59: Carrying the head to visit old friends

Qingtian Sword Sect, Xiao Tingsheng's residence.

“What, what did you say? Lu Fengming actually killed Town South King Zhao Qingshan of the Tianyu Empire? How is that possible?”

Upon hearing the report from his subordinate, Xiao Tingsheng’s face had already turned ashen, looking extremely unsightly.

Who was Town South King Zhao Qingshan?

He was a top-tier powerhouse at the Spirit Division Ninth Stage, just one step away from entering the Combination Realm.

How much time had passed for Lu Fengming to already possess the ability to kill Zhao Qingshan?

This was simply unbelievable.

Previously, Xiao Tingsheng had continuously provoked those powerhouses, and with the system's power, he had successfully advanced to the Spirit Division Stage.

Furthermore, with his continuous efforts during this period, he had barely managed to reach the Spirit Division Third Stage.

For this, Xiao Tingsheng had been proud for half a day.

After all, progressing from the Nascent Soul Ninth Stage to the Spirit Division Third Stage meant an increase of four minor stages.

To achieve such great success in such a short period was enough to make all cultivators proud.

Even Xiao Tingsheng was no exception.

Just as Xiao Tingsheng believed his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, and that the next time he saw Lu Fengming, he would surely be able to kill him and avenge himself, he heard a thunderbolt-like piece of news.

Lu Fengming was actually able to kill Town South King Zhao Qingshan, who possessed the Spirit Division Ninth Stage.

That was Lord Zhennan of the Tianyu Empire, not just any ordinary Spirit Division Stage powerhouse.

Moreover, the news Xiao Tingsheng received was that Lu Fengming did not fight alone and directly killed Town South King Zhao Qingshan on the front lines.

Instead, Zhao Qingshan led the Tianyu Empire's most valiant and bloodthirsty Wild Wolves Unit, as well as Zhao Qingshan's personal guard.

Under the siege of dozens of people, Lu Fengming still moved with ease.

He even killed Zhao Qingshan right in front of everyone.

What a terrifying feat this was!

The thought of all this made Xiao Tingsheng's originally delicate face begin to twitch uncontrollably.

His heart sank to the bottom.

Lu Fengming knew his background thoroughly, understanding that Xiao Tingsheng was a transmigrator and a system owner.

For a transmigrator, the last thing they wanted to see was the appearance of other transmigrators.

Because in this world, one transmigrator was enough.

As for others, it was better for them to disappear completely from this world.

Xiao Tingsheng believed that not only did he have this mindset, but Lu Fengming also harbored such thoughts.

The other party would surely try every means to find Xiao Tingsheng, and even eliminate him.

Once Lu Fengming truly found his whereabouts and came to kill him, what awaited Xiao Tingsheng would be a death without a burial place.

Although the Qingtian Sword Sect, where Xiao Tingsheng resided, was not an unknown entity.

The Qingtian Sword Sect possessed more than ten Spirit Division Stage powerhouses, and even Combination Realm powerhouses.

Xiao Tingsheng's grandfather, as the Grand Elder of the Qingtian Sword Sect, was also a top-tier powerhouse at the Combination Realm.

He ranked third in the entire Qingtian Sword Sect.

However, in the entire Qingtian Sword Sect, apart from his own grandfather and the other two top-tier Combination Realm powerhouses, the rest of the powerhouses, even those at the Spirit Division Ninth Stage, were no match for Lu Fengming.

Since the other party could so easily kill that top-tier powerhouse at the Spirit Division Ninth Stage, dealing with the Qingtian Sword Sect's Spirit Division Stage powerhouses would certainly be no problem.

The thought of all this made Xiao Tingsheng's scalp tingle, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead like popping beans.

His entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.

What to do?

What should be done now?

If he had known Lu Fengming was so terrifying, he shouldn't have provoked such a formidable enemy.

At least before his strength was sufficient, he absolutely should not have provoked Lu Fengming.

Now, it was like trying to hunt a tiger but ending up like a dog.

He failed to kill Lu Fengming, but instead got himself into trouble and became a target of Lu Fengming.

“Young Master Sun… Young Master Sun…”

Just then, a subordinate rushed in hurriedly.

He was gasping for air while shouting in a panicked voice.

Hearing the subordinate's frantic shouts, Xiao Tingsheng's already displeased face quickly darkened, and he frowned, letting out a cold snort, “Why are you so flustered? What happened?”

“Young Master Sun, there’s a young master outside the residence, claiming to be your good friend.

He says he has something extremely important to tell you personally.”

Hearing Xiao Tingsheng's words, the subordinate took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and after stopping his panting, he hurriedly reported this major matter to Xiao Tingsheng.

Hearing the words “good friend” made Xiao Tingsheng’s pupils constrict, and his body instinctively trembled.

Good friend?

Where did Xiao Tingsheng have any good friends?

He had no friends, but he did have an enemy.

Could it be…

The thought of that possibility made Xiao Tingsheng even more nervous.

His face was full of panic, looking as if he had seen a ghost.

“Young Master Sun, could it be that person really is your good friend?”

Seeing Xiao Tingsheng’s exaggerated reaction, the subordinate asked somewhat nervously and with a hint of doubt.

“I don’t know him. What kind of person am I? How could I know ordinary commoners?”

Xiao Tingsheng subconsciously shook his head, quickly waved his hand, and said unkindly, “Tell him to go back where he came from. Don’t bother me with such trivial matters.”

“No matter what, we are fellow provincials, Brother Xiao. Your refusal seems a bit inappropriate.”

Just as Xiao Tingsheng was about to have his subordinate send the person away, a playful voice came from behind him, he knew not when.

Immediately after, a dark figure appeared in Xiao Tingsheng's sight.

The person was walking leisurely, strolling along at a relaxed pace.

Upon closer inspection, it was not difficult to notice that the person was actually carrying a head in his hand.

The head was dripping with fresh blood, clearly just obtained.

When he clearly saw the true face of the newcomer, Xiao Tingsheng couldn't help but be shocked.

Especially looking at the head the other person was carrying in his hand, Xiao Tingsheng's pupils involuntarily dilated, and his eyes widened like copper bells.

His weak body trembled incessantly.

“Xian’er… Xian’er…”

Xiao Tingsheng was trembling all over, staring intently at the head, his face filled with panic.

He raised his head, looking at the face full of playful smiles.

Xiao Tingsheng felt as if his entire being was about to completely collapse.

He instinctively took steps backward, retreating continuously.

“Brother Xiao, I wonder if this head is beautiful? Do you like it?”

“But looking at your expression, Brother Xiao, it seems this head belongs to someone you care about.”

“Having traveled a long way, I didn’t bring much of a gift. I specifically brought this head to you, Brother Xiao, as a meeting gift.”

Lu Fengming's face always held a hint of playful smile.

As he spoke, he gently tossed the head in his hand directly over.

Seeing the flying head, Xiao Tingsheng felt his legs go limp, and he involuntarily fell to his knees.

His eyes were filled with tears.

His entire body swayed and trembled incessantly.

It turned out that the owner of this head was none other than Ye Xian'er, Xiao Tingsheng's childhood sweetheart, his playmate from a young age, and the woman Xiao Tingsheng loved most in his life.

Now.

Her head had actually been forcibly removed by Lu Fengming.

Not only that, he even arrogantly threw the head at him.

He involuntarily raised his head, staring intently at Lu Fengming.

His eyes were filled with a malevolent expression.

His eyeballs were bloodshot, wishing he could swallow Lu Fengming whole, chop him into minced meat.
