“Chen brother, slow down...”
Ji Jing Dan Di hurriedly spoke to dissuade him upon seeing the situation. He had already noticed that Qin Chen was harboring murderous intent, but after all, the other party was from the Xianghe Xiao family. Killing him would inevitably stir up trouble.
But it was too late; before he could finish speaking, Qin Chen had already struck down with a palm, hitting the top of the man's head hard.
Xiao Ming, in his peak state, was no match for Qin Chen, let alone in his severely injured condition. With a splatter, he let out a miserable scream, watching helplessly as Qin Chen's palm struck his head. He didn’t even have time to summon his true treasure before he turned into a corpse.
The remaining two Martial Emperors were dumbfounded upon seeing this. This was a prominent Martial God of the Xiao family, yet he was killed just like that?
In their panic, the two quickly sent out distress signals.
Qin Chen merely watched coldly, not making a move to stop them. He was here to cause trouble; if he didn’t resolve this matter, returning to Tianlei City would only bring continuous troubles. He wanted a permanent solution, to drive all the major forces out of Tianlei City.
“Ai.”
Ji Jing Dan Di sighed beside him, knowing that this matter had escalated. It was frustrating that he was also involved. However, since he had already stood on the same side as Qin Chen, he naturally wouldn’t fall out with him over such a trivial matter.
Meanwhile, Mu Han, Xu Feng, and the others were completely stunned, trembling as they said, “Senior, what are you...”
“What, are you afraid? If you are scared, you can leave now; it’s not too late.” Qin Chen glanced at the four, speaking indifferently.
Mu Han's face instantly turned red. “Senior, what are you saying? Since I, Mu Han, have followed you, I will naturally stick with you to the end.”
“We will definitely stand with you, Senior.”
Xu Feng and the others also gritted their teeth in response. As loose cultivators, they had no background; they had finally obtained an opportunity, and if they didn’t seize it, did they really want to live a mediocre life?
The calm atmosphere lasted only a moment. Soon after, swish swish swish, more than ten terrifying escape lights suddenly shot out from Tianlei City.
“Who dares to harm a member of my Xiao family? What great guts, are you tired of living?”
A furious roar reverberated through the heavens and earth. With a rumble, accompanied by the roar, an old man radiating a terrifying aura suddenly descended, his eyes flashing with fierce light.
A shocking, overwhelming terror spread out, instantly enveloping the entire entrance of Tianlei City.
The aura was so terrifying that many onlooking martial artists felt their hearts tighten and began to vomit blood, hurriedly retreating just to withstand the pressure.
When they looked up, they saw a gray-brown-haired old man accompanied by a group of people, radiating murderous intent. The terrifying aura around him formed a landscape, encompassing the sun, moon, and mountains, like a deity.
After he landed, his gaze swept across the surroundings and landed on Xiao Ming's corpse, his expression instantly froze.
“Xiao Ming!”
At this moment, the Xiao family members rushed over in anger, picking up Xiao Ming and quickly checking his condition. But soon, the person’s expression froze, their hands trembling, tears flickering in their eyes as they choked out to the leading old man, “Old Ancestor, Xiao Ming... he’s dead!”
“Who is it?”
The old man angrily questioned, crashing down like a thunderclap. Many around him groaned under the pressure, feeling suffocated, vomiting blood, and turning pale as they looked at the old man in fear.
The two Martial Emperors also rushed over in terror, trembling as they called out, “Old Ancestor, it was these people! These few were slaughtering martial artists at the entrance of Tianlei City. Previously, Lord Xiao Ming came to stop them, but he was killed as well. Please, Old Ancestor, uphold justice for Lord Xiao Ming!”
