As Wang Xiaoqiang enjoyed fine wine and delicacies at the Immortal Feast Hall within the Heavenly Abode Tower, several of his enemies were steeped in sorrow.

Among them was King Hetu of the Hetu Tribe, who was inconsolable upon learning of his son's death,

Although Wang Xiaoqiang was not the one who ultimately killed the Little Prince, King Hetu attributed the entire affair to him. Previously, Hetu had been cautious due to Wang Xiaoqiang's identity, but now, disregarding all concerns, he immediately dispatched master-level experts to assassinate Wang Xiaoqiang on his journey to the Realm Capital Biluo City.

Another who hated Wang Xiaoqiang to the core was Elder Tiann. Upon returning to the Eastern Mountain Tribe, Elder Tiann did not rush to seize control of the tribe's power; instead, he sought cultivators with Fire Element Spirit Roots to expel the Yin Fiend Aura from his body. He found three cultivators with Fire Element Spirit Roots—three of his most trusted disciples, all at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm.

However, they labored throughout the night, yet not one could swiftly remove the Yin Fiend Aura from him in a short time. Despite their efforts, they could only expel a small portion of it.

"How could this happen?... How could it happen?!" Facing this situation, Elder Tiann seemed unable to accept it, roaring with frustration!

"This Yin Fiend Aura is extremely stubborn, and Elder Tiann, the aura within your body is too dense; it cannot be completely expelled in a short time…" one disciple explained.

"How long will it take to expel it completely?" Elder Tiann asked anxiously.

"It will take at least five years," the disciple replied.

Five years, just as Wang Xiaoqiang had previously claimed.

"Five years? Ha…" a bitter smile appeared on Elder Tiann's face.

Five years of time, with the Yin Fiend Aura hindering cultivation — he would not only be unable to advance his cultivation base, but also be incapable of utilizing it, rendering him as good as a cripple. Fortunately, those he sought today were former disciples who stayed loyal to him; otherwise, if anyone harbored enmity, a single palm would have been enough to finish him off.

"If the news of me being afflicted by the Yin Fiend Aura spreads, my past enemies will surely come one by one to kill me. In this situation, the only option left is to seek that Wang Xiaoqiang…"

As Elder Tiann thought to himself, he felt a wave of melancholy. The idea of begging for help from the one he loathed filled him with regret and sorrow.

That same night, another sharing the same grief was the King of Kunshan. When the news of Kun Jiuhu's death reached his ears, he was filled with rage and grief. Although Kun Jiuhu was not his only son, he was born from his most beloved concubine, making him a precious treasure different from his other offspring.

Now, this "treasure" was shattered, and the one who broke it was Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Wang Xiaoqiang, I shall never share the same sky with you. I shall tear you to pieces and kill all your family and friends…"

The King of Kunshan roared loudly, and a wisp of the "True Meaning of Wind" escaped from the Purple Mansion within his Dantian Qi Sea. His voice, driven by this True Meaning of Wind, carried far, making the entire Kunshan Tribe tremble.

...

With more enemies accumulating against him, Wang Xiaoqiang had no choice but to be on guard, especially against the King of Kunshan, whose power was beyond what Wang Xiaoqiang could withstand. Therefore, he had to prepare early, taking measures against the future,

That night, after leaving the Heavenly Abode Tower, he quickly returned to his residence in Snow Stone City. He gathered Fairy Zixia, Ling Xuefei, Ding Chunqiu, and a few brothers, moving overnight to live at the Wind Rain Pavilion.

Though Wind Rain Pavilion was not as luxurious, it was undoubtedly safe. No matter how powerful the King of Kunshan was, he wouldn't dare enter Wind Rain Pavilion to commit murder.

Just as Wang Xiaoqiang moved into the Wind Rain Pavilion that night, the King of Kunshan arrived at Snow Stone City. He flew above the city, his Divine Sense locking onto Wang Xiaoqiang's residence, and opened a crack in the Purple Mansion deep in his Dantian Qi Sea, releasing a strand of wind. This wind transformed into a massive typhoon-like gale,

With a whoosh, it fell into Wang Xiaoqiang's residence, sweeping up all the remaining house servants and attendants, flinging them out like wooden sticks, rolling them on the ground with faces full of terror.

The King of Kunshan's Divine Sense swept through them one by one, and upon not finding Wang Xiaoqiang or his relatives and friends, he let out an extremely frustrated cold snort, waved his sleeve to retract the strand of True Meaning of Wind, then transformed into a long rainbow, rushing toward the Wind Rain Pavilion,

In a blink of an eye, he was near the Wind Rain Pavilion, and upon searching with his Divine Sense, he quickly located Wang Xiaoqiang. Seeing the enemy in front of him but unable to enter and kill, the King of Kunshan felt a deep sense of helplessness, his anger, if anything, growing even stronger.

"Wang Xiaoqiang, I'll let you live a few more days. The day you leave Wind Rain Pavilion will be your death day."

Having said this, his figure flickered as he flew toward the Kunshan Tribe.

...

Wang Xiaoqiang returned triumphantly, receiving enthusiastic acclaim from everyone at the Wind Rain Pavilion. Sect Leader Black Tornado, Deputy Tower Master Lord Anqing, along with Administrator Wenn Tianliang, and many brothers and sisters of the assassin group all expressed amazement and congratulations for Wang Xiaoqiang's achievement, even prompting Black Tornado to host a banquet in his honor.

Wang Xiaoqiang's success brought glory and satisfaction to both the Sect Leader and all at the Wind Rain Pavilion. Of course, in this Territory City elimination match, not only did Wang Xiaoqiang perform brilliantly, but Zuo Dao also did well, ranking in the top hundred and qualifying for the second match at the Realm Capital.

However, when compared, Zuo Dao's and Wang Xiaoqiang's achievements were like fireflies against starlight, incomparably disparate.

Zuo Dao bore no jealousy; instead, he felt grateful toward Wang Xiaoqiang. If not for him, Zuo Dao would have perished in the Beast Corpse Mountain Range, let alone accomplished anything.

Nonetheless, he didn't shrink back from the second round of the elimination match at the Realm Capital and decided to participate.

A week later, Wang Xiaoqiang instructed Ding Chunqiu and his two women not to go outside, and then set out with Zuo Dao, heading toward Biluo City to participate in the Realm Capital elimination match.

Before setting out, Black Tornado called him into his room. With only the two of them inside, Black Tornado still placed a Restriction on the door to prevent others from entering, then asked earnestly, "Little Qiang, have you opened the Heavenly Eye?"

The matter of opening the Heavenly Eye was known to many contestants, so Wang Xiaoqiang knew it couldn't be concealed, and he nodded,.

"And the Lightning Mark on your forehead?"

"I Refined and Transformed the lightning, using the Heavenly Eye as a guide to unleash the lightning…"

"Hmm…" Black Tornado's usually expressionless face became animated, excitement evident as he exclaimed, "The Heavenly Eye can unleash the might of lightning, it's truly like adding wings to a tiger…" (To be continued.
