Chapter 28

"Lord of the city, I'm sorry, I'm just a guest of the Jiang family, I don't want to die here."

Another person ran up to Li Shanyue and kowtowed. These two were named Yang Xiao and Chang Shan, originally guests of Jiang Zhenhai, who had been loyal to him in the past.

"Yang Xiao, Chang Shan, you two scoundrels, the Lord of the city has treated you well, and you are so spineless."

Zhou Beichen shouted loudly.

"Damn, you're really spineless, you don't have an ounce of manliness."

The fat elder was also indignant.

"Alright, everyone has their own will. There's no need for you to die with me. If there's a chance to live, you should seize it."

Jiang Zhenhai said.

"I won't kneel in humiliation like a dog. So what if it means death?"

Zhou Beichen said with a mocking face.

"Men die with their heads held high, and in eighteen years, we'll be heroes again."

The thin elder patted his chest.

The other few Qi Sea Realm experts did not go to kneel either. Qi Sea Realm experts have their dignity, and over the years, Jiang Zhenhai had treated them sincerely. If they betrayed him now when the Jiang family was in trouble, they would not be human.

On the other side, Li Shanyue looked at the two kneeling on the ground with disdain and said, "You two, get up. I won't kill you, but I want you to kill Jiang Zhenhai."

Li Shanyue looked at Jiang Zhenhai with a mocking expression. He didn't want to kill Jiang Zhenhai himself but wanted Jiang Zhenhai to die at the hands of his own people, which would be an incredibly painful experience.

"What?"

The two exclaimed in surprise, not expecting Li Shanyue to make such a demand.

"What? Unwilling? That's fine too. If you're unwilling, I'll kill you right away."

Li Shanyue said casually, the aura of the Human Dan Realm swirling above Yang Xiao and Chang Shan, making it hard for them to breathe.

The two looked at each other, finally gritted their teeth, and shook their heads.

Then, the two stood up and walked towards Jiang Zhenhai step by step.

"Lord of the city, I'm sorry."

The two's essence energy vibrated, and to save their lives, they were ready to fight.

"Go to hell."

Zhou Beichen couldn't take it anymore. He and the fat and thin elders turned into a gust of wind and launched their strongest attacks.

Bang! Bang!

The two were already guilty, how could they be a match for Zhou Beichen and the others in their rage? They were directly knocked flying and landed not far away.

"Hmph!"

Li Shanyue coldly snorted, a wave of energy burst from his body, forcing Zhou Beichen and the others to retreat. The fat and thin elders, whose cultivation was slightly lower, had blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. The gap between them and Li Shanyue was indeed too great.

"A few mere Qi Sea Realm experts dare to fight back."

Li Shanyue looked down on them.

"Lord Li, don't waste time with them. Kill them directly and bring out that Jiang Chen boy."

Murong Tian said viciously.

"Good, kill them all, raze the Lord's residence to ashes, and leave no one alive."

Li Shanyue coldly ordered. He was a very cruel person.

Boom... Boom...

As Li Shanyue spoke, the Li family released their auras, the surging power like powerful storms.

"You dare to do this!"

At this moment, a sudden change occurred. A deep voice echoed from inside the Jiang family, like thunder, rolling and powerful. Just one sentence almost made many people lose their composure.

Boom!

Then, an explosion sounded, and everyone saw a house in the Jiang family courtyard being torn open by a powerful energy. An invisible pressure spread from above.

Subsequently, the air crackled, and a crimson flame suddenly rose from below, forming a pillar of fire like a dragon, creating a sea of fire three zhang wide in the sky. The sea of fire churned with invisible energy, stirring up a deep vortex.

Whoosh... Whoosh...

A powerful soul pressure spread, enveloping the Lord's residence.

"Such a powerful soul pressure, even my soul is trembling. This must be the soul pressure of a Heaven Dan Realm expert."

Li Shanyue's face changed dramatically.

"The soul power combined with fire, this is a nearly perfect fire control technique. There's a powerful alchemist hidden here."

"Heaven Dan Realm soul pressure, there's a Heaven Dan Realm expert here."

The other two Human Dan Realm experts looked at the swirling flames in the sky with shock. They could clearly feel the powerful soul power emanating from the sea of fire, which was at least at the Heaven Dan Realm level.

The people of the Jiang family were also stunned, their faces changing as they looked at the sea of fire above.

"That's Chen's residence."

Jiang Zhenhai was surprised, his mouth wide open.

"Such powerful soul pressure, when did such a powerful expert hide in Young Master's room?"

Zhou Beichen muttered to himself.

"I am cultivating here in peace, and you dare to disturb me. Die!"

The deep voice echoed again, this time using soul power, captivating the mind.

"Unaware of the presence of a great expert, we have offended. Please forgive us, Sir. I am Li Shanyue, the head of the Li family in Chicheng. I humbly request that you come to the Li family for cultivation. I will provide the best conditions for you. This small Tianxiang City is truly unworthy of you."

Li Shanyue reined in his aura, bowed to the sky, and said very respectfully. A Heaven Dan Realm expert was not someone he could afford to offend.

"Get out!"

The sea of fire churned, and a loud shout echoed.

The faces of all the Li family members changed, and they were silent as cicadas in winter. They were not afraid of the pressure, but they were afraid of the anger of a Heaven Dan Realm expert.

"I'll give you three breaths. Otherwise, I'll burn you to ashes."

The deep voice echoed again, and the sea of fire roared, expanding even further. A large sword made entirely of flames formed, pointing at Li Shanyue.

Li Shanyue's heart turned cold. Although he was in the late Human Dan Realm, he was no match for a Heaven Dan Realm expert. Moreover, he knew nothing about the other party, but the other party's exquisite fire control and powerful soul pressure terrified him.

"Lord, what should we do now?"

Another Human Dan Realm expert asked with a pale face.

"The Jiang family has a Heaven Dan Realm expert. If we anger him, we will all perish here. Let's leave and find a way to take revenge later."

Li Shanyue said, though he was reluctant, the current situation left him no choice. The fire sword was already pointing at him, and who knew if it would shoot out at any moment.

"Still not leaving?"

The voice was like thunder, the pressure even stronger. The fire sword wavered, as if ready to strike at any moment.

Li Shanyue took a deep breath, not daring to delay any longer. He glared at Jiang Zhenhai and turned to walk towards the gate: "Go."

"Wait!"

The voice echoed again: "Leave the Murong family behind."

As soon as these words were spoken, Murong Tian's face turned white. He looked at Li Shanyue with a pleading gaze. The hidden Heaven Dan Realm expert in the Jiang family had truly frightened him. Even Li Shanyue was retreating, and if he were left behind, he would surely die.

"Murong Tian, you stay."

Li Shanyue casually said, not even looking at Murong Tian, and led the Li family away. Murong Tian was of no use to him, and he did not want to offend a Heaven Dan Realm expert for his sake.

"Lord Li, what about us?"

Yang Xiao and Chang Shan got up from the ground and ran towards the gate, but were blocked by Zhou Beichen and the fat elder. The other experts also rushed out at the same time, capturing Murong Tian.

As Li Shanyue and the Li family left, the sea of fire and soul pressure in the sky receded like a tide, disappearing in the blink of an eye. Everyone in the Lord's residence was stunned, many secretly wiping cold sweat. They had just walked through the gates of hell.

At this moment, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Who would have thought that a great expert was hidden in the Lord's residence, scaring Li Shanyue away with just a few words. The ups and downs of life came too quickly, it was quite a thrill.

"Old Zhou, take them away first."

Jiang Zhenhai said to Zhou Beichen, then walked towards Jiang Chen's courtyard.

Jiang Zhenhai pushed open the gate of the courtyard and saw tiles scattered everywhere. Looking at Jiang Chen's roof, he saw a large hole. It seemed that the Heaven Dan Realm expert was hiding in the room.

Jiang Zhenhai walked to Jiang Chen's room and saw the door tightly closed. He raised his hand to knock but then withdrew it. If there was really a Heaven Dan Realm expert in the room, it would be rash to enter.

Then, Jiang Zhenhai turned and left. He believed that when Jiang Chen came out, he would explain.

At this moment, Jiang Chen lay pale on the bed, completely unconscious, with a pool of blood on the bed, which seemed to be freshly vomited.

A hidden Heaven Dan Realm expert? There was none. Here, there was only Jiang Chen.

Just now, Jiang Chen used the Great Derivation Soul Cultivation Technique to temporarily elevate his soul to a very high level, briefly reaching the soul level of a Heaven Dan Realm expert, creating a powerful pressure. Combined with the flames of the Fire Tiger, he formed a powerful aura, greatly intimidating Li Shanyue, making everyone mistakenly believe that a Heaven Dan Realm expert was hidden here, preventing Li Shanyue from acting.

Such a heaven-defying technique could probably only be performed by Jiang Chen, the first sage in the world. Only the supreme secret technique like the Great Derivation Soul Cultivation Technique could temporarily elevate soul pressure.

However, the cost of Jiang Chen's actions was also enormous. The soul is the most fragile and important part of a person. Once damaged, it is extremely difficult to recover.

Jiang Chen used the Great Derivation Soul Cultivation Technique to forcibly elevate his soul pressure to the Heaven Dan Realm level, but also suffered a great backlash from the technique. His soul was severely damaged and impacted. The high load of elevation and support left Jiang Chen exhausted, and he fainted as soon as Li Shanyue left.
