Demon Lord's Reincarnation

The sound of screams echoed throughout the vast territory of the Xiang Clan. There was smoke everywhere and unconscious bodies were on the ground, they were alive and breathing but it was still a nightmarish scene. Then there was a man with a vicious smile on his face that was fighting two True Monarch Realm experts with nothing but his bare hands. This was, of course, none other than Ren fighting against the elders of the Xiang Clan.

Behind Ren watching the fight was Richard Tranor and three kneeling men, Xiang Rong and his two bodyguards. At first, they thought that Ren was crazy barging into their territory without any backup or preparation. So when Ren arrived in the Xiang Clan Xiang Rong was happy to see that many of the Elders were present. Xiang Rong quickly screamed telling them that Ren was the enemy, and that was when the nightmare happened before his very eyes.

The Nascent Soul Realm fighters attacked Ren without restraint but Ren did not bother to dodge or even block the attacks, every single attack hit him but to everyone's surprise, there was no damage to him or his clothes. As the group from the Xiang Clan was confused a vicious smile appeared on Ren's face and he spoke in an excited happy tone.

"Come on then let's have some fun!"

After he was done speaking he suddenly flashed toward the nearest person and punched him. It was so sudden that the person was barely able to use a barrier to defend but it was of no use it was as if the barrier was made of clay Ren punched through it and hit the man in the abdomen.

The force Ren used was not enough to kill the other person but it was enough to make him kneel in pain. Ren wasn't planning to kill these people as they didn't really offend him it was only the stupid Xiang Rong that had offended him. Still, he was in a rather good mood so he decided to spare the life of Xiang Rong.

Ren then flashed toward another person but this time he slowed down and even telegraphed his next attack so that the other party was able to defend himself properly. This time it was a kick aimed at the neck, the other party had a sword so he used it to defend plus a barrier, but the same as before Ren's kick destroyed the barrier and broke the sword. Ren was able to kick the person's neck and knock him out.

This time before Ren could flash to another opponent the people of the Xiang Clan finally reacted and got into a formation, still this just made Ren even more excited.

"Now that's good, it won't be fun if you don't fight back with all your might!"

Various talismans, flying swords, and spells came at Ren like rain. At this level of attack, Ren had no need to block or evade since it was impossible to hurt him with this much strength, but he wanted to test out a few of the new techniques he got from his past incarnations.

Out of nowhere, the circular wall of ice appeared and blocked the incoming attacks for Ren, after blocking the attacks it then turned into a puddle of water that floated into the sky. Ren then twisted his hands and the water droplets turn into icicles that darted forward in all directions hitting some people. The icicles then slowly froze those that touched them.

Ren quickly followed up with another move as he raised his right hand the clouds became darker, he then slashed his hand downward and multiple bolts of lightning came raining down. The power of the lightning was not lethal and only burn a bit of the skin of some people.

Ren then stomped on the ground making a crack and from those cracks, numerous root-like dirt came upwards restraining some people.

'Using spells really isn't that exciting. I'll just stick with my fists for now.'

The moment Ren thought of that the space surrounding him became distorted. Ren could feel his body was actually getting hurt, this made him smile as he gathered his strength and punched forward actually breaking the space in front of him.  Two elderly men appeared in front of Ren from the broken space both of whom had shocked expressions on their faces.

"Heh, now it's getting more exciting!"

...

The two grand elders of the Xiang Clan that stayed to protect the clan were surprised that someone had actually dared to attack their clan. Not only did he attack head-on he was fighting by himself, he did not even bother using the young master as a hostage, but after a while, they figured out why the intruder didn't care, it was because he was that strong.

Seeing the others being beaten one-sidedly the two grand elders at the True Monarch Realm finally made a move. They used a surprise attack to finish the fight quickly but the young man was able to deal with it quite easily which surprised the two grand elders. After that, they tried different kinds of attacks but the young man crushed all their moves with nothing but his bare fists.

Distorting space, controlling the opponent's time, and attacking the soul, all of their attempts ended in failure. Ren was too strong for them, it seems that the only reason they were able to last so long was simply because Ren allowed it.

Ren in simple terms was playing with them, wanting to see what other moves they had. The two grand elders could not understand why he was doing this so when they asked, Ren actually stopped and pointed at Xiang Rong.

"This young master of yours provoked me numerous times despite me saying if he did anything I would break your clan."

The two elders looked at their young master who was on the ground kneeling while shivering and sighed. It was as expected they already knew that their young master was such an arrogant fellow and he would eventually provoke someone that they couldn't afford to provoke. They remembered when some of the elders voiced their concerns to the patriarch.

"It doesn't matter if my son is arrogant or not, he has the right to be so." That was what the patriarch answered, not even bothering to discipline his son.

"If we apologize now will you stop?"

"I think you know we've already way past apologies now!" Ren charged at them, seeing this and hearing what was said the two grand elders could only do their best.

...

Xiang Rong watched the entire scene while trembling in fear, he had hoped that the two grand elders would be able to defeat Ren but the more he watched the more fearful he became. The two Grand Elders were not able to do anything at all, no matter what they did Ren responded with pure brute force to solve all attacks.

It was only at the moment when he saw Ren beating up the two Grand Elders that he understood he had truly provoked someone that he could not afford to provoke. Despite not killing anyone, and only destroying a few buildings this was enough to decrease the fighting power of the Xiang Clan.

Xiang Rong then saw Ren slowly approach him with that vicious smile on his face, no longer able to hold it in Xiang Rong actually soiled himself in fear. Seeing what happened Ren shook his head and sighed.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'm just here to thank you for the great after-meal exercise." After he said those words Ren left with Richard. While watching Ren and Richard's fading backs Xiang Rong fainted, the screams of his clansmen the last thing he heard.
