It happened in the blink of an eye.
Feeling the pressure on her neck ease, Sheng Ning immediately kicked Qiu Wenxuan.
This kick was like a tickle to Qiu Wenxuan; it had no lethality whatsoever.
While dodging the attacks from Su Daiyuan and the other four, he looked up at Sheng Ning and said, "Little fellow Daoist, stop struggling."
"Look at your senior brothers, they've all reached the end of their rope. If you obediently let me kill them, I'll be quick, and you senior brothers can at least see each other one last time on the road to the underworld."
Qiu Wenxuan was ruthless towards Sheng Ning.
But having held a high position for so long, when he wanted to kill someone, no one dared to stop him.
Therefore, he found it particularly interesting when Su Daiyuan and the others struggled to save Sheng Ning, which is why he didn't kill Sheng Ning directly.
Unexpectedly, he made a mistake and let Sheng Ning escape from his grasp.
But it doesn't matter. If Sheng Ning were to fall into his hands again now, she probably wouldn't even last a breath.
A smile played on his lips, but it didn't reach his eyes. Qiu Wenxuan reached out his hand to Sheng Ning again, "Be good, I promise I won't hurt you."
When fresh air entered her respiratory tract, Sheng Ning felt as if she had come back to life.
She knew this wasn't the time for her to rest.
She pursed her lips, and when she looked up again, a bright red handprint stood out starkly on her slender, fair neck.
Even swallowing saliva made Sheng Ning's throat hurt.
She did not speak.
When she saw Qiu Wenxuan reach out to her again, she did not immediately find the laser cannon.
Instead, he was using his peripheral vision to survey the surrounding layout.
The Qi family is very large.
There is a long corridor at the main entrance that can accommodate twenty or thirty people standing side by side.
That's enough.
Sheng Ning took a deep breath and felt a dull pain in her lungs. She frowned.
Qiu Wenxuan thought she was scared, and his smile deepened. "Don't be afraid, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, the person in front of him suddenly vanished.
A look of astonishment flashed in his eyes, followed by a hint of delight, "Shrinking the earth to an inch?!"
"You senior and junior siblings have given me so many surprises!"
He hadn't seen the ancient method of shrinking the earth to an inch for many years.
I never expected Sheng Ning to have this trick up her sleeve.
Qiu Wenxuan straightened up, his eyes filled with interest. "I've decided, I won't kill you for now, I'm going to lock you up..."
Before he could even utter the word "come," Qiu Wenxuan, who had turned around to find Sheng Ning, had his eyes light up when he saw the enormous silver artifact behind him.
"There's even a divine artifact."
At this moment, Qiu Wenxuan's emotions were beyond description with mere shock.
His eyes widened as he saw Sheng Ning standing atop the divine artifact. He grinned and said, "Young friend, you've given me far too many surprises!"
So much so that he didn't know how to describe his feelings.
With his feather fan twirling rapidly, Qiu Wenxuan suppressed his trembling fingers and asked, "Young friend, would you be willing to come to the Burning Heaven Palace?"
His attitude changed too quickly.
Sheng Ning remained calm after hearing what he said.
The cold wind howled, causing her clothes to flutter.
Standing atop the laser cannon, Sheng Ning mentally controlled the cannon's muzzle while murmuring something.
After she finally found her voice, she spoke in a hoarse, deep voice, "Noisy."
They hurt her fellow disciples, and they hurt her too.
Sheng Ning has always lived by the motto of "revenge is the best policy".
After pointing the cannon at Qiu Wenxuan, she pursed her lips, and with a thought, the laser cannon immediately fired at Qiu Wenxuan.
Unlike attacks from ordinary magical artifacts imbued with spiritual power.
The laser cannon is extremely lethal; it's so powerful that you'll get burned if you touch it.
So just as Qiu Wenxuan was about to recruit Sheng Ning into his ranks, and the laser cannon was sweeping towards him, he realized he needed to dodge.
He simply didn't understand the power of modern weapons.
The laser cannon is not only highly lethal, but also has excellent tracking capabilities.
No matter how Qiu Wenxuan tried to dodge, the laser cannon could always find him immediately and fire its laser beam.
Even Qiu Wenxuan got angry after running away for so long.
He released his pressure, assuming that the laser cannon was moving in response to Sheng Ning's spiritual power. He thought that as long as he suppressed Sheng Ning, the laser cannon would not chase after him to kill him.
To his surprise, even though Sheng Ning had already knelt down on one knee, the laser cannon showed no sign of stopping.
"Stop! Stop now!"
"If you don't stop, I'll destroy the Qi family mansion!"
An angry voice rang out in mid-air. Sheng Ning knelt on one knee on the laser cannon. After hearing what Qiu Wenxuan said, she grinned.
"Alright, then I'll go blow up the Burning Heaven Palace."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Wenxuan was about to launch an attack on Sheng Ning.
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to make a move at that point.
The laser cannon will lock onto him as soon as he stops.
The moment the laser pierced his body, Qiu Wenxuan stood in mid-air, his eyes wide with disbelief.
The next instant, his lower abdomen was pierced, where his spiritual root was located.
How important is spiritual root to a cultivator?
Qiu Wenxuan is only one step away from transcending the tribulation.
Now Sheng Ning has actually pierced his spiritual root...
Qiu Wenxuan's previously calm face instantly contorted into a grimace.
"Sheng Ning, you deserve to die!"
He shouldn't have delayed killing Sheng Ning for so long, just to tease Su Daiyuan and the others.
Now that his spiritual root has been pierced, even if it can be repaired, it will take a lot of time.
