Open up and break into another world

Xu Ming was taken aback; he hadn't expected Sect Leader Gu to ask such a "direct" question.

"I can kill him!" Xu Ming also gave a very direct answer.

"This Wu Xiong, although only a half-step into the Core Formation stage, has strength no weaker than a martial artist who has just entered the Core Formation stage," Gu Kongshan added.

Poor Wu Xiong still wore an ignorant and arrogant face, condescendingly clinking glasses with several elders of the Liang faction; he had no idea that disaster was imminent.

This coming-of-age ceremony lasted until late at night.

Flesh and blood of Core Formation stage demon beasts, precious vegetables filled with profound energy, century-old vintage wine… the guests and hosts ate and drank to their hearts' content.

For many Innate and half-Innate martial artists of the Savage Desolation Sect, this coming-of-age banquet was simply a "celestial feast"! Not only were there fine wines and delicacies to eat and drink, but after eating and drinking, unknowingly, even their cultivation had deepened a lot.

…

The next morning.

For martial artists, it is difficult to get drunk from drinking. Moreover, even if they do get drunk, with the strong physique of a martial artist, they can recover after a short sleep.

"Elder Liang, Sect Leader Gu, I will take my leave first!" Before leaving, Wu Xiong glanced at Gu Kongshan with a smug look, thinking—you must be very unhappy that my Sect Leader outmaneuvered you, right? But what can you do even if you're unhappy? You can only endure it, right?

As a special envoy of a top Yellow-ranked force, Wu Xiong had long been accustomed to lording it over those ordinary Yellow-ranked forces. Even figures at the level of Sect Leaders of ordinary Yellow-ranked forces would not dare to go against his face—because, when he was on a mission, he represented the Hidden Kill Sect!

"I'll see you off," Gu Kongshan suddenly said.

Gu Kongshan's "see you off" was not just as simple as "see you off."

"Heh!" Wu Xiong sneered inwardly—I thought this Sect Leader Gu was so tough, but he turned out to be a coward.

Gu Kongshan saw Wu Xiong off a few steps on the Ten Thousand Step Stone Stairway, and then "secretly" took out a storage ring, quietly transmitting his voice: "Please accept this small token!"

Wu Xiong smiled mockingly and unceremoniously took the storage ring, thinking, "You know what's good for you."

The job of a special envoy is definitely a good one. Wu Xiong had received too many similar gifts.

Watching Wu Xiong walk down the Ten Thousand Step Stone Stairway, Gu Kongshan turned to the crowd and said, "Manor Lord Zhao, Master of the Ten Fingers, Mountain Lord Murong, it is rare for the three of you to come from afar, please come to the 'Strategy Tent' for a chat!"

The Strategy Tent, named after the meaning of "devising strategies," is, in essence… a conference room.

"Okay!"

Zhao Xingyun, Ten Fingers, and Murong De were all leaders of a Yellow-ranked force, and their time was very precious. They came to the Savage Desolation Sect, firstly, to give Gu Kongshan face and attend Gu Hanmo's coming-of-age ceremony; and secondly, to take this opportunity for the high-level members of the four major Yellow-ranked forces to gather together and discuss the future direction of development.

"Please!"

Gu Kongshan led the way, and the three major Yellow-ranked force leaders and all the elders of the Savage Desolation Sect were present, without exception.

…

Leaving the Savage Desolation Sect, Wu Xiong walked unhurriedly on the road back to the Hidden Kill Sect.

He was not worried about his safety at all—those in the Savage Desolation Sect who could kill him were probably only those Core Formation stage elders!

"The elders of the Savage Desolation Sect dare to kill me?" Wu Xiong sneered in disdain.

As a special envoy of the Hidden Kill Sect, Wu Xiong had a life jade slip left in the sect. Once he died, the Hidden Kill Sect would definitely know immediately, and would definitely immediately question the Savage Desolation Sect.

"Kill me?" Wu Xiong was arrogant, "Anyway, I've been running rampant in so many ordinary Yellow-ranked forces, and I really haven't seen anyone dare to disrespect me!"

Wu Xiong knew that there must be many experts who wanted to put him to death, but… did they dare?

Not only did they not dare, but they also had to show a respectful appearance on the surface!

"The feeling of being a special envoy is really good!" Wu Xiong sighed, "That Gu Kongshan, I squeezed him so aggressively yesterday, he must hate me to death! But even if he hates me, what can he do? Does he dare to kill me? Hmph… Not only does he not dare, but he also stuffed a red envelope to me when I left."

Wu Xiong was very proud: "Let me see, what kind of gift Gu Kongshan gave me; if the sincerity of the gift is sufficient, I might as well say a few good words for him in front of the Sect Leader when I go back."

He opened the storage ring given by Gu Kongshan.

"Yo, not bad, a thousand high-grade profound stones!" Wu Xiong was slightly surprised. This was a generous gift, "He's quite sensible, this Gu Kongshan. I'll say a few more good words for him in front of the Sect Leader later!"

Wu Xiong also saw that next to the profound stones, there was a note with three words written on it: Tip money.

"Hehe!" Wu Xiong became even more smug, "Gu Kongshan is indeed generous, it seems that I should come to this Savage Desolation Sect often in the future!"

Just as Wu Xiong was feeling complacent, suddenly, a sky-covering array rose up around him.

"Array?" Wu Xiong immediately became vigilant, "Someone is ambushing me!"

Someone actually dared to ambush me on the Savage Desolation Sect's territory?

Wu Xiong was a little surprised and didn't dare to take it lightly. Since the other party dared to come, they must have a certain degree of confidence.

But when Wu Xiong saw the person…

"Hmm? It's him?"

He saw Xu Ming holding a long spear, slowly stepping out.

"Yo, isn't this the Savage Desolation Sect's number one disciple?" Wu Xiong had naturally learned about Xu Ming at yesterday's coming-of-age ceremony; after all, Xu Ming was now a prominent figure in the Savage Desolation Sect.

Seeing that it was Xu Ming, Wu Xiong immediately felt relieved.

"What does this hothead want to do? Does he want to kill me?" Wu Xiong was very disdainful in his heart, "He probably is also a suitor of Gu Hanmo, and seeing my young Sect Leader's betrothal gifts, he couldn't stand it in his heart, so he foolishly ran to retaliate against me!"

"Retaliate against me?" Wu Xiong sneered, "Young people are easily impulsive, and they don't know the immensity of heaven and earth just because they think they have some skills!"

"Xu Ming, right?" Wu Xiong looked at Xu Ming playfully, "What do you mean by setting up an array and being so murderous?"

Xu Ming stood with his spear, not in a hurry to attack, and only said two words: "Kill you!"

"Hahahaha…" Wu Xiong laughed loudly, "Kill me? Just with your five-layered perfect domain?—You must not have understood my strength, right? You must have thought that I only have a half-step Core Formation cultivation, so you think I'm easy to deal with, right?"

Xu Ming still just stood with his spear, not attacking.

"It's a pity, you miscalculated my strength! Although I'm only a half-step Core Formation, even martial artists who have just entered the Core Formation stage are not necessarily my opponents!" Wu Xiong was still boasting there, "Hahaha, how is it, are you scared? It's too late! Since you've delivered yourself to my door, I'll capture you back to the Hidden Kill Sect! Haha, a peerless genius that the Savage Desolation Sect rarely sees in a hundred years will fall into my hands like this! Capturing you back will definitely be a great achievement!"

Xu Ming only smiled coldly: "Do you know why I haven't attacked yet?"

"Why?" Wu Xiong couldn't help but ask.

"Because… I'm timing it!"
