The man's eyes widened, unable to dodge in time.
He was sent flying on the spot, his head hitting a tree, and he passed out.
The girl was released.
She immediately collapsed on the ground, gasping for fresh air.
Seeing this, the other two men became extremely wary.
They instantly backed up, backs against each other, and cautiously scanned their surroundings.
"Who's there! Come out!"
"If you have the guts, come out and fight me one-on-one! Sneaking attacks aren't the way of heroes!"
Hearing this.
Su Luo pushed aside the bushes and stood before the two men.
Upon seeing Su Luo's somewhat youthful face, the two men burst into laughter.
"Kid, trying to play hero and save the damsel? You should check if you're strong enough first."
One of them caught sight of the backpack behind Su Luo.
"Hand over the Crystal Cores in your backpack, and we might consider letting you go," the man said greedily.
Su Luo let out a few contemptuous laughs.
"Hmph, you guys? Want my Crystal Cores?"
"How ridiculous."
"Put your backpacks on the ground and get lost!"
"Do as I say, and I might even spare your lives."
Upon hearing this.
The two men exchanged a glance.
So, they were fellow travelers.
"Kid! You want to rob our Crystal Cores? You've reached the end of your rope in this life!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
One of them conjured a stream of flames out of thin air.
It seemed he had awakened a fire-control ability, likely C-class.
The other man drew the saber at his waist and charged at Su Luo.
He had likely awakened an ability specializing in swordsmanship.
Two attacks came from two different directions.
Su Luo stood his ground, hands in his pockets, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
In an instant, immense gravity descended like a meteor, crashing down with a boom.
The flames were instantly extinguished under this gravity.
The two men were slammed face-first onto the ground with a smack.
Both were crushed by the gravity, unable to move.
Su Luo walked up to the man with the saber.
He raised his foot and stepped on the man's head, grinding it fiercely into the ground.
"I offered you a way out, but you didn't take it, so don't blame me."
As he spoke, he intensified the gravity on their bodies.
They heard the horrifying sound of their bones grinding, as if they were about to break.
The fear in their hearts made them quickly beg for mercy.
"Big brother! Please, let us go!"
"If you let us go, we'll give you our Crystal Cores right away!"
Hearing this, Su Luo shook his head dismissively.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
"It seems you still haven't recognized reality."
"Even if I kill you, the Crystal Cores will still be mine!"
Under their terrified gazes.
The two men were crushed into bloody meat patties by the immense gravity.
Their deaths were swift and painless.
Witnessing their gruesome fate.
The girl's eyes widened in fear as she looked at Su Luo.
She quickly cupped the Crystal Cores on her body in her hands and knelt down to beg for mercy.
"Please don't kill me, I'll give you all my Crystal Cores!"
"I only beg you to spare my life."
Su Luo slung both their backpacks over his shoulders.
He glanced at the Crystal Cores in the girl's hands, a look of disdain flashing across his face.
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your meager offerings."
"Here's some advice: your strength is too weak."
"If you don't have friends to team up with, don't leave the city easily."
"Otherwise, you might lose your life."
With that, he stopped paying attention to the girl.
He walked towards the person who had already fainted.
Just as he was about to squat down and check if the person was breathing.
Unexpectedly, the person's eyes snapped open.
He raised the knife hidden in his hand and stabbed towards Su Luo's neck.
He wanted to finish Su Luo off before Su Luo could react.
But he had clearly underestimated Su Luo.
With an instantaneous activation of the Paw Ability, the knife in the man's hand was sent flying.
In the moment the man was stunned.
Su Luo raised his hand and delivered a slap imbued with the Paw Ability.
There was a crack.
The man's neck was instantly broken.
After rotating three hundred and sixty degrees, it was twisted into a knot.
The man's eyes widened, blood flowed from his seven orifices, and he died on the spot with a look of disbelief.
Su Luo did not hesitate at all.
He weighed the backpack on the man's back.
The immediate heaviness made him secretly delighted.
"He actually tried to sneak attack me, how laughable."
"Consider this bag of Crystal Cores my spiritual compensation!"
"Sweet dreams!"
Witnessing Su Luo's ruthless methods, the girl trembled all over.
She couldn't help but imagine how terrifying it would be if this move were used on her.
The sky was getting dark.
Su Luo took out his phone and checked the time.
It was already past six o'clock.
It was time to return to the city.
As he passed by the girl, he glanced at her.
Her features looked a little familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had seen her before.
Seeing Su Luo look at her, the girl quickly lowered her head.
Seeing that the girl didn't dare to meet his gaze, Su Luo continued walking forward nonchalantly.
He was already thinking about how much money he could make by selling these Crystal Cores.
The girl staggered to her feet.
She looked around at the empty surroundings.
And the three corpses around them.
Finally, she mustered up the courage and stepped forward to follow him.
She could only hope that the person wouldn't get angry and kill her if he saw her following him.
She just wanted to return to the city.
The two entered the city.
Su Luo looked back at the girl.
"Hurry home. Don't leave the city until you become a Transcendent."
The girl nodded timidly, then turned and ran.
Su Luo watched the girl's retreating figure disappear.
He turned and found the merchant at the city gate who specialized in collecting Crystal Cores.
He showed the merchant the four bags of Crystal Cores.
The merchant was stunned.
It wasn't that he had never seen so many Crystal Cores before.
It was that someone had brought back this many Crystal Cores.
This made him curious as to where so many Crystal Cores came from.
But curiosity was one thing; he wouldn't ask.
What if such a major client got angry and refused to sell to him anymore?
"Guest, after counting, there are a total of 75 Level 1 Crystal Cores here."
"At the market price of 20,000 each, that's a total of 1.5 million."
"Is there anything else you'd like to buy?"
"If not, I'll transfer the money to you directly."
Seeing so much money for the first time.
Su Luo's mind went blank; he didn't react immediately.
But soon, he calmed down.
It was only 1.5 million; there was no need to get so excited.
He remembered he still had a Devil Fruit waiting to mature.
He recalled the price of a Level 3 Crystal Core, which was about 2 million.
He couldn't afford it yet.
He still had to work hard to save money.
"No, I don't need to buy anything. Just transfer the money to me."
The 1.5 million arrived.
He returned to the hotel.
Using his Paw Ability, he expelled the fatigue from his body.
As usual, he opened the window and let out the balloon.
Whoever it touched would be unlucky.
Meanwhile, the girl who had returned to the city.
Was now stumbling into a villa.
Coincidentally.
This villa was Shen Huaiyue's family villa.
Shen Huaiyue heard the commotion and immediately came out.
Dusty and dirty, the girl.
The moment she saw Shen Huaiyue, she burst into tears.
"Waaah~ Sis~"
Seeing this, Shen Huaiyue already had a bad feeling.
