Chapter 1498
Tang Wulin stepped forward and positioned himself in front of Yuanen Yehui and Xie Xie. "I\'m sure there\'s some kind of misunderstanding here. You are Yuanen\'s family, so why can\'t you settle this with words rather than violence?"
The middle-aged man countered, "This has nothing to do with you! She has to come back with us. Otherwise..."
The elderly man interjected, "Alright, that\'s enough. Yuanen has to come with us; that\'s non-negotiable. Yuanen, do you intend to make me capture you by force? Do you think these little brats will be able to stop me?"
A complex look appeared on Yuanen Yehui\'s face, and she glanced at Xie Xie and Tang Wulin before stepping forward to stand beside Tang Wulin. "I\'ll go with them, Captain."
Tang Wulin turned toward her to discover a hint of finality in her eyes.
This definitely wasn\'t the expression of a tantrum-throwing brat who had run away from home; the look in her eyes suggested that she was ready to die!
"No! No one is taking you anywhere if I can help it."
The middle-aged man scoffed in a cold voice, "You sure are a cocky brat! Let me see if you can back up that big mouth of yours!"
"Can you be any more annoying?" Before Tang Wulin had a chance to respond, a figure suddenly charged toward the middle-aged man before thrusting a gentle palm toward him.
Yellow light flashed from the middle-aged man\'s body, and he unleashed a slow-looking punch in retaliation.
The fist and palm clashed, and the middle-aged man\'s expression changed drastically as he stumbled a couple of steps to the side. Immediately thereafter, he felt as if a vision of a boundless ocean had appeared before his eyes, and palm projections were crashing down upon him like a tsunami wave.
If it were just a wave, then he wouldn\'t be fazed, but all of the palm projections within the wave were rotating in different directions, and they were all interconnected, looking as if they would explode upon contact.
Even the elderly man was stunned by the sight of such an attack. He had already sensed that Tang Wulin and Lan Fuozi were Titled Douluos, and he had also detected their Spirit Domain realm spiritual power. However, Titled Douluos were still far inferior to Limit Douluos, so he didn\'t pay them much heed.
However, the power displayed by Lan Fuozi was comparable to that of a Hyper Douluo, and it was undoubtedly the case that he was a brilliant prodigy.
The middle-aged man let loose a furious roar as his first, third, and fifth soul rings lit up in unison. His body then swelled drastically in size as he instantly transformed into a terrifying Titan Giant Ape.
Immediately thereafter, he unleashed several dozens of punches in rapid succession, trying to quell the oncoming attack through brute strength.
However, the palm projections hurtling toward him were filled with rotational power that quickly nullified the force of his attacks, and as the vortexes approached him, he could sense that the protective soul power around himself was about to be torn apart.
In this dire situation, golden light flashed from his body, and he crossed his arms to form a barricade in front of himself. A string of resounding booms rang out as the vortexes struck his body, and he was only just barely able to withstand Lan Fuozi\'s attack.
With that one palm alone, Lan Fuozi had shocked everyone present. Even Tang Wulin was astonished by her overwhelming attack.
Yuanen Yehui\'s Divine Cloudvortex Fists also derive their power from rotation, but it was clearly lacking in that regard compared to Lan Fuozi\'s attack.
Thinking back to the wave of palm projections, Yuanen Yehui couldn\'t help but consider how she would react if she had to face such an attack.
The middle-aged man was forced back several steps, and the fury in his eyes had been replaced by shock. Were the young people of this generation this powerful? He was a rank 93 Titled Douluo, yet he had been forced back by just a single attack.
"You\'re nothing much," Lan Fuozi scoffed with a derisive expression.
The elderly man\'s expression darkened upon hearing this. "Don\'t get cocky, little brat; you\'d have no chance if my eldest son were here."
Lan Fuozi replied in a cold voice, "How about you fill in for him then? I hate restrictive parents like you!"
The elderly man\'s brows furrowed slightly, and he nodded in response. "Alright, watch carefully."
As he uttered the words "watch carefully", he had shifted his gaze to Yuanen Yehui. After that, he raised a hand and pointed a finger toward Lan Fuozi in a very simple and straightforward manner.
Lan Fuozi harrumphed coldly as she unleashed another wave of palm projections, but this one was clearly more powerful than the previous one.
Even Tang Wulin could clearly sense the terrifying power imbued within the vortexes, and the most fearsome aspect of this attack was the fact that all of the vortexes enhanced one another.
The attack required immense power to unleash, and incredible spiritual power to control.
However, the elderly man paid no heed to this and merely continued to extend his finger toward Lan Fuozi.
Lan Fuozi was very proud, but she knew that she was facing a Limit Douluo, so she was giving this attack her all and hadn\'t allowed any complacency to set in. As such, she was very careful and made sure to control each and every vortex so that they exploded at the perfect moments.
Yellow light began to radiate from the finger, and the vortexes exerted all types of different force upon it, but it remained completely unfazed.
At the same time, it continued to advance slowly toward Lan Fuozi like a sluggish, immovable mountain.
"Bam!" All of the vortexes were instantly shattered, and Lan Fuozi stumbled back seven or eight steps before falling onto her backside.
The elderly man remained at his position and withdrew his finger as he said in an indifferent voice, "An immovable pillar cannot be swayed by any force, do you understand?"
Tang Wulin took a deep breath, and he was suddenly struck by a strong urge to challenge this elderly man.
That finger strike appeared to have been very simple, but it had completely stunned him.
There was no embellishment or special technique, nor any soul skills used; the finger had simply been filled with unmatched intent and pure, unadulterated power.
The attack perfectly embodied the power of a strength-type Soul Master.
It was undoubtedly the case that the Titan Giant Ape was a strength-type martial soul, and for him to have cultivated such a martial soul to the Limit Douluo level meant that he cultivated his strength to the limit. This was the first time that Tang Wulin had ever met a strength-type Limit Douluo, and he was very eager to challenge him.
Lan Fuozi sat on the ground with a blank look on her face. She hadn\'t been injured, but her spirit had been crushed.
This so-called immovable pillar was similar to her family\'s integration of all rotations, but she was still very far from reaching that level, yet the elderly man had already accomplished it. He was truly very powerful!
Yuanen Yehui was looking directly at the elderly man. Everything he had just done had been a demonstration for her.
Is, is he teaching me?
"Come back with me," the elderly man said to Yuanen Yehui before turning and walking away into the darkness.
"Boss!" Xie Xie yelled in a frantic manner.
The elderly man was too powerful, and he could only place his hope in Tang Wulin.
"Please wait, Senior," Tang Wulin said in a respectful voice.
The elderly man had won his respect through his display of power, and on top of that, he was Yuanen Yehui\'s grandfather.
The elderly man turned his head toward Tang Wulin, and said, "You\'re quite exceptional as well, but you\'re still too young. This is truly a golden generation. Yuanen is necessary to continue our bloodline, so I won\'t do anything to harm her. However, she must come back with me."
