203: Chapter 203 Revenge?

Demonic Cultivators

The middle-aged man before them and the seductive woman fighting Gong Hui...

...were indeed demonic cultivators.

It was truly strange.

Ever since the Blood Butcher Old Demon, the frequency with which he encountered demonic cultivators had been increasing.

Before the Blood Butcher Old Demon, he had never encountered one, yet now it seemed he ran into them every few days.

"Which School are you Disciples from?"

Pang Ren asked in a low voice.

His exchange with Hu Miaotong just now, as well as Jiang Qin's current fight with that man...

...were enough to prove that these people were not from any ordinary power.

Earlier, their subordinates had guessed that these people were Disciples of Yuanxu Mountain, as the spirit boat they were on had come from the direction of Yuanxu Mountain.

However, they hadn't taken it to heart.

If they really were Disciples of Yuanxu Mountain, their superiors should have provided them with relevant information.

But after the exchange just now and the ongoing battle nearby...

...Pang Ren couldn't help but feel a hint of doubt regarding their identities.

Could they really be Disciples of Yuanxu Mountain?

If that were the case, then they had been screwed over—screwed over by those bastards.

He didn't believe for a second that those bastards couldn't find out the identities of Yuanxu Mountain's Disciples.

"Who we are doesn't matter,"

Lin Ming said, shaking his head.

Since the other party wouldn't reveal their origins, why should he tell them his?

"Once I've slaughtered you, I'll know."

Pang Ren spoke with murderous intent.

A thick murderous aura radiated from his body, surging directly toward them.

Under this murderous aura, Yu Yaoqin's face instantly turned pale. She couldn't help but take a step back until she was beside Lin Ming, her hands tightly gripping Lin Ming's shoulder.

Lin Ming and Su Lianxue, however, felt nothing.

The ground cracked.

Pang Ren stomped his foot, and cracks appeared on the earth, spreading toward Lin Ming and the others.

Seeing this, Hu Miaotong also sent a surge of Yuan Qi into the ground, neutralizing the opponent's power and stopping the ground from splitting further.

At that moment, Pang Ren performed a Hand Seal.

As the Spell Arts manifested, Hu Miaotong could feel her blood and Qi surging uncontrollably.

Su Lianxue and Yu Yaoqin felt the same. They tried to suppress the surge of their blood and Qi, but found they were completely unable to do so.

Their blood and Qi were entirely out of their control, threatening to burst from their bodies.

Lin Ming, however, was unaffected; such a Spell Arts could not influence him.

It would be absurd if he could be affected by the Spell Arts of a mere Spirit Treasury Realm cultivator.

But he could see that those around him were affected. Aside from Hu Miaotong, who could barely suppress the surge, the blood and Qi in the other two were already out of control and starting to seep out of their bodies.

If this continued, those two would be in danger.

Pang Ren's gaze fell on Lin Ming. Aside from Lin Ming, the other three had been more or less affected by his Spell Arts.

Yet this man was completely unaffected. Given his Spirit Platform Realm cultivation, it should have been impossible for him to resist the Spell Arts.

He likely had some Magic Treasure stabilizing his blood and Qi.

But Pang Ren didn't care much. In his eyes, a mere Spirit Platform Realm cultivator was nothing, regardless of what Magic Treasures he might possess.

It wouldn't change the outcome.

Pang Ren charged directly, his target still Lin Ming.

He couldn't bear to kill the three beauties.

"It's time to end this,"

Lin Ming said with a shake of his head.

Continuing this would be a waste of time. Lin Ming had no desire for further pointless entanglement.

Though he wasn't the one doing the fighting.

"It indeed is time to end this,"

Pang Ren said coldly.

It seemed the boy knew his fate and had given up resistance, which saved him some time.

That is, until he saw a Wooden Sword appear in Lin Ming's hand—an unremarkable Wooden Sword.

Upon seeing this Wooden Sword, Pang Ren suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of dread.

He accelerated his movements to avoid any further complications.

The Wooden Sword left Lin Ming's hand.

It immediately streaked toward Pang Ren.

A surge of Sword Intent erupted from the Wooden Sword.

"Not good!"

Pang Ren also sensed something was wrong.

Bitter Sea Realm?!

This was the power of an Immortal Master.

But it was too late.

The distance between them was too short, leaving Pang Ren with no room to dodge.

A sword through the heart.

The Wooden Sword transfixed Pang Ren's body.

Then, it dissipated.

Pang Ren's life reached its end at that moment.

With Pang Ren's death, the surging blood and Qi within Yu Yaoqin and the others gradually calmed down.

"Damn it."

Jiang Qin noticed Pang Ren's death immediately.

She hadn't expected Pang Ren to be killed.

In their estimation, taking these people down shouldn't have been difficult.

By slaughtering them and claiming the reward, they would have a chance to reach the Kuhai Master level.

Her own opponent was indeed quite strong; she had been at a disadvantage throughout their clash and was no match for him.

But Jiang Qin quickly shifted her strategy. Since she was not his match...

...she only needed to stall him.

She would let Pang Ren finish off the others, and then the two of them would join forces against Gong Hui.

She never imagined Pang Ren would die just like that.

There was definitely something wrong with the identities of these people.

Only now did Jiang Qin realize that Lin Ming and the others must have significant backgrounds; they were likely not Disciples of some ordinary power.

The two of them had been set up—used as pawns.

At this thought, Jiang Qin didn't hesitate for a second. She turned and fled.

Revenge?

She had no intention of avenging Pang Ren right now. If she kept fighting, she might not even survive herself, let alone take revenge.

She would only think about revenge once she had secured her own survival.

However, the man before her had such abundant Yang Qi; he was likely much more powerful than Pang Ren.

"I'll remember you."

Jiang Qin threw these words at Gong Hui and turned to flee.

But how could Gong Hui let her escape?

He had also noticed that Lin Ming had dealt with the other enemy.

He hadn't been too worried about their safety.

But it was a pity that a life-saving trump card had been used up.

What he didn't know was that Lin Ming had as many of those life-saving measures as he wanted.

Since Lin Ming's safety was no longer a concern, he naturally would not let the Demonic Path thief before him go.

"Little brother, are you really going to keep chasing me?"

Jiang Qin said to him.

"Demonic thieves are enemies of all; everyone has the right to execute them."

Pang Ren said with a cold look on his face.

Regarding these demonic thieves, he truly had nothing to say.

Seeing this, Jiang Qin was also trying to find a way to escape.

At that moment, a Sword Light streaked toward her.
