<h4>Chapter 654: Chapter 650: A Message for the Peng Family</h4>


    "Not good, he’s a Martial Artist who has cultivated True Qi, we’re no match, retreat."


    Seeing Lu Tianxing cleanly taking out the leader, the remaining four men’splexions drastically changed, seeing no possibility of continuing the fight, they immediately ran towards the distance.


    Though their skills were not bad, they were merely Yellow-level Martial Artists without any cultivated True Qi. Facing a Martial Artist who had cultivated True Qi, death was certain; they wouldn’t foolishly sh head-on with Lu Tianxing.


    "Run? Since you came, you should all stay behind!"


    A bloodthirsty intent shed across Lu Tianxing’s face as he slowly picked up two pebbles from the ground, his arm trembling slightly. The pebbles whirled through the air like bullets, with a whistling sound, they broke through the air, and following that, the two fleeing men let out piercing screams, crashing heavily to the ground, lifeless.


    Hearing the screams behind them, the remaining two burly men ran even faster, not daring to pause any longer.


    Unfortunately, they didn’t know that they were facing a warrior from the Mythical Realm, and in the eyes of Lu Tianxing, their speed was as slow as ants crawling. In a sh, Lu Tianxing’s figure already appeared in front of the two men.


    Seeing Lu Tianxing blocking their path, the remaining two burly men trembled, fear evident on their faces. They exchanged a look, a ruthless expression shing in their eyes. One of them lunged directly at Lu Tianxing, arriving beside him in a sh, and delivered a kick.


    The other man made a beeline for Bai Zhiqing, clearly nning to capture her to use as leverage against Lu Tianxing.


    Lu Tianxing, seeing this, let a cold light flicker momentarily in his eyes. Without waiting for the kick toe close, he struck the big man’s chest with a palm, a crisp snapping sound echoed. The man’s body immediately stiffened, and his chest caved in. Blood spurted out as his eyes instantly lost their luster.


    Meanwhile, the other burly man, his eyes shimmering with a fierce light, elerated to his utmost speed towards Bai Zhiqing. He had realized that five of them were no match for Lu Tianxing; the only chance to survive was to capture Bai Zhiqing.


    Watching Bai Zhiqing standing still on the spot, even showing a hint of a smile, the big man’s heart skipped a beat, his face slightly changing. Before he could react, he felt intense pain in his arm and suddenly a tight sensation around his throat, his body being lifted off the ground by a hand clutching his neck.


    "You... what do you want to do."


    The big man looked at Lu Tianxing with eyes filled with utter fear. Although the five of them weren’t considered top experts in the Peng Family, their skills were certainly not weak; otherwise, Elder Chen wouldn’t have sent them to capture Bai Zhiqing. But never had he imagined that in a blink of an eye, four were dead, leaving him alone.


    At that moment, in the big man’s heart, Lu Tianxing was no longer human, but a demon d in human skin.


    "Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. I just want you to ry a message to the Peng Family, tell them this matter isn’t over. I will personally seek an exnation from them," Lu Tianxing said indifferently, tossing the big man aside like trash.


    As far as he was concerned, killing this big man or not did not matter. The Peng Family had sent them to cause trouble for him, besides kidnapping Bai Zhiqing, an important aspect was likely testing his own strength. In other words, just pawns. Killing them all wouldn’t serve a purpose, better to have him carry a message to the Peng Family, keeping them living in fear.


    "You... you really won’t kill me?"


    The big man widened his eyes, his face filled with disbelief as he stared at Lu Tianxing, surprised that Lu Tianxing, who had mercilessly killed hispanions, would spare him.


    "Of course."


    Lu Tianxing said indifferently, "When you return, deliver a message to the Peng Family for me. Tell them to clean their necks and wait, for I will personally settle this matter with them."


    Saying this, Lu Tianxing turned and walked toward Bai Zhiqing, gently holding her waist as they headed toward the bustling street.


    Watching Lu Tianxing leave, the burly man sighed in relief. He swore that once he ryed this message to the Peng Family, he would leave them forever. He had a feeling that if the Peng Family did not recognize the good from the bad, they mightpletely vanish from Xiangjiang from now onward.


    Bai Zhiqing wrapped her arm around Lu Tianxing’s, yet her gaze stayed on him, filled with confusion. In her heart, Lu Tianxing was not a kind person, especially when dealing with enemies, as he never showed mercy—a trait evident from several of his past actions.


    Unfortunately, today Lu Tianxing had unexpectedly shown mercy, which waspletely out of character for him.


    "Lu Tianxing, aren’t you afraid that letting him go will cause him to return to the Peng Family and continue to cause trouble?" Bai Zhiqing asked with some worry.


    Having been with Lu Tianxing for a long while, Bai Zhiqing had gradually understood a principle: reality was sometimes more brutal than the business world. Although the business realm, dubbed the secondary battlefield, imed to be a ce of bloodless killings, there were hardly any actual fight-to-the-death scenarios. However, in real life, battles are deadly, and a moment’s carelessness could cost one’s life, leaving no chance for survival. She faintly understood why Lu Tianxing never showed mercy when faced with danger—it was probably to cut off future troubles permanently.


    Seeing the worried look on Bai Zhiqing’s face, Lu Tianxing chuckled lightly and said, "Don’t worry. There’s a saying, ’Three strikes and you’re out.’ If the Peng Family really fails to recognize this, I will make them understand what fear is."


    As soon as he finished speaking, a fierce killing intent shed in Lu Tianxing’s eyes. If the Peng Family truly did not recognize their folly, he wouldn’t mind causing another tempest of violence and bloodshed in Xiangjiang.


    "Wife, let’s continue browsing around. Don’t let a bunch of rats spoil our mood."


    "Yeah, I’d like to visit Tianhou Temple and pray for a charm to bless us with peace and safety."


    "No problem."


    Meanwhile, atop a mountain in Xiangjiang, a vi stood magnificently, brightly lit and patrolled by numerous bodyguards.


    Peng Tianhu sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, a cold light flickering in his eyes, while a shattered phoney on the floor before him, demonstrating the extent of his fury.


    "Lu Tianxing, you little upstart from the maind, how dare you threaten me, threaten to wipe out my entire Peng Family! You are indeed full of big talk. Don’t think that just because you have the Huang Family backing you that you can do whatever you want. You really think I’m afraid of you?" Peng Tianhu roared.


    Just now, he had received a call from his subordinate, reporting that all his sent men had failed; four were dead, and the one who had made the call had immediately left Xiangjiang.


    Despite having weathered many storms, Peng Tianhu was stunned at this moment; not because his subordinates were dead—he knew their fate was sealed when Elder Chen sent them—it would have been great if they could have kidnapped Bai Zhiqing and Lu Tianxing. If not, they were simply meant to test Lu Tianxing’s strength.


    But no matter what, he hadn’t expected Lu Tianxing to act so mercilessly, killing four instantly. If it weren’t for the need to deliver a message, perhaps thest one would have been mercilessly killed as well!


    Killing God, an absolute Killing God, just like Cheng Bao,—aplete madman.


    Peng Tianhu mentallybeled Lu Tianxing just so.
