A group of people rode on a pack of demonic beasts, charging recklessly through the small town. Xia Feng, accompanied by several women, had just arrived, planning to sample some street snacks.
At that moment, the demonic beasts were upon them. For ordinary people, there would have been no time to escape.
These individuals clearly engaged in such behavior often, and the current situation was no different.
Everyone was filled with regret, believing Xia Feng and his companions were doomed to perish under the hooves of the demonic beasts.
But just then, a beam of black light shot out from behind Xia Feng.
The light quickly transformed into a colossal black sword, bisecting all the demonic beasts.
The sound of the fallen beasts echoed, and everyone was stunned. Standing before Xia Feng, a figure in white, Liu Chan, held a long sword.
Liu Chan was a genuine Saint Venerable mid-stage expert, a truly formidable presence in the entire Saint Realm.
Usually, it was Xia Feng who took action, but Liu Chan hadn't had the opportunity.
For minor matters like today's, Xia Feng didn't need to intervene; she could handle it herself.
This sudden turn of events left everyone in the town dumbfounded. For years, this group had been lording over the town, extorting treasures brought back from the Valley of Death.
If half the spoils weren't handed over to them, these people would resort to murder and robbery.
However, they did leave a small concession: they wouldn't take everything, only half.
If they plundered everything, no one would come to seek treasures, effectively cutting off their own lifeline.
Later, due to the immense gains from the Valley of Death, people gradually accepted the practice of handing over half. The group that used to rob transformed into guardians of the Valley of Death, demanding half of all treasures brought out.
It was a laughable situation.
Therefore, when people saw someone confronting them, they felt a surge of joy.
Having become like rats in the street, reviled and hunted by all, this group had seemingly run into a solid wall today. Who wouldn't be excited?
Everyone watched Xia Feng and his group with an air of anticipation, as if watching a play.
Liu Chan had only just killed the demonic beasts, not the people. So, after falling to the ground, the group rose, weapons in hand, and glared menacingly at Liu Chan. "How dare you oppose our Death Squad and slay our demonic beasts? I think you're tired of living."
After uttering this fierce threat, the man directly pulled a horn from his embrace and blew it without warning, summoning reinforcements.
Given Liu Chan's display of skill in slaying all the demonic beasts with a single sword, her strength was undoubtedly immense, possibly even at the Saint Emperor realm. Therefore, they needed to call for backup immediately.
Because this group's own strength was insufficient, and Liu Chan hadn't revealed her full power, they couldn't accurately gauge her strength.
Thus, they knew a direct confrontation would be futile, making calling for reinforcements their best course of action.
"You can wait for your doom. We've already notified our captain. Anyone who dares to anger us will face dire consequences," the man declared, specifically glancing at Xia Feng's group. Apart from Xia Feng, the man, the women were all as beautiful as celestial beings. To have slept with even one of them would be an incredibly blissful experience.
"If you women spend a few nights with us, there might be room for negotiation," the man added, a lewd smile spreading across his face.
Xia Feng glanced at the group, unwilling to waste any more time, and instructed Liu Chan:
"Chan'er, leave none alive."
