"Is this girl an idiot?" Xu Shan wondered, glancing at Xinren next to him.
He wasn't hiding his aura. And he wasn't hiding his Star Mark either. Despite that, these people were acting like that before him? This made him somewhat confused.
He didn't realize that the people before him were too weak to even sense his aura, that was like a terrifying torrent wrapped around him.
Moreover, since he was somewhat restricted by the Heavenly Laws of the Lower Realm, his aura was further restricted. Only a few powerful people in the Lower Realm could actually sense his Celestial Aura, at least until he didn't actively use his strength to fight.
"Did he call me an idiot?" The girl's face turned red in embarrassment. She couldn't believe that even a pathetic man was calling her an idiot.
"Little Brat, it's good to be confident but too much confidence can get you killed," Duan Yang finally chimed in.
Xu Shan was much younger than him so that also made him feel that the man before him couldn't be a threat.
Xu Shan shook his head lightly. These people were too ignorant.
He reached out his hand toward the Herb to pick it up.
Seeing him being ignored, Duan Yang's face also twitched.
"You thief, trying to take what is ours!"
The girl noticed Duan Yang's expressions. To get even more of his favor, she took action, dashing ahead.
Her fists clenched tightly as she appeared next to Xu Shan, punching with all her strength.
She didn't hold back her strength either, as if she didn't want to leave him alive either.
Duan Yang laughed, knowing that it was over for the man who didn't know his place.
Even Duan Mu monetarily closed his eyes. He still couldn't believe that the woman was so vicious. She could've just stopped the man, but she was actually trying to kill him without giving him any chance.
The youngsters behind Duan Yang also laughed. However, their laughter didn't last for long.
Suddenly, there was complete silence... as if the world was shrouded in a layer of silence.
Duan Mu also found the silence strange. He opened his eyes, only to first see Duan Yang and his followers, all of whom were stunned.
He slowly turned in the other direction where Xu Shan had finally plucked the herb. However, what shocked Duan Mu the most was the woman.
She was standing still as if she was a statue. Her clothes were completely covered in blood. Thin red lines spread all across her body.
Even at the moment, her eyes were trembling. She couldn't even speak anything as her lifeless body dropped to the ground with a thud.
Xu Shan kept the herb in his storage ring, before finally glancing at the lady behind him.
The Woman couldn't feel Xu Shan's aura since she was so weak. However, as she got close to him, she realized that something was wrong.
Before her fist could even touch Xu Shan, her body froze. It was as if there was a mysterious force which restricted her, making her unable to even touch Xu Shan.
Not only could she not move forward, but she also couldn't fly back. She could only watch the torrent of aura rip her body apart slowly.
Even as she dropped to the ground, her eyes remained open, as if asking for help from the others. Unfortunately, no one moved.
With how easily Xu Shan killed her, it was clear to everyone that they were wrong about him. The man's strength... Was beyond their imagination. He killed people without even moving! That was something that only the Patriarch of the Duan Clan or people stronger than him could do!
"I-i..." Duan Yang momentarily froze. However, he glanced at his followers. He thought of something. He had to escape. However, for that, he had to create a distraction!
He sent a mental transmission to his followers, 'This guy must've used some treasure! Treasures like that can't be used repeatedly! He must've been exhausted! Or else he would've killed us all!'
'If we can take his treasure, we'll be richer than the Royal Family! On the count of three, we will all attack him!'
He gave his instructions to his followers.
Fortunately for him, his followers fell for his trick.
As soon as Duan Yang finished his count, his followers rushed toward Xu Shan.
On the other hand, Duan Yang also started running. However, the direction he was running was different from others! He was running away from Xu Shan at his maximum speed.
By the time his followers realized that they were fooled and used like distraction, it was too late. They only saw a blinding light flash before their eyes. The next moment, their heads rolled on the ground.
Duan Yang could feel his heart thumping in fear. At any cost, he wanted to get out of this place. He didn't want to die.
However, it didn't take long before his feet froze as he found the young man standing before him.
He could only see the Star Mark shining brightly in Xu Shan's eyes. Duan Yang couldn't help but feel as if he was caught by a Demon!
The next moment, his neck was grabbed by Xu Shan.
"Why doesn't this world allow me to be at peace?" Xu Shan asked, shaking his head lightly. "Why is it that annoying flies like you never know their place?"
"W-what do you want?! I can give you anything! I can find you as much money as you want! My clan is rich! We can give you anything you want! Just let me live! I promise I won't look for revenge! I'll be absolutely loyal to you!"
Duan Mu struggled in Xu Shan's hands. Moreover, it was only now that he was so close to Xu Shan that he finally saw that Star Mark clearly!
From the first glance, it looked like it was a One Star Celestial Spirit! However, when he looked carefully, he could see millions of Stars inside that one star, which made him even more scared!
"A promise? Aren't they made just to be broken? Also, I'm afraid there's nothing you or your clan can offer me." Xu Shan stated, as he walked back to the same place where they had met, while still holding Duan Ming by his throat.
"Since you want the herb, you can wait there for it to grow again.'
Duan Yang's face was pale as Xu Shan tightened his grip.
He crushed his throat, and tossed the body of the young man right to the place where the herb used to be.
"And that leaves one..." Xu Shan turned to Duan Mu who hadn't moved an inch.
