"Then I'll trouble you, senior." Qi Tian narrowed his eyes, looking at the shadow assassin.
"..."
The man in the cloak didn't know what to say, but he felt underestimated.
This Qi Tian didn't seem to regard him as a senior, a master of skills, nor did he realize the immense threat he posed as a shadow assassin.
How could he say such a thing?
He didn't understand.
Since this fellow wanted to die, he wouldn't mind taking action.
What if he was the young master of the Tool Sect?
Just as Qi Tian said, as long as he handled the aftermath properly, who would know it was him?
Since he couldn't kill Lin Xiao, he would use Qi Tian to practice.
As if sensing the killing intent emanating from him, Qi Tian said with satisfaction, "That's more like it, senior. Since you have killing intent, I can go all out. Otherwise, I'd feel embarrassed to act, as respecting elders and loving the young is our traditional virtue."
The next second, the fists of two puppets landed on the shadow assassin.
And all along, Qi Tian wore a playful smile. He looked at the shadow assassin without a trace of killing intent. Of course, he truly had no intention of killing. His thoughts were simply to snatch the Solar Sun Gold or use this person for an experiment.
Why would he have killing intent?
If he died, it would just be an accident during the experiment.
However, the fists of the two puppets pierced through the cloak without resistance, and the shadow assassin disappeared.
Qi Tian raised his fist and slammed it directly onto the ground.
This punch seemed to have no force, but the next second, his arm emitted a brilliant light, illuminating the entire area.
A ripple of power appeared on the ground, quickly enveloping the entire "laboratory."
Under this punch, the shadow assassin reappeared before Qi Tian.
He narrowed his eyes, reached out, pulled his cloak around himself, and then, without any visible movement, the two puppets, which were considered to be at the Divine Realm, fell apart.
His face appeared for only a second. In that second, one could only see his sturdy physique and his graying hair.
"As expected of a senior."
Qi Tian watched this scene without batting an eye, and his fist, still in the air, struck out.
This punch once again generated countless visible ripples of power.
"It's been too long since I've been in the world. Today's young people have lost basic respect for me," this time, a hoarse voice emerged from under the cloak.
He was very angry.
This Qi Tian not only didn't take him seriously but dared to be so disrespectful.
"Don't blame me for bullying the young."
As soon as the words fell, his body transformed into more than a dozen afterimages, surrounding Qi Tian. Then, the more than a dozen afterimages charged at Qi Tian simultaneously.
At some point, a blade appeared in his hand. The blade was entirely black, completely unlike Qi Tian's glowing fist. It seemed to absorb all light, deep and mysterious, full of danger.
"Alright!"
Qi Tian said, and his arm seemed to sense danger. The crimson patterns on his arm emitted a blinding light.
Then, the red light instantly enveloped him, protecting him.
