Death glare!
Hand-crushing system (Requesting monthly votes)_2 At this moment, all the images of Chen Dengming’s composed demeanor, his plain speech, his unassuming appearance, overlapped in his mind, exploding like thousands of thunderclaps…
“Luo Huatian!”
The voice that came from Chen Dengming’s mouth was still so calm and flat.
The Golden Core Luo Huatian and his disciple Master Qiandan both trembled slightly, immediately leaning in to listen respectfully, their hearts pounding like rabbits.
...
It seemed as though his calm voice could determine life and death, akin to the authority of thunder from the heavens.
“Junior Luo Huatian is here, please enlighten me, senior!” With fear trembling at his heartstrings, Luo Huatian had to feign composure and respectfulness, hoping his attitude might redeem him.
He surely knew what he was doing, he even vaguely guessed Chen Dengming’s identity, an identity frightening enough to split his soul from his body.
Chen Dengming, his gaze serene, standing with his hands behind his back, said, “The crimes your disciple committed were all confessed just now.
Though you were not present, you must have been aware.
Do you admit guilt?”
Master Qiandan’s eyes glazed over for a moment, his expression one of fear and then bewilderment, the bewilderment that comes with the uncertainty of life and death.
Luo Huatian wanted to ask what crimes Qiandan had admitted to.
But at that moment, his nerves were tauter than a bowstring made of bull’s tendons.
When he met Chen Dengming’s calm but commanding gaze, he felt at a loss, managing only to stammer out.
“Junior, admits guilt!
This junior has failed in instructing his disciple, nearly causing a grave error!
Please…”
Before he could finish his words, Chen Dengming’s eyes swept past him, a tremendously mighty Divine Thought instantly invading Master Qiandan’s body.
“Interfering with court affairs, death penalty!”
Master Qiandan’s eyes immediately filled with blood.
His head bizarrely swelled to twice its size, his veins rising under his skin like earthworms, his entire body’s blood vessels seeming about to explode, and he fell headlong to the ground, his body twitched twice, then he was breathless.
A Foundation Establishment Cultivator, dead with just a stern glare.
This terrifying method of killing sent shivers down the spines of all those who witnessed it.
Luo Huatian gasped, kneeling stiffly in place, not daring to look at his disciple, silent, the flesh on his face taut like beef tendons, his heart heavy as if it were filled with lead.
He clearly understood; now that Qiandan’s crimes were exposed, he too would not escape death.
For all of Qiandan’s actions were directly instructed by him.
A Nascent Soul True Monarch would not fail to see this point.
The Princely Heir Bai Shouhong, who had just descended from the sky, watched the scene with trembling awe, feeling as if vague images were continuously flashing through his mind.
He just felt that the senior standing before him, appearing so ordinary yet awe-inspiring, as well as the veiled senior by his side, exuded a sense of familiarity.
“Luo Huatian!”
Chen Dengming’s gaze suddenly swept towards Luo Huatian, seeing the other’s unease, as if he were sitting on pins and needles, he let out a smile and shook his head.
“I, too, once knew an elder from the Elixir Sect, but I do not know his name.
That elder, he somewhat resembles you…”
Luo Huatian was startled, a huge hope surging from the depths of his heart, about to ingratiatingly inquire about that person’s name.
Chen Dengming spoke, “That elder from the Elixir Sect was like you, fond of stirring up storms and not behaving properly.”
Luo Huatian’s inner turmoil nearly burst out as the immense hope he had just felt instantly vanished.
It was as if this was the ultimate judgment; his muscles and nerves suddenly relaxed, as if they were about to abandon him.
Even his kneeling knees seemed utterly numb, the surrounding gazes and breaths blurring.
The next moment, his mind jolted, and his vision went dark.
“Manipulating the throne, death penalty!”
Inside the King’s Mansion, silence fell in an instant.
Everybody looked on in shock and fear at the Golden Core Great Cultivator Luo Huatian, who was also killed with just a glance.

Watching Luo Huatian fall, even his posture as he hit the ground headfirst, was similar to his disciple Master Qiandan’s.
It turned out that at the time of death, a Golden Core Great Cultivator was no different.
He too faced the earth and died from a mere glance.
Chen Dengming made a sealing gesture and from his Storage Bag appeared a dragon-head cane radiating cold Soul Power fluctuations.
Everyone around suddenly felt weak, staring at the cane, their eyes almost suctioned to it, feeling as if some force within them wanted to fly out.
This was the new Soul Fetching Bow and Rod that Chen Dengming had commissioned over the past eighteen years through his ongoing cooperation with the Starfall Nether Spring Ghost Monarch and refined by the Seven-eyed True Monarch.
Upon the appearance of the rod, Chen Dengming reached out to grasp it.
In that grabbing gesture, the shattered Golden Cores and Divine Spirits of both Master Qiandan and Luo Huatian were sucked out, soaring into the rod to keep the Starfall Old Ghost’s Nascent Soul company.
Su Yanyan, who had been like an invisible person allowing Chen Dengming to operate, only glanced at him now, astonished by his adept and fluent soul-fetching technique.
“Senior Sister, it seems like the situation is not good.”
At that moment, Chen Dengming’s telepathic voice resonated in Su Yanyan’s mind.
Su Yanyan came to her senses and looked towards the bewildered, frightened Bai Shouhong, nodded, and telepathically said.
“Indeed, the souls of our second senior brother and the Princely Heir Bai Shouhong have not completely fused through this incident.
In theory, having exposed the Elixir Sect Golden Core’s crimes onsite and carried out judgment, their Divine Spirits should have been shaken.
Especially Bai Shouhong’s Divine Spirit, which should find solace in seeing revenge taken.
But now it seems there is a discrepancy…
Their Divine Spirits are still not fusing quickly.”
