Open up and break into another world

Arriving at the Cloud Garment Sect, Xu Ming found himself in a predicament.

“I was the one who told the Cloud Garment Sect not to relocate, but now that I’m about to leave the Yellow Springs Hall’s territory, who will protect them?” Xu Ming stood in the void above the Cloud Garment Sect, his brow furrowed.

Relying on the Yellow Springs Hall to protect them?

Clearly, that wasn't realistic!

Whoosh!

At that moment, a figure flew out from within the Cloud Garment Sect; it was the Sect Master herself.

“Brother Ming, you’re back!” The Cloud Garment Sect Master was delighted to see Xu Ming.

“Yes!” Xu Ming nodded, then added, “However… I’m about to leave the Asura Sea and head to the Thunder Continent!”

“Ah?” A flash of horror immediately crossed the Cloud Garment Sect Master’s eyes—she immediately realized what Xu Ming’s departure from the Asura Sea meant for the Cloud Garment Sect!

It meant… the Cloud Garment Sect would no longer have anyone to protect them!

It meant… disaster!

“This…” The Cloud Garment Sect Master hesitated.

“Let’s go down first!” Xu Ming said, descending towards the Cloud Garment Sect. He still needed to carefully consider the Cloud Garment Sect’s future.

…

“Brother Ming!”

“Brother Ming!”

In the Cloud Garment Sect’s main hall, Shi Qing, Cen Jing, and others came to see Xu Ming.

Xu Ming, however, was lost in thought, contemplating the Cloud Garment Sect’s path forward.

“Should I have the Cloud Garment Sect relocate now?”

Xu Ming shook his head inwardly—wouldn't that be like slapping his own face?

But if he didn’t have the Cloud Garment Sect relocate, Xu Ming couldn’t think of a way to guarantee their complete safety.

“This is awkward!” Xu Ming felt embarrassed as he looked at the expectant gazes around him.

Time seemed to stand still.

Xu Ming didn’t speak, and the surrounding experts of the Cloud Garment Sect remained silent.

Suddenly…

Boom!

An incredibly domineering aura enveloped the entire Cloud Garment Sect.

The experts of the Cloud Garment Sect instantly trembled like ants being stared at by a dragon.

“What’s going on?”

The experts of the Cloud Garment Sect warily rushed out of the main hall.

Xu Ming also flew out unhurriedly.

The sky had completely darkened, obviously enveloped by some kind of barrier. More than a dozen figures emerged from the darkness, each exuding a terrifying aura.

Xu Ming’s gaze first fell on a gaunt old man.

“Mo Fang!” A hint of killing intent flashed in Xu Ming’s eyes—Mo Fang’s appearance at this time clearly indicated ill intentions.

“I already spared his life, yet he still courts death!” In his heart, Xu Ming had completely sentenced the old ghost Mo Fang to death.

Then, Xu Ming’s gaze fell on the other figures.

“Island Master of Myriad Crows…”

Among the dozen or so figures, the one with the strongest aura was none other than the Island Master of Myriad Crows! The other dozen or so were mostly Half-Step Sovereigns or even Sovereigns!

On the other hand, even if the old ghost Mo Fang hadn’t been injured, he would still be the weakest; now, heavily injured and with a damaged foundation, he was even weaker than the other figures!

“These people should all be experts from Myriad Crows Island, right? —How did the old ghost Mo Fang get mixed up with the people from Myriad Crows Island?” Xu Ming frowned.

The Yellow Springs Hall and Myriad Crows Island had always been opposed to each other!

Moreover, the arrival of the Island Master of Myriad Crows made Xu Ming feel some pressure—after all, this was a Sovereign-level powerhouse!

“Heh heh heh heh…” The old ghost Mo Fang’s shrill laughter was even more unpleasant than a ghost’s wail, “Didn’t expect it, Xu Ming! We meet again so soon!”

“Indeed unexpected!” Xu Ming sneered, “I didn’t expect that I’d already spared you, yet you still insist on courting death!”

The old ghost Mo Fang’s face darkened: “Hmph! You dare to be stubborn when death is upon you!”

“Mo Fang.” The Island Master of Myriad Crows’ voice rang out like rumbling thunder, “You said earlier that Xu Ming has a very high status in your Yellow Springs Hall?”

“Yes, very high!” Mo Fang said quickly, “Even our Hall Master treats him as a brother! And… even acts as if he’s inferior to him!”

“Oh? Even the Yellow Springs Hall Master acts as if he’s inferior to him?” The Island Master of Myriad Crows was even more surprised, “Then it seems that Xu Ming’s status in your Yellow Springs Hall is truly extraordinary!”

The Yellow Springs Hall Master was a peak existence among Sovereigns! Even looking at the entire God Domain, there were few people who were worthy of the Yellow Springs Hall Master acting inferior to them!

“Could it be that Xu Ming obtained some kind of recognition in your Yellow Springs Secret Realm?”

Regarding the existence of the Yellow Springs Secret Realm, it wasn’t a secret. Therefore, the Island Master of Myriad Crows guessed it immediately.

He had to admit that his guess was very accurate.

The Island Master of Myriad Crows’ lips curled into a cold smile: “Xu Ming, when you ruined my plans in the Yellow Springs Hall, you were already on my death list! And the more important you are to the Yellow Springs Hall, the more I want to kill you!”

“Kill me?” Xu Ming said indifferently, “Aren’t you afraid that killing me will cause trouble?”

“Hahahaha… Trouble?” The Island Master of Myriad Crows laughed disdainfully, “You have to have evidence that I killed you! —The entire Cloud Garment Island has already been sealed off by my barrier; not even a trace of a message can be sent out! Who do you think will know that I killed you?”

“Island Master of Myriad Crows!” The old ghost Mo Fang suddenly said, “Later, after you subdue Xu Ming, can you not kill him first?”

“Oh?” The Island Master of Myriad Crows smiled, “You want to torture him for a while first?”

Mo Fang said, “I’m ashamed to say that Xu Ming slapped me quite a few times! I want to slap him a thousand times first, and then kill him!”

“Hahahaha… Mo Fang, you’re really useless! You’re still a dignified God Emperor, yet you were slapped so many times by a kid like Xu Ming?” The Island Master of Myriad Crows laughed contemptuously, “Alright! Then you can slap him later! Not to mention a thousand slaps, even if you want to slap him ten thousand times, it doesn’t matter!”

How fast was a God Emperor’s attack? Even ten thousand slaps could be finished in an instant!

“Thank you, Island Master!” The old ghost Mo Fang’s old face was wrinkled together, looking like a lackey.

“Myriad Crows!” At this time, Xu Ming suddenly said coldly.

The Island Master of Myriad Crows glanced over: “What? Do you have any last words?”

Xu Ming said coldly: “I have no last words, I just want to ask you one thing—is it funny that the old ghost Mo Fang was slapped by me a few times?”

Huh?

The Island Master of Myriad Crows was stunned. Obviously, he didn’t expect Xu Ming to ask such a strange question.

However, the Island Master of Myriad Crows still subconsciously replied: “It’s very funny!”

“Heh heh!” Xu Ming smiled, “Since that’s the case, then I’ll let you see something even funnier!”
