As Qin Chen and the others just stood firm, a streak of light quickly swept over from a distance. It was a master from the Konghai Clan. Upon seeing Qin Chen standing amidst the meteorite cluster with two others, the master from the Konghai Clan immediately focused his gaze, stopping in his tracks, scanning the surroundings warily while sizing up You Qianxue and Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng.
After sensing the cultivation levels of the two, he did not lower his guard but instead spread out his divine sense, sweeping across the entire meteorite cluster in an instant. Upon finding no one else apart from Qin Chen and his companions, a hint of scornful laughter appeared on his face.
"You brat, not only did you not run away, but you also called two accomplices here."
The peak Saint Master from the Konghai Clan said with a cold laugh, his tone dripping with disdain.
He had already surveyed this meteorite cluster carefully, and aside from Qin Chen and his companions, there was no one else. Among them, the strongest, Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng, was merely a late-stage Saint Master, while the other woman was surprisingly at the same level as Qin Chen, only a mid-stage peak Saint Master.
Did this guy really think that with the three of them, he could deal with him?
"This woman has a nice figure; I wonder what she looks like. But rest assured, offending me means that even if she's ugly, after capturing her, I will have my fun before killing her, because no one can act arrogantly in front of me."
The peak Saint Master from the Konghai Clan sneered coldly, "By the way, I won't kill you right away. Instead, I will toy with this woman in front of you until she meets a tragic end, then record it into a Saint Origin Ball to sell outside. I believe this woman will quickly become famous in the Void Marketplace."
"You seek death!"
Upon hearing this, Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng's gaze turned icy. The audacity of this guy to insult the Young Mistress ignited endless fury within him. Suddenly, a battle knife appeared in his hand, slashing down at the peak Saint Master from the Konghai Clan.
Boom! The blade aura surged, soaring into the sky as if it wanted to split the void itself. The terrifying and sharp blade aura erupted forth, instantly reaching the peak Saint Master from the Konghai Clan. His gaze tightened as a brilliant blue light suddenly illuminated his right hand, and a strangely shaped trident appeared in his grasp, violently slashing down at the blade light from Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng.
With a loud explosion, the Saint Origin shattered, and the blade aura from Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng exploded apart. A wave of terrifying blue Saint Origin swept out, causing Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng to grunt and take a step back, his face growing somewhat pale.
He felt a grave sense of seriousness. Is this what a peak Saint Master is like?
Indeed, formidable! One strike shattered his attack. Although he was merely testing the waters, it was evident how powerful the opponent was.
"Is that all you can do? You dare to aim for me?"
The peak Saint Master from the Konghai Clan, having shattered Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng's attack, felt his heart completely relax.
Initially, he had some doubts upon seeing Qin Chen and his companions linger here. In his view, the strongest among them was only a late-stage Saint Master, and they should have fled as far as they could instead of waiting here for death.
But who would have thought that Qin Chen would actually stay here? Externally, he feigned disdain, but internally, he remained very cautious. Anyone who could navigate through the Void Tide Sea was not simple. His earlier insults were meant to provoke them into action, to see where Qin Chen got his confidence.
However, after their exchange, he felt a sense of relief because he could sense that Dao Wang Mu Zhifeng's strength was extremely powerful—far more than an ordinary late-stage Saint Master. Perhaps this was their true confidence, thinking that with such an extraordinary late-stage Saint Master, they could resist him. Unfortunately, they underestimated the peak Saint Master and him.
