2521 Difficult To Deal With

"You're the patriarch of the Garnier family, right?" Duan Ling Tian looked at Dahl whom he was carrying like a bag of trash indifferently. He said calmly, "You can finish issuing your order now. I'd like to experience the might of the Disaster-level Battleships." Then, he turned to look at the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships.

Duan Ling Tian's words caused Dahl and the illustrious members of the Garnier family's expressions to turn unsightly. Similar to Dahl, the members of the Garnier family had also realized they had bitten off more than they could chew. Their expressions remained dark as they discussed the purple-clad young man who looked like the God of War.

"Can anyone tell me… Who's this cultivator?"

"This cultivator is definitely stronger than a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! A Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestial would not have survived an explosion like that unscathed!"

"Why is the Garnier family so unlucky to have provoked such a terrifying person? After all, Four Bodiless Celestials or those who are stronger are extremely rare in the entire Coste Galaxy."

"Our Garnier family has a record of all the Four Bodiless Celestials in more than ten galaxies around our Coste Galaxy… However, there's no mention of these people!"

"If they're among the Four Bodiless Celestials in our records, we wouldn't have provoked them, let alone send out the Disaster-level Battleships!"

"Even if he's only a Four Bodiless Celestial, he's entirely capable of forcing our seventeen Disaster-level Battleships to retreat. At most, he would be heavily injured. It's impossible for us to kill him!"

"If he's a Five Bodiless Celestial, our Garnier family's seventeen Disaster-level Battleships would only be able to inflict small injuries on him. Moreover, he would only risk injuries if he decides to destroy our seventeen disaster-level Battleships!"

"Our Garnier family cannot afford to offend this man!"

The high-ranking officials of the Garnier family, with the exception of their patriarch, Dahl, who was captured by Duan Ling Tian, quickly held an emergency meeting using their communication devices. After a while, they reached the consensus that they could not afford to offend Duan Ling Tian!

"If the Garnier family survives this calamity, I'll retire and longer intervene with matters regarding the family," the Garnier family's Grand Elder said in a somber voice. He was the one who suggested making a great fanfare out of these two cultivators' execution after all. He had to shoulder this responsibility.

It did not take long before Dahl received messages through his implanted microchip.

"Patriarch, the conclusion of this emergency family meeting is that the purple-clad young man is a Four or possibly Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. We can't afford to provoke him!"

"We have to obtain his forgiveness no matter what the price is!"

"Surrender?" Duan Ling Tian furrowed his brow when he heard this. "Based on your words, you've decided against ordering the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships to open fire on me?"

"I don't dare! I don't dare!" Dahl lowered his head even more, looking nervous and worried. He only felt regretful when he recalled his decision that led him here. Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world. He could only try to reduce the losses the Garnier family would suffer as much as he possibly could. For this reason, he surrendered even though it meant he would humiliate himself in front of everyone in the Coste Galaxy.

...

Meanwhile, the inhabitants of the Coste Galaxy who were watching the projections were dumbfounded.

"What… What's this?"

"The Garnier family's patriarch is surrendering?"

What a joke! The Garnier family was one of the three most powerful families in the Coste Galaxy. They had always behaved ruthlessly and arrogantly! No forces in the Coste Galaxy dared to oppose them due to this reason. However, currently, the high and mighty patriarch of the Garnier family was lowering his head to a cultivator!

"Since the patriarch of the Garnier family has lowered his head, this means the entire Garnier family is lowering their heads as well."

"It seems like the Garnier family doesn't want to offend this purple-clad young man!"

"This is as expected. Didn't you see the power that the purple-clad young man displayed earlier? He's definitely stronger than a Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. He's probably a Four or Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial."

"Four or Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?"

"No wonder. The Garnier family definitely doesn't have the courage to offend Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials or those who are stronger!"

The inhabitants of the Coste Galaxy had the same thoughts as the members of the Garnier family. After all, they knew what Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials or those who were stronger were capable of. Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials could not be killed by Disaster-level Battleships, let alone those who had successfully passed more than four tribulations! When they thought about this, they did not dare to laugh at the Garnier family. After all, they knew if they were in Dahl's shoes, they would have reacted in the same way as well.

…

Meanwhile, the two elite families in the Coste Galaxy were delighting in the Garnier family's misfortune. They hoped the purple-clad young man would kill Dahl and destroy the Garnier family.

Someone laughed. "The Garnier family has bitten off more than they can chew this time!"

"Hopefully this expert will destroy the Garnier family in his anger… This way, we'll have one less rival!"

…

Duan Ling Tian looked at Dahl whose head was lowered as he said indifferently, "I'll give you another chance. I'll give you five breaths to tell the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships to fire at me. Otherwise, not only will I kill you, I'll destroy the Garnier family as well."

One breath passed. "You only have four breaths left to make a choice."

Duan Ling Tian's voice echoed in Dahl's ears and caused the expressions of the members of the Garnier family to change.

...

Duan Ling Tian's words echoed in the ears of every inhabitant in the Coste Galaxy as well. All of them broke into an uproar again.

"Mad man! Mad man!"

"He has to be stronger than a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so confident and ask the patriarch of the Garnier family to order the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships to fire at him!"

"That's true. This means he's probably a Five Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, right?"

…

Duan Ling Tian's words caused the members of the Garnier family to panic. They could not figure out Duan Ling Tian's intention.

"What on earth is he trying to do?!"

"What's he trying to do? Is he a masochist?"

…

The two elite families in the Coste Galaxy discussed this among themselves excitedly.

"This cultivator is very confident… It looks like he's not just a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!"

"Hopefully this cultivator will destroy the Garnier family's seventeen Disaster-level Battleships! At that time, the Garnier family will no longer be one of the three great Families in the Coste Galaxy. There would only be two great families in the Coste Galaxy!"

…

Dahl looked at Duan Ling Tian as he said tentatively, "Sir…"

"One more breath left."

Dahl felt as though a bucket of ice had been poured down his shirt when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words. He no longer dared to dally and quickly issued an order to the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships to open fire on Duan Ling Tian. He had to disregard the fact that he was firmly caught in Duan Ling Tian's hands at this moment. He did not want to think about the fact that he was also in the firing range of the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships!

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

As soon as the people in the seventeen Disaster-level Battleships received the order...

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Laser blasts, electromagnetic blasts, ultra-nuclear warheads, and other similar sophisticated weapons from the Coste Galaxy were fired at Duan Ling Tian!
