The Qian Family Wiped Out, a Golden Immortal at the Gates
Wuhe Immortal City, Qian Family Mansion.
As one of the three major families in the city, the Qian Family has always been known for its wealth, and its mansion is magnificent and resplendent. But at this moment, the mansion is in complete chaos.
"Hurry! Hurry up!"
The head of the Qian Family, Qian Wantong, a powerful cultivator at the Late-stage Earth Immortal, was currently sweating profusely as he directed his trusted confidants to move treasure chests from the warehouse.
"Forget all the heavy items that we can't carry! Only take the immortal stones and high-grade spiritual materials!"
"Master, are we not going to avenge the young master?" an elder asked, his eyes red.
"Revenge?!"
Qian Wantong slapped her across the face and roared, "Do you want our Qian Family line to end?!"
"The one who killed that rebellious son was a monster who could slap even the city lord to death! A killing god who even made that old fox from the Sun Family kneel down and beg for mercy!"
"How can we take revenge? By banging our heads against the wall?"
Just now, he received news of his informant's death. At that moment, he felt no anger, only boundless fear.
He knew all too well the cruelty of the cultivation Immortal Realm. If you don't nip it in the bud, it will grow back in the spring. Since Dongfang Yueming had killed someone, how could he possibly let the Qian Family off the hook?
"Let's go! Let's go now! To other immortal cities, even to become a rogue cultivator in the wilderness, is better than staying here to wait for death!"
A small, airship quickly took off. Qian Wantong, along with the core members of his family, transformed into a streak of light and rushed hastily out of the city.
The city lord's mansion, back garden.
Dongfang Yueming closed his eyes to rest, enjoying a rare moment of tranquility.
Suddenly, a faint, cold smile appeared on his lips.
"Trying to run now?"
"It's too late."
His Divine Sense had long since covered the entire Wuhe Immortal City like a net covering the Heavenly Net and Earthly Web. Not a single blade of grass or tree, not even the crawling of an ant, could escape his perception.
To him, the Qian Family's actions were as conspicuous as fireflies in the dark.
"Since you've started the first day of the month, you have to be prepared to do the fifteenth."
Dongfang Yueming did not get up.
He simply stretched out his right hand slowly, making a fist in the Xukong his five fingers, in the direction the Qian Family's flying boat had fled.
[Perfection, Law of Space, Spatial Collapse]!
10,000 meters above the ground.
Qian Wantong watched the city walls draw ever closer, a flicker of joy at escaping death rose in his heart.
"Buzz--!"
Suddenly, the space around the airship began to distort without warning!
It's like a piece of drawing paper that's been crumpled up!
"No... no good!"
Qian Wantong was horrified and desperately tried to stabilize the flying boat by channeling his immortal power.
However, before that vast and mighty Law of Space, his power was as insignificant as dust.
"Snap--!"
A crisp sound.
The sturdy airship, along with dozens of core members of the Qian Family inside, was instantly squeezed and twisted by the collapsing space!
There was no blood splattering, nor were body parts flying everywhere.
They vanished from their spot in an instant, as if swallowed by an invisible black hole, along with their storage rings filled with treasure.
Only the rings, shimmering with spiritual light, remained. Guided by the Law of Space, they pierced through the sky and fell into the city lord's mansion.
The Qian Family of Wuhe Immortal City has been expelled from the list!
Inside the city, countless cultivators watching this scene felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads.
"That's... that's too cruel!"
"Shocking the entire family from afar before they even arrive!"
"Is this the new city lord's method? From now on, even a fly wanting to fly out of Wuhe Immortal City will have to depend on that lord's whim!"
However.
Just as all the cultivators in the city were filled with the utmost awe and reverence for Dongfang Yueming.
"Hiss--Hiss--!"
A chilling screech suddenly came from the distant horizon.
Immediately afterwards, the previously clear sky turned into a dazzling golden yellow!
That wasn't sunlight.
That was... an endless golden poisonous mist!
"Boom--!"
An aura of pressure a hundred or even a thousand times more terrifying than Li Canghai's back then, like an ancient golden mountain falling from the sky, crashed into the protective array of Wuhe Immortal City!
"Snap! Snap!"
The newly repaired array, under the oppressive force of this aura, let out a mournful cry, and cracks appeared all over the light barrier!
"Wha... who are you?!"
The cultivators in the city looked up in shock.
Amidst the vast expanse of golden mist, the phantom of a colossal golden python, tens of thousands of feet long, appeared and disappeared. Above the python's head stood an old man dressed in a golden robe, with a sinister face and strangely vertical pupils.
With his hands behind his back, he unleashed his terrifying Late-stage Golden Immortal cultivation without reservation, wreaking havoc on heaven and earth!
The Golden Serpent Venerable is enshrined on the gold plaque of the Soaring Cloud Pavilion!
Who is Dongfang Yueming?!
The Golden Serpent Venerable's voice was sharp and piercing, like metal rubbing together, making it extremely unpleasant to listen to.
"Get out here...!"
This roar, imbued with the Law of Sound Waves of Golden Immortal, instantly shattered the tiles of countless houses in the city!
Many low-level Earth Immortal and Human Immortal even covered their ears, fell to the ground screaming in agony, and bled from all seven orifices!
"A Golden Immortal... Golden Immortal?!"
"It's the symbol of the Soaring Cloud Pavilion! Soaring Cloud Pavilion's revenge has arrived!"
The city's cultivators, who had just begun to feel awe and reverence for Dongfang Yueming, were now plunged into despair and panic once again.
In their view, although Dongfang Yueming was strong, he was only a Perfected Heavenly Immortal at the peak of his cultivation, and at most he could fight against True Immortal.
But the one in front of me...
That's a genuine Late-stage Golden Immortal! Someone powerful enough to be an ancestor in a first-rate immortal city!
"It's over! This time it's really over!"
Heavenly Immortal fight, mortals suffer!
The Golden Serpent Venerable looked down at the chaotic immortal city below, his eyes filled with contempt and arrogance.
"Hmph, this mere border region dares to touch the people of my Soaring Cloud Pavilion?"
"Today, I will slaughter this city to serve as a warning to others!"
He slowly raised his withered hand, and in his palm, a uniquely shaped, snake-like golden longsword slowly emerged.
Superior-grade Dao artifact -- [Golden Serpent Sword]!
A murderous intent instantly locked onto the direction of the City Lord's Mansion!
