Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 684: You are Qin Xuantian!???

Palm Suppression!

What is Palm Suppression?

This is Palm Suppression!

With a backhanded move, he pulled the Semi-Saint of the Encompass Starry Pavilion and Master of the North Star Palace straight down from the sky. The latter had no power to resist, not even the strength to struggle. Then, with a flip of his palm, it astonishingly transformed into the Mount of Five Fingers, pinning the Semi-Saint underneath and immobilizing him.

Terrifying! It was indeed extremely terrifying! Such strength had already far surpassed the limits understood by the many Transcendents present. It was so powerful it defied all reason, simply illogical, terrifyingly so!

"Damn it! Damn it!" Song Yuanke, pressed beneath the Mount of Five Fingers, bellowed in rage as he stared at Qin Heng. "Who are you? Who exactly are you?!"

He refused to believe that an unknown Innate at the pinnacle of power could defeat him so easily, especially in such a crushing manner. Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

"Ants don't have the right to ask questions," Qin Heng spoke indifferently. He gave Song Yuanke a glance before disregarding him, then said to the somewhat dazed Lu Ziyi, "Let's go to the hotel together."

"Ah? Okay, sure." Lu Ziyi was momentarily startled and then subconsciously nodded, following behind Qin Heng.

Those who had come to watch the battle now noticed Lu Ziyi. They were immediately dazzled by her stunning beauty and cold temperament, all of them staring at her in stupefied awe. Among these people were heirs of Ancient Divine Sects who had seen Lu Ziyi before and recognized her.

"The Saintess of Jade Pool! That's the Saintess of Jade Pool!"

"What? The Saintess Lu Ziyi of the Jade Pool Divine Sect? No way! What is she doing with that young man?"

They just said they're going to the hotel, it couldn't be...

No! I can't believe it!

Damn! I've only just laid eyes on the Goddess for the first time, and she's already been charmed away?!

Many were beating their chests and stomping their feet in frustration. The Saintess Lu Ziyi's reputation in the Martial Dao world was no small matter. Some enthusiasts had even ranked the top ten most beautiful women, placing her firmly at the top—supremely graceful and untainted by the mortal world. Many male Martial Artists regarded Lu Ziyi as the immaculate Goddess in their hearts, including even some successors of Ancient Divine Sects.

But now! The Goddess in their hearts was actually obediently following a man! And it seemed they were even going to the hotel together!

Damn it! This is unacceptable, truly unacceptable!

But there was nothing to be done. The strength Qin Heng had displayed just then was too strong, too terrifying! Even if they felt resentful, none of those present dared to step forward. The difference in strength was too great; the precedent set by Song Yuanke was right before their eyes. No one had the courage.

"Stop!"

Song Yuanke spoke again, his eyes fixed on Qin Heng as if to brand his image upon his soul. He said through gritted teeth, filled with hatred, "Tell me, who are you!"

Yet Qin Heng did not even bother to respond, completely ignoring him as though he hadn't heard a word. He continued walking with Lu Ziyi towards the hotel not far ahead. There were still more than three days until the opening of the Changping Battlefield ruins; they needed to find a place to stay.

"Stop! You're not allowed to leave!"

Song Yuanke seemed completely unafraid of Qin Heng killing him. He shouted forcefully, "Release me! Or you'll bear consequences you cannot afford! Lu Ziyi, if you don't want this guy by your side to die, then make him release me!"

If Qin Heng just walks away like that, I'll be suppressed here by the Mount of Five Fingers forever, witnessed by passersby, and even by many in the Martial Dao world, including Transcendents from other countries! The dignified Master of the Encompass Starry Pavilion's North Star Palace, a Semi-Saint, a direct disciple of a Saint, actually suppressed here, unable to move, for all the passersby to see—how can this be allowed! Absolutely not! No matter what, I have to escape this trap; I have to make this detestable youngster release me! That was what Song Yuanke was thinking.

Qin Heng stopped in his tracks. He turned to look at Song Yuanke, his gaze somewhat surprised, and chuckled lightly. "You actually dare to speak to me like this? Do you really not fear I'll kill you?"

"Kill me? HAHAHAHA!" Song Yuanke burst into laughter, laughing so joyously that if he weren't suppressed under the Mount of Five Fingers, he might have shaken with it. "You dare to kill me? Do you? HAHAHAHA!"

The crowd then realized why Song Yuanke was so fearless.

That's right! He might have been easily defeated in strength, even suppressed by a single palm, but he wasn't just Song Yuanke. He was also the Master of the North Star Palace of the Encompass Starry Pavilion! If he were killed, it would mean offending the Encompass Starry Pavilion—an Ancient Divine Sect with an untold number of years of heritage, housing countless Saints and even Great Saints in slumber.

Who would dare? No one would dare. This young man most likely wouldn't dare either!

"Let Song Yuanke go. Where it's possible to forgive, one should forgive."

"Making an enemy out of the Encompass Starry Pavilion won't do you any good. Young man, know when to stop while you're ahead."

"Take a step back for a broader view. The situation is stronger than the individual. No matter how powerful you are, could you really contend with the Encompass Starry Pavilion? Young man, you must know when to advance or retreat and discern losses from gains."

Many people started persuading Qin Heng. In their view, no matter how powerful Qin Heng was, he couldn't be compared to the Encompass Starry Pavilion. One man? How could he compare to an Ancient Divine Sect with an untold number of years of heritage? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

"Did you hear that?" Song Yuanke's face regained a confident smile as he said, "Kid, if you release me now, I can overlook previous matters. Otherwise, you should be aware of the consequences when an Ancient Divine Sect is enraged! You cannot bear it!"

"It seems you truly don't believe that I will kill you." Qin Heng was somewhat amused. "You must really not know who I am. You're courting death quite effectively."

"Stop boasting! You simply don't dare kill me," Song Yuanke sneered. "Pride will get you nowhere. With just one word from me, you will become an enemy of the Encompass Starry Pavilion!"

"You've gone too far!" Lu Ziyi couldn't hold back any longer. She said to Song Yuanke, "Utterly unreasonable! It was clearly you who provoked the fight first. Being suppressed is what you deserved!"

"That's not correct." Song Yuanke shook his head and sneered, "I am a Semi-Saint from the Encompass Starry Pavilion. How can this youngster, who looks like a Loose Cultivator, compare to me?"

"Do you know Hong Guchen?" Qin Heng suddenly inquired.

"Hong Guchen?" Song Yuanke was startled and somewhat puzzled. "Are you referring to that genius from our pavilion's South Star Palace? A pity he died young. What about him?"

"I killed him," Qin Heng said, his tone calm, like still water.

"You?!" Song Yuanke felt a sense of foreboding, and the crowd erupted into an uproar.

"Do you know how the Master of the South Star Palace died?" Qin Heng's gaze turned frosty as he looked at Song Yuanke, as if looking at a dead man.

"You... you... you! Could it be you?!" Song Yuanke seemed to have realized something. His previously confident expression disappeared without a trace, his eyes filled with dread.

"I killed him!" Qin Heng scoffed. "Now, you, the Master of the North Star Palace, stand before me, so certain that I don't dare kill you? Who gave you such confidence?"

With that said, he flicked his finger. A golden sword light condensed. Instantly, the killing intent thickened, its energy reaching for the sky, and a murderous aura shrouded all directions.

"You're Qin Xuantian?!"

Song Yuanke screamed, looking at Qin Heng in disbelief, "No, no, no! Spare me! Spare me!"
