"Kill them?!"
Many people's expressions changed drastically, their hearts trembling.
Before everyone's eyes, they were planning to kill all the members of the Luo family. This was a clear declaration of war against the Luo family.
What audacity!
Moreover, if this father and son duo truly had the guts to kill the members of the Luo family, would they not eliminate all witnesses next?
Though there were many bystanders, none could resist Qin Chuan, whose strength was akin to the ceiling of power.
At this moment, everyone stared intently at Qin Chuan, nervously awaiting his decision to see if this mysterious powerhouse would lose his composure like his son.
"Yes, let's kill them," Qin Chuan calmly nodded, tightening his fist. Instantly, the world within his palm began to collapse.
"No!!!"
"Defy fate, not the heavens!" The elders of the Luo family roared in fury, their bodies glowing as they desperately tried to resist the collapsing world.
However...
As Qin Chuan clenched his five fingers, all their resistance was in vain. The glow around their bodies dimmed, and cracks began to appear, red light shining through as their bodies seemed ready to explode.
"Wait."
At that moment, a dignified, ancient voice echoed through the sky, booming like thunder.
Qin Chuan's lips curled slightly.
He was already accustomed to such interruptions and, in fact, didn't mind them—he even found them somewhat entertaining.
Thus, he raised his head to look.
In the sky above, golden light flowed like water, and within the void, golden lotuses bloomed, shimmering brilliantly.
Thud.
Footsteps echoed.
A faint, ghostly figure appeared on one of the swaying lotuses.
Thud, thud, thud!
As he walked step by step along the golden lotuses, the figure gradually became more tangible. Finally, he stood fully materialized, overlooking everything from the sky filled with golden lotuses.
It was an old man, bald with white hair on the sides, giving him the appearance of a classic "Mediterranean hairstyle." Despite this, he exuded an immortal aura, dignified and imposing.
The energy fluctuating around him seemed not particularly powerful, yet it carried an indescribably mysterious quality, instilling a sense of awe in everyone.
"The Luo family's patriarch and I share a past. For the sake of my face, spare their lives."
The old man gazed down at Qin Chuan, speaking with an air of entitlement.
"What might I call you, senior?" Qin Chuan asked.
"I am... the Vast Sea God King!" The old man slightly raised his chin, as if intending to display his impressive status without appearing to try too hard.
Qin Chuan hadn't heard of him.
But the crowd erupted.
"The Vast Sea God King!"
"That's a renowned God King! It's said he once ranked on the God King List of Xuanhuang Heaven!"
"The figures on the God King List are all titanic figures who can establish great sects and become revered ancestors! Think of Qingye Daojun and Tunri Daozun—without the intervention of supreme powers, they are invincible!"
Everyone looked at the old man in awe.
Qin Chuan, hearing this, understood the situation.
But he remained unruffled.
Calmly, he said, "From what I sense, senior, this is merely an incarnation of your will, not your full power."
"Indeed," the Vast Sea God King said, his expression unchanged. "My true form remains sealed, and only a sliver of my will has awakened. But that's of no consequence. Where my will arrives, it's as though I am there in person."
Qin Chuan pretended to think for a moment before saying, "I don't think I'll give you that respect today."
"You dare defy me?" The Vast Sea God King's gaze sharpened, as if stars were falling and worlds were collapsing within his eyes.
An invisible pressure spread across the sky, making it hard for everyone to breathe.
In reality...
The pressure wasn't overwhelming in strength, but its level was too high—a natural suppression of the strong over the weak.
However, the light around Qin Chuan surged, blocking out the oppressive force. When one's heart is fearless, no pressure can prevail.
He stared straight at the Vast Sea God King and sneered, "Giving me orders—who do you think you are? Do I know you?"
"How dare you!" the Vast Sea God King bellowed.
He hadn't expected this mere Heavenly God-level junior to disrespect him so blatantly. It was an affront to his dignity.
"Who cares about your authority? Either make a move or get lost. You're not qualified to bark orders at me!" Qin Chuan fired back without hesitation.
"You!!!" The Vast Sea God King's eyes blazed with divine light. He was enraged but then smiled coldly. "So, you think I can't do anything because this is just an incarnation of my will?"
"If you could, you wouldn't be wasting time talking," Qin Chuan mocked.
"Then let's test that!" The Vast Sea God King raised his right hand and shouted, "Divine Might of Heaven and Earth, Boundless Vast Sea!"
Boom!
The earth shook, and vast seas appeared in both the sky and on the ground, the waves churning as if they were about to become reality. The sheer energy of it was suffocating.
"Cheap parlor tricks."
Qin Chuan snorted, clenched his fist, and threw a punch into the sky. A massive beam of light shot out, piercing the heavens!
Crack!
A shattering sound like glass breaking echoed as the illusory vast seas collapsed in an instant.
"How is this possible?!" The Vast Sea God King's pupils constricted as he looked at Qin Chuan in disbelief, his eyes narrowing as if trying to see through him.
Finally, he frowned and said coldly, "So, you've stepped into the realm of invincibility. No wonder you're so arrogant. I'll spare your life for now. But when my true form awakens, that will be your end!"
With that, he turned to leave.
With each step on the golden lotuses, his body became more ethereal, merging with the world.
This incarnation of his will was on the verge of dissipating, returning to his true form.
But just then, Qin Chuan's mocking voice rang out: "Do you think you can just leave after talking big? Did I say you could go?"
"You think you can stop me?" The Vast Sea God King turned back with a mocking grin, as though ridiculing an ant for overestimating itself.
Buzz!
Suddenly, an incomparably radiant beam of light flashed—it seemed to be a reflection from a mirror.
Boom!
Before he could react, his mind went blank, and he fell into darkness.
"What..."
"What just happened?"
The onlookers were dumbstruck as they saw the Vast Sea God King's body go rigid and fall straight down from the sky.
Like a monkey that had been electrocuted on a power line.
"Zi'er, take care of him," Qin Chuan said calmly.
"Got it!" Qin Zi gleefully took out a treasure rope, excited at the thought of dunking this boastful old man into a dung pit.
"How could this happen? How could this happen..." The members of the Luo family, still trapped in Qin Chuan's palm-sized world, were utterly despondent.
"Zi'er, you finish this."
Qin Chuan tossed the severely weakened elders of the Luo family to Qin Zi, giving him an encouraging look.
Qin Zi understood perfectly. Without hesitation, he raised his blade and swiftly ended the lives of the Luo family members.
He showed no hesitation.
Since his father had instructed him to do it, there could be no doubt. Could his father possibly harm him? Absolutely not.
