The dozen or so people surrounded the five with an arrogant attitude.
“Cough cough…” A young man’s voice sounded: “You’re Tiger Wolf Mercenary is so despicable, you even used drugs on us.”
From the man’s coughing, one could tell that he was severely injured.
“Haha, as long as there’s money to earn, what’s the matter with being despicable?” The leading Sword Sovereign large man laughed.
He looked at the beautiful woman beside Lou Mu Ting and said: “We want your woman too. If you understand, then hand over that Tier 8 Demonic Beast, then we can leave you a whole corpse.”
“You’re dreaming.” Lou Mu Ting roared angrily, swinging his sword, wanting to slash at the large man.
It was only a pity that not only was he drugged but was also seriously injured by a sneak attack. This strike wasn’t even released when he felt as if the Elemental Energy of his entire body couldn’t be mobilised at all.
“Do you feel powerless right now?” The large man rubbed his chin and continued with a wretched smile: “Don’t worry, we won’t kill you easily right now. After all, we’ve got to wait until you see us play with your woman before you die right?”
“You deserve death!” Lou Mu Ting stabbed his body with his sword and his eyes were completely bloodshot, but he felt a little despair in his heart.
His companions were all poisoned and on the ground right now, not only unable to move, but they didn’t even have strength to speak.
The big man swept his gaze over the panic-stricken woman behind Lou Mu Ting, licked his dry lips and ordered his subordinates: “Go seize Lou Mu Ting and bring him over. Let him watch how I enjoy the woman he’s been taking care of for so long.”
“Yan Cheng, if you dare to touch a single hair on her today, I’ll definitely slice you up into thousands of pieces.” Lou Mu Ting closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was a cold killing intent.
He attempted to unravel the power that was sealed in his dan’tian little by little.
“Haha, you still dare to threaten lao’zi right now.” The big man snorted and spat, then walked to Lou Mu Ting with a fierce look, “Lao’zi will turn you to trash first.”
He felt a dangerous aura from Lou Mu Ting right now. As a mercenary who lived on the tip of a knife all year round, he always believed in this sort of feeling, because it allowed him to avoid countless dangers.
Although Lou Mu Ting was now a lamb that he could slaughter at any moment, he couldn’t truly give the other party a chance to take revenge.
The large man’s eyes sharpened, and with his hands as claws, Elemental Energy spread all over his left hand, and he suddenly grabbed towards Lou Mu Ting’s dan’tian.
[PENG!!] Suddenly, a light wind blew past and the large man with the Sword Sovereign cultivation base flew upside down and smashed heavily onto the wall.
“Who do you want to turn into trash?” A sullen voice sounded, like a messenger of death in the cold night.
The people in the dark alley all looked towards the entrance and saw a stunning woman in a red dress walking out of the shadows.
Lou Mu Ting’s eyes filled with joy when he saw the person coming, then it changed into worry: “Mu Yan, they use poison powder, be careful.”
“Big brother, don’t worry, it’s just a few stinky cockroaches.”
Lou Mu Yan was furious when she saw Lou Mu Ting clutching his chest, injured. With a flash, she turned into dozens of shadows and moved to his side.
As soon as she landed, the more than a dozen people besieging Lou Mu Ting fell to the ground in pain, looking as if they couldn’t breathe.
“Wh-What did you do to us?” The leader looked at Lou Mu Yan in horror, his voice hoarse, and his entire body felt as if there were countless ants crawling around, painful and itchy, and he even felt that he had even more difficulty breathing.
Lou Mu Yan gave him a disdainful look and said coldly: “Letting you all experience the feeling of dying slowly after being poisoned.”
“You— You…” The large man wanted to continue to say something, but it felt as if someone was chocking his neck and he could no longer make any sound. He was just desperate and frightened and couldn’t even beg for mercy.
Lou Mu Yan was too lazy to look at them again, so she turned around and took out a Grade 4 Spirit Cleansing Pill for Lou Mu Ting to consume.
“Big brother, are you alright?”
She supported Lou Mu Ting and took his pulse and found that there was a force running around chaotically in his dan’tian right now. She immediately channelled green Spiritual Energy in to suppress the force.
Lou Mu Ting felt a lot more comfortable after taking Lou Mu Yan’s pill. The power of the seal was also suppressed by her, and he said: “Little Sister, I’m fine.”
After discovering the Elemental Energy inside could now be mobilised, he pointed to the four people on the ground and said: “You should detoxify them first.”
Lou Mu Yan nodded, walked over, and fed a Spirit Cleansing Pill to each of them.
“This isn’t a place to talk, let’s leave first.” Her ears twitched and found that many people were rushing towards this dark alley. Her brows furrowed as she said.
Lou Mu Ting looked worriedly at the four who still hadn’t recovered and said: “They’re my companions.”
Lou Mu Yan instructed to Bing Ji on her shoulder: “Carry them and follow.”
Bing Ji turned into an elegant scholar-like man and nodded: “Yes, Owner.”
Lou Mu Yan grabbed Lou Mu Ting and disappeared into the dark alley in a flash. Bing Ji glanced at the four of them in disgust, and with a wave of his sleeves, he swept them all up and also vanished in place.
Not long after they left, a group of people dressed in clothes similar to the large man and the others walked into the dark alley.
When they saw the large man and the others lying on the ground with a purple face and had lost their lives, they were all startled.
“Go and take a look.” The gentle-looking man in the lead said to the person next to him with a grim expression.
“Yes, Leader.”
The man carefully walked over to the large man and the others, took a deep breath then checked them and said: “They all died of poisoning.”
“How long has it been since they were poisoned?” The feminine man asked.
“Not quite an incense stick of time.” The person replied.
The feminine man narrowed his eyes and said: “Do you know what the poison is? Or who killed them?”
The Physician checked the corpses of the more than a dozen people on the ground again and said solemnly: “The other party’s method of poisoning is very clever and ruthless. I can’t tell what the poison is, and I also can’t judge how they were poisoned.”
“Even you can’t figure it out?” The feminine man’s expression sank, and he turned to another person and asked: “Who were they chasing before?”
“They were chasing Mu Feng Mercenary, but those people had already been poisoned by Yan Cheng earlier, so it should be someone else who killed them.” A person holding a feather fan like a military adviser came out to analyse.
“Chase. They couldn’t have run far.” The feminine man immediately ordered without hesitation.
“Yes.”
Lou Mu Yan didn’t take Lou Mu Ting and the others to the yard where the Eight Extremes Sect were, but found a quiet and remote inn to stay in.
She helped Lou Mu Ting onto an armchair in the room, and Bing Ji also brought the other four into the room.
The four also regained their strength to speak and walk right now.
The only woman among them walked up to Lou Mu Ting and asked anxiously: “Mu Ting, are you alright?”
Lou Mu Yan raised her head and looked at the woman who was speaking. She was dressed in white and had an above average appearance, pure and gentle.
Lou Mu Ting looked at the woman softly and said: “Luo Yin, I’m fine, how about you?”
The woman bit her lip, her eyes filled with mist and the smile she wore was guilt-ridden, “I’m fine.
Lou Mu Ting appeared to be relieved, then a sunny and warm smile appeared on his handsome face, looking at Lou Mu Yan as he introduced to the woman, “This is my little sister, Lou Mu Yan.”
