Just as Shao Yitian was about to spare these people's lives, the voice of the God-level Invincible System rang out, saying, "Young man, the cultivation world is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. If you are too soft-hearted, you will not live long."
"If you release these people tonight, they'll tell their sects tomorrow that you've obtained a great magic weapon. Even with my system's help, you'll probably still be doomed!"
Upon hearing the system's words, Liu Xiaoyuan felt a cold sweat break out on his back. Yes, he was still too naive. These people had suffered humiliation here tonight, and they would definitely try everything to make him pay.
When they return to their sects, they'll tell their people that they've obtained a very valuable magic weapon. Magic weapons are incredibly tempting to cultivators, and some Foundation Establishment stage experts from these sects might come looking for them. That would put Liu Xiaoyuan in serious trouble.
After figuring this out, Liu Xiaoyuan made up his mind to keep all these people here.
This wasn't because Liu Xiaoyuan was ruthless, but rather a survival tactic. If he showed mercy here tonight, a cruel reality would await him later.
"Do you want me to spare your lives?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked with a smile as he looked at the group.
These people naturally nodded hurriedly and begged Liu Xiaoyuan to spare their lives.
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Alright, now you all kowtow to me thirty times."
Upon hearing this, these cultivators, though wishing they could kill Liu Xiaoyuan, had no choice but to comply, knowing their lives were in Liu Xiaoyuan's hands.
They were all thinking maliciously, "Kid, let you be smug for a while. Once we get back to the sect and find our senior brother, so what if you have the cultivation of the late stage of Qi Refining? We'll still make sure you die a horrible death."
"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for sparing our lives! We immediately kowtow and beg for mercy! We immediately kowtow and beg for mercy..." Upon hearing this, the cultivators immediately began to kowtow and beg for mercy.
Just as these cultivators were kowtowing and begging for mercy, Liu Xiaoyuan did not hesitate to activate his flying sword and began to slaughter them.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." The flying sword was like a life-reaping machine, instantly killing half of these unprepared cultivators.
The remaining half of the cultivators immediately got up to escape, but no matter how fast they were, they couldn't outrun the flying sword.
In less than half a minute, all of these cultivators had perished here.
Looking at the corpses of the cultivators on the ground, Liu Xiaoyuan destroyed the bodies to cover up the evidence. Then, he walked out of the tomb and left the construction site.
After leaving the construction site, Liu Xiaoyuan found a hotel to stay in.
Once inside the room, Liu Xiaoyuan took out the two bells. They were very beautiful and exquisitely crafted, with the bells being entirely golden in color, as if they were made entirely of gold.
After playing with the bell in his hand for a while, Liu Xiaoyuan put it into his storage bag.
Liu Xiaoyuan had a general understanding of the bell's function. The bell could affect a person's mind when it was rung, especially during battle. If a person was distracted, the consequences would be severe, ranging from injury to death.
Therefore, this bell can be considered a decent magic weapon. Of course, this magic weapon also has its drawbacks. After all, it is a low-grade magic artifact, so if it encounters a powerful Foundation Establishment cultivator, it will be helpless.
In addition, because the previous owner of these two bells was an evil cultivator, there is an evil aura inside them. If a cultivator with low cultivation level obtains the bells and loses his mind due to this evil aura, he will become a puppet of the bells.
Just like the cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining in the tomb, because his cultivation level was not high enough, he was misled by the evil energy in the bell, causing him to be impervious to pain and only know how to kill.
Liu Xiaoyuan is not yet capable of removing the evil energy from the bell, but once his cultivation reaches the Qi Refining realm, he believes he will be able to do so.
After putting the bell away, Liu Xiaoyuan went to sleep.
The next day, Liu Xiaoyuan woke up very early. For Liu Xiaoyuan now, getting up early every morning has become a habit. Unless he is too tired at night or for other reasons, Liu Xiaoyuan will get up very early.
Liu Xiaoyuan exercised in his hotel room, took a shower, and then went out for breakfast.
The hotel breakfast was quite good, and since Liu Xiaoyuan is now a martial artist, he had a rather large appetite.
Then, because of this, Liu Xiaoyuan was mocked by a woman in her thirties while having breakfast.
"Oh dear, what a country bumpkin! He's broke but still comes to stay in this fancy hotel and eats so much. Does he think he's a pig?" The woman spoke very harshly, her eyes fixed on Liu Xiaoyuan as she spoke.
Even a fool would know that this woman was talking about Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at the woman; she was dressed elegantly, but her foundation was a bit thick, and her mouth was too harsh, making her unpleasant.
"What are you looking at? You country bumpkin, I'm talking about you." The woman glared at Liu Xiaoyuan angrily when she saw that he still dared to look at her.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I come from the countryside, I'm a country bumpkin, but my large appetite seems to have nothing to do with you, right?"
The woman laughed smugly, "You country bumpkin, no matter how much you eat, it has nothing to do with me. But I just can't stand you, you country bumpkin. You have no money but you try to act rich by coming here to spend it. A hotel that costs tens of dollars a night is the best place for you to go!"
Liu Xiaoyuan picked up the soy milk in his hand and splashed it on the woman's face.
The soy milk was still quite hot, around 50 or 60 degrees Celsius. When it was splashed on the woman's face, she screamed in pain.
After splashing soy milk on the woman's face, Liu Xiaoyuan calmly took his breakfast and went back to the table to eat.
This woman has such a sharp tongue. Throwing soy milk at her was the lightest punishment. If it were Liu Xiaoyuan, a slap would definitely knock out a few of her teeth.
Those who were having breakfast at the hotel stopped eating when they saw this and all turned their attention to Liu Xiaoyuan.
Seeing Liu Xiaoyuan still calmly sitting here eating breakfast, my admiration for Liu Xiaoyuan is like a never-ending river.
The hotel staff immediately went to the woman's side, wiped the soy milk off her body, and asked her if she was alright.
