"That's all I know, please spare my life!"
The burly man, terrified by Xiao Chen, pleaded, clearly not understanding Xiao Chen's character.
"Oh, I see. In that case, you may leave."
Xiao Chen patted the burly man on the shoulder and then untied his ropes, a move that left the burly man somewhat incredulous.
"Oh, so you want to stay?"
Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow, looking thoughtful, and said that after all, it was quite warm here, and he hadn't been very considerate in sending him into the fireplace to get intimate with the flames.
"No, no, no, I'll leave right now."
After speaking, the burly man arrived at the gate, looked at Xiao Chen one last time as if to confirm it again. After seeing that Xiao Chen really had no intention of stopping him, he hurriedly opened the gate and ran downstairs as fast as he could.
Xiao Chen seemed to have truly forgiven the other party, and instead remained where he was, deep in thought.
"Xiao Ai, close the door for me."
After Xiao Chen gave the order, the gate closed, leaving only one Holy Beast Cult guardian alive. His eyes were full of regret; he should have said so if he had known Xiao Chen would actually let them leave.
Because the Holy Beast Cult has used many similar tactics, but after they reveal them, they always choose to eliminate them directly to prevent future troubles.
"Alright, you're of no use to me now, so I can't keep you around."
After speaking, Xiao Chen walked step by step to the other party, picked him up with one hand, and carried him outside to the balcony. The big man, who was 1.9 meters tall and weighed more than 300 kilograms, was as powerless as a lamb in Xiao Chen's hands.
They quickly reached the balcony, and Xiao Chen easily crushed his neck with a slight effort. Of course, to be on the safe side, Xiao Chen also shook his brains to even them out before throwing both of them downstairs.
After returning to his room, Xiao Chen fell into deep thought. He learned about their origins from one of them.
They are from a cult called the Sacred Beast Cult in Jiang City, Jiang Province, which is next to Hangzhou Province. The Sacred Beast Cult worships a sacred beast, and they obtain power from the sacred beast by strengthening their own bodies through the blood of the sacred beast.
Their leader is Tang Xiaohu's older brother, Tang Xiaolong. They came here on orders to take Tang Xiaohu's family and his son, Tang Jian, to Jiang City.
"This is quite interesting. There's actually some kind of sacred beast that can enhance a person's physical attributes. I wonder what kind of species it is. I'll go to Jiang Province to check it out when I have time."
Xiao Chen shook his head, then looked at the clock on the wall. At this point, that person should be dead by now. No kidding, Xiao Chen wasn't a soft-hearted person. Telling the other person to leave didn't mean telling them to live.
"Just wait. Once I get back and find the cult leader, he'll bring his men to kill you. No matter how strong you are, you'll never be a match for the cult leader."
The guardian who had been released by Xiao Chen earlier was speeding forward on a sled through the heavy snow, but after a short while he felt himself stop.
"What's going on? What happened to me? Pfft!"
Before he could even understand what had happened, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and a sharp pain spread throughout his body. He didn't even realize that his internal organs had been cut open.
It was when Xiao Chen patted his shoulder earlier that a spiritual force was secretly sent into his body. When it was a certain distance away from Xiao Chen, the spiritual force would burst out of his body and shred his internal organs.
Although the enhancement effect of the sacred beast was quite good, it was a fatal wound. Its internal organs had been cut open, so how could it still be alive?
"It turns out he never intended to let me go from the beginning."
Lying in the snow, the God Guardian finally understood everything in his despairing eyes, but it was too late. Soon, the heavy snow completely buried his body.
On the other side, Xiao Chen could naturally sense that the other party was completely dead, so he was able to cultivate in peace. If he remembered correctly, the temperature would drop to minus seventy degrees Celsius in five days. At that time, only flames could dispel the cold, and blankets and the like would have no effect at all.
In his previous life, Xiao Chen set his dining table on fire to avoid freezing to death. The other dog neighbors also realized something was wrong and lit some things to keep warm, thus avoiding freezing to death as well.
The temperature didn't stay at minus seventy degrees for long; it only lasted for one day before it started to warm up and rise to minus fifty degrees.
Five days later, Shen Shuisi brought a group of people to kill Xiao Chen and steal his food. However, Xiao Chen was a little curious as to why Shen Shuisi brought so many people, since she could enjoy the food all by herself if she killed him.
However, Xiao Chen quickly realized that, judging from Shen Shuisi's meticulousness, she was probably worried that he was no match for her alone, so she brought so many people to kill him.
"But I don't care about Chen Shui Si anymore, as long as she dies in the end. What I care about is, Lin Yi Chen, how long are you going to be so arrogant?"
Xiao Chen murmured. In his previous life, Lin Yichen had not been involved with them, and Xiao Chen did not know what Lin Yichen had gone to do. He only knew that the food stored in Lin Yichen's family was probably not much left.
Next, all that was left was to wait. After thinking it over, Xiao Chen started cultivating after his usual meal and photos, hoping to reach the Foundation Establishment stage as soon as possible so he could leave this place sooner.
Deep within a mountain in Jiang City, who would have thought that this was the infamous lair of the Holy Beast Cult? Here gathered a group of Holy Beast Cult followers, all dressed in black robes, their faces obscured by the darkness.
Inside the cave, rows of bonfires were lit, so it wasn't too cold.
The cultists knelt on the ground. Before them was a high throne, upon which sat Tang Xiaolong, the leader of the Holy Beast Cult, Tang Xiaohu's brother, and Tang Jian's biological father.
Tang Xiaolong stretched out his hand and said with a serious expression, "Everyone, the world is facing numerous crises. Now is the perfect time for our Holy Beast Sect to rise. Let us contribute our strength to the rise of our Holy Beast Sect in this icy and snowy land!"
At Tang Xiaolong's command, the followers below became excited. They had joined the Holy Beast Cult because they had seen the power of the Divine Guardians, hoping to one day obtain power similar to that of the Divine Guardians.
The scene of the Divine Guardian smashing a rock the size of a human head with a single punch was still vivid in their minds, so they naturally had no doubt about the power of the Holy Beast Sect!
"May our Holy Beast Sect endure for a thousand autumns and ten thousand years!"
"May our Holy Beast Sect endure for a thousand autumns and ten thousand years!"
"May our Holy Beast Sect endure for a thousand autumns and ten thousand years!"
...
After dismissing the cultists, Tang Xiaolong arrived at a laboratory. In the center of the laboratory, he saw a five-meter-tall four-legged behemoth bound by hundreds of thick iron chains, unable to move!
