78: Call one and cut one, then call again

"Call someone..."

Jiang Siyu was stunned, hearing such arrogant words for the first time.

However, she was from the Upper Thousand Provinces, so she didn't panic. Besides, she had a life-saving Supreme treasure on her.

"I am Jiang Siyu, the direct daughter of the Jiang Family of Tianwu Realm in the Upper Thousand Provinces. May I ask who Your Excellency is...?"

After witnessing the strength of the opponent's Dao Protector, Jiang Siyu immediately understood that this person could not be fought head-on. The disparity in strength between the Dao Protectors was so obvious, which meant the opponent's Family must also be formidable.

Moreover, in the large Families of the Upper Thousand Provinces, everyone's attitude was to know when to stop. Jiang Siyu was thinking that after revealing her identity, she would see if the other party could let her and Han Feng go.

"Siyu, you're from the Upper Thousand Provinces?"

Han Feng was stunned. Jiang Siyu said she was his other childhood friend, but most of the time she appeared as a younger sister. This was the first time she had been so valiant.

'Maybe there's a chance?'

Han Feng's eyes flickered as he looked at Su Lianxue, then at the high-seated Jun Lingxiao, and finally his gaze fell on his own clansmen.

His childhood friend was actually a person from the Upper Realm. This surprise came too suddenly, leaving Han Feng momentarily at a loss.

It was clear that hope still lingered in his eyes.

But the next moment, Jun Lingxiao ruthlessly crushed this hope.

"I said. Call someone."

"Don't make me say it a third time."

His tone was cold, as if devoid of any emotion, making it difficult to fathom his thoughts.

Even Jiang Siyu, who had met countless people, was no exception.

However, she did understand one thing: the other party was truly impatient.

An invisible killing intent enveloped the two of them. If she didn't call someone soon, she might truly lose the opportunity.

She let out a bitter laugh in her heart, then Jiang Siyu took a jade pendant from her waist and held it in her hand. After channeling spiritual power into it, the jade pendant, capable of withstanding a full-power blow from a Supreme Realm expert, shattered.

This was a life-saving Magic Treasure her father had given her, which could both block attacks and activate her father's jade pendant, letting him know she was in danger.

Everyone watched silently as she crushed the jade pendant. With Jun Lingxiao remaining silent, no one dared to speak.

The scene instantly fell into an eerie silence.

And Su Lianxue's eyes were practically popping out of her head.

"Two Venerable Realm cultivators were so easily slain..."

"Your Highness, just what are you...?"

She looked at the high-seated Jun Lingxiao, her lips trembling. Although it was her own territory, she inexplicably felt that this stage did not belong to her, and she wasn't even qualified to intervene.

She subconsciously took a step back.

Then she looked at Han Feng, who was also frozen in place, unable to move, her eyes flickering, clearly having an idea.

And Jun Lingxiao just looked at Han Feng below, feeling a bit speechless.

Although he could guess that so-called protagonists weren't that easy to kill, this cliché was truly unoriginal and utterly uninteresting.

He had thought Han Feng would suddenly burst forth with some superhuman power, but he didn't expect... it was the old 'call for help' routine.

In his previous life, when reading novels, he found such plots thrilling, but experiencing it firsthand, he found it disgusting.

Jun Lingxiao hadn't rushed to deal with Han Feng all this time because he was pondering a question: what exactly was a so-called protagonist?

You say I'm a villain, so I'm a villain? I have to chase after the so-called protagonist?

So he had been observing Han Feng, not through others' intervention, but judging for himself how to handle Han Feng.

But later, Jun Lingxiao understood.

I don't care about protagonists or villains. If I like you, you can stand and speak. If I don't, I'll kill you casually. Do I need a reason?

It wasn't about protagonists or villains; he simply found Han Feng an eyesore now.

Likes to save the day, likes to help, likes to interfere.

Fine.

Come on, all of you.

"Who dares to touch my daughter?!"

Just as the scene fell silent for a moment, ripples suddenly appeared in the Void Realm above everyone's heads, then a crack opened, and a tall, imposing figure stepped out, roaring loudly.

Traveling from the Upper Realm to the Lower Realm actually didn't require cross-Realm teleportation arrays or similar things. The difficulty lay in needing the coordinates of the world one wished to go to.

And with the jade pendant as a guide, people from the Upper Realm could easily follow the coordinates to reach the Lower Realm.

"Father..."

Jiang Siyu was choked up for a moment seeing her father, but she also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

Fortunately, it was her father who came down this time. Last time she caused trouble, an Elder from the Family came to the Lower Realm. Unlike the Elder, her father was very strong.

Thinking of this, Jiang Siyu regained some spirit and looked at Jun Lingxiao, tilting her head slightly, full of confidence.

How about that? See? I'm not someone to be trifled with!

Just as the rest of the crowd was exclaiming that this would likely be an earth-shattering battle, the very next moment... a sword light shot into the sky!

"Don't stand above Our Highness's head and speak."

With a series of bangs, the protective Dao Qi shattered, the defensive Magic Treasure on his body shattered, and a head with wide, staring eyes, as if still not realizing what had happened, fell to the ground.

"As long as you're in the Lower Realm, you're merely a Venerable Realm. If you had fully prepared for battle and unleashed your Domain from the start, you might have lasted a few rounds."

Jun Zizhuo elegantly sheathed his sword again. Slaying someone of this Rank brought no joy to his face.

The opponent's Qi didn't seem much weaker than his, but unfortunately, he was from the Jun Family, and their foundation and Cultivation Technique levels were different.

And most importantly, no matter if you were a Heavenly Venerable or a Divine Venerable, once you entered the Lower Realm, you were a Venerable Realm cultivator. He couldn't say anything else, but if it was in the same Realm, then he was invincible!

"Father!!"

Jiang Siyu froze for a moment, then cried out in despair.

"!!!!"

Shock. Everyone on the scene was shocked.

This level of battle was not for them to comment on, but it felt like it ended too quickly.

The opponent was a powerful expert who could tear the Void Realm, yet he was extinguished with a single sword strike before he could even utter a word in front of this person?

"Call again."

"..."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Jun Lingxiao still sitting in his black robe, his face indifferent and without any fluctuations, like a god. But the words he spoke... made people feel as if they had fallen into Hell.

The hatred of killing one's father was irreconcilable!

Now, even if Jun Lingxiao didn't speak, Jiang Siyu had to call someone!

She gritted her teeth, without hesitation tearing off a pendant from her neck, then bit her finger to drip her blood onto it. She then tossed it into the sky, and it immediately transformed into a crack emanating chilling Qi.

She wanted Jun Lingxiao and his group to pay the price!

"Who sum... ugh!?"

The person who arrived this time was fast, but Jun Zizhuo was even faster!

A sword light flew directly into the crack, a 'puch' sound came from within, and then there was no more movement.

Jun Lingxiao watched coldly, his eyes showing no joy or sorrow. It was still the same phrase.

"Call again."

These two ordinary words, falling into Jiang Siyu's ears, were like a death knell from the Grim Reaper.
