The words of the Red Armor Worshiper naturally underwent some artistic embellishment.
Hearing this, Venerable Qian Ming Xuan paid no mind. The rage around him grew even fiercer, his black robe fluttered loudly, his killing intent surged in his eyes, locking firmly onto Li Taiqing and the other four, his tone bone-chilling and carrying world-destroying might:
"A bunch of ignorant youngsters who don't know the immensity of heaven and earth dare to slaughter the people of my Myriad Realms Merchant Alliance and insult the prestige of my Alliance!
Today, this Venerable will make your Divine Souls vanish completely, preventing you from ever reincarnating, letting you know that the wrath of the Merchant Alliance is absolutely not something you can withstand!"
Before his voice fell, Venerable Qian Ming Xuan raised his hand and condensed a pitch-black palm print. Vast, chilling power coiled around the palm print as it struck toward Li Taiqing and the others.
As a Celestial Golden Immortal Realm Cultivator, he didn't put these Cultivators who had just entered the Primordial Chaos Realm in his eyes at all, wishing only to kill them completely with a single strike and quickly end this matter.
"Not good! This is a Powerful Expert of the Celestial Golden Immortal Realm."
Lin Feng and Chen Yan's expressions changed drastically, their entire bodies instantly tensing up. Even though they knew their three Senior Brothers were powerful, facing a strike from a Celestial Golden Immortal Realm mighty figure, they still felt a deadly sense of oppression.
Seeing that Venerable Qian Ming Xuan immediately attacked, clearly intending to protect his own regardless of right or wrong, Li Taiqing reluctantly spoke:
"Little Bai, why are you still watching the show?"
Sooner said than done, just as the pitch-black palm print was about to reach them, a faint ripple suddenly stirred in the Chaos. As the ripple spread, a figure instantly blocked the path in front of Li Taiqing and the others.
They saw a massive beast, purple all over and wreathed in purple flames, standing tall with its head held high. Its body was enormous, Evil Qi surged around it, radiating immense ferocity. Its pair of vertical pupils were bone-chillingly cold, and the aura it emitted was mighty and vast, far surpassing Venerable Qian Ming Xuan. It was the Evil Qilin.
Just as the Evil Qilin appeared, a voice familiar to everyone rang out:
"Hmph, hmph, doesn't this still rely on me to settle the matter?"
As the voice faded, Little Bai's figure appeared. Its size was not large, merely that of a mortal ferocious tiger. Its entire body was snow-white, its fur smooth as silk, and a golden 'King' pattern shone brightly on its forehead.
Little Bai flicked its fluffy tiger tail, adding a playful mockery to its tone:
"Little Li, Little Brother Jiang, you guys are too weak. Dealing with a few pieces of trash requires me to come and save the day. If Master finds out, he might laugh at you for slacking off on your cultivation."
Hearing this, Jiang Hao's mouth twitched, but he wasn't annoyed. He laughed and said:
"You're amazing, you go up. Let us witness the magnificent style of 'Master Bai'."
Hearing this, Little Bai lightly coughed twice, and the Evil Qilin understood immediately.
The next moment, the massive and ferociously imposing Evil Qilin lowered its head in front of Little Bai, its tone actually carrying a hint of respect, and even a trace of flattery:
"You jest. How can dealing with such ant-like creatures warrant troubling Master Bai and the Young Masters? I should be the one to act."
"Little Purple is right. I don't need to act against such minor characters."
Little Bai followed up on the Evil Qilin's words.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Little Bai had also inherited Master's naming style, giving the Evil Qilin the name Little Purple.
The latter didn't feel any aversion; the handsomest name was useless. A catchy name like this might make Han Xuanji remember him better.
When Venerable Qian Ming Xuan saw the two figures that suddenly appeared, especially after sensing the faint pressure emanating from the Evil Qilin, his expression abruptly changed. He raised his hand, retracted the pitch-black palm print, and his eyes were filled with apprehension:
"Who... who are you people? Why are you protecting these Xuantian Dao Palace Cultivators?"
The Evil Qilin did not display its cultivation, but easily taking his attack made it impossible for Venerable Qian Ming Xuan to gauge its true strength.
Little Bai slightly raised its chin, tilted its head, and its tone was full of arrogant bravado, not putting Venerable Qian Ming Xuan, this Celestial Golden Immortal Realm mighty figure, in its eyes at all, even carrying a hint of impatience and disdain:
"What kind of thing are you? Do you even deserve to shout in front of me? Furthermore, are the people of my Xuantian Dao Palace people you can touch?"
It pointed at the Red Armor Worshiper, and then pointed at Venerable Qian Ming Xuan, its tone growing increasingly arrogant:
"And you, Myriad Realms Merchant Alliance, you truly don't know death from life! To dare actively provoke my Xuantian Dao Palace—today shall be your death date!"
Venerable Qian Ming Xuan's face cycled between green and white, shocked and enraged. He was a Celestial Golden Immortal Realm mighty figure; when had he ever been humiliated like this by a little fellow at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level?
Yet, fearing the Evil Qilin's strength, he dared not easily lash out. He could only forcefully suppress the rage in his heart and said coldly:
"Little fellow, don't be so arrogant! This Venerable is Venerable Qian Ming Xuan of the Myriad Realms Merchant Alliance. I advise you to quickly step aside, otherwise, don't blame this Venerable for being impolite."
"Be impolite?"
Little Bai sneered, lifted its chin toward the Evil Qilin, its tone as casual as if giving orders to a subordinate:
"Little Purple, slap him dead for me. Daring to act arrogantly in front of This Young Master, he must be tired of living!"
The Evil Qilin felt nothing wrong with Little Bai's command; on the contrary, it was quite excited.
Finally, it could do something.
"Following Master Bai's instruction!"
Before its voice fell, the Evil Qilin let out a roar that shook the Chaos. The Evil Qi around its body surged, and the pressure of Celestial Golden Immortal Realm Perfection completely erupted, instantly enveloping Venerable Qian Ming Xuan.
Venerable Qian Ming Xuan's expression changed drastically. He immediately thought inwardly that things were bad and wanted to turn and flee, but found that his body was already firmly restrained by the Evil Qilin's power, unable to move even slightly.
Although both were in the Celestial Golden Immortal Realm, his cultivation was vastly inferior to the opponent's.
Before Venerable Qian Ming Xuan could beg for mercy, the Evil Qilin raised its massive claw and slammed it down fiercely toward Venerable Qian Ming Xuan with the might of crushing everything.
With just the power of one claw, Venerable Qian Ming Xuan, this Celestial Golden Immortal Realm mighty figure, was instantly struck until his Divine Soul vanished completely, dissipating entirely into the Chaos Void Realm, as if he had never existed.
Lin Feng, standing nearby, was already stunned into stillness by the scene before him. His gaze was locked onto the Evil Qilin, his heart pounding wildly.
The image of the Evil Qilin striking Venerable Qian Ming Xuan dead with one claw just now repeatedly surfaced in his mind—that kind of overwhelming might, even the top Chaos mighty figures he had heard of might not possess such power.
He had also heard that Little Bai was Master's Spirit Pet, but he never expected it could command such a terrifying massive beast.
Is this reasonable?
The Red Armor Worshiper nearby was already so scared that his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, and his breathing became weak.
What is going on?
The Celestial Golden Immortal Realm Enshrined he had painstakingly invited was slapped dead by this massive beast?
The Red Armor Worshiper still wanted to say something.
They saw the Evil Qilin sneeze, and incidentally crushed this main culprit to death.
Chen Yan, meanwhile, was already dumbfounded, muttering to himself:
"This... this is too outrageous, isn't it? Casually slapping another Celestial Golden Immortal Realm Powerful Expert to death... Xuantian Dao Palace truly is a place where crouching tigers and hidden dragons reside. I must become a Disciple, I must stay here no matter what!"
He felt that with his Primordial Chaos cultivation, he should be qualified enough to sneak in as an ordinary Disciple.
