The people who followed Lou Mu Yan and her group quietly saw that the two parties were about to fight, so they immediately hid their figures to watch the battle.
Maybe they would even be able to perform a ‘when the snipe and clam grapple, the fisherman benefits’.
“I’ll deal with this chick, you all go quickly kill the other people.” The tall, big man gave the four of them a look, and a long, scarlet sabre appeared in his hand.
The other four nodded and looked at Lou Mu Bai and the others with unkind gazes.
Yun Zi Mo faced the Sword Emperor, Yun Lan and Chi Yi Xuan faced the yellow-clothed woman, Lou Mu Bai faced the feminine man and Fu Chen faced the last, pink-clothed woman.
The battle was imminent.
The tall, big man didn’t have the heart of showing pity and tender care for jade. He channelled Elemental Energy into his scarlet, long sabre and swung it down towards Lou Mu Yan.
The red sword light was dazzling in the sky, turning into a circular arc that flew out, stabbing straight towards Lou Mu Yan’s heart.
Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were filled with coldness, but she didn’t dodge. She pulled out a golden soft sword from her waist, channelled a trace of Spiritual Energy with the green sea of mist into it, then waved it gently.
A round of golden crescent moons poured out like a rich display of lights, merging with the scarlet sword light.
Instantly, a dazzling light burst out from within the entire forest. The energy from the collision between the two spread very far away as the surrounding trees broke and collapsed one after another.
The scarlet sword light was annihilated in the light while the golden crescent moon burst through the air, heading directly towards the tall, big man.
After the dazzling light passed, Lou Mu Yan’s face remained indifferent, and her clothes were in perfect condition while the tall, big man opposite was in ragged clothes with a trace of blood left on his mouth.
His eyes carried horror, “Saint— Saint Tool. You actually have a Saint Tool.”
The reason why Lou Mu Yan used her Natal Magic Tool was because, one, she wanted to try its power again, and two, she wanted to fight quickly and finish quickly.
“So what if it’s true. It’s a pity you don’t have the life to enjoy using it.” Lou Mu Yan sneered when she saw the greed in the other’s eyes.
She turned her attention to the rear and saw that Lou Mu Bai and the other’s battles weren’t that easy to win. After all, the opponent was from a medium-sized kingdom so they couldn’t possibly not have some trump cards.
“Mo Yan, go and help, battle quickly, finish quickly, more people are coming towards us.” Although Lou Mu Yan’s Mental Energy was still dormant, but she could still feel the auras approaching.
“Mm.” Mo Yan’s indifferent eyes didn’t even reveal the slightest fighting intent. In his eyes, those few people who were about to become a few corpses were nothing to worry about.
[ROAR!!] A Demonic Beast roar resounded throughout the forest.
With the pressure of a Royal Race Demonic Beast spreading throughout the dense forest, his roar contained a sonic attack and those who were peeping all felt dizzy.
The several people in the battle circle were also distracted by this sonic attack. His body suddenly grew several times larger and the flame-like mark on his forehead appeared lifelike.
He leapt up and landed straight in front of Lou Mu Bai. Then he stretched out his claws, slapped, and the currently confused, feminine man flew out backwards, spurting a few mouthfuls of blood.
Immediately after that, he swept his tail and it landed heavily on the flying body of the other party. His heart and lungs were shattered, and the feminine man immediately lost his aura after falling to the ground.
The others woke from the sound waves and what entered their eyes was the appearance of the man falling to the ground and bleeding to death. They all revealed panic.
In just a few breaths of time, that woman’s Demonic Beast actually killed one of their people.
The several people suddenly had the intention of retreating. Body-refining methods were nice, but they also needed to have a life to take it.
The tall, big man’s heart trembled. Although he had some means, but the other party had a Saint Tool, and also such a powerful Tier 6 Demonic Beast. He could only escape.
Seeing the tall, big man looking anxious, moving as if to retreat, with a thought, Lou Mu Yan’s golden longsword was divided into ten small swords, and she mouthed a few words.
With a point of her fingers, several Talisman Seals condensed in mid-air, flew to the very top, then finally formed a jade-coloured talisman belt, surrounding everyone within the battle circle.
“Quick!” She let out a soft exclamation. The ten flying swords hummed, lined up in a horizontal line, then flew towards the tall, big man who had already turned and fled towards the deep forest.
Feeling the threat from the rear, the tall, big man took out a big cauldron to block him from behind. His figure dashed out but was then heavily bounced back.
“You want to escape in the Array I arranged? Go die.” Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were sharp. The ten flying swords penetrated the cauldron and shot straight at the tall, big man.
The man’s pupils constricted and immediately crushed a transparent ball of light in his hand. A stream of light flew towards the deep mountains in the distance, disappearing instantly.
“Don’t kill me… I surren…” The tall, big man’s voice stuck half-way, his eyes opened wide, filled with disbelief.
How could this be? He, a Sword Master at Initial-Phase Sword Monarch was actually killed by a woman at Middle-Phase Sword King this quickly. He really shouldn’t have tried to snatch the keys to the rooms at the beginning. His regretful expression dissipated little by little, together with his aura.
“Boss.”
The pink-clothed woman was also slapped to death by Mo Yan, while the smiling man and the yellow-clothed woman revealed terror in their eyes when they saw that their leader was killed by Lou Mu Yan.
Wasn’t this woman’s combat power too exaggerated. The two looked at each other, then ran for their lives in different directions.
But how could Yun Zi Mo and the others, along with Mo Yan, let them escape? Mo Yan chased the yellow-clothed woman, waved his paw in the air, then a black, plum blossom-shaped1 palm print slapped directly at the woman’s back.
“PU!!” The woman spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, then sped up her steps to escape, but was blocked by Lou Mu Yan’s jade-coloured talisman belt.
“You can’t kill me. We’re from the Yi Si Empire and there’s still a team of people who are much stronger than us. If you kill me, they won’t let you all go.” The woman turned around and looked at Lou Mu Yan and the others, saying, unreconciled.
The smiling man was already surrounded and killed by Yun Zi Mo and the others. Lou Mu Yan walked to the yellow-clothed woman as if leisurely strolling through a courtyard, raised an eyebrow and said: “Aren’t you going to peel my face off to make a human skin mask?”
The yellow-clothed woman had long lost her previous imposing manner. Her body softened and said pitifully and softly: “I just wanted to threaten you a bit earlier. As long as you guys don’t kill me, I’ll listen to anything you all say.”
Bing Ji shook the feathers on his body and said with a look of disgust: “Owner, this ugly woman is so disgusting, hurry up and kill her.”
“What did your leader crush just now?” Lou Mu Yan looked at Bing Ji amusedly, then looked at the woman and asked—though she had a guess in her heart.
“It’s an Array Ball that reports messages. As long as it’s crushed, the message can be sent out. He’s reporting the message to our other team of people.” The yellow-clothed woman hated inwardly, but still said with softness and meekness.
Lou Mu Yan lowered her head and pondered for a little, then walked to the yellow-clothed woman, pinched her chin, and fed a drug into her mouth.
“What did you give me to eat?” The woman wanted to dig out the drug, but the drug melted in her mouth the moment it entered. She looked at Lou Mu Yan with a trace of fear in her eyes and asked.
Lou Mu Yan blinked and said with a smile: “Good stuff.”
Then she ignored the yellow-clothed woman and looked sharply at a part of the dense forest not far away. If those people dared to come up to seek death, she wouldn’t mind also ‘sending them off’.
Seeing that there weren’t any movements, she called to Yun Zi Mo and the others, then quickly left the place, leaving behind the currently terrified, yellow-clothed woman with constantly changing expressions and no confidence in heart.
“Lou Mu Yan, why didn’t you kill her?” Fu Chen asked in confusion after walking for a while.

1‘Plum blossom shape’ is usually how the Chinese describe the paw pad prints of cats or big cats (like tigers etc, or our cute little Mo Yan). Cute.
