At this moment, not only the leader and the deputy leader of the bandits, but all of their remaining subordinates also joined in attacking Zhao Tian. Waves of attacks came from various directions, sharp weapons glinting under the light of the night sky that had begun to open due to the destruction of the building. Their footsteps shook the cracked ground, forming continuous pressure that sealed all paths of movement. “I could wipe them all out. But if I keep Li Wei and Li Ruyue within a safe line, they will not grow. To awaken their potential, they must experience some pressure,” Zhao Tian thought. In the midst of the encirclement, his mind remained clear, calculating not only his enemies, but also the future of the two people who were not here. At first, Zhao Tian had been ready to eliminate them all to end the chaos in Zuyun Village. That intention had arisen since the first time he saw the devastated condition of the village and the fear embedded in the faces of its residents.

The deputy leader of the bandits immediately attacked Zhao Tian with full force. The muscles in his arms tensed, his veins visibly bulging as internal energy flowed rapidly along the path of his spear. He did not underestimate his opponent even though the one before him was only a teenager who had no Qi at all. His battle instincts, forged over decades, warned him that the figure in front of him could not be judged merely from the surface. So when he slammed his spear down, a violent wind was created, ready to tear Zhao Tian’s body apart. The pressure of the air ripped apart the wooden floor around them, small fragments lifted and spun wildly, forming a vortex that shot straight toward its target. Zhao Tian also did not dare to underestimate his opponent. His gaze narrowed, his feet shifted slightly to adjust his balance. Even though he excelled in physical strength, he still had to struggle against an attack that contained martial skill. Every movement of his opponent carried p

The atmosphere around the hidden headquarters appeared quiet from the outside, but behind the sturdy walls of the building, there was activity that was clearly recorded by a pair of invisible observing eyes.With his special eyes, Zhao Tian could see the number of people inside the building along with their levels of strength.That careful observation helped him map the situation instantly without needing to enter first. The number was astonishing, there were two people at the late-stage Qi General level. Cultivators at such a high level occupied the highest caste in that place.Under their command, there were twelve people at the middle level. Meanwhile, the early level had a larger number, with twenty-five people. This formation was reinforced by a lower defensive line; as for the Qi Guardian stage, from the early level to the late level, there were more than seventy people.Zhao Tian did not expect a bandit group to possess such strength. The reality on the ground showed that their

At the inn, Li Ruyue approached Zhao Tian. The night atmosphere felt quite quiet, leaving cold air that slowly entered the room. “Tian, will this be alright?” she asked in a low tone. Worry was written on her face, thinking about the consequences of the event they had just gone through.“Do you mean this mission, senior?” he replied. Zhao Tian turned his gaze, focusing his attention on his interlocutor calmly.“No, but your condition. I heard from all the teaching teachers in the Sect, it is not good for humans to have a habit of killing. It can make humans bloodthirsty and make them go astray into the demon path,” Li Ruyue emphasized. The orthodox principles instilled since the beginning of cultivation were still a strong hold for her thinking.On the other hand, Li Wei did not comment. He sat beside Zhao Tian, he was more interested in listening to his explanation. His eyes stared straight ahead, trying to understand the teenager's point of view without any intention of interrupting

When he returned to Zuyun Village, although on the surface his face looked very calm, even calmer than a deep lake. There was no trace of panic or fear radiating from him. But not with his heart. His heart was full of a determination that burned hotter than a volcanic eruption. That calmness was only a shield he built to cover his big plan.In his silence, his mind kept wandering along every regret he had ever made when his village was still standing. “In the past, I always cared less about the lives of the residents. Now I will start in the world in a different way to make up for my past mistakes. Besides that, I also need an army to face the beast Quemo,” Zhao Tian's mind was not silent. The look in his eyes sharpened as he stared at the ruins in front of him. He was not only thinking about the safety of the residents. The young man realized that his responsibility was now much more complex. But he was also drawing up a plan to face the God Palace army led by Quemo at this time. Rea

The night wind blew slowly, carrying a pungent smell of blood that pierced the nose and ruined the charm of the starry sky above those hills."Junior Tian, did you do all of this?" asked Li Wei, he was still curious because he did not believe his junior was capable of killing that many people alone. The corpses in that pitiful condition became silent witnesses to the massacre that had just happened. Moreover when remembering that the boy did not have Qi. This sight truly turned his common sense upside down."If not me, who else?" replied Zhao Tian while slightly raising his shoulders. His attitude was so ordinary, contrasting highly with the horror around him. "Now do not space out too much, it is better to use your Qi to burn these disgusting corpses."Both of them shook their heads because they did not know what else to say. Feelings of horror and amazement mixed into one in their chests. So they manipulated their Qi energy into fire, and burned all the corpses scattered on the grou
