Wu Tian strode forward. He had made a name for himself in the Underground World after annihilating the Righteous Alliance.
Luo Qingshan and his Immortal Seekers all recognized him, and their expressions changed at once.
Wu Tian walked right up to Luo Qingshan.
Luo Qingshan gritted his teeth and said, "If you must kill someone, kill me. Just don’t harm them."
Hearing this, the Immortal Seekers were suddenly filled with courage. They approached Wu Tian and knelt once more. "Mr. Wu Tian, please don’t harm him!"
"If you’re going to kill him, kill me first."
They pleaded with Wu Tian one by one, some with tears streaming down their faces, which momentarily moved him.
"Don’t worry. I will let him live." Wu Tian had just read Luo Qingshan’s physiognomy and realized he could not die yet. First, he would indirectly be of help. Second, he would provide a good show to watch.
Wu Tian then turned to the Immortal Seekers kneeling for Luo Qingshan’s sake. "But as for you," he said, "you must die."
They nodded. As long as Luo Qingshan was spared, they were relieved.
Who would have thought Luo Qingshan could win people’s hearts to such an extent?
Liu Tianji and the others stepped forward, and everyone except for Luo Qingshan was slain.
"Get out of here," Wu Tian said.
Luo Qingshan departed in tears.
The little one in Qin Yuhan’s arms exclaimed, "He’s a grown man, yet he’s crying like that... Sigh!"
Wu Tian, however, looked solemnly at the little one and said, "Girl, you must be wary of people like him. They are the most dangerous kind."
Liu Tianji and the others nodded in agreement. People who look fierce on the outside aren’t always the most terrifying. But when people like Luo Qingshan—who appear kind, weak, and blood-shy—turn sinister, they are the ones who are truly dark.
Qin Yuhan asked, "Then why did you let him go?"
Wu Tian smiled. "I want to watch a good show and see if this ’son’ can truly be ruthless enough to kill his own master!"
Hearing this, everyone was startled.
Luo Qingshan could kill the Honorable Master? That seems impossible.
Wu Tian simply smiled, offering no explanation. Instead, he commanded, "Clean up the bodies."
"Yes," Liu Tianji and the others replied with a nod. With so many corpses underground, an epidemic could easily break out. If it were to accidentally spread to the Surface World, it would spell disaster for the people above.
Some of the most notorious plagues in the history of the Surface World were linked to the Underground World. Major earthquakes, too, were often related to large-scale battles between the Immortal Seekers below.
「Meanwhile...」
Luo Qingshan fled the area in a hurry, only to encounter another group from the Great Sect. The members of the Great Sect were divided into Bronze, Silver, and Gold tiers. The ones Wu Tian and his group had just effortlessly killed were Bronze. Now, Luo Qingshan had run into Silver-tier Immortal Seekers.
Within the Great Sect, there were 10,000 Bronze Immortal Seekers, 1,000 Silver, and only 12 Gold.
Before Luo Qingshan stood over a hundred of the Great Sect’s Silver Immortal Seekers.
"Young Master Luo, what happened to you? Why do you look so pale?"
Luo Qingshan had good connections within the sect. As an illegitimate child, he had learned to endure hardships. He had worked as a servant for a long time, but he gritted his teeth and climbed step by step to become one of the Silver Immortal Seekers.
"I was leading over two hundred Bronze Immortal Seekers, having discovered how to open the Barrier, but we were ambushed," Luo Qingshan said. His eyes darted around as he suddenly gritted his teeth and added, "Both sides suffered casualties. In the end, the enemy achieved a Pyrrhic victory, and I was the only one left. I had no choice but to escape. I have failed them."
Upon hearing this, the hundred-plus Silver Immortal Seekers were furious, but they also gleaned some information from Luo Qingshan’s words.
The enemy isn’t that strong? They only managed a Pyrrhic victory against more than two hundred Bronze Immortal Seekers? If we Silver Immortal Seekers go, wouldn’t it be child’s play to take them down?

But they never stopped to consider what would happen if Luo Qingshan was deceiving them.
