85: Noisy

There was a Martial Artist who looked equally sturdy.

He waved the heavy hammer in his hand and grinned,

"Hehe, let me try too!"

He raised the heavy hammer and used all his strength to smash it towards a nearby giant.

"Drop dead!"

The sturdy man only felt that this hammer blow was like smashing into a hard piece of Ore.

It only made a sound!

The giant only took a slight step back, and its fan-sized palm slapped the sturdy man across the face.

The immense force deformed his face and sent his whole body flying.

Bang!

The sturdy man slammed hard against the wall before falling to the ground.

His heavy hammer had long since slipped from his hands and stuck into the ground.

Seeing this sturdy man spitting blood, with barely more breath leaving than entering,

the other Martial Artists, who were originally just as confident, all admitted defeat and retreated.

One slip and you lose your life; these monsters are not to be trifled with!

The sturdy man, the Iceberg Woman, the one-armed Giant Sword Man, and the White Skirt Woman were at the very front, fighting.

The remaining skinny man hid in the shadows, waiting for an Opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

"Say, is your team just here to freeload?"

The people who had retreated looked at Li Canglan and his group, who remained indifferent, and began cursing loudly.

"We've already fought our way here, and you're still thinking about hiding your strength?"

"Want to reap the rewards without doing the work? Bah!"

Huang Feihu and the others, who had been relying on Li Canglan, were no good at fighting.

But when it came to trash-talking, they were no joke.

In such a critical moment, instead of going up to help, these groups started arguing with each other.

It must be said, it was quite ironic.

Li Canglan's gaze was indifferent.

"Aren't you all also reaping the rewards without doing the work?"

"Or are you saying that you've also contributed?"

If the Giant Sword Man and his group had spoken, Li Canglan would have accepted it.

These people were also hiding in the back; what face did they have?

The person who had previously cursed Li Canglan suddenly turned red in the face.

Refusing to lose face even if he lost the argument, he stiffened his neck and said,

"Stop spouting nonsense here; I was just giving them a chance to show what they can do!"

"I've seen thick-skinned people, but I've never seen anyone as thick-skinned as you."

Li Canglan shook his head with a wry smile,

"Since you think you gave them a chance to show what they can do, then I'd like to see how capable you really are."

Li Canglan could understand people who wanted to reap rewards without working.

But he hated people who acted smug after getting an advantage the most.

When that Martial Artist saw Li Canglan walking towards him, his heart tightened, and he subconsciously retreated.

"You... what do you want to do?"

"Aren't you very capable?"

Li Canglan curled the corner of his lips and, in the blink of an eye, rushed in front of the man.

He grabbed him by the collar and threw him directly into the pile of giants.

"Ah!!! What the f*ck?!"

The man tried to resist, but although he looked big and tall, his strength was more than a notch weaker than Li Canglan's.

After the sensation of flying through the air, he landed on his butt, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

By the time he regained his composure, three giants had already rushed to his side.

The giants looking down at him had foul-smelling drool hanging from their mouths.

As if they would swallow him whole in the next moment.

The terrified Martial Artist first reached out to the side, but didn't grab a weapon.

A Martial Artist without a weapon would have their strength reduced by at least half!

They wouldn't even be able to execute the Martial Skills they had mastered.

He scrambled to his feet in a panic, using every ounce of his strength to try and escape.

However, the next moment, he felt a pain in his ankle.

A giant grabbed his ankle and dragged him directly back.

Soon, the sound of pig-slaughtering screams echoed across the scene.

The Martial Artists hiding in the back looked at Li Canglan with fearful eyes and retreated frantically.

The way they looked at Li Canglan was as if they were looking at a devil who had walked out of the Nine Nether Hell.

Even the Martial Artists who had walked with Li Canglan earlier couldn't help but swallow hard.

"So this lord from the Demon Suppression Division has such a fiery temper?"

"Fortunately, we buttered him up earlier and didn't provoke this lord."

The few of them felt extremely fortunate for their previous actions.

Under their fearful gazes, Li Canglan tapped his toes and charged into the battlefield.

He had already roughly assessed the strength of these people.

Although they posed some threat to him, that was the extent of it.

He didn't know exactly how many giants were ahead.

If Li Canglan were to just keep reaping rewards without working,

and waited until these people died, he might not be able to break through on his own.

It wasn't that he wanted to save these people, but rather for the sake of his own Opportunity.

Clang!

Hearing the suddenly ringing, crisp sound of a sword, the sturdy man who had just punched a giant to death felt a shiver in his heart.

Subconsciously, he thought someone was trying to sneak attack him!

Being in the wild, necessary precautions were indispensable!

His punch, filled with power, unleashed a fierce gust of wind.

However, his punch hit empty air.

Li Canglan had long since swept past his back, and with a blade carrying the force of thunder, slashed at a giant's shoulder.

The sturdy man's expression was slightly awkward, and he sheepishly withdrew his hand.

Then, he was splashed in the face by a pool of blood.

The giant's flesh and blood could not hinder Li Canglan in the slightest.

The severed arm was sent flying.

However, the giant seemed not to feel pain, and its other arm smashed towards Li Canglan.

Li Canglan leaned back, dodging the blow.

A sturdy Martial Artist who had been knocked unconscious by the giant earlier slowly woke up at this moment.

Seeing this scene, he was dumbfounded,

"My goodness, this blade is too awesome, right?"

With another slash, Li Canglan directly severed the giant's head.

Stepping on the fallen giant's body, he killed his way towards the second giant.

"Don't just stand there, hurry up and act!"

Hearing Li Canglan's low shout, the sturdy man with gauntlets grinned,

"Damn it, to think I was underestimated."

With the addition of Li Canglan as a fresh force,

the pressure on the Giant Sword Man and the others was immediately reduced significantly.

The number of giants was also decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Meanwhile, in the cave passage.

"They have already started fighting."

Several figures wearing uniform snow-white outfits were investigating the movements of the battle through special means.

One of them, a middle-aged man with a chrysanthemum embroidery on the chest of his jacket, sneered,

"These people's methods are quite good, to think they could fight their way to the depths of this cave."

Another person, the middle-aged man with the highest status among the group, also laughed and said,

"I recognize that guy holding the giant sword; it's Yang Diao from the Demon Suppression Division."

"He reached the Two-star Middle Stage at a young age and is a resolute member of the resistance faction; there's no need to recruit him."

"Killing him will also reduce the strength of the resistance faction."

"The sturdy man is Wang Guangke, a Counselor at the Hanghai Martial Arts Academy, with strength at the Two-star Late Stage; he hates evil with a passion."

"That Iceberg Woman is named Feng Shanshan. It seems she is a direct descendant of the Feng family in Hang City and is also part of the resistance faction."

Counting them one by one, the man's gaze finally fell on Li Canglan, and he frowned.

"That unfamiliar face, his background is currently unclear."

"Regardless, these people must all die here today!"
