Though inwardly delighted, Gu Qingfeng showed no trace of joy on his face, lest Yuwen Xiong grow arrogant.
"Kekeke... A mere speck of light dares compete with the brilliance of the full moon? A puny Golden Immortal at the peak realm—today, this Emperor will teach you the meaning of 'there is always someone greater beyond the heavens!'"
Demonic laughter rolled like thunder, echoing throughout the entire Seven Stars Immortal City.
Gu Qingfeng's body blazed with demonic flames as he spoke. At the same time, the Immortal King Divine Cauldron came crashing down to suppress him.
Yet, he merely extended a single finger—a jade-white finger shimmering with the essence of the Dao—to meet the cauldron's descent.
The immortals below were stunned.
"He's using just one finger to counter Yuwen Xiong's attack!"
"Even a Great Luo Golden Immortal wouldn’t dare be so reckless!"
Yuwen Xiong's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Enraged by such contempt, he poured even more power into his strike.
"Die!!"
BOOM—!
The Immortal King Divine Cauldron slammed down with devastating force—yet, bizarrely, it stopped halfway, unable to descend further.
A single finger now rested atop the cauldron.
Like an ant's antenna holding back an elephant's crushing foot, that finger halted the cauldron's momentum completely.
The entire Seven Stars Immortal City erupted in shock.
The scene was too staggering—how could a mere finger stop the Immortal King Divine Cauldron? Just who was this man?!
"Impossible! Are you a Great Luo Golden Immortal?!" Yuwen Xiong's face twisted in disbelief. He had unleashed his full strength, yet his attack was blocked by a single finger.
His body surged with immortal light, veins bulging as he strained with all his might—yet the cauldron refused to budge.
Was he forced to use his trump card already?
Yuwen Xiong's expression darkened. His trump card was meant for rival Immortal King successors, not to be recklessly exposed in public.
As he hesitated, murmurs from the crowd reached his ears.
"Seven Stars Immortal City truly hides dragons and crouching tigers—a random passerby can easily block Yuwen Xiong!"
"Who is this man? I’ve never heard of him before. To debut like this, he must be deliberately provoking Yuwen Xiong—clearly trying to rise to fame by stepping on him!"
Yuwen Xiong’s face twisted with fury. Proud as he was, how could he tolerate being someone else’s stepping stone? He immediately prepared to unleash his trump card.
His eyes suddenly glowed—twin pupils appeared within them, spinning wildly.
Gu Qingfeng noticed the change and grinned in delight.
He knew this move well!
Back when Divine Martial Marquis hunted him down, he had hidden deep within the starry river—yet the Marquis pierced through with this very technique, nearly adding another attribute to his demise.
What he failed to collect back then, Yuwen Xiong would repay today!
But just as Gu Qingfeng reveled in excitement—
A deep, aged voice suddenly echoed from the depths of the treasure ship:
"Xiong’er, your trump card is not for use here. Stand down."
"Uncle! I—!"
Yuwen Xiong’s face twisted with unwillingness.
Uncle?!
The moment Gu Qingfeng heard the word, his spirits soared. He immediately taunted, "Brat, scram and call your elders out!"
"You bastard! I’ll kill you!" Yuwen Xiong’s twin pupils flared with light.
But before he could act, a massive hand reached out from the treasure ship, seizing him and dragging him back.
"Uncle! Let me go! Let me go! I must kill him!"
No one paid him any heed.
Then, a white-haired elder abruptly appeared in the void, his murky eyes fixed on Gu Qingfeng.
"It’s Yuwen Bo, an elder of the Twin-Pupil Clan!"
"To think he’s acting as Yuwen Xiong’s guardian—this man is a renowned Great Luo Golden Immortal!"
"This shows just how much the Twin-Pupil Clan values Yuwen Xiong!"
Gasps arose from those who recognized Yuwen Bo.
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng’s heart swelled with excitement.
A Great Luo Golden Immortal?
Today, this Emperor will ascend to Great Luo!
Suddenly, the white-haired Yuwen Bo spoke.
"You are... unusual."
His voice was hoarse and aged.
"I can sense the vast mana within you, as well as your formidable physique. Yet your realm is not that of an immortal. To think a mortal could rival a Golden Immortal—truly inconceivable."
"Barking like a dog?"
Gu Qingfeng sneered impatiently. He hated chatterboxes—he preferred those who acted.
The elder froze.
Never had he imagined a youth could be so disrespectful.
The entire Seven Stars Immortal City fell silent.
"D-did he just say Yuwen Bo was... barking like a dog?!"
"Am I hearing things? He openly insulted a Great Luo Golden Immortal?!"
"Is he an Immortal King? Who else in this world would dare humiliate a Great Luo Golden Immortal like this?!"
......
Within the palace of the Seven Stars Ancient Kingdom—
King Gu Ruochen and his court were equally stunned by Gu Qingfeng’s audacity.
Did this man have no fear of death?
At that moment, Gu Ling’er urgently pleaded, "Father, we must save him! He preserved the dignity of our kingdom—we cannot let him die!"
Before Gu Ruochen could respond, a prince stood and argued, "Father, we must not intervene! We didn’t send him—he acted on his own. Why should we risk ourselves for him?
"Moreover, he has already provoked the Twin-Pupil Clan. Our priority now is to distance ourselves, lest we incur their wrath!"
Gu Ling’er stared in disbelief. Was this her brother? To speak such ungrateful words about their benefactor!
Gu Ruochen hesitated.
Gu Ling’er angrily countered, "Father! Regardless of his motives, he did protect the kingdom’s honor. If we cower now, what will the world think of us? What will our people think?
"Earlier, it was a dispute among juniors—you couldn’t interfere. But now, they’ve broken the rules by sending a Great Luo Golden Immortal. Will you still stand by?
"Haven’t we suffered enough humiliation from these so-called Immortal King factions?!"
Gu Ruochen’s eyes flickered before hardening with resolve.
......
"Young man, do you know what you face?" Yuwen Bo asked calmly, his voice devoid of anger.
"Old fool, do you know what you face?" Gu Qingfeng grinned savagely.
"Young man, your uniqueness grants you power beyond a Golden Immortal. But without ascending to Great Luo, you remain an ant."
"Kekeke..." Gu Qingfeng threw his head back in laughter, then glared down at Yuwen Bo and declared, word by word:
"Old fool, today, this Emperor will teach you...
"Even after ascending to Great Luo—you’re still an ant!!"
ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan, with his golden finger, is reborn and returns to the day of his wedding to the treacherous woman. Su Qiang comes to steal the bride.

"Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
