Chen Bin: Have You Felt How Your Son Died?

"Were you the one who killed my four sons?"

"Four?" Chen Bin smiled, recalling the four Tiger Demons he had killed first last night.

He urged his horse forward, but it had already been spooked and refused to take another step.

Chen Bin had no choice but to dismount and walk forward, speaking as he went:

"You mean that little tiger who disguised himself as an old man?

Now I remember!

That little brat had it pretty rough. I stabbed him straight through the heart, then dragged the blade sideways and cut off his head.

He really had it rough. In the end, he couldn't even manage a scream.

There was another one who had it even worse.

I cut him in half at the waist.

Do you understand?

Cut in half at the waist. His hind legs fell away, but his upper body kept lunging forward. He screamed for half a quarter hour before he finally died."

As Chen Bin walked closer, he described it all in vivid detail, without the slightest trace of fear on his face.

"Roar!" Tiger One let out a furious bellow, making it clear he was enraged beyond measure.

"Good. Very good!"

He stepped forward, his enormous body stirring up a gust of wind as he prepared to attack.

"Lord Tiger One," Kang Ronghao called loudly. "We've delivered the man. We only ask that you honor your promise and let us leave first."

"Honor my promise?" Tiger One's eyelids drooped, as if he had sunk into memory.

"Someone who doesn't keep his word expects a demon like me to keep mine?"

His cold gaze swept over the group. "Are you joking?"

Kang Ronghao's body went rigid. Everyone felt a chill run through them, as an invisible fear closed in around them.

"Are you joking?"

Tiger One's words were like a bitter winter gale, chilling everyone to the bone in an instant.

Tiger One slowly turned his head, his gaze blazing as he fixed it on Tiger Two. Then he said coldly, "Kill them. Leave no one alive."

Now!

Chen Bin gave a silent shout in his heart.

The instant Tiger One turned his head, he had already moved.

He lowered his body slightly, gathering force, then drove off with both feet. Dust burst into the air beneath him.

The moment Tiger One finished speaking, Chen Bin shot forward like a bolt of black lightning, arriving before him in an instant.

"Seeking death!" Tiger One's lips curled into a sneer, his eyes full of contempt.

With your Body Tempering Realm cultivation?

Fine. Today, I'll show you the gulf between the Body Tempering Realm and the Qi Gathering Realm—a gulf as wide as a heavenly chasm!

Clearly, in Tiger One's eyes, Chen Bin was nothing more than an ant, not worth mentioning.

But just then, Tiger One's pupils contracted sharply.

A black blade shimmering with pale golden light had somehow already pierced his chest.

With a wet chhk, the blade sank in up to the hilt. Then it twisted savagely inside his chest and ripped sideways.

Ten Perfect Steps. One Circle Taiji.

Chen Bin's figure flickered like a wraith in the dead of night, the Demon Suppression Blade buried in Tiger One's chest as it carved a long gash.

Blood poured out in a crimson torrent, spraying like a fountain.

"Roar!" A thunderous tiger's roar shook the heavens. Only after Chen Bin landed his strike and leaped to safety did it finally reverberate across the world.

The roar came not only from Tiger One, but also from Tiger Two and the other tiger cubs. Their cries intertwined, making everyone's hearts pound with terror.

Tiger One swung his massive paws in fury, but struck nothing, grasping only at empty air.

His hands flew to cover the wound, but blood gushed from his pierced heart like a breached dam, thick and scarlet. It trickled through the gaps between his claws and pattered onto the ground.

Seeing the layer of golden qi distorting the air around Chen Bin's blade, Tiger One was shocked. Only then did he realize his opponent's true strength. "You're in the Qi Gathering Realm?"

"So?"

Chen Bin stood firm three zhang away, his gaze fixed coldly on his opponent, murderous intent chilling in his eyes. "Have you felt how your son died?

"Right. Just like this.

"Your head spins, your steps grow unsteady, and your body temperature is draining away."

"Kill them! Kill them!"

Tiger One gave a low growl, his voice thick with rage and unwillingness.

A layer of blood-red demonic aura rose over his body, blazing like flames as it quickly converged on the wound.

He meant to direct his demonic aura to seal the wound and stop the bleeding.

Demons in the Qi Gathering Realm were just like humans.

Humans could direct Internal Energy to coat their weapons and bodies.

Demons could also direct their demonic aura to seal their wounds.

The pack of tigers roared and charged, surging forward like a raging tide.

Tiger Two's massive body suddenly launched into the air like a cannonball, hurtling toward Chen Bin.

He knew perfectly well who posed the greatest threat.

His enormous body descended from above like a dark cloud, looming before Chen Bin and casting a crushing shadow.

Chen Bin's expression was icy. He gripped his blade and swept his gaze across the battlefield, sharp as lightning.

Tiger One was no longer much of a threat. Tiger Two was unquestionably the greatest danger.

As for whether the people Kang Ronghao had brought survived, what did that matter to him at a moment when life and death hung in the balance?

Chen Bin unleashed Ten Perfect Steps to the fullest, his figure vanishing from the spot as if he had merged with the air.

To everyone's surprise, he charged toward the Tiger Demons in the Body Tempering Realm.

As Tiger Two's massive body hit the ground, Chen Bin had already swept past Kang Ronghao. He didn't stop to strike him.

He calculated that if Kang Ronghao wanted to live, he would have to fight Tiger Two. In that case, Kang Ronghao would be a temporary ally.

Chen Bin shot forward like a streak of black light, reaching a Tiger Demon in the Body Tempering Realm in a few swift steps.

His blade traced an elegant arc through the air. A flash of cold light, and the enormous tiger's head hit the ground. Blood gushed out, staining the earth red.

As for Tiger Two, the instant he charged in, he ran straight into Kang Ronghao.

But what made Chen Bin's heart sink was this:

Kang Ronghao was sent flying with a single blow from Tiger Two. He soared through the air like a kite with its strings cut, then crashed heavily to the ground.

"Get lost!" Tiger Two roared. He swatted Kang Ronghao away with a claw, then thundered toward Chen Bin like a roaring tank.

Chen Bin had just killed his second Tiger Demon when Tiger Two was already bearing down on him.

A huge paw swept toward him with a whoosh. Chen Bin's eyes sharpened. Rather than take the blow head-on, he lightly tapped the ground with his toes and sprang away like a wisp of green smoke.

"Roar!" Tiger Two snarled furiously at Chen Bin, then paused and turned to his brothers. "Go kill those constables. I'll deal with this one."

At his words, the other Tiger Demons instantly changed targets. Like a pack of hungry wolves, they lunged at the Captains and constables of the Demon Suppression Division.

Three zhang away, Chen Bin held his blade across his body, facing two Tiger Demons in the Qi Gathering Realm, his expression grave.

His gaze swept over the battlefield like an eagle's.
