"Qin Heng, are you, are you alright?" Xia Shuang looked at Qin Heng with immense worry. The cloth gag in her mouth had been removed, so she could finally speak.

Just now, Qin Heng had shattered a Range Rover with a single palm strike, which shocked Xia Shuang immensely. It was simply superhuman strength, and she had thought they might actually be able to escape danger this time.

However, upon hearing Hong Zhenhai's words, her heart sank once again.

Even though Xia Shuang didn't know what an Innate Grandmaster was, she could tell from Hong Zhenhai's words that Qin Heng was poisoned—and it was a poison specifically targeting him!

It would take effect within a minute!

By then, Qin Heng would lose all his strength and be at the mercy of others!!

Why!

Why did this have to happen?

Xia Shuang bit her lip, looked at Hong Zhenhai, and said, "What exactly do you want to do!? What evil purpose do you have!"

In her heart, Qin Heng had become the superhero who would save the world, a guardian of peace on Earth! Just like in the movies, there would be villains harboring evil intentions, weakening superheroes with kryptonite, then clearing away obstacles to achieve their malevolent goals!

"Hahaha! Girl! You've been watching too many movies, haven't you!" Hong Zhenhai burst into laughter, looked at Qin Heng, and said, "Qin Xuantian, are you feeling weak and listless now, your True Qi rapidly dissipating?"

His three subordinates also laughed loudly.

Their gaze at Qin Heng no longer held fear, replaced instead with a condescending attitude and faces full of mockery.

The one from Indonesia, acting like a lewd monkey, eyed Xia Shuang, his saliva nearly dripping, itching to pounce on her and assault her!

However, without an order from Hong Zhenhai, he dared not act rashly.

"Qin Xuantian, there's no need to pretend to be strong. This poison is from my father's lucky encounter years ago, an ancient and strange poison. No matter how profound your skills, you will succumb to it!"

Hong Zhenhai watched Qin Heng triumphantly and said, "By now, your Innate True Qi should be almost depleted. I bet you can't even stand steady. Don't put on a brave face, just kneel down. Kneel before me, and I'll grant you a swift death."

"Who exactly are you people!!" Xia Shuang looked at Hong Zhenhai, her eyes suddenly void of fear, and she shouted sternly, "Don't you dare hurt Qin Heng!"

"Girl! You can barely save your own skin! And you still want to protect this cripple?" Hong Zhenhai looked at Xia Shuang with a mocking face, then said to his three subordinates, "You three, hold down this chick. I'm going to have my way with his woman in front of Qin Xuantian! Hahaha!"

"Alright! General, rest assured, we'll hold her tight! Hahaha!"

"Just enjoy yourself, General, no need to worry!"

The three men approached Xia Shuang, their eyes filled with excitement, the thrill of destroying something beautiful!

In Nanyang, especially those Indonesian monkeys, that's just how twisted their psychology is!!

"What do you think you're doing!!" Xia Shuang clenched her teeth and glared at the three men, but still stood in front of Qin Heng, trying to protect him.

In Xia Shuang's eyes, Qin Heng wasn't just her lifesaver; he was the hope against this evil force. Now that he had lost his strength, he was at his most vulnerable, and she had to guard him at all costs!

"It's okay, I'm fine." Qin Heng suddenly smiled, gently stroked Xia Shuang's hair, then in a flash, appeared before her.

With that, he flicked his finger!

ZING!

Like an unparalleled divine sword unsheathing, a dazzling golden light burst forth from his fingertip, an seemingly indestructible beam of sword light.

Instantly, it pierced through the forehead of the Indonesian monkey leading the way, leaving a round hole in the center of his brow. The man kept walking forward even as his head was penetrated.

This Indonesian monkey, his head pierced through, still maintained his momentum, even taking four or five more steps before collapsing with a thud, dead.

Blood ceaselessly oozed from the round hole, filling the air with a pungent smell.

Thick sprays of blood, carried by the golden light that had penetrated his head, scattered in the air and onto the other two following behind. The acrid smell of blood instantly filled their senses.

"AAAHHH!!"

"AAAH! My God!!"

The two men screamed in utter terror. Without a second thought, they turned and fled frantically, even seeking refuge behind Hong Zhenhai.

They looked at Qin Heng with boundless fear, trembling all over as if they had seen a ghostly apparition.

Hong Zhenhai was stunned, completely stunned.

He looked at Qin Heng in disbelief.

He stretched out his finger and pointed at Qin Heng, his whole body trembling, his voice trembling along with it. "You, you! How is it possible! How can you still have True Qi in your body? That's an unparalleled, deadly poison! Even the top Innate Grandmasters can't escape it! How could you—"

Hong Zhenhai's words were cut off abruptly.

Qin Heng grasped his neck with one hand, hoisted him up, and looked at him calmly, saying, "Who told you I was an Innate Grandmaster?"

Although a peak Innate Grandmaster is equivalent to the peak of Qi Refinement in terms of realm, there's actually a world of difference between the two. The power of Innate True Qi is essentially incomparable to the Mana of a Cultivator! Even the most ordinary Cultivator, at the same realm, has Mana that is at least ten times as potent as Innate True Qi; the gap between them is immense. Only a Martial Artist who cultivates a Divine Skill from ancient times could possibly possess Innate True Qi that rivals Mana, or even exceeds the Mana possessed by ordinary Cultivators!

However, Qin Heng is not an ordinary Cultivator. He's an Immortal Emperor of the Eternal Realm, cultivating anew after tribulation. The Mana he cultivates is more powerful than that produced by even the strongest and most mysterious Cultivation Techniques in the Immortal Cultivation World! A single measure of Qin Heng's Mana is at least equivalent to a thousand measures of an ordinary Cultivator's Mana!

The poison Hong Zhenhai used could indeed easily affect an ordinary Innate Grandmaster, but the fundamental difference in essence between ordinary Innate True Qi and the Mana Qin Heng possessed was too vast! It was a difference of tens of thousands of times! Therefore, what was a deadly poison to an ordinary Innate Grandmaster was, to Qin Heng, about as significant as the slight cooling sensation from a couple of drops of medicated oil—not only harmless but actually quite refreshing and comfortable.

"You! You!!" Hong Zhenhai looked at Qin Heng in disbelief, completely speechless. His eyes filled with fear; he was terrified—terrified of death!!

What he thought was his trump card, an ancient deadly poison that he believed could easily kill Qin Heng, had turned out to be utterly useless!!

"Qin Xuantian! You can't kill me!!" Hong Zhenhai roared with all his might. "Before coming to China, I used the military base under my control to hire five S-grade powerhouses from the Devil Organization Danbrus! If I die in China, they will immediately come here to kill you. Five S-grade powerhouses are equivalent to five Innate Grandmasters! And they each have unique abilities, making them impossible to guard against! Qin Xuantian! You should know, the only reason I haven't been able to deal with you is that powerful military weapons can't be brought into China. But those five S-grade powerhouses are the most terrifying weapons themselves! You won't be able to hide!! Let me go! I can assure you, as long as you let me go, I will never come after you again. I'll stay in Nanyang for the rest of my life, I absolutely will not..."

CRACK!

The sound of bones shattering rang out as Qin Heng directly crushed Hong Zhenhai's neck, ending his life.

"Five S-grades? Merely ants." Qin Heng snorted coldly and then threw Hong Zhenhai's body, casually killing Hong Zhenhai's remaining two subordinates with the impact.

SNAP!

Lastly, Qin Heng snapped his fingers, and a spark blossomed from his fingertips.

Simultaneously, the shattered Range Rover pieces, along with the bodies of Hong Zhenhai and his three subordinates, all ignited with intense flames, the scorching heat nearly twisting the air.

"Let's go!" Qin Heng gently stroked Xia Shuang's hair, wrapped an arm around her slender waist, and then, with her looking completely bewildered, he leaped into the air, heading towards Dongpu's city center.

Behind him, flames blazed fiercely, their light soaring into the sky, searing in all directions, followed by a series of thunderous roars that shook heaven and earth!

A real man never looks back at explosions!
