Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Surprised by the sudden appearance of Tang Mu in front of him, A Xing found that this old acquaintance had suddenly become somewhat unfamiliar, especially the smile on his face, which gave A Xing an inexplicable sense of danger. However, no matter how dangerous Tang Mu might feel, encountering someone familiar in this situation would naturally draw anyone closer. Especially since A Xing's current situation was far from good, being surrounded and beaten by a group of Superpower Users. If not for his agility and decent strength, he would have probably been beaten to death long ago.

As soon as Tang Mu appeared, an inexplicable pressure swept over. Those Superpower Users who were previously shouting to attack and kill all froze, standing rooted in place, not daring to move an inch. Some even whispered, but the voices were too small and vague to decipher. A Xing, having no mood to deal with what these people were saying, watched Tang Mu, speculating about the meaning of the smile on Tang Mu's face, failing to notice the large group of Superpower Users behind him.

"Sorry, I'm a bit late." Tang Mu smiled slightly, a glimmer flashed through his originally clear eyes, and then he looked at the Superpower Users in front of him, speaking in a low, inexplicably authoritative tone.

"I give you a choice: submission, or escape." The wind around Tang Mu started to stir, "I'll count to three, and you have to make a choice. Those who want to escape had better leave now, or I can't guarantee what might happen."

As these words were spoken, a faint killing intent dispersed, causing the surrounding air to start fluctuating uneasily as if a bloody wind swept by, casting a faint red hue over everyone's hearts. Even though Tang Mu said these words in a casual tone, the pressure and killing intent were as tangible as reality.

Upon hearing this, A Xing's heart skipped a beat, only then noticing the wolf-like Superpower Users standing behind Tang Mu. These people wore leather armor stained with black grime, emanating a faint bloody scent. Those stains were from dried blood. The faces of these individuals were indifferent, only their eyes flickered with bloodthirsty flames. They were a group of ruthless Demons. As A Xing thought of this, his steps involuntarily retreated, seemingly wanting to distance himself from Tang Mu.

Casting a nonchalant glance at A Xing, Tang Mu began to count.

"One!"

The voice was soft, yet upon entering the ears, it felt like a thousand-pound stone smashing into the heart. Those Superpower Users didn't move, seemingly pondering the meaning of Tang Mu's words. It wasn't that they didn't know Tang Mu, just that they didn't expect him to suddenly appear here.

"Two!"

The tone was slightly heavier, causing an involuntary jolt in one's heart, like being whipped directly on the heart, followed by unbearable pain after intense convulsions.

After this word, someone finally moved. Escape was the first choice for those longing for freedom. They didn't originally belong to any force but came here wanting to form their own group. They didn't expect to encounter Tang Mu here. After hearing the second count, they began channeling all their power to flee without looking back, at incredible speed.

Since they wanted to escape, they naturally hadn't thought of joining Tang Mu's team.

"Three!"

The last word was shouted by Tang Mu, and a gale swept out with his shout, causing the surroundings to quiver violently. However, those fleeing suddenly felt heavy and stiff, subsequently falling from mid-air.

"Kill."

A word so light that only A Xing, standing by Tang Mu's side, heard him utter it. Yet, the Superpower Users behind Tang Mu, as if in agreement, let out a low roar and rushed out at unbelievable speed. Those choosing to join Tang Mu's side only saw shadows flashing by, followed by the sounds of screams from behind.

Blood suddenly splattered, and the bloody scent spread. Though the number fleeing was not small, they were slaughtered in the blink of an eye. Every corpse was decapitated without exception. The Superpower Users tossed the severed heads high, like throwing balls. As they darted back, the heads fell to the ground with dull thuds.

Silence reigned.

No one spoke, nor would anyone dare to. At this moment, nobody wished to disturb the smiling Tang Mu. These Superpower Users were well aware of the need to display submission, regardless of whether it was genuine, or else they would become like the decapitated corpses.

Tang Mu's gaze swept over the crowd, seemingly searching for something or perhaps nothing. He simply watched them like a child with new toys, with a faint smile. Yet, his demeanor was that of a king. He truly was king-like, for without Qing He, Qi Yan, Yan Luo, and without Yi Tian, William, and El, no one in this world could halt his stride. If he desired, he could trample this world underfoot.

But Tang Mu also knew he wasn't here to destroy the world, but to rule it entirely, so he didn't need mass killing. Yet, killing was necessary to establish authority, to make an example.

Now that the effect of making an example had occurred, he satisfactorily surveyed the trembling crowd, pleased with their obedient behavior, knowing that this was the life he wanted. His previous ascetic lifestyle was madness sustained only by a troubled mind. Suddenly, he felt a pang of nostalgia for Qi Yan, someone who was now missing. He remembered that Qi Yan died at the hands of Yi Tian, but it was just one of the Qi Yan.

Thankfully, Qi Yan was dead, for otherwise, he couldn't fathom what kind of conflict would arise upon encountering Qi Yan.

A faint laugh escaped Tang Mu's lips, so light that it made those around him too afraid to breathe heavily.

Gasping coldly, A Xing saw dozens of heads erupting into the air and then falling, turning his vision blood-red in an instant. If he previously didn't understand why the Five Elders suddenly released him, he now thoroughly understood their intention. Even if A Xing were free, he couldn't change this world or change anyone.

Looking at the suddenly unfamiliar Tang Mu, A Xing retreated another step, wanting to turn and leave, yet hesitant. He wasn't afraid of those Superpower Users behind Tang Mu, as long as Tang Mu didn't act, no one could stop him. But some things, if not clarified, seemed too unjust to just walk away from.
