Seeing Xiao Tianci kill Liu Xi without the slightest hesitation,

Jialie Bi and the three Grand Elders all shuddered instinctively. Then, the same disbelief that had filled Liu Xi's eyes appeared in theirs.

They, too, could not believe that Xiao Tianci truly dared to kill Liu Xi.

After all, befriending an alchemist would bring tremendous benefits to a cultivator's future development!

"Young Master Xiao, th-this Liu Xi cannot be killed!"

With an expression of concern for Xiao Tianci, Jialie Bi spoke in an earnest, persuasive tone.

"Whether he can be killed is up to me."

Xiao Tianci said coldly.

"Liu Xi's master is a third-tier alchemist. He treasures Liu Xi immensely. If he learns that Liu Xi died at Young Master Xiao's hands, I fear this matter will be difficult to settle in the future."

Jialie Bi continued his earnest persuasion.

Yet Xiao Tianci's expression did not change in the slightest.

He was merely a third-tier alchemist. If he dared to come, Xiao Tianci would not mind making him disappear as well!

Then, Xiao Tianci turned to look at Jialie Bi, who was still sprawled on the ground.

"I'll give you three final minutes. Either pick up a weapon and make one last stand, or say your last words."

All color instantly drained from Jialie Bi's face, and even his lips turned deathly pale.

He had not expected that even after humbling himself so completely, Xiao Tianci still refused to spare him!

After speaking to Jialie Bi, Xiao Tianci turned to the three elders of the Jialie Clan.

"You three get three minutes as well. Of course, if you decide to attack me, I do not mind if all three of you come at me together."

The three elders' expressions changed drastically as well.

Jialie Bi still wanted to beg for mercy.

However, Xiao Tianci had already stepped away and reached a chair in a corner of the hall, casually sitting down.

The two dishes before him had not yet been stained with blood or bits of flesh.

Xiao Tianci picked up a pair of unused chopsticks, took some food, and began eating slowly.

He had been active almost the entire night, and his body had expended a great deal of energy.

Though the Green Emperor Longevity Art possessed terrifying recovery abilities, Xiao Tianci still wanted something to eat.

Seeing this, the last trace of hope in Jialie Bi's heart vanished without a trace.

Despair that ran to his very bones surfaced in his heart.

Could it be that their Jialie Clan was truly going to be destroyed today?

Perhaps driven to the brink, Jialie Bi suddenly became somewhat frenzied.

A ruthless look appeared on his face as he turned toward the other three elders.

"I'm telling you, at a time like this, you three old men should stop holding back. Xiao Tianci obviously will not let us go. Today, only one side can survive. If we do not kill Xiao Tianci today, then we will be the ones who die!"

Jialie Bi moved close to the three elders and spoke coldly.

The three elders exchanged glances, and ruthless looks emerged on all their faces.

After all, none of those who could become elders were simple people. Since playing the victim had failed, they naturally had to fight to the death.

"Xiao Tianci's sword qi may be powerful, but it must consume a great deal of energy. Even if he is not at the end of his rope now, he cannot be far from it. If we attack together, we should have a chance."

The Grand Elder narrowed his eyes and spoke.

As soon as the Grand Elder said this, everyone's eyes lit up.

Clearly, they found the Grand Elder's words quite reasonable.

"Right. He has even started eating to replenish himself. He is obviously already at his limit!"

The Second Elder chimed in as well.

Hope immediately blazed in their eyes.

As long as they killed Xiao Tianci, their Jialie Clan would have a chance to rise again!

"You have two minutes left. Have you made up your minds?"

Xiao Tianci swallowed the magical beast meat in his mouth and spoke casually.

At this moment, Xiao Tianci had his back to Jialie Bi and the others, so he did not even glance at them.

The four exchanged looks and saw the intense killing intent in one another's eyes.

"Kill!"

At the signal from their eyes, Jialie Bi suddenly shouted!

Four figures erupted with the terrifying aura of Da Dou Shi, instantly crossing the distance and arriving behind Xiao Tianci.

Four arms—some fists, some palms—struck toward the back of Xiao Tianci's head at the same time!

"Hmph."

Xiao Tianci let out a cold laugh.

Under his divine sense, Jialie Bi and the others had no secrets whatsoever!

A flash of sword light passed by.

Jialie Bi and the other three clutched their throats and collapsed weakly.

The intense killing intent in their eyes remained frozen there.

Thus, the Jialie Clan's four strongest experts died!

Xiao Tianci slowly rose to his feet.

He casually grabbed a piece of white cloth and wiped his mouth.

Then, the white cloth drifted down, covering Jialie Bi's unclosed eyes perfectly.

"Heaven's sins may be forgiven, but one's own sins bring no escape. Originally, your Jialie Clan could have struggled on for a while longer."

As his light words fell, Xiao Tianci's figure had already vanished from the hall.

Only the corpses scattered across the ground remained to tell of what had just occurred.

After killing the four Da Dou Shi, Xiao Tianci moved through the Jialie Clan estate like a ghost.

Having learned his lesson from Jialie Ao, Xiao Tianci decided to uproot the problem completely and leave no hidden danger behind.

Under his divine sense, nowhere in the entire Jialie Clan could hide.

Everyone who fled in panic, whether Jialie Clan members or guards, was effortlessly caught by Xiao Tianci, then had their lives ended by a single strand of sword qi.

Against every person, Xiao Tianci never needed to draw a second sword.

He remained busy for quite some time.

Only then did Xiao Tianci finally stop again.

By now, aside from Xiao Tianci himself, there was no one left alive in the Jialie Clan!

Yet a look of astonishment appeared on Xiao Tianci's face.

Because when he had inadvertently glanced at the system panel just now, he discovered that his Experience Points had suddenly increased by a great deal!

"So killing people can earn Experience Points too." Xiao Tianci clicked his tongue.

Who would have thought there were so many different ways to gain Experience Points?

"Ding, congratulations to the host for comprehending the true meaning of survival: if others do not offend me, I will not offend them; but if others offend me, I will surely offend them!" "Received one Golden Draw!"

The system's voice suddenly sounded beside Xiao Tianci's ear.

"Good lord, there's actually a Golden Draw for this too!"

Joy filled Xiao Tianci's heart.

The Jialie Clan truly was his lucky star.

He had merely come here for a walk, yet not only had he gained so many Experience Points, he had even received a Golden Draw!
