As he spoke, Li Hongtian's foot kicked out again.
"This is for telling lies, you little bastard, this is for telling lies!"
"Who the hell are you?"
"Do I know you?"
"Do I even know you?"
In just a brief moment, Fang Jin had been stomped into looking like a pig's head by Li Hongtian, with tears and snot running down his face.
The group of elders standing nearby were in complete disarray, utterly at a loss for what to do.
Should they step in?
The man before them was the Lord of the Xining Immortal Continent.
But if they didn't intervene, their sect master would soon be stomped to death.
Finally, one of the elders mustered up the courage to speak first: "Lord, what exactly is going on here?"
"Could there be some misunderstanding?"
"Yes, yes, we're from the Great Transformation Sect. You invited us here to discuss the crystal mine matters!"
The other elders hurriedly explained.
But their words only made things worse.
If anything, Li Hongtian stomped even more viciously.
"When did I ever invite you to discuss any crystal mines?"
"Do I even know who you are?"
"What Great Transformation Sect? Never even heard of it."
"This isn't right! Could there be some mistake?" that elder couldn't help but cry out. "It was clearly your subordinate who came to notify us!"
As he spoke, his eyes darted around until he spotted the man who had come to the Great Transformation Sect to notify them. He hurriedly walked over, grabbed his hand and said, "Ask this general, he personally came to our Great Transformation Sect to inform us!"
"Did you go?"
Li Hongtian turned his glaring eyes toward the subordinate.
The subordinate straightened his body and declared firmly: "Report to the Continental Lord, no, I did not. What Great Transformation Sect? I've never even heard of it."
"Did you hear that?"
"I, Li Hongtian, have never invited you, nor do I even know who you are."
"Instead, you've barged into my Continental Lord's Manor uninvited. What punishment do you deserve?"
Li Hongtian released his aura, crushing down upon everyone present.
Feeling Li Hongtian's pressure, the elders of the Great Transformation Sect immediately fell to their knees, cold sweat streaming down their foreheads, completely at a loss for what to do.
"What, what, what is going on here?"
"Yeah, weren't we supposed to be discussing the crystal mines? How did it suddenly turn into this?"
"Can someone please tell me what's happening?"
The group of elders knelt at Li Hongtian's feet, faces filled with despair, racking their brains trying to understand how things had turned out this way.
However, in the next moment.
Their eyes widened in shock.
They watched as Li Hongtian bent his body, bowing and nodding as he approached Lu Chong.
"Oh my, Brother Lu, this is all a misunderstanding, truly a misunderstanding!"
"It's all my fault for poor management of the Continental Lord's Manor, allowing these petty individuals to barge in and offend you. I deserve death, I truly deserve death!"
As he spoke, Li Hongtian slapped himself hard across the face.
He continued: "Brother Lu, please don't take this to heart, please don't let this affect our friendship."
"These petty troublemakers, I'll punish them severely right away."
"Guards!"
He straightened up and said in a grave tone: "These people have trespassed into the Continental Lord's Manor and disturbed my honored guest. Take them away and throw them in the celestial prison."
With that, a group of guards from the Continental Lord's Manor surged forward and pinned Fang Jin and the others to the ground.
Fang Jin and his group were completely dumbfounded.
Brother Lu?
Honored guest?
Their eyes bulged, almost popping out of their heads.
What in the world was going on?
"Lord, he's just a worthless person, have you been deceived?" Fang Jin stared wide-eyed, crying out unwillingly.
"You're the worthless one, your whole family is worthless!"
Li Hongtian slapped him across the face, then stepped on Fang Jin's chest, leaning down close.
Then he transmitted his voice softly: "You blind fools, you really think he's worthless?"
"He's a master of the late-stage True Essence Immortal Realm, and he possesses a pair of top-tier immortal weapons!"
"With such a powerful master, not only did you fail to treat him with respect, you even expelled him from your sect?"
"How truly laughable!"
Li Hongtian's transmitted message fell upon Fang Jin and the others' ears.
Like a thunderbolt striking them.
Lu Chong wasn't worthless?
On the contrary, he was a late-stage True Essence Immortal Realm master with top-tier immortal weapons.
This...
How could this be possible?
Everyone stared with wide eyes, completely unwilling to accept this reality.
But the truth was right before their eyes.
They had no choice but to believe it.
Otherwise, why would Li Hongtian, the mighty Lord of the Xining Immortal Continent, be so courteous to Lu Chong?
In that moment.
They were filled with such regret their guts turned green.
Their faces were full of remorse.
They finally understood that Li Hongtian's previous willingness to cooperate with their Great Transformation Sect on the crystal mine project was likely because of Lu Chong.
And now his dramatic change in attitude toward them was also because of Lu Chong.
invincible power, Gu Changge transmigrates into a fantasy world, bound to a sign-in system that grants him cultivation rewards and various peerless treasures daily. While others struggle desperately to break through their cultivation realms, he has long since reached the pinnacle of the Great Dao, becoming a reclusive Emperor whose true strength even he himself cannot fathom. Originally planning to lie low and retire peacefully on Purple Bamboo Peak, the system suddenly issues a new task — take on disciples. With no other choice, Gu Changge casually picks up a few disciples: The eldest disciple, born with a War God Constitution, is thrown a copy of "War God Stratagems" by him, and ends up conquering the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, becoming a peerless War God who sweeps across the cosmos. The second disciple, possessing a Chaos Sword Body, can break all techniques with a single sword, his swordsmanship unmatched throughout history. He points his sword at the heavens: "My master said, the sword and the man stand together. If the sword perishes... my master will give me another one." The third disciple, a reborn Empress who returns to her throne, her elegance and grace overshadowing all beings. And without anyone noticing, his own sect, the Qingxuan Sect, has become the number one sect on the continent. Looking at these unbelievably formidable disciples, Gu Changge, holding the "Primordial Purple Qi" he just signed in for, falls into deep thought: — Wasn't this supposed to be a peaceful retirement? How did I become the ultimate master?!
