Leader Li also trembled slightly, his palm sweating a bit, but then he felt his anger surge as he realized that he got scared by a mere brat. He shook his head slightly and roared, raising his bow above his head, “Puny tricks! You can’t win against me brat!”
He charged forward alone to show that he wasn’t scared of a mere brat, even though his palms were sweating due to nervousness.
The other criminals looked at each other and also picked up their bows to go and fight Shen Yuan.
The 3 high-level cultivators, The swordsman, the saber wielder, and the bald man didn’t move an inch but took out bows from their inventory, while the bald man screamed, “Attack him together with the leader! We will provide backup from here and shoot him with our bows.”
He raised his bow to show his confidence, while other weaker criminals also got a bit more courage and took out their short-range weapons, swords, spears, sabers, daggers, maces, halberds, etc.
They all rushed towards Shen Yuan, who put Han Ming’s body down on the ground and stood still with a sword in his hand, staring closely at all of the ones who were responsible for the death of his one true friend.
He didn’t speak a word and began rushing towards the criminals on the opposite side of Leader Li, ‘I need to deal with the rest of these lowlifes before going after him, else they will keep interfering with me.’
Leader Li’s eyes widened in anger as he saw Shen Yuan going after his underlings while ignoring him. However, he also heaved a sigh of relief internally, as this proved that Shen Yuan still wasn’t his opponent since he was running from him.
He reached the first man holding a mace, who couldn’t react in time as Shen Yuan closed the distance. The man’s eyes widened in fear as the last thing he saw was a gust of wind before Shen Yuan decapitated him, making the earth spin beneath him.. His head spun in the air while his body dropped where he stood. Ending his worthless life.
He didn’t stop there, continuing toward the next targets. Two men had been running toward him but were now frozen in place, shivering to their core from what they had just witnessed.
Their eyes filled with terror as they saw Shen Yuan come in front of them. He pulled out another sword from his inventory, grabbing it tightly as he dual-wielded both blades, swung them upside down, and cut the both of them in two together with their weapons.
His qi was much more stronger than them now, so it was pretty easy to slice off their weapons, with his kill his eyes color changed slightly, becoming red as his body absorbed the killing aura.
But he didn’t stop and continued killing the criminals as if cutting down the grass, all the whole Leader Li chased after him, but couldn’t catch up with Shen Yuan who was using multiple different movement techniques to evade him as well as chasing after the running bandits.
The bald man and the other two criminals were sweating hard as they saw the massacre happening in front of them. Even after shooting a lot of arrows, none of them hit Shen Yuan.
Because he was running all the time while evading all the attacks, none of their attacks hit him yet. They dropped their bows and got back in their formation to prepare for an attack since Shen Yuan was nearly finished with all the small fish.
Shen Yuan was breathing hard, even tho he finished off everyone it still took a toll on his psyche, he was covered in blood from head to toe, but none of the blood was his own.
He raised his head slightly as his eyes were blood red at this point, he stared straight at the bald man and others, who were standing together with Leader Li and Li Yu.
Leader Li’s face flushed with anger as he couldn’t do anything while Shen Yuan exterminated all of his underlings single-handedly. He trembled slightly as he pointed his broad sword and roared, “I will kill you! You fucking bastard!”
Even though he was screaming loudly, he didn’t take a step forward as he was afraid that he would kill the rest of his underlings.
Even though the remaining underlings were weak, they were still more useful alive than dead. So he could only remain in the same place and wait for him to attack, while the others didn’t have the courage to move towards Shen Yuan on his own.
Even Li Yu’s face was pale from fear, shivering slightly as felt her knees weaken from fear and regret, she grimaced as she thought, ‘If I knew he was this powerful I wouldn’t have betrayed him and stayed by his side instead, I-‘ she couldn’t even think straight under the pressure of Shen Yuan’s cold gaze.
Shen Yuan continued staring closely at the bunch of people with his red eyes, his eyes completely red as his mind was empty, the only thought in his mind was to finish off the people who killed Han Ming.
He slowly started walking towards Leader Li, since he was in front of all the others, it would be pretty hard to finish them off before his interference. So he decided to fight head-on.
Leader Li’s muscles tensed as he focused intently on Shen Yuan, watching his every movement for a flaw to exploit. He gripped his broadsword tightly as Shen Yuan came within 100 meters of him.
Shen Yuan stomped his foot on the ground and jumped towards Leader Li with his Dual Swords, Leader Li’s eyes widened as he swung his broad sword down with full force. Trying to cut Shen Yuan in two with sheer strength.
But Shen Yuan cleverly used the Flowing Water Sword Technique with one of his swords to change the direction of the sword and struck the neck of Leader Li.
