Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

"So, you mean you refused?"

The smile on Li Qian's face gradually disappeared.

The atmosphere in the main hall instantly plummeted to freezing point.

The monks behind him had already placed their hands on their sword hilts.

"Looks like you're going to have to suffer the consequences instead of accepting the offer."

Li Qian's voice turned cold.

He slowly raised his hand.

"Since you're so shameless, I'll just have to tear that face off myself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped Yuan Shan hard across the face.

He used half his strength in that slap.

A slap from a seventh-level Nascent Soul cultivator is enough to smash the head of an ordinary cultivator.

He wanted to completely shatter Yuan Shan's dignity in front of everyone.

Yuan Shan's pupils contracted.

He tried to dodge, but the opponent was too fast, and a powerful aura had already locked onto him.

With only a fifth-order Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, how could he possibly resist Li Qian?

He could only watch helplessly as the hand grew larger and larger in front of him.

It’s over.

At this critical moment.

A calm, even somewhat lazy voice came from the entrance of the main hall.

"You guys are being a bit noisy."

......

Everyone in the hall stopped moving.

Li Qian's slap stopped less than three inches from Yuan Shan's cheek.

All eyes turned to the entrance of the main hall.

The light at the entrance was dim.

A person dressed in a loose black robe, whose face was obscured, stood there quietly.

He seemed to have been standing there for a long time.

It's as if it just appeared.

"Who are you?"

Li Qian frowned and withdrew his hand.

He was very annoyed that his pretentious rhythm had been interrupted.

He looked Lin Bai up and down, but couldn't sense any spiritual energy fluctuations from him.

Just like an ordinary mortal.

How dare a mortal speak to him in such a tone at a time like this?

The moment Yuan Shan saw Lin Bai, his heart nearly jumped out of his throat.

he came!

He really came!

After the immense surprise came a deeper fear.

He had absolutely no idea what kind of temper this newly appointed Supreme Elder had.

Are they here to save the day, or to watch the show?

Or perhaps they simply found it noisy and came out for a walk?

"senior......"

Yuan Shan's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

He instinctively wanted to step forward and bow.

Lin Bai raised his hand to stop him.

Lin Bai's gaze swept over everyone and landed on the open wooden box in the center of the hall.

A whole box full of spirit stones.

He now has a basic understanding of the world's monetary system.

This box seems to be quite valuable.

His gaze then fell on the dozen or so Chiyang Sect cultivators, scanning them one by one.

The strongest one is that loud and boisterous young man, a seventh-order Integration Stage cultivator.

The rest were all minor figures at the Refinement of Void and Transformation of Spirit realms.

A swarm of ants.

Lin Bai mentally gave his assessment.

He originally just wanted to ask Yuan Shan about the seventh level of the cultivation technique, but he didn't expect to run into this.

If I had known, I would have come out later.

trouble.

Seeing that Lin Bai ignored him and instead stared at the spirit stones like a country bumpkin, Li Qian's displeasure instantly turned into contempt.

"Where did this beggar come from? Has he never seen money before?"

The monks behind him burst into laughter again.

"I'm asking you a question, are you deaf or mute?"

Li Qian raised his voice, his tone filled with impatience.

Just then, Yuan Shan took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, stepped forward, and bowed respectfully to Lin Bai.

"Disciple Yuan Shan greets the Supreme Elder!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it was like a thunderclap, exploding in the silent hall.

The laughter of the Chiyang Sect members abruptly stopped.

Li Qian's expression also froze.

Supreme Elder?

This guy, dressed in a black robe, doesn't even have the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy?

Are the Stone Ape Sect so desperate for money?

Can you just pull an old farmer out of any mountain valley and call him a Supreme Elder?

After a brief moment of surprise, Li Qian burst into a thunderous laugh.

"Hahaha! That's hilarious! Yuan Shan, you're really getting more and more successful!"

"What? You can't beat me, so you send out this kind of stunt to put on a show?"

"Supreme Elder? I think it's more like the Supreme Old Farmer!"

He laughed so hard he almost fell over, and tears were welling up in his eyes.

The cultivators behind him were also laughing so hard they were almost falling over, their eyes full of mockery as they looked at Lin Bai.

Only Yuan Shan and Xu Changqing kept their heads down and remained silent.

But their backs were already soaked with cold sweat.

They knew better than anyone just how terrifying this man, mocked as an "old farmer," really was.

The Stone Ape Sect could not withstand Lin Bai's wrath.

Lin Bai still didn't react.

He didn't even glance at Li Qian.

His gaze shifted from the spirit stone box to Yuan Shan.

"We'll talk about the cultivation technique later."

"Clean up the trash first."

His voice was calm, but that calm tone sent chills down Yuan Shan and Xu Changqing's spines.

Rubbish?

Who is the trash?

The answer is self-evident.

Li Qian's laughter also stopped.

His face was so gloomy it could drip water.

"Who are you calling trash?"

He asked, enunciating each word clearly, his eyes already filled with murderous intent.

Someone he considered an ant dared to humiliate him like this in front of so many people.

Unforgivable!

"Zhang Long!"

Li Qian shouted without turning his head.

Behind him, a burly man with a face full of scars walked out with a sinister grin.

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

This cultivator named Zhang Long was at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement stage.

He possessed exceptional physical strength and was considered one of the top fighters in the outer sect of the Chiyang Sect.

Li Qian raised his chin, pointed at Lin Bai, and spoke with disdain.

"Throw this damned thing out of here."

"Remember, it's thrown."

He deliberately emphasized the word "throw".

"Yes, young master!"

Zhang Long grinned, revealing a cruel smile.

He cracked his knuckles, making a "crack crack" sound, as he walked toward Lin Bai.

"Kid, are you going to get out of here yourself, or should I help you get out?"

With each step he took, the ground trembled slightly.

A fierce aura swept over us.

Yuan Shan's heart was in his throat.

He looked at Lin Bai nervously.

He didn't know what Lin Bai would do.

Will it be like it was when it dealt with Elder Xu a month ago, using only its aura to counterattack?

Will they actually take action?

However, Lin Bai remained standing there, motionless.

Beneath the black robe, he resembled a lifeless sculpture.

Seeing that he had no reaction, Zhang Long's sinister smile grew even wider.

"What a charlatan!"
