A fierce impact struck Fang Yu's chest.

The self-destruction of a cultivator is vastly different from that of a martial artist, to the extent that martial artists can be entirely disregarded.

This self-explosion.

Even Xuantian position experts, let alone Qiangtian position ones, would suffer losses!

"Ah—"

The overwhelming desire to battle and the resolve to face death allowed the ghost servant to release all the Inner Essence within his Dantian.

It was like the detonation of an atomic bomb.

With the ghost servant at its center.

The entire training hall collapsed with a thunderous crash.

Crack.

Crack.

The training hall shattered, and debris flew in all directions.

In the center.

The intense light was blinding.

...

"Brother Yu..." Chen Daotian clenched his fists as his eyes widened!

Xu Huawen, Lin Weifeng, and the brothers from the Dark Web all watched intently at the locus of the radiance.

"Boss..."

"This..."

None of them could articulate their thoughts.

Surviving such a self-destruction seemed hopeless.

Ye Wenjun, who was always strong.

At this moment, her delicate body couldn't stop trembling.

Tears glistened in her beautiful eyes!

"Sister Wenjun, he'll be fine... he will be fine..." Shangguan Linghui, her speech unclear, grasped Ye Wenjun's arm trying to comfort her.

"I know, I know..."

But such comfort was insignificant compared to the explosion in front of them.

Some brothers from the Dark Web, unable to accept what they were seeing, knelt down one after another.

One, two, three...

Just as they submerged in this feeling of disbelief—

Clap clap. Clap clap...

Applause came from not far away.

Everyone turned their heads to look—

They saw Gongsun Chu, wearing a smile and clapping his hands, slowly approaching.

Accompanied by him was that Japanese puppet master Wutian Cilang and Fang Yu's opponent Ji Qiubai.

"I truly didn't expect the Iron Fist King to have such friends! This is unexpected..."

After finishing clapping,

Gongsun Chu turned his head to look at the rising dust.

He sighed and said: "It's a pity, you chose the wrong side... Do you know? In my Black Mountain Sect, there are countless experts like the ghost servant. Just one is enough to annihilate him."

Chen Daotian and the others warily watched Gongsun Chu.

"Gongsun Chu, don't be so pleased with yourself. Even now, you can't do anything to us," Chen Daotian said.

"Is that so?"

Gongsun Chu laughed 'hehe', "Not to mention my strength at the Great Heavenly Position... even the puppet Ji Qiubai beside me has the power of a Lesser Heavenly Position. Plus, there is a puppet master present. All of you together, are you enough to put up a fight?"

This retort.

Left them speechless.

The highest among them in the story was but an Upper Class Mystic Rank cultivator.

Together, they might not even match up to a Lesser Heavenly Position opponent.

With Fang Yu's death, they would lose their support.

"You, come here," Gongsun Chu raised his hand pointing at Ye Wenjun in the crowd, "I see you have good potential, from now on, you stay by my side."

Upon hearing this.

Everyone was stunned.

Ye Wenjun's expression remained cold, not even giving him a glance.

What kind of person was Gongsun Chu.

Always arrogant, who would dare to refuse what he desires?

"If you persist in your delusion, don't blame me," Gongsun Chu was somewhat threatening now.

Seeing this.

Chen Daotian jumped out and cursed: "How can you be so shameless? Xu Sisi from the Northern Desert didn't fancy you, don't you have any self-awareness? Look at you, did you even comb your hair this morning? Messy and still think you're handsome? The clothes you wear, acting all pretentious, with you looking like that, you don't even have the right to talk to my sister-in-law!"

This tirade.

Gongsun Chu's face twisted with rage.

Through his life of wanting for nothing, he had never encountered such a shameless ruffian.

It was as if he was dealing with a street thug with no sense of decency.

"Seeking death? Don't think that just because the spirit slave is dead, I have no way to deal with you? I alone am enough to exterminate your entire group!" Gongsun Chu said with venomous eyes.

Beside him, Ji Qiubai smiled and said:

"Young Master Gongsun, please calm your anger. Leave these rabble to me... The Young Master truly has a discerning eye, that woman you took a fancy to is actually Iron Fist King Fang Yu's woman."

"Fang Yu's woman?"

Gongsun Chu's eyebrows furrowed and then he chuckled, "Tsk tsk tsk, I like this kind of flavor... Besides, the maid by her side is also quite good-looking."

"Young Master, please wait a moment. There's no need for you to take action personally, I can handle it for you."

Ji Qiubai, as always, knew how to flatter and gauge the situation, understanding when to show his own worth.

His eyes burning with eagerness, he stepped forward.

"How unfortunate, very unfortunate... Out of all people, you just had to mess with Fang Yu... Since I, Ji Qiubai, didn't kill him personally, I will just have to use you all for some practice."

Crack.

Crack.

He flexed his joints and twisted his neck.

Gongsun Chu laughed: "Mr. Wutian, this puppet you've created isn't half bad. Though he has a strong sense of self, but... I must say, he's quite adept with human nature."

Wutian Cilang said proudly:

"Young Master Gongsun jests. Creating this puppet has taken a great deal of my effort. It's my honor that he could be of service to you."

"Very good."

Gongsun Chu said, "If there is a chance, we could collaborate on something big... I find Yanjing fascinating on this visit. Such an intriguing city has yet to be claimed, it's truly a pity..."

The two laughed heartily together.

What he meant by "unclaimed" was that there were no high-rank cultivators. Never having delved into this flashy world, Gongsun Chu found it irresistibly attractive on his first encounter.

Red lanterns and willow trees, lanes filled with beauty—a "paradise" that one could easily sink into.

...

Chen Daotian watched Ji Qiubai approaching step by step and said in a deep voice: "You go ahead, I'll hold him back."

"No, if we're going to fight, we do it together." Xu Huawen said.

"Count me in." Lin Weifeng said expressionlessly.

However —

Ye Wenjun said: "Without seeing Fang Yu come out alive, I will not leave!"

Ji Qiubai coldly stated:

"Nobody is going anywhere today."

As he spoke,

Ji Qiubai moved, pouncing like a fierce beast.

Lin Weifeng reacted swiftly, drawing his sword to strike.

Bang!

Bang bang!

Two strokes on Ji Qiubai's body merely left white marks, unable to harm him in the slightest.

"A Heavenly Position Level puppet, truly unbreakable like a rock!"

"Who would have thought, that son of a gun Ji Qiubai, could become so terrifying!"

Chen Daotian didn't have time to think further and immediately joined the battle.

Just as he charged in,

Ji Qiubai with his brute strength, slammed his palm on Lin Weifeng's sword blade.

Bang!

Lin Weifeng kept retreating, his face grim.

"So strong!"

"The sheer physical strength is astonishingly powerful!"

Xu Huawen said, "I'm in too!"

Whoosh!

He leaped to meet the challenge.

Suddenly, the three of them surrounded Ji Qiubai in an intense fight.

Both Xu Huawen and Lin Weifeng had the strength of Mystic Rank Upper Class, and Chen Daotian had just stepped into Yellow Rank. The three together could only manage a difficult fight against Ji Qiubai, and it was getting tougher.

"Break for me!" Ji Qiubai swept all around him, blocked a long sword with his arm, and sent a punch crashing forward.

Puff!

Chen Daotian, being the weakest, couldn't withstand the explosive force and slid backward.

At the same time.

Gongsun Chu walked over with a smile —

"Miss, I advise you to behave... Otherwise, don't blame me for mercilessly crushing a beauty!" He continued to move towards Ye Wenjun.
