"Who exactly are you people?"
The only exposed eyes of the leading armored man were filled with hostility and vigilance.
Qin Yi smiled and said, "I co from the outside world."
"Like them?" The leading armored man pointed at the dead Fang Ran and asked.
"No, they entered to raid, we entered by mistake. Actually, not really a mistake; we also heard there were abundant resources here and wanted to try our luck. But we didn't expect the resources were claid, so our difference is that they would raid while we would not. Additionally, we stopped them."
"Although we both ca from outside, strictly speaking, we are enemies with those people, not allies."
The leading armored man stared intently at Qin Yi, "I can sense that you are strong. But intruders are not allowed. To prove your innocence, you must co with us for investigation."
"How will you investigate?" Qin Yi chuckled, "I can see from your eyes that you're full of hostility towards us. Even if you could investigate us, there would be biases in the results, wouldn't there?"
"I know you hate raiders, but we're truly not bad people."
"Whether you're bad people or not, we'll know after the investigation."
"So how do you intend to investigate?"
"First, co with us."
Qin Yi shrugged, "What if I refuse?"
The leading armored man said nothing, rely gestured, and the weapons of the armored n behind him aid at Qin Yi and his people.
"It seems you intend to take us forcibly?" Qin Yi's expression turned colder.
"If you resist, we will be forced to use strong asures." The leading armored man was quite authoritative.
Qin Yi said indifferently, "Your cultivation is not weak, but how do you know you can certainly take us?"
"It's our duty, even unto death."
Qin Yi smiled bitterly, "It seems we have no choice but to fight? Honestly, you who guard the chasm are worthy of respect, and I don't wish to engage you. But I have sothing very important to do now and really can't go with you."
"In that case, we will have to take you by force." Discover more novels at novᴇlfire
The leading armored man slowly raised his hand, and once it fell, the armored n behind him would charge forward.
However, before he could lower his hand, a sudden urgent horn sounded from the distant ship.
"Capture them and take them back. If they resist, kill without rcy." The leading armored man ordered, then imdiately turned and headed for the ship.
Qin Yi looked at the dozen armored n, "Your cultivation is decent, but you're not our opponents. Don't ask for trouble."
All these n were in the Nascent Soul Realm, but none had reached Nascent Soul Great Perfection. No matter how well-coordinated they were, in the face of overwhelming strength, they would only et defeat.
Nevertheless, these armored n clearly wouldn't listen to advice; they were only following orders.
Whoosh...!
A dozen armored n charged at Qin Yi and his group like a surge of water, brimming with deadly montum.
Swish!
Bai Jingqing and others drew their longswords.
"Don't attack." Qin Yi stopped them.
After speaking, he stomped the ground, and purple light sank into the sand, transforming into dozens of threads of purple light that shuttled underground silently, unnoticed by anyone.
"Brother Qin, aren't you going to act? There's no way to stop them." Mo Wuji tightened his grip on his folding fan; the armored n were now less than ten ters away.
Qin Yi slightly raised the corners of his mouth and pointed at the charging armored n, "Stop."
Mo Wuji and the others widened their eyes, dumbfounded.
Qin Yi's words seed to have magic power; those charging armored n really stopped, as if under an immobilization spell, each one maintaining their forward-charging posture.
"Is this Brother Qin's Petrification Technique?" Mo Wuji quickly understood.
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
Mo Wuji smiled wryly, admiringly saying, "Brother Qin's thods are truly unfathomable."
Qin Yi laughed lightly, this Petrification Technique was sothing he had just acquired, and it seed to be quite effective.
"Everyone, Qin truly doesn't wish to be your enemy and doesn't want to take your lives; I can only trouble you temporarily."
Just as Qin Yi finished speaking, the ground suddenly trembled as if thousands of troops were galloping.
"Another big ship is coming," Bai Jingqing said.
Qin Yi shook his head slightly, looked up at the distant ship, and said in a deep voice, "This ti, I'm afraid it's not a big ship; this doesn't feel like it."
"The horn on the ship just now was very urgent, and the leading armored man left in a hurry, probably encountering so trouble," Mo Wuji said.
"Look quickly," Bai Jingqing exclaid.
Qin Yi and Mo Wuji looked over and saw that people were continuously descending from the ship. In no ti, they had gathered more than two hundred n, forming a line, with the edges obscured by wind and sand, making it impossible to see clearly.
"It looks like they're blocking sothing?" Mo Wuji remarked.
The tremors in the ground grew stronger and stronger.
Qin Yi stepped forward to one of the armored n, flicked his finger lightly, and a stream of purple light sank into the man's brow.
The armored man instantly regained his freedom of movent, swinging his broadsword with fierce saber energy toward Qin Yi.
Qin Yi's palm instantly turned purple and gold, and with two fingers, he caught the blade, the purple light surging and dissipating the saber energy.
"You're not my opponent, don't force to kill you," Qin Yi said coldly.
"I ask you, what happened?"
The other party remained silent.
"You'd better answer my question; I've said, I'm not your enemy. You should understand your current situation; if I wanted to kill you, it would be effortless."
After a long while, the other party finally spoke, "It's a horde of demon beasts."
Qin Yi frowned, "You're saying it's a beast horde?"
"A horde of demon beasts is far scarier than a beast horde," the other responded.
"Brother Qin, look quickly," Mo Wuji exclaid.
Qin Yi turned his head to look and couldn't help but be filled with shock.
A tide of fierce beasts surged forth from the wind and mist, giant wolves the size of small mountains with fur like steel needles bristled, wide mouths, and sharp fangs, instilling fear at first sight. Massive pythons, thicker than a person, with scales glinting with cold tal sheen.
Weasel-like creatures as large as bulls, their two sharp teeth gleaming nacingly, each half a ter long, more terrifying than blades.
Amidst a chaotic dance of demons, like tidal waves, these fierce beasts all shared a trait: their eyes were blood-red, their bodies suffused with black demonic qi, radiating an overwhelming ferocity.
"Stop them, kill them, don't let a single one through."
The leading armored man let out a roar.
The line of armored warriors collided with the demon beast horde and began a frenzied slaughter.
Blood splattered, severed limbs flew.
These armored n were strong, forming a line like a steel barrier, holding back the onslaught of demon beasts.
One by one, the demon beasts fell, their massive bodies piling into mountains of corpses.
However, Qin Yi did not have much faith in these armored n. Their cultivation was formidable, but human strength has its limits; there were too many demon beasts, countless, and they could wear these n down to death by sheer numbers.
