Chapter 785: Chapter 786 Miss, don’t be afraid, we are not bad people
 

In a secret forest, the roar of the Steel Behemoth continued unabated as a sports car, trailing a streak of blue phantoms, sped towards the northwest, causing quite a number of Demonic Beasts to glance sideways.

Li Xiaobai and his companions were speeding wildly in the northwest direction.

According to the map, the Great Flame Dynasty was a peripheral kingdom on the Eastern Continent, self-sustaining and secluded in a corner. Although insignificant when compared to the entire Eastern Continent, the Sword Sect was a little closer to the core region of the Eastern Continent, located to the northwest and considered a fairly powerful sect with a Half-Saint cultivator in residence. Numerous other smaller sects depended on it.

Inside the vehicle.

The old beggar was cracking melon seeds, his gaze hazy amidst a cloud of smoke.

Ergouzi continuously recited scriptures, with a faint golden halo swirling around his head.

Ji Wuqing devotedly pecked at insects he had just caught from the outside world, crunching them one by one as his Sin Value slowly increased.

Li Xiaobai focused on driving, enjoying the rare tranquility.

“Save me!”

A sudden shout shattered the quiet, followed by a burst of combat noises. A graceful shadow burst out from the dark recesses of the jungle, her clothes in disarray and her expression panicked; tear stains were vaguely visible on her pretty face.

The woman was disheveled and in a sorry state, but her stunning beauty could hardly be concealed. With a helpless and frightened face, she looked extremely pitiful, and behind her, three to five cultivators were in hot pursuit.

She hopped up and down like a panic-stricken rabbit, eliciting compassion from any onlooker.

“Hehehe, little missy, just give in to us!”

Several young men laughed heartily, their eyes gleaming with lust as they curled their lips into wicked smiles, closing in step by step. Although she was within easy reach, they did not immediately lay hands on her. Instead, they teased her from time to time, enjoying the delightful view.

“Please, kind cultivator, save this poor girl! As long as you rescue me, I will do anything you want!”

The woman, looking desperate, yelled pitifully at the Lamborghini.

“Kid, don’t go looking for trouble. This woman is ours today. Don’t meddle in others’ affairs and just scram!”

The expression in the young men’s eyes turned cold, their faces growing progressively more ferocious as they spoke to the sports car.

Li Xiaobai slowed down the car and quietly surveyed the drama unfolding outside.

“What do you think?”

The old beggar scoffed, “Fake. That woman is too stupid. We have the windows rolled up, she can’t see inside from outside, so how would she know this is a ride and not a Demonic Beast?”

Ergouzi spoke with disdain, “That woman is only disheveled on her upper body, the lower half is still extremely clean. Though she deliberately dirtied her shoes, the legs beneath her skirt remain pristinely white. Clearly, she dirtied herself.”

Ji Wuqing said, “Kid, this woman is competing with us in acting skills. Teach her what it means to be an acting king!”

Li Xiaobai smiled and said, “I had the same thought. She’s obviously targeted us, the four notorious villains. She must have done her homework, guessing that we’d be heading to the Sword Sect for the trial. She laid in ambush on purpose. Let’s meet her and see which deity she turns out to be.”

With that, he stopped the Lamborghini, rolled down the window and called out, “Brothers outside, what goes around comes around. Your actions will have consequences!”

Seeing the Steel Behemoth come to a halt, both the frail female cultivator and the young men behind her revealed a glint of joy in their eyes.

Success!

“If you’re willing to meddle in this affair, then that makes things easy.”

“Thank you, young master, for saving my life. In the future, I shall be willing to work like an ox or a horse for you!”

The female cultivator threw herself in front of the carriage door and wept loudly, as miserably as one could imagine. Behind her, a group of young male cultivators’ eyes suddenly became sharp, and they bellowed angrily.

“Kid, do you know who we are? How dare you try to steal our woman. Do you have a death wish?”

“We are outer sect disciples of the Sword Sect. Judging by your direction, you must also be a cultivator participating in the Sword Sect’s trial, right? Young man, do not lead yourself astray. If you still want to have a foothold in the Sword Sect, don’t meddle in other people’s business!”

“In this world, there are some people you cannot afford to offend!”

A few of them said coldly.

“Oh, so you’re esteemed disciples of the Sword Sect? You can die now.”

Behind Li Xiaobai, a colossal Heart of the Blood Demon emerged, and several blood-red tendrils easily and effortlessly penetrated the brows of the men. The heart thumped as it beat, and in an instant, the men were drained into husks and fell to the ground, their faces still shocked as if they couldn’t believe they had been killed.

Their original plan was merely to elicit Li Xiaobai’s sympathy with the fragile female cultivator and then, after gaining his affection, infiltrate the group of the four notorious villains. They had only intended to speak a few harsh words and disclose their identities before leaving, but they hadn’t expected the person before them to act so unpredictably, killing them without saying a word. Unfortunately, they no longer had the chance to feel regret.

The female cultivator cowering before the carriage was involuntarily startled, her complexion growing even more pallid, her body turning somewhat weak. She clearly saw the blood-red heart beating in front of her, and the words “Heart of the Blood Demon” instantly appeared in her mind.

How could this guy possibly have the Heart of the Blood Demon? The intel didn’t mention this at all!

It turns out he’s just like the rumors described, a bloodthirsty demon head. He probably hadn’t revealed his full strength in Yan City!

“It’s alright; since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the allure of a beautiful woman, and it’s even more so for geniuses like him. They need women to maintain their sense of achievement. I still have a good chance of winning!”

The female cultivator consoled herself inwardly. At this moment, she was the victim, and since this demon head had rescued her, he naturally wouldn’t kill her. She would find an opportunity to throw herself into his arms, and surely, he would be inseparable from her.

The blood-colored light flickered in the void.

Sin Value, one hundred and ten thousand points.

“Miss, the thieves are dead; you are safe now.”

The old beggar said nonchalantly, opening his eyelids and glancing at the female cultivator. Her acting skills were still poor, completely uninteresting; if he were to act, he could be a hundred times more convincing than her.

“Thank you, young master, for your righteous intervention!”

“I am an outer sect disciple of the Sword Sect, Zhen Jian. I was traveling with a few fellow disciples, but I never expected them to harbor malicious intentions halfway through the trip. If not for the young master’s timely arrival, I would have likely been defiled by now!”

“If the young master does not mind, I am willing to guide you to the Sword Sect for the trial!”

With a pitiable look, Zhen Jian spoke, her tearful eyes brimming with gratitude. If it were someone else, they might have been moved by now, but sadly, she faced Li Xiaobai, someone who had seen through everything and already had a wife.

Zhen Jian?

That name is quite imaginative; the person who came up with it is truly talented.

“Sure, come aboard!”

Seeing Zhen Jian’s throat move, clearly nervous, Li Xiaobai flashed a set of white teeth and smiled, “Miss Zhen, don’t be afraid. We’re not bad people.”
