The sudden turn of events didn't just shock the withered old man Shi, even the blood light he was gathering went out of control and he suffered a backlash due to shock.
He was sure he could be crushed by old Kang and the reason for this was actually simple, they were on different levels.
Even with that difference he was crushed just like the way the heavenly mandate experts were crushed. In the other party's eyes, perhaps there was no difference between them.
Thinking of this, old Shi was shivering. And at the same time he seemed to remember something he heard old Kang shout just before his death.
"Dao Lord! Impossible! It is said that the Main city lord was just a strong man in the Ascension stage? Is Dao Lord really a thing? Oh no! My life is in danger!" He was shuddering.
