Chapter 198: Chapter 198
Mu Shan trembled with rage, humiliated in public by a group of juniors, his face utterly discredited, bursting with shame and anger, but powerless to do anything about it. He could only retreat obediently; otherwise, he would face certain death.
"Hmph, all this trouble is your damn fault, and now you've even implicated Miss Cailian. You better pray for good fortune."
When he retreated to Zhao Letian's side, Mu Shan snorted coldly, giving Zhao Letian a venomous glance. In his eyes, all of this was caused by Zhao Letian, who should not have talked back to those powerful young cultivators. Now Zhao Letian was certainly doomed, and Miss Cailian would be unlucky too.
Zhao Letian's face was expressionless, completely ignoring Mu Shan, regarding him as good as dead.
"Alright, the nuisance has gone. Boy, make your move. Don't say I didn't give you a chance; I'll let you strike first. Otherwise, you won't even have the chance to fight back later."
The youth at the peak of the True Martial Fourth Realm looked at Zhao Letian with a disdainful smile.
Without another word, Zhao Letian transformed into a blurry afterimage, rushing forward. With one punch landed, the youth's head at the peak of the True Martial Fourth Realm burst apart like a watermelon, brain and blood splattering everywhere, the scene extremely gruesome.
The instant the youth reached for his curved blade, he had a murderous intention towards him, and naturally, Zhao Letian would show no mercy.
The place instantly fell silent, everyone staring gobsmacked at Zhao Letian. This young man was too fierce, using merely his physical strength to instantly kill a person at the peak of the True Martial Fourth Realm. His power was nothing short of terrifying.
Especially Ji Manli, splattered with blood on her face, once again showed a look of terror in her beautiful eyes.
"Kill! Kill him for me; all of you, together."
Ji Manli screamed frantically, Zhao Letian was too frightening, making her feel the threat of death.
The other Middle Stage True Martial Realm youths, shocked for a moment, then gritted their teeth and attacked together, each drawing their Spiritual Artifacts.
In their eyes, no matter how strong Zhao Letian was, he couldn't possibly have the combat power of the High-level True Martial Realm. With so many of them from the Middle Stage True Martial Realm joining forces, they would surely be able to kill Zhao Letian.
"Zilong, be careful."
Cailian was slightly startled, worry apparent in her eyes.
She knew that Zhao Letian was actually only at the fourth level of the True Martial Realm, his physical strength just exceptionally formidable. Facing the joint attack of so many from the Middle Stage True Martial Realm, he would definitely be in grave danger.
"Don't worry, they're just a bunch of small fry."
Zhao Letian smiled indifferently and unconcernedly said, producing a Spiritual Weapon Longsword, his figure flickered like a ghost as he rushed forward.
Even a dragon swimming in shallow waters shouldn't be underestimated by shrimps and minnows. Although he had not fully recovered, dealing with these people, none higher than the fifth level of the True Martial Realm, was not a problem at all.
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!..."
Then, wherever the sword light passed, blood splattered, and the bodies of those Middle Stage True Martial Realm youths fell one after the other into pools of blood.
In just a moment, all those surrounding Zhao Letian had fallen, none spared, leaving only Zhao Letian, holding a longsword, standing loftily amid the bloodstained ground, like a god of slaughter.
"Oh my god, they're all dead, too terrifying."
"This person is but at the fourth level of the True Martial Realm, yet he slaughters those at the fourth and fifth levels as easily as slaughtering chickens. Such astonishing talent, such terrifying strength."
The onlookers were shocked and discussed among themselves. They had never seen a genius with talent and strength comparable to Zhao Letian throughout the entire Holy River region.
However, what these people didn't know was that in front of them, this young man had once on the battlefield of the border between the two countries, in front of an army of a million from both sides, powerfully beheaded the strongest genius of the largest tribe of the Gray Wolf Kingdom. These small fries were simply not worth mentioning.
Cailian was also shocked; Zhao Letian's strength was far more terrifying than she had anticipated.
As for Ji Manli, she was currently so frightened that her face was bloodless, her complexion deathly pale as her body trembled uncontrollably. Her cultivation level was the same as Cailian's, only at the True Martial Second Realm. If Zhao Letian wanted to kill her, she would have no ability to resist whatsoever.
"Cailian, is this woman's background very powerful?"
Zhao Letian did not rush to act but instead asked Cailian.
He wasn't afraid of Ji Manli's background; it's just that the Baihua Tribe was currently facing great enemies, and he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble for the Baihua Tribe.
"Mm, she comes from a mid-tier tribe, much stronger than our Baihua Tribe."
Cailian slightly furrowed her eyebrows and nodded.
"Yes! Yes! I, this young lady, am a daughter of a mid-tier tribe. You can't lay a hand on me; otherwise, my father will surely send troops against the Baihua Tribe and kill you all." My Virtual Library Empire (*) thanks you for reading at the source.
As if she had found a lifesaving straw, Ji Manli's eyes lit up, and her face showed a complacent and fearless expression as she continued to speak.
"A mid-tier tribe? Not worth considering."
Very unexpectedly, Zhao Letian pondered for a moment, his eyes revealing an unconcerned expression, as he suddenly released a sword beam from the longsword in his hand, swiftly striking at the throat, sweeping past the delicate neck of Ji Manli, and a fresh red blood line immediately appeared.
The next moment, Ji Manli clutched her neck, her beautiful eyes filled with terror, and she fell into a pool of blood.
"Such a pity, a stunning beauty, gone just like that."
"This guy really doesn't understand pity towards the fairer sex. If it were me, I would have taken her back to enjoy thoroughly before dealing with her."
The surrounding crowd sighed one after another.
However, in Zhao Letian's eyes, enemies were regardless of gender; those who wanted him dead, even if they were peerless beauties, he would not hesitate to kill.
After killing Ji Manli, Zhao Letian waved his hand and collected all the items on these peoples' corpses.
Meanwhile, not far away, Mu Shan was already stupefied, his eyes full of incredulous horror. He once provoked Zhao Letian, humiliated Zhao Letian, and did not take Zhao Letian seriously. Looking at it now, he was simply courting death.
"What did you say I was before? Say it again for me to hear."
Holding his longsword, Zhao Letian stepped through the pool of blood, walking toward Mu Shan. Just a moment ago, this person had insulted him as an illegitimate child, and that had already sentenced him to death.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I didn't know your excellency was so powerful."
Mu Shan was trembling all over with fear. So many more powerful Middle Stage True Martial youths had been casually slaughtered by Zhao Letian; he, merely an Initial Stage True Martial, was even less likely to be an opponent.
"Misunderstanding? So, you mean to say if I wasn't stronger than you, then you could have humiliated me as you pleased? A spineless wretch who bullies the weak and fears the strong, what use is there in keeping you."
Zhao Letian's figure flashed, passing by Mu Shan in an instant and arrived in front of Mu Yuzhu.
"Go back and tell your father to watch yourselves, or else Mu Shan will be your example."
Zhao Letian gazed into Mu Yuzhu's eyes, his voice like a demonic incantation pouring into her mind, and as his words fell, Mu Shan's body happened to collapse into the pool of blood.
