Everything happened way too quickly.
Even the bystanders were stunned, let alone Chou Wanli and the others who were in the battlefield. A long time later, shock flashed through their eyes.
Looking at the green-robed cultivator standing in the pool of blood, a single word flashed through everyone's minds – decisive to kill!
Chou Wanli's first slash missed – that person did not give him a second chance at all!
"That person's temperament is rather suitable for roaming the ancient battlefield. It's a pity …" A cultivator in the crowd shook his head.
"Given the vengeful nature of the Four Mounted Bandits, Chou Wanli is dead. They'll definitely torture those people to death! Unless they can find a major sect in Xuantian City to rely on. "
"Even though those top sects aren't afraid of the Four Mounted Bandits, no one is willing to offend the Four Mounted Bandits for the sake of those few people. No sect will take them in."
On the long street, Su Zimo turned around with a calm expression and whispered, "Let's leave this place first."
Ji Chengtian and the others nodded.
At that moment, they realized what was going on as well.
In the ancient battlefield and Xuantian City, there was no logic or rules to speak of – this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak!
It was cruel and bloody!
Bloodstains that had yet to dry could be seen everywhere on the streets, as though they were telling of a massacre that happened not long ago.
A battle could break out at any moment and the other cultivators would only watch on with the mentality of watching the show – no one would help out.
If they were to show weakness here, their opponents would only make things worse!
The crowd on the streets dispersed and many cultivators looked at Su Zimo and the others as though they were looking at dead people.
At that moment, the most important thing for Ji Chengtian and the others was to find a place to rest for the night and recover their stamina before recuperating from their injuries.
In Xuantian City, the well-preserved buildings had long been occupied by many factions and cultivators, leaving only a few crumbling buildings.
After walking for a while more, Su Zimo and the others found a dilapidated house at a street corner.
It was not accurate to call it a house.
That was because the surrounding walls of the house had long collapsed and there were only broken walls left. The courtyard was overgrown with weeds and the few houses were dilapidated as well.
"Let's rest here for the night first."
Su Zimo knew that they would not be able to find a good place to stay even if they continued searching. Furthermore, Ji Chengtian, Leng Rou and the others were already exhausted and it was inconvenient for them to move around.
"Bro, you guys rest first. I'll go out and check out Xuantian City," Little Fatty leaned over and whispered.
"Be careful," Su Zimo's eyes,,,,, nodded
After all, Little Fatty had cultivated body tempering techniques and his physique was much stronger than Ji Chengtian, Leng Rou and the rest.
Furthermore, Little Fatty looked chubby and smiled before speaking. He was slick, slick and alert – Su Zimo was not worried about his safety.
His's's's's's be in's in Hell City's
Although Xuantian City could fend off the ancient living beings and beasts outside, it could not stop the greed in the hearts of some cultivators – they were even more savage and terrifying than the demon beasts outside the city!
Ji Chengtian and the others did not want to burden Su Zimo and made use of the time to recuperate and recover their stamina.
Before long, Little Fatty returned.
"Bro, I've found out,"
Little Fatty pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "There are a few top factions in Xuantian City. Glass Palace of the immortal sects, Malevolent Earth Sect of the fiend sects, Puppet Sect of the five heretical doctrines and Elixir Yang Sect and Chigurumon of the four unorthodox groups."
Ji Chengtian and the others frowned with grim expressions.
Immortal sects, fiend sects, unorthodox groups and heretical doctrines – those were the top factions of Tianhuang Mainland!
If they had not ventured deep into the ancient battlefield, they might not have had the chance to interact with those top factions in their entire lives.
Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat.
Glass Palace of the immortal sects, Puppet Sect of the heretical doctrines, Elixir Yang Sect and Chigurumon … he had never come into contact with any of them before. However, he had interacted with the seven fiend sects a few years ago.
Deep underground, Su Zimo encountered a few fiend heirs and managed to kill the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect despite fighting against five of them alone.
To be fair, the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect died an unjust death in that battle.
If not for the fact that the fiend heirs could not unleash their full strength due to the Spirit Lock Formation, the one who died would have been Su Zimo!
After a few years, Malevolent Earth Sect must have chosen a new fiend heir.
Of course, Su Zimo was not worried about being recognized by Malevolent Earth Sect.
In that battle back then, the powerful skeleton's final struggle caused the world to collapse. Later on, according to Demoness Ji, other than the two of them, only the five fiend heirs survived.
In other words, no one from Malevolent Earth Sect had seen him before!
Little Fatty continued, "Among them, the weaker ones are Elixir Yang Sect and Chigurumon. Elixir Yang Sect is the largest elixir refinement sect in Tianhuang Mainland with a deep foundation that can be traced back to the ancient era. Chigurumon is the largest talisman sect and the spirit crane, the most common communication tool in the cultivation world, was created by Chigurumon. "
When they heard about the origins of Elixir Yang Sect and Chigurumon, Su Xiaoning and Leng Rou's eyes lit up.
If they had the chance to join those two sects to cultivate elixir and talisman refinement, they would definitely be able to progress further on their cultivation path!
Ji Chengtian nodded. "Since they're from the heretical doctrines, their forte lies in elixir and talisman refinement. Naturally, they're weaker in terms of combat strength. However, Elixir Refinement Masters and Talisman Refinement Masters will definitely have some experts following them. "
Little Fatty gulped and said slowly with a grim expression, "Apart from those few major factions, there's another faction in Xuantian City that even those top factions are not willing to offend. That is … the Four Mounted Bandits! "
When they heard that, Ji Chengtian and the others' hearts sank.
"Is it related to the dozens of cultivators at the north city gate?" Ji Chengtian asked with a frown.
Little Fatty nodded. "Just Now, the leader of the group of people killed by First is Chou Wanli. He's a capable subordinate of the Four Mounted Bandits."
"What's the background of the Four Mounted Bandits? Why are the immortal and fiend sects not willing to offend them?" Shi Jian asked.
Little Fatty replied, "The strength of the Four Mounted Bandits is definitely not comparable to super sects such as Glass Palace and Malevolent Earth Sect. However, it's said that the Four Mounted Bandits are ferocious and strong. Their subordinates are also a bunch of desperadoes."
"If a bloody battle were to break out, even if super sects such as Glass Palace and Malevolent Earth Sect were to win, they would definitely suffer great losses. Therefore, up till now, the Four Mounted Bandits and the other top factions have been living in harmony. "
When they heard that, Ji Chengtian and the others had terrible expressions and their hearts were in a mess.
Offending such a faction meant that they could be surrounded and killed in Xuantian City at any moment – the danger within the city might be even greater than outside!
Little Fatty said, "First, you can't blame this matter for that. What the Four Mounted Bandits do is murder and plunder. Any cultivator who enters the city through the north gate will have a hard time surviving as long as they aren't strong or have no background. "
"They're a bunch of vicious people with extremely cruel methods who take pleasure in killing. Even if they hand over all the treasures in their storage bags, they won't be able to escape death!"
At that point, Little Fatty sighed softly. "I heard that there are more than a thousand cultivators who have died in the hands of the Four Mounted Bandits in the past month."
A cold glint flashed through Su Zimo's half-closed eyes.
