This Earth Is A Bit Fearsome

Chapter 516: Incredible Might and Invincible Presence

That was the kind of might that Lu Xuan had accumulated over the past several decades, which he gained from taking part in several battles all over the world. It didn’t matter whether or not people liked him; they were all still somehow confident in what he was capable of.

The elite geniuses that suddenly emerged from the BI all looked smug and holier-than-thou. Even so, they all knew that the one man who possessed the power to take on the world was definitely none other than Lu Xuan.

Throughout his years of subjugating everyone in the world who he deemed to be insubordinate, the world acknowledged him as the one supreme grandmaster of martial and arcane arts.

He was far stronger than someone like Yun Shuangying, who was only able to throw his weight around because those who were stronger than him were not around.

Lu Xuan gave a cold look as he said, “I did not expect you to resort to backstabbing people like this, Yun Shuangying.”

Yun Shuangying did not expect Lu Xuan to have recognized him as well, considering the fact that he had never stepped foot on Earth before. Even the lackeys of the Taichu Path, which they planted on the planet, had never seen him before. Therefore, nobody should have recognized him. This was especially so for Lu Xuan, who was supposed to be his target.

His first reaction was to figure out that there might have been a mole in their midst.

However, he quickly dismissed that thought. The pawns that the Taichu Path had planted all those years ago were essentially slaves put under the organization’s control.

He then finally realized that his initial plan, which was to Lu Xuan off guard during that one battle and eliminate Yunxuan Villa, had failed. He could no longer demonstrate to everyone the might of the Blessed Enclave and the Taichu Path.

He never realized that Lu Xuan was not entirely oblivious of their existence in the first place. On the contrary, the man standing before him seemed to have been prepared for a long time now.

At that moment, many began to greet Lu Xuan, one after another.

“Greetings, Palace Lord Lu.”

“Good day, Mr. Lu.”

“It is a pleasure to see you here, Mr. Lu.”

…

All renowned figures from the field of politics, economy, and cultivation all over the world greeted Lu Xuan out of courtesy.

Despite being on a battlefield, they were all still desperate to get on Lu Xuan’s good side.

All of them knew that the man dressed in a bluish-white robe standing before them seemed as if he walked straight out of comic books after tearing a spatial rift. That man was none other than the big boss behind the workings on Earth.

Lu Xuan could have easily snuffed any of them out completely if he were merely displeased with any of them.

At that moment, all manner of comments flooded the live broadcasts.

Everyone essentially went insane the very second he made his appearance.

It was especially so with those who came from cults that revered Lu Xuan as a living god. Countless of those believes knelt upon seeing him.

Moreover, he essentially had tens of millions of fans due to his looks alone. All of them showered him with compliments after seeing him looking increasingly god-like.

“You truly are something, Senior Lu.” Lu Diandian, who was standing not far away from him, was thoroughly impressed seeing how Lu Xuan was being surrounded by all those renowned figures.

While she did not recognize any of those figures from their respective fields, she could still tell that all of those well-dressed people had a superb air about them. It was obvious that none of them were ordinary people.

They possessed the kind of bearing and aura that one could only nurture by spending enough time as a high-ranking figure.

Even so, all those high-ranking figures had to submit to Lu Xuan at once. Even though those people were mere mortals to the likes of her, that scene was still very significant.

Jiang Hangchao then said, “I did not realize that Senior Lu actually had that much influence among the mortals.”

Those people had all seen just how much respect their own masters commanded within their own sects and clans. However, none of what they had seen could even compare to their current situation with Lu Xuan.

He looked like a beacon of light in the dark, which drew attention from all wherever he went. Nobody else could have ever possessed the kind of presence that someone who reigned over the whole world had.

Not only had they not seen such presence in their own masters before, they had never even seen any of the handful of masters of the most pinnacle of lineages with that kind of presence before.

None of them knew that Lu Xuan’s might and presence back in his past life had been far greater than what it was then. He had once been a celestial lord, an entity that all living beings would submit to.

Back then, even the renowned figures from all over the universe had to kneel before him. As such, what happened right there was nothing compared to that.

Lu Xuan smiled and nodded at the renowned figures on Earth. However, his gaze remained locked at Yun Shuangying, who was standing high in the air at the moment.

“At first, I thought you were more than this, Yun Shuangying. This is quite disappointing.”

Lu Xuan shook his head. His own experience told him that while Yun Shuangying was unable to compare with the likes of Yan Han, that other man still caused him trouble back then.

That man left quite an impression on him. When he saw the other man again in his current life, He did not expect that the other man to have stooped so low.

Yun Shuangying did not even have the courage to fight Lu Shanshan, so he resorted to sneaking up on Lu Xuan. That made Lu Xuan extremely disappointed with him.

Since Lu Xuan had seen many people like Yun Shuangying in his past life, he thought nothing of it. He was simply disappointed.

Things truly had changed.

Then again, he knew that he was then one who had changed, not Yun Shuangying.

Back in Lu Xuan’s past life, Yun Shuangying had practically looked down on him. That meant he did not even need to resort to tricks and schemes; brute force alone would have been enough to get the job done.

Even so, Yun Shuangying had no chance at winning now. His chances of victory were so low that even the thought of fighting Lu Shanshan frightened him.

In a different state of mind, it was natural for someone to make completely different decisions than usual.

Yun Shuangying was immediately infuriated by Lu Xuan’s demeanor.

‘Are you pitying me? Do I, Yun Shuangying, look like I need pitying from anyone?’

Yun Shuangying shouted, “Kill him. That man is Lu Xuan. Brother Yan has given the order. Anyone who manages to kill him will be given a chance to gain access to a sacred ground of the Taichu and hone themselves further!”

At first, he had no idea why Yan Han had to place so much importance on some kid from the mortal world before. Now, he finally realized why. He was the one who was blind, not Yan Han.

He failed to realize that a true dragon actually managed to emerge out of shallow waters.

Everyone was itching to kill as soon as they heard the order, immediately throwing any wariness they felt against Lu Xuan out of the window.

They had long heard of that sacred ground of the Taichu Path, which remained mostly forbidden to even the most elite and exceptional of members among the Taichu Path. One had to earn merits to be given a chance to train there.

It was said that this sacred ground had a density of ambient spirit qi 10 times greater than everywhere else. Making a breakthrough there would have been made considerably easier.

It could be said that even if someone still failed to make a breakthrough there, they still would have significantly benefitted from just gaining access to such a place.

This kind of opportunity was extremely hard to come by.

However, one could also easily see that for Yan Han, killing Lu Xuan was indeed considered a deed of considerable merit.

“You wanna kill me?” Lu Xuan flashed a faint grin.

He then grabbed at the air before him, coalescing Spiritual Aether in his hand to conjure a golden whip. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the whip was covered in densely packed dragon scales.

This ability was called the ‘Dragon-snaring Lasso’.

Just a single whip from that weapon was said to be able to trap true dragons, the most ferocious of beasts in the world. It was near-impossible for one to shake themselves free. Lu Xuan managed to ensnare that woman in a blue dress with that Dragon-snaring Lasso.

A battle erupted right away.
