None Shall Be Spared Who Stand in the Way of My Vengeance

"Attack! Kill him! No matter how strong he is, he's only one man!"

"There are so many of us—we can surround him to death!"

"Attack! Kill him, seize the Immortal Arts, and make a name for ourselves!"

"Kill!"

Amid furious roars, everyone charged forward, surrounding Zhuge Feng.

Boom~!

Boom boom...

Terrifying spiritual energy surged wildly, sweeping across the entire scene.

In an instant, wood chips flew everywhere and dust rose into the air.

In the cultivation world, the strong reigned supreme. Thus, these wealthy merchants and political dignitaries understood that while money was important, it also needed strength to protect it.

That was why they had all cultivated the Immortal Arts themselves, even if those arts had been bought on the black market and were utter trash.

Yet they were wealthy. They could spend money at sects to buy pills and accelerate their cultivation, and they had cultivated for quite some time, so time alone had ground out some cultivation for them.

Therefore, these people all possessed cultivation. Several of the stronger ones had even reached Fourth-Level Qi Refinement, just like Ouyang Shuai!

Some others had low cultivation, only at the first or second level, but whenever they traveled, they paid heavily to hire sect disciples as guards!

As a result, every one of the dozens of people present possessed some degree of cultivation!

There were even guards who had not entered the estate. Hearing the commotion now, they hurried over.

Bang bang bang!

A series of violent impacts rang out. Zhuge Feng shifted his feet, turning into an afterimage as he charged straight into the crowd.

With every punch, someone let out a miserable cry and was sent flying.

Bang bang bang!

In what seemed like an instant, three guards were knocked to the ground by Zhuge Feng, blood spilling from their mouths.

He planted a foot on the chest of the person nearest to him and spoke coldly.

"No one reached out to avenge my parents. Then I'll collect that debt with my own hands!"

With that, he threw another punch into another man's chest, shattering his ribs and making him vomit blood before he completely passed out.

"None who stand in the way of my vengeance shall be spared!"

Zhuge Feng swept his gaze across the entire scene and spoke flatly.

"Kill!"

With a furious roar, everyone charged at Zhuge Feng together.

Their eyes had already gone red, and they became even more frenzied.

The stronger Zhuge Feng was, the more heaven-defying his Immortal Arts must be—and the richer their rewards would become!

At this point, there was no longer any talk of grudges or hatred. There was only a glint of madness in their eyes.

Kill him!

Seize the Immortal Arts!

Kill!

This thought grew wildly in everyone's mind, intensifying more and more!

Until everyone had forgotten how to think. None of them noticed that the instigator was quietly hiding in a corner of the crowd, avoiding battle.

Ouyang Shuai hid at the very back of the crowd. Watching the chaotic scene, an insidious smile curled across his lips.

"Kill, kill. The happier you kill, the better!"

"If you truly kill this brat, do you think you'll get the Immortal Arts?"

"If this brat kills you, then all your assets will be swallowed up by this old man!"

Ouyang Shuai was incomparably excited, and his gaze became increasingly vicious!

In his eyes, no matter what outcome emerged, he would be the only winner!

And all he had to do now was wait!

Wait for Zhuge Feng to be killed by these people, or for these people to be killed by Zhuge Feng!

At this moment, his heart surged with excitement. He felt that the summit he had dreamed of was already very close!

All he needed was to add fuel to the fire one more time!

Heavenly Dao Sect.

Early in the morning, long lines had already formed at the mountain gate, waiting for the assessment to begin.

The fame of Heavenly Dao Sect had spread from one to ten, from ten to a hundred, drawing more and more people.

A newly risen Nascent Soul-level force!

If they joined early, they would become founding-level disciples!

"Hehe, I knew at the Hundred Sects Assembly a month ago that this Heavenly Dao Sect had an extraordinary future and would surely soar to great heights. It's just that thirty taels of silver a month was too expensive."

"Tch, that wasn't what you said back then. Out of all of us, you were the one who disparaged Heavenly Dao Sect the most, alright?"

"Joining the sect is free? Immortal Arts up to Ninth-Level Qi Refinement are all free? Is that real? Thirty taels of silver a month is nothing—in other sects, you couldn't even buy the first level of the Immortal Arts!"

"It's just that this Heavenly Stairway is too difficult. I've only climbed a dozen or so steps after two days. It would be great if I could spend money to buy a spot in the sect."

"Huh??? You think having money makes you so great? The entry fees of those great sects have been spoiled by people like you, and their prices rise year after year!"

"Holy shit, there's no age limit for the assessment? For real? Other sects only accept those under twenty, saying that Root Bone becomes fixed with age. This is heaven-defying—quick, call my old grandpa over!"

Everyone talked at once, all discussing Heavenly Dao Sect.

Xiao Yan checked the time and shouted, "The assessment begins!"

The moment his words fell, the crowd at the mountain gate stopped talking and rushed up the steps, like people sprinting toward the cafeteria in a hundred-meter dash when mealtime arrived.

At the mountain summit, Su Bai had nothing better to do, so he opened the points shop and checked the details of the items his disciples had exchanged over the past few days.

Mu Lingxian: Fire Control Art, Qi Refining Pill

Ye Qingyao: Qi Refining Pill

Xiao Yan: Body-Tempering Pill, Blood-Qi Pill

Xiao Lingxi: Wind-Chasing Sword Technique, Qi Refining Pill

Zhuge Feng: Dog-Beating Staff Technique, Qi Refining Pill, Blood-Qi Pill, Qi-Replenishing Pill, Explosive Qi Pill!

As he read down the list, Su Bai's expression changed slightly when his gaze settled on the Explosive Qi Pill.

Explosive Qi Pill: Temporarily stimulated potential to increase strength in the Qi Refining Realm tenfold. Price: 10 points.

"This kid took leave, so be it—but why did he exchange for a pill that burns potential to increase his strength?"

"Looks like he must have some enemy or crisis!"

Su Bai pondered this, his gaze turning toward his own points shop.

Instant Teleportation Talisman: Could ignore distance and teleport to one's disciple's side. Price: 100 points.

Yellow Earth Town, Ouyang Estate.

Spiritual energy crisscrossed the air. Shouts of killing, explosions, screams, and furious curses intertwined into a single din.

Outside, a crowd watched Ouyang Estate, but no one dared approach, afraid of being caught in the chaos and killed.

Inside the estate, Zhuge Feng was like a god of war. Wielding a great iron staff, he knocked down one assailant after another.

Bang bang!

As his arms swung, he unleashed the Dog-Beating Staff Technique. The air exploded again and again, like rolling thunder.

One person after another was sent flying from his side, smashing through house walls and falling into the dust.

Other than a few buildings in the distance, the entire Ouyang Estate had been destroyed, leaving devastation everywhere.

Yet it seemed that none of this was over. Instead, it only grew more intense.

All Zhuge Feng could see in his mind were the scenes of his parents being beaten to death!

Everything made the hatred in his heart boil, and murderous intent filled his mind.

Everyone who had harmed his parents deserved to die!

At this moment, no one could stop him!

Even Fourth-Level Qi Refinement cultivators could not withstand a single blow from Zhuge Feng's iron staff; their weapons shattered along with them.

A moment later, almost no one in the entire courtyard remained standing!

Nearly a hundred people had joined forces, yet he alone had cut through them all!

At this moment, Zhuge Feng was covered in blood. It was impossible to tell whether it was his own blood or that of his enemies!
