Qin Chuan's slap was loud, but he didn't use much force; after all, Qin Chuan could kill someone with force.
Even without much force, it swelled the guard's face badly, making it look like a pig's head.
The guard had never suffered such humiliation, so he opened his mouth to say something, or rather, to curse, but Qin Chuan raised his hand again.
*Slap!*
Another slap landed on the other side of his face, instantly swelling that side up, making his face look like a giant steamed bun.
*Ugh…*
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't speak anymore. Qin Chuan stopped hitting him, pointing to the door: "Are you still going to stop us?"
The guard was dazed, his head buzzing, unable to hear anything, his vision blurry.
The others didn't dare stop Qin Chuan anymore, but one of them had already run into the city lord's mansion, presumably to report the news, and soon they heard shouts.
"Help! Someone's attacking people at the City Lord's Mansion! Someone's trying to break in and kill people..."
This shout quickly spread throughout the City Lord's Mansion, naturally alarming many people, though not many came to watch.
A few lunatics appearing these days wasn't a big deal; the City Lord's Mansion had people to handle it.
However, chaos soon returned because two groups of people went to the city, only to be slapped back by a single beam of light.
The first guards were somewhat understandable; after all, the gatekeepers were of low cultivation, and being City Lord's Mansion guards, they rarely caused trouble. Besides,
placing a master as a gatekeeper was an insult to a master, but the second and third groups still failed, forcing the City Lord's Mansion to take it seriously.
Especially the third time—the second group was somewhat forgivable, but the third group was definitely a master, yet the message they sent was that they'd been slapped back.
"Don't hit someone in the face," as the saying goes. Being slapped in the face three times in a row was a direct insult to the City Lord's Mansion, enraging them. For years, no one had dared to be so disrespectful.
The fourth group sent was still responsible for the City Lord's Mansion's security, but this time it was the strongest protector, an elder of the City Lord's Mansion.
Qin Chuan didn't enter the City Lord's Mansion; he and his junior sister waited at the gate for the group to arrive.
This time, about ten people came, led by a middle-aged man, burly with a thick beard, a large nose, and small eyes that radiated a cold, sharp light.
This man gave off a very uncomfortable feeling—fierce and dangerous. Although he looked quite old, he still exuded a sharp edge.
"Who are you people? Are you tired of living and coming to the City Lord's Mansion to cause trouble?" The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, the cold light almost tangible.
His eyes, already small, were now reduced to mere slits, but the glint in them was bright, almost blinding.
Qin Chuan found the other man's perspective laughable. His current realm and strength had reached a rather mystical level.
Although his strength was at the Immortal Emperor level, and even lower than that, his combat prowess was beyond normal comprehension.
"If we beat you, will anyone stop us?" Qin Chuan asked.
"What do you mean?" the man said coldly.
"I'm saying I don't have time to waste here. If you can make the decisions, stay here. If we beat you, others will come, so get lost and call your men to save trouble." Qin Chuan said with a smile.
"Kid, you're courting death." The man gritted his teeth, staring at Qin Chuan like a venomous snake.
Qin Chuan shook his head: "Looks like I can't save myself any trouble today. Since that's the case, I won't be polite."
"Junior Sister, let's go in!" Qin Chuan turned to his junior sister.
"Okay!"
his junior sister nodded.
Qin Chuan led the way towards the City Lord's Mansion, each step landing with a dull thud.
Thump!
The earth trembled, as if about to overturn.
Not only that, a strange power, seemingly emanating from three points, traveled along bizarre paths directly to the feet of those around him.
This power surged into their bodies, appearing initially small, but they quickly realized it was just the beginning.
As Qin Chuan continued forward, each step he took
increasing strength, even surpassing imagination. This was Qin Chuan's combined power of "The Great Power of the World" and "Mountain and River Collapse."
At its peak, it could shatter mountains, rivers, sun, and moon with a single step—a legendary realm, of course, whether it was truly possible was highly uncertain. After all, Qin Chuan hadn't felt it was possible before.
But now, having encountered so many things previously incomprehensible and unimaginable, he now found them perfectly normal and natural.
Therefore, the greater one's ability, the larger the world becomes; without reaching that level, one cannot even know or imagine its existence.
Position determines perspective!
The elder of the City Lord's Mansion, this middle-aged man, was shocked. He had previously been dismissive, but now, when he tried to attack, he found himself powerless to retaliate.
This terrified him, because killing Qin Chuan now would be too easy. He didn't know if Qin Chuan would kill him, especially since the other party had already given him a chance.
The man from the City Lord's Mansion trembled with fear, remembering his previous insolence. He knew that offending a powerful figure meant certain death.
*Poof!*
Qin Chuan killed him. He hadn't killed those people before because they hadn't reached this level. At this level, everyone had to take responsibility for themselves.
In other words, Qin Chuan wouldn't bother with those people before because they weren't of a high enough caliber, but this person was. If he acted like those people before, he would be courting death.
This completely stunned the surrounding crowd. After all, it had been many years since someone had dared to kill someone in the City Lord's Mansion, especially an elder of the City Lord's Mansion.
Although the City Lord's Mansion had many elders, even the least valuable elder was still an elder of the City Lord's Mansion, bearing the label of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Insolence!"
Just as Qin Chuan and his junior sister stepped inside, a deep shout rang out, but no one was seen; the sound was like a thunderclap in the sky.
Qin Chuan smiled, seemingly unaffected: "Come out yourself, or should I drag you out?"
"Young man, you truly don't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
As the voice rang out, a handsome middle-aged man approached from afar, and by the time he finished speaking, he was already standing in front of Qin Chuan, as if he had been standing there all along.
"You really have no right to act like an old man in front of me. I don't like people who act like they're old, and you don't even have the right to do so," Qin Chuan said, looking at the man who looked to be only middle-aged.
