Looking at the huge pit in front of him, Chen Zhutian's calf was trembling.
If that palm had hit him… he would probably have been dead!
"This junior is Chen Zhutian, a disciple of the Myriad Sword Pavilion. Who is Senior?" He asked in a trembling voice.
He wanted to identify the opponent's background first so that he wouldn't act rashly.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one in the room said anything.
"Didn't you say he's a coward? Why is he a senior now?"
Chen Zhutian's expression was awkward. He had not expected that there would be such an expert in this village.
He had wanted to prove his strength to his junior sister, but in the end, he was crushed like a fly.
"Junior sister, who exactly is in this room?" He couldn't help but ask.
Judging from the might of that palm strike, it must be at least a practitioner of the Nascent Soul Realm!
Before Yue Jianli could reply, the male voice sounded once again, "A swarm of flies dare disturb this seat. Scram!"
Following the sound that rang like a bell, dark clouds gathered above their heads.
A majestic might of heaven and earth seemed to envelop them.
The aura was terrifying!
"F*ck!" Chen Zhutian and the others almost collapsed to the ground.
Just a single word could trigger the might of the heavens and the clouds covering the sky?
This wasn't just a Nascent Soul cultivator, this could have been a Crossing Calamity expert!
Yue Jianli held back her laughter and said, "Senior Brother Chen, you should leave quickly. The person in the room doesn't have a good temper. If you were to offend him…"
She deliberately did not finish her sentence.
Chen Zhutian was so scared that his legs went limp. "I-I-I-I just remembered that there are still some things that have not been dealt with in the sect. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
After saying that, he was about to leave, but Yue Jianli said, "The senior is in seclusion here. Senior Brother Chen, it's best not to speak nonsense about what happened here."
"Of course!" Chen Zhutian nodded. "I didn't see anything today!"
"Good. Take care of yourself," Yue Jianli said.
"Hold on, hold on!" Chen Zhutian didn't dare to stay any longer. He took the frightened deacons and fled.
After flying for several hundred miles, they slowly stopped.
"Senior brother Chen, do you want to report this to the sect master?" A deacon asked while panting.
"No way! If anyone dares to divulge this matter to anyone… don't blame me for being rude!" Chen Zhutian snapped at them.
What a joke. Wasn't that a slap to his face?
"But Chief Disciple Yue is staying there…" the deacon said carefully.
"This…" Chen Zhutian cleared his throat and said, "As long as I'm sure that junior sister is safe, then it is up to her to make her own decisions. As her senior brother, I wish her the best."
Faced with a powerful being that was able to manipulate the phenomena of the heavens and the earth, he was no longer in the least bit jealous.
At the same time, he swore in his heart:
In the future, this small village would be his forbidden area, and he would never step into it again!
"..." The deacons looked at him with contempt.
Chen Zhutian is such a coward…

On the other side…
Yue Jianli walked into the room and saw Li Ran sitting on the chair yawning.
"You just used your divine ability. Is your body alright?" she said with concern.
"I'm fine." Li Ran shook his head. It's just a bluff. I didn't use much qi."
His identity was special. If he were to appear with Yue Jianli, he would bring her a great deal of trouble.
He couldn't possibly kill all of her seniors, could he?
That was why he had used such a move.
"But that senior brother of yours seems to have something with you, right?" Li Ran joked.
Yue Jianli shook her head. "But I have no interest in him."
She had no feelings for Chen Zhutian, to begin with. After experiencing today's events, her hate for him grew to the extreme.
"Now that he knows that you have a 'husband' at the Crossing Calamity stage, he probably won't dare to look at you again." Li Ran smiled.
Yue Jianli's face turned red, but after thinking about it, that seemed to be the case.
She couldn't help but feel much more relaxed.
"Let's eat."
"Good."
"That's right." Li Ran looked around. "Where's Aunty Sun? I just saw her."
Yue Jianli suddenly remembered something. "Aunty Sun is still outside!"
At this moment, the door suddenly opened.
Aunty Sun brought a large group of villagers over and excitedly said, "There, there they are!"
Yue Jianli was taken aback. "What are you doing…"
Before she could finish her sentence, all the villagers were kneeling on the ground, their heads banging against the ground.
"We greet Lord Immortal!"
"I didn't know that Lord Immortal is residing here, this mortal deserves death!"
"Please forgive me, Lord Immortal!"
"..." Li Ran and Yue Jianli looked at each other helplessly.
"It seems that we cannot eat this meal…"

Wu Yang City, Xiao Mansion…
The travel-worn Xiao Qingge opened the door.
The Grand Myriad Mountain Range was located in the southern territory, and they were far away from Wu Yang City. She had to rely on Xiao Clan's connections in various places, and it took her a few full days to rush back.
She had just walked a few steps when she met Butler Fu.
"Miss? Why did you only come back now!" Uncle Fu was shocked.
"I've made a trip. Why isn't there anyone in the manor? What happened?" Xiao Qingge asked.
Uncle Fu hesitated.
Under her constant questioning, he whispered, "The Li family is here to annul the engagement!"
