A Great Expert—one that, even within the Luo Clan, would be considered a high-level pillar figure. Raising such a person required immense resources and effort—yet he had died just like that!
Moreover, Luo Qingyu was still a very young Great Expert, not even two hundred years old. It was not impossible that he might one day break through to the Eighth Heaven.
Such a Great Expert with considerable potential had died so easily—his very true spirit completely erased.
And what made it even more intolerable was that he died within the Taihuang Holy Land, a place most members of the Luo Clan regarded as their own backyard. The one who struck him down was none other than Luo Huangjun—also a member of the Luo Clan herself!
How could he possibly endure this?
"My surname is none of your concern. If you value your life, then get lost immediately. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind testing just what kind of methods a clan elder truly has."
Luo Huangjun's expression remained unchanged, still as cold as ice.
"Good, good, good! Just like your father—so arrogant, so disrespectful of your elders!"
"When this old man stepped into the Eighth Heaven, you hadn't even been born yet! Come—let me see just what tricks the Taihuang Holy Lord possesses!"
Luo Tianhai was furious to the point of laughter. His robes billowed violently, his beard and hair whipping wildly in the air!
"You indeed need to seek my guidance," Luo Huangjun nodded solemnly, yet the words she spoke once again shattered Luo Tianhai's composure.
"The gap between you and me is simply too great. If I were at your age, you wouldn't even be qualified to stand in front of me."
This left even Chu Ge thoroughly enlightened by the exchange.
"Senior Sister… Master… has she always been like this?"
You're asking me? I don't know either!
Su Lingyuan silently complained in her heart. Her mood at this moment wasn't much different from Chu Ge's.
Although she had entered Luo Huangjun's tutelage when she was very young and became a true disciple, in all these years, she had never seen her master exchange blows with anyone.
The recent encounter with Dantai Jinglian did not count—they had merely been mutually verifying their cultivation.
Thus, this was the first time Su Lingyuan had ever seen Luo Huangjun in such a posture.
"I've never seen Master fight anyone before either," she replied to Chu Ge.
Above them, after Luo Tianhai lost his composure once more, he finally could no longer suppress the rage in his heart and decisively made his move.
His figure vanished from the spot in the blink of an eye, and Luo Huangjun likewise disappeared.
They had gone to higher ground.
Chu Ge withdrew his gaze and looked instead toward Luo Feipeng and the remaining lackeys who had followed him.
These men were already scared out of their wits, prostrating themselves on the ground, trembling uncontrollably. Luo Feipeng lay motionless on the ground.
The others hardly mattered—mere lackeys. Aside from shouting a few provocations at the beginning and indulging in some verbal bravado, they had no further presence at all.
But Chu Ge had not forgotten Luo Feipeng's earlier words—how he had relied on Luo Qingyu to try to humiliate him, even speak of crippling him.
Since a Great Expert of the Luo Clan was already dead, what harm would it do if another young clansman died as well?
Although Luo Qingyu had not died by his hand, Chu Ge was not naïve enough to believe that, should the Luo Clan seek vengeance, they would spare him.
Just as Chu Ge was about to finish off Luo Feipeng, he noticed something amiss.
After careful observation, he discovered that Luo Feipeng was already dead!
Aside from the missing ear, there were no other visible injuries on his body—but his soul had already been utterly annihilated!
As for the other trembling men, their cultivation had all been completely erased. Chu Ge clearly remembered that these people were originally at the Third Heaven—but now, every one of them had been reduced to useless cripples!
With a moment's thought, Chu Ge understood.
It seemed that Master had already arrived earlier, simply choosing not to reveal herself immediately.
Everything Luo Feipeng had said and done must have been heard clearly by Master—and so she had casually executed him on the spot!
Truly… what a good master!
Chu Ge thought so as a warm current surged through his heart.
They had only been together for a few days, yet Luo Huangjun had already done so much for his sake. This genuinely moved Chu Ge.
After all, who wouldn't love a cold, protective, and vengeful master?
As Chu Ge was thinking this, suddenly, a clear and piercing phoenix cry rang out from the heavens above.
Chu Ge was not unfamiliar with this sound—he had heard it that day when Dantai Jinglian fought against Luo Huangjun.
