Chapter 2258: Big Fish Eat Xiao Yu (Fourth Update)

The Hu Da in front of us should have been just an ordinary disciple of the Cold Corpse Valley!

The cultivation was just a little stronger than Zhu Xiaoqi herself.

But now.

He killed the Valley Master of the Cold Corpse Valley, Song Gong, who was at the Fake Core Realm cultivation!

And it was an instant kill!

At the same time… there was also that legendary flying sword!

All signs indicated that this Hu Da was very likely someone disguising as him!

Or perhaps someone formidable who had been lurking in the Cold Corpse Valley all along!

“Does it really matter who I am? It’s not important, is it?”

Lin Tian grinned, shook his head, and said.

Upon hearing this.

Zhu Xiaoqi was stunned.

Then she took a deep breath and looked at Lin Tian with some anticipation: “You won’t kill me?”

“That depends on your behavior!”

Lin Tian coldly smiled, sizing up the other party’s figure, and said: “If you don’t behave, I might just have to destroy you, enjoy a bit of earthly pleasure, and then kill you!”

“I… I’ll behave!”

Zhu Xiaoqi’s pretty face changed, and she quickly replied.

“Then hurry inside and bring everything you can use!”

Lin Tian pointed towards the depths of the great hall, speaking in a deep voice.

Zhu Xiaoqi dared not slack off, quickly got up, and scampered inside.

At this moment.

She was no longer afraid or scared of Lin Tian.

Previously, Lin Tian kept saying he would destroy her!

There were all sorts of threats along the way!

But as it turned out.

In that dungeon, he released the senior sister and Brother Cao!

Though he didn’t release her, up till now, he hadn’t harmed her in the slightest!

Who exactly is he?

Zhu Xiaoqi’s mind was racing with many thoughts as she dashed into Song Gong’s secret room in the depths of the great hall.

Upon seeing the pile of things there, she was stunned.

“So many treasures, he doesn’t want any?”

Zhu Xiaoqi widened her beautiful eyes, exclaiming in surprise.

But she quickly came to terms with it.

Considering Lin Tian’s power, these low-level treasures perhaps didn’t even catch his eye!

After packing everything up, Zhu Xiaoqi returned outside.

“Where… where are you taking me?”

Seeing Lin Tian waiting in the hall, Zhu Xiaoqi mustered the courage to ask.

Turning back to look at Zhu Xiaoqi, Lin Tian stepped out, saying, “Didn’t we discover an ancient cave mansion? We must go back and have another look!”

Zhu Xiaoqi held her package, quickly following.

“We’re going back? Are we going to seize the treasures from them?”

With a small sprint to catch up to Lin Tian’s pace, Zhu Xiaoqi asked with wide eyes.

“Of course! With treasures, we must seize them!”

Lin Tian smiled softly, nodding.

Zhu Xiaoqi pouted, finally building up the courage: “Then… if we encounter cultivators from the Demon Bone Tower, you’re not allowed to harm them!”

“As long as they don’t court death, they won’t die!”

Lin Tian said with a calm expression, walking while speaking: “Aren’t you afraid of me? For someone like you, being a plaything, a servant girl, a warmer of the bed, or a traveler’s necessary companion is quite handy!”

This statement made Zhu Xiaoqi shrink her neck involuntarily.

However,.

She glanced at Lin Tian, realizing these words seemed to be just the latter’s lip service!

This fellow in front of her, though his looks were unappealing, his words unpleasant, and wore a mischievous grin, seemed to have a good heart!

“You’re not going to do that!”

Zhu Xiaoqi pouted, saying: “When will you let me go?”

“Never!”

“Then who are you?”

“I’m a person!”

“What is your cultivation level?”

“Very strong!”

“You’re not a cultivator from the Demon Cloud Ridge, are you?”

“Not telling you!”

…

The two walked along, talking sporadically.

In the end.

Zhu Xiaoqi no longer feared Lin Tian in the slightest.

Once the conversation box opened, it was as if it couldn’t be closed again.

Lin Tian also admired this girl’s chattiness; even if he showed little interest, she could draw out all sorts of topics.

Especially upon realizing that he hadn’t really harmed her, she grew bolder and bolder!

But soon enough.

Once out of the Cold Corpse Hall, Zhu Xiaoqi quickly closed her mouth.

For Lin Tian had a flying sword in hand, unleashing a torrent of sharp energy, sweeping over all the cultivators and buildings in the valley.

In the blink of an eye.

The place was littered with corpses!

Almost all disciples of the Cold Corpse Valley were utterly slaughtered!

And over at the dungeon, Lin Tian had no intention of rescuing anyone else.

Because many had already been wasted by the corpse water, saving them was pointless, so he directly sent down a Samadhi True Fire, burning everything clean, perhaps letting them find release was best!

Silently, Zhu Xiaoqi finally followed Lin Tian out of the basically cleansed Cold Corpse Valley.

“At least you’re at the Golden Core Late Stage, perhaps even a Nascent Soul Old Monster? Anyway, you’re strong! I’m clumsy, following you, it’s useless!”

Not far out, Zhu Xiaoqi, holding her package, pouted and said angrily.

The scene of Lin Tian’s killing earlier was terrifying, but Zhu Xiaoqi quickly adjusted to it.

If the opponent wanted to kill her, he wouldn’t have waited until now.

“For washing, cooking, warming the bed, even that’s sufficient!”

Lin Tian grinned again, turning back to wink at Zhu Xiaoqi.

Zhu Xiaoqi blushed, quickly lowering her head, biting her lip, with tears shimmering in her eyes.

But ultimately.

She sighed in her heart, realizing it was fate!

This person before her was likely a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator!

Did she have a choice?

None at all!

Not having killed her was already a mercy!

And following a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, even as a servant, perhaps one day she’d grow strong!

Watching this girl, resigned to her fate, Lin Tian smiled inwardly, though he had no intention to comfort her, he merely kept walking.

An hour later.

With a girl who seemed like a wronged wife, they traversed mountains and valleys, finally returning to the ancient cave mansion.

However, by this point, there were more people around the ancient cave mansion.

And at this point, a group had entered into a fierce battle!

More Cold Corpse Valley cultivators arrived, and drawing from Hu Da’s memories, Lin Tian recognized the thin-as-a-bamboo Great Elder of the Cold Corpse Valley, Hee Min, who had not yet acted.

Also, standing aside was the towering, seemingly refined Shen Tu Jun!

This guy, truly handsome and suave, though his sinister eyes made people uncomfortable!

On the opposite side.

A familiar face appeared!

Half-familiar to Lin Tian!

Only seven or eight people, but the leader was someone Lin Tian had seen before, none other than Wu Feng, the leader of the Double Island Special Team from the Guang Han Continent!

Before, he had brought people to the Demon Cloud Ridge Special Warfare Reserve Team for exchanges, but unfortunately lost!

Yet here he was, in this place!

What were they planning?

Lin Tian raised an eyebrow, secretly surprised.

His gaze also fell beside Wu Feng at this moment.

They were standing respectfully next to a group of cultivators, a group more than a dozen strong, the lowest cultivation being around Qi Refinement 7th or 8th Level, with the highest at the Golden Core Initial Stage!

Indeed!

It was Golden Core Stage cultivators, those who had come were very powerful!

Moreover, Lin Tian recognized one of the youths among them—Lu Hai!

He had last seen him at the hall when accompanying Xu Junya to handle temporary residency documents!

Seems to be a disciple from a powerful sect!

Now, in this group led by Lu Hai, along with the Cold Corpse Valley people, they were besieging a group of people!

The attire of that group, Lin Tian recognized at a glance, were cultivators from the Demon Bone Tower!

“Ah… it’s Master and them, and the Great World…”

Zhu Xiaoqi also saw the situation clearly, exclaiming loudly.

Lin Tian shook his head, coldly laughed: “With treasures appearing, everyone can seize! Your sect isn’t strong, yet still wants a share of the pie, isn’t it just like a small fish being eaten by a big fish!”
