Bai Zihan leads a specialized team to rescue Bai Xueqing, while Bai Tianheng creates a diversion at the Shen Clan headquarters. Meanwhile, Bai Xueqing awakens to find herself captive alongside Qinglan, realizing Shen Liang used a powerful artifact to summon reinforcements before her defeat. Shen Liang taunts Bai Xueqing, boasting about the Shen Clan's backing and her clan's imminent doom, before attempting to force himself on her. Their confrontation is interrupted by a mysterious, powerful figure who chastises Shen Liang.

The man stared at Shen Liang with undisguised disgust.

He had already reached this stage, yet Shen Liang still didn't understand anything.

The man slowly took out a handkerchief.

He wiped his palm carefully, as though touching Shen Liang had made his hand dirty.

Then he turned his attention toward Bai Xueqing.

Shen Liang's expression twisted with rage.

The fear he had shown moments ago seemed to vanish completely.

"What do you mean by that?!"

He roared.

The man glanced at him indifferently.

"She is someone who will become the Lord's woman."

The moment those words fell, Shen Liang froze.

His eyes widened.

For several seconds, he couldn't believe what he had just heard.

Then—

"You're saying..."

"Yes! So know your place."

Shen Liang's expression gradually twisted with fury.

His fists clenched tightly.

He had done all of this for Bai Xueqing.

He had risked everything.

He had kidnapped her.

He had brought her here.

He had even offended the Bai Clan and now someone was telling him to simply step aside?

How could he accept that?

"I will kill you!"

Boom!

Shen Liang's aura erupted violently.

Peak Void Refinement Realm!

His figure shot forward like a cannonball, charging directly toward the man.

"Idiot!"

The man didn't even bother to move his feet.

He simply raised his hand.

Slap!

A terrifying force struck Shen Liang across the face.

His entire body was sent flying.

Bang!

He crashed heavily into the wall, causing the entire chamber to tremble.

Bai Xueqing's eyes narrowed slightly.

However, Shen Liang wasn't finished.

He slowly climbed out of the rubble. His eyes were bloodshot.

His expression was completely distorted.

"AHHHHH!"

He roared.

The aura around his body suddenly surged again.

Crack! Crack!

Strange sounds came from within his body.

His muscles twisted.

His bones began to change.

His skin became increasingly distorted.

The aura surrounding him grew stronger and stronger.

Great Ascension Realm!

Bai Xueqing's expression changed slightly.

This was no longer a normal breakthrough.

Something was happening to Shen Liang's body.

His appearance rapidly became more grotesque.

His skin darkened.

Veins bulged across his body.

His face twisted into something barely resembling a human.

His fingers lengthened into sharp claws.

A disgusting aura spread throughout the chamber.

Bai Xueqing stared at the transformation in silence.

(What exactly had happened to Shen Liang?)

The man merely watched with indifference.

Shen Liang's sanity seemed to have almost completely disappeared.

"Die!"

With a roar, he charged forward again.

This time, the man finally moved.

His figure flashed.

Before Shen Liang could even react—

Boom!

A terrifying force pierced directly through his body.

Shen Liang's eyes widened.

His monstrous body suddenly froze.

Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

The man withdrew his hand.

Thud!

Shen Liang's body collapsed heavily onto the ground.

He was dead!

The man looked down at Shen Liang's corpse.

He slowly shook his head.

"A failed experiment."

His eyes narrowed slightly.

"Not completely though."

A faint trace of interest appeared in his eyes.

"He did produce some very interesting results."

Bai Xueqing had watched everything unfold in complete silence.

Shock filled her eyes.

There were two things that left her deeply unsettled.

The first was Shen Liang's transformation.

That disgusting appearance had been completely beyond her expectations.

The second was the strength displayed by the man standing before her.

It was terrifying.

Bai Xueqing was certain that he was not merely at the Immortal Ascension Realm.

In fact, he might not be an Earth Immortal.

His strength was clearly beyond anything she had encountered before.

Yet strangely, that wasn't what concerned her the most.

What Bai Xueqing found even more curious was what the man had said before.

A failed experiment.

What exactly had he done to Shen Liang?

Bai Xueqing looked at him.

"What did you do to him?"

The man glanced at Shen Liang's corpse before turning back toward her.

His attitude remained polite.

"That is something Miss doesn't need to worry about."

Bai Xueqing narrowed her eyes.

She carefully studied his expression.

There was no intention of explaining.

No matter how she questioned him, he clearly wouldn't answer.

And she had to remember her current situation.

She was merely a prisoner.

There was no reason for him to tell her anything.

Bai Xueqing didn't continue pressing the matter.

Instead, she asked another question.

"Who is this Lord? What does he want from me?"

The man's expression became slightly more respectful.

Even his tone carried a trace of reverence.

"The Lord is the most respected and talented man in this world. His existence stands above countless others."

"He possesses unparalleled talent and strength."

The man's eyes revealed genuine admiration.

"Miss should consider yourself fortunate to be able to become the Lord's woman. Once you meet him, you will understand what kind of fortune has fallen upon you."

"He is the best man in the world! A god among men!"

Bai Xueqing listened quietly.

The more she heard, the more disgusted she became.

Bai Xueqing slowly looked around the chamber.

Her eyes swept across every corner.

Unfortunately, she couldn't find any obvious way to escape.

Her cultivation had been sealed, and even if she somehow managed to break free from her restraints, she had no idea how many enemies were waiting outside.

Under the current circumstances, escaping would be extremely difficult.

She sighed inwardly.

Then, as if she had suddenly thought of something, a faint smile appeared on her face.

"Oh? Does a man more brilliant than me exist? "Mind telling me more about this 'Lord'?"

The man's expression changed slightly.

"Who?"

He abruptly turned around.

A figure was standing behind him.

Bai Zihan!

Bai Zihan's expression was calm as he looked directly at the man.

Then his gaze shifted toward the corpse lying on the ground.

Although Shen Liang's appearance had become almost unrecognizable, Bai Zihan still recognized him.

"He is already dead?"

A trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes.

"Pity!"

He had originally been looking forward to personally torturing Shen Liang.

Now, that opportunity was gone.

The man's expression became solemn.

He stared at Bai Zihan for several moments before finally speaking.

"How did you find this place?"

For the first time since his appearance, genuine surprise could be heard in his voice.

The arrogance and indifference he had displayed earlier had disappeared.

Bai Zihan didn't answer. Instead, he looked at him calmly.

"Answer me! That way you can make things easier for yourself..."

The man's expression froze. Then—

"Hahaha!"

He suddenly burst into laughter.

His previous surprise quickly disappeared.

"So what if you found this place?"

He looked at Bai Zihan with a hint of ridicule. His aura slowly began to rise.

"You are already dead!"

"Do you think this old man is dead?"

Bai Ren also showed himself. His gaze was cold as he looked at the man.

He cracked his knuckles.

"Why don't you defeat me first?"

The moment his voice fell, three more figures appeared beside Bai Zihan.

Three Earth Immortals!

All four of them released powerful auras.

Bai Xueqing's eyes widened.

The moment she saw Bai Zihan and the others, the heavy feeling in her heart finally eased.

Bai Zihan had come. And with him were Bai Ren and three Earth Immortals.

The man's expression darkened.

"More intruders?"

He frowned.

Looking at the situation before him, it was obvious that Bai Zihan hadn't simply stumbled upon this place by chance.

Furthermore, the four experts who had appeared behind him were clearly powerful.

The man carefully examined them.

"Who are you? And why are you interfering?"

Bai Zihan glanced at him.

"This idiot. You kidnapped my sister and don't even know who I am?"

He shook his head.

"Looks like your arrogance is even greater than mine."

The man's pupils suddenly contracted.

A moment later, realization finally dawned upon him.

"You… Bai Zihan?"

His expression changed.

"Weren't you supposed to be at the Shen Clan?"

Bai Zihan raised an eyebrow.

"Why should we go there?"

His gaze shifted toward Bai Xueqing.

"Isn't my dear sister here? You thought you could deceive us with your little trick?"

"YOU..."

The man's expression became furious.

For a moment, killing intent surged from his body.

However, he quickly suppressed it.

A smile gradually returned to his face.

"Hahaha! I see."

He looked at Bai Zihan with a completely different expression.

"I underestimated you. You aren't as foolish as you seemed."

Bai Zihan smiled faintly.

"And you are just as foolish as you look."

His gaze became slightly colder.

"Perhaps your so-called Lord is even more foolish."

The moment those words fell, the man's expression completely changed.

His previous calmness vanished.

"Shut up!"

A terrifying fury erupted from his eyes.

"You dare insult the Lord?"

His voice shook the entire chamber.

"Who do you think you are? An ant like you has no right to speak about the Lord!"

Boom!

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body.

Golden Immortal!

The pressure swept through the entire chamber like a storm.

However, Bai Zihan and the others didn't panic.

Not even the slightest trace of surprise appeared on their faces.

Instead, Bai Ren merely narrowed his eyes.

"So that's it."

Bai Zihan's expression remained calm.

He had already expected this.

If the Shen Clan didn't possess the backing of at least a Golden Immortal, how could they have the courage to provoke the Bai Clan?

The man looked at their calm expressions and frowned.

He had expected fear, shock and perhaps even desperation.

Yet none of those emotions appeared.

Bai Zihan simply stood there, looking at him as though his Golden Immortal cultivation wasn't particularly impressive.

A faint smile appeared on Bai Zihan's face.

"So you're only a Golden Immortal? How dare you be more arrogant than this young master!"
