The old man turned around nimbly. His hair was still white, but his tender face, which looked as if you could pinch water out of it, truly lived up to the phrase "white hair and youthful face".

"If I remember correctly, it was you, their father, who personally sent them to heaven."

"No, no, I didn't know I would harm them. I love them." Chen Yi stepped into the line of demonic possession.

The old man shook his head and tapped the ground with his cane. Immediately, a bottomless hole appeared beneath Chen Yi's feet. The incident happened suddenly, and Ji Xiaoxiao didn't care whether Chen Yi lived or died. All that awaited Chen Yi was endless regret and death, the release from all this.

Chen Yi was quickly subdued by the old man, and only then did Ji Xiaoxiao make her move. The full power of her mid-stage Golden Core cultivation erupted at this moment. Although the old man knew Ji Xiaoxiao possessed some ability, he didn't fully understand it, and he wasn't sure if he could survive the attack unscathed.

The old man's ability resembled spatial manipulation, allowing him to remove or move surrounding objects. Ji Xiaoxiao, however, could levitate and moved with incredible speed, leaving the old man no time to reposition his objects. With the old man losing his advantage, Ji Xiaoxiao's counterattack was exceptionally well-executed.

In the ensuing exchange, Ji Xiaoxiao seized an opportunity and kicked the old man, sending him flying and crashing into the wall. The metal wall, like long-parched earth, was covered with cracks and ravines under the scorching sun.

"Ugh... You're really powerful, practically an omnipotent god. If you had been my research subject before, the 'God-Making Project' would have been completed long ago." The old man spat out mouthfuls of blood, a look of regret on his face.

“But you have no chance.” Ji Xiaoxiao stepped forward, ready to deliver the final blow to the old man.

The old man looked at Ji Xiaoxiao and suddenly burst into laughter. His laughter was extremely loud and arrogant, completely disregarding Ji Xiaoxiao, the victor.

"You think I would be unprepared for such a great undertaking? I have already planted countless explosives in this Heavenly Palace, with the power equivalent to two nuclear bombs. When you kill me, these bombs will detonate, and you will also die."
