"Buffoons, kneeling to accept death?"

Qiu Beihai's expression was one of absolute astonishment. His eyes widened as he stared at Qin Heng, and then he burst into laughter. "Hahaha! Qin Xuantian, don't think that just because you're ranked first on the Earth List in China, you can truly claim to be invincible under the heavens! The world is vast, not limited to Mainland China. The world beyond is far more powerful than you can imagine. A youngster, not even twenty years old, being hailed as invincible in China... It just shows how much the Martial Dao world in China has regressed!"

"That's right! Master is correct! In our overseas Hongmen, anyone who dares to claim invincibility would be beaten so severely his own mother wouldn't recognize him, and that includes Grandmasters too!"

"Indeed! Ranking first on the Earth List, claiming invincibility—such titles aren't something just anyone can shoulder. You, a kid barely out of his teens, are not worthy. Kneel down to our master immediately, kowtow in admission of your error, and then take your own life. That way you might be spared some suffering."

The several youths behind Qiu Beihai were also mocking Qin Heng. These people were all from the overseas Hongmen, far away in America, and didn't understand the situation in China. As for Qin Heng's strength, they had only a superficial understanding. Therefore, in their view, although Qin Heng might possess some ability, he certainly wouldn't be too strong. After all, his age was apparent. How powerful could a seventeen or eighteen-year-old be, even if by some fluke he had reached the Transcendence Realm? Probably not even as good as some martial artists with rich combat experience in Hidden Force.

"Qin Xuantian, kneel and kowtow to me for mercy," Qiu Beihai said, his face full of contempt. "I am a high-ranking member of the overseas Hongmen, second to few and above tens of thousands. My status is supremely noble. For me to come and kill you is your honor!"

"Absolutely! Master is a globally renowned figure! Not even Hong Tianshu can compare to him! Having him personally take action to kill you is an enormous blessing you've cultivated over several lifetimes!"

"Qin Xuantian! Kneel immediately! If you anger our master, your parents in Beijing and your sister at home will all suffer a terrible fate! Kneel down and accept your death!!"

Qiu Beihai and his disciples were unbearably arrogant. They didn't take Qin Heng seriously at all.

"Such noise!" Qin Heng frowned. With a casual wave of his hand, seven blasts of energy, like invisible swords, flew from his fingertips, instantly piercing the air.

SLASH! SLASH!!

A series of sharp whistling sounds cut through the air. The seven martial artists who had mocked Qin Heng all widened their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief. Their foreheads were pierced clean through, leaving bloody holes! They were doomed!!

THUD! THUD!

The bodies of the seven men collapsed to the ground, utterly silent.

HISS!

Witnessing this, Chu Qingshan couldn't help but gasp, his gaze flickering uncertainly toward Qin Heng as profound horror flashed in his eyes. He hadn't expected the young Qin Heng to be so decisively ruthless, showing no mercy at all! At this thought, a cold sweat broke out on him. He suddenly felt somewhat grateful for Qiu Beihai's arrival. If Qiu Beihai hadn't arrived and interrupted his conversation with Qin Heng... If things had continued as they were, I might have become another corpse on the ground. Qin Heng is definitely no ordinary young expert!

So this is what it means to be ruthlessly decisive! This is true ruthlessness!

Many older, more calculating Grandmasters lacked his decisiveness!

"Brat! You're courting death!!" Qiu Beihai roared, instantly furious at seeing his disciples brutally killed. He immediately surged his Internal Force throughout his body. Spreading his hands wide, he lunged fiercely at Qin Heng, like a ferocious tiger pouncing from a mountain to hunt its prey.

In the overseas Hongmen, Qiu Beihai held a very high status; few dared to defy his will. He had originally thought that by revealing his identity, this brat Qin Heng would kneel and beg for mercy. Unexpectedly, not only did Qin Heng refuse, but he also killed several of his accompanying disciples.

"Damn it! Brat! You have no idea what kind of existence you've provoked!" Qiu Beihai bellowed, his voice like thunder. "The Sun Temple's bounty is as good as mine! The overseas Hongmen will kill your parents! Your entire family is finished!!"

When a Grandmaster attacked, the air itself seemed to shriek. The immense power vibrated through the surroundings, causing the entire room to tremble. In the kitchen, Chu Yun and her mother were terror-stricken. As ordinary people, the sight of someone wielding such tremendous power left them too frightened to speak.

"Grandmaster Qin, be careful!" Chu Qingshan, also incredibly shocked, yelled. "Qiu Beihai holds a very high position in the overseas Hongmen! His strength is immense, and his attack..."

BANG!

Suddenly, with a muffled thud, Qiu Beihai's attack came to an abrupt halt. Qin Heng had merely lifted a hand, casually grabbing Qiu Beihai by the neck. He lifted the man's entire body off the ground as effortlessly as if plucking up a small chicken.

"You... you... you!" Qiu Beihai stared at Qin Heng, his face a mask of astonishment, disbelief, and terror. "Impossible! How could you capture me in a single move?!"

"Speak. Why did you come to kill Chu Qingshan?" Qin Heng asked coolly.

"You think I'll tell you?" Qiu Beihai sneered. "Kid, I advise you to release me immediately. If I die here, the overseas Hongmen will be enraged. They are one of the largest organizations in the world! If you have offended Hongmen, as long as you're on Earth, no one will be able to save you. Release me now while there's still a chance, otherwise..."

CRACK!

Qin Heng casually snapped Qiu Beihai's neck and tossed the corpse aside. He sneered, "An ant-like creature daring to clamor before me? Truly courting death."

Chu Qingshan, standing by, was so frightened that his body shook and his teeth chattered.

Arrogant! Utterly arrogant!

"Grandmaster Qin, please don't be angry, but I must say, you've invited great trouble!" Chu Qingshan sighed. "The Hongmen... they are too powerful. They are not to be trifled with!"

"Currently, on this Earth, there is no one I, Qin Xuantian, cannot afford to provoke," Qin Heng sneered. "Even if it were the President of America who offended me, I would kill him if I so wished. What is a mere Hongmen in comparison? If they dare to come, I'll kill them all with a single punch."

"This..." Chu Qingshan was suddenly at a loss for words. Qin Heng's aura was simply heaven-shaking and earth-shattering, utterly incomparable. He seemed like an existence that could not possibly belong to this mortal world!

"Enough of other matters," Qin Heng said, looking at Chu Qingshan coolly. "Tell me everything you were hiding before. Don't try any more clever tricks."

"Yes, Grandmaster Qin." Chu Qingshan nodded repeatedly, thoroughly intimidated by Qin Heng. "It's like this... Back then, when I accidentally stumbled into that immortal mountain, the palace I saw was called... Lingxiao Palace..."
