That night.
After the four elders, Xia Guifang had gone to sleep, Wang Xiaoqiang quietly left the apartment alone. He locked the apartment door and then cast a restriction to envelop the entire building.
With this restriction, not only could no one inside come out, but no one outside could get in. Not even a shell could blast through it.
Then, Wang Xiaoqiang directly called his son Wang Pengcheng, telling him to come to Liberty Island. After the call, Wang Xiaoqiang, under the cover of night, flew directly into the sky towards Liberty Island.
Liberty Island is also known as Goddess Island because there is a Statue of Liberty there, known throughout the world.
When Wang Xiaoqiang arrived at Liberty Island, he found that Wang Pengcheng had not arrived yet. Wang Pengcheng's cultivation base wasn't enough for skyflight, so he had to drive, and driving was naturally not as fast as flying.
Wang Xiaoqiang descended in front of the Statue of Liberty, gazing at it under the night sky. This statue symbolizes freedom, representing that the United States is a free country. However, Wang Xiaoqiang felt that as a mortal, there is no absolute freedom in this world unless, like him, an Immortal, one could live a carefree life.
The Statue of Liberty isn't as sensually pleasing as the Venus statue, so after a brief look, Wang Xiaoqiang lost interest and walked to the seaside to enjoy the sea breeze.
After a while, a sports car zoomed over. Wang Xiaoqiang used his Heavenly Eye to scan and saw his son Wang Pengcheng inside the car. With a sweep of Divine Sense, he discovered his son had seven Five Elements Spirit Springs inside him.
In other words, over these seven years, Wang Pengcheng had only differentiated six Five Elements Spirit Springs. This result clearly didn't meet his expectations, so Wang Xiaoqiang shook his head slightly disappointed.
Wang Pengcheng stopped the car, opened the door, and walked over, immediately saying, "Dad, about today, I'm really sorry." Wang Pengcheng was still brooding over the unpleasant incident at the supermarket earlier in the day.
"There's no need for such formalities between father and son." Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand, "Do you know why I asked you here tonight?"
"I don't know." Wang Pengcheng shook his head.
"Seven years, and you've only differentiated six Spirit Springs." Wang Xiaoqiang said, "It seems you haven't realized the importance of the Five Elements Spirit Spring."
"Dad, you're right; I have been slack. But rest assured, I will work harder on cultivation from now on." Wang Pengcheng lowered his head and said.
"Tonight, Dad is giving you a trial opportunity." Wang Xiaoqiang's mouth curled into a cruel smile.
"A trial?" Wang Pengcheng asked in surprise.
"Don't understand what trial means?" Wang Xiaoqiang looked at his son and smiled, "Haven't you ever played computer games?"
"Of course I have. Isn't it just defeating monsters to level up?" Wang Pengcheng laughed, "I get it..."
"It used to be virtual games, but tonight, it's going to be the real deal..." Wang Xiaoqiang smiled, speaking as calmly as if discussing a game.
Wang Pengcheng's face changed, "Dad, it can't be killing people, right?"
"That's right, it's killing people, and it's very brutal. You can treat people as the monsters in the game and kill to your heart's content..."
"Dad, this is a society governed by law now." Wang Pengcheng was somewhat scared.
"With Dad here, you don't have to worry too much. Even if the sky falls, Dad will hold it up for you." Wang Xiaoqiang patted his son on the shoulder and then said, "As a cultivator, just burying your head in cultivation is far from enough. You also need trials to temper your mind and accumulate combat experience in life-and-death battles..."
"It's not a world for warriors anymore." Wang Pengcheng said, having never killed anyone and not wanting to.
Many things can only be understood through experience, otherwise, no matter how much others say, it'll just be empty words, not reaching the heart. Wang Xiaoqiang knew that saying more now was useless, so he said, "If you don't want to kill, you can, just stay aside and watch."
At this point, three SUVs drove over. Wang Xiaoqiang activated his Heavenly Eye to scan and found three people in the first SUV, each hiding a short blade. In the second SUV, there were also three people, each with a pistol and a submachine gun. The third SUV also had three people, but these three carried no weapons. However, their bodies were flashing with red dots. A sweep of Divine Sense revealed that their blood qi was vigorous, ten times more so than ordinary people, and it was extremely sinister, evidently vampires.
The three SUVs stopped ten meters away from Wang Xiaoqiang and his son. Three people got out of the first SUV and walked towards them.
They stopped three meters in front of Wang Xiaoqiang and his son. The leader was in his forties with a scar on his face. The other two were very young, only in their twenties.
The scar-faced man glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang and his son, then coldly spoke, "You came quite early."
"We came early in hopes that you'll die sooner." Wang Xiaoqiang sneered, "Daring to kidnap my people, you truly are lawless."
Wang Xiaoqiang's words carried such authority that Wang Pengcheng was stunned. He had never seen his father so domineering before.
And the smile on his father's face was exceptionally cold, with intense killing intent in his eyes, making anyone feel apprehensive at first sight.
"Hmph, big talk, killing the young master of the George Clan from the Top Ten Alliances, and still being so arrogant. Tonight, not only will the two of you die, but your family, relatives, and friends will all perish."
"What? The Top Ten Alliances?" Wang Pengcheng exclaimed in fright. He had heard of the Top Ten Alliances, knowing they were the most powerful dark forces globally, even organizations like the Mafia wouldn't dare provoke them lightly. Moreover, the Top Ten Alliances included vampires, those powerful vampires could annihilate superpowered individuals and cultivators.
"Haha, scared, aren't you? Cowering? Why didn't you do anything before?" The scar-faced leader sinisterly stared at Wang Pengcheng, smiling grimly, "Kneel and kowtow to me in apology, and I'll leave you an intact corpse..."
Wang Pengcheng looked towards his father.
"Your expression could be more exaggerated; otherwise, it's really not intimidating." Wang Xiaoqiang sneered, "Actually, I was afraid you wouldn't come because then my son's trial couldn't start..."
"What? Trial?!" Upon hearing this, the scar-faced man immediately waved his hand, "Get them."
The two men behind him immediately moved, with a flash of brilliance under the moonlight, revealing two bright knives. The two men moved as fast as lightning towards Wang Xiaoqiang.
Lucy had informed them of the blond youth's death, but she hadn't told them about Wang Xiaoqiang's abilities. In a short time, the Top Ten Alliances couldn't ascertain Wang Xiaoqiang's background, believing him to be just a small fry in the Martial World, thinking they could easily eliminate him.
Upon hearing Wang Xiaoqiang mention the word "trial," the scar-faced man realized the opponents weren't that simple, and certainly not just small fry in the Martial World, because the word "trial" is only used for superpowered individuals or cultivators, including vampires. Anyway, he often heard internal members mention that vampires frequently go to remote areas for trials.
So after giving the order, the scar-faced man cautiously retreated,
Seeing the knives about to stab Wang Xiaoqiang, who remained still, Wang Pengcheng cried out, "Dad, watch out,"
Reminding as he rushed up, kicking at the two men.
With two thuds, when Wang Pengcheng kicked them, the seven Five Elements Spirit Springs rapidly moved to his leg, releasing the Aura of Geng Metal. White light flashed indiscernibly, power erupted, and he immediately kicked the two men flying away.
Wang Xiaoqiang hadn't moved from start to finish; at this moment, he smiled, not because the enemies were blown away, but because his son had made a move.
In contrast, the scar-faced man was shaken. Those two who led the charge weren't ordinary men either, ex-special forces and outstanding in the mercenary corps, capable of taking down twenty strong men at a breath, armed with knives. Yet, after only one exchange, they were kicked away by the opponent.
It was incredibly terrifying.
The opponent's mention of a trial, now it seemed, wasn't bluffing but very real.
At this moment, he turned abruptly, fleeing towards the third SUV. As he fled, he felt secretly lucky that this action was thoroughly planned with contingencies, or else his life would have ended here. (To be continued.
