Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 698 - 689: Conflict Erupts

"You’re probably not qualified to take me on," Mo Wangchen said indifferently after extinguishing Fang Yuan’s fan-shaped radiance.

Immediately, he stood up from his original position.

"Boom!"

Inside the Fang Family’s hall, space shook at this moment, and an invisible martial pressure instantly filled the entire room.

Supreme Emperor’s might permeated the air, causing a change of color in all who felt it, bearing down on Fang Yuan like a heavy mountain.

"Pfft!"

Feeling the terrifying pressure from Mo Wangchen, Fang Yuan’s complexion turned pale as snow in an instant and uncontrollably, blood spurted from his mouth.

"You... how is this possible?!"

He was visibly shocked, eyes filled with disbelief. Merely the oppressive aura was enough to cause him to cough up blood from his internal injuries.

Just how terrifying was the cultivation of this white-robed man who came from the Northern Immortal Domain?

"Apologize." Mo Wangchen’s gaze was indifferent as he scanned the other party. If it were before, he would have already killed him.

But today, he had come to the Fang Family for a map, and there were misunderstandings involved.

He didn’t want to kill, but demanding an apology from Fang Yuan was already the biggest concession he was willing to make.

Hearing Mo Wangchen’s words, Fang Yuan’s brow furrowed further, his face showing great reluctance as he gritted his teeth, "Why should I apologize to you?"

"Boom!"

Mo Wangchen took another step, and the terrible Emperor’s might became even stronger, like endless mountains continually pressing down, threatening to crush Fang Yuan completely.

"Apologize," he demanded again.

"I will not!"

Fang Yuan clenched his teeth stubbornly, not showing any sign of submission on his face. He could hear the bones in his body making mournful noises under the pressing weight of Mo Wangchen’s martial pressure, as if they might be ground into dust at any moment, completely crushing him.

"I will only count to three," Mo Wangchen spoke again, the Supreme Emperor’s might spreading from him, relentlessly pushing towards Fang Yuan.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Stop!"

However, at that moment, a cold rebuke came from outside the hall.

A streak of Divine Rainbow swiftly entered the room; it was an old man with white hair and beard, his eyes full of vicissitudes.

"The Great Elder has arrived!"

Outside the hall, the clan members of the Fang Family exclaimed in surprise. Mo Wangchen’s pressure also made it difficult for them to bear.

"Young friend, who might you be, and why have you attacked a member of our Fang Family?"

The Great Elder furrowed his brow, stepping in front of Fang Yuan, and at that moment, the pressure released by Mo Wangchen instantly dissipated.

Fang Yuan’s body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground, his back cold and drenched with sweat, gasping for air with large breaths.

"I apologize, it was he who unreasonably attacked me first. Now, I simply want him to apologize to me," Mo Wangchen said, his brow slightly furrowed in the face of the suddenly-arrived Fang Family’s Great Elder. This person’s cultivation was not low, and he was probably already at the seventh level of the Emperor Realm, a powerful Great Mahayana Realm cultivator.

However, to himself, what did it matter whether it was the Great Mahayana or not?

Even if the other party was an Immortal Realm powerhouse, today, if he wanted Fang Yuan to apologize, then he must apologize to settle the matter.

"Although that may be the case, don’t you think you were a bit too heavy-handed, young friend? And now, to still pressure Fang Yuan with your aura, don’t you think it’s somewhat excessive?" said the Fang Family’s Great Elder in such a manner.

"Excessive?"

Hearing these words, Mo Wangchen’s expression suddenly turned cold, "He attacked without cause, and had my strength not been superior, I might have been suppressed by now. You, as the Fang Family’s Great Elder, care not to question why your clansman attacked another, but instead, you come here seeking to accuse me?"

"How audacious, to speak to the Great Elder in such a manner!"

Outside the hall, some of the Fang Family members also walked in. What kind of person was the Great Elder? He was almost equivalent to being the second-in-command to the Clan Leader. How could he tolerate Mo Wangchen’s insolence in his presence?

In normal times, the Fang Family showed the utmost respect to the Great Elder, so naturally, they couldn’t help but stand up now, rebuking Mo Wangchen, thinking him too arrogant to speak to the Great Elder like that, practically challenging the authority of the Fang Family.

"Great Elder, I suggest we seize this person and hand him over to the Clan Leader for judgment!"

"This individual’s words are arrogant beyond measure, treating our Fang Family as if we were nothing, and he even dared to injure Fang Yuan. We must mete out severe punishment to uphold our family’s dignity."

Many clansmen stepped forward to express themselves in this way.

"Please, young friend, surrender willingly. As long as the matter is clarified afterwards, our Fang Family will surely not make things difficult for you." Amid the voices of the others, the Great Elder finally spoke.

A force belonging to the seventh level of the Emperor Realm began to slowly emanate from him, instantly tightening the atmosphere in the hall.

"Meekly surrender?"

Mo Wangchen’s face grew utterly cold, his last remaining sliver of goodwill towards the Fang Family completely vanishing at that moment.

"If the Fang Family does not welcome me, then I will leave. But if you want me to surrender without resistance, I’m sorry to say, you are probably not qualified."

After speaking, he stepped forward, intending to walk out of the Fang Family hall.

"Stop him!"

The Great Elder called out sternly, and immediately afterward, several figures rushed into the hall from outside.

These were the Elders of the Fang Family, all with cultivations above the fourth level of the Emperor Realm.

"Scram!"

Mo Wangchen coldly reprimanded and then dispensed with any shred of courtesy.

Holy Light exploded around his body, and a terrifying momentum swept through, sending all the chairs in the hall flying.

"Thump!"

In the next moment, the Fang Family’s Elders coughed up blood, their bodies as if struck by a heavy blow, were violently shaken and thrown out.

"What?!"

This sudden turn of events shocked not only the Fang Family members but even the Great Elder himself was startled.

These Elders were all powerful beings above the fourth level of the Emperor Realm; even throughout Yedu City, they were considered top-notch experts.

Yet, none expected that they would be so easily overpowered by a young man.

"Hmph!"

After his surprise, the Great Elder’s face turned unsightly, realizing that he too had underestimated Mo Wangchen’s strength.

Today, if Mo Wangchen was not subdued, and word got out, what face would the Fang Family have left?

With a cold snort, he made a move himself, his terrifying imperial authority instantly erupting to its peak, an oppressive force pervading the whole hall. The younger clansmen standing not far from the door, caught off guard, suddenly turned pale and nearly vomited blood.

"Swish, swish!"

He reached out with one hand, closing in on Mo Wangchen, intending to seize him on the spot.

"Scram!"

Mo Wangchen took a step forward, his fists surging with bright energy. Under the gaze of everyone present, the attack of the two finally collided.

"Bang!"

A muffled sound ensued, unbelievably to all, the Great Elder was also repelled, his body flying out of the hall to land a dozen yards away before finally stabilizing.

In contrast, Mo Wangchen stood unharmed at the same spot, an aura of power swirling around him, his clothes rustling, his character ineffably ethereal.
