"You-who are you?!"
Looking at the several unfamiliar men and women in front of him, Liu Junxing forced himself to keep a straight face, not letting any fear show.
"Do you know who I am? If you dare harm me, our Liu Family won't let you off!"
At this point, Liu Junxing's emotions calmed slightly, and his tone also softened a bit.
"Everyone, we have no grudges between us. If you need any help, just say it! Our Liu Family is somewhat reputable here, everyone will give us some face."
He forced out a smile, his words carrying a hidden threat.
Just now, one of them had lured him to a remote place, and then a black giant bird descended from the sky and grabbed him into the air.
He had been terrified at the moment. If it had let go, he would've either been dead or seriously injured!
He couldn't understand where this fourth-rank spirit beast had come from.
He hadn't offended any spirit beasts!
Now, looking at these unfamiliar men and women before him, he felt even more uneasy and could only cover his nervousness by talking incessantly.
"You're from the Liu Family, right?"
One of the men finally spoke.
Liu Junxing's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded, "Yes, I am."
"You know Liu Junming, right?"
"You're his friends?!" Liu Junxing's eyes widened instantly, his heart pounding wildly.
Could it be that Liu Junming's friends had come to seek revenge on him?!
"Who said we're his friends?" the man in black sneered. "We're his enemies!"
"Enemies?" Liu Junxing sucked in a breath, then felt a surge of joy inside.
Just as he thought, someone like Liu Junming must have enemies everywhere!
Sure enough, they had come knocking.
Liu Junxing immediately smiled, "Then this is a misunderstanding between our own people, we're on the same side! I'm also his enemy!"
He didn't notice that after he said this, the expressions of the man and woman behind them turned cold.
"Oh? Aren't you his brother?"
"I'm not!" Liu Junxing shook his head immediately. "I don't have such a brother!"
"What cultivation level are you?" the man in black suddenly asked.
Liu Junxing froze for a moment, not understanding why the topic had shifted, but still answered obediently, "Peak Golden Core Stage."
"How old are you?"
"Fi-fifty-two."
"Fifty-two, and still only Golden Core Stage peak?" The man sneered, his plain face full of mockery. "What useless trash, no wonder you're enemies with Liu Junming."
Liu Junxing's pupils shrank, and he nearly exploded.
If not for the fourth-rank Black Abyss Falcon glaring at him, he might've already rushed forward to attack.
He was only fifty-two, how was that not young?!
How could he possibly be called trash?!
Liu Junxing had always been confident in himself.
Although he wasn't a peerless genius, his talent wasn't bad.
Since childhood, he had only heard praise and had never had anyone call him a "trash".
Hearing it for the first time now, he nearly died of anger!
"How am I trash?!" he shouted furiously.
"Still not trash?" The woman in black beside him sneered. "If it was Liu Junming, he'd already be in Nascent Soul Stage by now."
Liu Junxing: "..."
His face turned red, then green, then purple, his features twisting grotesquely.
Yes, if Liu Junming was still alive, he would already be in Nascent Soul Stage.
But Liu Junming's dead!
He's already dead!
Liu Junxing's expression was extremely ugly, "Aren't you his enemies?"
"We are." The woman in black nodded. "But being enemies doesn't mean we're blind. Liu Junming had talent and we acknowledge that."
Liu Junxing's expression twisted even more.
Being acknowledged by enemies was harder than being acknowledged by friends.
If even enemies recognized his talent, how high must that talent be?
"So don't try to force a relationship with us." The man in black sneered, patting his face with obvious humiliation. "Not just anyone can be compared to us."
Liu Junxing felt deeply humiliated!
He had never been insulted like this!
But when he met the emotionless, ferocious eyes of the Black Abyss Falcon, he fell silent.
This was a fourth-rank spirit bird!
He didn't know their age or strength.
They looked plain and ordinary, they even appeared to be quite young, but in the world of cultivation, judging strength by appearance was the easiest way to make mistakes.
Unless one used a treasure to test their bone age.
But Liu Junxing couldn't do that.
No matter what their strength was, with that Black Abyss Falcon present, he didn't dare make a move.
Thinking this, Liu Junxing lowered his head in humiliation, grinding his teeth.
He swore in his heart that once he got out of here safely, he would tear these people to pieces to vent his hatred!
But just as he lowered his head, his hair was grabbed and yanked back.
"Ah!" he cried out involuntarily.
"I have a question for you." The man in black raised an eyebrow.
"What?" Liu Junxing frowned, shrinking his neck, enduring the pain and humiliation.
"I heard Liu Junming had a pair of twins, right?"
"Y-yes."
"So where are these twins?"
Liu Junxing was surprised, "Why are you looking for them?"
"Of course to take revenge." The man said casually.
"Revenge?" Liu Junxing's eyes widened, thinking he'd heard wrong.
"Yes." The man nodded. "I couldn't beat Liu Junming back then, so I'll go torment his children."
Liu Junxing was stunned by such a statement, "You want to torment his children?!"
"Yes. Is that not allowed?"
Liu Junxing opened his mouth, then hesitated.
Just now, the man'd seemed so arrogant that he thought he was upright and honorable.
Who knew he would seek revenge on children!
Wasn't that too ridiculous?
"Speak. Where are they?" The man tugged his hair again.
Liu Junxing's scalp hurt, and he snapped back to reality, quickly saying, "They died at birth!"
"Died?" The woman sneered. "Do you take us for fools? Liu Junming knew we would come for revenge sooner or later so he must've hidden his children early on. We've already found the location of his son. Now we just need to know where his daughter is."
Liu Junxing's pupils shrank. He hadn't expected them to have actually investigated this much!
Still, he hesitated, "I really don't kn—ah!"
Before he could finish, another man in gray kicked his knee hard.
He cried out in pain and dropped to his knees.
"Speak! Where is his daughter? Where did you send her?!"
The gray-clothed man's gaze was fiercer, his voice rough.
Liu Junxing cursed inwardly.
These were Liu Junming's enemies, why was he the one suffering?!
But faced with their brutality, he couldn't endure anymore, "I'll talk, I'll talk!"
"Hurry up!"
Liu Junxing gritted his teeth, "His daughter really is dead—ah!"
Before he could finish, he received a punch.
He instinctively tried to fight back, but the Black Abyss Falcon perched above flapped its wings and sent him flying.
"Ah—"
