"Weren't you two envoys just here the day before yesterday to take a boy from my Su Household?"
When the Great Elder of the Su Household saw the two black-robed envoys, one fat and one thin, he spoke with some agitation.
"Looking for death!"
The Fat Envoy snorted coldly and struck out with one palm. Amid the terrified gazes of everyone in the Su Household, the Great Elder exploded with a bang, transforming into a cloud of blood mist.
"You!"
Seeing this, Su Heng was furious, but he swallowed the words that had reached his lips. If he spoke again now, the entire Su Household might be destroyed by these two.
Seeing that Su Heng dared to be angry but not speak, the Fat Envoy sneered. "You mortals have far too many problems. Unless I kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, you won't obey. Before tonight, your Su Household must hand over one boy and one girl. Otherwise, every one of you will die!"
The Su Household's senior members were all so enraged that their faces flushed and their necks bulged.
Yet none of them dared to utter a word of protest.
But just then.
A sudden change occurred.
Dark clouds gathered above Pingyu City.
Roars of dragons echoed through the clouds, resounding throughout Pingyu City.
Amid the dragon roars, the pedestrians in the city looked up at the sky, their expressions surging like tempest-tossed waves. "The wind follows the tiger, and the clouds follow the dragon. Could this be... nine dragons?"
"What? The legendary dragons?"
"Could it be that the Dragon Kings also dislike those Blood Refining Sect fiends and are going to wipe out the Blood Refining Sect?"
"No, look! Behind these nine Dragon Kings, there's actually a chariot—and two people are standing on it!"
"What? They're making the Dragon Kings pull a chariot?!"
"Could they be beings like immortals?!"
"Wonderful! Pingyu City is saved!"
Thus, the people of Pingyu City knelt one after another, sincerely worshiping the chariot in the sky.
At the same time, inside the Su Household's council hall.
The Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy of the Blood Refining Sect seemed to sense an inexplicable dread rising from the depths of their hearts.
After exchanging a glance, they left the Su Household estate. Then they saw nine Flood Dragons radiating divine might pulling a chariot toward the Su Household compound.
"If I'm not mistaken, those are nine Flood Dragons at the Void Immortal Stage, aren't they?" the Fat Envoy said, swallowing hard.
"You guessed correctly. They are indeed nine Flood Dragons at the Void Immortal Stage. I wonder whether the expert who can command nine Flood Dragons is merely passing through," the Thin Envoy said with a gloomy expression.
If such an expert happened to draw his sword to right a wrong and wanted to destroy the Blood Refining Sect, then forget about two Golden Core cultivators like them—even the entire Blood Refining Sect probably couldn't withstand a single breath.
The Fat Envoy smiled. "Don't worry. How could such an expert care about the ants in a tiny place like Pingyu City? Even if ten thousand people died before this senior, he would probably remain unmoved."
"House Master, look! The young lady has returned!"
Suddenly, a Su Household elder pointed at a figure on the chariot in the sky, his expression filled with excitement.
"Nán'er? Why has that girl returned?"
Upon hearing this, Su Heng hurriedly looked toward the figure on the chariot.
It really was his daughter!
But when he saw the young man beside Sū Nán, Su Heng froze. Could it be that his daughter had already joined the Dao Tian Sect and brought back reinforcements?
At the same time.
Li Zhōujūn controlled the Nine Dragon Chariot and stopped it above the Su Household compound.
Only after coming into close contact with the nine Flood Dragons did the people of the Su Household feel that bone-deep terror even more clearly. Their calves went weak.
It was simply too terrifying. Before these nine Flood Dragons, the Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy were as laughable as a joke.
"This junior, Qin Kai of the Blood Refining Sect, the Thin Envoy, pays his respects to Senior!"
At the same time, the Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy knelt down in terror and kowtowed to Li Zhōujūn on the Nine Dragon Chariot.
At that moment, the Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy were panicking.
They had just heard someone from the Su Household say that the young woman standing beside the senior on the Nine Dragon Chariot was the Su Household's daughter!
"Tell me, where is the Blood Refining Sect?"
On the Nine Dragon Chariot, Li Zhōujūn asked the Fat Envoy with a gentle smile.
"Senior, we... we can't say!"
At that moment, the Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy forced smiles more hideous than tears as they spoke to Li Zhōujūn.
The Blood Refining Sect had planted a voodoo curse in their bodies. If they mentioned the location of the Blood Refining Sect, they would die without a burial place.
The people of the Su Household saw that the formerly arrogant Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy had turned into mice before a cat upon seeing the young man beside Sū Nán. Their hearts were filled with indescribable satisfaction.
"Since you refuse to speak, don't blame me for being impolite."
Li Zhōujūn stopped asking questions. With a sweep of his wide sleeve, spiritual energy directly lifted the Fat Envoy and suspended him before Li Zhōujūn.
Then Li Zhōujūn placed his large hand directly atop the Fat Envoy's crown and began using the Soul Searching Technique.
Seeing the various bloody scenes in the Fat Envoy's memories, Li Zhōujūn's brows drew tightly together.
After obtaining what he wanted, Li Zhōujūn disdainfully tossed the Fat Envoy, who had been reduced to an idiot after the soul search, into the Su Household compound with a bang.
The Thin Envoy was already stunned by the sight. He wanted to flee, but under the gaze of the nine Flood Dragons, his calves had gone limp. How could he possibly escape?
Li Zhōujūn pointed from afar. A streak of spiritual light flew into the Thin Envoy's body. In the next moment, it directly shattered the Thin Envoy's Golden Core.
"These two have been crippled. Deal with them as you please. Consider them Li Mou's welcoming gift to the Su Household." Li Zhōujūn gave the people of the Su Household a faint smile.
As Li Zhōujūn's voice fell, a married couple rushed out from the crowd of the Su Household and dragged away the Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy.
The people of the Su Household did not stop them.
The child the Fat Envoy and Thin Envoy had taken away the day before yesterday belonged to this couple.
Before long, two heart-rending screams rang out across the entire Su Household estate.
"Many thanks to Esteemed Immortal for saving us!"
At that moment, all the people of the Su Household sincerely bowed to Li Zhōujūn, who stood with his hands behind his back atop the Nine Dragon Chariot.
"No need to thank me." Li Zhōujūn waved his hand. He then leaped down from the Nine Dragon Chariot with Sū Nán and landed in the Su Household compound.
"Go see your father," Li Zhōujūn said with a smile.
"Thank you, Master." Gratitude filled Sū Nán's eyes as she looked at Li Zhōujūn.
"Mm." Li Zhōujūn smiled.
"Dad!" Sū Nán threw herself into Su Heng's arms. When she saw the white at her father's temples, she couldn't help feeling distressed. "Your hair has all turned white."
"It's fine. Right, you girl, have you joined the Dao Tian Sect?" Su Heng patted Sū Nán's back and asked softly.
"That's right, Dad. The one who just saved our Su Household is my master!" Sū Nán composed herself and said with a smile.
"Your master is far too young!"
Su Heng was astonished. Then he grew worried. "Your master crippled the Blood Refining Sect's envoys, and your Seventh Uncle and Seventh Aunt tortured those two envoys. The Blood Refining Sect certainly won't let this go..."
Sū Nán whispered to Su Heng, "Don't worry, Dad. I'll secretly tell you—my master is the Mountain Lord of the Dao Tian Sect!"
"What?!"
After hearing Sū Nán's words, Su Heng completely lost his composure and cried out in shock.
Although he did not cultivate, he had still heard of the one hundred and eight Mountain Lords of the Dao Tian Sect.
It was said that every Mountain Lord of the Dao Tian Sect possessed the power to burn mountains and boil seas. They were true beings among the immortals!
Before such people, the Blood Refining Sect absolutely wasn't even qualified to hold their shoes!
