Ershui City.

White House.

As night fell, flames lit up the magnificent mansion.

Shouts, pleas for mercy, sounds of fighting, screams, and other noises came from all directions within the courtyard.

"It's so lively!"

Wang Sheng stood on the roof of a side room of the Bai family's house, surveying the Bai family's current situation.

Several figures dressed in black were among those surrounding and killing the head of the Bai family.

"You've got that sticky needle-like strength, Zhao Jie!"

"Qingshan Jin, you are Cheng Yuan!"

"And you, the one with the sword, are you Shangguan Zu! Do you really intend to exterminate the Bai family without a shred of compassion?!"

The head of the Bai family roared repeatedly, pointing out the identities of several men in black.

But none of the men in black responded; they all focused their attention on their old friend.

There was nothing they could do; the Emperor's army had suddenly gained external support and become stronger.

The Bai family patriarch wanted to remain neutral and, having acquired a large amount of wealth and elixirs, had no intention of joining the Martial Alliance.

Zhao Jie and his group had no choice but to kill the Bai family patriarch, divide the Bai family property among themselves, and fill their own pockets.

Knowing that he was old and frail and unable to improve his cultivation, the head of the Bai family had not used the Ziyang Pill and the large amount of precious medicinal herbs stored in the house for many years.

Rather than besieged and killed by the imperial army that will eventually gain a foothold, it's better to benefit the people in our own city now.

This was Zhao Jie and the others' idea.

Wang Sheng watched the several Grandmasters of Transformation Realm fighting with great enthusiasm. His expression was calm, but there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

"Perhaps I'll be the next one to be surrounded and killed."

This isn't speculation; it's highly likely!

The reason for targeting the Bai family first was that the Bai family patriarch was old, and the Bai family's wealth was significantly greater than Wang Sheng's.

After the Bai family divided the property, each family was able to eat their fill.

As for Wang Sheng, he was merely a chicken rib—tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away.

However, if someone really has their eyes on Danyang Tower Master's Purple Sun Pills, they might actually make a move against Wang Sheng.

They sent congratulatory gifts before, and now they're going to launch a coordinated attack to kill us.

The changes were so rapid that the Emperor's Army was beyond Zhao Jie and his group's control. They lost their previous confidence in sitting on the sidelines and had no choice but to act decisively, dividing up several major powers that wanted to remain neutral, and quickly increasing their own strength.

If the Emperor's Army had been under their control before, and the Bai and Shangguan families had been linked by marriage, things would never have come to this.

Unfortunately,

Life is unpredictable, and changes can be unpredictable.

However, with the Bai family patriarch as an example, other declining Transformation Realm forces will have a choice tomorrow.

If I don't join the Martial Alliance, am I supposed to join the rebels?

No matter how strong the imperial army was, it was just a band of bandits and could never compare to the local forces that represented the court.

This is the inevitable trend: those who kill you will be forced to join in and suffer exploitation.

"We still need to improve our strength! Strength is fundamental!"

"Luckily, I just had a major power boost last night!"

Wang Sheng strolled deeper into the Bai family compound, thinking to himself.

His sticky needle technique crossed the threshold of the early stage of the Transformation Realm and broke through to the middle stage of the Transformation Realm.

For others, it might be a minor bottleneck. But for Wang Sheng, hard work pays off steadily; whether it's a bottleneck or not, progress is inevitable.

Therefore, the Bone-Melting Strength, Tortoise Shell Skill, and Black Water Purple Extreme Skill have all broken through to the Transformation Strength level.

This is also the source of his confidence to get involved in this mess.

"Ahhhh! No, no!"

"So young and beautiful, no wonder she's from a wealthy family!"

As Wang Sheng passed by a house, he heard a girl screaming in despair and a man laughing lewdly inside.

"I'm still too kind! I can't stand filth!"

Wang Sheng shook his head and waved his hand.

Countless sticky needles shot through the walls, the people inside stopped abruptly, and then the house collapsed.

"Who goes there? How dare you kill my brother! Attack!"

When the three masked martial arts masters heard that their brothers were no longer moving, they all ran out of the other houses. When they saw Wang Sheng next to the collapsed house, they were furious.

"Four-man swords?"

When Wang Sheng saw that the three men were all wielding curved swords, he recalled what his senior brother Luo had mentioned a few days ago about the four foreign experts who claimed to be able to defeat even those at the peak of the Dark Force realm when they joined forces, and were invincible below the Transformation Force realm.

"That's right, it's the four of us brothers."

Before one of the three could finish speaking, countless sticky needles pierced through all three of them.

The three people's bodies were instantly torn to pieces by the sticky needle force.

"All show and no substance. Senior Brother Luo overestimated you!"

Wang Sheng shook his head and walked directly into the depths of the Bai family compound.

Anyone who blocks the way will be instantly killed by the Sticky Needle Force.

Regardless of men and women.

Regardless of age.

Looking down from the sky, one can clearly see a broken line of blood leading straight into the depths of the Bai family compound.

"Ahhh! My child! My mother!"

"You beast! I'm going to kill you!"

A man drew his knife and slashed at Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng raised his hand and ripped it apart with the sticky needle force.

"You're being far too cruel!"

At this moment, an old man in black appeared beside Wang Sheng and said calmly.

"cruel?"

"I never lay a hand on the elderly or children! How can that be cruel?"

Wang Sheng realized that the old man in black was at the Transformation Realm, so he stopped waving his hand and spoke.

Are you saying I'm blind?

The old man in black glanced at the corpse on the ground and said in a harsh tone.

"You mean these things on the ground? This child isn't old, and this old woman isn't young. If you can't even tell the difference, it seems you're truly blind!"

Wang Sheng said indifferently.

"You've gone too far!"

The old man in black glared and said angrily.

He had never heard of these heretical and evil doctrines that were almost demonic.

Wang Sheng tilted his head and asked in confusion.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

The old man in black frowned slightly, about to speak again.

suddenly,

Wang Sheng suddenly swelled in size, and with a leap, he arrived in front of the old man in black.

"Good timing!"

The old man in black shouted. As a dignified late-stage Transformation Realm cultivator, would he be afraid of a junior, even if the other party was suspected of having practiced ancient body-refining techniques?

"Transformation of Internal Energy - Thousand Threads Slash!"

The old man in black roared, unleashing the internal energy he had cultivated for decades, which condensed into a visible gray whirlwind in front of him.

Amidst the raging wind, countless strands of condensed energy, like steel needles and sharp blades, intertwined to form a net that strangled Wang Sheng.

Wherever it passed, the air was torn apart, and the bluestone slabs on the ground were instantly crushed into dust!

then,

Wang Sheng threw a punch.

The force of the gray gale was instantly dispersed.

The old man in black's pupils contracted.

Then,

Wang Sheng's countless fist imprints swarmed in.

The dense barrage of fist shadows quickly filled the old man's entire field of vision.

"What right do you have to tell me how to do things?"

"Who do you think you are, daring to act like an old man in front of me?"

"The imperial court? The government?"

"If you want to teach me a lesson, then go die!"

Wang Sheng's cold words were accompanied by countless punches falling.

The powerful internal energy in the black-clad old man's chest was quickly dispersed and cleared away by the immense force within a few breaths.

"No, wait, wait a minute!"

"Young friend, let's talk things out and discuss this!"

The old man in black was horrified and immediately shouted.
