“Xu Gu, what's wrong with you?”
“Why are you in a daze?”
“What did you see?”
The companions beside Xu Gu noticed the expression on his face and were filled with confusion. What could have surprised Xu Gu so much? One by one, they turned their heads and saw a terrifying stream of light rushing towards them from a distance.
At first, the stream of light was still far away, but in the blink of an eye, it landed next to them, exuding a chilling murderous intent.
“Boom!”
A pressure akin to a mountain crashed down, and in an instant, over a dozen people at the entrance of the valley felt a chill all over, as if they were being stared at by some ancient ferocious beast. That intense murderous aura felt almost tangible, pressing down on them. Under this cold killing intent, the entire group stood frozen, too scared to even move a muscle.
It was as if moving an inch would bring upon them total annihilation.
“What terrifying killing intent!”
A few talented individuals felt their momentum suppressed. Just as they prepared to snort coldly to break free from this murderous aura, they lifted their heads and met Qin Chen’s icy gaze. It felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over them, leaving them speechless in an instant.
Although Qin Chen had been far away, he had clearly heard their conversation. His face was extremely cold as he glared at them and said, “Are the disciples of my Da Wei Dynasty inside this valley?”
“Brat, why should we answer your questions? Who do you think you are?”
One late-stage Wu Zun snorted coldly upon hearing Qin Chen's impolite words. However, before he could finish speaking, Qin Chen had already shot a cold glance at him. Suddenly, a terrifying mental power flickered in his deep-set eyes.
Thud!
The martial artist felt as if he had plunged into a cold ice cellar, instantly falling into an abyss, his blood seemingly frozen. He collapsed to his knees with a thud, drenched in cold sweat, unable to move at all.
It was as if, at that moment, the Grim Reaper had locked onto him, and any slight movement would lead to instantaneous death.
“I'll ask again, are my Da Wei Dynasty's people inside here?” Qin Chen’s killing intent surged, and everyone could feel the chilling aura emanating from him.
The martial artist named Xu Gu was the first to regain his composure. Though he was equally shocked, he remained more calm than the others. After Qin Chen asked, he quickly bowed and replied, “Yes, Young Hero Qin, your friend is deeper inside the valley to the southeast. There are also over ten strong individuals from the Da Qian Dynasty, and Young Master Shen is among them…”
Before Xu Gu could finish his words, he noticed that Qin Chen had suddenly vanished, not even realizing how he entered the valley.
The cold aura that enveloped everyone also dissipated completely.
Phew!
Everyone let out a breath of relief, staring in shock at the place where Qin Chen had disappeared, their hearts racing.
What terrifying killing intent! What a dreadful aura! Although Qin Chen's cultivation level was not much higher than theirs, they could sense that if they had shown even the slightest disrespect earlier, he could have easily killed them in a single glance. That sharp killing intent seemed even more frightening than their own dynasty's Martial King ancestors.
How could a teenager in his teens exude such terrifying murderous intent?
A cold wind blew past, and everyone felt a chill run down their spines, their robes completely soaked.
“It's too terrifying! Why do I feel that Qin Chen's aura is scarier than Young Master Shen's?” Xu Gu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and murmured, “It seems the Da Qian Dynasty is in trouble. With Qin Chen being so terrifying, there will definitely be a brutal slaughter soon.”
The late-stage Wu Zun who had knelt in fear before Qin Chen now had a flushed face and gritted his teeth in anger, “Just him? He thinks he can bring trouble to Young Master Shen? Hmph, rushing in blindly is just seeking death.”
