"Who are you? How dare you meddle in our affairs! Do you know who I am?"
Facing Su Ming, the black-robed old man forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and shouted with false bravado.
He brought up his backer, attempting to intimidate his opponent.
"I am the Purple Mansion Immortal Envoy under East King Duke! If you withdraw today, I can pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, if you make an enemy of me and East King Duke of the Purple Mansion, then no matter how vast the Primordial Wilderness is, you will have nowhere to stand!"
East King Duke was a famous veteran powerhouse of the Primordial Wilderness.
He was of the same generation as the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and the others.
He believed that in the Primordial Wilderness, no one would dare refuse to show East King Duke proper respect.
"Purple Mansion? East King Duke?"
Su Ming's expression remained utterly unmoved. Instead, he looked as though he had heard some kind of joke.
He could not even be bothered to recall who East King Duke was.
"Annoying."
Su Ming calmly spat out two words.
Before his voice had even faded, he raised his hand.
The enormous hand that had just crushed the Heaven Swallowing Demonic Bottle appeared once more. It blotted out the sky and sun, carrying a terrifying pressure that crushed through the ages and annihilated all things as it slammed down on the black-robed old man!
"No! You can't kill me! East King Duke won't let you off!"
The black-robed old man sensed the aura of death. The color drained from his face, and he let out a hysterical scream.
He desperately drove every bit of magic power within him into action. The law power of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal surged wildly as he tried to resist and even attempted to flee.
However, beneath that enormous hand, everything was futile.
Space was completely sealed, and the laws were utterly suppressed.
The Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation he had always been proud of was as fragile as an ant before that hand.
Boom—!
The enormous hand descended. There was no earth-shaking explosion, only a deep, muffled crash.
The black-robed old man, along with the entire stretch of space he occupied, was directly crushed into nothingness by that palm.
His body and spirit were annihilated, leaving not even the slightest trace behind.
The entire valley fell deathly silent.
Below, Kong Xuan and Golden-Winged Great Peng had just caught their breath. They stared blankly at the scene, their minds completely blank.
That had been a Grand Unity Golden Immortal!
A terrifying existence that had left the two brothers utterly helpless even when they joined forces!
Yet before this mysterious young man, he had not even been able to withstand a single move. He had been casually slapped to death like a fly?
This... what level of existence was he, exactly?
They could not even imagine what kind of terrifying strength was required to accomplish such a feat.
Shock!
Unparalleled shock!
After a long while, Kong Xuan was the first to recover. He struggled to his feet and respectfully bowed deeply toward Su Ming in the sky.
"Junior Kong Xuan thanks Senior for saving my life!"
His voice was filled with heartfelt awe. His innate pride had been utterly shattered before absolute strength.
Beside him, Golden-Winged Great Peng hurriedly transformed into human form and followed his elder brother's example, bowing deeply.
"Junior Golden Peng thanks Senior for saving my life!"
Although he had a hot temper, he was not an ungrateful fool. The person before them was a truly peerless powerhouse who reached the heavens and earth!
Su Ming's figure slowly descended from the sky and landed before them.
An invisible, gentle force held them up, sparing them the need for such elaborate courtesy.
"It was nothing more than a minor effort." Su Ming's voice was calm. "Judging by your origins, you do not seem like ordinary demonkind. Why were you pursued here by such trash?"
Upon hearing Su Ming's question, a bitter look appeared on Kong Xuan's face.
He did not dare conceal anything and recounted the entire matter from beginning to end.
"Senior, my brother and I were born from the nurturing of Heaven and Earth, and we only recently took human form. Unexpectedly, while taking form, we accidentally triggered an ancient restriction in the place where we were born, causing a heavenly phenomenon. That was how our whereabouts were exposed and we caught the attention of that fiend."
So that was how it was.
The two brothers really had been unlucky, encountering a formidable enemy right after emerging into the world.
He noticed that when Kong Xuan and Golden Peng answered his question, their eyes held not only awe but also a trace of undisguised nervousness and fear.
Clearly, although his Thunderous Might palm had saved them, it had also frightened them.
They were probably worried that he had driven away a wolf only for a tiger to arrive.
Su Ming could not help smiling inwardly. He spoke to reassure them, "You need not be nervous. I am not on the same side as that fiend, and I bear you no ill will."
Hearing this, Kong Xuan and Golden Peng visibly relaxed, though the wariness in their eyes did not completely disappear.
After all, in the Primordial Wilderness, hearts were treacherous and the strong were revered. Who could guarantee that a terrifying existence who had just casually slapped a Grand Unity Golden Immortal to death truly had no designs on them?
Su Ming took in their expressions, his thoughts spinning rapidly.
Kong Xuan possessed the Five-Colored Divine Light, which could brush away anything. In the future, he would be the strongest beneath the Saints.
Golden-Winged Great Peng possessed unmatched speed, and his battle prowess was equally formidable.
With such talent and such origins, it would be a pity to let them wander through the Primordial Wilderness on their own.
More importantly, the conflict between the Wu Clan and the Demon Court had already begun to emerge. Although the Wu Clan was powerful, its peak combat strength ultimately consisted only of the Twelve Ancestral Magi and himself.
The demonkind, however, had Di Jun and Tai Yi, the Ten Demon Saints, and countless Demon Gods at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.
If he could take these two brothers under his command and carefully nurture them, they would surely become two pillars supporting the heavens for the Wu Clan in the future!
He could both strengthen his own forces and earn them an enormous favor, making them wholeheartedly submit to him.
It would be killing two birds with one stone!
With that thought, Su Ming no longer hesitated.
He looked at the two future powerhouses before him, whose expressions were uneasy, and the corners of his lips curved into a meaningful smile.
Rather than let them remain suspicious and uneasy, he might as well give them a choice they could not refuse.
"Judging by your appearance, it seems you have nowhere to go in this Primordial Wilderness, nor do you have a sect to protect you."
Su Ming's words hit the nail on the head, directly striking the sore spot of the two brothers.
They were proud and unwilling to submit beneath the Demon Court, but in this vast Primordial Wilderness, every step was difficult without a backer.
The black-robed old man, a powerhouse of the Purple Mansion, was the best proof of that.
Seeing the two remain silent, Su Ming continued, his voice calm but carrying an unquestionable majesty.
"I find your talents acceptable. Would you be willing to enter my sect and become my disciples?"
What?!
Take them as disciples?
Kong Xuan and Golden-Winged Great Peng abruptly raised their heads, their eyes filled with astonishment.
Happiness had come too suddenly, leaving them unable to react for a moment.
Become disciples of a terrifying existence who could casually slap a Grand Unity Golden Immortal to death?
What an enormous opportunity this was!
Golden-Winged Great Peng had the most impatient temperament and was almost about to hurriedly kneel and acknowledge him as his master.
But Kong Xuan was steadier. Forcing down the excitement in his heart, he respectfully asked, "May I ask Senior's honored name? Might I know which great powerhouse you are?"
Becoming someone's disciple was a momentous matter. They had to know their master's name and origins.
Su Ming looked at them with an indifferent expression and slowly uttered a title that would shake the entire Primordial Wilderness.
"I am a True Descendant of Pangu, the Great Venerable of the Wu Clan, Su Ming."
True Descendant of Pangu!
The Wu Clan!
The Great Venerable!
Each word was like a bolt of Chaos Divine Thunder, striking Kong Xuan and Golden-Winged Great Peng heavily in their hearts and making their primordial spirits roar as dizziness swept over them!
Pangu! He was the Father God who had split the sky and earth apart! The source of all things!
The Wu Clan! They had been transformed from Pangu Essence Blood and were now the absolute rulers of the land!
As for the title Great Venerable, although they had only just emerged into the world, they had still heard of it!
Within the Wu Clan, his status surpassed that of the Twelve Ancestral Magi. He was the supreme existence of the Wu Clan!
This unfathomable Senior before them was actually that legendary supreme existence who ruled the entire Wu Clan?!
Shock! Astonishment! Ecstasy!
They finally understood why he had been able to erase a Grand Unity Golden Immortal so easily!
They also finally understood why he had not taken East King Duke or the Purple Mansion seriously at all!
