Lin Dong looked at Chu Tianyao, a cruel glint in his eyes. "Trying to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, huh..."

"Haha, good... brothers, cut off this kid's hands and feet. Don't kill him, let him see how we deal with Tang Nairou."

The men behind Lin Dong burst into laughter. "Alright, boss, letting this kid see this before he dies is a blessing in itself."

"Hehehe...Do you guys think this guy might get so excited while watching that he'll bleed to death faster? Wahahaha!"

The five patrol team members walked towards Chu Tianyao, joking around as they went.

Chu Tianyao's face had turned completely cold. "So this is how the patrol team in Bitter Sea Town patrols... this is how they disregard human life and commit all sorts of evil deeds."

He suddenly burst into uncontrollable laughter, "Hehehe...hehehehe...hahahahaha...hahahahahahaha!!!"

A patrolman raised his steel knife. "Boss, this guy seems to be scared out of his wits. He's laughing to himself."

Lin Dong glanced at it, frowned, and said, "Stop talking nonsense and just kill him. After that, we'll get the women!"

The patrolman nodded, and his steel knife slashed down at Chu Tianyao's head!

"You brat, die!"

The next moment, a blade of light flashed like a bolt of lightning...

The patrolman's head flew high into the air!

Chu Tianyao no longer concealed his aura, and the imposing presence of a ninth-level innate cultivator emanated from him.

He held the Wind Chaser in his hand, his gaze cold and sinister.

"While the survival of the fittest is true in the cultivation world... I still feel furious at trash like you!"

Lin Dong's expression changed; this person actually possessed the strength of the ninth level of the Innate Realm!

After all, he was the captain of the patrol team and had extensive combat experience.

They immediately grabbed iron bars and prepared to rush to the rescue...

But we were still a step too late!

The flash of the blade brought forth a gust of wind...

After the storm, the four patrol members were found dead.

It is merely the opening move of the Six Styles of Wind Slash: Wind and Clouds Rise.

He killed four martial artists at the Innate Realm!

Lin Dong was both shocked and furious, but he knew that there was no way out at this moment.

He brandished the iron rod and unleashed his martial arts technique, the Serpent Staff Technique.

Lin Dong was, after all, a martial artist at the eighth level of the Innate Realm. When he went all out, his attack was no small matter!

His figure moved swiftly between light and shadow, the iron rod dancing with his movements, sometimes like a serpent emerging from its hole, swift and unparalleled; sometimes winding and twisting, avoiding the strong and striking the weak, each strike containing a thousand variations of exquisite skill.

As the shadows of the sticks intertwined, the air seemed to be shattered by the sharp force, emitting a series of piercing whistling sounds.

Faced with such fierce staff techniques, Chu Tianyao remained unmoved.

Holding the Wind-Chasing Blade, he unleashed the second move of the Six Wind-Slaying Techniques: Wind Sweeps Away Clouds.

The continuous flashes of sword light drew countless dazzling streaks in the air, completely blocking the iron rods in the forest cave.

The two figures intertwined, their staffs and blades clashing in the air, producing a deafening clang of metal striking metal.

Lin Dong's Snake Staff Technique was exceptionally agile, each strike seemingly able to anticipate the opponent's moves, yet Chu Tianyao neutralized them all with his Wind Chasing Blade at crucial moments.

Chu Tianyao, with his astonishing speed and judgment, sought opportunities in the gaps between the staff shadows. The Chasing Wind Blade in his hands was like a living thing, sometimes thrusting, sometimes slashing, sometimes stabbing, each move deadly.

Unable to break through after a prolonged siege, Lin Dong let out a roar and swung his iron rod, which transformed into a giant silver python that lunged straight at Chu Tianyao.

Chu Tianyao shifted his body to the side, and with a gentle flick of his Wind Chasing Blade, he skillfully neutralized the fierce attack. At the same time, he switched from defense to offense, slashing out diagonally with a dazzling blade of light, aiming straight for the vital points of the forest cave.

Lin Dong was about to swing his staff to block when he saw the blade's edge suddenly accelerate...

The blade flashed across Lin Dong's neck, and his head flew high into the air.

"To kill someone at the eighth level of the Innate Realm, I actually had to use the third move of the Six Styles of Wind Slash..." Chu Tianyao seemed somewhat dissatisfied with his performance and let out a sigh.

On the other side, Tang Nairou was so shocked by this scene that she was speechless.

This young man in blue robes killed six members of the patrol team almost instantly.

This also included Lin Dong, a cultivator at the eighth level of the Innate Realm...

What terrifying power that is!

After a long while, Tang Nairou finally came to her senses...

Looking at Chu Tianyao, she suddenly felt somewhat confused and infatuated.

Unconsciously, she blurted out, "Thank you so much for saving my life, young master... I am willing to repay your kindness with my body..."

Tang Nairou's words brought Chu Tianyao back to his senses...

Would you offer yourself in return?

He looked at Tang Nairou and nodded. "That's how it should be."

After saying that, he picked Tang Nairou up by the waist and carried her deeper into the grove...

Tang Nairou was at a loss for what to do!

"Wait... what's going on here?! Shouldn't he have declined? Those were just polite words!"

"Normally, shouldn't we say something like, 'We are people of the martial arts world, helping the weak and punishing the strong, there's no need to be polite'?"

"Why is it just taken for granted that they should do this, and why did they even take it to the grove?"

Tang Nairou felt her cheeks burning hot. "...This...he's about to do this with me?"

"Wasn't that too fast! Can... I refuse? But... I was the one who asked just now..."

"He's very handsome, kind-hearted, and strong...he's quite a good man..."

"What should I do if I'm starting to feel something... Oh dear... Is this... Is this about to begin?"
