Two figures drifted over. With a flick of his hand, Gu Tianxie froze several guards, then remained outside to stand watch while Chen Changming pushed open the door and entered.
Inside the hall, only one man sat at the table reading documents. The Green Lotus Sword Immortal was nowhere to be seen.
"Who goes there?"
The man looked up and saw a man at the tenth level of the Golden Core Realm entering. He could not help but frown.

Chen Changming slapped him unconscious, then used a soul-searching technique.
"So Sword Heavenly Venerable has broken through to the tenth level of the Nascent Soul Realm. That's why the Green Lotus Sword Immortal went to congratulate him..."
After the soul search ended, Chen Changming killed the man with a single palm strike.
