"I really can’t let you live!"
After a round of attacks that failed to harm Chen Yang in the slightest, the man in black was startled once again.
So young yet with strength comparable to his; if given ti to grow, who could possibly contain him?
With that in mind, the man in black’s killing intent intensified.
The surrounding black evil aura raged and rolled, filling the entire second-floor hall, accompanied by a strong scent of blood.
The entire scene began to turn eerie.
Simultaneously, his strikes grew heavier, and he launched his cultivation technique attack.
Black energy gathered in his hand, instantly forming a blood bead, black with a hint of red.
Then he fiercely hurled it at Chen Yang.
The blood bead’s offensive, in fact, was quite similar to the Gathering Spirit Seal.
But fundantally, the Gathering Spirit Seal was still a bit stronger, as it was a high-level cultivation technique of the mysterious grade.
"Die!"
The man in black used all his strength.
Chen Yang faced it calmly.
With each move, he easily deflected the man in black’s various attacks.
"It’s my turn now."
After neutralizing all the blood beads, Chen Yang imdiately seized the opportunity to counterattack.
In an instant, countless sword moves converged in the air, eventually forming an extrely powerful sword Qi.
"Triple Slash Sword Technique, the second slash!"
With a roar, his sword Qi pounced ferociously at the man in black.
Whoosh!!
"You..."
The man in black was taken aback, never expecting that the young man before him had hidden strength.
The earlier strike wasn’t Chen Yang’s true power!
But by the ti he sensed the change, it was too late.
The fierce sword Qi flashed by, and his voice abruptly stopped.
With eyes wide open, only a look of terror remained, and a line of blood slowly appeared on his neck.
There was a sudden crash, and his body collapsed violently. The eerie spiritual energy in the room dissipated in an instant.
Everything returned to normal.
"Vice... Vice Hall Master!" Yi Dingxiang, trembling in the corner of the hall, imdiately went to assess the situation as the black mist dispersed.
But as he saw the fallen person was the Blood Bat Hall’s Vice Hall Master, he was both shocked and afraid!
Shocked that Chen Yang could defeat the Blood Bat Hall’s Vice Hall Master!
Afraid because he made the wrong decision. With the Vice Hall Master dead, how could the young man before him let him off?
Thinking of this, he was imdiately ashen-faced, collapsing to the ground helplessly.
Though an ordinary person, he understood much about the cultivation world.
He knew that today, he wouldn’t escape disaster.
"Chen Yang!"
He Xiran finally reacted at this mont.
Unseen before, she was very worried about Chen Yang; now seeing that he was fine, her anxious heart finally settled.
"More people are gathering downstairs; we can’t stay here long." But having dealt with the Blood Bat Hall’s Vice Hall Master, Chen Yang wasn’t completely at ease.
Because he sensed that more Blood Bat Hall people were gathering downstairs, and who knows what trouble might co soon.
They both needed to escape quickly.
"Then let’s leave quickly." He Xiran imdiately responded, pulling open the villa’s floor-to-ceiling window intending to leave from the second floor.
"Wait, there’s still soone here we haven’t dealt with." Chen Yang’s sharp gaze fell on Yi Dingxiang in the corner.
Following Chen Yang’s gaze, He Xiran noticed him too.
Her face changed, showing hatred and anger.
For soone so ungrateful, He Xiran had no goodwill or understanding.
"Don’t kill , I’ll give you all these resources. As long as you don’t kill , I can also compensate you with ten billion. Is that okay?" Yi Dingxiang, prepared for death, was still fearful when facing it.
Trembling, he tried to barter his life with his possessions.
But for such a person, neither Chen Yang nor He Xiran had a reason to trust him.
"You should take your assets down and explain to the forr Alliance Hierarch." Chen Yang picked up a small pebble from the ground and flicked it, ending Yi Dingxiang’s life.
"Let’s go."
Then the two quickly leaped from the villa’s second floor and left the area.
For experts in the Spirit Gathering Realm wanting to leave, those in the Qi Refinent Realm couldn’t perceive it.
So it didn’t matter how many people in the Qi Cultivation Realm ca downstairs; it was useless.
They simply didn’t know what happened upstairs; no one dared to check.
Only when the Blood Bat Hall Master arrived did everyone rush to the second floor.
Upstairs, only a few cold bodies remained.
As for Chen Yang and He Xiran, they were long gone!
"A skilled expert has indeed appeared in the Vengeance Alliance! Investigate thoroughly imdiately."
The villa’s second floor was silent for a long ti, then a voice echoed that sent chills down everyone’s spine.
...
Elsewhere.
Having left the villa, Chen Yang and He Xiran had long left the provincial city, driving back towards Fuling Village.
On their way back, the two remained silent.
Chen Yang didn’t overthink, but He Xiran’s mood was heavy.
They had gone to the provincial city for resources, but now they returned with nothing, having barely escaped potential danger.
"Chen Yang, how should we explain this to Uncle Qiu...?" After a long silence, He Xiran suddenly turned to Chen Yang, who was driving.
Chen Yang smiled easily and said, "We’ll tell the truth, of course. Yi Dingxiang betrayed us, and that’s sothing we couldn’t control."
"Forcing those resources out would only bring trouble."
He Xiran’s expression was complex. "But our alliance’s future developnt relies on those resources."
Hearing this, Chen Yang paused, then at a highway exit, he changed direction, no longer heading towards Fuling Village.
"There’s no way to get those resources. But if we need so, I can take you sowhere else to get them." Chen Yang said with a light smile.
"Sowhere else?" He Xiran was puzzled.
"Yes, take." Chen Yang nodded with a smile and then, without further explanation, drove He Xiran to the Gu Family’s coal mine he had discovered earlier.
This place seed like a regular coal mine on the surface, but they were secretly excavating Spirit Stones, though the yield was sowhat low.
Before discovering the Spirit Stone mine in Fuling Village, he would often co by to secretly dig so up.
But later, no longer short of cultivation resources, he stopped coming.
Given the current situation, he brought He Xiran along again.
Hiding the car on the mountain, Chen Yang explained the situation below to He Xiran.
Only then did He Xiran understand what Chen Yang ant by "take" earlier.
"The Gu Family, our alliance has no connection with them, isn’t this wrong?" He Xiran felt a bit embarrassed.
Chen Yang, however, didn’t mind.
"Your alliance might not, but they have a grudge with . Take it; why wouldn’t I?"
Hearing this made sense to He Xiran too.
"Now that you ntion it, my guilt suddenly lessened a lot; it does seem right." He Xiran laughed.
"Of course it does. Besides, those Gu Family people aren’t any good. Just take it, don’t hold back." Chen Yang laughed, then quickly led He Xiran down the mountain into the coal mine, navigating familiarly to the underground excavation site to start digging.
The two excavated throughout the night, only stopping reluctantly when dawn approached.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, they would have continued otherwise.
The harvest was imnsely rich.
Whether due to luck or sothing else, every few minutes they made a find, and at most ten minutes produced a Spirit Stone.
Throughout the night, they retrieved over eighty Spirit Stones.
The amount was substantial, quite the bountiful harvest.
Having collected the Spirit Stones, Chen Yang then took He Xiran back to Fuling Village.
Back in the village, they headed straight into a hotel.
Chen Tianmin and Qiu Hongguang had been waiting for a long ti inside.
Though they trusted Yi Dingxiang greatly, Chen Yang and He Xiran had taken significant risk on this trip.
Saying they were unconcerned was simply impossible.
Seeing Chen Yang and He Xiran return, they finally relaxed their worried hearts.
