“Huh? He’s not dead yet?”
The man licked his lips and said viciously, “Let’s do it again!”
The sword light turned around and pierced through Tang Hao’s other shoulder.
“Hahaha!”
The man laughed loudly and displayed a perverse look on his face.
“Tsk, you never change, Qing. You’re still as sadistic as ever!”
Another man landed on the ground and reached out to grab Tang Hao.
“Hey! That kid is mine!”
Another person joined in.
More and more people landed and began to fight for Tang Hao.
“Go away! Let me kill that kid first!”
The king of the Ye Kingdom roared angrily. He activated his golden wheel and slashed wildly at Tang Hao.
If it hit, Tang Hao would die on the spot.
“Heh, that kid is dead for sure!”
“That monster is better off dead!”
Many people said mockingly.
Suddenly, a loud shout could be heard from the sky. “Stop! All of you, stop! No one kill that brat!”
Accompanying that shout was an immense pressure that dumbfounded everyone.
At the same time, a beam of golden light flashed and blocked the golden wheel.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the sky.
A group of people was rushing over quickly. Their leader was a Nascent Soul monster.
“Who’s that?”
Everyone was confused. They had never seen that person before.
Could it be the kid’s sect leader or an elder in his tribe?
Many people began to panic. In their pursuit of the treasure, they forgot that the kid might have someone powerful backing him.
Only a major faction would be able to nurture such a monster.
As far as they knew, that faction could not have been from the southern region, but they might have been from the north. They knew that many people from the northern region had traveled southward in search of that kid.
Most of the northerners hunted the kid down for the bone, but this group stopped them from killing the kid. Perhaps the kid really was from their sect.
If that were the case, it would be bad news for them.
The cultivation world in the southern region was weaker than that of the north.
Amid the confusion, they heard another loud shout. “All of you, stop! You’ll have to deal with Primeval Mountain before you kill that kid!”
Another group of people came. The leader was another Nascent Soul monster.
Everyone was stunned again.
‘What’s going on? Why is there another group of people protecting that kid?
‘Moreover, it’s another unfamiliar Nascent Soul monster. Is he from the north too?’
“And the Di family too! Stop, all you southern whelps!”
The Di family also came.
More and more groups of people arrived.
So many Nascent Soul monsters were gathered in one place, and that shocked the people from the southern region.
They looked up at the sky in disbelief.
Some of the Nascent Soul cultivators were even more shocked that the most influential factions of the Ninth Continent, such as Primeval Mountain and the Di family, were present.
They knew that people were coming from the north, but they did not expect that those were from the biggest factions and that they had sent out their Nascent Soul experts.
They realized that the group of people earlier was not here to save one of their own. They wanted to capture him alive and bring him back.
They could not understand why they wanted to do that. If they wanted the divine bone, they could have killed him on the spot.
The people from Martial Mountain, the Yue family, and the other factions frowned.
They were able to access the Void Realm, and they knew why those people wanted the kid alive.
“This’ll be troublesome!” They muttered.
Once those factions from the north interfered, the southern factions could only let them do as they pleased. It meant that the southern factions would not be able to obtain the divine bone or the elemental fire.
“Wow, so many monsters!”
The king of the Qing kingdom and the others were shocked. They trembled under the imposing demeanor of the Nascent Soul cultivators and hurriedly retreated.
The king of the Ye Kingdom stood there with his golden wheel in his hand. He was reluctant to move.
He was so close to killing that kid and taking revenge.
“Get lost! To us, you’re nothing but an insect. Do you think that you can disobey us?” A Nascent Soul cultivator from Primeval Mountain fired a beam of light and sent the king of the Ye Kingdom flying.
Golden Core cultivators stood no chance in front of Nascent Soul monsters.
Tang Hao stood up, glanced at the sky, and breathed a sigh of relief.
His life would not be in danger for now. Those people did not want to kill him because they wanted his dark gold shards.
He began to activate the power of the divine bone to heal his wounds and suppress the ball of elemental fire.
“Hmph! We finally meet, you villain! Did you think that you could hide forever?”
The monster from Primeval Mountain descended from the sky and sneered.
The others also descended and stood all around him with faces full of ridicule.
“Aren’t you very powerful, you villain? You’ve killed me twice, including once with the demonic roc. I’m standing in front of you now. Kill me if you can!”
The monster from the Di family also sneered.
That sensation was unbelievably cathartic!
They had finally caught that supervillain. In the Void Realm, that kid was almost invincible, but in the real world, he was nothing more than a particularly tenacious insect that could be killed with one finger.
“You must have enjoyed yourself when you killed me, right?” The Nascent Soul monster from Broken Sword Mountain said savagely.
Tang Hao grinned and said, “Not bad! It’s not as enjoyable as killing your sect leader though!”
The Nascent Soul monster flew into a rage, while the other ones burst into laughter.
“That kid really has guts!”
The praise was genuine.
“You have a death wish, kid!” The Broken Sword Mountain cultivator trembled with anger. He barely resisted the urge to slap the kid to death right there.
“Kill me if you have the balls!” Tang Hao scoffed.
“You…”
The Nascent Soul monster was livid.
That kid was too despicable!
“Hmm, there’s so many of you, but there’s only one of me. It’s not like you can split me, right? How about… you guys fight it out, and the winner gets to take me away?
“Think about it. You’ll get two dark gold shards, the divine bone, and a ball of elemental fire. Oh, right, there’s the Fleetfoot Stride too! That’s a pretty good deal, isn’t it?”
Tang Hao said with a smile.
The Nascent Soul monsters looked at each other warily.
The kid had a point! He might have many treasures, but they did not want to share them with others.
“We’ll fight it out then! Winner gets the kid!” The monster from Primeval Mountain shouted.
“Alright, let’s fight. That’s the fairest way!”
The other Nascent Soul monsters agreed.
Hearing the Nascent Soul monsters were going to fight, the other people immediately panicked and hurriedly retreated.
Tang Hao took the opportunity to run. He did not run away but instead hid in a nearby cave.
The Nascent Soul monsters were shocked. They wanted to grab him on impulse but decided not to do so when they saw him running into a cave. Instead, they used their clairvoyance to investigate the cave.
The cave led to a dead end, and there was no escape. They were more at ease when the kid was in the cave. That way, the other people from the southern region would not kill him.
