"Qin Yi, whether you kneel or not is no longer up to you," Su Zhantian laughed maniacally as he spoke.

Sweat the size of beans dripped from Qin Yi's forehead, his legs crushed into the ground.

The pressure grew heavier, as if the weight of the world was pressed solely upon him.

"Hahaha..."

Half of Qin Yi's body was already driven into the ground, yet he burst into laughter.

"I, Qin Yi, can bear the burden of all living beings. Can I not withstand a monster from the Su family?"

With a roar, purple light surged around Qin Yi, the two Golden Cores within him circulated wildly, radiating brilliant rays as his bones, meridians, even his blood shimmered golden and began boiling.

"Ancestor, this person refuses to repent. He must be forced to kneel," shouted Su Zhantian.

"Hiss!"

Qin Yi was like a javelin driven into the ground, reaching his chest.

"Ah..."

Qin Yi roared, his entire skin turned into a purple-golden hue, his insides a sight of dazzling gold, his blood, boiling, seeped out from his pores.

"Qin Yi, continue your arrogance? Continue your madness," laughed Su Tianzhan crazily.

Qin Yi felt his blood boiling unnaturally, almost molten lava-like, threatening to ignite his whole being.

The blood seeping from his pores coursed along his skin, eventually converging on his arm, pouring forth from his palm.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar reverberated.

In an instant, the whole void twisted, the terrible pressure detonated with the roar.

The oppressive force upon Qin Yi disappeared suddenly, the oscillation causing blood to spill from the corners of his mouth.

He looked up, dumbfounded.

The blood from his palm had transformed into a ferocious beast no bigger than a palm.

This is... Qin Yi stared blankly.

This is a Qilin, a small Fire Qilin, formed of blood, its entire body bathed in dreadful red flames that ignited the very air, crackling with explosive sounds.

The previous roar had come from this little Qilin.

"Roar!"

The Fire Qilin roared again, shaking heaven and earth.

"Boom!"

The figure in the sky burst into a mist of blood under the diminutive Fire Qilin's one roar.

The tiny Fire Qilin opened its mouth and sucked in the blood mist, then turned and charged at Qin Yi, directly burrowing into his chest.

Instinctively, Qin Yi pressed against his chest, pulled open his robe, and found nothing there.

But before he could process it, his face suddenly changed, feeling an overwhelming power exploding within, nourishing his bones, and meridians, even his two Golden Cores absorbed this power frantically, becoming ever more radiant.

Qin Yi was completely bewildered, What's happening?

He felt his cultivation had grown significantly.

Could it be because he was bathed in the essence blood of the Fire Qilin, stained by its aura? The Fire Qilin is a Divine Beast, and the filthy remnant blood of the Su family's ancestor enraged the Divine Blood of the Fire Qilin, which thus devoured it.

Now, that's the only explanation.

No matter what, he's safe now.

Su Zhantian's eyes were dazed, full of disbelief, unable to accept this fact.

"Boom!"

The ground exploded, earth and dirt flew as Qin Yi rushed out.

"Su Zhantian, do you have any cards left to play? If not, I'll send you to hell. On the road to the netherworld, you might catch up with these people for company, so it won't be too lonely."

As he finished, Qin Yi's imposing aura surged, aggressively charged towards Su Zhantian.

With a punch, the surrounding area twisted, the terrifying Fist Light spread out.

Regardless of whether Su Zhantian had any more tricks, Qin Yi wouldn't let him display them.

Before, he was lucky, saved by a trace of the Fire Qilin's aura. Next time, he might not have such a chance.

He does not wish to be forced to use the Eye of Righteous and Evil and go blind again.

If he goes blind, how will he see those two adorable children?

Su Zhantian screamed in horror, the terrifying might within the Fist Light froze his blood, madly channeling his energy to defend.

"Boom!"

The force Su Zhantian just gathered was shredded by the Fist Light, his whole person blasted away as if shot out like a cannonball, crashing into the mountain wall, embedding himself there.

Qin Yi raised his hand, palm emitting a suction force.

"Boom!"

Earthquake exploded, rocks flew, and Su Zhantian was pulled from the mountain wall by the suction.

"Slap!"

An air strike slap sent him flying, his mouth skewed, jaw dislocated.

"Slap!"

Another air slap tore open his face.

Qin Yi's hand lifted in a grip, clutching his neck.

Su Zhantian dangled like a ragdoll in Qin Yi's hand, eyes in terror, like mourning over a lost loved one.

Only now did he understand how vast the gap was in their cultivation.

Qin Yi's fingers tightened, neckbones cracking.

"Hidden family, Su Zhantian?" Qin Yi sneered with disdain, "With you trying to battle against heaven? Even if you dig up your ancestors' graves, they couldn't save you."

Su Zhantian trembled uncontrollably, he was scared, regretting deeply.

"Damn it..."

Qin Yi suddenly dropped Su Zhantian to the ground in disgust, stepping back two paces, pinching his nose, disgusted that the man actually pissed himself.

"Su Zhantian, you shouldn't have provoked me. Your foolishness has not only brought death upon yourself but also disaster upon your family."

Qin Yi's eyes were cold as he slowly lifted his hand, preparing to end this idiot.

"Spare me... spare me... please spare me..."

"If you knew this, what was the point of it all?" Qin Yi said without a trace of emotion.

"If you spare me, I will give you anything you want, please... spare my life, I was wrong..."

Su Zhantian knelt on the ground, shaking like a sieve, continuously kowtowing for mercy.

Such an idiot spoiled by the family, believed himself invincible. But when faced with danger, he was spineless, without temperament, a complete waste.

However, Qin Yi's descending hand suddenly halted.

The hidden family, having decided to deal with them, was not afraid to tear the façade. Letting Su Zhantian have a little use wasn't bad.

"Qin Yi, Qin Yi..."

Hearing the shouts, Qin Yi turned to see Duan Xinyuan and his son approaching.

When the two got closer, Qin Yi frowned, "Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to leave?"

"We worried you were in danger, so we came back."

Qin Yi: "..."

"Thank you! But tell me, if even I encounter danger, what can you two do besides increase casualties? Slow me down? Intent on my faster demise?

Next time, when I tell you to leave, don't think twice, run as fast as you can, as far as you can."

Duan Xinyuan, embarrassed, "We couldn't just abandon you. If you truly faced danger, we could help by retrieving your body."

Qin Yi: "..."

"I thank your eighteenth ancestor. I'm already regretting saving you two."
