Everyone stared blankly ahead, where two figures lay on the ground, a head splattered amidst the rainwater.
Such a scene was shockingly awe-inspiring.
These two were Earth-Rank Peak Warriors!
If before they had thought Xia Liu had injured Qiu Ming by a fluke, then Yan Jun's unexpected beheading was enough proof of Xia Liu's strength!
The onlookers couldn't help but draw in a cold breath, their hearts seemingly coated with frost.
They were all afraid that Xia Liu might look their way, for they had just insulted him.
How could they possibly be his match if he could kill an Earth-Rank Peak Warrior quietly and unnoticed?
The most terrified was undoubtedly Wu Lang, since he had spoken to Yan Jun and had openly humiliated Xia Liu.
At this moment, Wu Lang wanted to flee, yet he dared not.
He had an ominous feeling that if he dared to move even half a step, his head would fly off just like Yan Jun's had done.
He was afraid—what did it matter if one was an Earth-Rank Peak Warrior?
In front of Xia Liu, they could still be silently killed.
No one could see through Xia Liu's cultivation.
Wu Lang couldn't see through it either.
Xia Liu, at that moment, showed no energy fluctuations at all, appearing like an utterly ordinary working-class youth.
His skin was fair, his looks handsome, resembling a white-collar worker from some company.
"Heaven-Rank Warrior!" Suddenly, the thought exploded in Wu Lang's mind.
Perhaps Xia Liu was that mysterious Heaven-Rank Warrior!
Otherwise, how could he accomplish such feats, whether it was concealing his own energy or killing an Earth-Rank Peak Warrior, he did it all in an instant.
This was definitely not the capability of an Earth-Rank Warrior.
It must be a Heaven-Rank Warrior!
With these thoughts, Wu Lang dared not move even more.
As cold sweat flowed, his body trembled, rooted to the spot, waiting for the event to end so he could apologize to Xia Liu.
The remaining two Earth-Rank High-Level Warriors had also stopped in their tracks upon the death of Yan Jun.
If even an Earth-Rank Peak Warrior had died, what ability did they have to make a difference?
To go forward would just be courting death.
Their cultivations were both of Earth-Rank High-Level, and they held some stature within their families.
To get to where they were today, they had made much effort.
Hence, they treasured their lives immensely.
If Xia Liu hadn't displayed such terrifying methods, they would have fled long ago.
"You two are lucky, I don't plan on killing you," Xia Liu said, looking towards the two petrified Earth-Rank High-Level Warriors.
The two exchanged glances, their heartbeats gradually accelerating.
Though relieved, they were also unfortunate because Xia Liu had killed the Earth-Rank Peak Warrior of their families.
"Take their bodies back, tell the stewards of your families, I will ascend to Yanjing in three days. Show me whatever techniques you have then," Xia Liu said commandingly.
The words of Xia Liu hit the ears of those present like a bomb exploding, their very souls shaken.
He dared to make his intentions so clear!
He was utterly fearless!
He was incredibly arrogant!
Where did his confidence come from?
Could he truly be a Heaven-Rank Warrior?
A series of shocks burst forth in the minds of the people; they panicked, their souls numbed.
This was definitely the most arrogant youth they had seen in their lifetimes!
He was also the super expert with the most mysterious cultivation!
The Yan Family and Qiu Family warriors exchanged glances, not daring to respond to Xia Liu.
They feared that a single wrong word could cost them their heads to touch the ground.
"Oh, one more thing, if you dare pull any tricks, I won't show mercy. After all, annihilating a clan is a piece of cake for me!"
After finishing his words, Xia Liu left the two standing there like idiots, his figure slowly approaching Wu Lang.
In their shock, the two of them didn't fully grasp what Xia Liu had said.
Only when they felt he truly wouldn't kill them, they immediately went forward to grab the corpses of their clan members and leave.
The warrior from the Yan Family had it worse, having to carry the corpses while also grasping at some hair.
Those present felt their scalps tingle at the sight.
But what terrified them even more was that Xia Liu was walking towards them!
Among them, Wu Lang's body trembled more violently, because no matter how he saw it, Xia Liu's target seemed to be him!
"Senior, spare my life, please!" Just before Xia Liu reached him, the seventy-year-old Wu Lang's knees gave out, and he knelt on the ground thoroughly.
Compared to his life and his family, he would rather lose all dignity, if only to secure safety for himself and his clan.
If he had known Xia Liu possessed such powerful abilities, he never would have dared to mock him.
Not to mention thinking about joining forces just moments ago.
At the thought, Wu Lang was on the verge of a breakdown.
"I remember you're called Family Head Wu, get up first, we have no grudge between us," Xia Liu said with a wave of his hand, and immediately, a gentle burst of Spiritual Energy erupted.
Wu Lang's eyes widened, for he fully felt this power.
He could clearly sense that this power was far stronger than Inner Qi!
Due to Wu Lang's Cultivation Method, he could truly sense this; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to perceive the terror of Xia Liu's power.
He now was nearly certain that Xia Liu was a Heaven-Rank Warrior!
Otherwise, how could that power be so much higher than high-level Inner Qi?
And it was also extremely pure.
"Senior can just call me Wu Lang," Wu Lang said, wiping the sweat from his brow, though he was the head of a family.
But compared with a super expert like Xia Liu, let alone a single family,
even a sect, or even a super sect, would have to call him senior with respect.
"No no, Family Head Wu rolls off the tongue better," Xia Liu said with a slight smile.
"Er, whatever the senior prefers is fine," Wu Lang dared not refute Xia Liu.
Previously, he feared that Xia Liu might take offense, but now it seemed he was overthinking it.
"Everyone, have you seen enough?" Just then, Xia Liu cast his gaze upon the surrounding warriors and spoke softly.
His voice carried Spiritual Energy, and even warriors a mile away could hear him clearly.
No one dared to answer him, as this was the question of a super expert.
Who would dare to respond?
"If you've seen enough, then go home, wash up, and sleep," Xia Liu said shaking his head, seeing that everyone remained silent.
A bomb seemed to explode in everyone's hearts.
However, no one dared to be the first to leave because Xia Liu was still there.
They looked at each other in hesitation.
Not until the warrior farthest from Xia Liu turned and left did the others begin to move.
Only after they had completely distanced themselves from the scene did they realize that their clothes were soaked through.
They all knew that it wasn't rain that had drenched them, but their own sweat that had soaked through.
Seeing others able to leave safely, tears nearly fell from Wu Lang's eyes.
Because Xia Liu was still standing in front of him, and without Xia Liu's permission, how could he dare to move?
"Family Head Wu, it looks like the rain will keep pouring tonight, and it seems I have nowhere to go..."
"Senior! Please give this junior a chance to offer you a night's stay at my home," Wu Lang quickly grasped Xia Liu's meaning as soon as he heard him speak.
Despite his trembling, the implication in Xia Liu's words was clear; if he dared make any inappropriate sound, the outcome would be unbearable...
