Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Mere chickens and dogs!

Ants, the lot of them!

Crushed with a single finger!

All those present were stunned, staring at Qin Heng in disbelief, utterly unconvinced by his words.

These eight individuals were the eight captains of Jiuchong Pavilion's security system!

Among them were even three Half-step Grandmasters!

The leader, with a casual wave of her hand, had turned three people into ash. Her power was incredibly formidable; she might even be a true Grandmaster!

Such a lineup was terrifying!

Yet, this Qin Heng actually called them ants, mere chickens and dogs, claiming he could crush them with a single finger!?

How ridiculous! How arrogant! It was like the senseless babbling of a lunatic! He was completely mad!

"Hahahaha!"

The woman in black laughed heartily, her body shaking with amusement. With seductive eyes, she gazed at Qin Heng, saying, "Handsome young man, you look so good, and you're so humorous. I really can't bear to kill you~"

"If you kneel and accept death now, I might still leave your corpse whole," Qin Heng said, his hands behind his back, his gaze indifferent. "Don't court your own doom."

What the hell! Has he lost his mind!?

The people around were all dumbfounded, looking at Qin Heng in disbelief.

Even now, he was still spouting such outrageous words! He must be eager to die!

"Heh, what a waste of such good looks." The woman in black's expression turned completely cold. Looking at Qin Heng with contempt, she said, "How can a Half-step Grandmaster have such a fragile mind? What a piece of trash. It seems you were scared out of your wits the moment you saw us arrive! Garbage!"

In her eyes, Qin Heng had already been scared witless, losing all rational thought. Otherwise, he wouldn't be saying such ludicrous things. The security system of Jiuchong Pavilion was incredibly powerful. Each captain was at least at the Hidden Force realm, and the three leading them were Half-Step Transcendence experts—all exceedingly mighty! Once united, even a true Grandmaster of Transcendence would be forced to retreat! Now, with all eight captains appearing simultaneously, any ordinary martial artist would face terrifying pressure, like mountains collapsing and oceans overwhelming them! Simply unbearable! This Qin Heng, with his fragile mind, was most likely scared witless!

"Big Sister, since this kid has gone mad, let's just finish him off. Han Jianglong was our peer, yet this kid sent him flying with a single slap. What a disgrace! We must eliminate him!"

"That's right, Big Sister! Take out this piece of trash. He's already been frightened stupid by us. Killing him now would be an act of mercy, a good deed!"

The men behind the woman in black began to clamor, as if Qin Heng were just a lamb to be slaughtered, whom they could kill as they pleased. They didn't need to care about his opinion at all.

The onlookers felt a chill seep deep into their bones. If even a Half-step Grandmaster like Qin Heng was a lamb to be slaughtered in their eyes, then what about ordinary people like themselves? Weren't they just ants?

"Handsome boy, I'm truly sorry," the woman in black sighed, a look of regret on her face as she gazed at Qin Heng. "I originally wanted to keep you as my personal boy-toy. Unfortunately, my subordinates all want you dead. There's nothing I can do. You'll have to die. Oh dear, how heartbreaking. Big Sister will remember you."

"Mr. Qin, be careful!" Li Qiuting couldn't help but cry out in alarm when she saw the blue flames reignite in the woman in black's hands.

Just moments ago, it was this terrifying flame! It had turned several living people into dust-like ash in an instant—horrifying to the extreme!

"Qin Heng! Run!" Jiang Pingqiao tried to pull Qin Heng away to flee. In his view, this woman in black had to be some kind of monster, definitely not human. And Qin Heng, being human, couldn't possibly be a match for a monster!

"Thinking of running now? No way! Stay and let Big Sister burn you to ashes! Hahahaha!"

Unrestrained laughter rang out as figures darted forth, instantly blocking Jiang Pingqiao's path and sealing off all of Qin Heng's escape routes.

Only one direction remained open: the direction of the woman in black's attack.

"Taste Big Sister's special skill," the woman in black said with a flirtatious smile, yet the murderous intent in her eyes was intense. A blue flame blossomed like a flower in her palm as she cooed, "Netherblue Corpse Ash Fire!!"

"What an ugly name," Qin Heng suddenly said, gently shaking his head. His gaze was calm as he casually lifted a finger, pointed it forward, and then pressed down slightly.

BOOM!

It was as if the firmament itself had collapsed. Everyone felt the void above their heads suddenly crush down, their entire bodies inexplicably and involuntarily sinking.

Simultaneously, the ground of Jiuchong Pavilion's first-floor hall exploded, spreading rapidly outward from the center to form a huge, deep pit!

What kind of power was this!? Where did this power come from!? It was as if someone had pressed a finger into soft earth, yet this was an incredibly hard, reinforced concrete structure, even paved with floor tiles! To think an invisible force could press down, shattering the void and collapsing the ground! Too horrifying!

"Aaaaah!!" A sharp, tragic scream suddenly pierced the air!

It was the woman in black!

Instantly, all eyes were drawn to her. Then, everyone's eyes widened, their expressions turning utterly shocked!

Right after the woman in black let out that incredibly tragic scream, her entire body, as if made of modeling clay, was pressed on the head by the phantom of a finger—which then pressed down!

SPLAT!

She turned into a pile of gore, thoroughly squashed, mixed into the steel-reinforced concrete and even the soil beneath. Not even a trace of bone could be seen! Utterly obliterated!

Simultaneously, the remaining seven were also crushed to death on the spot by phantom fingers that suddenly appeared. They didn't even have a chance to scream before being ground into meat paste!

Horrifying! Too horrifying!

The entire first-floor hall of Jiuchong Pavilion instantly fell deathly silent. Not a sound could be heard; it was so quiet one could hear a pin drop.

No one dared to speak. They even held their breath, making not even the slightest sound of respiration!

All gazes were focused on Qin Heng.

To be precise, they were focused on the finger he had extended and pressed slightly downward. Their expressions gradually shifted from initial shock to disbelief, and finally to horror beyond belief!

Everyone understood! Just now, it was Qin Heng who had extended a single finger and, with inconceivable power, crushed the void, shattered the earth, and instantaneously obliterated eight captain-level figures of Jiuchong Pavilion! What kind of power was this!? A god? An immortal? In any case, it definitely couldn't be the power of a mere mortal!

Many who had previously spoken disrespectfully to Qin Heng instantly turned deathly pale with fear. Their bodies trembled slightly, and their teeth chattered uncontrollably, clearly terrified to the extreme.

Li Qiuting was utterly stunned. Qin Heng had astonished her yet again. With a single finger, he had crushed three Half-step Grandmasters and five Hidden Force Martial Artists! And he had done it simultaneously, effortlessly!

Who on earth is he!?

Jiang Pingqiao was also dumbfounded. He stared blankly at his roommate, whom he had met only a few days prior, sensing that this young man was destined to be anything but ordinary!

"My apologies, the name you gave that flame earlier was too ugly," Qin Heng said, looking at the trace of blood left by the woman in black as he shook his head. "It defiled my ears. That is a grave sin."

The onlookers were utterly bewildered.

Such a reason was utterly insane! He had just crushed everyone to death on the spot! All because the name of his opponent's technique was ugly!? That was too preposterous! Too ridiculous! These people were the security captains of Jiuchong Pavilion! Five at the Hidden Force realm! Three Half-step Grandmasters! All were incredibly powerful figures, capable of crushing an ordinary person to death with a mere flick of their hand! Now, they had been crushed to death by a single finger from this freshman who looked like a country bumpkin! Just one finger! Heavens! It's too unbelievable!

Everyone present was utterly shocked! Shocked to their very core!

「Meanwhile, in the VIP lounge on the top floor of Jiuchong Pavilion.」

Wu Cheng watched the scene on the screen in disbelief, his eyes bulging, veins throbbing on his forehead, his face a mask of rage and bewilderment.

"How is this possible? How can this be!? How could this little insect..."

BOOM!

With a deafening roar, the floor of this VIP lounge exploded. Qin Heng had somehow leaped directly from the first floor of Jiuchong Pavilion to the very top!

He appeared before Wu Cheng, reached out, and seized his neck. Eyes narrowing slightly, Qin Heng chuckled, "Tell me, who's the little insect?"

"You! You!?"

Wu Cheng stared at Qin Heng in terror. He found himself seized by the neck and lifted into the air. He shrieked, "Jingfeng! Quick, save me! Make a move, and I'll reward you with one million!"
