I'm not a drama god

A gust of wind swept past Tu Tian's ears.

His pupils contracted sharply as he looked at Chen Ling, who had intercepted his battle flag with just one finger!

How can this be? ?

Now that he's at the seventh level, even an ordinary eighth-level cultivator wouldn't be able to stop this full-force attack from the God of Strength so easily... Has Chen Ling's power really become this terrifying?!

Although Tu Tian's mind went blank, his body reacted extremely quickly, immediately gripping the battle flag and leaning back.

The next second, a flash of cold light almost grazed the tip of his nose!

If Tu Tian hadn't acted quickly enough, that cold light would probably have already severed his head.

Tu Tian staggered backward in the rain until he was completely out of Chen Ling's reach, then he steadied himself with a pounding heart... He looked at the figure in the opera robe holding an umbrella in the rain, and an indescribable sense of defeat welled up in his heart.

Back in the Tian Shu Realm, he was still a match for Chen Ling. After so much growth over such a long period, Tu Tian thought he had improved fast enough. But when he fought Chen Ling again, he couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes!

Chen Ling didn't pay any attention to what Tu Tian was thinking. He looked up at the rain clouds above, raised his hand, and the boning knife transformed into a soaring cold light, flying directly into the clouds.

Amidst the gloomy clouds, the afterimage of a giant centipede could be vaguely seen, flying like a dragon!

"What are you going to do?!"

Looking at the rain clouds in the sky, Tu Tian felt a sense of foreboding for some reason.

"What I do is none of your business," Chen Ling said calmly, her ruby-like eyes slightly narrowed.

Tu Tian was about to say something.

Just then, a faint cry of a baby came from the shop in the heavy rain.

Tu Tian and Chen Ling were both startled and looked at the shop next to them in confusion. The shop seemed to have noticed something and casually kicked a pebble at its feet.

Swah——

The pebble pierced the air and smashed the wooden signboard of the shop, causing a tightly wrapped baby to fall from behind!

The baby's cries became clearer and brighter.

Chen Ling raised an eyebrow slightly.

It was just a baby... No wonder I didn't sense any disturbances around here earlier. It seems highly likely that the child's father or mother hid him to prevent him from being snatched after they went out.

After all, in this evil era plagued by famine, it was not uncommon for adults to eat children.

However, it now seems highly likely that the child's parents will not be coming back.

Tu Tian moved with lightning speed. The instant the swaddled baby fell from the door, he had already stepped directly beneath it and gently reached out to catch the infant with both hands…

But then, a red snake shot out from above, coiled around the swaddled baby in mid-air, and then quickly retreated to one side!

The red snake coiled back into Chen Ling's sleeve. He held the umbrella in one hand and gently lifted the other, steadily holding the baby in his arms.

His eyes were lowered.

The baby's crying grew more and more intense.

"Chen Ling, give me the child." For some reason, Tu Tian felt a little nervous when he saw Chen Ling's eyes. He said in a deep voice, "Your Twilight Society shouldn't accept infants, right?"

"……for you?"

Chen Ling gently stroked the baby's head, and the baby's sharp cries gradually subsided. He said calmly, "Here you go, and then what?"

"And then?" Tu Tian was taken aback, then replied, "Of course we take him back and have the orphanage help us find someone to adopt him... If there isn't one in the Hidden Cloud Realm, there must be one in the Heavenly Pivot or the Spirit Void. In any case, the child is innocent."

"Oh."

Chen Ling nodded, then lightly raised her hand and tossed the swaddled baby to Tu Tian.

Tu Tian finally relaxed, and he immediately hugged the baby in his arms. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly froze on the spot.

Before anyone knew it, the tiny figure in the swaddling clothes had fallen silent... completely stopped breathing.

There was no struggle, no pain; it was as if death was just a moment away.

"you……"

Tu Tian held the baby's corpse, staring incredulously at Chen Ling in the rain, his whole body trembling with rage!

"Chen Ling!! You don't even spare babies?!" Tu Tian's bloodshot eyes widened as his roar echoed through the sky.

Chen Ling did not answer. The brim of the large red paper umbrella obscured half of his face, making it impossible to see his expression. Only a pair of vermilion earrings fluttered in the wind and rain...

Tu Tianzhen was furious. Although he and Chen Ling had a strained relationship, they didn't actually have any deep-seated hatred... In fact, if it weren't for Chen Ling, they might have already died in the struggle for the Tongtian Star Position. After Chen Ling's rampage in the Boundless Realm, he had even joined the other holders of the Tongtian Star Position in defending Chen Ling...

He never thought Chen Ling was a villain, but what he saw and heard today completely overturned his understanding of Chen Ling.

people……

Perhaps things really will change.

"Chen Ling... I will never let you go!!" Tu Tian's eyes were bloodshot. He stomped heavily on the ground, splashing water around him. He took out something from his pocket that looked like a calligraphy book or a talisman and crushed it with two fingers!

An aura mingled with the divine powers of calligraphy and chess spread through the air...

"……Um?"

Sensing this peculiar fluctuation of energy, a look of surprise flashed in Chen Ling's eyes.

As the aura spread, the space around Tu Tian began to violently turbulent, as if some kind of mark had been imprinted on it, like a target in a game of pitch-pot. At the same time, five distant auras began to resonate with it, like arrows traversing space, approaching straight towards this place!

Stab it--!

The first rift appeared beside Tu Tian, ​​and a young man in black crossed space and instantly appeared next to Tu Tian.

Chen Ling also recognized this person; he was none other than Li Shengmen, the Yi Shen Dao, one of the six Tongtian Xingwei, and known as the "Pitch-pot" master.

"It actually succeeded..."

When Li Shengmen saw that he had actually been "thrown" through space, he was also very surprised, as this was the first time he had activated this ability.

Following Li Shengmen, Pu Xiachan, Cui Ran, and the young sect leader also appeared one after another... As the last crack opened, Li Qingshan's figure also emerged.

He was slightly taken aback when he saw the surroundings, especially Chen Ling holding the umbrella in front of him.

"Holy crap, it really can teleport long distances? Life Gate, your ability is amazing!" Pu Xiachan was equally surprised to see herself teleported directly from the Tian Shu Realm to this place.

"This is Hidden Cloud, right...? Why does it still have the aura of the Gray Realm?" Cui Ran frowned slightly.

"Was it the talisman that Tu Tian crushed? Where is the enemy?" the young sect leader then asked.

"That's right, I want to see what kind of enemy is worth the gathering of the six great human stars!" Pu Xiachan was already eager to try. She rubbed her fists together, her eyes showing no fear of battle, only excitement for their first time gathering to face an enemy!

In the pouring rain, Tu Tian slowly raised his hand... pointing to the red figure in the opera robe ahead.

"Gentlemen." A soft laugh rang out from the rain.

"……haven't seen you for a long time."
