Settle a Score First

Hua Qiang carried one in each arm as he rode out of the waves. Zhao Zhiqing immediately ran over and began stroking the two beasts incessantly, her expression one of pure bliss, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons.

"Young master, are these the cubs of the Jade Pool Golden Crystal Beast? What do you plan to do with them?"

Her eyes were full of anticipation; she was practically asking for it.

The two fluffy little animals were so adorable that they melted her heart, making her feel an irresistible itch.

Compared to Zhao Zhiqing, the other three beasts were lukewarm, even somewhat insecure.

With two more mouths to feed, we can't afford to steal their resources!

The key point is that these are two cubs. People have a natural tendency to sympathize with the weak, and such small creatures are easy to win favor with.

With its fluffy and adorable appearance, it's easy for it to win over its owner!

They couldn't possibly lower themselves to act cute and steal the spotlight from these two little ones.

Being a pet isn't easy!

Hua Qiang glanced at Zhao Zhiqing, naturally understanding her meaning; however, he himself was not so generous as to give away this Immortal Rank beast cub to someone else.

How can he face his wife and children?

How can I face my parents?

I've already made a pact with these two little ones. I'll raise them slowly for now, and they'll become bodyguards for my wife and children in the future.

"Wife... and children?"

Zhao Zhiqing's voice rose a few decibels, and her face paled.

How come he got married when he's so young?

They also had a child.

At this moment, her heart was in turmoil.

As her mission was about to be completed and the two were about to part ways, she felt very unwilling.

His eyes flickered for a moment before Wen Dao, "Young master, where are you staying now? Which sect do you belong to?"

Hua Qiang was taken aback, then said, "I am just a Rogue Cultivator and have not joined any sect."

Zhao Zhiqing's eyes immediately lit up with golden light, and she hurriedly said, "Young Master, in our Immortal Spirit Continent, the path of a rogue Rogue Cultivator is extremely difficult."

I wonder if you, young master, would be interested in conquering my Cloud Water Sect?

As Personal Disciple of the Cloud Water Sect, I can directly bring you into the sect.

Of course, you have to start as Outer Sect Disciple, but that's okay. I'll help you get into the inner sect later.

"After joining a sect, we'll have access to abundant cultivation resources, avoid many pitfalls, and most importantly, no one will dare bully us!"

Hua Qiang's heart stirred. He had just arrived in this Immortal Realm when he was captured and used as a tool, and had endured a period of hardship.

Although we have escaped, there are still dangers ahead.

If one enters a sect, then one is rooted and no longer adrift, no longer a floating duckweed.

"Hmm... I have another friend. If possible, let's bring her along too."

"No problem!"

Zhao Zhiqing patted her ample bosom as she made her promise.

Once Hua Qiang and she are in the same sect, the two of them will be close, making it easier for them to do whatever they want; everything else is minor.

"Young master, shall we set off now?"

Seeing Zhao Zhiqing's anxious look, Hua Qiang couldn't help but laugh. Was she afraid that he would run away?

"Wait a minute, I have something else to do!"

"Oh? Young master, is there anything else you need? Do you require my assistance?"

"Let's go get revenge first!"

"What? Young master has an enemy? Then this humble woman will go with you. Your enemy is my enemy!"

Hua Qiang glanced at her, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Zhao Zhiqing seemed to realize her own words, and lowered her head so low it almost disappeared into her chest, her face turning red.

Afterwards, the group boarded the broad back of the Lightning Thunder Roc and sped towards the Desolate City.

The Desolate City, the Li Family mansion.

The once majestic and solemn mansion was now shrouded in an atmosphere of oppression that was almost frozen in place.

Clan Chief Li Fengguang stood on the steps, with a group of high-ranking Li Family behind him, and then more than a hundred Li Family disciples lined up neatly behind him.

However, at this moment, their faces were as gloomy as the sky before a storm.

All eyes were fixed on the two people in front of the courtyard— Hua Qiang and Zhao Zhiqing.

The two men exuded a chilling aura, like two volcanoes about to erupt, making the Li Family members feel as if they were standing on the Abyss, trembling with fear.

Li Fengguang, as the clan leader, possessed the highest cultivation level, but he was only at the third level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Yet, the aura emanating from these two young people was in no way inferior to his.

What terrified the Li Family even more was that, just as the two were talking, Hua Qiang swung his long knife, and the tall, sturdy courtyard gate instantly turned into ruins.

Amidst the swirling dust, a thick sense of hostility permeated the air, clearly indicating an ill intent.

"Who are you? Why are you trespassing on my Li Family?"

Li Fengguang suppressed the fear and anger in his heart and Wen Dao angrily.

His voice trembled slightly in the oppressive atmosphere.

"Heh, who I am is not important. I'm here today to wipe you out."

Hua Qiang's lips curled into a cold, ruthless smile, without the slightest hesitation.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Thunderclap Blade in his hand suddenly trembled, emitting a buzzing sound, as if a demon was about to awaken and roar.

Immediately afterwards, he roared, "Annihilation Blade Domain!"

In an instant, the terrifying Blade Domain rapidly spread out from Hua Qiang's center, and the black blade energy surged like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing the entire Li Family mansion.

The dense, annihilating sword energy, like countless deadly dark blades, shot wildly towards the Li Family members.

The Li Family disciples cried out in terror, unable to mount any effective resistance, before being easily sliced in two by the blade's energy.

Heads, limbs, and chunks of flesh flew everywhere, blood splattered, and the entire mansion instantly turned into a living hell.

Li Fengguang and the other high-ranking Heavenly Immortal Realm were also panicked at this moment, but their cultivation and status made them barely hold on.

They brandished their swords and blades, their Spiritual Power surging wildly as they tried to resist the overwhelming aura of the swords.

In the face of Hua Qiang's terrifying Blade Domain, their resistance seemed so pale and powerless.

Hua Qiang's gaze was icy as he scanned everything before him, finally settling on Li Fengguang and the others.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and then he glared suddenly.

That one glance felt as if it traversed space and soul.

The Death Gaze

Li Fengguang and the others felt an invisible force instantly invade their souls, and excruciating pain struck, causing their souls to begin to shatter.

Immediately following, under the torrential rain of blade energy, their bodies were mercilessly chopped into minced meat, which dissipated into the bloody air.

The Slaughter Points notification kept popping up in Hua Qiang's mind. This heavenly voice made the corners of his mouth keep turning up, turning him into an AK47 that he couldn't suppress.

He felt he was about to level up again.

Zhao Zhiqing stood behind Hua Qiang, her mouth agape wide enough to fit two balls, and even a hint of fear showed in her eyes.

How can this man be so powerful?

There were over a hundred people, all of whom were at least at the Earth Immortal Realm, and even the higher-ups of the Li Family were all at the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

Hua Qiang wiped them all out with just one move. What kind of monster is he?
