Zu An raised an eyebrow and sized up the forty or fifty rogue cultivators around him: "You plan to use these people to deal with me?"
It seems the Prince of Dai and the Meng family don't understand me at all; no wonder they dare to take advantage of me like this.
Seeing so many powerful cultivators around him, the Prince of Dai immediately gained confidence: "Hehe, these people could drown you with a single spit from each of them. If you were to kowtow to me now, admit your mistakes, and become my disciple, perhaps I could forgive your offense."
"Kid, you've got some nerve. I don't think you need so many people to deal with you; I can handle it all by myself!" a fat, bald man sneered.
The other rogue cultivators were somewhat angry upon hearing his words, but they dared not show it.
This fat monk was a ruthless figure in the martial arts world. His cultivation level, at the peak of the ninth rank, was the highest among this group of rogue cultivators. Legend has it that he once fought against a grandmaster but managed to escape death.
From then on, his temper grew increasingly arrogant, and he completely disregarded cultivators of the same realm.
After arriving at the Prince of Dai's residence, his fiery and domineering temper caused many conflicts with the other guest retainers, and there were even instances of him robbing others of their cultivation resources.
However, due to his high cultivation level, the Prince's Mansion turned a blind eye to this, and the other rogue cultivators dared not speak out against him.
He had his reasons for stepping forward this time, because he felt he was about to break through to the Grandmaster level. The resources required to break through from the peak of the ninth rank to the Grandmaster level were beyond what he could currently afford.
Therefore, he needs to make a name for himself in front of the Prince of Dai. If he can achieve great merit, the Prince of Dai and his wife will be happy to reward him with something that will be enough for him to break through.
Once you become a Grandmaster, the treatment and future prospects you receive are completely different from those of cultivators from the first to the ninth rank.
"You're alone?" Zuan was somewhat surprised. He casually grabbed something, and a black vortex appeared in his palm.
The fat monk felt an irresistible suction force pull him in, and he was instantly drawn to the front of him.
He wanted to resist, but his entire body was surging with energy uncontrollably, making even something as simple as wielding a knife seem impossible for him now.
My whole body ached and I could no longer control myself and I knelt on the ground.
Zu An placed his hand on top of his head and used the "Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique," absorbing all of his internal energy in the blink of an eye.
Upon closer inspection, I noticed that my progress bar for level 74 had increased slightly, but the change was barely noticeable unless you looked closely.
With a hint of disdain, he withdrew his hand, wiped the hair oil off it, looked at the fat monk lying at his feet like a dead dog, then glanced at the other cultivators and asked with some surprise, "Has he always been this brave?"
I thought this guy had some high cultivation level, but it turns out he's just a mere ninth-rank cultivator. I don't know how he dared to do that.
As he looked at them, all the rogue cultivators involuntarily took a step back, their faces showing some fear.
The scene they just witnessed was too shocking. The most powerful Fat Monk was killed in the blink of an eye, and the key point was that they couldn't even see how the opponent made the move.
How can a peak ninth-rank cultivator be drawn from such a distance? What kind of technique is this?
A look of panic flashed across the Prince of Dai's face as well. He retreated and hid among the guards beside him, saying, "If we all attack together, he can't defeat us alone, no matter how strong he is."
He suddenly remembered that back in the Prince of Jin's mansion, his protector, Elder Chen, seemed to have been absorbed by that Grand Commander in the same way, and their cultivation methods seemed to be somewhat similar.
However, he didn't have time to think about it at the moment, fearing that the other party would suddenly make a move and pull him in. So he took several steps back again, and only when he knew that he was protected by guards in three layers in front of him did he feel a little relieved.
Seeing that the rogue cultivators didn't move, the Prince of Dai grew anxious and shouted, "If you can kill this fiend, you will all be rewarded with ten thousand spirit stones. In addition, the royal palace will cover all your cultivation resources for the next year. Whoever contributes the most will be responsible for your cultivation resources for the next ten years, no, twenty years!"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the rogue cultivators in the arena immediately turned red.
You should know why these dignified cultivators would come to the royal palace to serve as guest ministers and be driven by others. It's because they have no power or influence, no family background, and this is the only way they can obtain the corresponding cultivation resources.
If we could obtain cultivation resources for the next twenty years, everyone would be completely free.
With these massive resources, they can cultivate to a higher realm and achieve complete freedom, no longer having to be someone's dog.
Even if it's only a year's worth of cultivation resources and those ten thousand spirit stones, it's still a huge fortune, enough for many of them to advance a realm.
There's no shortage of daring people in this world, and with such an outrageous reward, someone finally couldn't resist:
"Don't be afraid of him! He's just one person. If we all attack together, even a grandmaster would be killed on the spot!"
In this world, the advantage of numbers is still quite obvious.
Once the army is in formation, it can fight against the most elite masters.
These independent cultivators were all far more skilled than those in the army. In addition, the royal palace had provided some joint formations, which, although not as imposing as the large formations in the army, were still extraordinary.
The combined attack of so many people was enough to blast this person into dust.
"Don't give him a chance to make a move!"
Clearly, the scene of Zaun instantly killing Fat Monk had left a huge psychological scar on everyone.
So they all unleashed their strongest attack spells at Zu'an without prior agreement.
Even those who hesitated for a moment gritted their teeth and joined the siege army upon seeing this.
In an instant, countless rays of light struck and shot towards the person in the middle.
Seeing this, the Prince of Dai finally smiled. Being attacked by so many experts at the same time, he probably wouldn't even leave behind any trash.
Zu An openly came to our door, and so many people witnessed it, so I killed him on the spot. Even the Crown Princess couldn't say anything about it.
