The blonde beauty standing at the back was Su Yao, while her two or three subordinates in front of her were covered in wounds and looked as if they would collapse at any moment.
"Hahaha, Pavilion Master Su, I advise you to carefully consider the current situation. We have much more powerful superiors above us, and you can't defeat them."
If you surrender now and obediently hand over everything behind you, I might spare your life.
After all, it would be a real shame for such a beautiful woman to die. Although I'm old, I'm still very energetic, hahaha..."
Facing Su Yao and the others was an old man with white hair and beard, who was looking at Su Yao with a greedy expression, sizing her up and down, and making threats.
Yan Quan recognized the old man; he was the timid old man among Deng Yuan's group of three.
"oh……?
"Is that so? This master of the sect never miscalculates. I said today is your death day, and it is your death day."
Su Yao noticed Yan Quan and the other man, her golden eyes lit up, and she coldly replied to the old man.
"I've even killed all the powerful figures around me. What tricks do you have up your sleeve to do anything to me?"
The old man straightened his back and took out a ruler with a dull luster.
"Why are there pseudo-divine artifacts projected everywhere now? Do you know someone named Nangong Xuan?"
Yan Quan suddenly spoke up. Miao Yutao, who had been observing the situation, was startled by Yan Quan's sudden revelation of their actions.
"oh?……
I was wondering who it was, and it turns out it was you...
Nangong Xuan? ...I vaguely remember him...
However, I am getting old and can't remember so many things. Maybe in a few days I'll even forget that today is your death day!
The old man chuckled eerily and ordered his henchmen to rush forward.
"The higher-ups originally ordered that you be killed, but I couldn't find you, and you delivered yourself to my door instead."
This kills two birds with one stone! I'm sure I'll be highly valued by those big shots after this, hahaha...
"I am the true ruler of this world!"
The old man spoke almost insanely.
"Hey, you're already so delirious even using a replica of an extraterrestrial projection, you shouldn't push yourself too hard."
Help me deal with these henchmen.
Yan Quan raised his sword and mocked, while simultaneously sending a telepathic message to Miao Yutao, asking her to eliminate the charging minions for him.
"Hmph, you're asking for death!"
"Get out of the way, I'll do it myself!"
Seeing Yan Quan carrying a sword and rushing towards him in a few blinks, he was not afraid but rather pleased.
His aged hand trembled slightly as he raised the small ruler, instantly freezing the surrounding space.
Then, without any haste, he raised his sword and slashed fiercely at the head of the black-clad man who was frozen in place.
"don't want!"
Hearing the heart-wrenching sounds coming from both sides almost simultaneously, the old man's smile became even more ferocious, and his sword fell swiftly.
However, to his and everyone else's surprise, the sword did not hit any solid object when it passed by; instead, it blurred the illusory image in front of them.
"Stupid thing."
Hearing the cold voice coming from behind him, the old man turned around in fear, but the next second, his vision began to spin, and he only realized his situation when his aged head fell into Yan Quan's hands.
"You...you, cough cough...you dare to kill me?"
Ugh!..."
The old man's body fell in front of him. Before he could finish speaking, Yan Quan immediately performed a soul search at maximum power, and then burned his body as soon as it was over.
"Tsk, you've never even seen their faces before? No wonder they're so useless..."
Before long, the strange space slowly disappeared. Yan Quan patted the dust off his hands and said slowly.
However, he only breathed a sigh of relief now. Ever since he used the Myriad Realms Ruler last time, he had discovered that he was no longer bound by this power that originated from the laws of change.
I tried it today and found that my deduction was correct.
"What are you standing there for? Kill the rest of them, don't let them escape."
Yan Quan spoke casually, it was unclear whether he was speaking to Miao Yutao behind him or to Su Yao and the others in front of him.
However, the others were naturally spared. With the biggest threat gone, the remaining people would crumble at the slightest touch.
"Wait, leave a few alive."
Su Yao crossed her arms and walked angrily toward Yan Quan.
"Why were you in such a hurry to kill him? What did you see during your soul search?"
Su Yao kept asking questions, blocking Yan Quan's path.
"Master Su, I've come to save you without holding a grudge, so please don't ask so many questions."
"You won't willingly give that thing up unless I teach you a lesson. Come on, give it to me now."
Yan Quan curled his lips slightly and reached out to tidy up Su Yao's slightly messy blonde hair.
Miao Yutao, who was standing to the side, also stepped forward, looking at Su Yao with hostility.
"What...you mean you were...from the very beginning..."
"Ah, ah, yes, it was all done to make you suffer from the very beginning."
Yan Quan nodded, bent down and casually touched Su Yao's slender waist, pulled off a golden token, and walked towards the door on his own.
"However... all the things you did that I didn't foresee were all done voluntarily by you, so you can't blame me for those."
Yan Quan waved his hand, speaking heartlessly without a care in the world. He then quickly opened the seal on the gate and took away the indistinct Myriad Realms Ruler inside.
Although he was tempted a few times when he saw other priceless treasures.
But he said that he was not a robber or thief, and that he should just take back what was rightfully his.
Next, it's time to take care of that last thing.
