"Seeking Dragon!"

Lin Bai's eyes flickered, and an overwhelming Sword Intention surged from within him.

Instantly, a crescent-moon-like sword light flashed from Lin Bai's hands. In a matter of moments, everything within a five-hundred-meter radius was leveled by this sword strike.

Mountains split, forests shattered.

Under this sword's might, a dozen approaching members of the Demon Clan exploded. Demon Blood was subtly absorbed by the devouring sword, refined, and infused into Lin Bai's Dantian, transforming into Spiritual Power.

"Oh my heavens."

From afar, Zhang Lingkong stood dumbfounded, witnessing the power of this sword, and exclaimed, "The power of this sword has probably surpassed that of a higher-grade King Skill Level, killing a dozen Demon Clan members in one stroke!"

Zhang Lingkong was shocked, eyes wide open.

At this moment, Zhang Lingkong recalled Zhu Jingyi's words back in Tide City, that Lin Bai was very capable.

Now, Zhang Lingkong believed Zhu Jingyi's words were true!

After the sword stroke fell, Lin Bai glanced around, finding the ground littered with Demon Clan corpses, and no breathing souls in sight!

"Let's go. It's not safe here anymore."

"I wonder if Captain Chen Hu and Senior Brother Liang Qian managed to escape!"

Lin Bai sheathed his sword and turned towards Zhang Lingkong.

Zhang Lingkong chuckled, "Lin Bai, that sword of yours just now, was truly formidable..."

"Ah!"

Suddenly, beneath Zhang Lingkong, two hands stretched out from the ground, grabbing his legs and pulling him down fiercely. Zhang Lingkong's plump body was abruptly dragged underground.

"Lin Bai!"

Zhang Lingkong shouted anxiously.

"Hmm?" Lin Bai was surprised.

Immediately, his Demonic Sword flashed, thrusting towards the ground below.

But Lin Bai was a step too late, as Zhang Lingkong vanished, dragged beneath the earth.

At that moment, a strange laugh echoed, "Heh heh, even if I can't catch you, I'll take this Fatty then!"

"Little ones of the Human Clan, I will come for you!"

The voice drifted away, seemingly leaving the forest.

"This voice is Chi Wei's..." Lin Bai's face twitched upon hearing the voice.

Therefore, Lin Bai tossed an Earth Mystery Elixir from his Storage Bag into his mouth. As soon as it entered, he transformed into a stream of light and vanished into the forest.

...

In this part of the forest.

Xuan Qing rode a Giant Elephant, and at this moment, had five Warriors tied up with iron chains at the elephant's tail. These five people were none other than Chen Hu, Liang Qian, Litian Ying, Kong Qi, and Gao Yunhua.

Earlier, Chen Hu and the others had attempted to escape, only to be captured and returned.

Xuan Qing asked, "Is there anyone else who hasn't come back?"

Uncle Yuan glanced around and said, "Chi Wei hasn't returned yet!"

Xuan Qing paused, disdainfully saying, "Chi Wei went after those two Warriors at the Third and Second Levels of the Life-and-Death Realm? What a useless one, as a Demon Clan member of the Fourth Level of the Life-and-Death Realm, he still struggles to catch those two small fry!"

"Let's go and take a look!"

Immediately, Xuan Qing urged the Giant Elephant forward, towards Lin Bai's escape route.

Soon, Xuan Qing led over a hundred Demon Clan members to the site of Lin Bai and Chi Wei's great battle.

"This is..."

Xuan Qing arrived and saw the area flattened within a five-hundred-meter radius, his face changed too.

Uncle Yuan stepped out, glanced once, and squinted his eyes immediately, "What formidable Sword Skill!"

Xuan Qing coldly said, "Indeed formidable, this entire area was flattened by a single stroke of the sword. This Sword Skill must be at least a King Skill Level."

At that moment, from the distant ground, a young man covered in spikes emerged rapidly, standing before Xuan Qing and tossing Zhang Lingkong to the ground in front of him.

"Young master!"

Chi Wei exclaimed excitedly.

Xuan Qing coldly inquired, "Chi Wei, what's going on?"

Chi Wei replied, "Young master, we chased those two, but only managed to capture one. The other one escaped!"

Xuan Qing sneered, "Escaped? More like you fled!"

Chi Wei paused, awkwardly chuckling, "Young master, his Sword Skill was indeed fearsome, killing over ten of our Demon Clan on his own. I'm really no match for him!"

Xuan Qing's eyes gleamed with interest, "Intriguing, such a mere Second Level Life-and-Death Realm Warrior managed to kill so many of my Demon Clan powerhouses!"

"Bring these people up here, I have questions for them."

Xuan Qing said, smiling.

Instantly, Uncle Yuan untied Chen Hu and the others from the Giant Elephant, placing them beside Zhang Lingkong.

Xuan Qing looked at them and asked, "What is your origin, you Humans? From which main city did you come? What is your purpose here?"

Chen Hu and Liang Qian, accepting their grim fate, remained silent in response to Xuan Qing's questions.

Zhang Lingkong lay half-conscious, saying nothing.

Gao Yunhua sneered, "We are Warriors from Tide City, from the Martial Alliance of Tide City. If you know what's good for you, release us. Otherwise, once the Martial Alliance of Tide City arrives, you'll all be finished!"

Xuan Qing chuckled upon hearing this, "When are they coming then?"

Gao Yunhua responded with a cold smirk, "When, you need not know. Release us quickly, and when the Martial Alliance arrives, you merely need to kneel and beg for mercy. I assure you your lives will be spared!"

Gao Yunhua felt that Xuan Qing was intimidated by his bluff, smiling smugly.

"Hehe." Xuan Qing smiled slightly and tapped the Giant Elephant.

Roar—

The Giant Elephant roared furiously, lifting its front foot and slammed it towards Gao Yunhua.

"You—you—what are you doing..."

"No, don't..."

Gao Yunhua exclaimed in panic.

Bam—

The Giant Elephant stomped down, crushing Gao Yunhua's body into a pulp, blood splattering, staining Litian Ying and Kong Qi.

Litian Ying and Kong Qi were immediately terrified, their pupils dilating in fear.

Xuan Qing coldly declared, "Answer my questions truthfully, no tricks. I have no patience for you."

"What are you here for?"

Xuan Qing asked.

Zhang Lingkong, Chen Hu, Liang Qian, all remained silent.

Conversely, Litian Ying and Kong Qi trembled with fear, shaking uncontrollably.

Xuan Qing sneered, "Not talking? Then you'll die."

Immediately, the Giant Elephant again prepared to crush them underfoot.

But at this moment, Litian Ying quickly shouted, "I'll speak, I'll speak, don't kill me, don't kill me, Demon Clan master, don't kill me..."

Xuan Qing's gaze fell on Litian Ying, "Then speak!"

Litian Ying began, "We..."

Chen Hu roared, "Litian Ying, are you going to betray us?"

Liang Qian also looked furious.

Zhang Lingkong weakly said, "Litian Ying, Kong Qi, think it through. If you confess, you're not only betraying us, but also Tide City, Dongzhou Academy, and the entire Human Clan!"

"Can you bear such grave guilt?"

Zhang Lingkong said through clenched teeth.
