Chapter 32  Chu Tian’s Dominance! The Entire Crowd Is Shocked!

Lin Chen and Su Xiaorou were both stunned, their mouths slightly agape. Two elders at the peak of the Profound Palace Realm!

One of them had been killed just by a glare, and the other died upon impact with Chu Tian’s aura!

How terrifying must one’s cultivation be to achieve such a feat…?

Lin Chen’s breathing immediately became rapid as he stared intently at Chu Tian’s back. What he had always yearned for was precisely to have a peerless powerhouse like this to guide him!

And now, he had finally found one!

“How do you know of this Saint’s existence?”

A fiery red phantom appeared above Zhou Mingyu’s head, floating in mid-air. It was an old man with snow-white hair and piercing eyes. He stared at Chu Tian again and again, but could not see through him at all.

Even someone at the early stage of the Dao Inquiry Realm shouldn’t escape his perception—So how was it that he couldn’t sense anything from this young man?

In that instant, he became highly alert. This person appeared youthful, but was very likely a monstrous being thousands of years old, with terrifying cultivation!

Possibly at the late stage of the Dao Inquiry Realm!

If that were the case… then it was dangerous. His current strength wasn’t enough to contend with someone at that level!

He shouted at Zhou Mingyu, “Disciple, retreat immediately! Your master is no match for this man!”

As a former Saint-level expert, the fiery red soul fragment was no fool—On the contrary, he was extremely shrewd!

When faced with an enemy he couldn’t defeat—

Even if it was only a gut feeling, he would flee without hesitation. That was how it was before, and that was how it still was now!

“Disciple, retreat!”

The Saint’s soul fragment urged anxiously. He was bound to Zhou Mingyu’s soul and could no longer exist independently. If they were to separate, he would quickly dissipate.

But Zhou Mingyu didn’t move—Instead, he looked confused.

“Master, you’re a former Saint! How could some young brat with little cultivation background trouble you?”

“Stop pretending and just suppress him already! I can’t wait to loot whatever treasures he’s carrying!”

Zhou Mingyu looked excited. In his eyes, Saints were invincible. Though his master was just a soul remnant, he was still incredibly powerful!

Chu Tian looked like he was barely a hundred years old—In the cultivation world, how strong could someone so young possibly be?

“I’ll pretend you didn’t just say that!”

The Saint’s soul fragment nearly cursed out loud, now frantic like an ant on a hot pan.

When he looked back, he saw Chu Tian quietly staring at him with a faint smile on his lips. The more he looked, the more fear he felt in his heart. He trusted his instincts—he absolutely could not win against this man!

“Mingyu, this man must be over a thousand years old…”

“He only appears young because he took some kind of special medicine. Don’t be fooled by his looks!”

“Listen to me… retreat now!!”

The Saint’s soul fragment kept urging him.

Unfortunately, his soul’s existence depended on Zhou Mingyu’s—If not, he’d have left in a flash the moment Zhou Mingyu opened his foolish mouth.

“What? He’s actually way older than me!”

Zhou Mingyu wasn’t entirely dumb. He quickly realized he’d been fooled by Chu Tian’s youthful appearance. He immediately turned and ran, the Saint’s soul fragment floating behind him, shouting, “Faster! Use your movement technique!”

As he spoke, he shot a beam of light into Zhou Mingyu’s body. In an instant, Zhou Mingyu’s speed surged, leaving behind a trail of afterimages.

Then, the Saint’s soul fragment turned and cast a confusing spell—To obscure their whereabouts and increase their chances of escape. Because he knew that on his own, Zhou Mingyu had no chance of getting away!

Scarlet fog erupted throughout Lantian Town, completely obscuring spiritual perception. Visibility dropped to less than two meters!

Even after all this, the Saint’s soul fragment still felt uneasy. He raised his hand and shot several beams of light into the corpses scattered around Lantian Town.

The dead bodies suddenly stirred—They stood up, growling ferociously, eyes white and lifeless, charging at Chu Tian.

“You disappoint me.”

“I was wrong… I never should’ve had any hope in you.”

“Scatter…!”

With a single word from his mouth, the surrounding fog formation instantly dispersed, and the running zombies collapsed powerlessly. The Dao techniques of the Saint Sovereign’s residual soul were utterly insignificant in his eyes.

Chu Tian raised his hand and made a grasping motion. Zhou Mingyu and the Saint Sovereign’s residual soul, who had already fled over a hundred miles away, were instantly yanked back into the air and thrown to the ground in front of him!

The two landed in front of Chu Tian, unable to move a muscle!

“Young hero, let’s talk this out!”

The Saint Sovereign’s residual soul rubbed his hands together, smiling obsequiously. He didn’t care about his dignified status as a Saint Sovereign in the slightest. After all, survival was what truly mattered!

“Senior, I have a lower-tier Saint-grade talent. If you let me go, I can take you as my master!”

“Surely you’d want a disciple with Saint-grade talent? It would reflect well on you too!”

Zhou Mingyu cried out.

He didn’t believe Chu Tian could resist the temptation of a Saint-grade talent.

Who could refuse a disciple like that?

“You are the most foolish person I’ve ever met.”

“Even the dogs I raise are smarter than you.”

Chu Tian felt a tinge of pity, but he still killed Zhou Mingyu without hesitation. He flicked his finger.

Chi!

A bloody hole appeared in Zhou Mingyu’s forehead. His eyes dulled as he fell lifeless to the ground!

“I’m not willing to accept this! Why did this Saint Sovereign’s residual soul awaken only to do nothing?”

“It’s unjust!”

With Zhou Mingyu’s death, his soul was extinguished. The Saint Sovereign’s residual soul had been residing within his spirit. Now it too was about to perish—Unless it could immediately find a new host, death was inevitable.

Chu Tian looked at the howling soul, his heart completely unmoved. Thinking back on the soul’s earlier behavior, a thought struck him.

“This guy is the remnant soul of a Saint Sovereign. Though he’s arrogant…”

“Just because he sensed he couldn’t win, he gave up all dignity and fled without shame.”

“Clearly, he’s a survivor at heart.”

“To reach the level of Saint Sovereign, he must have mastered the art of survival.”

“Someone like that… would be quite fitting for our Sacred Demon Mountain…”

“This remnant soul might even find a chance to reincarnate and truly become a Saint Sovereign again!”

With that, Chu Tian made up his mind. He brought two fingers together and made a pulling gesture, halting the soul’s disintegration.

“Spare me, senior!”

The Saint Sovereign’s residual soul was clearly terrified, even calling Chu Tian “senior.”

“Don’t make me sound old.”

Chu Tian waved his hand and said, “I’ll give you a chance to live. Let’s see if you treasure it.”

“Of course I’ll treasure it, senior!”

“I’ll cherish it dearly! No matter what your conditions are, I’ll agree—so long as I can live!”

The Saint Sovereign’s residual soul truly embodied the phrase a real man knows when to bend and when to stand tall!
