Chapter 18: Of Course, I Killed Them All

"Next," Su Lang muttered as he gently laid down the guard's corpse and moved towards the next potential guard location based on Cai Feng's information.

He decided to search the bodies after the battle, knowing that this was the prime time for assassination and he couldn't afford to miss it.

Swiftly, Su Lang located and eliminated the second, third, and fourth guards, dispatching these thugs with ease.

Soon, he found himself without any more members of the Broken Axe Hunting Group to kill.

"Did I really kill them all? That can't be right!" Su Lang muttered in disbelief. Just then, he heard strange noises.

"A woman's voice? And more than one…" Su Lang raised an eyebrow and moved toward the sound.

After killing another patrolling member, Su Lang arrived at a house. The women's voices were coming from inside.

Even through the door and windows, Su Lang could sense the sordid atmosphere within.

Based on Cai Feng's earlier mutterings, Su Lang didn't need to guess what was inside—women imprisoned for the Broken Axe Hunting Group members' pleasure.

"These guys are rotten to the core. Killing them all wouldn't be wrong," Su Lang murmured, raising an eyebrow. Then, he kicked open the door.

"Ah!!"

"What the hell, who disturbed my fun?"

"Which bastard is this? You nearly scared me limp!"

Inside, the scene was appalling.

Three naked men turned angrily towards the door, while seven or eight women screamed in terror, their eyes filled with numbness and fear.

The leader, a burly man with floral tattoos, was at the high level of Body Tempering, while the other two were at the mid-level.

One of the mid-level warriors was Dou Zhong, the one who had beaten Su Lang's former self to death!

"Well, sorry to interrupt you three gentlemen," Su Lang said, scanning the nearly golden figure inside him and stepping into the room with a playful smile.

"Who are you?"

"He's not one of us. He has no ear tattoo."

"Who are you, and how did you get in here? Where are our men?"

The three men pushed the terrified women aside and stared at Su Lang warily.

"Your men? Of course, I killed them all! As for who I am…" Su Lang's face twisted into a cold smile. "Dou Zhong, don't you recognize me?"

"You… you're Su Lang!?" Dou Zhong's eyes widened in horror. "No, yesterday we beat you half to death! You were just an ordinary person. How are you here now?"

"I'm getting tired of these questions," Su Lang sighed, rolling his eyes. He turned to the tattooed leader. "Tell me where the base's treasures are. If I'm satisfied, I might let you live."

"Let me live?" The tattooed man sneered. "Are you out of your mind?"

"I'm done talking," Su Lang said, shaking his head. He drew his sword and charged.

"That speed… High-level Body Tempering!"

Dou Zhong's eyes nearly popped out. He couldn't believe someone could advance from an ordinary person to high-level Body Tempering in just one day.

"It's three against one. Attack!" The tattooed man scoffed, grabbing a large blade and rushing at Su Lang.

The women watched in terror, knowing that if Su Lang died quickly, it would be a mercy compared to falling back into the hands of Dou Zhong and his cronies.

"Disgusting!" Su Lang muttered, grimacing at the sight of the three naked men charging at him.

The tattooed man's large blade came down ferociously.

"Hahaha, die!" Dou Zhong and the other man, holding curved knives, aimed at Su Lang's shoulders with malicious grins.

"System, break through!" Su Lang whispered, feeling the surge of energy. He brought his sword down in a vertical slash.

A violent wave of breakthrough energy erupted. Su Lang's body felt scorching hot, and an immense force surged through his sword.
