"Ah!!"
Lin Tianhe let out a miserable scream as his flesh and blood separated from his bones, leaving only a skeleton behind.
The black-clothed, masked person who had been following closely behind him, never leaving his side, made a slight oversight while tracking Xu Hei, almost leading to Lin Tianhe's tragic death!
This person reached out and grabbed Lin Tianhe, simultaneously waving a large seal that collided with the murderous aura. However, with just one encounter, the seal shattered into pieces, and the person spat out a mouthful of blood, flying backward, unable to withstand the killing intent!
"Not good, retreat quickly!" Gongsun Bo shouted, retreating swiftly.
The murderous aura spread too quickly. Fortunately, Xu Hei dodged in ti and wasn't hit, but the others weren't so lucky, losing limbs, especially Lin Tianhe, who was closest and was directly sliced into pieces. The black-clothed person who ca to his aid also suffered.
Luckily, Ding Yi appeared just in ti, activating a formation with a squeeze of his palm. A light shield compressed towards the center, trapping all the murderous aura within a small area.
"Shhh..."
The surging murderous aura struck the light shield, causing the formation to tremble violently, producing a deafening roar that made Ding Yi's heart pound with fear.
Everyone retreated a thousand feet away, and when they focused their gaze, they were stunned.
Within the small area trapped by the formation, the murderous aura road, forming scarlet phantoms filled with intense resentnt and unwillingness, wandering and destroying everything tangible within.
At the center of the formation, within a cut stone, a small broken blade hovered in mid-air.
It was this palm-sized broken blade that emitted such terrifying killing intent.
"What is going on?"
"What is this thing?"
"Why did it reveal sothing so terrifying!"
"Oh my god, could this be a fragnt of a divine weapon from the upper realm!"
Various discussions arose.
Everyone looked at the floating broken blade with shock, confusion, curiosity, eagerness, and fear.
A fragnt of an unknown ancient broken blade, yet it possessed such murderous aura, instantly severely injuring two late Elental Infant stage cultivators, and nearly killing Lin Tianhe. What level of treasure could it be?
At this mont, most of Lin Tianhe's flesh and blood had vanished, leaving only bones, as he was dragged to safety by the masked black-clothed person.
The black-clothed person imdiately supported Lin Tianhe, administering several pills into his body, and took out nurous spiritual herbs, dispersing them.
Yet, despite the abundance of spirit dicine, Lin Tianhe's condition worsened, with blood continuously oozing out.
The spirit dicine worked, constantly repairing and damaging, leaving Lin Tianhe on the brink of collapse.
Seeing these spirit dicines, Xu Hei's eyes flashed with heat. If it weren't for being in Liefeng City, he would have snatched them without hesitation. Killing and seizing treasures, Xu Hei wouldn't feel a shred of guilt.
"Damn it!"
The black-clothed person's eyes were filled with intense killing intent as he glanced at Xu Hei, angrily shouting, "You knew there was sothing wrong with that stone, didn't you?"
"How could I have known? That stone was originally recomnded to by old man Yuan, but Lin Tianhe snatched it first. Who can he bla?" Xu Hei almost laughed.
This was true; everyone saw it. No matter how you twist the facts, this was the reality.
"Then why did you suddenly run away?" the masked person demanded angrily.
"What? My legs were itching, and I wanted to move around. Is that not allowed? Do you have to control even that?" Xu Hei sneered.
The masked person trembled with anger, and Lin Tianhe, in his severely injured state, spat out a large mouthful of blood, clearly having heard Xu Hei's mocking words.
If Xu Hei hadn't suddenly run away, his senior brother wouldn't have pursued him, leading to this disaster! Xu Hei must have done it on purpose.
But they had no evidence!
"You brat, prepare to die!" The masked person, despite his anger, prioritized saving Lin Tianhe, swallowing his anger.
He took out another handful of rare dicinal herbs, placing them into Lin Tianhe's body, and infused a large amount of true essence to suppress his injuries.
Seeing this, Xu Hei had a thought.
"Should I take this opportunity to kill these two and eliminate future troubles?"
Xu Hei knew that killing in Liefeng City violated the rules, but if he beca a guest of the city, would Luo Gang really take his life?
He wouldn't let two people harboring murderous intent towards him live.
With this in mind, Xu Hei approached the two who were healing.
"Are you planning to make a move?" The masked person beca highly alert.
He sensed the naked killing intent in Xu Hei's eyes.
However, the masked person didn't flee, continuing to heal Lin Tianhe, his eyes narrowing with a cold gleam, even speeding up the transfer of true essence, making himself appear more vulnerable.
This abnormal behavior made Xu Hei frown.
"Is he deliberately luring to attack?" Xu Hei pondered, considering the success rate of his strike.
At this mont, Luo Gang also arrived at the scene.
Such a major incident was rare in Liefeng City. However, the murderous aura had been contained, and the scarlet broken blade rose and fell within the formation.
"What is this thing?"
Luo Gang stood outside the light shield, staring at the broken blade, deep in thought.
"This is an ancient evil weapon, having absorbed too much resentnt. Its owner is likely a demonic cultivator!" Ding Yi said solemnly.
Xu Hei then turned his attention to it, sharing a similar view with Ding Yi. This was indeed an evil weapon! Yet, with his knowledge of magical treasures, he couldn't determine its grade.
"The power of this magical treasure is likely not inferior to the Dragon Slaying Sword. Even as a re fragnt, it can kill autonomously. But from which era does it originate?"
Xu Hei, observing from a distance, couldn't accurately appraise the item.
He estimated it might have reached the fifth-grade superior level.
Xu Hei's eyes flickered as he shouted at Lin Tianhe, "You unearthed this magical treasure, so why not go and retrieve it?"
This was clearly ant to provoke. How could soone so injured retrieve it?
"I will take it myself, no need for your concern!" the black-clothed person replied coldly.
"That's not how it works. Your magical treasure caused such a big ss, nearly destroying the stone workshop and forcing the City Lord to intervene. The formation suffered significant damage. Shouldn't you compensate for the losses?" Xu Hei said.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned peculiar.
The logic was sound, but it felt off sohow.
This was Liefeng City's first encounter with such an incident. If an evil object was unearthed and caused harm, to whom did it belong?
Ding Yi, controlling the formation, had sweat seeping from his forehead, his face pale, as he gritted his teeth and said, "Fellow cultivators of the Tianhen Sword Sect, since the evil weapon is yours, please take it away imdiately! Don't leave it here to harm others!"
He was following Xu Hei's lead.
But this put the two in a difficult position. The black-clothed person angrily retorted, "This dangerous item was sold to by your stone gambling workshop. It's your responsibility!"
