After giving it some thought, everyone was immediately convinced by Xiao Chuan's answer.

Exactly!

Sparing a corpse still counted as sparing it!

If Xiao Chuan said he would spare your life, then even half a breath still counted as a life, right?

Such thoughts filled Xiao Yi Xian's mind, and she also came to understand what kind of person Xiao Chuan was.

Xiao Chuan folded his arms across his chest. "Let's go. Take me to your mercenary group."

How could the guards before him dare disobey? They led the way, bringing Xiao Chuan toward the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's base.

"Do you want to watch the show?" Xiao Chuan turned to look at Xiao Yi Xian and the other three women, smiling as warmly as a gentleman.

Had they not witnessed what had just happened, they would have thought Xiao Chuan was completely harmless.

But they all knew that if Xiao Chuan had not stepped in and dealt with Mu Li, they would have been in serious trouble next.

"I'll go with you." Xiao Yi Xian knew this matter had started because of her. Now that Mu Li was dead and she had been involved, there was no way she could avoid being implicated.

She turned to the three women. "Leave Qingshan Town quickly. The farther away you go, the better."

"There's no need for all that trouble. After today, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group will be gone." Xiao Chuan clasped his hands behind his head and strode ahead without a care.

Xiao Yi Xian reminded them, "Go back first. If anything happens, I'll inform you immediately."

The three women knew Xiao Yi Xian. One of their fathers had been gravely ill, but Xiao Yi Xian had ultimately saved him.

They had come to see Xiao Yi Xian this time so she could examine him again and determine whether her father had fully recovered. None of them had expected to encounter something like this.

"Xiao Yi Xian..."

The three women still wanted to say something, but Xiao Yi Xian simply smiled. "It's alright. Go back first."

The three women nodded heavily, then turned and hurried away.

Xiao Yi Xian caught up with Xiao Chuan and followed the guards. Before long, they arrived at the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's territory.

Many people had witnessed what had just happened, and they followed along to watch the excitement.

"This guy really has guts. He actually killed Mu Li outright. The Wolf Head Mercenary Group definitely won't let him off."

"I think this young man is no ordinary person. Otherwise, he would have run away long ago. Why would he still go to the Wolf Head Mercenary Group?"

"It would be wonderful if the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, that cancerous growth, could be eliminated. Then Qingshan Town could finally have some peace."

The people present were merely commoners and could not see through Xiao Chuan's strength at all. Xiao Yi Xian did feel that he was extraordinary, but that was all.

Just as Xiao Chuan was about to step through the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's gates, Xiao Yi Xian tugged at his sleeve. "Are you really going in? This is the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's territory."

Xiao Chuan remained as calm as ever, as though everything was under his control. "Meeting is fate. This Seven-Colored Poison Manual is for you."

"The Seven-Colored... Poison Manual?"

Xiao Yi Xian looked at the poison manual in Xiao Chuan's hand but did not reach for it. He stuffed it into her arms instead.

"Take it. Consider it a favor you owe me, and you'll have to repay it someday." Xiao Chuan's lips curved slightly. Using Xiao Yi Xian's opportunity to make Xiao Yi Xian owe him a favor—he really was a terrible person.

Just as Xiao Yi Xian was about to speak, Xiao Chuan raised a finger and pressed it against her red lips. "Wait for me here. It might get a little bloody inside."

Xiao Yi Xian stood where she was and watched Xiao Chuan enter the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's gates, unable to recover her senses for a long while.

The guards who had returned earlier had already rushed into the camp. By then, Mu She, the leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, already knew that his son Mu Li was dead.

"Where is that man?"

"Right outside."

"Come with me!!"

Mu She led the second commander Gan Mu and the third commander He Meng out of the hall. They happened to see Xiao Chuan walking over, surrounded by a crowd.

"You killed my son!" Mu She's eyes were bloodshot. That was his only son!!

"I killed him." Xiao Chuan stood with his hands on his hips and picked at his ear. "I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. I'll make sure your whole family is reunited nice and neatly."

"Capture him!!" Mu She immediately gave the order. He wished he could slice Xiao Chuan into a thousand pieces right then and there.

Xiao Chuan raised his foot and stomped hard on the ground. Powerful Dou Qi suddenly erupted, sweeping through the surroundings in an instant and blasting everyone around him away.

The mercenaries were thrown into chaos, coughing up blood. In the blink of an eye, they died on the spot, utterly and completely dead.

"They're all dead..." Gan Mu and He Meng were horrified. Xiao Chuan had taken out so many people with just one move.

"Now then, whose turn is it?" Xiao Chuan pointed at Mu She and the other two with great interest, a smile tugging at his lips.

He Meng and Gan Mu immediately tried to distance themselves from Mu She. They had no desire to get dragged into this.

But just as Gan Mu took his first step, Xiao Chuan flashed before him and slapped his head apart.

Gan Mu: You hadn't even chosen yet! How could you attack already? Where was your martial virtue?!

He Meng instantly froze. Gan Mu's brains splattered across his face, and terror left him too afraid to move even an inch.

"My lord, I was too loud just now. Please, be magnanimous and let me go like I'm nothing but a fart!" All the anger on Mu She's body vanished, replaced entirely by his desperate desire to live.

Xiao Chuan looked at him. "You said you're a fart?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm a fart!" Mu She hurriedly agreed. If Xiao Chuan said he was a dog, he would bark twice without hesitation.

Xiao Chuan shook his head and laughed. "You reminded me of something disgusting from my childhood. I used to like catching farts and making other people smell them."

"???" Mu She had no idea what Xiao Chuan meant.

"Since you said you're a fart, you don't mind if I catch you, right?" Xiao Chuan raised an arm toward Mu She.

"As you wish."

Mu She thought it would be fine if Xiao Chuan merely caught him once. As long as he could live, he would even be willing to offer himself up.

"Then get ready."

With a wave of Xiao Chuan's hand, an enormous suction force burst forth. Once Mu She felt it, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"My body... Ah!!"

Accompanied by Mu She's scream, He Meng watched with his own eyes as Mu She turned into a cloud of blood mist and scattered everywhere.

He was splashed across the face again, his entire body covered in brains mixed with blood...

"Not gonna lie, that's pretty disgusting."

He Meng had no idea whether Xiao Chuan meant that catching farts was disgusting or that his current appearance was disgusting, but he unconsciously dropped to his knees.

"My lord, please spare me..."

"Alright, I'll spare you."

Xiao Chuan agreed far too readily, making He Meng suspicious.

"Then I can go?"

He Meng pointed at himself and asked Xiao Chuan whether he could leave.

"Ah, damn it, why did you have to say those three words? You reminded me of something unpleasant. Don't go!"

Xiao Chuan killed He Meng with a single palm strike. He Meng did not even know how he had died, much less what certain-death condition he had triggered.

At that moment, Xiao Chuan turned and looked toward Xiao Yi Xian and the others at the gate. They had witnessed every scene just now.

Mu She was dead...

The Wolf Head Mercenary Group was dead...

This man had done it...

However, when they saw Xiao Chuan walking toward them, they immediately scattered in all directions.

Xiao Chuan was terrifyingly strong. They had only come to watch the excitement and had no intention of leaving their lives here.

"I already said it might get a little bloody. Why did you still watch?"

"Can I ask what realm you're at?" Xiao Yi Xian asked curiously.

"Dou Wang."

"You're a Dou Wang!!"

Xiao Yi Xian's red lips parted slightly, as though she had heard something utterly unbelievable.
