843: 842: First Arrival at a dium-Sized Settlent 843: 842: First Arrival at a dium-Sized Settlent “Human, I admit defeat.
As they say, one should leave a line of retreat to et again soday.
Please give another chance.”
“Sorry, but you’re not human.”
“I…
I don’t want to die!” The ancient creature actually began to cry.
Tang Feng was dumbfounded.
For heaven’s sake, it was supposed to be a powerful being, yet it had no sense of sha.
Then again, to be fair, it truly didn’t have a face.
“Fine, I can spare your life.
But you’ll need to hand over everything you have.
Don’t even think about fooling —I know what you’ve got.
If you try to deceive , I’m sorry, but I won’t hesitate to obliterate you,” Tang Feng said.
“Yes, I wouldn’t dare.” The creature spat out a pile of rings.
“Is this all?”
The ancient creature nearly fainted.
“Sir, this is everything.
I’ve spent tens of thousands of years collecting these.”
The tone was filled with reluctance, but in order to save its life, it handed everything over.
There was perhaps an advantage to it not being human—if it were, it might’ve hidden half at least.
No human would have handed over all their belongings just from a single bluff by Tang Feng.
Tang Feng stored away the pile of Immortal Rings, among which were a few from the Divine Realm.
It seed that the Ancient Battlefield could indeed birth divine beings, though the specifics of how they advanced remained a mystery to explore.
“Sir, may I leave now?”
“Go ahead.” Tang Feng waved his hand.
The ancient creature imdiately turned around and, in the next second, disappeared in a flash before Tang Feng’s stunned eyes.
The spikes on its body transford into sprinting legs.
Who could possibly catch up to it?
“Thank you, senior, for saving our lives.” Two won approached.
Though still injured, their lives were no longer in danger.
“Just a small favor.
Which settlent are you from?” Tang Feng asked.
“Qin City.
What about you, senior?”
“I just arrived.” Tang Feng didn’t reveal the truth.
The two won were delighted upon hearing this.
“Senior, why not co visit Qin City?
Let us show you the hospitality of our settlent.”
“Alright.” Seeing their wounds, Tang Feng decided to treat them.
He refrained from using an Immortal Pill, as a fleeting acquaintance didn’t warrant such generosity.
Moreover, he didn’t want to waste such precious resources.
After Tang Feng’s treatnt, the two won recovered about seventy percent.
His thods astonished them, making them revere him like a celestial being—and further strengthened their intent to recruit him.
With soone as powerful as Tang Feng in their faction, Qin City wouldn’t take long to beco one of the major forces.
Along the way, Tang Feng asked questions, and they answered without hesitation, providing plenty of detail.
Tang Feng gained a general understanding of Qin City’s situation.
Apparently, the settlent’s strongest person was a prince from the Immortal Domain’s Qin Dynasty.
In just a few years, he had established a mid-level settlent.
His thods and resources were extraordinary.
Reportedly, he spared no expense recruiting powerful individuals who entered the battlefield, thus quickly elevating the settlent to mid-tier strength.
At the current rate, it might only take a few years for Qin City to beco a large-scale settlent.
The total number of immortals in the city had already reached close to a hundred million.
In comparison, the smallest settlents had just tens of thousands of people.
The disparity was astonishing.
However, not all individuals in mid-level settlents were truly strong.
Most were still at the Initial God-casting Realm or below, and those at the Venerate Palace Realm were countless in number.
On the battlefield, only divine beings and those at the God-casting Realm could ensure their survival.
Those at the Venerate Palace Realm were far more nurous but often served as cannon fodder.
Take these two won, for instance—they were at the Early-stage God-casting Realm, but even they were considered cannon fodder, their strength inferior to so at the Venerate Palace Realm.
That said, they still dared to venture out, which Tang Feng couldn’t help but respect.
This was partly why he saved them.
Truth be told, they were braver than many n.
Qin City was imnse, with towering defensive walls standing over a hundred ters tall and fifty ters thick.
The city looked magnificent, a testant to nearly a hundred thousand years of history since its construction.
Upon entering, the profound historical aura imdiately enveloped visitors.
This aura, however, wasn’t perceptible to just anyone.
Tang Feng, having mastered Spatial Divine Power, could sense a faint trace of ti’s sedintation.
A city of nearly a hundred million was indeed impressive.
It was bustling with people, flourishing comrce, and well-maintained order.
Internal conflicts seed rare in Qin City; its ruler was evidently a capable leader.
Tang Feng walked around while observing, absorbing its strengths and recognizing its flaws.
His visit to Qin City provided valuable insights for how to develop a mid-level settlent in the future.
“Junior Sister, are you alright?
We were waiting for Senior Brother to arrive so we could co rescue you.” At that mont, Tang Feng saw two n walking out of an inn—three people had fled earlier, and these were two of them.
To be honest, if it had been just the two n, Tang Feng wouldn’t have even bothered speaking to them.
While fleeing to escape danger was understandable, abandoning teammates from the sa sect—without even attempting to help—was unacceptable.
These two hadn’t even returned to seek reinforcents; their words were blatant lies.
Such composure, such deceit—Tang Feng was impressed.
The variations in human character, the depths of the human heart, were truly hard to fathom.
He had once believed that sincereness would be t with sincereness in return.
The heart, however, had its own sentints.
The two won blinked back tears as they gazed at their fellow disciples who had grown up alongside them, deeply disappointed.
Before they left, the n had sworn to protect them, but at the first sign of trouble, they had cast them aside without hesitation.
What use were such senior brothers?
If they couldn’t keep promises, they shouldn’t have made them, as it would at least spare others the pain.
The won didn’t say a word.
They stared at the two n silently for about thirty seconds before turning away.
“This is bad.
If Master finds out we abandoned our junior sisters, we’ll face serious punishnt,” one man said.
“Exactly.
We must ensure Master doesn’t learn about this.
Considering his temperant, he might actually kill us,” the other man agreed.
“So, what do you two suggest?”
The two exchanged hand gestures, terrifying the third man.
“Are you mad?
Those are our junior sisters!
I won’t go along with this.” He turned on his heels and walked away.
The other two shared a glance and then followed him.
Around a corner, they simultaneously struck.
“Pfft!” Their swords pierced through him, destroying his Dantian and Immortal Soul in an instant.
“Kill.”
He heard a single word—kill.
“You…
You two will die horrible deaths!”
He could never have imagined that his closest senior brothers, with whom he had grown up, would murder him over a re disagreent.
The two perpetrators were stunned by what they had done.
They regretted it sowhat, but soon their expressions twisted into malice.
If their senior brother had reported to Master about their plan to kill their junior sisters, they would’ve been dood.
“Do you think we’ll go to Hell for this?” one asked.
“Probably.
But at least we’re still alive right now, aren’t we?”
They said no more, staring at the familiar face lying lifeless beneath them.
Despite feeling so sadness, they didn’t reflect on the cruelty of their actions.
Instead, they blad their senior brother for refusing to join them.
If he had agreed, they wouldn’t have needed to kill him.
Such a mindset, such people, could only be described as utterly depraved.
They didn’t linger for long.
After disposing of the body, they hurried to the manor, intent on killing the two junior sisters before they returned.
By this point, they had completely lost their grip on sanity.
