My entry can't possibly be this normal!

Li Ping'an and Jiang Tiansheng were the two most crucial figures from beginning to end in all of this.

Jiang Tiansheng constantly plotted and schemed, while Li Ping'an countered each move with his own.

However, before today, Jiang Tiansheng had always stayed behind the scenes, letting Jiang Tianting and the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce take the lead, while he himself would never make any rash moves.

But now, the time for the decisive battle has come.

Li Ping'an had only one question.

"Where are your retainers and advisors?"

"The heir of the Marquis of Wuwei is known for his public-spiritedness and has countless retainers under his wing. Why is it that at this crucial moment, not a single one of them has shown up?"

Jiang Tiansheng smiled and said, "Li Ping'an, although I value you highly and consider you my most dangerous enemy so far, I will not bet everything on this."

"Even if I lose this battle, as long as I am still alive and my disciples and advisors are still around, it will not be a defeat."

Li Ping'an understood what he meant.

"You're quite cautious."

"But for you, coming here alone, aren't you afraid of dying at my hands?"

Jiang Tiansheng paused slightly in the folding fan in his hand.

The leisurely and carefree look in his eyes suddenly transformed into a fierce and domineering one.

"That……"

"You have to be qualified first!"

Jiang Tiansheng suddenly threw the folding fan in his hand away.

boom! ! !

It shot towards Li Ping'an like a cannonball!

Li Ping'an frowned slightly; this power was simply beyond the limit...

This is something that even a cultivator at the Transcendent Realm could not accomplish.

Could it be that he is...?

Without hesitation, Li Ping'an stretched out his left hand, and the Thousand Machine Treasure Wheel between his fingers was instantly activated. The effect of the [Rebound] attribute was fully unleashed, and golden light burst forth, radiating outwards from Li Ping'an's core!

Bounce!

Everything rebounded!

Rumble!

boom! ! !

With a loud bang, the cannonball-like folding fan was violently bounced back and flew backward with a crash!

However, Jiang Tiansheng had already anticipated Li Ping'an's move. When he threw the fan, it strangely curved around the target, so even if it bounced back from Li Ping'an, it wouldn't hit him.

It's like he used Jiang Tianting to make enemies of Li Ping'an.

This is precisely his style of doing things.

boom! ! !

The folding fan slammed into the boulder beside it, piercing right through it and causing it to collapse and shatter, sending rocks tumbling down and dust flying everywhere!

And in that split second...

Jiang Tiansheng's figure had vanished!

The next instant, Li Ping'an suddenly realized...

He had somehow gotten behind him without him even realizing it!

In his hand, a sharp sword appeared, emitting faint sword light, yet it made no sound as it fiercely thrust towards him!

Although Li Ping'an frowned slightly, he did not panic. He continued to activate the Thousand Machine Treasure Wheel, and another golden light burst forth.

Bounce!

Another rebound!

boom! ! !

The force rebounded again, violently blasting Jiang Tiansheng away, but his figure vanished once more...

Li Ping'an smiled calmly: "The ability to teleport?"

"As expected of you."

"Unfortunately, even so, you will still have to bear the backlash to some extent. I want to see how long you can withstand it."

Jiang Tiansheng's face suddenly appeared in front of Li Ping'an!

Though we are worlds apart, we are so close!

Arriving in an instant!

"That depends on how long you can bounce back!"

The sword in his hand flashed and stabbed instantly, already within three feet of Li Ping'an!

Without hesitation, Li Ping'an's golden light surged once again.

"Bounce!"

Rumble!

boom! ! !

Jiang Tiansheng was blasted away again, only to vanish abruptly once more...

When he reappeared, he was pale and panting.

Li Ping'an laughed and said, "It seems your trick isn't working either."

Jiang Tiansheng gradually stopped breathing.

"Li Ping'an, your counterattack is indeed powerful, almost flawless and without any openings, however..."

“I have been watching you for far too long.”

"With the probing just now, I have finally confirmed the flaw in it."

Li Ping'an remained calm and composed, and smiled slightly.

"Oh? Tell me."

Jiang Tiansheng said, "The first time you used this move was against my second brother Jiang Tianting and Elder Jin Wuque, the Dao Forger of the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce. At that time, this move was indeed invincible. Neither Jiang Tianting nor Jin Wuque, nor their so-called elite disciples, could do anything about it. All their attacks were deflected and they were no match for it."

"When I found out, I was also very shocked. If that's the case, wouldn't you already be in an invincible position?"

"However, these people all have one thing in common."

Li Ping'an asked, "What?"

Jiang Tiansheng said, "They are all only at the Transcendent Realm, and there is not a single Celestial Realm Great Cultivator among them."

"That's true."

"Therefore, I observed carefully that the second time you launched a counterattack was when Ji Changfa, the second elder of the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce, attacked the Qingyun Sect's mountain gate."

"Although it is a barrier within the mountain gate's grand formation, not the magic weapon in your hands, the force of the rebound should be the same."

"Back then, Ji Changfa had broken through your counterattack."

Li Ping'an nodded: "That's right, he used the Gentle Breeze Dust-Sweeping Sword. That thing's attack is quite vicious, invisible and intangible, and difficult to defend against."

Jiang Tiansheng laughed and said, "That's right, but I don't think he can break the rebound so easily, because judging from the aftermath, it's very likely that you deliberately let them into the barrier."

Li Ping'an laughed too: "You really are a very thoughtful person."

"But no matter what, I already have a question in my mind: your rebounding power may not be that strong against a Celestial Realm cultivator at the Divine Power Earth Realm, at least not enough to achieve an absolute and complete rebound!"

Li Ping'an nodded: "This guess is reasonable."

Jiang Tiansheng said, "So the third time was when you went to my Marquis of Wuwei's residence to extort money..."

"Hey, why put it so harshly? It's called peaceful negotiation."

Li Pingan interrupted him.

Jiang Tiansheng wasn't angry at all. He nodded and smiled, "Alright, during the peace negotiations, in order to stop Ji Yuhuan from snatching Jiang Tianting, you once again used the force of rebound to knock her away."

"But the second time, when Father took action himself, you used your rebounding power, but you did not completely deflect his power. Instead, you were the one who was thrown back and took many steps back."

Li Ping'an sighed, "Your father, Marquis Jiang Shenwei of Wuwei, is indeed the most terrifying enemy I have ever encountered."

Jiang Tiansheng smiled and said, "He is indeed."

"However, this just confirms my guess. Your rebounding power is indeed not so effective against a great cultivator at the Divine Power Earth Realm."

"Of course, Father himself also possesses magical artifacts, and this might be due to the power of those artifacts."

Li Ping'an asked curiously, "Even you, the Marquis of Wuwei's own son and heir to the Marquis's mansion, don't know about his magic weapon?"

Jiang Tiansheng laughed and said, "You underestimate your father."

Li Ping'an remained silent and nodded.

Jiang Tiansheng said, "The last time you used the power of rebound was on the way to Qingyang City, when you fought with the fourth elder of the Nine Cauldrons Chamber of Commerce and rebounded his Heaven-Covering Divine Palm, causing him to suffer severe injuries."

"However... you yourself were also blasted away, and the recoil was extremely strong. If it weren't for Yu Ni Chang and the others working together to save you, you would probably have been seriously injured as well!"

"This is the most decisive evidence."

Li Pingan smiled and said, "So, what's your conclusion?"

Jiang Tiansheng said, "It's very simple. Your rebound is perfect and flawless against cultivators in the Transcendent Realm. However, it is much less effective against great cultivators in the Divine Power Earth Realm. Not only can it not rebound perfectly, but you also have to endure the backlash every time you rebound!"

Li Pingan couldn't help but reach out and clap his hands in admiration.

"Jiang Tiansheng, as expected of you, you are truly amazing!"

"But I have only one question: even if you deduce the correct answer, you're not a Celestial Grand Cultivator at the Divine Power Earth Realm, are you? What's the point then?"

Jiang Tiansheng smiled faintly, then stretched out his arms, his clothes suddenly fluttered without wind, and he lightly stepped on the ground. A surge of powerful and vast magical power surged out, lifting him up and soaring into the sky!

Li Ping'an's expression changed!

Jiang Tiansheng smiled calmly and said, "Who said I wasn't?"
