The 19th Li Clan Patriarch's face fell. Gritting his teeth, he ceased hesitating and backed up. The other four Spirit Severing Patriarchs looked at Meng Hao in shock as they, too, retreated. Along with their fellow clan members, they left the Dao Lake.
"Everything within 30,000 meters of this spot is a restricted zone," said Meng Hao slowly. "Any of you who dares to enter will be killed. By me." The Li Clan members sullenly moved to a position 30,000 meters away.
A buzz of conversation immediately rose up among the bystanders.
"Just what cultivation base does this Meng Hao have?!?!"
"He single-handedly fought the entire Black Sieve Sect before. Granted, he was defeated by Six-Daos, but according to the rumors, he's the number one figure under Dao Seeking!"
"He just killed a Third Severing expert. Calling him the number one person under Dao Seeking is definitely appropriate!"
