The sudden appearance of the old man was quite the "surprise", causing Qin Ming to stagger back three steps.
He had anticipated that there might be an issue with the Nine Divine Chains, initially thinking it was Li Qingxu who had sealed some mysterious force that would eventually erupt.
At that time, he might face an even more powerful Li Qingxu. Yet, in this First Realm, Qin Ming feared no challenge.
In fact, he even looked forward to it.
Who would have thought that instead, an Old Deng would appear at the end?
It's like on the wedding night, when lifting the red veil, there's the face of an old man grinning at him.
All expectations turned into fright, Qin Ming did not get to see the "complete form" of Li Qingxu but instead was greeted by his infamous mentor, dreaded by gods and loathed by ghosts.
"Breaking my Nine Dragon Nourishing Body Technique comes at a price!" Li Qingxu shouted loudly, his body covered in blood, with extensive fractures, barely able to stand.
