Xiao Feng could kill them with the Star Absorbing Technique, but he couldn't allow himself to be branded a demonic cultivator.

Seeing that the others were looking at him with the same eyes they used to look at a demonic cultivator, Xiao Feng was speechless.

"Do you think you can just label someone a demonic cultivator like that? Do you even realize how much trouble demonic cultivators would cause the cultivation world if they appeared?"

"If you didn't want to die by my hand, you shouldn't have provoked me in the first place. You can't just use the stigma of demonic cultivators to insult me ​​because I destroyed your dantian and caused you to lose all your spiritual power!"

Xiao Feng's voice was icy cold, allowing the remaining three to witness firsthand how he had pierced through the dantian of the other two.

"I may have been a bit ruthless, but if you want to pin the crime of demonic cultivation on me, I don't mind making you die even faster!"

Xiao Feng's voice was icy, clearly provoked by the words of the two cultivators.

The other three were somewhat frightened after hearing what the two said.

Seeing Xiao Feng's angry expression, and how he mercilessly pierced through the dantian of the two men, the three of them dared not refer to Xiao Feng as a demonic cultivator.

The three of them distanced themselves from Xiao Feng.

"Your actions are far too ruthless! Now that you have obtained the divine artifact, why can't you spare our lives?"

One of the monks spoke first.

"Is it that I won't spare your lives? It's that you insisted on coming here to die. If you back off now, I might spare your lives!" Xiao Feng said coldly.

The other three swallowed hard, looking at the bloody dantian of the two who had already died.

The five of them were roughly equal in strength, and Xiao Feng was able to kill two of them despite being severely injured.

The remaining three of them were definitely no match for Xiao Feng.

Rather than going against Xiao Feng, it's better to leave quickly to avoid ending up like him.

"What? Aren't you leaving yet?" Xiao Feng asked coldly.

Xiao Feng did not convert the magical power that he had just absorbed with the Star Absorbing Technique into his own. Instead, he used it all to exert pressure on the three people in front of him.

The three of them, as expected, dared not continue the pursuit and fled in panic.

"I may spare your lives for what happened today, but if I ever hear anyone call me a demonic cultivator again, I will kill all three of you, no matter where you are in the world!" Xiao Feng's cold words came from behind.

When the three turned to look at Xiao Feng, they were shocked to see three points of light emerging from him, flying toward them with lightning speed.

Finally, amidst their terrified expressions, it penetrated directly into their bodies.

"These three points of light allow me to sense your location. No matter where you are, you won't escape!" Xiao Feng's words, which filled them with despair, rang out behind them.

The three of them ran even faster, determined to find a way to remove the light spots from their bodies or to get further away from Xiao Feng.

The three of them originally planned to spread the word that Xiao Feng was a demonic cultivator, but now they dare not offend him!

After the three left, Xiao Feng's previously imposing aura vanished instantly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

It was no easy task to snatch the artifact from these people, and Xiao Feng was seriously injured.

If he hadn't been forcing himself to maintain a facade of authority, these people would probably have already seen through his deception.

Fortunately, those three people were really frightened by his words and ran away very quickly, otherwise Xiao Feng would not have been able to hold on either.

Xiao Feng took out the pills he had prepared in advance from the system space and consumed another bottle.

Feeling the medicinal power of the pills repairing the wounds in his body, Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

The current crisis has been resolved.

Although he didn't kill those three people, Xiao Feng felt it was a bit of a pity.

But his immediate priority was to ensure Su Xueqing's safety.

Han Ya didn't come after him, so he's very likely to target Su Xueqing.

Xiao Feng did not trust Han Ya.

Once Xiao Feng's injuries stabilized, he quickly headed towards the agreed-upon location.

When Xiao Feng arrived there, he saw Han Ya fighting with Su Xueqing.

Su Xueqing was indeed no match for Han Ya.

If Xiao Feng had arrived any later, Su Xueqing would likely have been severely injured by Han Ya.

Fifteen minutes ago.

"Why did you help me stop those ferocious beasts?" Su Xueqing asked warily as she looked at Han Ya, who had reappeared in front of her.

"I already have a grudge against them. I stopped them only to avenge myself. You are no match for me. I can spare your life, but you must give me the artifact after you obtain it." Han Ya said indifferently.

Su Xueqing knew she was no match for Han Ya, so all she could do now was stall for time until Xiao Feng arrived, at which point everything would be resolved.

"You want to wait for Xiao Feng to come?" Han Ya seemed to be able to read minds, directly reading what Su Xueqing was thinking.

"So what if it is? The artifact is in his hands; he can give it to whomever he wants. I can't agree to that!" Su Xueqing said coldly.

"Perhaps you don't know, but I have the ability to disguise myself. If I kill you or injure you, and I transform into your appearance, do you think Xiao Feng will be able to tell the difference?" As Han Ya finished speaking, he had already become exactly like Su Xueqing.

Su Xueqing stared in shock at the "herself" in front of her, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. She quickly drew her longsword and immediately began fighting Han Ya.

"You are no match for me, and I don't want to hurt you." Han Ya only wanted to obtain the divine artifact and did not want to harm Su Xueqing.

Seeing Su Xueqing make a move, Han Ya quickly transformed back into his original form and immediately began fighting with Su Xueqing.

Su Xueqing knew she couldn't possibly defeat Han Ya, but she had to find a way to buy time.

Su Xueqing was unsure whether Xiao Feng could tell that Han Ya had transformed into her.

Han Ya originally thought that Xiao Feng was being chased by those five human cultivators.

Even if Xiao Feng is very strong, it will definitely take him some effort to deal with those five human cultivators.

So Han Ya had the leisure to play with Su Xueqing for a while longer.

Unfortunately, Han Ya didn't expect that after Xiao Feng killed two of the cultivators with swift and decisive methods, he scared away the other three.

Therefore, Xiao Feng arrived here earlier.

Although Han Ya's senses told him that Xiao Feng was flying in this direction, he didn't have time to knock Su Xueqing unconscious and throw her in an inconspicuous place.

But now, if he tries to make peace with Su Xueqing, she definitely won't agree, leaving Han Ya in a dilemma.

Before he could react, Xiao Feng had already stepped onto the spot and happened to see Han Ya and Su Xueqing fighting.

Without saying a word, Xiao Feng immediately stepped forward.

Fortunately, Xiao Feng also considered the friendship he had shared with Han Ya along the way, so he did not use the Star Absorbing Technique directly, but instead threw out the poison that Wu Hai had given him.

Han Ya naturally noticed Xiao Feng's actions and took the opportunity to quickly distance himself from Su Xueqing.

He watched helplessly as Su Xueqing fell into Xiao Feng's arms and was protected behind him.
