"I am the one who rules this Black Fog Mountain. If you want to use the roads of this mountain to leave this place, you must pay some taxes! I will keep those treasures and you can leave. If not, then you all will die here."
Zhu Yun laughed loudly. He spew out a set of words as soon as he appeared, as a sign of respect for his profession. After that, he brought people to attack.
He did not even wait to hear Ming Xiao answer, and directly attacked.
"One, two, three, four or five six... There are a total of six Third Stage Spirit Fusion warriors, and the leader is even a Minor Saint?"
Ming Xiao cursed in his heart. He did not expect to encounter such danger during this mission. He only wanted to safely send the caravan filled with treasures to the Gold Mining City. Why does he have to encounter these bandits, not to mention, the bandit leader was actually a Minor Saint?
They were definitely not the bandits' match. Nevertheless, he has no choice but to continue fighting.
In just a few short minutes, a few bloody corpses could be seen scattered on the ground. Ming Xiao and others were heavily injured. And on the other side, among the bandit's group, a Third Stage Spirit Fusion warrior decreased.
Just as Ming Xiao was worried about what will happen next, a human figure suddenly appeared in the distance. He was carrying a long blade in his hand. The surface of the blade was burning with white flame. The blade streaked across the horizon like a meteor cutting through the night sky. It brought along a beautiful and stunning arc at the same time.
The trajectory of the arc, from left to right, covered four of the five Third Stage Spirit Fusion warriors. The tiny line of white fire cut across the neck of all four powerful warriors.
Rustle~
A blade light flashed, and the bodies of the four Third Stage Spirit Fusion warriors died instantly. In fact, even their bodies were not left behind. Under the effect of the white flame that covered their entire bodies, they soon disappeared completely, leaving nothing behind. They were completely devoured by the Universe Essence Flame.
"You...?"
Not to mention others, even Zhu Yun was stunned when he witnessed this scene. The white flame sent a chill running down his spine. He was afraid that he will die the moment he come in contact with that strange white flame.
He looked at Ye Xiao and wanted to say something, but then he was stunned. It is because a blade had stopped in front of him, and this blade was pointed at his throat. If he moved forward even a little bit, that blade would mercilessly pierce through his throat and take away his life.
Beside Zhu Yun, the sound of blood splashing could be heard without an end. It was the sound of his three trusted aides' bodies being cut off.
The sky seemed to have filled with blood as the blade mercilessly killed many of his subordinates one by one. Blood was mercilessly splashed in all directions. Zhu Yun's body was also dyed red under the rain of blood that splashed out of his subordinates' bodies who were standing right beside him just a second ago. His clothes were soon soaked in blood. He subconsciously closed his eyes.
However, when he opened his eyes, he found that the young man in white clothes opposite him was spotless. There was not even a drop of blood on his white clothes.
No one knows why Ye Xiao kept Zhu Yun alive, but no one doubted Ye Xiao's strength. They all understood that Ye Xiao was capable of instantly killing even a Minor Saint like Zhu Yun. This was terrifying.
"This... So strong!"
Ming Xiao stood in a daze on the spot. He looked at the corpses of bandits on the ground. All of them had their heads separated from their bodies. They were all dead. They didn't even have the chance to resist.
This was an absolute suppression, and it was also an absolute subversion of common sense. Because, even if it was a Minor Saint who attacked, this was probably the extent of what he could do, right?
Ye Xiao's blade strike could be said to be stunning. Whether it was timing, strength, or speed, it was perfect. This was not something that could be explained by just the cultivation realm.
.....
In the dark, by the side of the mountain road, Qian Li was looking at this scene in shock. He had been greatly shocked five times in his heart.
It was so neat and clean, so breathtaking!
He never thought Ye Xiao to be capable of doing something like this. Even a Minor Saint did not dare to move at this moment, he was afraid of dying under Ye Xiao's blade.
It could be seen how threatening Ye Xiao's existence was to this Minor Saint.
And Ye Xiao was just a Chaos Spirit Realm warrior like him.
This was a shocking event.
Ye Xiao's appearance and his two strikes had immediately caused the remaining alive bandits to fall into a state of shock.
The only remaining alive bandits at this moment were Zhu Yun and several Second Stage Spirit Fusion warriors.
When they saw that their Sixth Leader, Zhu Yun, had already fallen into Ye Xiao's hands, all the bandits felt despair in their hearts. Like monkeys that had fallen from a tree, they scattered and fled in all directions.
When Ming Xiao saw this, he immediately orders his subordinates, and they hurriedly chased after them.
On the other hand, Zhu Yun, who was standing opposite of Ye Xiao, looked at the blade that was just inches away from him. His eyes were filled with shock and fear. His ferocious bandit aura had disappeared without a trace. His body trembled, as if he was a frightened sheep.
"You…"
"Don't speak nonsense."
Ye Xiao raised a finger and placed it in front of his lips. He made a shushing gesture and said, "From now on, whatever I ask, you answer. If you say something wrong, you will die."
This voice was not cold. It even had a kind of gentle and easy-going feeling. However, in Zhu Yun's ears, it was as if there was a bone-piercing cold wind blowing from the top to the bottom of his feet.
"This… What do you want to know? Just ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
Zhu Yun said with a trembling voice. He stared at the tip of the blade in front of him. He was afraid that Ye Xiao would lose his life if he didn't pay attention to it.
"Very good."
Ye Xiao revealed a faint smile and said, "First of all, tell me about the 'Worms' present on this mountain?"
Upon hearing Ye Xiao speaking the word "Worm", Zhu Yun's heart skipped a beat. Only now did he know that Ye Xiao was especially here for him and the other Worms. Most importantly, Ye Xiao being aware of the existence of Worms was a shocking matter.
Anyway, if Ye Xiao could let him live in exchange for some information, then it would be easy to settle this matter.
Zhu Yun swallowed a mouthful of saliva and slowly said, "Big brother… No, Zhu Long, that bastard, had been staying at the central point of the Black Wolf Mountain all this time. Zhu Long is the true leader of all the bandits on this mountain. Other than him, there are nine leaders in total. I am the sixth leader."
"Except for us leaders who could sit at the top, Zhu Long had been staying in Black Wolf Mountain for a long time. The other brothers couldn't even see his face."
Ye Xiao nodded his head in understanding, then he asked, "Do you know of other groups of worms present anywhere in the Land of Morning Stars."
Zhu Yun swallowed another mouthful of saliva. Then he told Ye Xiao about three groups of Worms he was in contact with. At the same time, he told Ye Xiao that all the Worms in the Land of Morning Stars are being controlled by an unknown existence living in the shadows.
No one had ever seen who he is. He simply orders Great Saint Realm worms directly in their minds the job he wants them to do, and those Great Saints would then order the Worms of lower strength than them.
This was a type of huge network like a net that has covered the entire Land of Morning Stars.
Ye Xiao had already expected this, but he was still shocked. He did not expect there to be yet another existence living in the shadows, controlling these worms.
Then Ye Xiao was reminded of the battle between Heavenly Demons and the Warriors of Morning Stars. He seemed to have realized something and muttered in a low voice that only he could hear.
"Looks like a Heavenly Demon is still alive, leaving in the Land of Morning Stars, hiding from the eyes of this Land!"
