Wild Dogs

After dealing with Long Qing, Sun Wang was smug. He raised his blood-red longsword and walked towards the giant python.

Just then, Lu Jiang looked at Qian Xu standing to the side.

"Hey, Brother Qian, it's time for us to get started."

He then swung his sword forcefully downwards, and moments later the restriction suddenly pressed down.

Thousands of sword lights surged from all directions, while flames rose from below. Boulders rolled and vines grew thickly, all rushing towards Sun Wang.

"You damned bastard, what's going on here?"

Sun Wang turned around and glared venomously outside, only to see Qian Xu and Lu Jiang chuckling to themselves.

"Hmph, so you're allowed to kill Long Qing, but we're not allowed to lay a hand on you?"

"You despicable scoundrel, I'll send you to your grave today."

As they spoke, the two men were filled with righteous indignation, as if they were truly upholding some kind of justice.

But only the two of them knew that they were ultimately after these benefits.

Seeing that he was in a dangerous situation, Sun Wang completely panicked.

"Are you two scoundrels really courting death?"

"Don't you understand? Without me, how could you possibly defeat this Ice Python?"

"Now look what's happened, they actually dare to discard me after I've served my purpose."

"This is my last warning to you: open the barrier immediately, or you'll be in big trouble once I break through it and break out."

Upon hearing this, Qian Xu tensed up, but Lu Jiang, standing to the side, snorted coldly.

"Alright, Sun Wang, stop putting on airs. Do you think you can challenge me with your current strength?"

Lu Jiang then snorted coldly.

"That's enough. If I'm not mistaken, you're at your limit right now. Don't think that those ice spikes hurting you are nothing."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wang's expression changed slightly. He was indeed seriously injured and unable to exert much combat power.

Sun Wang continued to threaten Qian Xu.

"I'm giving you one last chance. Open the barrier immediately."

Upon hearing this, Qian Xu's hand trembled, and he tried to break the restriction, but at that moment, Yang Fan coldly transmitted his voice to him from behind.

"What do you want to do? You'd better use the surrounding restrictions to completely suppress this kid."

Upon hearing this, Qian Xu tensed up and looked at Yang Fan in a panic, unsure of what to do next.

Yang Fan spoke coldly to Qian Xu.

"Don't look back. You and Lu Jiang use the restriction to crush this kid to death. Leave the rest to me."

As Yang Fan spoke, he slowly took a step forward.

Upon hearing this, Qian Xu hurriedly looked at Lu Jiang beside him.

"Let's finish this kid off quickly. If he dares to say another word, we'll kill him."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jiang nodded repeatedly.

"Hey, you're right, we can't give him any chance to live."

The two then acted simultaneously, and the restriction descended instantly. As the restriction pressed down, streams of spiritual energy surged from the surrounding area.

"Damn it, you two beasts, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

Sun Wang was no match for such an attack and was completely defeated in an instant.

After dealing with Sun Wang, Lu Jiang smiled slightly, then immediately drew his sword and stabbed at Qian Xu.

Qian Xu was startled and hurriedly retreated, but Lu Jiang's slash was extremely fast, and it seemed that it would be too late.

Just at this critical moment, a cold shout came from the side.

"stop."

The sound wave struck instantly, and Lu Jiang, who had already thrust out his sword, felt his mind shake and couldn't hold the sword. The long sword clattered to the ground.

Then Yang Fan pounced on Lu Jiang's side at lightning speed and delivered a heavy palm strike to Lu Jiang's back.

With a whoosh, Lu Jiang spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at Yang Fan in disbelief.

"You damned lackey..."

But then the disbelief on his face turned into horror. Only then did he realize that Yang Fan's cultivation had actually reached the mid-stage of Core Formation.

"You...you're not a Foundation Establishment cultivator? You bastard surnamed Qian, so you've been colluding with others all along."

Upon hearing this, Qian Xu tensed up. He looked at Yang Fan fearfully, unsure of what to do.

Yang Fan gave Lu Jiang no chance at all. He rushed up and slapped Lu Jiang on the back several times, killing him instantly.

Lu Jiang was at a lower level than him, and his actual combat strength was weaker, so dealing with him was naturally a piece of cake.

After killing Lu Jiang, Yang Fan gave a wink to someone nearby.

At the same time, Zhou Peng immediately led his men to attack the other cultivators in the vicinity, and soon all the other cultivators in the vicinity were dealt with by Zhou Peng.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Peng went to Yang Fan's side.

"Master, the cleanup is complete. We've taken care of everything."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan nodded.

"Go and loot all the storage bags and valuables from these people."

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Peng immediately nodded and then led the others to rush towards the corpses over there.

After disposing of Lu Jiang's body, Yang Fan stared intently at the Black Horned Ice Python ahead.

Now that the Black Horned Ice Python is dead, all its valuables have become Yang Fan's.

Soon, Zhou Peng stripped the black horn, venom sac, gall bladder, and the python skin off the Black Horned Ice Python.

These are the most valuable parts of the Black Horned Ice Python, and they would certainly fetch a high price if traded.

Qian Xu, standing to the side, looked at these things and immediately felt a surge of envy.

But after glancing at Yang Fan, he stood obediently to the side, not daring to make any rash moves.

Holding the item in his hand, Yang Fan glanced at it, then turned his gaze to Qian Xu beside him.

"So? Do you want it?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Xu couldn't help but swallow hard; he really wanted to get his hands on these things.

But when he thought of Yang Fan's strength, he shook his head repeatedly.

"I wouldn't dare, please just accept these things, sir."

Then, Qian Xu respectfully knelt down and bowed to Yang Fan.

Seeing this, Yang Fan nodded slightly. After accepting the items, he looked at Qian Xu.

Seeing the unfriendly look in Yang Fan's eyes, Qian Xu immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

His storage bag had been searched by Yang Fan before, and there wasn't anything valuable inside.

Now he was completely subdued by Yang Fan, and he couldn't even muster the will to resist.

But his survival instinct made him tremble incessantly.

After a while, Qian Xu kowtowed directly to Yang Fan.

"My lord, I beg you to spare my life. If you spare my life, I am willing to serve you like a slave."

Yang Fan shook his head and sighed.

"Of course I'd like to spare your life, but if you live, it will still cause some trouble."

Hearing this, Qian Xu raised his head in alarm.

"My lord, I am utterly loyal to you, without a single complaint, and without any intention of disloyalty."

"Sir, please give me any orders you may have. I am willing to do anything for you."
