Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

BOOM!!

Enraged to the extreme, Zeng Tianzheng crushed the cellphone in his hand. It shattered into pieces, burst into sparks, and fell to the ground!!

"AAAAH!!!" he roared furiously, all his Innate True Qi surging within him. His dreadful Evil Qi shot straight into the sky, stirring the winds and clouds and causing the heavens and earth to change color. "Qin Xuantian! Qin Xuantian! I will definitely kill you!!"

"Brother! This vile beast has gone too far!" Zeng Tianfang was also angry, his face ashen with rage as he said through gritted teeth, "But his strength indeed is not weak. Should we ask the Su Family to lend us a hand?"

Youzhou was an extremely ancient territory. Naturally, the Zeng Family wasn't the only martial arts family with a tradition there. The Su Family was also among them. Although they were not as strong as the Zeng Family, they openly had a Great Grandmaster at the peak of Innate and a Saintly Arm! Their strength was nothing to scoff at.

"The Su Family?" Zeng Tianzheng furrowed his brows slightly. He reined in his emotions, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "That's right. We should call someone from the Su Family. We can't disturb the Old Ancestor over this little beast!"

"That's the idea," Zeng Tianfang nodded and said. "Now, with the great changes in the world imminent and the rebirth of Spiritual Energy already beginning, our Old Ancestor can only take advantage of the opportunity if he awakens in his strongest state."

"I once saved Su Zhengyang's life, so this time, he can repay me by bringing the Saintly Arms," Zeng Tianzheng's eyes shone, his anger still burning as he said. "Then, with three peak Innate individuals and two Saintly Arms pressing down, Qin Xuantian will undoubtedly die!!"

"Let that arrogant little beast come and never return!!" Zeng Tianfang said with a cold and vicious expression.

「...」

The night was covered with dark clouds that obscured the moon, and even the starlight was dim. In places without lights, darkness was nearly absolute, so thick one could not see their own hand in front of them. The Zeng Family's estate, located in the suburbs, had very few streetlights, and scarcely any human figures were visible. It was already eleven o'clock at night.

The Zeng Family's compound was brightly lit, illuminating the darkness and filled with an atmosphere of solemn killing intent. This compound covered more than 10,000 square meters and was very spacious indeed. Normally, many parts were devoid of people, but tonight, every corner, every room, was guarded!!

And those present were all Martial Artists—more than 300 of them—with not a single ordinary person among them!! Among these Martial Artists, the weakest were at Open Force, the vast majority at Hidden Force. There were even Grandmasters of Transcendence among them, all fully armed with a variety of extremely sharp cold weapons, capable of bringing out their martial prowess to the utmost degree!

If this were to be known, such power would be considered shocking and unprecedented. A force of over 300 Martial Artists, including more than 20 Transcendence Realm experts and nearly 200 at Hidden Force, was just too terrifying!! In any ordinary secular organization, such might would be unimaginable!

But for a millennium-old family like the Zeng Family, it was not unusual at all. A martial arts family's heritage that spanned centuries meant their foundation was truly profound! For such a family, Grandmasters of Transcendence were really not out of the ordinary. They could even train a pig to become a Grandmaster of Transcendence if they so wished!!

In the most crucial front hall courtyard, seven Martial Artists holding different weapons were on guard. They were actually all Half-Step Innate experts!! This was the Legitimate Line of the Zeng Family!

Seven Half-Step Innates! Too horrifying! Such a lineup, with proper coordination, could easily annihilate an army of 10,000 without heavy weapons!! Too frightening!

In the middle of the courtyard was a post, and Zeng Yuechong was bound to it—this was Zeng Tianzheng's intention. He wanted Zeng Yuechong, this rebellious child, to see clearly, to watch how the Qin Xuantian he thought was incredibly strong was going to be crippled and beaten to death!!

In the main hall of the front courtyard, the ancient-scented room was already full of people. Zeng Tianzheng and Zeng Tianfang stood at the forefront, along with other high-ranking members of the Zeng Family; more than a dozen people in total were gathered here. Besides the members of the Zeng Family, there were also guests from the Su Family.

The Su Family of Youzhou was an ancient martial family with nearly 1,000 years of inheritance in the Martial Dao. They had even produced a Saint among their ancestors. As the Family Head, Su Zhengyang had personally come this time, bringing with him a Saintly Arms. He had also brought two young people, a male and a female, both around 17 or 18 years old, to let them see the world.

"Brother Su, I must thank you for coming to support me this time," Zeng Tianzheng said, sitting opposite Su Zhengyang at a table while the others stood to the side. In the entire place, only their two identities were the most prestigious, and their strengths the greatest.

"Brother Zeng saved my life once. Since someone dares to trouble the Zeng Family today, it is my duty to help," Su Zhengyang said. He was a muscular man in his forties with a strong build and a Precious Sword on his back; every move he made seemed to carry killing intent.

"Hahaha! Brother Su, your nobility is indeed great!" Zeng Tianzheng smiled slightly, glanced at the two young people behind Su Zhengyang, and said, "These two are... they seem rather unfamiliar."

These two young people weren't very strong. The boy was passable, at the level of Half-Step Transcendence, but the girl had only just entered Hidden Force. Why has Su Zhengyang brought them here?

"Hahaha, Brother Zeng, you must not underestimate them."

Su Zhengyang chuckled. "These are two extraordinary talents I found while in Tianhai. Moreover, they are disciples of a branch line of my Su Family, so I brought them over directly.

"Come, come, Mingli, Yiyi, greet the Family Head of the Zeng Family. Call him Elder Zeng."

These two young people were none other than Su Mingli and Su Yiyi, the grandchildren of Su Beihe, the master of the Su Martial Arts Center in Tianhai. Both had a good relationship with Qin Heng.

"Greetings, Elder Zeng," Su Mingli and Su Yiyi said to Zeng Tianzheng, then stood quietly to the side, not daring to disturb their conversation.

"Indeed, both are exceptional talents with high aptitude!" Zeng Tianzheng appraised Su Mingli and Su Yiyi, nodded slightly, then said to Su Zhengyang, "Brother Su, that Qin Xuantian is not easy to deal with. Are you prepared?"

Qin Xuantian!?

Hearing this, Su Mingli and Su Yiyi, who were standing nearby, were shocked. They had only known their Family Head had brought them to witness a great battle and broaden their horizons, but they had not expected it to involve Qin Heng!

They had a good relationship with Qin Heng and were friends; naturally, they knew Qin Xuantian was Qin Heng's alias.

What was going on??

Could it be that Qin Heng was the one who would battle the Zeng Family!?

What was Qin Heng doing!

This was the Zeng Family, a martial arts family with 1,000 years of inheritance, a deep heritage, and incomparably formidable strength! And he dared to provoke such a family!!

Did he not value his life!?

Their understanding of Qin Heng's strength was still based on his battle with Hong Tianshu on the Huangpu River. They thought Qin Heng was only at the Half-Step Innate level.

Su Zhengyang, not noticing the reactions of Su Yiyi and Su Mingli, chuckled to Zeng Tianzheng, "Brother Zeng jests. What preparations are needed for a mere wild Martial Artist? You and I both wield Saintly Arms. Even a peak Semi-Saint would have to battle to know the outcome. What is Qin Xuantian? A mere ant, nothing more! Either of us could easily squash him, hahaha!"
