Qin Shan was dead, killed in place of Shen Feiyu. The members of the Luan Hai Sect scattering in the distance, witnessing this, had their eyes turn red, filled with hatred as they looked at Li Xiaotian.
Li Xiaotian, after a moment of silence, felt a pang of emotion. Qin Shan had died by his blade while saving Shen Feiyu.
One could imagine the kind of person, the kind of master, Qin Shan was, based on this act. He wasn't necessarily a great person, but he certainly hadn't done anything wrong, nor was he someone who acted tyrannically.
And yet, he had just been killed by Li Xiaotian.
He was not a cold-blooded animal. Had Qin Shan been a demon, Li Xiaotian wouldn't have batted an eye at his death.
But not only did Qin Shan have to die, but all other members of the Luan Hai Sect also had to die, including the ordinary people in Lin Hai City who had the blood seed within them.
"Li Wenbo!!!"
Li Xiaotian gritted his teeth and whispered. This time, no matter what, he had to find that person and tear them to shreds!
It was during Li Xiaotian's moment of stunned silence that the Luan Hai Sect members had already fled far away.
But this was not a significant distance for Li Xiaotian; it was merely a matter of a few more slashes.
His consciousness spread instantly, and his aura surged. His Overlord-level strength was unleashed without reservation.
At the same time, the fleeing members of the Luan Hai Sect suddenly felt enveloped by an intense killing intent.
"Heh heh! I am not resigned!"
Someone let out a bitter laugh, knowing escape was impossible, and thus stopped.
"Sect Master! How hateful! We cannot avenge you! Nor can we expose Li Xiaotian's true face!"
Someone gritted their teeth, no longer fleeing. They turned to face Li Xiaotian, their eyes filled with hatred.
"Feiyu! Escape! We two will hold off Li Xiaotian for you. You must live and avenge us!"
On the other side, two Luan Hai Sect experts, who were fleeing with Shen Feiyu, had their expressions change drastically. Without hesitation, they pushed Shen Feiyu away and immediately turned to face Li Xiaotian.
"Ahhhh!!! Li Xiaotian, if I don't avenge this, I swear I am no human!!!"
Shen Feiyu roared, tears of blood streaming from his eyes. He burned his internal energy and fled frantically, determined to escape!
"It's useless. I will avenge you all."
Li Xiaotian whispered. Neither Shen Feiyu nor any other fleeing members of the Luan Hai Sect would escape.
When an Overlord-level expert made a move, unless an equally powerful expert intervened, none of Shen Feiyu's group could escape.
Therefore, he could only guarantee that after killing Shen Feiyu and the others, he would find Li Wenbo and avenge them.
"Buzz!"
Li Xiaotian's blade moved. At this moment, the entire Lin Hai City was enveloped by his blade intent. Everyone felt as if a knife was pressed against their hearts, their bodies growing cold.
"Die!"
Li Xiaotian whispered, swinging his long saber.
At this instant, a wave of blade light flashed across the sky. In front of those members of the Luan Hai Sect who had the blood seed within them, blade light suddenly flickered.
"Stop!!!"
"Hold your hand!!!"
"Li Xiaotian, as an Overlord-level expert, attacking the weak, are you not ashamed?"
"Is this how Great Qin treats its allies? After using us, you plan to discard us like worn-out tools?"
"Li Xiaotian, do you want Great Qin to be embroiled in conflict again? Facing the entire world?!"
Just as Li Xiaotian was about to strike, suddenly, from the horizons surrounding Lin Hai City, figures began to fly rapidly. Even from afar, their voices echoed throughout the city.
A dozen or so experts, erupting with terrifying auras, streaked towards Lin Hai City. At a glance, there were over twenty such experts, and each of their auras was no weaker than the late stages of the Emperor level.
In an instant, these newly appeared experts all made their moves, neutralizing Li Xiaotian's attack and rescuing the members of the Luan Hai Sect.
Upon seeing this, a trace of self-mockery flashed across Li Xiaotian's face. He knew that the grand performance Li Wenbo had prepared for him was only truly beginning.
He had underestimated Li Wenbo's moral bottom line, and he had also underestimated the man's methods.
Time rewound to half an hour earlier. At that time, Li Xiaotian had just annihilated the Shen family, and the experts of the Luan Hai Sect had coincidentally arrived at Lin Hai City.
On the internet, a piece of news suddenly appeared, and with the speed of a viral outbreak, it quickly spread across the entire network.
"Li Xiaotian indiscriminately kills innocent people, needlessly annihilating the secular Shen family, attacking the ancient sect Luan Hai Sect, intending to cross the river and demolish the bridge, and destroy all ancient sects in the world!"
The news detailed Li Xiaotian's actions in Lin Hai City and was updated in real-time. By now, the outside world knew of Qin Shan's death at Li Xiaotian's hands.
Upon seeing Li Xiaotian's actions online, countless people were shocked and disbelieving, filled with anger and fear.
The entire internet was instantly engulfed by a storm.
"What?! Is this true? How is this possible? Lord Li is an Overlord-level expert, how could he attack ordinary people?"
The first reaction of anyone seeing this news was disbelief, their hearts filled with shock.
"Li Xiaotian is the second most important figure in Great Qin, holding a noble position. What is he doing?! Is he really planning to discard us like worn-out tools? Is Great Qin going to cross the river and demolish the bridge?"
"Absurd! Utterly ridiculous! What being controlled? What not being human? This is simply an insult to our intelligence!"
"Sect Master Qin is dead! The sect leader was killed in public by Li Xiaotian!! Is Li Xiaotian really preparing to tear down the facade and eliminate us ordinary sects one by one?"
The internet was already in an uproar. Ordinary people found it hard to believe, thinking it wasn't real.
The ancient figures, however, were filled with immense anger. In their eyes, Li Xiaotian had broken the rules. After unifying Yan Zhou, he was preparing to eliminate the ancient sects?
At this moment, a burning rage flickered in the hearts of the ancient figures. They absolutely would not allow Li Xiaotian to act recklessly!
This was why, at this moment, many powerful experts from ancient sects not far from Lin Hai City were setting out, heading towards Lin Hai City. They wanted to ask Li Xiaotian in person why he was acting this way.
This led to the scene unfolding before them!
