Lu Changsheng's back was no longer hunched. His once-withered body swelled as though filling with air, while Martial Astral Force, so thick it was almost solid, coursed around him and sliced the surrounding air into shrill whistles.
"No mercy."
He spoke those three words without a hysterical roar, only the chill of someone stating a fact.
In his eyes burned pure killing intent, fermented and refined over three hundred years, without a drop of anything else mixed in.
This was no trick, and no empty threat.
If Qing Wuming dared utter even half a word of refusal, this fiend who had just broken his shackles and stepped into the realm of Peerless Grandmaster would spring forward without hesitation and tear the Dragon-Pig Imperial Clan member before him to pieces.
