"Who are you?"
However, in the face of such an encounter, Ye Qingchen showed no panic, only slightly lowered his gaze and asked in a deep voice.
"Don’t worry about who we are, hand over all the elixirs on you, and perhaps I can leave you with a complete corpse!" A middle-aged man with a majestic aura sneered hoarsely.
"Is it for the elixirs?"
Ye Qingchen raised his eyebrows.
Clearly.
He was seen during his earlier dealings with Ma Jiu and others, prompting the thought of killing for treasure!
"Heh, an ordinary man is innocent but harbors a guilty treasure. For you to casually produce a profound-grade top-grade elixir, your worth must be considerable..." the middle-aged man sneered, "Those fools with Ma Jiu only earned a single elixir by working for you, but directly taking them from you is far simpler than working!"
That’s the rule of Black Abyss City.
The strong prey on the weak!
It’s only natural!
Everyone else had cold smiles on their faces, eyes filled with greed.
It should be noted.
Everyone entering Black Abyss City must carefully hide themselves, avoiding any revelation of their origins. A newcomer is more like entering a wolf pack.
Like Ye Qingchen, who casually produces a profound-grade top-grade elixir, is undoubtedly seen as a fat sheep by them.
"You’re wrong!" However, at this time, Ye Qingchen shook his head, "Ma Jiu is truly smart, they know who they can mess with and who they can’t!"
"Kid, you’ve said too much!"
The middle-aged man’s face turned cold and attacked.
Swish!
Almost simultaneously.
Everyone in the alley struck together.
"Courting death!"
Ye Qingchen’s eyes turned cold.
He directly waved his hand.
Boom!
Immediately, hundreds of Wind Flying Swords appeared in front of him, forming a lightning-fast attack on the assailants around him.
This group wasn’t weak, with three or four Profound Pill Realm experts among them, but in front of Ye Qingchen, they were simply not worth mentioning.
"Pfft!"
In the blink of an eye.
They were pierced by the flying swords, collapsing powerlessly to the ground, beyond dead.
At this moment.
Outside the alley, another group was gathered.
"Damn it, Huang the Third acted first!"
An old man with an aquiline nose couldn’t help but curse.
It’s known.
Since he heard a fat sheep was outside the city, trading with Ma Jiu using a profound-grade top-grade elixir as compensation, he hurriedly brought people to kill.
Unfortunately.
When he aggressively arrived, he found the fat sheep had actually entered the alley willingly, which wasn’t like lying on the chopping board?
Others also nodded repeatedly.
Huang the Third had a small reputation as a local bully in Black Abyss City, known for his vicious and ruthless nature, something that once reached his hands never returned.
"This time Huang the Third certainly had a full meal!" The elder sighed, "I suspect that fat sheep is definitely an alchemist, perhaps even possessing Earth Tier elixirs!"
"Why is there still no movement inside?"
"Do you even need to ask? Surely no longer alive!"
However.
Before the words were finished, a figure emerged slowly from the alley. Seeing Ye Qingchen come out, the crowd gathered outside the alley froze slightly, revealing a trace of astonished expression.
Then, as if suddenly remembering something, they rushed into the alley, only to see a scene like Asura Purgatory.
"Hissssss!"
At that moment.
Everyone inhaled sharply.
"Boss..."
The crowd looked at the elder in horror.
The aquiline-nosed elder checked the bodies, feeling chills down his spine. Including Huang the Third, more than twenty people were all killed almost instantly.
"Alert everyone, do not engage this person in any way! Whatever his demands, fulfill them!"
The elder swallowed hard and declared.
This was no fat sheep!
It was precisely an overseas fierce dragon!
It seems.
Black Abyss City was about to become even more tumultuous!
At this moment, Ye Qingchen.
Naturally was unaware, his ruthless methods had shocked these local bullies. But he could keenly sense that the tails following him had suddenly disappeared.
Clearly.
Black Abyss City’s local bullies had their own circles. With Huang the Third dead, there’s no way to hide it, and the numerous bullies quickly warned their subordinates not to provoke Ye Qingchen.
"Here we are!"
A moment later.
Ye Qingchen arrived at the largest tavern in the city, Linyuan Tower.
Linyuan Tower.
Standing three hundred meters tall, it was the tallest building in the city.
Being on the top floor, it offered not only a view of the entire city but also of the bottomless Abyssal Valley outside, thus earning its name.
Ye Qingchen had just stepped onto the top floor when Ma Jiu rushed over, "My lord, I have gathered the information you requested..."
"So quickly?"
Ye Qingchen frowned slightly.
Upon hearing this, Ma Jiu shuddered and quickly patted his chest to assure, "My lord, this information is absolutely the most comprehensive available, covering Black Abyss City, Abyssal Valley, as well as the major forces within Black Abyss City and incoming outsiders!"
No kidding!
Ma Jiu dared not slack even slightly.
Initially he thought the half-day given by Ye Qingchen was ample time, not taking it too seriously. But upon entering the city, he learned Huang the Third and his group were silently wiped out by Ye Qingchen, nearly scaring him to death.
He urgently mobilized all forces and gathered the information.
"Start with Black Abyss City, focus on the important parts!"
Ye Qingchen nodded.
Ma Jiu acknowledged and said:
"Black Abyss City is full of strong individuals. Preliminary calculations show there are ninety-three Profound Core Ninth Heaven experts, five hundred sixty-nine Profound Core Eighth Heaven experts, and numerous Seventh Heaven and below. They come from all realms of the Eastern Domain, either wanted criminals or those on their trail!"
Was Black Abyss City really so terrifying?
Ye Qingchen’s eyes narrowed.
"Continue!" he nodded, signaling Ma Jiu to go on.
Then.
Ma Jiu recounted some insider stories about Black Abyss City, such as the tangled city’s powers and recent major events, providing a general overview of the city’s situation.
To remain in Black Abyss City, one must be tougher than others!
"If I want to go to Abyssal Valley, how should I proceed?"
Ye Qingchen continued to ask.
"You want to go to Abyssal Valley!" Ma Jiu exclaimed in shock and quickly responded, "My lord, please avoid Abyssal Valley during this period. Recently, many strange occurrences have happened outside Abyssal Valley... if you go, you might never return!"
"Tell me, what’s happening?"
Ye Qingchen’s tone was stern.
