Chill in the Heart

Zeng Rentu stopped in his tracks.

His wide eyes filled with disbelief and unwillingness before he collapsed to the ground.

"I told you not to cause trouble, but you just wouldn't listen."

Wu Yonghong picked his ear casually and cast a dismissive glance at the fallen Zeng Rentu.

"How boring. Come on, old Wu, let's go play some chess."

Lu Qingshan stretched lazily and spoke with indifference.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

At the mention of chess, Wu Yonghong's hands immediately began to itch with anticipation. He called out, "Hey, you youngsters, find us a room with a table. This shabby place of yours is too dull."

However.

At this moment, Li Hongtian, Huang Qingtian, and the others were still in shock.

Not only had a pipe wounded Zeng Rentu, but now an ear pick had instantly killed him?

What astounded them even more was the aura emanating from that ear pick earlier...

It seemed to be a celestial-grade immortal artifact.

A celestial-grade ear pick...

The two of them remained breathless for a long while.

They finally understood the meaning behind Lu Chong's earlier warning about never provoking Human Immortals and Earth Immortals.

"What's wrong? Didn't you hear me?"

Lu Qingshan called out impatiently.

"Y-yes, we heard you."

Huang Qingtian finally snapped back to reality and responded with repeated bows, "Please wait a moment, honored elders. I'll have someone make arrangements right away."

Huang Qingtian didn't dare delay for even a second.

He quickly made the arrangements.

After settling the two elders, everyone hurried back to the scene, gathering around Zeng Rentu's corpse with grave expressions.

"Is he from an alien race?"

Li Hongtian couldn't help but ask.

Huang Qingtian shook his head, "Hard to say."

"If he really is from an alien race, this matter is extremely serious," Li Hongtian said.

"Indeed!"

Huang Qingtian nodded with a sigh. Although they hadn't lived through that era, the mere mention of alien races filled them with deep dread.

In that age.

If it weren't for some powerful human beings, the entire human race might have been extinct.

"Let's hope it's just some evil cultivation technique!"

Huang Qingtian sighed as he moved to handle Zeng Rentu's corpse.

But suddenly, a hand gripped his wrist.

At the same time.

Zeng Rentu, lying on the ground, opened his eyes with a cold expression.

"What?"

Huang Qingtian felt his scalp tingle as he hurriedly broke free and retreated.

They watched as.

Zeng Rentu, who had completely lost all signs of life moments ago, stood up covered in blood, looking terrifyingly like a walking corpse.

"I really didn't expect that old fool would actually kill me."

"But what does death matter? Now that those two old geezers aren't here, what can you weaklings possibly do to stop me?"

He laughed coldly.

In the next moment, he transformed into lightning and attacked the group.

Huang Qingtian and his companion were horrified, shouting, "Quick, go get the two Human Immortal elders!"

"Too late!"

"I have more than enough time to kill all of you before they arrive, then easily make my escape."

"As for those two old fools, I'll deal with them slowly later."

Zeng Rentu laughed maniacally.

Full of mockery.

Huang Qingtian and his companion's faces turned so dark they could drip water, their hearts heavy with concern.

Indeed.

With Zeng Rentu's current power, he could absolutely accomplish this.

However.

Just then, a calm voice rang out, reassuring Huang Qingtian and his companion: "You two step back, I'll handle him!"

"Sect Leader Jiang Zhi, you..."

The two looked at Jiang Zhi in surprise, full of doubt.

It wasn't that they looked down on Jiang Zhi, but they had clearly seen how Zeng Rentu had sent her flying with a single palm strike earlier.

Zeng Rentu also turned around, his face cold.

"Jiang Zhi, your strength doesn't even match these weaklings. What right do you have to make threats? If you're in such a hurry to die, wait your turn. After I kill these weaklings, I'll take my time settling accounts with you."

Facing their words.

Jiang Zhi merely smiled faintly, maintaining her composure.

The reason she couldn't defeat Zeng Rentu earlier was simply because she hadn't revealed her trump cards.

After all.

After her power had increased, she had wanted to test just how strong she had become.

That's why she had been caught off guard and injured by Zeng Rentu.

But this didn't mean she had no means to deal with him.

"Sect Leader Jiang Zhi, why don't you go notify the elders first? We can hold on here for a while," Huang Qingtian called out.

"Yes, Sect Leader Jiang Zhi."

Li Hongtian also quickly shouted.

Though they knew Jiang Zhi must have some abilities, they truly didn't believe she had the means to deal with Zeng Rentu at this moment.

However, Jiang Zhi didn't speak, only waved her hand.

Instantly.

More than a dozen glowing artifacts rose into the air.

Their terrifying aura, intermingled together, spread out uncontrollably.

"What?"

Li Hongtian and his companion fell to the ground in shock.

Their jaws nearly dropped to the floor.
