590: No pleasure

Just as Shen Bei was fighting Yu Qi and others, killing them all,

the commotion caused had already shaken half the Imperial City.

Although fights and brawls were commonplace within the Imperial City,

and those not overseen by the Night Watchers were even more brutal.

This time, however, the battle between Shen Bei and Yu Qi and his group could only be described as earth-shattering.

Even if the Night Watchers didn't want to meddle, they couldn't ignore the frequent reports from the common people.

Bi Tuo, the Night Watcher on duty, reluctantly led his men to the scene to break up the fight and make arrests.

Originally, Bi Tuo didn't know that Shen Bei was involved in the fight.

Now, seeing Shen Bei acting like a rampaging beast, he was even less inclined to intervene.

How could he intervene?

This was his superior!

How could he disturb his superior's enjoyment?

So, the Night Watchers, who were supposed to stop the fight, became spectators hiding in an alley, waiting for Shen Bei to finish before going out to clean up the mess.

At the same time, the spectators were not just the Night Watchers, but also many other extraordinary individuals from various factions.

It was only after Shen Bei had completely defeated Yu Qi and his ambushers that Bi Tuo led the Night Watchers to arrive.

Meanwhile, extraordinary individuals from other factions, harboring ulterior motives, also began to approach the inner perimeter.

"Sir!"

Bi Tuo saluted respectfully, "This subordinate is late, are you alright?"

Shen Bei glanced at him indifferently, naturally aware of Bi Tuo's little scheme, fearing to offend anyone by participating in the battle.

However, Shen Bei harbored no resentment or blame.

To Shen Bei, they were merely a few insects.

Bi Tuo bringing the Night Watchers to assist would only create more chaos and be unhelpful, not to mention hindering his own display of power.

"Take him away."

Shen Bei pointed at the surviving dead soldier.

This was a crucial witness against Pan Fei, and no mishaps could occur.

"Yes!"

Bi Tuo agreed, waving his hand, and his subordinates immediately took the dead soldier away.

"Sir," Bi Tuo subtly glanced at the other extraordinary individuals on the periphery and whispered, "These people have ill intentions; I fear they might try to take advantage of the situation. Please leave quickly, Sir."

Bi Tuo's concern was not unfounded.

After a major battle, anyone would be in a weakened state. If Pan Fei arranged another sneak attack on Shen Bei, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But Shen Bei didn't care at all, scoffing, "Whoever dares to come, let them fight!"

Since he was going to offend people anyway, he might as well settle everything today.

Weakness?

It didn't exist!

Shen Bei's current strength was such that as long as a Divine Ability Great Cultivator didn't make a move, even if a Martial God came, he could take him on!

If he didn't turn the Imperial City into a bloodbath, he wouldn't be doing justice to his own infiltration!

However, if nothing unexpected happened, an unexpected event would soon occur.

Just as Shen Bei was about to see who dared to sneak attack him, an unexpected event suddenly arrived in an instant.

He directly entered the level of the Five Declines from the Four Declines.

Heart Decline!

At that moment, Shen Bei suddenly felt suppressed, anxious, and low, finding everything meaningless. Looking at everyone present, he felt everything was dull and uninteresting.

At the same time, his head and heart throbbed faintly. This pain was like a real nerve pain, yet also like a self-imagined pain. Although his strength had climbed, his Qi became weak.

Everyone also noticed this change, and some looked at Shen Bei, muttering to themselves.

"Heart Decline!"

"He fought a battle and actually broke through again, directly entering the Heart Decline state!"

"Cultivation... is it that easy? He didn't even get exhausted in this fight, and he can still directly advance a stage."

"..."

Shen Bei, who was in the arena, had lost his previous high spirits. All that remained was a sense of decay and desolation. He stood there, unable to muster any energy, exuding a dead, heavy aura, his eyes vacant.

"How could he enter Heart Decline at this time!" Bi Tuo stood there, his face extremely grim.

Among the Little Five Decays, Heart Decline was the most dangerous.

How many people had committed suicide because of Heart Decline?

When Heart Decline flares up, people become particularly depressed, feeling that nothing in the world is meaningful, and then they end their own lives.

Bi Tuo looked at Shen Bei's current state, like a person whose heart was turned to ashes. In this situation, it would be good if he didn't commit suicide, let alone face other hostile people.

Yes!

Just now, Shen Bei had intimidated all the extraordinary individuals present, but that was under his normal circumstances. In his current state, perhaps someone would have ulterior motives.

In fact, some people did have ulterior motives.

Feng Quan was one of them. He had strong talent, and although he couldn't compare to other famous Young Masters in the Imperial City, he was considered outstanding among the young talents in the capital.

Originally, with his talent, there would have been no problem for him to become a Martial God. But fate is unpredictable; his father, a court official, died unexpectedly.

When a person dies, their influence wanes. His father's death led to the decline of his family.

Even his original family property was coveted by his clansmen, all of which left him mentally exhausted.

But the current situation gave him the idea of seeking wealth in danger.

Shen Bei had offended so many people; if he could deal with Shen Bei, would Pan Fei and others not look at him with new eyes? As long as he could climb these high branches, would his clansmen still dare to unscrupulously exploit his mother and him?

A cold light flashed in Feng Quan's eyes as he slowly walked out. A person in Heart Decline had no desire to fight. No matter how strong Shen Bei was, he had no fear; this was an excellent opportunity.

"Shen Bei! Your notorious reputation has offended many powerful figures. Even the Night Watchers have been led astray by you, wantonly meddling in affairs they shouldn't. You deserve ten thousand deaths!"

As soon as Feng Quan uttered these words, the other extraordinary individuals felt the same.

They were restless.

This was the true warrior!

However, no one added fuel to the fire, or rallied support, but instead secretly observed the situation.

If Feng Quan could kill Shen Bei, it would naturally be a joyous outcome for everyone.

If he couldn't, with a cannon fodder to scout the way, they could reconsider their plans.

At this moment, Shen Bei, in Heart Decline, felt various discomforts.

Especially the accumulation of suppressed Qi, which made him feel a little breathless.

As someone who had been to a psychology department, he knew that when a person is depressed and uncomfortable, it's important to vent it out.

For example, exercising, finding someone to talk to, and in severe cases, taking antidepressants and actively seeking treatment.

It's especially important not to isolate oneself and overthink, as that can easily lead to problems.

Heart Decline was much more severe than this, and Shen Bei had no good way to deal with it.

But one thing was certain: he couldn't wallow in this depression; he had to divert his attention and vent it out.

His idea was simple: whoever made him uncomfortable, he would make them even more uncomfortable.

So, facing Feng Quan, who wanted to take advantage of the situation, Shen Bei directly attacked. His True Qi erupted with an incomparable ferocity, directly charging towards Feng Quan.

"Still thinking of the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind?"

Shen Bei's face was extremely ferocious: "Little do you know, the oriole is merely seeking its own death!"

Feng Quan reacted quickly, rapidly unleashing his True Qi to defend.

His strength was considerable, so facing Shen Bei's explosive ultimate move was naturally not a problem for him.

He directly shattered it with a backhand strike.

But Feng Quan underestimated Shen Bei's stamina. Shen Bei was not in the precipitous weakening period he imagined.

Shen Bei's True Qi surged forth. Although Feng Quan also moved to block, the immense power caused his blood and Qi to churn, forcing him to retreat dozens of steps before he could stabilize himself.

Shen Bei did not stop, continuing his attack. Unbeknownst to Feng Quan, a long saber was already in his hand, Saber Intent rippling, Sword Qi like a rainbow, sweeping directly towards Feng Quan.

"Chii chii chii!"

Saber Qi whistled, continuous like rain, pouring towards Feng Quan.

Shen Bei did not use the Star Constellation Intermittent Kill at this moment, but the vast saber light was still terrifying.

Facing the continuous Saber Qi, Feng Quan constantly used his Martial Skills, but how could he be Shen Bei's opponent? He was inevitably wounded by the Saber Qi.

"Ah!" Feng Quan couldn't help but scream.

"Still making noise, it's annoying!" Shen Bei only felt the sound was piercing, and his Saber Intent once again rushed towards Feng Quan.

Shen Bei, who had been killing Feng Quan until he was utterly defeated, swallowed his saliva.

Damn it, why is Brother Liu's Heart Decline so different?

When others experience Heart Decline, if someone wants to kill them, they might even directly offer their head. But when it comes to him...

He just said a few more words, and he's already gone berserk and started hitting people.

Everyone was also bewildered; some had also experienced Heart Decline.

Although everyone's experience was a little different, they had never seen someone go berserk like they were on an adrenaline rush just because someone made a sound.

Everyone else's Heart Decline made them listless! How do you seem even more excited!

Everyone was dumbfounded; Feng Quan was completely suppressed.

The further it went, the more he couldn't resist Shen Bei's Saber Intent, and deep, bone-deep saber marks appeared on his body.

Blood stained his clothes, but even so, he didn't dare to make any sound now.

That's right, he suppressed it forcefully.

He even tried to be careful not to make any sound when dodging or stepping on the ground.

Feng Quan wanted to cry!

Damn it, when had fighting someone ever been so frustrating?

Every move had to consider the other party's feelings.

But he didn't dare not to consider it; the Saber Intent was too sharp.

If it weren't for the other party's poor state, he would have been pierced through long ago.

Shen Bei was indeed in a bad state. Even though he was venting with rampant Saber Intent,

his head ached and his heart was clenched, which made him very uncomfortable.

Shen Bei understood why everyone didn't want to move during Heart Decline.

It wasn't just his mood; the most important thing was the physical burden.

He initially had a surge of energy to vent, but halfway through, he felt incredibly uncomfortable and didn't want to move, just wanting to hide somewhere and rest.

This feeling grew stronger and stronger, so strong that his Saber Intent even slowed down.

Many people were watching Shen Bei, and they also noticed this scene.

Just as some people were restless, planning to besiege Shen Bei,

Shen Bei struck with a single saber, and Feng Quan, in a moment of carelessness, was directly split in two without even uttering a scream.

This scene truly intimidated the other extraordinary individuals.

Shen Bei felt his condition getting worse and worse; even killing Feng Quan brought him no pleasure.

He had no desire to stay here. In this state, in an environment where various factions gathered, problems could easily arise. It was best to use the deterrence of dealing with Feng Quan to quickly leave this place.

So Shen Bei said to Bi Tuo, "So annoying, let's go!"
