Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 961 - 924: Frog in a Well?

"Mr. Xuantian, you're looking for Mr. Xuantian?" He Yiming looked incredulously at the beautiful woman, then laughed and said, "You wouldn't happen to bear a grudge against Mr. Xuantian, would you?"

"A grudge?" The beautiful woman gently shook her head and said plainly, "Not exactly. Don't waste words; just tell me where Qin Xuantian is. Since your He Family has submitted to Qin Xuantian, you should know.

"Hahaha, what kind of thing is Qin Xuantian? Is he even worthy of having a grudge against my Junior Sister Jiang?" At this moment, a contemptuous voice came, and a man dressed in a blue close-fitting outfit walked over and stood beside the beautiful woman.

He looked like he was in his twenties, with handsome features, and an extremely arrogant demeanor. As he walked, his chin slightly raised, he didn't bother to look people in the eye.

The young man looked down at He Yiming, who was lying on the ground, and sneered, "Pathetic mortal, I suggest you answer Junior Sister Jiang's question immediately, otherwise don't blame me for making your life unbearable!"

"Senior Brother Bai, I've already said, my matters need not your interference." The beautiful woman frowned slightly, stepped aside a little to distance herself from the young man, and then looked at He Yiming, saying, "You should see I have no intent to kill you; I haven't killed even one member of your He Family."

"But you've severely injured all of them." He Yiming snorted coldly, saying, "Since you've done it, don't be pretentious. Moreover, I also advise you, go back the way you came, and don't think about targeting Mr. Xuantian."

"Oh? Seems like you're quite a loyal dog of Qin Xuantian." The young man surnamed Bai looked at He Yiming mockingly, sneering, "Your own family is about to be wiped out, yet you still want to protect Qin Xuantian and hide his whereabouts?"

"No, you've misunderstood." He Yiming looked at the young man and the beautiful woman, suddenly laughed and said, "I'm saving you, sparing you from seeking your own demise. Mr. Xuantian's power is beyond your imagination. If you really insist on seeking him, you might as well commit suicide now and end everything decisively."

"You seek death!!" Hearing this, the young man surnamed Bai was furious, his eyes bursting with a fierce green light, his whole being like an embodiment of divine will, dominating all under heaven!

Meanwhile, the clouds in the sky gathered and surged suddenly, turning completely dark; the sky changed dramatically within a dozen kilometers radius, instantly turning from day to night, with bolts of lightning thundering in the clouds, and torrential rain pouring down.

"A Saint?" He Yiming looked at the young man surnamed Bai with uncertainty and surprise.

This man's anger instantly caused a massive change in the celestial phenomenon over such a large area; clearly, he surpassed the normal Innate level. In his understanding, such a strong person should be a Saint above the Innate.

"Hahahaha! Saint?" The young man surnamed Bai laughed out loud, causing the clouds to surge even more violently, and the torrential rain to pour like a galaxy descending, enveloping an area of dozens of kilometers in a dense rain curtain, "To me, what are mere Saints but ants!"

"Ridiculous! Saints—existences even above Innate—if you're going to boast, at least prepare a draft!" He Yiming didn't believe him at all. Though he was astonished by the young man's strength, in his view, Saints are already the strongest, even amidst the recovery of Spiritual Energy and the awakening of the supernatural, Saints are absolute powerhouses. How could someone exist who views Saints as ants?

Impossible!

Even if such an existence could exist, it would not be some unknown nobody but a strong person like Qin Heng.

"Laughably narrow-sighted." The young man surnamed Bai shook his head, losing interest in further explaining to He Yiming, he directly spoke to the beautiful woman beside him: "Junior Sister Jiang, there's no need to question him further. Such an ant, we can just kill him and extract his soul for memory reading, no need for such trouble."

"...." The beautiful woman's willow brows furrowed slightly, looking at the young man surnamed Bai, she said, "Senior Brother Bai, I never asked you to accompany me. How I act is my own affair, and we are not even from the same sect, please don't meddle too much."

Her tone had become somewhat cold, evidently not welcoming this young man surnamed Bai.

"Fine, fine, fine!" The young man surnamed Bai expressed with a gloomy face after uttering three consecutive "fine," then stepped aside with a dark expression, saying, "Junior Sister Jiang, you are truly kind-hearted, but don't forget the reason you came to this Lower Realm. Hopefully, you won't be this merciful when the time comes."

"I know very well, no need for Senior Brother Bai's reminder." The beautiful woman said in an indifferent tone, ignoring the young man, once again addressing He Yiming: "Tell me where Qin Xuantian is, I don't want to kill you."

"Heh." He Yiming sneered, "It seems your backgrounds are extraordinary, but no matter how strong you are, when you face Mr. Xuantian, you will only despair!

But since you're so eager to die, I'll fulfill your wish. The last time I contacted people from Mr. Xuantian's side was half a month ago, they are at the Observatory on Purple Gold Mountain, which is now the temporary office of the Myth Organization."

"Myth Organization?" The beautiful woman shook her head gently, speaking softly, "A group from the Lower Realm daring to name themselves after the Immortal Gods, they are simply courting death; mere ants, not worth mentioning. I didn't expect Qin Xuantian to associate with such arrogant people, truly disappointing."

Then, with a slight grasp of her hand, the void immediately condensed, as if an invisible giant hand grabbed He Yiming and lifted him into the air.

"Let's go to Purple Gold Mountain." The beautiful woman glanced at He Yiming, who was being hoisted in the air, and said calmly, "You will come too—I don't like liars, and if you deceive me, there will be retribution."

...

Purple Gold Mountain Observatory.

Here, the Myth Organization's temporary office was filled with prohibitions and formations; hence, even if Song Ningran and Xue Qinan and others had been away for some time, no one inside, it remained unscathed, appearing as it originally was.

Qin Heng, with Song Ningran and others, traveled across millions of miles using the method of traveling through the Spirit Realm, returning from England to Purple Gold Mountain in just a few seconds.

However, such long-distance Spirit Realm travel still had some effects on those whose cultivation was not strong enough, causing Qin Yun and Qi Jia's faces to turn slightly pale.

"Let's rest a bit first." Qin Heng infused a gentle stream of mana into Qin Yun's body, intending to take them into the Observatory to rest for a while; the group had been on the move for a while.

But just then, a ray of moonlight-like brilliance suddenly spanned across the sky, arriving above Purple Gold Mountain.

In an instant, night descended, turning the daylight into pitch-black night without warning; only the icy moonlight remained, stretching across the firmament, an infinite silence spreading, making it seem as if all things were frozen in time.

Simultaneously, an indifferent and cold female voice spoke:

"Qin Xuantian, you are indeed here. You once rescued me from trouble and are considered my benefactor. I do not wish to kill you, so I ask you to end your life."
