135: Chapter 135 Green Snake Tribe

At this moment, the plaza in the center of the valley was illuminated as bright as day by countless torches.

Long tables stretched for dozens of zhang, piled high with dripping roasted meat and jars of fragrant wine.

Over a hundred core members of the Green Snake Tribe were gathered around the bonfire drinking heartily, while several graceful dancers twirled in the center of the venue, pushing the atmosphere of this celebration banquet to its peak accompanied by the rough drumbeats.

Meanwhile, in a dark corner of the plaza, dozens of blood-stained figures huddled together trembling, their numb eyes filled with terror and despair.

This suffocating sense of detachment was precisely the truest background color of this cultivation world.

The law of the jungle was never any secret rule, but an ironclad law enacted at every single moment.

High above in the sky, your divine sense took everything in at a glance.

Then your figure slightly turned, landing lightly opposite Liu Guanzhi, before you raised your hands flat and smiled brightly at him.

"Little brother~ I'll be heading down first then~!"

Before your voice had even faded, your body felt as if all support had been suddenly pulled away, plunging straight toward the reveling crowd below, kicking up bursts of whistling wind in mid-air.

"Hm?"

The middle-aged man sitting upright in the main seat slightly frowned, keenly capturing the trace of highly unusual fluctuation in the air.

"Big brother, what's wrong?"

A burly Bald Man looked toward him.

"Did any of you hear a sound?"

The middle-aged man swept his gaze vigilantly around the surroundings.

"No..."

The Bald Man was just about to reply when the horse-faced woman on the other side changed expression drastically and let out a startled cry.

"Above!"

The three of them abruptly raised their heads, only to see a streak of red starlight-like flowing light tearing through the night sky, plunging straight toward them with an indescribable, terrifying oppressive might in the air.

"Disperse!"

The tacit understanding forged from years of licking blood from the blade's edge saved the three of them even the trouble of exchanging glances; while violently retreating, the three of them tacitly and simultaneously activated the magical tools in their hands, ferociously striking out at the falling stream of light.

"Clang clang clang~"

A harsh clashing of metal suddenly exploded, vibrating the surrounding air with a humming sound, yet it didn't affect the falling speed of the red beam of light in the slightest.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the scarlet flowing light fiercely smashed into the center of the plaza.

In an instant, the violent air wave took the landing point as its center, transforming into a visible white shock wave that wildly swept in all directions.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly across the hard bluestone ground, violently sending tables, chairs, bonfires, and screaming crowds within dozens of zhang flying like broken ragdolls.

Dust filled the sky, completely swallowing more than half of the plaza.

"Cough cough cough!"

"Damn it, what happened?"

"Where is the Patriarch?"

Curses and panicked footsteps intertwined as the surviving cultivators looked in terror toward the center of the dust.

"Whoosh~"

Without any warning, a scarlet afterimage had already appeared in front of the burly Bald Man.

"Second brother!"

The middle-aged man's expression startled, and just as he was about to move to rescue him, a slender and tall black figure materialized out of thin air like a ghost, blocking his path.

"Your opponent is me."

Blocking him was a handsome, black-haired youth.

The youth did not rush to strike, simply standing guard quietly there, watching the middle-aged man's face distorted with anger.

It seemed that to him, the Foundation Establishment late-stage cultivation was not worth mentioning, and his calm gaze was like examining a readily available prey.

On the other side, you pretended to be intercepted by the horse-faced woman who arrived in time, confronting the two of you while secretly observing the situation on Liu Guanzhi's side with your divine sense.

Seeing this scene, you inwardly curled your lips.

Damn it! This kid is clearly just standing there, why does it feel even more badass than your own gorgeous entrance just now?

Could this be the legendary aura of an expert?

As you were pondering to yourself, your gaze inadvertently swept downward, looking at your own curvaceous and graceful figure, and you let out a secret sigh in your heart:

Forget it, actually it's not that important either.

"You're courting death!"

The Bald Man finally broke free from the shadow of death just now.

But thinking that he had actually been frightened almost to the point of incontinence by a woman, he instantly turned out of shame into anger, roaring sternly:

"Damn it, you..."

You lifted your eyes and swept a light glance at him, and the man instantly fell silent; he felt that if he continued speaking, he might really die.

"Second brother, why are you wasting words with her?"

The horse-faced woman swept a jealous glance across your face, let out a gritting-teeth cold snort, and backhandedly drew a magic tool long saber flashing with cold light, instantly transforming into an afterimage as she charged and killed toward you.

"Clang~"

You casually raised your arm to collide with the long saber, causing the horse-faced woman's expression to change as her figure repeatedly retreated several zhang before stabilizing herself.

Weak, too weak!

The cultivators in this region were far too weak compared to those with sect heritages in Xuanhuang Prefecture. Not only did they lack exquisite spells and secret techniques to rely on, but even the spiritual power within their bodies appeared loose and impure, completely lacking the condensed feeling of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Moreover, as a dignified Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage cultivator, what she used turned out to be merely a top-grade magical tool long saber.

You even felt that back at the Qi Condensation peak, you could have counter-slain the Foundation Establishment cultivators here.

Seeing that Liu Guanzhi hadn't made a move yet, you also timely retreated two steps, your arm trembling slightly.

The horse-faced woman was initially startled in her heart, but seeing your state, she immediately regained her confidence and sneered malevolently:

"Second brother, this woman is nothing much, let's go together!"

The Bald Man gave you a skeptical look, gritted his teeth, and still rushed up together.

"Clang clang clang~"

For a time, three figures crisscrossed, fighting back and forth quite evenly.

Liu Guanzhi swept a peculiar look toward this side, and immediately afterward, his figure flashed without warning, sweeping past as an afterimage.

"Pfft."

Without the slightest superfluous movement, a wisp of dim light condensed at his fingertips had already casually pierced through the middle-aged man's heart.

"Wh—Why?"

Fresh blood gushed out, and the middle-aged man tightly clutched his chest, his eyes filled with disbelief.

His acute divine sense had long since detected the murderous intent, but at that exact instant, his body seemed to be imprisoned by some invisible force, completely unable to make any reaction.

"Go in peace."

Liu Guanzhi abruptly clenched his five fingers, and accompanied by a hair-raising shattering sound, that warm heart was instantly crushed to pieces.

He opened his palm, and a flesh-colored worm that was entirely scarlet and covered in ugly blood vessels all over its body was clinging to his palm, still frantically squirming out of control.

This thing was precisely the sub-gu split from that so-called divine gu—the Myriad Spirits Gu.

"Saving all living beings?"

Looking at the ferocious appearance of the gu insect, Liu Guanzhi let out a light chuckle, then frowned slightly as he looked at you who were fighting merrily, his cool voice slowly sounding:

"Bai Youyou, if you don't finish them off soon, I'll dock one of your Blood Qi Gus."

"Damn it!!!"

The excited smile on your face suddenly froze as you cursed inwardly:

What a black-hearted bastard!
