to use the Battle Body Technique. The severe injuries it caused were difficult to heal completely and could leave lasting effects.
He had only activated the Battle Body Technique to scare Sophia Xu and the others, to show that he was not a lamb to the slaughter. If pushed too far, he had the ability to fight to the death.
“Little Terra, let’s head back to the manor.”
Sophia Xu said to Terra Su.
“Let’s go!”
Joshua snorted coldly and called his men to leave.
The conflict was thus resolved hastily.
Everyone returned to South Jiang Manor.
Sophia Xu patted her chest and let out a long breath.
“Little Terra, today was really satisfying. I’ve never seen Joshua so humiliated.”
Sophia Xu said, “But it was also risky. If Tuoba Ye hadn’t had a problem with his cultivation, things might not have ended so well today.”
Terra Su smiled. He had noticed Tuoba Ye’s issue and chose this way to handle it. If Tuoba Ye hadn’t had a problem, he would have used another method.
Gu Qianyin sat quietly to the side, her beautiful eyes thoughtfully lingering on Terra Su. She found it increasingly difficult to see through him. Every dangerous situation seemed to turn into a blessing in his hands. Was there anything in the world that could limit Terra Su?
“After today, the Wang Family and North Jiang Manor will lose face and morale.”
“And the Ye Family will continue to lie low, not daring to confront us directly.”
“Soon, South Jiang Manor will dominate Clear River City!”
A high-ranking member of South Jiang Manor said with great enthusiasm.
