Instant Kill

"Everyone, this is Huaxia!"

Minister Liu's voice resonated instantly across the firmament.

At this moment, Chen Tianxin also slowly arrived at Liu Feng's side, a peach blossom petal pinched between his fingers and a smile playing on his lips.

"Everyone, if you intend to throw your weight around here, it's not a very wise choice!"

Having said that, he gently tossed the petal from his hand.

Whoosh, whoosh—

A commotion erupted as the peach blossom instantly dispersed, manifesting into a sea of flowers. Within every single petal, a dense, surging killing intent emerged!

"Minister Liu is joking. How could we possibly act wantonly on Huaxia's soil?"

Gradually, the phantom of the six-winged angel faded away, revealing a middle-aged man with golden hair and blue eyes. He was exceptionally handsome, his lips curled into a smile.

"No offense intended!"

The old man holding the iron hammer also spoke in a deep voice.

However, his voice sounded like a muffled roll of thunder, echoing across the sky.

"Behave yourselves, or you won't be walking out of here," Liu Feng said, slowly putting away his Blade Case. In an instant, the blade qi between heaven and earth vanished, as if it had never appeared at all.

Only then did Liu Feng say indifferently, "Please."

The old man and the middle-aged man both smiled slightly and, following the direction of Liu Feng's arm, slowly stepped through the air toward him.

At this moment, inside the ruins.

Yang Chen led the remaining eleven people toward the depths of the hills.

During the journey, Yang Chen had encountered several attacks, but fortunately, the remaining eleven were quite obedient, and the only one who hadn't been was already weeded out.

Therefore, there had been no casualties!

After experiencing these few attacks, the strong individuals in the team had become convinced by Yang Chen.

Although Yang Chen was still quite young, his judgment when facing crises was formidable!

At the very least, up until now, there hadn't been a single casualty!

Moreover, among these few attacks, there had been several instances of S-Class combat power, yet they had been blocked or even slain by Yang Chen!

This had only served to make Yang Chen's prestige grow even stronger.

At this moment, the twelve of them, including Yang Chen, moved forward slowly, their pace not fast.

After all, in this unknown place—a place where even those in the Shackle Realm risked falling—one had to be careful.

Although this wasn't considered the core area, it was still dangerous.

Take those previous attacks, for example; they had all involved S-Class combat power. If Yang Chen hadn't been in the squad, they likely would have been wiped out entirely.

After all, there wasn't even a single peak A-Class expert in the team!

Yang Chen and the others left the jungle behind them and had now entered the mountains.

The spiritual energy within the mountains was even denser than where Yang Chen had first entered, to the point where one could faintly see droplets formed from the spiritual energy itself.

Spiritual energy so dense it had liquefied!

Yang Chen and the others had burning gazes, wishing they could start cultivating right there and then.

But there was still one problem.

It was too dangerous!

The situation here was unknown, and it was far too easy for something to go wrong.

"Keep moving!"

Yang Chen looked around indifferently. This place was somewhat similar to White Tiger Mountain, where he had been before, but there were still differences.

In Yang Chen's perception, several powerful auras were circling in the vicinity, and they had to leave this place as soon as possible!

The people behind him nodded slightly and then followed in Yang Chen's wake.

But just at this moment, an unexpected change occurred.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!

The earth suddenly shuddered violently, and cracks spread out across the ground like a spiderweb.

Yang Chen's body trembled slightly, and he roared, "Scatter!"

However, it was already too late.

The moment Yang Chen's voice fell, a black centipede coiled and surged out directly from the earth.

Its massive body swept across the area in an instant.

Several B-Class ability users were struck by that enormous frame and immediately vomited blood.

In a single moment, they were severely wounded!

Zhang Shilei and Kong Lingze reacted slightly faster, dodging the centipede's sweep, and then dashed toward the direction of the injured B-Class experts.

Prepare to save them!

Yang Chen looked at the black centipede, his expression turning grim.

That centipede was an S-Class existence, even a fraction stronger than the Flying Tiger.

Yet, it dared to ambush him?

Death wish!

Fury flickered in Yang Chen's eyes.

Flames instantly surged, as if he were a monarch of fire; the flames roared, mirroring the eruption of Yang Chen's rage.

"Die!"

Yang Chen threw a punch, the power of his Grandmaster Body exploding in an instant, a formidable pressure instantly bearing down upon the black centipede.

As the immense pressure landed on the black centipede's body, the creature let out a mournful cry.

It was as if it had encountered an invincible foe.

Then, Yang Chen's fist arrived in a flash!

Carrying the weight of his fury, the fist smashed heavily into the centipede's body.

BOOM! BOOM!

Flames spread out, engulfing the centipede's entire body in a heartbeat and setting it ablaze.

Yang Chen's eyes shifted slightly.

Thunder exploded, and streaks of fine lightning arcs instantly traveled from the centipede's wounds, sweeping across its entire body.

Then, they erupted silently!

"Hiss!"

Deadly intent filled the centipede's tiny pupils.

It crashed heavily onto the ground, its life force extinguished.

The S-Class centipede had fallen!

Before the horrified eyes of the Number 98 ability users, it had been killed instantly by Yang Chen!

"Th-th-this..."

A powerhouse swallowed hard, stuttering as he stared at the centipede's lifeless corpse.

They had been struck by the centipede and knew its strength better than anyone; its physical body alone had nearly killed them, yet such a creature had been one-shotted by Yang Chen?

It was too terrifying!

At this moment, Zhang Shilei's pupils flickered, and he looked at the group of B-Class powerhouses with a mocking smile, saying, "Gentlemen, I happen to know that some of you have been dissatisfied with our captain for a long time now!"

As he spoke, he cast a meaningful glance at Kong Lingze.

Kong Lingze frowned slightly but remained silent.

He, too, had been shaken by Yang Chen's methods.

Yang Chen shook his arm, cast a light glance toward Zhang Shilei's side, and smiled before tucking the centipede's inner core into his Space Ring.

He then said, "Alright, let's continue deeper; it's not safe here anymore!"

"Yes!"
