When Tu Xing arrived, leading thousands of personal guards and seven Emperor Realm Third Layer cultivators, Gong Qing felt utterly hopeless.

The scene she dreaded most had appeared.

And yet, the person she was relying on, at this point, showed no reaction at all, allowing the enemies to surround them entirely.

Not until the encirclement became layer upon layer did Chao Guang, feeling relieved, boldly appear from behind Tu Xing.

"Haha, we meet again by chance!"

Upon seeing Brother Cheng, this guy became all animated.

"How do you feel now?"

"Try acting arrogant in front of me again?"

Seeing his smug expression of triumph, Brother Cheng almost felt pity.

What a useful tool, not only leading the way but also gathering a bunch of enemies for him to kill conveniently.

He'd feel bad not giving him an award.

"Feels awesome," he grinned.

Chao Guang couldn't laugh; he was slightly irritated.

This wasn't the reaction he wanted to see.

Wasn't he supposed to be scared out of his wits, apologizing repeatedly and letting him vent, only to be killed in the end?

"Seems like you don't realize the plight you're in!"

He pointed to Tu Xing beside him.

Boastingly, he said, "My uncle is a Realm Master at the late-stage Emperor Realm Third Layer, and these seven are Emperor Realm Third Layer early-stage experts!"

"Repeat what you said earlier in front of them?"

Brother Cheng produced a cigarette, took a puff, then leisurely blew a smoke ring.

"Seems like you're not convinced."

Thinking of the humiliating moment when he backed down before, Chao Guang cursed: "I'll answer to your grandpa, wait…"

Tu Xing impatiently pushed him aside.

"Alright, alright, what business is this of yours?"

He squinted, sized up Sect Leader Jiang, with a serious gaze.

"Was it you who killed Luan Long?"

Despite his surface level being only Emperor Realm First Layer, being able to kill Luan Long proved his combat strength was at least Emperor Realm Third Layer mid-stage.

Besides, at the time, there were so many present, yet not a single survivor was left.

Oh wait, there was one survivor.

This kind of person demands cautiousness.

"Yes, yes!"

Brother Cheng honestly admitted.

"Why did you kill him?"

Tu Xing actually didn't believe Jiang Cheng was passing by by chance; he suspected a conspiracy.

"Didn't like him, so I killed him!"

Gong Qing was dumbfounded.

Is he crazy?

Or is the enemy's fury not enough?

If it were her, she'd use her eloquence to explain properly, hoping to turn hostility into friendship.

Even if not diffused, at least stand on a righteous ground!

What kind of talk is this?

Tu Xing's eyes surged with murderous intent, exuding a deep sense of pressure.

"Luan Long was my trusted man, are you opposing me?"

Brother Cheng chuckled: "You're really trying to give yourself undeserved glory, who do you think you are? Worth opposing specifically?"

Gong Qing almost wanted to curse him.

Can't you say something nice?

Always saying things the other dislikes, what good does it bring?

Courting death!

Tu Xing's commanders and guards were furious, wielding Immortal Artifacts ready to fight.

"How bold!"

"Damned, what do you amount to?"

But Tu Xing himself hesitated.

The opponent was overly confident, unusually so.

There's something strange about things not being normal!

Does he have an ambush?

Or is his strength beyond my imagination?

"Who sent you? Are you after my Realm Master's position?"

Hearing his words, Gong Qing was pleasantly surprised.

Quickly interjecting: "This senior comes from a great background; he's close with several Lords…"

Anyway, nobody recognizes Jiang Cheng.

She hoped to bluff, scare Tu Xing away.

That way, avoiding battle and eliminating disaster would be ideal!

However, Brother Cheng sternly interrupted her.

"What nonsense are you spouting, who qualifies to send me?"

Tu Xing was stunned, furrowing his brows: "Let's not beat around the bush, might as well show your hand at this point."

"Show what hand?"

"Bring out your helpers and comrades."

"I don't have any, just the two of us."

Brother Cheng grew impatient, directly drew his sword.

"What Lords or Realm Masters, I don't know them, don't worry."

His gaze roamed over Tu Xing's sword.

Is that the True Artifact soon to be mine?

Can't wait!

Gong Qing was speechless, silent tears, and gave up reasoning.

This teammate is helpless, truly helpless.

Others originally had concerns, now you've dispelled them all.

Seems like wherever there's a dead end, he heads precisely there, afraid of the opponent not fighting!

Tu Xing finally felt relieved.

"That's truly a pity."

"So, you're just a wandering ghost all along."

"Then go and die!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, he led the seven commanders in an attack.

Sect Leader Jiang's Immortal Sword flicked, all buffs matched, Tier Ten Great Perfection swordsmanship and fifteen Sword Hearts charged out.

A grand battle erupted over the Immortal City's skies.

Brother Cheng showed no concern for Tu Xing's offensive, nor cared about getting injured, charging directly into the crowd.

Those Emperor Realm Second Layers had only ever experienced Ice, never seen such multicolored Profound Pattern attacks.

Moments later, a large number of personal guards fell from the sky.

Below, in the city, countless cultivators gasped in shock.

"My God, who is this?"

"Crazy, daring to actually battle the Realm Master?"

"What a ferocious man!"

Tu Xing's eyes were bloodshot; Jiang Cheng rushed into the crowd, and if he used full force, he would harm his own men.

"Damn!"

"Kill!"

"Kill him!"

His rage was futile.

Only seconds later, aside from the seven Emperor Realm Third Layer commanders, Brother Cheng had killed all the other guards.

"Helped you clear out some riffraff, no need to thank me, it's what I should do." The guy seemed intent on provoking.

"Die!"

Tu Xing's roar echoed for miles.

The real showdown only now began.

Rumble, the sky witnessed another battle of sun and moon, with Five Elements Mini World detonations stretching endlessly.

Jiang Cheng realized his combat power had inexplicably increased significantly.

Not his realm advancing, but the Tier Ten Immortal Sword is massively stronger than Tier Nine, greatly enhancing his ability.

Facing the previous Emperor Realm Fourth Layer Lord now, he'd probably survive.

At this moment, his opponents were merely Emperor Realm Third Layers.

The seven commanders facing Sword Heart and Power's Profound Pattern attack were overwhelmed.

If not for Tu Xing the late-stage Emperor Realm Third Layer Realm Master blocking at the front, someone among them would soon fall.

As time went on, the battle became white-hot.
