"I have no intention of killing you."

Xiao Hanfeng smiled slightly and said, "It is Young Master Feng who wants to kill you."

Yang Qingshan looked at Gu Chenfeng in panic and pleaded, "Young Master Feng, please spare me. As long as you spare my life, I'll do anything you ask."

If his legs could move, Yang Qingshan would have knelt down and kowtowed by now.

"Oh? Anything?" Gu Chenfeng asked in surprise.

"Yes, yes!" Yang Qingshan nodded repeatedly, seemingly seeing a glimmer of hope.

Gu Chenfeng grinned and said, "I want you to die."

"What?" Yang Qingshan's old face changed drastically.

Seeing Yang Qingshan's expression, Gu Chenfeng grinned again and said, "What did you just say? What now? Are you going back on your word?"

"Young Master Feng, please don't joke with me," Yang Qingshan said in terror. "You want me to die, I... "

Such an unreasonable demand, Yang Qingshan encountered for the first time.

"I guessed you wouldn't agree," Gu Chenfeng said with a slight cold smile. "Old fool, wanting to kill me comes with a price, and that price is your life."

As he finished speaking, Gu Chenfeng casually conjured an Ice Sword.

"Whizz!"

With a flick of his hand, the Ice Sword transformed into a white lightning bolt, shooting out with a sharp, piercing sonic boom.

"No! Don't kill me! Young Master Feng, spare me!" Yang Qingshan cried out in utter despair, desperately trying to muster his spiritual power to resist the ice attribute.

Unfortunately, Yang Qingshan's injuries were severe, and even at the pinnacle of the late stage of Divinity Transformation, the power he could muster was nowhere near able to shake Gu Chenfeng's ice attribute.

"Swoosh!"

In an instant, the Ice Sword mercilessly pierced through Yang Qingshan's chest, with blood gushing out.

The overbearing Ice Sword destroyed Yang Qingshan's Primordial Spirit along with it.

"No!" Yang Qingshan screamed in horror and despair, "Young brat, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!"

"I've heard such ghost stories many times," Gu Chenfeng said with a cold laugh. "I've killed so many people, and I've never seen any return as a ghost for revenge."

"And besides, would a cultivator fear a ghost?"

"Poof!"

Yang Qingshan was so enraged that he spat out a mouthful of blood, dying on the spot.

"I didn't expect Young Master Feng to have broken through to the middle stage of Soul Emergence," Xiao Hanfeng said respectfully with a smile, showing no sadness or pity for Yang Qingshan's death.

"I must thank the old patriarch of the Nalan family," Gu Chenfeng said with a light smile. "He was corrupted by ice attribute years ago, and after I absorbed and refined the ice attribute in his body, I broke through."

"So that's how it is," Xiao Hanfeng nodded slightly.

Gu Chenfeng smiled gently, "Alright, the matter is settled, you can go back now."

Xiao Hanfeng respectfully said again, "Young Master Feng, the Artifact Refining Pavilion has collected many powerful artifact refining materials, including many for immortal artifacts. The materials exchanged from the Medicine God Hall have also been sent to the pavilion."

Gu Chenfeng chuckled softly, "Very good, I will find time to visit the Artifact Refining Pavilion and continue collecting materials for refining immortal artifacts."

"Yes, Young Master Feng," Xiao Hanfeng responded respectfully, then vanished from sight.

After Xiao Hanfeng left,

Gu Chenfeng flashed into the sky, looked at Nalan Tian, and smiled, "Senior Nalan, sorry to interrupt your killing, please continue."

"Young Master Feng jests, I should thank you for eliminating Yang Qingshan for me," Nalan Tian said with clasped fists, then continued his charge towards the Gao family's experts.

Nalan Ziye gratefully said, "Brother Feng... Young Master Feng, thank you for your assistance, I will never forget this kindness."

"It was just a small effort, no need to thank me," Gu Chenfeng said with a light smile. "Sister Nalan is much older than me, you should call me Brother Feng."

"Alright," Nalan Ziye nodded slightly.

The more she understood the terrifying background of Gu Chenfeng, the more cautious Nalan Ziye became in front of him.

"Whizz, whizz, whizz!"

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Nalan Tian attacked with ruthless aggression, his speed incredible, giving Gao Xin and others no chance to plead for mercy. The flashes of sword light mercilessly slashed down the Gao family's experts.

Even without full recovery, and without regaining his peak strength, Nalan Tian could easily slay the early stage Divinity Transformation experts.

Looking towards Nalan Xiao, Nalan Tian commanded, "Xiao'er, immediately take people to the Gao family, leave no one alive!"

"Leave no one? Even the children must die?" Nalan Ziye's delicate face changed drastically.

Nalan Ziye was about to speak, but Gu Chenfeng stopped her.

Gu Chenfeng said softly, "Sister Nalan, have you forgotten how the Gao family oppressed your Nalan family? Did you forget your father was almost killed?"

Nalan Ziye anxiously said, "But those children are innocent."

Gu Chenfeng continued, "You can't be merciful with enemies. They won't give you any chance, so you can't give them any."

"They are children now, but when they grow up, can you guarantee they won't seek revenge against the Nalan family? To deal with enemies, you must eradicate them completely, eliminating any future troubles."

Hearing this, Nalan Ziye fell silent.

Gu Chenfeng was right; you can't be soft-hearted when dealing with enemies. You must eradicate them completely.

"Yes!" Nalan Xiao responded respectfully, then ordered, "Nalan clan, listen up. All clan members at the Golden Core Stage or above, immediately follow me to destroy the Gao family!"

"Yes!" The Nalan clan roared in excitement, their momentum shaking the heavens.

At this moment,

Inside the Gao family in Sumeru City,

The members of the Gao family witnessed their family, elders, and other strong members being slaughtered by Nalan Tian, and they were already scared out of their wits.

Upon hearing Nalan Tian's order, the members of the Gao family were utterly hopeless.

"Run! Run!" The clan members screamed in terror, chaos ensuing.

It was too late to try escaping now.

In the face of the Nalan clan's Divinity Transformation experts, as well as numerous Integration Stage and Soul Emergence Stage experts, the Gao family members had no chance of escape.

The Gao family was destined to be annihilated today.

Nalan Tian retrieved the King's Sword, his sharp gaze then turned towards the distant head of the Han family.

Just a fleeting glance from Nalan Tian made the head of the Han family shiver, his old eyes filled with intense fear.

The elders and elite experts of the Han family also trembled in fright, fearing that Nalan Tian would come after their Han family as well.

Nalan Tian said coldly, "Head of the Han family, I originally thought your Han family would ally with the Gao family. It seems I was overthinking."

The head of the Han family quickly cupped his fists with a smile, "Senior Nalan, you jest. Although there are some minor conflicts between our families, it's not to the point of war. The Han family would never ally with the Gao family."

"That's best," Nalan Tian replied coldly.

The head and elders of the Han family breathed a sigh of relief, then hastily left, afraid of offending Nalan Tian.

Nalan Tian then looked at Gu Chenfeng and thanked him with clasped fists, "Thank you, Young Master Feng, for your righteous assistance. Without it, I couldn't have eliminated the cold poison, and the Nalan family might not have survived this crisis."

"Senior Nalan, you are too kind," Gu Chenfeng replied with a slight smile.

Nalan Tian smiled joyfully, "Young Master Feng, saving my Nalan family from peril makes you our lifesaving benefactor. Today, we must thank you properly!"

"Xiao Wu, prepare a feast immediately to welcome Young Master Feng!"
