"That quite a lot of people"

Sun Zhen saw at least more than 20 people and there were 2 cultivators inside that group.

"Young man, I know you have a great heart. Protecting innocent people, I get it but you will just going to get hurt for offending someone you shouldn't have"

The one spoke was a very beautiful lady in a sexy red cheongsam* while she stayed at the back of the group. She had the body that women wanted to have and men loved.

She used a red fan to block half of her face to show elegant she was yet Sun Zhen could see the smirk and the arrogance behind it.

"How about this? I will offer you a small deal. You leave this place and I won't look into this matter..." It was clear that she was threatening him.

"it's sound like a good deal..." Sun Zhen said.

"That great, now you just..."

"But I have to decline your offer. Instead, I will offer you this. Walk away with your men and I will spare you guys. If not, then we will just have go for the old fashion way"

The woman wasn't surprised by his answer and asked the 2 cultivators in front to handle him.

From what Sun Zhen saw, the cultivators were emiting Qi that wasnt stronger than mid stage Juqi so I fingured that they also only early stage at best.

One cultivator had a sword in his hand while others held a spear. They both showed something that he had been feeling almost every time he got into battle, Killing intent.

"I really don't want to kill people. But seriously, some people in this world are asshole"

Sun Zhen gave the command which summoned a water sword.

Shocked by the appearance of the weapon, both cultivators stopped and observed Sun Zhen.

"Where the kid got all that from"

"I don't know, but there are a small chance that he has a storage ring"

"Great. Seem like we got a big fish"

"Let split 50/50"

"Sure"

After analyzing the situation, the Spear guy charged at him while the other guy went to the left.

Seemed like they had done this a lot and they were using tactic against Sun Zhen.

Sun Zhen didn't back down and uses his commands.

Despite the speed of the guy with the spear, Sun Zhen easily dodged the spear and used his sword to chop it off.

The spear was cut down and the guy was surprised. The spear was made from a rare iron type from the deep mountain, tougher than normal iron and lighter to use.

Yet Sun Zhen cut it down with his water sword like a piece of wood.

"Luckily I also modified the water sword"

Sun Zhen had modified the power of "Cut" of the sword by 200% after the battle with the challenger. He didn't want to be always in defend mode.

Noticing that Sun Zhen wasn't paying attention, the Sword guy went for the back.

But the surprise attack didn't work as a shield appeared out of nowhere and blocked the attack.

Not only that, it was an iron shield and it was floating next to Sun Zhen.

"This guy has a lot of treasure" Both cultivators retreated as they never met a guy like Sun Zhen before.

The floating shield was created in order to give him mobility and defend at the same time but he had to sacrifice the shield transformation for the floating function.

"Shit, that sword chop off your spear, I doubt that my sword could handle that" He saw what Sun Zhen did and he didn't want to fight with the guy sword by sword way.

"Hey Lady, send the rest of our guys in here. We may as well need to fight him with numbers" The Spear guy called the woman in the back.

"Ain't he just only at early Juqi stage?" The woman signal the men to bring out their weapons.

"Quit asking. No need to attack in formation, just go straight for the kill"

The Sword man ordered the men as he wanted to distract Sun Zhen so he could have the chance to one shot kill.

"Men. If you guys could kill him before those 2 could, I will give you guys 5 days free in the luxurious brothel" The woman boosted their morality.

With a reward like that, they madly rushed to him with their weapons.

Sun Zhen saw that he didn't prepare for group fight and he wanted to make some distance. But the children behind him would get hurt so he had to stand his ground.

The first to attack him was the guy from the time Sun Zhen dragged. This guy seemed had forgotten about that he was a cultivator.

More and more those men attacked, Sun Zhen had to use the shield to defend against sharp weapons like a sword while using the Copper body to defend against blunt weapons.

He also chopped down the weapons but those guys won't give up and attacked him with those broken weapons or used rocks on the ground to throw at him.

He even had to look out for the 2 cultivators while defending himself, this caused him a lot of stress.

"If this goes one, I will get kill" Sun Zhen was at his limit, he didn't want to kill people but those guys were pushing their luck.

Suddenly, the Sword guy appeared behind and thrust his sword. It was a surprise attack again yet Sun Zhen didn't mind about it as he already in slow-motion mode.

"I am tired, this world is pushing me to kill. I hate it yet I have no choice" He then looked at the Sword guy, he took a deep breath and ready for the next moment to come.

The surprise attack was a failure as the Shield blocked.

When he was about to retreat, Sun Zhen was already beside the guy and use the water sword to chop of his hand.

Blood spraying everywhere while the Sword guy screamed out. The men around were shocked and retreat immediately.

They forgot that Sun Zhen was a cultivator as they were blinded by the reward and he didn't attack back but seeing blood, they knew that they fck up.

"SHIT, my arm"

The Sword guy couldn't believe that he got his arm chopped off, he always bullied people and sometimes they attacked back yet they didn't really harm him.

(In their world, they were like kings so they forgot about how deadly and unforgiving the world was...this was their mindset)

"You..." The guy angrily looking at Sun Zhen but he shut up as he saw the water sword.

It wasn't a water sword anymore, the water was now blood. It was a bloody sword and it was pointing at him.

"Leave now. If you guys stay, I will not hold back anymore" His blood sword and his threat was so effective that they all ran away while only the 2 cultivators and the woman stayed back.

"You don't know who are you messing with" The woman didn't give up and threaten Sun Zhen more.

He lazily looked at her then he rushed to her with his sword, the Spear guy wanted to interfere but the sight of his partner losing his arm told him that he should stay out of this.

When Sun Zhen was near and chopped his sword down to her. She was so afraid that she closed her eyes and screamed out for help.

But soon she noticed that there was no pain so she opened her eyes and saw the sword was near her neck and she could smell the blood from his sword.

"Leave" He said with a low voice.

She didn't dare to speak anymore and ran away like the rest. As for the 2 cultivators, they slowly walked away and regretted that they had met Sun Zhen.

Their pride as cultivators was shattered and stepped on today by a young man.

"Why I felt so calm and peaceful" Sun Zhen was having a strange feeling while looking at himself and the blood sword.

"Mister, have you scare them away?" The little girl walked to him why others looking out from the door.

"...Yeah, you guys are safe now" Sun Zhen unsummoned his sword and shield.

"Will they come back" the girl worriedly asked him.

"..."

He didn't know if they would come back or not but he didn't want to take his chance on that.

"You guys should come back to my place, I will carry your sister"

He didn't consider himself as a hero but he didn't like the feeling of leaving them here, defenseless and weak.

"Let go, we have to come back to my place before sundown"

They walked back into the house

*Somewhere else*

"Master Zuo, please forgive me. I try to get the girl but someone stopped us" The woman, who Sun Zhen scared off, was now bowing in front of a young man dress in green.

The man was handsome yet cultivators would tell you this guy was evil as his aura was so dim and black.

"No need to tell me more, your fate already decided the moment your men cut off her arm. I said to keep her body safe and not harmed but seemed like my warning wasn't enough" The man walked to her and held her neck.

"Mas..ter" She couldn't breath as he was lifting her up while gripping her neck.

Her face slowly went blue and her eye went up. About a few seconds later, she died with many regrets.

"Hum, at least your body has some use" The guy threw her to the ground.

Soon, a man dressed as a ninja appeared in the room.

"Investigate who stop my plan and make sure to handle the rest of her gang" The man gave the order.

The ninja nodded his head and disappeared.

After that, the man picked the body and went to the table. He then cast his Qi around it and a hidden passage appeared on the ground next to him.

He then walked down to the passage and about 2 minutes later, he reached a room.

The room was lighted by torches and it was about 5 meters wide and heights.

But what made it more creepy was the bodies laying around and some hanging on ropes.

Bodies of women and men, even children and old people were everywhere with some organs laying on tables and glasses bottles.

"At least I can finish the beauty collection" He then threw the body to the group of bodies that all women. They were very beautiful yet they died with horrifying faces and tragic fate.

With a smile of his face, he jumped onto that group of bodies and closed his eyes as he was sleeping on his "bed".

After he went to sleep, the sound of crying and rage screaming echoed around the room.

It belonged to those he killed and angry souls but the guy was peaceful sleeping like it was music to him.

But deep inside those sound, there was a message.

"Help...Help...HELP...Someone, please help us"
