Lu Ren sensed the killing intent. His body flashed, and he vanished from where he stood in an instant, narrowly evading the sword strike.
Then he saw a black-robed old man slowly appear before him, gripping a longsword as an astonishing calamity aura radiated from his body.
That aura had reached at least the Power of Three Hundred Thousand Calamities.
"Are you Teng Li?"
A sharp gleam flickered in Lu Ren's eyes as he immediately recognized him. The man was none other than Teng Li, the Teng Family ancestor who had escaped back then.
Back then, Teng Li had only been at Fifth Tribulation Transcendence. Now, however, he seemed to have reached Six Tribulation Transcendence.
Teng Li's aura surged around him, his momentum soaring as he stared at Lu Ren. "Xu Tianji, I have been lying in wait here for months. I finally found you! You destroyed my Teng Family. Today, I will surely kill you!"
Ever since the Teng Family had been destroyed, he had constantly sought a way to kill Lu Ren. But Lu Ren's displayed strength had only grown more terrifying. Left with no choice, he had sought pills once more and finally broken through to Six Tribulation Transcendence. He had also cultivated the Power of Three Hundred Thousand Calamities, all to ensure that he could kill Lu Ren beyond any doubt.
"Back then, your Teng Family was willing to pay any price to kill me. It could not have been merely to seize an immortal scripture, could it? What was the real reason?" Lu Ren asked.
He did not believe that a Fifth-Rank Noble Family would dare to stop at nothing to kill him just to seize an immortal scripture. There had to be another reason behind it.
"Heh. I'll tell you after you're dead!"
