"Please forgive us! We are ashamed of our actions. Please don't kill us!" Huang Hou instantly jumped down on the ground and started wailing.
Seeing this, Qin and others looked at each other with confusion.
"Heh! Die!"
The next moment, Huang Hou conquered massive qi on his blade and slashed towards Qin. But, as soon as it reached near him, Qin simply lifted his finger and blocked the attack without even flinching.
"Now, you've done it."
Qin smirked as his bloodthirsty smile reappeared on his face. He instantly rushed in front of the man and slashed his sword. A sharp red energy emerged out of the edge of his sword and slashed the man.
"Argh!"
Huang Hou fell few meters away by the power of the slash, and blood flow out of his chest. Although he didn't use his strongest attack, it was still insanely powerful considering that now he was Sword Seed Realm.
But, Huang Hou was also Origin Law Realm. Although he got attacked, he quickly rose to his feet. Knowing that he doesn't have a way out, he clenched his and released an immense amount of qi. His qi slowly turned into the shadow of a lion as it covered his body and transformed him.
The next second, he turned into a humanoid lion with claws like a lion but the body like a human with an exception of his face which was now half human and half lion. And, a tail also appeared behind him.
"Grrrr!"
Whoosh!
Huang Hou instantly dashes towards Qin and opened his hand. The immense amount of qi burst out of his claw and formed a massive shape of a claw when he slashed.
"Sword Cloak- Blinking Notch Slash!"
Qin raised his sword sheath while holding his sword hilt by another hand. Suddenly, his figure blurred and the next moment, he got behind Huang Hou as the claw got slashed into five figures and another slash appeared on his chest.
Splash!
"Paradise Strike!"
Huang Hou jumped up in the air and swings its body. Although he was wounded, he wasn't down for the good. As his body spun in the air, he stretched both of his arms and slashed down.
Ten fingers in his claws created ten deadly slashes of qi as they moved towards Qin.
"Sword Cloak- Chilling Night!"
Ka-cha!
The next moment, an icy vapor came out of his body and he disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already back to his initial position. The deadly slashes got frozen in mid-air and a slash appeared on his chest once again. But this time, the sword mark instantly got frozen, slowly freezing his blood.
"Your transformation is interesting but I am tired of waiting."
"Sword Cloak- Slaying Moon Piercing Heaven"
Splash!
His body once again moved at an insane speed as his sword slashes Huang Hou. Upon slashing, he appears behind the manager of Sky High Restaurant and places his sword on his neck. The manager was trying to escape without making them notice.
"If you move, you die."
When the manager heard his words, his body trembled. He instantly turned around and raised both of his hands.
"I surrender. Please do not kill me."
Clank!
Qin puts the sword back in his sheath and walks up to others while Lan Ming walks towards the manager and asks with a smile.
"Now, you are going to tell us everything about this."
Gulp!
The manager swallows his saliva and nods his head.
Ten Minutes Later,
"So, you are telling me that the reason why this Town is called Town of Beast has really something to do with the beast?" Lan Ming asked to confirm while placing his hand on his chin.
"Yes, there is a beast in the forbidden zone of our town. This beast is very powerful but it is also injured for some reason. Huang's family has been receiving his blood for centuries and giving him five Origin Law Realm once a decade."
"Because of his blood, Huang Hou's qi holds the power of a Lion and he can transform into a lion. We have speculated that the beast must be from Lion Race but we are unable to his cultivation. Even so, he is definitely stronger than a Battle King Realm."
"Previously, some of his ancestors have tried to kill it but all of them died and one of them was also Battle King Realm cultivator." The manager explains once again.
"Hmm! You can go now. We will call you if we need you." Lan Ming chases him away. The manager frighteningly left the room.
"So, what do you all think?" Lan Ming turned his head at others and asked.
"Should we really stick our nose in this matter?" Yue Bin asked. She had no intention to involve in someone's matter.
"Yeah! This is not our problem. Although I feel bad for this town, we have no reason to interfere. We can simply leave this town." Chu Xieyi also supported her point and spoke.
"Let's save them!" Suddenly, Lan Ming spoke and his words surprised everyone. From their perspective, Lan Ming wasn't someone who would try to save others for no reason.
"Yes, Brother Lan is correct. We should save them." As soon as Lan Ming spoke, Gou Yang supported him. Originally, he wanted to save this town but he didn't want others to get into trouble.
"Yes, I win." Qin suddenly raised his hands and shouted.
"Huh?" Everyone else except Lan Ming looked at him with confusion. They didn't understand why Qin got excited all of a sudden.
"Hehe! I made a bet with Lan Ming about this. I knew Gou Yang had the intention to save them but he was afraid of dragging us into this mess. So, he kept his mouth shut. But, I knew he would agree as soon as someone else wants to save this town."
"We had a bet if he reveals his intention within five seconds then I win but if he takes even a single more second, then Ming will win. Since he took only two seconds, I win." Qin laughs and clears their doubts.
"We decided to be like a family. If you have a problem, don't hesitate to tell us. Don't be afraid of dragging anyone into your mess. Qin has already involved us in his mess. I have already involved all of you in my mess."
"Xing has already involved us in his mess. Slowly, every one of us will have something that we alone can't face. That's why we need a family that can help. Remember, we are a family. If you have a problem, don't hesitate to tell us." Lan Ming patted Gou Yang's shoulder and spoke.
Hearing his words, everyone else smiled and nodded their heads.
"Brother Lan... I'm sorry for hiding this. Normally, cultivators do not care about the life and death of others. But, I am someone who walks on the path of Buddhism. I want to keep everyone safe and happy. Although I want to keep this town safe, I was afraid of making all of you unhappy." Gou Yang's eyes widened as he lowered his head and apologized.
"Don't think too much about happiness! We are happy being together." Qin stood up and walked next to him and slapped his back.
"Hehe! Y—y-you t—hink you can save….this town….. Don't be ridiculous..."
"No one can.... Save this town except for me...."
Huang Hou who was barely alive started laughing manically while his body was still on the ground and he couldn't even raise his head.
Splash!
But before he could laugh more, a sword pierced his head.
"Don't talk about shit when people are having a good time."
"You should've told him that before killing him." Lan Ming rubbed his forehead and spoke.
"Oh! Sorry, I got pissed by his laughter." Qin apologized as he walked towards them.
"Anyway, how should we do it? Wait for that beast or attack its lair?" Yue Bin sighed seeing their behavior and asked.
"Let's wait for him! Although we have decided to save them, we still do not know the potential danger that we might face. So, instead of rushing towards that beast, let's wait till that beast attacks us. We do not have anything to hurry." Lan Ming explained.
"Actually, we do have something to hurry." Yue Bin sighed as she closed her eyes for a moment and opened them with a sharp gaze, she continued.
"We have to help Luo Xue take her revenge."
"Huh? Why didn't you tell us sooner then?" Lan Ming opened his mouth wide and asked.
"Anyway, who is the enemy?" Chu Xieyi asked.
"The Great Lin Kingdom!" Yue Bin sharpened her gaze and answered.
Hearing her words, everyone except Liu Bing and Qin tilts their heads and opened their eyes wide.
"You mean the entire kingdom?" Chu Xieyi couldn't help but shout while slamming her hands on the table.
"Yep!" Yue Bin smile and nodded her head.
Hearing her solid response, Lan Ming's eyebrows twitched as he asked "And, you bothered to tell us that now?"
