Chapter 1131: Peeping (Please Subscribe)_1

Because of the dire state of that demon cultivator before, a hint of fear emerged in the hearts of the other demon cultivators...

Not only was the man before them incredibly powerful, but he could also use space to move, making it impossible for them and their ilk to be his match!

Not to mention taking treasures from these three people, they would be lucky if they could preserve their own lives!

With this thought, one of the demon cultivators swallowed nervously and said in a trembling voice, "We... we are just lying in wait here, no one sent us!"

Another demon cultivator beside him tightened his eyes for no reason and added, "That's... that's right, we have carried out numerous ambushes here, but we never expected, never expected to encounter a powerful being like you... like you!"

"We beg you to spare us, we absolutely will not appear before your eyes again!"

"Yes, yes, we promise not to appear! We beseech you to show magnanimity and let us go,"

In order to survive, what was the value of face?

Xu Sheng saw the surge of nervousness in the demon cultivators' eyes and his voice gradually became icy, "Really, no one sent you? Lying to me won't end well!"

He paused, then continued, "By the way, you should know about the Soul Searching Technique, right? Fortunately, I am somewhat acquainted with it."

Having said that, a terrifying pressure burst forth from his body and pressed directly towards those in front of him...

In an instant, these demon cultivators felt as if they could hardly move within this range! It was as though if they dared to step out of line, the next thing to fall would be their own heads!

At this moment, they had only one feeling in their hearts!

Were they the demon cultivators?

Or was the man before them the true demon cultivator?

The latter even knew the Soul Searching Technique, which was a clear threat to them all!

Meanwhile, Duanmu Lian, who was trapped in the formation, said somewhat helplessly, "Before Xu Sheng went out, couldn't he have undone this formation?"

After speaking, Duanmu Lian gripped her personal sword and violently slashed towards the surrounding formation, only to see the sword strike creating a few ripples before having no effect at all...

Zhou Qingruo glanced at her and said indifferently, "Don't waste your effort, these formations were set up by the demon cultivators together. It would be strange if they could be broken!"

Being trapped in the formation was actually no different; after all, there was no danger!

Now, what she was most concerned about was why those demon cultivators ahead had ambushed them!

What was their purpose?

The ugly cheeks of the Cloud Devouring Beast beside her looked somewhat vacant as it spoke continuously in its mind, "This kid is really outrageously strong, even stronger than any Immortal Monarch I've seen! Against these demon cultivators, it's a complete crushing force!"

It wondered if following this man would present an opportunity...

...

The faces of these demon cultivators were cloudy and uncertain, feeling a bit suffocated inside. They really should not have just happened to encounter Xu Sheng and others here, looking to plunder!

Unexpectedly, they were labeled as such, which even as demon cultivators, was quite irritating!

However, they had no choice but to suppress their dissatisfaction and urgently explain to Xu Sheng, "Great being, it's truly no one who sent us! We just happened to be here."

"Great being, if you really do not believe us, you can use the Soul Searching Technique on me. If there's a shred of falsehood in what we say, then kill them all! I will not protest!"

"We have no intention of becoming enemies with you, our purpose was merely to plunder some treasures, we implore you to spare us!"

"If you agree to spare us, we are willing to offer up our Storage Cosmos Bag!"

From their words, it could be heard that, for the sake of their lives, these demon cultivators no longer cared about their own dignity!

While Xu Sheng glanced at them, seeing that their expressions under the pressure of his Divine Power did not seem feigned, he thought to himself, "Is this really just a coincidence?"

However, the next moment, Xu Sheng's dark pupils suddenly intensified, and the spreading Divine Power seemed to have sensed something, as the corners of his mouth imperceptibly lifted into a curve...

It seems that things were never that simple, but this could be an opportunity to turn their plans against them...

With an idea in mind, Xu Sheng revealed an innocuous smile, "Fine, I agree to your terms, now hand over your Storage Cosmos Bags!"

Upon hearing this, the demon cultivators' faces all showed delight...

Although it was a bit painful to part with their treasures, at least their lives were spared!

Without hesitation, each person carefully took out their Storage Cosmos Bag and cautiously tossed it to Xu Sheng...

Terrified that after taking the bags, he might still kill them!

Xu Sheng took the Storage Cosmos Bags and said indifferently, "Get lost!"

The demon cultivators, upon hearing this, felt a sigh of relief and turned around, running for their lives as if they wished they had an extra pair of legs!

In just a few seconds, the figures of these demon cultivators had completely disappeared...

Xu Sheng merely glanced in the direction they fled and said lightly, "Think you can escape?"

After uttering those words, he shifted his gaze to a certain spot in the space...

Because there, a demon cultivator who had concealed all their spiritual power was secretly observing!

When he realized Xu Sheng was looking his way, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Not good!! I've been spotted!!"

But a sliver of hope in his heart made him not leave immediately...

Instead, he prayed that Xu Sheng's look had been merely casual...

This calm act, however, evoked a look of admiration in Xu Sheng's eyes...

After taking another quick glance, Xu Sheng swiftly averted his gaze and walked towards Zhou Qingruo and Duanmu Lian, who were trapped in the formation...

Seeing Xu Sheng shift his attention, the demon cultivator hidden in the shadows felt the mental pressure on him ease significantly...

That one glance had nearly exposed him!

Fortunately, he had resisted the urge to run!

Thinking of this, he thought to himself, "I never expected that lord's premonition to be true, I must go back and report!"

With that, he quickly left without releasing any spiritual power...

...

After Xu Sheng casually destroyed the formation, he immediately sensed that the demon cultivator lurking in the darkness had left...

He raised an eyebrow and thought to himself, "Gone to send a message, have you?"

That demon cultivator could never imagine that Xu Sheng not only had discovered him but could also completely control his every move!

Especially since... every word previously spoken resonated clearly in Xu Sheng's ears...

As soon as Duanmu Lian was free from the formation, her first words were laced with confusion as she asked, "Xu Sheng, why did you let those demon cultivators go?"

Before Xu Sheng could answer, Zhou Qingruo, who was beside her, spoke first, "There was someone observing us just now! Xu Sheng probably didn't want to startle the snake by hitting the grass!"

She didn't have Divine Power, and her Spiritual Power was weakened by the formation, but she had merely used her naked eyes to spot the demon cultivator hiding in the darkness...

Surprise flickered in Xu Sheng's eyes as he nodded and said, "Yes! Just as Qingruo mentioned, someone was spying on us. As for those demon cultivators that ran away, they're probably nothing but bones by now!"

He hadn't broken his promise, after all, what he had said was to "get lost"!

Since it was about leaving, he couldn't be blamed for what happened next!
