“Aaaah!” A scream broke the temporary moment of silence.

Everyone turned and saw Ice Phoenix with half an ear hanging from her mouth, crazily laughing, while one of the Four Young Sirs of Guanshan had half his face covered in blood.

This person was a cultivator, so such an injury wasn’t a big deal.

The problem was that it had been too sudden and unprompted, so he had screamed in pain.

Enraged, he roared, “You foul woman!”

He raised his hand and attacked Ice Phoenix.

While Ice Phoenix was a Soul Transformation cultivator, Tang Jie had sealed all of her power, so she could only watch this palm chopping down. Yet she was fearless, even moving to meet the blow. S~aʀᴄh the N0vlFire(.)nt website on Ggl to access chapters of nvels early and in the highest quality.

The palm struck her in the chest, and she flew backward, throwing up blood.

That Young Sir of Guanshan was going to deliver a follow-up strike, but Yiyi reacted, crying out, “Stop!” A green beam of light flew from her hands and blocked that man’s attack.

With a sharp cry, Young Lady Xin attacked Yiyi again, and the other cultivators of Guanshan City also began to join in.

These people all belonged to the same city, and with a common enemy, Yiyi was no match for them.

Tang Jie was alarmed and was about to come to the rescue, but he discovered that Guanshan City was still under its formation, and he would be too late. He turned and shouted, “City Lord Xin, hurry and have them stop.”

Xin Tianchou snorted, “Your people started it first.”

He didn’t mind letting them go, but he had just spoken to Tang Jie with the attitude of a victor, and he would lose face if he immediately started doing as Tang Jie said. Thus, he wanted to at least say a few words to give himself the right atmosphere before finally saying at the very end that he would make an exception, showing off his magnanimity.

But Tang Jie didn’t give him time to play his games.

The crowd below was enraged and already attacking Yiyi, forcing her to let out the combat puppet and bean soldiers. But even this didn’t seem like enough, and she would be forced to use the Treasure Cosmos Formation diagram soon. Once it was used, casualties would be inevitable, which would make things even harder to resolve. Worst of all was that Yiyi also needed to protect Ice Phoenix, which further decreased the time she could hold out.

Tang Jie had no time to waste talking with him, so he immediately punched at the formation.

His forcing open the formation was no different from slapping Xin Tianchou in the face, and he roared, “Such audacity!”

He sent a gust of icy wind at Tang Jie.

He had bought into the fiction that Tang Jie was in a weak state, so he didn’t even use a Divine Connection, thinking that a casual attack would be enough to defeat him.

But Tang Jie didn’t have any patience, turning around and punching. “Out of my way!”

Boom!

Devil Crushing Fist!

Tang Jie was no longer holding back, using the first move of the Combat Emperor Catalog. The immense force of the punch blasted into Xin Tianchou, and Xin Tianchou felt like an unprecedented power was crushing him.

This power was like a meteor descending from the heavens, smashing into the city’s formation in a multicolored explosion.

The intense impact made everyone raise their heads in shock, and what they saw was their mighty City Lord whose prodigious powers had forced his opponent to concede being smashed into the formation. They were stupefied, not understanding what was going on.

“Bastard, you… sneak attacked me!” Xin Tianchou stubbornly clung to his dignity. At this key moment, he had come up with a bright idea, implying that Tang Jie had simply ambushed him rather than defeating him in a contest of strength.

Tang Jie snorted. “Then what about this one?”

He unleashed another punch, blasting apart almost all of Xin Tianchou’s body.

Shocked, Xin Tianchou hastily used Origin Return to restore his body, but a moment later, Tang Jie flew up, grabbed Xin Tianchou, and threw him at the formation. “And what about this!”

He treated Xin Tianchou like a sandbag, swinging him at the formation again and again.

Just like that, he used Xin Tianchou as a weapon against the formation.

Everyone in the city was dumbfounded.

Xin Tianchou, who had just been reveling in victory, was now being beaten up by Tang Jie without being able to fight back in the slightest, turning everyone’s world upside-down.

Xin Tianchou was also very unfortunate. He was also very strong, but all of his powers were almost completely countered by Tang Jie.

Moreover, he had allowed Tang Jie to get close, having failed to realize the true extent of Tang Jie’s power. As a result, Tang Jie had been able to get multiple blows in and completely suppressed him, removing even his ability to counterattack.

His Origin Return was formidable, but each of Tang Jie’s attacks dealt him serious damage that he had no choice but to immediately restore, which left him no time to strike back. This created an endless and miserable cycle.

In the end, Xin Tianchou’s Time Dao power was not infinite, and if this continued, his death was inevitable. Finally, he let go of his pride and shouted, “No more fighting! I concede, I surrender!”

He raised his hands high in the air.

Tang Jie’s hand stopped, and he grasped Xin Tianchou as one would hold up a chicken, shouting, “Open up the formation!”

Xin Tianchou hastily pointed at the formation, upon which it opened.

Yiyi grabbed Ice Phoenix and flew out of the city.

Tang Jie saw that they were fine and sighed in relief. He then glared at Ice Phoenix and said, “I’ll make you pay for this.”

Ice Phoenix was unafraid, laughing, “And how do you plan to do that? Kill me? That’s exactly what I want! Hahaha!”

Tang Jie was enraged, but he had no means of venting this anger, so he turned and gave Xin Tianchou another punch.

Xin Tianchou had just recovered from his injuries, but this punch floored him once more. His face twisted as he said, “Why are you still hitting me…”

Tang Jie ignored him, continuing to glare at Ice Phoenix. “I warned you before to not think about trying to escape, nor should you attack someone who shouldn’t be attacked, that if you broke the rules even once, I would make you suffer. You still did it, so starting from now, I will not only seal your cultivation, but also your ability to move. Your eyes will not see, your mouth will not speak, and you will even have to be fed by someone else. You did this to yourself!”

Ice Phoenix blinked at him. “Then what if I need to go do my business? Are you going to help me with that too?”

Bang! Tang Jie punched Xin Tianchou in the stomach.

“Why is it me again…” Xin Tianchou groaned in pain.

He was a Deification cultivator and the ruler of a city, but he was serving as the target of Tang Jie’s rage in front of the entire city.

He wanted to strike back, but Tang Jie’s ocean of strength had completely suppressed him, and his Time Dao power had been completely emptied. Now, he didn’t dare to use Origin Return, relying on spell arts to heal himself.

Young Lady Xin didn’t dare to believe her eyes, shrieking, “Father!”

Yiyi looked at her in scorn, as if saying, Now you understand who’s more powerful, right?

Tang Jie was still glaring at Ice Phoenix, the two of them like two fighting roosters, neither backing down.

In the end, Tang Jie helplessly said, “Yiyi, watch her and make sure she doesn’t cause trouble again.”

“Oh,” Yiyi said, taking custody of Ice Phoenix.

Ice Phoenix laughed. “Tang Jie, is that all you’re going to do, just lock me away? What else can you do to me?”

Rendered speechless from anger by Ice Phoenix, Tang Jie punched Xin Tianchou again, sending him from the sky down to the ground.

The mighty City Lord was being swatted around like a ball, and the crowd cried out in fear and ran off.

By the time the bruised Xin Tianchou crawled out from his crater, Tang Jie had already left with Yiyi and Ice Phoenix.

“Bastard!”

Xin Tianchou had never been so humiliated before, and as he watched Tang Jie leave, his eyes blazed with anger.

“Father!” Young Lady Xin ran over.

As his daughter ran over, Xin Tianchou suddenly grew angry. He swatted his hand, bowling over Young Lady Xin.

Young Lady Xin hadn’t expected this treatment, saying in shock, “Father, you…”

Xin Tianchou pointed at her and cursed, “It’s all because of you! If it weren’t because you caused trouble all day, I would have never ended up like this! My reputation is in ruins because of you!”

Once word of his defeat got out, everyone would know of his humiliation, and he would lose all his dignity. Many people would even begin to doubt his strength, and the troubles would come one after another. This thought made him even more indignant.

But in the middle of his sorrow and despair, he suddenly sensed something strange.

Xin Tianchou turned and saw a purple energy gathered on the ground nearby.

“This is…” Xin Tianchou blurted out in shock.

He forgot all his pain and rushed over.

This purple energy came from a pool of blood on the ground.

This blood was black and brown, but it was infused with a bizarre demonic power that would make one dizzy if one stared at it for too long.

Even though this dizzying effect didn’t work on Xin Tianchou, he sensed the demonic power contained within.

“Demon blood! This is demon blood!” Xin Tianchou shouted. “Where did demon blood come from in my Guanshan City? Did a demon sneak in?”

This demon blood represented an extremely grave incident!

Xin Tianchou stopped hesitating and used the last of his Time power.

This time, rather than using it to heal himself, he used it on the area, reversing time to see what had happened. He needed to see where this blood had come from.

This was the other function of Origin Return, but as Xin Tianchou had chosen to focus on combat, he rarely used it in this way.

Fortunately, this demon blood was clearly fresh, and Xin Tianchou had enough Dao power to reverse it.

As time was reversed, Xin Tianchou followed the timeline down, witnessing all that had happened in this area.

Quickly, Xin Tianchou saw the blood appear on the ground, and then he saw the blood fly into the air and land in the mouth of a woman.

Ice Phoenix!

That cold woman with extremely cunning eyes!

Xin Tianchou trembled as the illusion disappeared and the time reversal ended.

Xin Tianchou cried out, “Tang Jie, you scoundrel! Colluding with Primordial Fog! Hahahaha, this time, you’re dead!”

His face twisted into the smile that came from the glee of reporting an enemy.
