"Perhaps he was overwhelmed by hatred."
Lu Chong said indifferently.
"My old friend told me the same thing. He just mentioned it casually, like sharing an amusing anecdote, but the key point is that he also laughed and mentioned that Jiang Zhi brought back two Human Immortals..."
Upon hearing this.
Lu Chong paused his hand that was scrubbing the toilet, "Go on."
"Initially, I just took it as a joke, but you mentioned to me a couple of days ago not to provoke Human Immortals or Earth Immortals, so I came to consult you, is there something fishy about this?" Li Hongtian continued.
"Are you sure there were two Human Immortals?"
Lu Chong asked.
"My old friend said so."
Li Hongtian replied.
Lu Chong's eyebrows twitched slightly.
After finishing the toilet he was cleaning, he stood up and walked towards the side hall.
Li Hongtian hurried to follow.
"Ah, nephew, are you leaving?"
In the side hall, Gong Chen walked out with a smile.
"Uncle, do you know a person named Jiang Zhi?" Lu Chong couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, I led her to the Master's place." Gong Chen smiled, "Speaking of which, Jiang Zhi has made great strides now. Not only was she entrusted by the Master to guard the teleportation portal, but she was also specially assigned two Human Immortal elders to assist her."
"It's truly enviable, some people just have all the luck!"
"Why the sudden interest in her?"
Gong Chen looked puzzled.
He then turned his gaze to Li Hongtian and asked, "And you, why are you trembling?"
"Uh, I... I..."
Li Hongtian shivered all over, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
He stuttered and recounted the incident to Gong Chen.
"Oh."
"What a coincidence."
Gong Chen stroked his beard and said lightly, "Cut ties with your friend as soon as possible. He's done for."
"Do it quickly."
"Or you'll be done too."
Li Hongtian shivered in fear but couldn't help asking, "Is there no room for negotiation?"
"There is!"
Gong Chen replied.
"What is it?"
Li Hongtian's eyes lit up.
"Tell your friend to elevate five major realms within a few days. That might barely save him." Gong Chen said.
This made Li Hongtian shiver.
Elevate five major realms in a few days?
Just to barely escape?
This is absurd.
He fell to his knees before Gong Chen and Lu Chong.
"Honorable elders, to be honest, Huang Qingtian of the Desolate Immortal Continent once saved my life."
"By rights, I should cut ties with him as soon as possible when faced with such a situation."
"But if I abandon my savior, what difference would there be between me and an animal?"
Li Hongtian knelt on the ground, speaking sincerely, "So please, both of you, give me some advice to save my friend's life."
Seeing Li Hongtian on the ground.
Both Lu Chong and Gong Chen were a bit surprised.
Over the past few days, despite Li Hongtian's politeness and keen sense, they had looked down on him.
Until this moment.
They held Li Hongtian in higher regard.
"Alright, we'll accompany you on this journey!"
After exchanging a glance, Gong Chen waved his hand and said.
After all, they also considered that in the future, the Great Transformation Sect led by Lu Chong might need Li Hongtian's assistance.
Upon hearing this, Li Hongtian's eyes lit up, and he quickly kowtowed in gratitude, "Thank you, both elders."
After a simple preparation.
The three of them set off directly for the Eternal Immortal Continent.
They flew across the sky.
A few days later.
They arrived in the Eternal Immortal Continent.
Having been informed of Li Hongtian's arrival, Huang Qingtian was already waiting to greet them.
"Haha, Lao Li, it's been over a hundred years, hasn't it!"
Huang Qingtian walked over with a beaming smile.
But Li Hongtian did not show any joy at the reunion, instead saying coldly, "Lao Huang, have you confronted Jiang Zhi and the others yet?"
"Of course not."
Huang Qingtian smiled, "I heard the news, they haven't arrived yet."
Upon hearing this.
Li Hongtian finally relaxed.
They had arrived in time.
It seemed his old friend still had a chance.
"Hey Lao Li, this is just a matter of a little girl from the Reincarnation Mirror Realm, why are you so concerned?" Huang Qingtian couldn't help but ask, "You even warned me in the jade slip not to touch this girl, what's the matter?"
"Let's talk inside."
Li Hongtian said with a serious expression.
Huang Qingtian nodded and led Li Hongtian and the others inside.
"Come, serve the banquet."
Huang Qingtian waved his hand and called out.
"No need."
Li Hongtian directly waved his hand to stop it, saying, "Let's talk about the important matter first."
"What's going on, why so serious?"
Huang Qingtian couldn't help but laugh and ask.
Li Hongtian remained serious, looking at Huang Qingtian and said earnestly, "Act quickly, and bring your son-in-law here after crippling him!"

Upon hearing this.
Huang Qingtian was instantly dumbfounded.
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."

From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
