The moonlit sword aura cut into the Deserter's body, yet it only left a shallow white mark, not even piercing the skin.

In this moment of clash, not only Wang Junze, but everyone else, also looked at the opponent with increased astonishment.

So strong!

Although Deserters are indeed known for their formidable physical bodies, reaching this level seems somewhat unreasonable.

It's important to know, Wang Junze is not your typical Refining Spirit cultivator. Even if the sword just now, using the Profound Moon Sword Technique, wasn't a full-force attack, an ordinary Heaven-Stepping Realm individual would find it hard to block the strike, let alone withstanding it bodily without a scratch.

"Be careful, Junior Brother Wang, he possesses Demon Race bloodline!"

In an instant, Luo Qingxuan reacted, reminding in a stern voice.

The Extreme North Wilderness is not only home to Deserters but also the Demon Race!

Deserters and the Demon Race are quite close, with many Deserters interbreeding with them, and the resulting offspring have Demon Race bloodline. These Deserters are more powerful, with physiques far more formidable than other Deserters!

To withstand a sword from Wang Junze like that, such a physique is almost indistinguishable from a Demon Race individual, only a Deserter with Demon Race bloodline could achieve this.

"People from the Profound Moon Sword Sect?"

Slightly furrowing his brows, the Heaven-Stepping Realm Deserter was indifferent towards Wang Junze's earlier strike, instead easily deducing the identities of the people in front of him from Wang Junze's action.

Before Wang Junze and his companions could respond, the Deserter powerhouse spoke again: "What are you doing in the Extreme North Wilderness? You're not welcome here!"

"Wang Junze, disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect, may I ask how you are addressed?"

Slightly cupping his hands, Wang Junze asked in a deep voice.

"You are Wang Junze?"

Upon hearing Wang Junze reveal his name, a hint of surprise flashed in the Deserter's eyes as he spoke again to Wang Junze: "I've heard Jing Yuan mention you!"

Jing Yuan, hearing this name again, Wang Junze's heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

Given that the other party knows Jing Yuan, it's highly likely he's from the Divine Court, with a significant status, which explains his incredible strength.

"My name is Chi Xiao!"

Seemingly on account of Jing Yuan, the Deserter revealed his name.

Just one person, yet at this moment, Chi Xiao appeared extremely confident, as if he didn't consider the people from Profound Moon Sword Sect a threat.

"You are well acquainted with Jing Yuan?"

Wang Junze asked again.

"Sort of!"

Shrugging, Chi Xiao casually replied: "But that has nothing to do with you… Considering you haven't wantonly slaughtered Deserters, I can let you leave, turn back now while you still can."

Wang Junze's earlier effort to stop the other members of Profound Moon Sword Sect from killing Deserters to silence them had indeed brought some influence.

"Our task isn't completed, we can't leave!"

Shaking his head, Wang Junze calmly answered: "I know you're strong, but you alone can't stop us. Perhaps it's you who should be leaving!"

"Alone? Haha!"

Upon hearing this, Chi Xiao couldn't help but laugh heartily: "Have you forgotten, this is the Extreme North Wilderness, since I'm here, how could I be alone!"

Almost to confirm Chi Xiao's words, several terrifying auras suddenly rose in the distance, accompanied by the cries of demon beasts.

Demon Race!

Instantly, everyone realized, Chi Xiao may seem alone, but he is accompanied by the Demon Race!

This proved Luo Qingxuan's earlier judgment, Chi Xiao possesses Demon Race blood, drawing him closer to them.

In the next moment, they clearly saw the arriving Demon Race!

Dozens of black bears were charging towards them, their eyes gleaming with a red light, and in no time, they surrounded Wang Junze and the others.

"Since you refuse to leave, then you won't be leaving at all!"

A hint of a cold smile flickered at his lips, Chi Xiao spoke sinisterly.

In an instant, all the Bear Demons lunged at Wang Junze and the others, their Demon Qi soaring to the skies!

It's essential to know that even the weakest among these Bear Demons is equivalent to a Refining God Powerhouse, and the strongest are Heaven-Stepping beasts. Demon beasts' strength inherently surpasses that of humans at the same realm, and they fight tenaciously, showing no fear of death. Being encircled would place anyone in a highly dangerous situation, where the slightest negligence could result in being torn apart by these Bear Demons.

The others managed, possessing Heaven-Stepping cultivation, even if they were overwhelmed, they still had a chance to escape. However, Wang Junze could not fly, and falling into the midst would mean a dire battle to the death.

The fight erupted swiftly, leaving no time for thought, forcing everyone into combat.

Buzz!

In a flash, a radiant sword light burst forth, disregarding the Bear Demons to strike directly at Chi Xiao.

Sensing the danger, Luo Qingxuan dared not hold back, unleashing her full strength, attempting to slay Chi Xiao directly.

These Bear Demons were evidently brought by Chi Xiao, and killing him would likely cause them to scatter without direction, rather than battle the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect to the end.

This was undoubtedly the best course of action, and it must be admitted, Luo Qingxuan indeed held the power.

With Void Realm cultivation, Luo Qingxuan could ignore distance, launching an attack on Chi Xiao directly, and his formidable physique was, in her eyes, not impenetrable.

"Puff!"

With just a single stroke, a gash appeared on Chi Xiao's chest, blood spurted out, and Chi Xiao instinctively sensed the threat of death.

"Void Realm! You're Void Realm, damn it, how is there a Void Realm in the Wilderness, does the human race intend to declare war?"

In that instant, Chi Xiao cursed angrily, simultaneously sprinting away without looking back.

Chi Xiao feared no Heaven-Stepping human, not even the True Disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect could easily break through his defense, but Void Realm was entirely different, it posed a terrifying lethal threat.

"Think you can escape? It's not that simple, stay here for me!"

With a hint of killing intent in her eyes, Luo Qingxuan stepped forward, her entire being melded into the void, reappearing directly in front of Chi Xiao, thrusting a sword aimed at his vital point.

Before a Void-Breaking powerhouse, distance holds little meaning, escaping is exceedingly difficult.

In a few strikes, Chi Xiao suffered severe injuries, uttering pain-filled howls as he desperately fled onward.

In any other place, Chi Xiao would have no hope of escape, but here, in the Extreme North Wilderness, and with his home nearby, by escaping a bit further, more formidable Demon Race allies would soon arrive to rescue him!

However, as Luo Qingxuan pursued Chi Xiao, the surrounding Bear Demons seemingly went berserk, madly assaulting Wang Junze and the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect.

Since entering the Extreme North Wilderness, this was their first truly threatening battle.

"Kill!"

Without a moment's hesitation, Wang Junze unleashed his True Qi, deploying Yi Swordsmanship, engaging fiercely with the nearby Bear Demon.
