Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
“This man is a mystical cultivator!”
“But, his cultivation is very strong. I can sense his mighty pressure even here. It seems he’s not an ordinary mystical cultivator.”
“He’s going up against the Nine-headed Wolf Mercenary Group’s nine men. The strongest among them has reached the Celestial rank. How can he beat those nine men alone?”
Amidst all the onlookers’ discussions, Ye Jing saw Guan Xilin wield his broadsword and sweep it across to sever the head of a mercenary. Blood splashed on the ground. The frightened commoners around them covered their eyes and screamed.
“Aah!”
“Hiss!”
The screams were mixed with the cultivators’ gasps. They were shocked to see this terrifying man whose body was bursting with battle intent.
His decisive skill, strong battle intent, and terrifying breath brought them an intense shock visually. Could this man resist those nine men single-handedly?
When this thought flashed in their minds, only two of the nine mercenaries left. The mercenaries who were left at the inn rushed out after hearing the noise. When they saw the scene ahead, their eyes turned red and they rushed up with their swords drawn.
Ye Jing couldn’t help worrying after seeing those mercenaries joining the battle. She was concerned that Guan Xilin couldn’t deal with so many people alone. However, if she came to help, not to mention her spirit energy was still sealed, she was no match for these people in strength. For a time, she could only be anxious yet unable to do anything.
The news spread that a bearded man fought against the Nine-headed Wolf Mercenary Group on the street. Many people came to watch. After all, no one dared to provoke this nine-headed wolf in this area. Now that someone was brave enough to fight them, inevitably, everyone was curious. Who was this man? How could he deal with the Nine-headed Wolf Mercenary Group alone?
The sound of the battle, the clanging of swords, the howling and the screams, made everyone around quiet. People held their breath as they watched the men fighting to the death. The shed blood and corpses on the ground made the spectators so terrified and agitated that they wrung their fists tensely.
When the strong exponents fight, those whose strengths were inferior couldn’t get closer. Even their speed slowed down under the mighty pressure. This allowed Guan Xilin to kill.
Dead bodies fell one after another. Some were chopped at the waist, some had their necks severed, and some were stabbed to death with the blade. The b.l.o.o.d.y scene was so overwhelming that the leader of the Nine-headed Wolf shouted with rage and exasperation. “You’ve killed so many of my brothers! Who are you! If you have the guts, tell me your name!”
“Even if I tell you, you won’t know me, your Grandpa Guan!”
Guan Xilin snorted coldly, pointing his broadsword at the ground and staring at the Celestial mercenary. “Today, none of you can escape!”
With this, his figure swept out in a flash. Because of his speed, n.o.body could see his figure clearly. They only knew that a shadow pa.s.sed them by and in the blink of an eye, a sword was swung towards the Celestial mercenary.
The celestial mercenary blocked the attack with his long sword. But, surprisingly, his strength was suppressed so that his posture became lower and lower until he had to bend to his waist. As the cold glint of the blade pressed down in front of his eyes, the smell of death started enveloping him. Cold sweats oozed as he was overcome with shock.
He pushed away with all his strength and dodged sideways. As he prepared to attack, the blade intent swooped towards him and the sharp blade had already pressed against his neck…
