"Someone's there,"
Long Chen was startled. The cold arrow silently grazed Long Chen's neck, and he could still smell the pungent scent of medicine in the air.
Those cold arrows were highly poisonous; if hit, they could be killed instantly.
Long Chen's gaze instantly turned cold. There were people nearby watching the battle, and his gaze shifted in one direction.
On the distant high mountain, hundreds of figures suddenly moved. Some wore camouflage-like clothes, others wore clothes with rock patterns, and even their faces and hands bore identical patterns.
When they approach rocks and vegetation, even if you look closely, it's hard to find their location—they're all hidden experts.
Moreover, something had been painted on their bodies, yet their auras had merged with the presence here. Long Chen was drawn by the two Immortal King-level giant beasts and couldn't find any trace of them.
As soon as these people appeared, there were actually hundreds of them. They held crossbows and aimed at Long Chen, and at that moment, Bai Shishi and the others also walked over, coldly staring at this group of savages.
Among these people, half were Divine Lord Realm experts, while the rest were at the peak of the Four Extremes Realm. Unexpectedly, upon entering the Evil Dragon Domain, they encountered such a group of powerful opponents.
"Kid, where did you get from? We discovered these two magical beasts. Hand over your weapons and you can get lost." Leading
them was a burly middle-aged man. He looked at the bone knife in Long Chen's hand, greed flashing in his eyes.
"You found out?" Heh, interesting. Looks like you're being unreasonable? Long Chen slowly withdrew the bone blade from the python's head.
"Where did this rookie come from, actually trying to reason with our Qinglong Gang? That girl is really something. Why don't we take her down and present it to the leader? The leader will definitely give us a great reward. A Divine Lord realm expert looked at Bai Shishi, almost drooling.
Faced with their provocation, Bai Shishi surprisingly didn't get angry. Instead, she smiled slightly, her beautiful smile blooming, instantly leaving the group stunned.
"Being unreasonable is best. I just don't like reasoning either, so you were the one who fired the sneak attack just now, wasn't it?" Long Chen pointed the bone knife at the speaker and said.
"That's right, it's ...."
"Pfft."
The man's face still wore an arrogant expression, but before he could finish, the bone knife pierced his chest.
The bone knife in Long Chen's hand suddenly extended forward, piercing through a hundred zhang of the man.
It turned out that the bone knife in Long Chen's hand was already several hundred zhang long. After shrinking it with runes, Long Chen could freely control the size and length of the bone blade.
However, the bone blade was too large for him to hold. The length changed but had no effect. Instead, the blade unexpectedly lengthened and pierced through the man. Even Bai Shishi and the others had never seen this move.
"As long as it's you, I'm afraid I'll kill the wrong person."
"Pfft."
The bone knife trembled slightly, and the man's body shattered instantly, blood splattering all over the person beside him.
The burly man leading them was both shocked and furious. Seeing Long Chen and the others dressed neatly, he assumed they were some reckless wealthy disciples seeking novelty and had come to the Evil Dragon Domain for adventure.
You have to know, the Evil Dragon Domain is extremely famous, attracting a large number of prodigies every year to come and adventure here.
Many prodigies aren't here to pick rare herbs, but to make a name for themselves. Most of the prodigies around take pride in having mingled in the Evil Dragon Domain.
If they could bring out some powerful magical beast corpses, it would be even more material to brag about. Every year, some fearless idiots enter the Evil Dragon Domain and lose their lives for nothing.
However, only a few of these self-righteous prodigies died at the hands of magical beasts; most still died at the hands of humans.
Because the Evil Dragon Domain is a dangerous and chaotic place, with numerous gangs fighting each other, and unimaginably dark worlds often occur.
This is a dark world, completely different from the peaceful world outside. Many of the people gathered here are traitors from major sects—either hunted by enemies with nowhere else to turn, or mentally brutal and murderous.
In short, the Evil Dragon Domain is a place without natural justice, without royal law, without regard for humanity.
So, killing and looting here is as common as eating and drinking water. Originally, this group had their eyes on that giant leopard.
They set traps and prepared for over a month. Just as they were about to act, the earth-attribute python suddenly emerged from underground and attacked the giant leopard. In the end, the leopard was poisoned and barely alive, but Long Chen killed the giant python with a single strike. If they didn't come out to take advantage now, it wouldn't be them.
Seeing Long Chen and the others' attire, they thought they were a flock of fat sheep, but unexpectedly, Long Chen was even more brazen than them, directly killing someone.
"Kill them!" The burly man leading them roared angrily.
"Qi Yu, Zi Xiong, kill them all!" With a wave of Long Chen's hand, Qi Yu and Xu Zixiong immediately struck, attacking those powerful figures.
"What about us?"
Bai Xiaole was about to make a move but was momentarily stunned. Long Chen only let Qi Yu and Xu Zixiong intervene, not him.
"Of course we watched. These people are here to practice with the two of them." Qin Feng shrugged, a bit helpless.
"Puff, puff, puff... Qi
Yu drew his sword, his figure like a raging wind. With one strike, more than a dozen people were cut in two at once.
Xu Zixiong followed behind Qi Yu, and the two of them slaughtered wildly, like tigers among sheep. Those men held crossbows, originally meant to scare Long Chen and the others, thinking they would be so frightened they would kneel and beg for mercy.
But when Qi Yu and Xu Zixiong charged into the crowd, they didn't dare fire their crossbow bolts at all. At such close range, it was easy to injure their own people. In just that moment of hesitation, a large number of strong fighters were slain by the two of them.
"Fight them in a battle of weapons..."
The leader's face changed dramatically. As soon as Qi Yu and Xu Zixiong made their move, he immediately sensed trouble. Although both were early Four Extremes Realm experts, their combat power was terrifying.
"Boom!"
The leading expert clashed head-on with Qi Yu, his weapon blasted away, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, unable even to block a single move from Qi Yu.
It should be noted that the leader was a late-stage Divine Lord Realm expert. As soon as he spat out a mouthful of blood, the other experts' expressions changed.
They saw Long Chen, Bai Shishi, Bai Xiaole, and Qin Feng all standing there quietly, watching quietly, and suddenly understood that they had provoked the wrong people today.
"Escape"
was the fastest thought that flashed through their minds. Almost a hundred people died at the very first contact. This was not a battle at all, but a massacre—a one-sided slaughter.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... Seeing
that even their leader couldn't win them over, they didn't hesitate and immediately scattered and fled.
As they fled, Qi Yu and Xu Zixiong were stunned. With so many people scattered and fleeing, they simply couldn't catch up.
The funniest part was that the leader clashed head-on with Qi Yu, using Qi Yu's strength to retreat, but in reality, he was the first to escape.
But as he kept running, he realized something was wrong. While he was running forward, he was retreating. Looking back, he had already stepped back to Long Chen's side.
Long Chen grinned and immediately slapped him with deep affection, knocking him down:
"You shameless bastard."
