Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Perhaps Chen Tian was too engrossed in his thoughts, for even he didn't realize that as he grieved, a chilling aura involuntarily emanated from his body, sweeping outwards like a nimble, icy wind.

Originally, many small vendors were hawking their wares beside Chen Tian, but upon feeling this frigid wind, they couldn't help but shiver. They felt the weather was strange today, as if the heavens were angered. In their fear, they immediately packed up their stalls and hurried home.

As Chen Tian walked along, the vendors on both sides hastily packed up, so before long, this once bustling street was left with only Chen Tian alone!

The Mi family, as the number one family in Forget-Worry City, also bears the responsibility of safeguarding the city's order. Every day, hundreds of Mi family disciples patrol the city, maintaining law and order.

At this moment, two Mi family members were patrolling here. Seeing the once lively street now deserted, they were immediately puzzled. They exchanged a glance and then, holding their long swords, rushed forward.

From afar, they saw Chen Tian wandering in the middle of the road, his face full of sorrow, a chilling mist swirling out from his body.

Seeing this scene, the two immediately knew that this was all the work of the man before them.

The Mi family's strength is considerable, with three Nascent Soul realm elders in the family. All forces that come to Forget-Worry City must abide by the rules, otherwise, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Mi family.

Those cultivators in the Spirit Gathering and Origin Core realms must also behave cautiously, fearing to provoke the Mi family. But this person before them, with only a mid-stage Spirit Induction cultivation, dared to be so presumptuous. Was he not putting the Mi family in his eyes?

These two represented the Mi family in Forget-Worry City. Therefore, seeing Chen Tian's unrestrained behavior, their faces darkened. Without further ado, they quickly flanked Chen Tian from both sides.

"Halt! Bold maniac, daring to be presumptuous in Forget-Worry City! Surrender immediately!"

Accompanied by a loud shout, the two arrived in front of Chen Tian from the left and right. Their swords crossed, they were about to stab Chen Tian in the blink of an eye.

Chen Tian was originally lost in thought, but hearing the two's angry shouts, he seemed to be awakened. He immediately came back to his senses, glanced left and right, and instantly understood what was happening. With a helpless wry smile, he waved his right hand, instantly forming a purple light shield in front of him, blocking the two's attacks.

Having completed this series of actions in a flash, the two's attacks had already arrived with fierce momentum. But what shocked them was that just as their long swords pierced into the purple light shield summoned by Chen Tian, it was as if they were trapped in a mire. The original fierce attacks instantly vanished. Not only that, but the two were even more horrified to discover that no matter how hard they tried, they could no longer pull out the long swords in their hands.

Seeing this strange scene, the two were greatly disturbed, and a trace of fear appeared in their eyes as they looked at Chen Tian. But as soon as they thought that they still had the Mi family backing them up, the two suddenly regained a bit of confidence, glared at Chen Tian, and shouted, "Do you know that we are the Mi family's envoys? Offending us is going against the Mi family! Are you really not afraid of death?"

At this time, Chen Tian had completely awakened from his previous chaotic state and knew that he had indeed been in the wrong. Therefore, after hearing the two's shouts, Chen Tian didn't say anything but shook his head with a wry smile. Then, with a flick of his sleeve, he removed the purple light shield blocking him.

And just as the light shield disappeared, the two's long swords, which they couldn't pull out, were immediately extracted. However, because all of this happened too suddenly, they were not mentally prepared. Therefore, due to inertia, their bodies couldn't help but stagger back a few steps.

Only after they had just stabilized themselves did a hint of surprise appear on their faces. Originally, they thought Chen Tian would continue to resist, but what they never expected was that Chen Tian would actually be so obedient and remove the light shield. This huge surprise caused their minds to not turn around for a moment, and they didn't understand what Chen Tian was trying to do.

However, even so, they didn't take it too much to heart, only thinking that Chen Tian was frightened after hearing them mention the Mi family's name, and that's why he was so obedient.

Thinking of this, the two became even bolder. One of them, a thin, tall man, stepped forward and pointed at Chen Tian's nose, saying, "Do you know that as a cultivator, you must not interfere with the order of mortals? Your actions just now have violated the rules of the cultivation world, and you even dared to commit violence under the eyes of our Mi family, which is an added crime! Do you know your mistake?"

The reason why this person was so angry was largely because he had been humiliated by Chen Tian just now and wanted to regain the face he had lost.

The two were planning that if Chen Tian couldn't stand their angry shouts, he would definitely rise up in resistance. And at that time, they would summon the Mi family seniors, and by then, they would definitely let the Mi family seniors teach Chen Tian a good lesson, so as to quell the anger in their hearts.

Thinking like this, the thin, tall cultivator turned to look at the other person and winked. That person was also quite clever. When he saw the thin, tall man's gaze sweep over, he immediately understood his intention. So he reached his left hand to his waist and secretly grasped something that looked like a firecracker.

This thing is called a warning flare. There is a small pull ring at the bottom. As long as you pull it open with force, a firework transformed by spiritual power will rush to the clouds thousands of feet high and explode violently.

At that time, all the Mi family disciples patrolling in Forget-Worry City will instantly rush over and surround this place layer upon layer.

The two believed that as long as Chen Tian dared to resist, then that time would be his death anniversary!

Chen Tian didn't know what these two were thinking. After thinking for a while, he said with a slightly apologetic tone, "I'm really sorry, it was all my fault just now. I am willing to take all responsibility and compensate for the losses of those mortals. I hope the two fellow Daoists will not take offense."

Seeing Chen Tian's humble and polite attitude, the two, who were originally harboring ill intentions, were immediately stunned.

They originally wanted to anger Chen Tian to make him do something, but they didn't expect that Chen Tian would be so calm and actually take the blame for everything, which made them unable to find an excuse even if they wanted to get angry.

However, how could these two give up so easily? After a moment of disappointment, the thin, tall man seemed to have thought of something again, and a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes!
